Zhou Feng's strength was merely at the Spirit Sword Realm.

Moreover, he was on the weaker end of the Spirit Sword Realm.

The Heavenly Imperial Sword Armor could defend against his attacks with ease.

Su Fan could just stand there without moving, and he still wouldn't be able to kill him!

"Die, die, die!"

Zhou Feng felt he had suffered a humiliating insult!

To be held by the neck and mocked as a little chick?

He had never suffered such humiliation in his entire life!

Especially since it was coming from a guy everyone mocked as a piece of trash!

He swung his sword frantically, bombarding Su Fan incessantly!

"That's right, just like that, put some effort into it! Did you not eat today?"

"You little chick, you really are too useless!"

Su Fan said mockingly.

He gripped the back of Zhou Feng's neck, spinning him from left to right, then from right to left.

He let Zhou Feng attack him as wildly as he wanted!

After a long while!

Zhou Feng broke down.

"Ahhh... stay away from me!"

"What kind of monster are you? Why won't you just die!"

Sweating profusely with disheveled hair, Zhou Feng had completely collapsed!

He regretted it!

He shouldn't have come to kill someone for the sake of those treasures.

How the hell was this guy a piece of trash?

He was a monster, right?

An unkillable monster, that's what he was!

Slap! Slap!

Su Fan swung both hands, landing two slaps on his face, instantly causing Zhou Feng's cheeks to swell and blood to spill from the corners of his mouth as he looked at him with a face full of terror.

At this moment, Zhou Feng really did look a bit like a frightened little chick!

"I ask, you answer, understand?"

Su Fan gripped Zhou Feng's neck, spun him around, and after returning him to his original position, stared at him.

Zhou Feng nodded, his face filled with terror.

"Who sent you to kill me?"

"I don't know!"

Su Fan sneered and tightened his grip, making Zhou Feng's neck crackle as if it might snap at any moment.

"You little chick, you aren't being honest, are you?"

Zhou Feng broke down, "I really don't know! He..."

"Then tell me everything you do know!"

"Yes, yes!"

Zhou Feng didn't hold anything back and told him everything, point by point.

This included the matter of the man in the black robe asking him to pass a message to Tang Duan.

"I've told you everything I know, can you let me go now?"

Zhou Feng trembled, looking just like an overly terrified chick.

Su Fan narrowed his eyes, his heart filled with raging fury.

The man in the black robe, is it?

Just wait, I'll kill you sooner or later!

The other party was very likely a powerhouse at the King Realm, an existence comparable to the Void Sword Realm.

Although Su Fan asked himself if he could kill the opponent by using forbidden techniques with his current strength, it was still a bit risky.

Besides, the King Realm was only Zhou Feng's guess.

"No rush, let him jump around for a few more days!"

Su Fan, who was well-versed in the art of lying low, would naturally never do anything risky.

For now, he would stay hidden at the Cliff of Reflection to improve his strength!

Patting Zhou Feng's face, Su Fan put on a kind smile and said, "He wants you to deliver a message to Tang Duan, right?"

"Y-yes, that's right!"

Zhou Feng nodded tremblingly.

"No problem, I will let you go and deliver that message to Tang Duan!"

Su Fan's smile was as refreshing as a spring breeze.

He looked like a truly kind-hearted person.

Zhou Feng felt a wave of relief in his heart.

His eyes even welled up with tears.

Su Fan was a good man!

He wasn't going to kill him!

"Go on then, go deliver the message to Tang Duan!"

Su Fan reached out and patted Zhou Feng on the head.

"Thank you, thank you!"

Zhou Feng looked moved to tears.

"It's only right!"

Su Fan said with a chuckle, "Let me give you a hand."

Zhou Feng hurriedly said, "No need, no need, I can go by myself!"

"It is necessary, it is necessary. I'm worried about you going alone!"

Heaven-Shattering Sword Intent manifested on Su Fan's palm.

He gently tapped it onto Zhou Feng's head.

Zhou Feng's eyes widened, his body stiffened, and all signs of life vanished from him instantly!

Su Fan grabbed Zhou Feng by the back of his neck, walked to the edge of the Cliff of Reflection, and threw his corpse directly into the abyss below.

This was also the same spot where he had thrown Tang Duan's corpse.

"I, Su Fan, am a man of my word. Since I said I would let you go deliver a message to Tang Duan, I would never break my promise!"

Su Fan clapped his hands together and said with a serious expression.

The abyss beneath the Cliff of Reflection was shrouded in clouds and mist, filled with unknown dangers.

It was rumored that even the Sword Master had never set foot into the depths of the abyss.

If I get the chance, I should go down and take a look. Who knows, there might be some secrets down there?

Su Fan thought to himself.

After dealing with Zhou Feng, Su Fan returned to the Forbidden Art Graveyard.

The man in the black robe, is it? Just you wait!

Su Fan suppressed the anger burning in his heart.

The last time, the one who came to kill him was Tang Duan, a cultivator at the Profound Sword Realm.

This time, the one who came to kill him was Zhou Feng, a cultivator at the Spirit Sword Realm.

Next time, would they send someone from the Void Sword Realm?

No matter how many come, I will kill them all!

Su Fan thought coldly.

The Void Sword Realm was considered high-ranking within Sword God Mountain.

Generally speaking, the cost to hire someone at the Void Sword Realm was exorbitant.

Would the other party really be willing to pay such a high price just to hire a Void Sword Realm expert to kill him?

Why on earth did they want to kill him?

Su Fan pondered.

Breaking off the engagement, being expelled from the Gan Royal Estate, assassins...

Is there some hidden reason behind all this?

Su Fan asked himself; he hadn't offended anyone.

Aside from his guess about some unknown rival in love who admired Wu Aoxue, there shouldn't be any faction that would want him dead.

"Wu Aoxue has already broken off the engagement. Even if there is some melodramatic rival, it shouldn't be to the point of wanting me dead, right?"

"However, there are always idiots in this world, so it's hard to say."

Su Fan suddenly thought of another possibility.

That was whether it had anything to do with his mother?

The only reason he, a piece of trash, was able to enter into a marriage contract with Wu Aoxue, the eldest daughter of the Tianwu Royal Estate, was because of his mother.

However, his mother had gone out when he was six years old and died in an accident.

Forget it, thinking too much is useless. Once my strength is great enough, everything will naturally be known.

Su Fan did not continue to dwell on it.

Regardless of what hidden secrets lay behind this.

As long as he was strong enough and possessed the power to be invincible under the heavens, he would naturally find the answer.

He looked at the rows of the Forbidden Technique Tomb.

"For offense, there is the Heaven-Shattering Sword; for defense, there is the Heavenly Imperial Sword Armor. That is not enough!"

Su Fan wanted to arm himself in every aspect, leaving no weaknesses or flaws.

Attack, defense, speed, and so on!

Su Fan walked toward a large tomb.

"Forbidden Technique, Tomb of the Nine Heavens Sword Evasion."

If it were not explicitly stated that this was a forbidden technique, one would never think it was one just by looking at the name of the cultivation method.

Nine Heavens Sword Evasion!

The forbidden technique Su Fan was going to cultivate next was this one!

Just by looking at the name, one could tell that this was a movement-type forbidden technique.

Generally speaking, such forbidden techniques were used for escaping.

But for Su Fan.

This was for hunting down enemies!

He wanted to make it so that his enemies could not even escape, letting them experience what it meant to feel despair!

"It won't be too late to cultivate it after breaking through to the Spirit Sword Realm!"

Su Fan did not open the forbidden technique tomb immediately.

Instead, he prepared to wait until he broke through to the Spirit Sword Realm before cultivating this forbidden technique.

The higher the realm, the different insights one might have during cultivation.

Finally.

It was time to use the Fate-Defying Heavenly Ladder to raise his realm again.

Su Fan sat cross-legged.

"To break through to the Spirit Sword Realm, one needs to make the Mystic Sword within the body condense spirituality..."

He cultivated forbidden techniques, and the method he used to raise his realm was also a forbidden technique; it belonged to a simple and brutal style of cultivation.

Normally, raising one's realm would not allow for the condensation of spirituality.

"As usual, I need a few epiphanies to figure out how to condense a Spirit Sword while using a forbidden technique to raise my realm!"

Su Fan directly cast the Heavenly Enlightenment Technique and began to enter an epiphany.
