I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head - Chapter 304

Chapter 304: Revenge Never Sleeps (Part One)

After breaking through to the sixth level of the Energy Refinement Stage, Chu Yunfan’s strength had a breakthrough. He was no longer the same as before.

It was time to get back at Jiang Xuan. It was not Chu Yunfan’s style to just take a beating and not fight back.

After leaving the Mountain River Diagram, Chu Yunfan began to kill day and night again. During the day, he would kill criminals to earn points. At night, he hunted monsters to train himself and replenish his food stash.

After just a day of doing this, Chu Yunfan’s whereabouts were once again discovered.

Slash!

Chu Yunfan killed the criminal in front of him with a single slash. But when he turned around, he discovered that there were about a dozen other criminals surrounding him. They were all experts—the best among these condemned criminals. The weakest of them were at the fourth and fifth levels of the Energy Refinement Stage. Among them, the person in the lead was nearly six and a half feet tall. There was a huge scar on his face that extended all the way from his face to his arm. This wound had almost sliced this person in half. And the person who had left this wound on his body was none other than Chu Yunfan.

When the criminal leader saw that it was Chu Yunfan, a ferocious smile appeared on his face. The huge wound on his face looked even more menacing. He had almost been sent flying by Chu Yunfan’s Broken Flow. If he had not dodged it, he would surely have died.

During that battle, both the criminal leader and Chu Yunfan suffered heavy injuries. This was the first time this criminal had been injured by someone who looked like prey to him. He had almost lost his life. It was equivalent to being pecked in the eye by the ducks he had been hunting.

This was a great humiliation to the criminal leader. After getting treated, he began searching for Chu Yunfan. Now, he had finally found him.

It was like the revenge of a wild wolf.

“I thought you’d be dead by now,” the criminal leader said in surprise as he looked at Chu Yunfan.

At that time, Chu Yunfan had almost split the criminal leader into two, but Chu Yunfan had also been seriously injured. Otherwise, he would have chased after Chu Yunfan.

Both sides had suffered heavy injuries. It was because of this that the criminal leader was a little surprised that Chu Yunfan had not died.

If you’re not dead, how could I be? Half of you is almost gone, but you’re not dead. You’re the true miracle here,” Chu Yunfan said with a sneer.

“It’s good that you’re not dead. I’ll personally cut off your head. That head of yours is worth a lot of money,” the criminal leader said, “It’s worth 50 million to be exact!”

…

“You’re a person who’s fated to die. What’s the use of all that money? Don’t tell me that you want to leave it to your family. Hehe, I would never believe you’re that kind of person,” Chu Yunfan said as he looked at the criminal leader coldly.

The surrounding criminals encircled Chu Yunfan, but he was not anxious in the slightest.

“Don’t you know? Jiang Pengfei promised that as long as one of us kills you, the Jiangs will help us obtain amnesty. I want to return to the colorful world of humans. I haven’t enjoyed myself enough. I don’t want to die like this.”

As the criminal leader spoke, a yearning expression appeared on his face. Only after staying in this godforsaken place would one understand how precious their former lives were.

Humans were such creatures. They did not know how to cherish something until they lost it.

“You actually believe Jiang Pengfei?” Chu Yunfan said with a laugh, “Who does he think he is? An elder of the Jiang family? He can help you get a pardon?”

Modern society was a strict legal society. It was not impossible to do anything that was above the law, but there was a considerable price to pay. With the Jiang family’s influence, they naturally had ways to pardon a person. However, the various connections and resources that had to be called upon were not to be underestimated.

And for the sake of a condemned criminal, they would use such connections and resources?

Chu Yunfan did not believe it.

“Jiang Pengfei alone isn’t enough, but there’s also Jiang Lei who’s thinking of ways to capture you. Just how many Jiang family descendants have you offended? Seeing as if you’re not dead yet, you must be quite capable. There may still be hope for you,” said the criminal leader, “You have yet to experience despair, so you won’t understand how precious it is to survive, even if there’s only a glimmer of hope.

“You have no hope of escaping. Even if it isn’t me, you won’t be able to escape. So why don’t you obediently hand over your head to me? Since you’re going to die, why don’t you fulfill my wish?”

The criminal leader laughed sinisterly, the killing intent in his body rolling out in waves. To survive and avoid the Federation Government’s attack that was most certain to come, he had to kill Chu Yunfan.

“You want to take my head? Do you think that’s possible?” Chu Yunfan laughed coldly.

The criminal leader instantly made his move. He unsheathed his saber and pounced toward Chu Yunfan.

“Usually, there’s no need for a dead person to know all this. However, you’re the first person with a cultivation realm lower than mine to seriously injure me. You’re qualified to know my name. Remember, go down and tell the King of Hell that the person who killed you is Xie Feiying!”

Before the leader of the criminals finished his sentence, he had arrived before Chu Yunfan.

The Shadowless Saber in Chu Yunfan’s hand swung out at lightning speed. In an instant, he blocked the incoming attack.

Clang!

The two sabers collided with each other. True Energy instantly exploded and collided with each other.

“I’m not interested in the name of a dead man!” Chu Yunfan shouted.

“You’ve broken through!” A look of shock flashed through Xie Feiying’s eyes. Compared to last time, Chu Yunfan had made a major improvement. He was no longer the same as before. It had only been a few days, and the difference was simply too great.

“That’s right. It’s all thanks to you. That’s why I came back to kill you,” Chu Yunfan admitted without hesitation.

“What a joke. Just because you’ve broken through, do you think you’re now enough to fight me?!” Xie Feiying roared. He felt like he was being underestimated. He had been in this stage for several years, and Chu Yunfan had just broken through.

“It’s enough to kill you.”

Chu Yunfan was about to attack again, but Xie Feiying’s subordinates rushed over and attacked Chu Yunfan together.

Chu Yunfan’s eyes shone. If he does not deal with Xie Feiying’s subordinates, they would be a problem.

“Since you’ve all come here to die, I’ll send you on your way first.”

Chu Yunfan took a step forward and arrived in front of a condemned criminal in the fourth level of the Energy Refinement Stage.

The condemned criminal had not expected Chu Yunfan would be able to dodge the attack formation that they had launched together. Chu Yunfan used mysterious footwork and dodged it as if he was taking a stroll through a garden.

Slash!

The condemned criminal did not have time to react before Chu Yunfan cut off his head. An incredulous expression froze on the criminal’s face even when he was about to die.
