They felt her killing intent. They could not understand why their Clan Leader Su Yan who was always kind and gentle to her own people wanted to fight against them for real. Didn’t it mean that she was truly enraged?
Why would she be so furious? If it was only about the fight over the clan leader position, she would not need to make a big fuss over it and make the entire clan her enemy, right?
Could it be that Xi Mo really set her up to kill her? Is that the reason why she harbored such enmity against him?
Everyone could sense the coldness in Su Yan’s killing intent. Fear began to fill their hearts.
Only Ning Fan who had been quietly spectating the scene at the side from the beginning had a sparkle in his eyes. He understood the sorrow in Su Yan’s heart.
Only he knew that the coldness of her killing intent was not because of her hatred but because of the disappointment and sadness she had for them.
This woman was betrayed by her own clan members whom she had been striving to protect with her life...
If Xi Mo was the only person who betrayed her, she would not have felt so heartbroken. However, it turned out that everyone had turned their backs on her.
Even so, she did not really let go of her feelings for her clan members.
She would probably persist in seeking her revenge and charge towards Xi Mo while killing every single clan member who would stand in her way.
However, for every person she kills, her heart would bleed one time. How is she supposed to take the lives of the people whom she had struggled to protect...?
"If you find it difficult to act, then let me handle them."
Ning Fan held Su Yan’s wrist and took a step forward. His cold eyes stared straight at Xi Mo. With just a stare, it made the latter feel a sharp pain in his eyes as if they got pricked by needles. He was unable to withstand Ning Fan’s aura force which was as sharp as a sword. Seeing that Ning Fan was going to intervene, he was filled with shock.
Just around three months ago, he had a confrontation against him. During that time, Ning Fan might have been strong, but he certainly did not have those forceful and intimidating eyes.
Currently, he had a feeling that he could not defeat him which he found extremely ridiculous for him to feel that way!
"Don’t. You don’t have to take action. Let me do it!" Su Yan looked at Ning Fan with a pleading look in her eyes while trying to break free from his hand.
If she deals with Xi Mo, she would try her best to keep the casualties low when the other members of the clan try to stop her.
However, if she let Ning Fan deal with Xi Mo, perhaps no living creature in the city would survive.
In the Mist Horn Broken World, she had witnessed the frightening scene where Ning Fan alone eliminated millions of devil spirits.
Ning Fan was a devil lord who was used to carnage and bloodshed. Even if he takes millions of lives, he would not even bat an eye.
It’ll never work... I must not let him take action. Otherwise... the Mist Horn Clan will be annihilated!
"Don’t worry. I won’t even bother to kill a few lowly Gold Core Realm and Nascent Soul Realm cultivators."
Ning Fan did not explain much. He only reassured Su Yan that he would not kill the Gold Core Realm and Nascent Soul Realm of the Mist Horn Clan.
According to his personality, he rarely cut weeds without eliminating the roots when he handled his problems. However, in a way, Xi Mo’s deception was one of the factors that had influenced members of the Mist Horn Clan to support him. They did not actually pledge their full loyalty to him. If they find out the truth, they would not seek revenge for him even if he is killed. Thus, their lives could be spared.
On the other hand, Su Yan’s pleading look made Ning Fan feel pity for her.
Even when she thought Ning Fan was going to search her soul and memories when he brought her to the dark golden pagoda, she never pleaded.
Even when she was surrounded by millions of devil spirits and 15 Void Refinement Realm old monsters, she chose to fight for her life without even begging for his help.
Despite her soft appearance, she was a strong and competitive woman, just like an iron fist in a velvet glove. She would never implore others to share her burden. Hence, Ning Fan could feel as if it had directly happened to him by just looking at the pleading look in her eyes.
"Really?" Su Yan was stunned. She could not believe that Ning Fan who was a devil lord that killed people like scything flax would actually exercise mercy.
"I never lie to my devil concubine."
Ning Fan took one step forward. He already had a plan in mind. He was going to release his ancestral devil might directly to make all low-grade devil cultivators pass out. Then, they would not create any trouble for him.
No matter how many low-grade cultivators there were, they could no longer pose a threat to Ning Fan. They could not even maintain their consciousness before him.
Ning Fan’s killing intent locked on to Xi Mo. Before he had even unleashed his baleful qi and devil might, it already frightened every member of the Mist Horn Clan.
That was an intimidating power he felt from the depths of his devil bloodline. That was the supreme devil might of the first Ancestral Devil after the nine great devil ancestors!
Xi Mo found it even harder to believe. The devil bloodline he had was at the incomplete grade. Even though his devil bloodline was already extremely strong, he was still incapable of keeping his composure in front of Ning Fan with his qi and blood becoming chaotic!
"My three friends, I’m sorry to trouble you but please help me kill Zhou Ming!" Xi Mo passed a message to the three Void Refinement Realm experts behind him through telepathy.
"Alright! But we will naturally ask for a reward for it... Hehe. This young man might be a revered elder who is of great importance to the Rain Palace to which common people must not take his life rashly, but we three brothers are the reputable ’Three Rain Bandit Kings’. There are only people whom we aren’t capable of killing but there are none whom we don’t dare to kill! We three brothers will help you get rid of him!"
The last few lines that this trio spoke were extremely blunt. They had no intention of keeping their identities a secret. Just as their voices fell, it stirred up an uproar in the city.
It was only at this moment that everyone realized that the three Void Refinement Realm old monsters were actually the three notorious bandit kings of the Rain World!
The three of them had the same master. When they were about to finish studying under their master, they murdered him and walked the path of banditry.
From being ordinary bandits, they worked their way up to being kings of thousands of bandits. They kept their movements secret and undertook different missions to kill others and seize their treasures. There was no one they were afraid to kill. As long as one was willing to pay an adequate sum of money and they were capable of killing that person, they would not hesitate to take the mission!
They all possessed unrivaled strength among Void Glimpse Stage experts. Each of them was as strong as Shi Kun. With the three of them fighting together, they had once killed a Void Inquiry Stage expert in direct confrontation. Moreover, the Void Inquiry Stage expert they killed was a palace lord of one of the Rain Palace’s divisions!
Today, the three of them were going to act on Xi Mo’s behalf to kill Ning Fan. Everyone already believed that Ning Fan would not be their match. After all, the three bandit kings had killed a Void Inquiry Stage expert before and that expert was not grievously injured like how Mo Xiu had been.
All of the cultivators gave Ning Fan a look of sympathy. No matter how great or formidable one’s background was, when they are targeted by the bandit kings, there is no way for them to keep their lives.
Only Su Yan remained composed because she was aware of how terrifying Ning Fan’s strength was.
Among the crowd, Ming Que also raised her little head and gazed into the sky. She was looking forward to witnessing her Brother Biscuit’s impressiveness in crushing his opponents. Well, she did not like others underestimating him.
"Zhou Ming, even if you are the Rain Sovereign’s grandson, when you meet us, the three bandit kings, we will still kill you without exception! Hehe. We’ve seen too many juniors like you who were said to be unrivalled among Void Glimpse Stage experts. We won’t even need one hundred breaths to kill you!"
The trio let out wild and arrogant laughters. None of them was afraid of breaking the law. They truly were vicious savages who would even dare to kill the division palace lord of the Rain Palace.
Unfortunately, they picked the wrong person to mess with this time. Killing Ning Fan within one hundred breaths? They really think too highly of themselves.
At the next moment, each of them turned into a ray of light and dash towards Ning Fan with their magic weapons in their hands.
