The atmosphere in the venue was stagnant. Dozens of gazes were like invisible shackles, firmly nailed to Fang Han. Greed, suspicion, and fear were intertwined, and the air seemed to have become thick and heavy.

The strong scent of the medicine, the sharp sword marks and scratch marks on the ground, all stimulated everyone's nerves.

Azure Profound Sect True Disciple's identity is a layer of protection, but in the face of Millennium Ginseng, a spiritual creature from heaven and earth that can drive people crazy, this layer of protection becomes fragile.

"This young hero."

A middle-aged man wearing Brocade Robe, with a fair complexion and a somewhat cunning look in his eyes stepped forward.

He cupped his hands, with a smile on his face that looked kind but was actually pressing.

"It's not that we don't believe in Young Hero, it's just that this matter is of great importance. Millennium Ginseng appears here, and it just so happens that Young Hero is here..."

"This may cause misunderstanding. Could you please make it easy for me, young hero, to let us check your luggage? If it is true as young hero said, Millennium Ginseng has escaped, we will apologize immediately and will never bother you again."

As soon as this statement came out, it immediately attracted a chorus of agreement.

"Yes! Look at the package!"

"It's all nonsense, let us see and find out!"

"Azure Profound Sect's great disciple, I'm sure you won't be stingy with such trivial matters to prove your innocence, right?"

The noise gradually rose, and the crowd faintly moved forward, almost ready to rob someone if they disagreed.

Fang Han glanced at the middle-aged man, then slowly looked around at the people around him, his eyes calm and calm.

But beneath this calmness, an icy chill quietly spread like a tide.

As Azure Profound Sect True Disciple, he enjoys the benefits and preferential treatment as a disciple of the Azure Profound Sect, so he is naturally obliged to protect the face of the Azure Profound Sect.

If he gives in easily today and spreads the word, not only will he be disgraced, but Azure Profound Sect's reputation will also be damaged.

What's more, if he hands over the package easily, others will think there is something wrong with him.

Thinking that he got Millennium Ginseng, he hid Millennium Ginseng.

"Check my luggage?"

Fang Han The corners of his mouth curled up in a very faint, yet piercingly cold arc. His voice was not high, but it clearly overcame the noise in the venue.

"Only you?"

His gaze was like two ice picks, piercing straight into the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's face changed. He felt the contempt and murderous intention in Fang Han's words, and his heart filled with anger.

But the other party's silver-patterned green robe and the faint aura of danger made him suppress his anger and shouted with a stern expression.

"Boy, don't give me a toast and be fined with wine! We are waiting for a friendly discussion to give Azure Profound Sect face! If you don't have any evil intentions, why bother..."

Before he finished speaking, Fang Han moved!

Leaving the package where it was, Fang Han showed no signs, and his figure suddenly blurred like a ghost.

<Windcloud Escape> After being used, an almost invisible afterimage was left on the spot.

The real body has been shot at the middle-aged man like an arrow from the string.

The speed is beyond imagination!

In an instant, the distance of more than ten feet was crossed, and the sound of Flowing Wind Sword Qingyue's sword being unsheathed rang out.

A cyan sword light that was condensed to the extreme and as sharp as tearing through the void went straight to the middle-aged man's throat.

"So fast!"

"Be careful!"

There were exclamations everywhere, no one expected that Fang Han would dare to take the initiative when surrounded by dozens of powerful warriors.

The middle-aged man who was a sixth-grade warrior was even more horrified. He never expected Fang Han to be so decisive and ruthless.

In a hurry, he only had time to lift Golden Saber in his hand upwards, trying to block the fatal sword, and at the same time he retreated violently.

However, is Fang Han's sword so easy to resist?

<Void-Sundering Nine Swords> The power of Minor Success Stage, combined with the majestic Internal Qi in the middle stage of the fifth grade, the speed and fierceness of this sword far exceed the reaction limit of a middle-aged man.

"Tsk--!"

The sword light poured down like mercury, penetrating the hastily formed sword curtain with incomparable precision, and stabbed the middle-aged man in the throat.

The middle-aged man's retreating figure suddenly froze, his eyes widened, and his face was filled with extreme horror and disbelief.

The Golden Saber in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, his hands tightly covering his throat, and blood gushing out from between his fingers like a fountain.

"Uh... ho ho..."

He made a vague roaring sound from his throat, and his body fell limply to the ground. He twitched twice and then became silent again.

A late-level sixth-grade warrior who was considered a figure in one party was unable to even take a single blow from Fang Han and was killed instantly.

Quiet!

Deathly silence!

The originally noisy crowd suddenly fell silent.

Everyone was shocked by this sudden, cruel and decisive sword strike.

One after another, they looked at Fang Han, who was standing with a sword in his hand, with a cold face, and then looked at the middle-aged man on the ground, whose throat was bleeding, and who was already dead. A chill went straight from the soles of his feet to the sky.

Some people with lower cultivation level and quick thinking turned pale and subconsciously stepped back for fear of becoming the next target.

Fang Han slowly sheathed his sword and glanced at everyone with a cold gaze. Anyone who was touched by his gaze felt a chill in their hearts and avoided their sight.

"Who else wants to check Fang's luggage?"

His voice was calm, but it carried an unquestionable aura of majesty and murder.

The crowd was in commotion, and no one dared to answer for a while.

Fang Han declared his attitude in the most direct and bloody way.

However, the temptation of Millennium Ginseng was too great. After a short period of silence, greed finally overcame fear.

"Pack, just grab his parcel!"

I don't know who shouted, and suddenly seven or eight figures blinded by greed rushed towards the gray luggage Fang Han placed on the ground like hungry wolves.

They thought very simply, no matter how strong Fang Han is, there is only one person, and everyone swarmed him. After that, even if Azure Profound Sect wanted to pursue it, they didn't know who to pursue.

"Get away! It's mine!"

"Let go!"

The few people who rushed towards the package started fighting first, with their fists, feet and weapons intersecting, making a banging sound.

In the chaos, a thin man with extremely fast movements saw the opportunity, grabbed the bag in his hand, turned around and wanted to get into the dense forest.

"Put it down!"

Fang Han's eyes flashed coldly, and he tried to catch up.

Just as he moved, he was entangled by two other warriors and swung their swords, forcing him to block with his sword.

And the thin man who grabbed the package couldn't run far, and was immediately stopped by other people with red eyes, and he was immediately under siege.

"Stab--!"

In the chaotic fight, someone's weapon pierced the luggage, and the gray fabric of ordinary quality was suddenly torn open with a large hole.

The contents inside suddenly spilled out--

Some dry food, a water bag, a few ordinary jade bottles containing affordable healing medicine and Detoxification Pill, a few changes of clothes, some loose silver... and a detailed map of the county.

Apart from that, there is nothing else.

There was no golden light as expected, no refreshing medicinal fragrance, and no Millennium Ginseng that I dreamed of!

The fighting stopped instantly.

Everyone was stunned, staring at the extremely ordinary items on the ground. The enthusiasm and greed on their faces faded like the tide, replaced by shock and disappointment.

Really... no?

Could it be that what Azure Profound Sect said was true? Millennium Ginseng really escaped the moment he took action?

Various speculations flashed through everyone's minds, but they couldn't help but believe the ironclad fact in front of them - the empty suitcase.

The suspicious eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a hint of embarrassment and regret.

For something that doesn't exist at all, I offended a Azure Profound Sect True Disciple... This is simply...

Fang Han saw the changes in everyone's expressions, and sneered in his heart, but his face was instantly filled with "outrageous anger".

"You bastard! How dare you destroy my luggage!"

He let out an angry roar, his eyes flashed with murderous intent, and Flowing Wind Sword turned into a ray of cyan lightning, striking at the few warriors who had just scrambled for the package and were stunned by disappointment at the moment.

The highest cultivation of these people is only Sixth-Rank Early Stage, and the lowest is only Seventh Rank. How can they be the opponents of Fang Han under "fury"?

Wherever the sword light passes, it's like chopping melons and vegetables!

"Poof! Poof! Poof!"

Screams rang out one after another, and blood splattered.

But in the blink of an eye, the five or six people who had just participated in the fight for the package fell into a pool of blood, dead on the spot!

Cruel! Decisive! No mercy!

This bloody scene completely stunned everyone else.

Those who originally had some thoughts were completely turned off at this moment. Their eyes were full of fear when they looked at Fang Han. They lowered their heads one after another, not daring to look at him.

Fang Han snorted coldly, his gaze sweeping across the audience like a knife, no one dared to say a word.

Only then did he lean down and expressionlessly pick up the dry food, water bags, Danyao and other items scattered on the ground one by one.

He touched the corpses of the warriors he had killed, tore off a half-new package from the body of a warrior he had just killed, stuffed these items indiscriminately, and carried them on his back.

During the whole process, no one dared to stop it, and no one dared to speak out.

Fang Han gave everyone a final cold glance, said no more, flashed his figure, cast <Windcloud Escape>, and swept into the depths of the dense forest like a wisp of blue smoke before disappearing.

It wasn't until his figure completely disappeared that the tense atmosphere in the venue suddenly relaxed. Everyone looked at each other, and they all saw fear and happiness on each other's faces.

"Damn it, all this hard work was in vain!"

"I thought... Oh!"

"This Azure Profound Sect evil star is too ruthless..."

"Let's go quickly, it's not a good place to stay for a long time!"

Everyone was talking a lot, and soon they dispersed, leaving only a few gradually cold corpses, telling the story of the greed and bloodshed just now.

Fang Han did not leave Cloud Mist Mountain Range directly.

He knew very well that even though his suspicions had just been cleared, he might not be able to deceive all interested people.

If you leave immediately, you will appear guilty.

So, he continued to stay in the mountains for a few days, pretending not to give in, and searched Falling Eagle Ravine and the surrounding areas carefully.

He even deliberately took photos with other searching warriors several times, and each time he showed just the right amount of disappointment and annoyance.

A few days later, he finally gave up and headed out to the mountains, as if he was ready to return to the sect.

One day later, he was far away from the Cloud Mist Mountain Range and entered a relatively gentle hilly area.

The official road is faintly visible ahead.

But at this moment, he suddenly paused and seemed to notice something.
