Free Web NovelChapter 1278: Chapter 1277: Fishing for Trouble
According to Triangular Eyes, the Yun Sect has the Treasure Map, but Yun Sect is unaware of it. Instead, Triangular Eyes found out.
Lin Fan was curious: "How did you find out?"
Triangular Eyes said: "I discovered it in my master’s diary. Reviving the Divine Blade Sect was my master’s lifelong wish. We are merely carrying forward his legacy. My master spent his life working toward this goal. In his final journal entry before he died, he mentioned the Treasure Map being in the Yun Sect. As for how he learned this, the records are unclear, and I don’t know either. If my master hadn’t met with unforeseen circumstances, he likely would have come to the Yun Sect himself." freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Lin Fan uttered an "Oh," and said: "What is your master’s name?"
Triangular Eyes replied: "My master’s surname is Chen, full name Chen Tianchi."
Lin Fan asked: "Excluding the three of you, how many people are in the Divine Blade Sect?"
Triangular Eyes answered: "Originally, there were five of us brothers. I’m the eldest. You already know the second and fourth brothers. The other two were killed half a month ago, and the murderers remain unknown. We plan to find the treasure first and then look for the killers to avenge them."
Lin Fan nodded. Up to this point, Triangular Eyes was saying only the truth. This guy seemed to have gotten honest, no longer daring to play tricks with him.
"You told me about the Treasure Map. Are you not afraid that I covet the treasure?" Lin Fan smiled.
Triangular Eyes smiled bitterly: "Do I have a choice? If I lie to you, how good would my fate be then?"
Triangular Eyes was internally cursing 10,000 times, wasn’t Lin Fan just asking the obvious?
Lin Fan said: "Indeed, you don’t have a choice. I’m telling you now, the Yun Sect’s Treasure Map, as of this moment, is mine."
Upon hearing this, Triangular Eyes felt as though struck by lightning. Even though he was mentally prepared, hearing Lin Fan say it still made it hard to accept.
But could he refuse? He wasn’t Lin Fan’s match!
He could only comfort himself internally, ’As long as the green hills remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.’ He would slowly find a way to settle accounts with Lin Fan later!
Lin Fan said: "Since the Treasure Map is now mine, there’s no need for you to go to the Yun Sect anymore. You’re free to return home. Also, don’t ever try to approach the Yun Sect again because if you do, you’re going against me, and I won’t forgive you."
Triangular Eyes nodded, hesitantly: "Understood."
"That’s good."
As Lin Fan said this, he walked to the side, lifted the slender man, and threw him to Triangular Eyes, "Pack up your weapons. You’re free to leave, but don’t step foot in Southern Yunnan again or try to provoke me. Leave now."
Although Triangular Eyes was reluctant, he dared not say anything more. He simply picked up his knife and then helped up the burly woman. At this moment, the slender man was revived by the burly woman, and the three supported each other, preparing to leave.
Suddenly, they saw Lin Fan clutching his stomach, squatting on the ground, his face looking very troubled.
The three exchanged glances, none of them understanding.
"Mr. Lin, what’s wrong?" Triangular Eyes tentatively asked.
Lin Fan tried his best to appear okay and said: "I’m fine, you should leave quickly!"
Seeing this, Triangular Eyes knew Lin Fan must be in pain, pretending to be alright to urge them to leave quickly.
"Mr. Lin, are you really okay? You’re sweating cold beads." Triangular Eyes asked with a face full of concern. Initially supporting the slender man, he began to approach Lin Fan.
Lin Fan chuckled: "How could I be in trouble."
As he spoke, he stood up, but as soon as he did, he let out a muffled groan, fell to his knees, frowning deeply, clearly in pain.
Triangular Eyes was immediately ecstatic, though unsure why, Lin Fan seemingly had injuries or was having a medical episode!
"Mr. Lin?" he called out, his hand reached for the knife handle. Seeing Lin Fan not responding, he slowly withdrew the knife and approached Lin Fan.
Lin Fan was then crunched over, clutching his stomach, too painful to pay attention to Triangular Eyes.
A sinister expression appeared on Triangular Eyes’ face, this opportunity was too rare, he couldn’t let it pass, as the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot!
Without any hesitation, he swung his knife toward Lin Fan, laughing internally, ’Die now, hahahaha...’
Nearby, the burly woman and slender man became excited, Lin Fan was truly hateful, and he just happened to have an episode now, wasn’t this like divine assistance!
The knife from Triangular Eyes was about to strike Lin Fan.
Suddenly, Triangular Eyes’ knife stopped, just one foot away from Lin Fan’s head, coming to a halt.
Lin Fan reached out a hand and used two fingers to pinch the blade like pliers, freezing the knife.
Seeing this, the burly woman and slender man were shocked, shouting, ’Damn, Lin Fan actually reacted!’
Triangular Eyes also turned pale with shock, instinctively exerting force, trying to cut down with the knife, momentarily drawing on his Inner Strength.
However, no matter how hard he tried, his knife couldn’t move an inch.
Lin Fan then raised his head, looking at the grimacing Triangular Eyes, revealing a cold smile, calmly standing up, his gaze fixed on Triangular Eyes, meeting his eyes.
At this moment, he showed no signs of pain, he wasn’t hurt at all!
Beads of cold sweat dripped from Triangular Eyes’ forehead, he realized Lin Fan had been pretending!
One had to admit, Lin Fan’s acting was so good it tricked Triangular Eyes.
Lin Fan chuckled: "I said didn’t I, don’t try to provoke me again, how quickly you forget? Honestly, I’m a bit disappointed."
Lin Fan’s previous feigning of illness was a test for the opponent.
Triangular Eyes had no rebuttal, his body trembled with fright, damn, Lin Fan was so cunning, it was clearly a trap!
Yet, he took the bait!
"Mr. Lin, sir, I’m sorry, please give us another chance, I promise never to dare again..." Triangular Eyes squeezed out a smile.
Lin Fan shook his head: "Sorry, I can’t trust you anymore."
Before the words fell, Lin Fan kicked out, hitting Triangular Eyes in the abdomen, sending him flying and crashing heavily on the ground, spitting blood.
Seeing Lin Fan advancing step by step, Triangular Eyes panicked, shouting in fear: "Stop! You can’t blame me, you set the trap yourself, it’s your fault!"
Lin Fan completely ignored him, continued walking forward.
Triangular Eyes was terrified, struggled to climb up, shouted, swinging his knife at Lin Fan, he had lost composure, wildly attacking, unable to harm Lin Fan at all.
Lin Fan kicked him down again, followed up with a step, directly stomping on his abdomen, his foot exploded his Dantian! fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
"Ah!"
A heart-wrenching scream echoed in the air from Triangular Eyes.
