Chapter 204: One Punch Kills a Mid-stage Solar Radiance!

On the other side, Gu Fan held the storage pouch in his hand. With a slight prick of his divine sense, the restriction on it instantly dissipated.

He then swept his divine sense through the contents, quickly spotting a treasure box made of jade that emitted Mysterious Power in a corner.

Opening it, he saw the Tianhai Spirit Ginseng lying quietly inside.

Gu Fan sensed it with his divine sense and noticed that each time it touched the item, his soul would ripple slightly.

This proved that the item indeed had a reaction to the soul.

“Looks like this is definitely the one. This time, I really have to thank that idiot Jia Bing… heh.”

Gu Fan had planned all of this long ago.

Once he realized the incident was targeted at him, he had already come up with a countermeasure.

Go up the arena? No, no, no!

That was too troublesome and would give the enemy time to prepare.

If he won the first round against an early-stage Solar Radiance, they could arrange mid or even late-stage Solar Radiance experts for the later rounds. Though such experts weren’t common even in Tianyun City, with the Jia Family’s power, they could still manage it.

So to avoid that, Gu Fan decided not to go up at all—he would just sit back and watch.

Then, at the end, whoever won, he would kill them and take the prize. Though the winner would most likely be someone arranged by Jia Bing, they still had to put on a show for the crowd. They couldn’t just take the reward and stay hidden in the Jia Residence, right?

As expected, that was exactly what the enemy did.

Right after the event ended, they left Jia Residence in a hurry, most likely to take a short trip and then return the Tianhai Spirit Ginseng.

Unfortunately, Gu Fan had already prepared. The moment that Solar Radiance cultivator stepped out of the Jia Residence gate, he struck with full force and killed him with one punch.

Then, he took the Tianhai Spirit Ginseng and made a clean getaway.

Why bother with something as troublesome as an arena battle, wasting time and energy, when it could be solved with a single punch?

Gu Fan clapped his hands in satisfaction, closed the jade box, and tossed it into his own storage pouch.

Then he turned in the direction of the Qiu Family, ready to return quickly.

Just then, a divine sense locked onto him from afar.

Gu Fan immediately frowned and turned to see several black shadows rapidly approaching.

“Looks like Jia Bing still hasn’t given up… heh…”

Gu Fan simply stood still, waiting calmly for the group to arrive.

A few breaths later, an old man with white hair descended with Jia Bing and two other subordinates.

Jia Bing stared at Gu Fan with a gloomy face. Seeing that Gu Fan looked completely calm without the slightest panic irritated him even more.

“You’re not running?”

Gu Fan sneered and replied:

“Why should I run?”

Jia Bing was momentarily stunned, then glanced around to confirm there were no ambushes nearby.

“Heh, just bluffing!”

“Gu Fan, hand over what you shouldn’t have taken, and I’ll leave you a complete corpse!”

Gu Fan ignored him. A mere mid-stage Divine Moon like Jia Bing wasn’t even worth his attention.

Seeing this, Jia Bing was burning with rage.

How dare he look down on him!

“Elder Xu! If you please!”

The white-haired old man stroked his beard with a confident smile and said:

“Young Master Jia, please wait a moment. I’ll take down this thief for you right away!”

At this moment, Gu Fan spoke.

“Thief? Ridiculous. The Tianhai Spirit Ginseng no longer belongs to your Jia Family. Even if revenge is to be taken, it should be by the family of the one it was robbed from. What does it have to do with your Jia Family?”

The white-robed elder only chuckled.

Meanwhile, Jia Bing’s guards couldn’t help but speak up on behalf of their master, their faces full of disdain and ridicule:

“How could someone like you ever be worthy of the Tianhai Spirit Ginseng!”

“Besides, our Young Master already gave you a chance. You, this piece of trash, actually clung to Fairy Hanyan’s residence and refused to leave. If you don’t deserve to die, who does?”

At this point, Jia Bing raised his hand slightly, interrupting the flattery of his subordinates.

“Gu Fan, I told you last time at the Qiu Residence: leave, or die.”

“So many days have passed, and it seems you haven’t taken my words seriously. In that case, there’s no other way—I’ll have to send you to the afterlife! Elder Xu, do it!”

“Hahaha, rest assured, Young Master Jia. Leave it to me!”

In the next moment, the white-haired elder’s robes surged!

Like an immortal crane spreading its wings, he lunged forward.

As the Mysterious Power erupted, the pressure belonging to a mid-stage Solar Radiance Realm expert swept across the area, even causing Jia Bing and the others behind him to struggle for breath!

“Hahaha! Elder Xu is at the peak of the mid-stage Solar Radiance Realm, just one step away from breaking through to the late stage. Let’s see how you deal with that! Elder Xu, go easy on him—leave him a breath. I want to torture him for three days and three nights!”

Jia Bing laughed loudly, as if he could already see Gu Fan dying on the spot.

Ever since being scolded by Qiu Hanyan at the Qiu Family that day, he had seen Gu Fan as a thorn in his side.

If it hadn’t been for him, how would he have lost face in front of Qiu Hanyan?

But Gu Fan had been staying inside the Qiu Residence the whole time, which had frustrated him immensely!

Jia Bing was not the kind of person who could wait even a moment to kill, but now wasn’t bad either.

Being able to witness Gu Fan being killed with his own eyes brought immense satisfaction to his heart.

Thinking of this, Jia Bing’s expression turned slightly manic!

But all of this was utterly ridiculous in Gu Fan’s eyes.

Seeing the white-haired elder charge at him, he almost felt like laughing!

Just a mere mid-stage Solar Radiance Realm dares to get close to him!

In the next moment, under Jia Bing’s extremely excited gaze, Gu Fan casually threw out a punch.

The punch appeared soft and weak, but at the moment it was thrown, Tenfold Strength activated!

Immediately, the faint sound of an elephant’s cry echoed.

Crack!

Boom!

Then a figure flew back with a swoosh, crashing heavily in front of Jia Bing.

The once high-spirited white-haired elder now looked like a dead dog, blood pouring from his mouth, Mysterious Power leaking from all around his body.

This was the sign of shattered meridians and a collapsing Qi Sea!

Jia Bing’s face turned pale, and he instinctively took a step back.

Then, with a furious expression, he stepped forward and viciously kicked the white-haired elder.

“Trash! Useless! My Jia Family raised you for so long for nothing! You can’t even beat a Divine Moon Realm cultivator!”

The white-haired elder, already severely wounded and on the verge of death, was directly killed on the spot after a few more kicks.

At that moment, Gu Fan stepped forward with a light chuckle, looking at the remaining three in front of him and said:

“Young Master Jia, I believe it’s time we settled our account.”

Unexpectedly, Jia Bing was completely unconcerned and replied casually:

“Gu Fan, do you dare kill me? My Jia Family is one of the top families in Tianyun City. We have three late-stage Solar Radiance Realm Old Ancestors, and are on excellent terms with the City Lord of the Celestial Heart Realm!”

As he spoke, Jia Bing took a step forward, his tone extremely arrogant:

“No one in all of Tianyun City dares to say they want to kill me. You think you can?”

“Gu Fan! Do you really dare kill me?”

Gu Fan’s smile disappeared, his eyes narrowing slightly.

In the next instant, a flash of sword light burst forth, instantly crossing the distance between them and slashing toward Jia Bing.

The sudden change startled Jia Bing, making him stumble back and instinctively shove his two subordinates in front of him.

With a slicing sound, the two guards were cut in half at the waist!

Only then did Jia Bing realize the gravity of the situation. He never imagined Gu Fan would actually dare to kill!

He had been arrogant his whole life, and no one had ever dared lay a hand on him!

This had led him to instinctively believe Gu Fan would be the same as everyone else.

But just now… if he hadn’t reacted quickly, he would have been cut in half on the spot!

At that moment, Gu Fan’s voice rang out again, though no one knew when he had already appeared beside him.

His tone was contemptuous, carrying a faint smile.

“Everyone else is dead. Now, it’s your turn.”
