Old Man Duan Actually Made a Move

This instant, Shen Fan finally realized that Old Man Duan had also made a move.

His action, without a doubt, was clearly because of the humiliation Shen Fan suffered during the day.

"Old Man Duan!" Shen Fan felt a lump in his throat, and his eyes instantly welled up with tears.

"There's someone else?" Zhao Erhu looked to the side in surprise, his eyes meeting Shen Fan's.

In the darkness, he didn't recognize Shen Fan, but Shen Fan didn't hesitate at all, opening the Universe Pouch and tossing it out.

Two figures grew larger against the wind, and after landing in the blink of an eye, they transformed into beast-like figures, baring their fangs and claws as they pounced towards Zhao Erhu.

"There's backup?" Zhao Erhu was shocked.

"Someone..."

But before he could call out for help, he was knocked to the ground by the two Corpse Puppets Shen Fan brought.

"Dragon Grasp!"

Under Shen Fan's control, Baishitong's hand ruthlessly reached towards Zhao Erhu's chest.

This Dragon Grasp, like a black tiger snatching its heart, carried a fierce wind as it pierced through Zhao Erhu's chest cavity, tearing out his heart.

Zhao Erhu's cultivation was only at the 4th level of the Qi Refining Stage. Although he was an Outer Sect disciple, Baishitong, after being refined into a Corpse Puppet, was also at the 4th level of the Qi Refining Stage.

He was surrounded and killed by three Corpse Puppets, instantly annihilated.

"Wind Blade Art!"

To ensure success, Shen Fan once again controlled Biaozi to cast the Wind Blade Art. A sharp wind blade flashed like lightning, directly severing Zhao Erhu's head.

Watching the head roll, Shen Fan immediately collected the two Corpse Puppets into the Universe Pouch. The whole thing happened in the blink of an eye.

Old Man Duan on the side was completely dumbfounded. By the time he reacted, Zhao Erhu's head had already hit the ground.

"Let's go!" Shen Fan grabbed Old Man Duan and immediately ran outside.

Old Man Duan then reacted and hurriedly controlled his Corpse Puppet to follow.

But the commotion here had already roused all the handyman disciples at the Spirit Field.

The Spirit Field had not only Zhao Erhu as a manager, but also two Outer Sect disciples as assistants.

Just as Shen Fan and Old Man Duan rushed out of the courtyard, they saw the other two Outer Sect disciples from the Spirit Field rushing over.

"You go left, I go right!" Shen Fan shouted in a low voice, directly crushing the Fire Poison Demon Core he had prepared long ago.

In an instant, Fire Poison spiritual power filled his entire body, making him exude a scorching aura.

"Who's there?"

The two had only heard the commotion and rushed over, so they didn't know what had happened inside.

Seeing someone rushing out, they weren't prepared for battle at all.

"Crimson flames as guide, burn away all evil!"

Shen Fan used a mantra that only he could hear, unleashing the Flame Serpent Art.

"Boom—!"

The fire serpent roared out, resembling a fire dragon roaring out in the dark night, illuminating the entire Spirit Field.

At this moment, all the disciples who had rushed to the Spirit Field could see clearly.

"Fifth-tier spell, Fire Dragon Art!!"

The two Outer Sect disciples who had rushed over widened their eyes in horror.

But before they could react, the person directly facing Shen Fan was swallowed by the fire serpent.

This Flame Serpent Art, enhanced with the Fire Poison Demon Core, exploded directly in front of the opponent, and its power was unimaginable. The person was instantly burned black.

On the other side, Old Man Duan quickly moved his hands, controlling the Corpse Puppet to jump out from behind him, landing directly on the person's head.

Then, opening its bloody mouth, it pried open the skull and devoured the brain, a scene of extreme gore.

After easily dealing with the two, Shen Fan and Old Man Duan looked at the bewildered handyman disciples who had rushed over, bypassing them and quickly heading down the mountain, disappearing into the vast night.

"Catch!"

On the way down the mountain, Shen Fan had already planned out alternative strategies to deal with unexpected situations.

His eyes sharpened, and he threw the Universe Pouch towards Old Man Duan without hesitation.

Originally, his plan was to quietly return along the same route after killing Zhao Erhu.

At that time, he only needed to hide the Universe Pouch in a secret place. Even if someone became suspicious, with his current strength, it would be difficult for others to find out.

However, things were unpredictable, and the current situation no longer allowed him to act according to the original plan.

During the day, the conflict between him and Zhao Erhu had caused a lot of noise.

Now, three Outer Sect disciples lay dead on the spot, one of whom was even a manager from Servant Peak.

This matter would surely cause a huge uproar within the Heavenly Xuan Sect.

Once the Law Enforcement Hall intervened in the investigation, the traces of the Corpse Puppet's attack would inevitably be revealed.

If that happened, once the news of the Nether Corpse Sect's invasion spread, the Inner Sect would be shaken.

And the conflict between him and Zhao Erhu would undoubtedly make him the prime suspect.

Once the investigation started, even if he hid the Universe Pouch in the storage room, it would be hard to guarantee it wouldn't be discovered.

Thinking of this, Shen Fan steeled himself. The only way right now was to dump everything in the Universe Pouch on Old Man Duan.

As a disciple of the Spirit Field, Old Man Duan would definitely be investigated along with all the servant disciples after this incident.

And if it was exposed that Old Man Duan cultivated the Nine Nether Corpse Refinement Art and hid a Corpse Puppet under his bed, he would definitely have a hard time escaping responsibility.

"Child, the Spirit Field is no longer a place to stay for long. Leave with me!"

Old Man Duan took the Universe Pouch with a puzzled look and earnestly advised.

"Old Man Duan, I can't leave yet."

Shen Fan took a deep breath and said slowly, "This is Baishitong's Universe Pouch. It contains the corpses of Baishitong and another person. I've already refined them into puppets. Besides that, there are hundreds of Spirit Stones, spirit rice, Demon Cores, and the techniques and spells left behind by Baishitong."

The swift wind whistled past their ears, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived at the fork in the road at the foot of the mountain.

"Old Man Duan, take these things and leave quickly. I'm sorry for deceiving you before, but I didn't expect you to stand up for me. Old man, go far away. With these things, you should be able to escape this calamity!"

As he spoke, Shen Fan pointed his sword at the Universe Pouch, instantly erasing the divine sense imprint on it.

Then, he bowed deeply to Old Man Duan.

"How can I leave when my great revenge is not yet avenged!"

"If fate allows, we'll meet again in the martial world!"

At this moment, a gratified smile appeared on Old Man Duan's face.

In the dark night, Shen Fan didn't see the tears in his eyes.

"Kid, after this farewell, I'm afraid it will be difficult to meet again. I cultivate the Corpse Refining Art and plan to go and join the Nether Corpse Sect. Next time we meet, I'm afraid we'll be on opposite sides," Old Man Duan said with emotion.

Shen Fan smiled upon hearing this, "Don't worry, even so, I won't attack you. Besides, you're no match for me at all!"

"That's right!"

Old Man Duan sighed, "You've been hiding it from me for so long, kid. Your flame spell is really powerful!"

As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up.

"This is not a place to stay for long! Old Man Duan, take care!"

After Shen Fan finished speaking, he resolutely turned and left.

He had to rush back to the Waste Elixir Chamber as soon as possible, because he was the prime suspect in this incident. If he didn't return in time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Wait!" Old Man Duan suddenly stopped Shen Fan.

"Kid, can you call me Grandpa?"

"Get lost, trying to take advantage of me!" Shen Fan scolded with a smile.

"Hehe!" Old Man Duan smiled and said nothing more.

Shen Fan turned to leave, but after taking a few steps, he suddenly turned back again.

Then, he knelt down on both knees to Old Man Duan and said solemnly, "Grandpa Duan! If you and I can both safely get through this calamity, in the future, I will take care of you in your old age!"

As he spoke, Shen Fan kowtowed three times heavily to Old Man Duan.

Then, he immediately got up and disappeared into the vast night.

"Haha... Haha..."

In the dark night, Old Man Duan let out a frantic laugh, his figure gradually moving away.
