Chapter 577: Chapter 577: Is Ning Fan Dead?_1

Lin Haifeng had been observing Ning Fan’s strength during this period and he discovered something that terrified him.

In just fifteen short days, Ning Fan’s power had at least doubled!

This was a terrifying figure, for once one entered the Great Grandmaster Realm, it was as difficult as ascending to heaven to improve even one step further.

Yet, Ning Fan seemed to be able to keep getting stronger, as if there were no limits!

To be the enemy of such a terrifying person would be a lifelong nightmare!

Lin Haifeng gathered his mind, not daring to think further, and also approached the light screen, launching an attack against it.

Four powerful attacks struck the light screen, causing the entire screen to tremble.

The ground beneath their feet also rumbled continuously as if it couldn’t withstand such terrifying power!

...

The outside world.

The strong ones who had left the Celestial Forbidden Grounds spread the news that Ning Fan and his three companions had died within the Celestial Forbidden Grounds.

In their eyes, once trapped in the Celestial Forbidden Grounds, one could only wait a hundred years for the formation to disappear before possibly walking out.

But how many could live a hundred years in the Celestial Forbidden Grounds? Being trapped was tantamount to death!

As for the words of these strong ones, naturally, no one doubted them.

It was almost universally accepted that Ning Fan and his three companions had died within the Celestial Forbidden Grounds.

The Phoenix Special Combat Team base.

Mu Wanqing was on the phone when suddenly, she seemed to lose all her strength, the mobile phone falling to the floor without her noticing.

Her eyes glazed over as she stood there, her eyes gradually reddening, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Impossible... how could you possibly be dead..."

Mu Wanqing muttered to herself, repeating the same words over and over.

The phone call had informed her that Ning Fan had died in the Celestial Forbidden Grounds.

Mu Wanqing didn’t believe it; she was convinced that someone like Ning Fan could absolutely not die so suddenly!

But what place was the Celestial Forbidden Grounds if even a Great Grandmaster had a slim chance of survival entering it?

After crying for a long time, Mu Wanqing suddenly wiped away her tears, her eyes becoming determined.

"I believe in you, you definitely won’t die there!"

With that, she walked with determined steps, leading her subordinates to continue carrying out the tasks handed down from her superiors.

...

Chu City.

Ma Li, who was in charge of Tianling Biotech Company, also received the news.

She didn’t believe it and immediately dialed Ning Fan and Shuang’er’s numbers.

From the moment she received the news, she numbly and mechanically dialed their numbers over and over, but could never get through.

Immense grief completely enveloped her, and the strong woman in the eyes of outsiders was now slumped over her desk, sobbing uncontrollably.

...

Shen City.

After receiving the news, Shen Bingying also made a call to Ning Fan right away.

Just like the rest, she couldn’t get through, and as she repeatedly attempted and failed to connect, Shen Bingying’s heart sank to rock bottom.

She curled up alone on the sofa at home, her tears having long soaked her clothes.

...

Lin Xiaolin was also crying at this moment.

However, she was biting her lip fiercely, desperately suppressing her sobs.

Even though her lips were already bitten till they bled, staining them crimson, she still bit down hard, refusing to let out a sound.

She couldn’t let her mother Ding Hongxia know about Ning Fan’s incident, otherwise her mother would certainly not be able to bear such a sudden turn of events!

"Brother... don’t worry... I won’t let mom find out..."

Lin Xiaolin whispered, blood trickling down the corner of her mouth.

She reached out to wipe away the blood, and also her tears, forcing a smile that looked uglier than crying.

"So ugly..."

Looking at her reflection in the mirror, Lin Xiaolin murmured, but the next second, her tears broke through once again.

She knew she shouldn’t cry, at least not in front of her mother, but she couldn’t help herself...

After a long, long time, as if her tears had run dry, Lin Xiaoling finally stopped crying, but her entire being seemed soulless, with only numbness in her eyes.

...

Myriad Flowers Valley.

"Ning Fan died in the Celestial Forbidden Grounds?"

Su Qingcheng stared dumbly at the message on her phone, not responding for a long time.

She seemed petrified, maintaining the same posture throughout.

The tears continuously sliding from her eyes were the only thing that flowed unabated.

The message was from the Su Family’s intelligence network, which at first she didn’t believe, but soon, she lost all hope, all within a few short minutes.

She knew that the Su Family’s intelligence network would never feed her false information.

Immense agony pierced her heart like a sharp awl, making it painful to breathe.

She was opening her mouth wide, breathing in air in big gulps.

It was as if she would suffocate without breathing this way.

"Ning Fan..."

A myriad of thoughts ultimately condensed into his name, issuing from Su Qingcheng’s lips amidst boundless sorrow.

Vivid images related to Ning Fan flashed through her mind, and Su Qingcheng could no longer suppress her emotions.

She cried hoarsely, still desperately trying to muffle her sobs.

She didn’t want Xu Yourong to know, fearing that Xu Yourong couldn’t handle the shock.

But at this moment, Hua Nishang had already arrived outside the room.

With her strength, even through the door, she could hear Su Qingcheng’s muffled crying.

Concerned, she asked, "Qing Cheng, what’s wrong?"

"I... I’m fine... don’t come in..."

With a trembling voice, Su Qingcheng replied through her tears.
