I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head - Chapter 1684
1684 Chu Yunfan Will Never Return
In other words, Chu Yunfan had safely entered and exited the Flying Celestials more than a hundred times, and this did not include the pursuit of others. Nobody knew how Chu Yunfan managed to avoid being hunted down by these people. There were even some vicious people on the wanted list that even elite disciples couldn’t deal with.
As long as they were targeted, they would be dead for sure. However, no one could find Chu Yunfan’s whereabouts, let alone those who were weaker. And even when they found him, they would be killed.
“Useless! You’re all useless! This is such a small matter, and you can’t even get it done?!” Wang Yifan said angrily, “Chu Yunfan is so big, yet you can’t find him? Are you blind?!”
“Senior Wang, we’ve tried our best to find him, but we’re always one step behind. Chu Yunfan is vigilant, and our people often disappear halfway,” the disciple said with a bitter smile.
There were many disciples who had come to Startling Cloud Peak to join Wang Yifan. Among those who came were many inner and even elite disciples. There was no shortage of manpower, but after Chu Yunfan’s continuous killings in the past two months, their numbers had taken a big hit.
Everyone now saw Chu Yunfan as a tiger’s den. It was simply a one-way trip. Ordinary inner disciples and even elite disciples would fall at Chu Yunfan’s hands if they went. Although there was no clear information that these missing disciples were related to Chu Yunfan, it was fine if it happened once or twice. After so many times, even the most stupid person would realize that they must have died at Chu Yunfan’s hands.
Although they didn’t know how Chu Yunfan did it, there was no doubt that Chu Yunfan was like a demon to the disciples of Startling Cloud Peak, devouring all those who chased after him.
Everyone came to treat this task as a chore, and no one was willing to accept this mission. They were scared of being killed by Chu Yunfan. Many people were not afraid of death, but dying in such a strange way was what everyone was most afraid of.
When Wang Yifan heard this, his breathing quickened. Dealing with Chu Yunfan was more difficult than he had anticipated. He had not taken Chu Yunfan seriously. In his heart, Chu Yunfan’s was just Yi Yunyao’s dog. The person he wanted to target and slap in the face was actually Yi Yunyao. As for Chu Yunfan, it was just a side quest.
However, these consecutive failures made him slowly pay more attention to Chu Yunfan. He had a vague feeling that Chu Yunfan was not easy to deal with. If he did not make a move, he might lose control of the situation.
Wnag Yifan couldn’t directly attack because of Yi Yunyao, but in his eyes, Chu Yunfan was like a toad crawling on its feet. Chu Yunfan couldn’t hurt anyone, but the sight of him was disgusting.
“Chu Yunfan must be eliminated!” Wang Yifan’s eyes flashed with killing intent, as if he was a ferocious beast that could devour anyone at any time. “Get me Yuwen Xing.”
“Yes, Senior Wang.” The disciple quickly went down to report.
A moment later, a handsome man in his twenties strode in.
“Greetings, Senior Wang.” The man bowed to Wang Yifan.
“How’s your cultivation?” Wang Yifan said with a smile.
“Thank you for your concern, Senior Wang. I just came out of seclusion today and am only one step away from the Abstract Interpretation Stage,” Yuwen Xing said with cupped his hands.
“Pretty good. Among the many disciples who have joined me, your talent is one of the best. Last time, I didn’t allow you to participate in the inner disciple competition, but this time, I want you to do so,” Wang Yifan said.
Yu Wenxing revealed a surprised and happy expression. There were countless people like him who relied on a true disciple. The true disciples were from different factions and small sects. In the future, when these true disciples ascended to high positions and maybe even became sect leaders, they would be the core team behind these true disciples and their future glory would be limitless.
Thus, Yuwen Xing didn’t dare to disobey Wang Yifan’s words. He hadn’t participated in the last inner disciple competition, but it was different this time. His cultivation had long reached the Abstract Stage, and he was only a step away from the Abstract Interpretation Stage. Once he broke through, he could become and elite disciple.
Of course, even after becoming an elite disciple, he still wouldn’t dare to be impudent before Wang Yifan. The difference between elite disciples and true disciples was like heaven and earth.
“Thank you, Senior Wang,” Yuwen Xing said.
Wang Yifan nodded. “You have talent, so why would I stop you from participating? It’s just that your cultivation level was still far below during the last batch, so there was no point in participating. As the saying goes, to make a name for yourself, you have to surprise everyone with a single brilliant feat. If you want the sect to look at you in a different light, you have to became the champion.”
“I will never forget your painstaking help during my cultivation, Senior Wang.” Yuwen Xing quickly expressed his loyalty.
Wang Yifan smiled in satisfaction. “Winning the inner disciple competition is important, but I want you to pay attention to one particular person—Chu Yunfan. He’s cunning and pretty strong. I want you to kill him in the inner disciple competition.”
When Yuwen Xing heard this, he was startled. He had been in seclusion for half a year and had just been called out by Wang Yifan. If Wang Yifan hadn’t called him out, he might have broken through to the Abstract Interpretation Stage before coming out. Therefore, he didn’t know anything about Chu Yunfan, but for Wang Yifan to treat him so seriously, Chu Yunfan must be a handful.
Yuwen Xing said, “I understand. Don’t worry, Senior Wang. Since he has offended you, he is also my enemy. Once I see him, I will not let him go.”
Yuwen Xing had a confident expression. If it was anything else, he might not be confident, but if it was the inner disciple competition, it would be as easy as flipping his hand. He firmly believed that he was invincible within this cultivation level. Unless he encountered elite disciples, ordinary inner disciples would die if they went up against him.
“Good!” Wang Yifan said, “I shall give you the Divinity Slicer. Once you kill him, I’ll give you more.”
Wang Yifan flicked his finger and a ray of light entered Yuwen Xing’s mind. Yuwen Xing closed his eyes. He saw a shining sword in his mind. It was the Divinity Slicer he had dreamed of.
“Thank you, Senior Wang. I will do my best in the inner disciple competition to make sure that Chu Yunfan doesn’t return.”
