Chapter 746: Chapter 746: This Night is Not Peaceful

"Don’t kill them!"

As soon as Zhao Jiaqi opened her eyes, she grabbed Lin Fan’s arm.

She then looked around in panic, relieved to see that the scene from her dream, littered with corpses everywhere, had not materialized.

"They bullied you like this, and you still plead on their behalf?"

Seeing the tears in Zhao Jiaqi’s eyes, Lin Fan couldn’t help but tease her.

"They didn’t bully me..."

Zhao Jiaqi quickly shook her head and denied it, "The villagers here are all very kind to me and are down-to-earth, not like what you imagine... you can’t kill them!"

"But I have already killed those who deserved it; you are too late!"

Lin Fan said with a mischievous smile, shrugging his shoulders.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jiaqi felt a wave of dizziness.

"How can you... be so brutal... Why are you so ruthless... It’s all my fault they are dead..."

Zhao Jiaqi, sobbing heavily, suddenly made Lin Fan burst into laughter.

Xu Zhi Rou quickly spoke up, "Jiaqi, don’t listen to Lin Fan, he is just teasing you, how could he possibly have killed everyone?"

"Teasing me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jiaqi stopped crying, her eyes tearful as she looked at them.

"Yeah, of course, he is teasing you. Not to mention that he is Lin Fan, even the past Di Xin wouldn’t harm innocent people, and not only have things been resolved, but he has also become a honored guest of the Shura Sect..."

It was only then that Xu Zhi Rou explained the whole situation.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jiaqi finally stopped crying completely.

But a surge of anger rose in her heart; she immediately stood up and pounced towards Lin Fan, "Lin Fan, you bastard... how could you deceive me!"

"There is one thing I truly didn’t deceive you about!"

Lin Fan said with a smile, holding her delicate fist in his hand.

"What thing?"

Zhao Jiaqi was startled.

"The Elder Council divined that you could give birth to a precious child, and I didn’t deceive you about this!"

Lin Fan said with a mischievous grin, licking his lips, "So about that matter, shouldn’t we consider it thoroughly?"

"Go away! Annoying, I don’t want to consider it with you!"

Zhao Jiaqi’s cheeks flushed with embarrassment as she broke free from Lin Fan’s grasp and ran to Xu Zhi Rou’s side.

"I warn you, let’s be clear, at most, we have a deep combat camaraderie. Don’t think about those messy things. I do not fancy you, nor do I want to study it with you. If you want to study, study it with her; I’m going back to the village."

Pushing Xu Zhi Rou into Lin Fan’s arms, Zhao Jiaqi quickly ran toward the distance.

Looking at the butterfly-like figure in the distance, Xu Zhi Rou couldn’t help but say, "It looks like this little girl won’t be as obedient to you as we are, Mr. Wang, you need to step up your game."

"Those who should stay can’t escape, those who should leave can’t be kept; anyway, you can’t escape from me in this lifetime."

Lin Fan wrapped his arm around Xu Zhi Rou’s waist; sometimes, this kind of banter was quite nice.

"So what do we do now?"

Xu Zhi Rou asked, her cheeks blushing as Lin Fan led her towards the village.

"Give them a new cultivation technique, have them properly guard the golden corpse, and wait for me to find the Xuanyuan Sword and come back to fetch him."

Lin Fan had to ensure that the golden corpse absolutely could not escape now.

On the way back to the village, the crowd had already regathered in the square.

The third elder had also exposed the malign actions of Zhou Tianfu to the crowd.

Only then did everyone understand the original cause of the events.

However, as they looked at Lin Fan returning, their eyes still carried a sense of panic.

After all, no matter what, his hands were stained with the blood of the Zhou Family.

"Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, and Zhou Tianfu has been brought to justice, I can only say I am very sorry for the innocent people who were involved."

Clearly seeing the panic in the people’s hearts, Lin Fan cleared his throat and continued, "To express my apologies, I have agreed with the third elder to leave behind a superior Cultivation Technique to help the Zhou Family rebuild their family traditions..."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately showed a look of anticipation.

As former branches of the Tomb Guardians, everyone was well aware of the discontinuities in the current cultivation techniques.

The real high-level Cultivation Techniques, which had been buried along with the disappearance of the Tomb Guardian families, were inaccessible. Thus, even if the Zhou Family wanted to make a breakthrough, they had nowhere to start. Over the years, due to external marriages, they had realized that their family was indeed looked down upon when placed externally. The families they could tie bonds with were only third-rate Martial Cultivator families, and the inability to change this weighed heavily on everyone’s minds.

Now, if they could obtain a new high-level Cultivation Technique, they would be regarded more highly in future interactions with the major families, which might be the ultimate dream of all Martial Cultivators.

However, not everyone thought this way; at least in the crowd, there were some who still harbored hate.

As the crowd dispersed, the earlier hustle and the bloodshed had been buried in the river of time.

While most people were secretly celebrating the upcoming high-level Cultivation Techniques, in a corner of the village, an old woman with a gloomy face watched her son entering.

"Mom, you haven’t rested yet?"

Seeing that his mother was still sitting there, the son asked with concern.

"Where have you been?"

The mother asked coldly.

"Didn’t the third elder ask all the able-bodied to go to the shrine hall to select suitable candidates for the next step in cultivation? I have been listed for cultivation, and it’s very likely I will learn the high-level Cultivation Technique."

The young man shared the recent events with a joyful face; a high-level Cultivation Technique was every Cultivator’s dream.

"You’re so happy. Have you forgotten that your uncle just died by that man’s hand? Just for a Cultivation Technique, you’ve forgotten he’s our enemy!"

The mother’s words stunned the young man.

"But that was all due to Zhou Tianfu’s selfish desires, who would have expected that he not only pressured Zhao Jiaqi to marry his stupid son, but also wanted to usurp his daughter-in-law using the son’s name... if anyone is to blame, it can only be Zhou Tianfu for being too evil and involving uncle..."

"Rubbish, are those even human words!"

Unexpectedly, the mother stomped her foot furiously, "All those words are just from the third elder’s side who knows what’s true or false. I only know that your uncle is dead, and now that the Shura Sect has changed, don’t forget, when your uncle was alive, we had high power within the clan based on his position. Now that he’s gone, we are really going to face troubles, and what we had before is gone."

"Mom, don’t worry, I will cultivate diligently, and if I try hard enough, I am sure I can regain everything,"

the young man said, clenching his fists.

"Effort is useless; you should know, your uncle was a former subordinate of Zhou Tianfu. After the third elder came into power, how could he possibly use the relationships of Zhou Tianfu’s old subordinates? You are merely being marginalized, and them saying you have a chance to cultivate is just a temporary pacification, an excuse. I can assure you, the third elder will definitely not give you this opportunity!"

The mother’s words poured cold water over the young man.

Stunned, he did not know what to do next.

"Mom ... what do you want me to do then?"

Ultimately, he could only look towards his mother, who revealed a sinister smile.

"Release the golden corpse. If they won’t let us have peace, then no one shall have peace!"
