Chapter 1061: Chapter 1061

"Qi Luomei, I am Cheng Bufan, I am your Senior Brother Cheng, don't you recognize me anymore?" Cheng Bufan looked at the demonized Qi Luomei opposite him, and for a moment his voice actually trembled.

Roar... Qi Luomei let out a long howl.

At this moment, Qi Luomei was practically no different from a beast, her eyes were cold, completely devoid of any human emotions.

Whoosh... In the blink of an eye, Qi Luomei pounced over, the sharp sword beam directly slashing towards Cheng Bufan's throat.

Cheng Bufan stood there staring blankly at the approaching Qi Luomei, having no intention at all of avoiding it.

Qi Luomei and Cheng Bufan, from childhood, practiced together in Quanzhen Xuanmen. Cheng Bufan still remembers the first time he saw Qi Luomei.

At that time, Qi Luomei was only seven or eight years old, she wore a beautiful ponytail, her eyes were clear, smiling brightly, and at that moment, Cheng Bufan vowed to always protect his Junior Sister and marry her when they grew up.

Just when Cheng Bufan was lost in thought, Ding Fan's sudden shout pulled him back to reality.

Ding Fan rushed over and, without a word, pulled Cheng Bufan away.

And just at the moment Ding Fan pulled Cheng Bufan away, Qi Luomei's longsword pierced the spot where Cheng Bufan had stood. If Ding Fan hadn't pulled him away in time, Qi Luomei's longsword would have pierced through his chest.

Ding Fan at this moment delivered several palms in succession, continuously forcing Qi Luomei back.

Cheng Bufan looked at the current rampaging Qi Luomei, feeling a pang of heartache. His heart was bleeding at this moment.

Only Cheng Bufan himself knew of his feelings for Qi Luomei.

Every change in Qi Luomei's expression mattered to Cheng Bufan. Back when Cheng Bufan was expelled from Quanzhen Xuanmen by Qi Changran, the main reason he fought desperately to return was that he could no longer bear not seeing his little Junior Sister...

Roar... Fınd the newest release on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⁂𝙣𝙚𝙩

At this moment, Qi Luomei once again let out a long howl to the sky.

Cheng Bufan now slowly walked towards the arena, his eyes full of determination as if he had made some decision.

"Big Brother, what are you going to do?" Ding Fan noticed Cheng Bufan's unusual behavior and hurriedly shouted.

"Brother, step aside, let me send my little Junior Sister off." Cheng Bufan said.

Ding Fan was stunned, then he stepped to the side.

Ding Fan knew Cheng Bufan was a person who valued relationships and loyalty. Given today's circumstances with Qi Luomei, Cheng Bufan's heart would definitely feel uncomfortable. If he wasn't allowed to resolve his emotional knots, he probably would never be at peace for the rest of his life.

Swoosh... At the moment Ding Fan withdrew from the battle, Cheng Bufan's longsword in his hand directly thrust towards Qi Luomei's chest.

Clang... Qi Luomei directly used her longsword to deflect Cheng Bufan's longsword. As she neutralized Cheng Bufan's attack, Qi Luomei's sword blade turned and directly stabbed forward.

Cheng Bufan slowly sidestepped to avoid...

Originally, Ding Fan was worried about Cheng Bufan making a mistake, so he was watching attentively from the side, ready to assist if Cheng Bufan couldn't withstand it.

However, at this moment, Cheng Bufan in the arena showed an unusually relaxed expression, and a smile could even be seen at the corners of his mouth.

In a short while, Cheng Bufan's right arm was grazed by Qi Luomei's sword beam. Ding Fan, a bit worried, wanted to go over and help, but Cheng Bufan outright refused.

"Brother, can I ask you for a favor?" Cheng Bufan suddenly said to Ding Fan.

Ding Fan was taken aback.

Cheng Bufan continued, minding his own business. "After I die, please take my Junior Sister's and my ashes back to Quanzhen Xuanmen and bury them together..."

Smart as Ding Fan was, at this moment, he sensed something was amiss.

And just as Ding Fan was about to go over and pull Cheng Bufan back, Cheng Bufan had already spread his arms wide open and headed straight for Qi Luomei's thrusting longsword.

The sword beam immediately pierced through Cheng Bufan's chest. Simultaneously, Cheng Bufan's longsword also penetrated Qi Luomei's chest.

"Big Brother!" Ding Fan shouted.

But at this moment, Cheng Bufan completely ignored the longsword that pierced through his chest. He gently held Qi Luomei in his arms.

"Junior Sister, Senior Brother... Senior Brother is taking you home..."

Qi Luomei's eyes gradually lost their light, and finally, they closed completely.

At this moment, Cheng Bufan was also content as he closed his eyes for the last time. By the time Ding Fan got there, the two were already dead, beyond recovery.

Ding Fan stood in front of the two bodies, feeling a mix of emotions.

Back in Yanjing, Ding Fan got to know Cheng Bufan and Qi Luomei.

At that time, Cheng Bufan's calligraphy made Ding Fan quite appreciate him, and they found common ground in discussing tea and calligraphy. Later, when they went to the Longxi Auction, Cheng Bufan brought along his little Junior Sister, Qi Luomei.

Qi Luomei was always somewhat arrogant. But as they spent more time together back then, their relationship became quite harmonious.

After the Longxi Auction, when they encountered Qi Luomei again, it was already when Cheng Bufan was expelled from the sect.

At that time, Qi Luomei became extremely cold. Later on, Qi Changran forced her to practice an evil cultivation technique, and by now, she had been demonized...

Thinking of this, Ding Fan couldn't help feeling a sense of regret.

Ding Fan observed that when Cheng Bufan and Qi Luomei dueled for the last time, it was probably the happiest time for Cheng Bufan in a long while.

It seemed that Cheng Bufan was reminded of the times at Quanzhen Xuanmen when he sparred with his little Junior Sister.

Looking at Qi Luomei and Cheng Bufan, both pierced through by each other's longswords, Ding Fan couldn't help but sigh deeply...

According to Cheng Bufan's final instructions, Ding Fan cremated both corpses and took the ashes with him. Ding Fan planned that after the matters here were resolved, he would go directly to the Quanzhen Xuanmen to fulfill Cheng Bufan's wish.

After doing all this, Ding Fan went straight back to Liyi City.

When he returned to the hotel, it was already around three or four in the morning.

Ding Fan returned to his room without disturbing Mu Zi in the room next door. He returned to the room and immediately sat cross-legged to meditate.

After circulating his energy through two Grand Circulations and three Xiao Zhoutian, the sky outside had already brightened.

Ding Fan tidied up briefly and then went to find Mu Zi. The two of them then went outside to get some food.

This hotel also had a dining area, and since the time for the Serpent Island Hidden Sect Gathering was approaching, most of the guests in the hotel were ancient martial artists, and those dining in the hall were also martial artists.

Breakfast was served in a buffet style.

Ding Fan and Mu Zi got their food and found a corner to sit down.

"Have you heard? The Quanzhen Xuanmen was wiped out last night!"

"What? Is it true? Annihilated?"

"I can guarantee it! My news is very accurate."

At this time, someone was discussing the news about Quanzhen Xuanmen.

Ding Fan was surprised. It had only been a few hours since he left the farm of Quanzhen Xuanmen, and already the news had spread so quickly.

"What's so strange about an external hidden sect being wiped out? Haven't you heard? Previously, the Li Family of Black Mountain was also eliminated."

"We heard about the Li Family of Black Mountain too. It seems to have been done by the Immortal Sect."

"I think it's possible the Immortal Sect was also behind the destruction of Quanzhen Xuanmen."

Listening to the discussions around him, Ding Fan didn't say much. After all, saying anything now wouldn't have any impact. To thoroughly overturn the allegations against the Immortal Sect, he would have to wait until the day of the Serpent Island Hidden Sect Gathering.

After breakfast, Ding Fan and Mu Zi returned to their room.

Ding Fan once again asked Mu Zi to confirm Mu Tu's current situation.

After all, Mu Tu was the key figure in this Serpent Island Hidden Sect Gathering. If something went wrong with him, it would be troublesome.

After Mu Zi made the call, the military confirmed once again that Mu Tu was being held securely.

At the moment, not only were the military guarding Mu Tu, but Ding Fan had also left Mei Zhi and Li Duoer there, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Ding Fan told Mu Zi to arrange a helicopter, so on the day of the Serpent Island Gathering, they could send Mu Tu over by helicopter.

Transporting Mu Tu by plane would be a more secure method. Even if someone wanted to intercept him halfway, they wouldn't be able to.

Mu Zi agreed and went to make arrangements as Ding Fan requested.

Now, the time for the Serpent Island Hidden Sect Gathering was drawing closer.

In the remaining days, Ding Fan didn't plan to wander around anymore. During this time, he planned to refine some more Pills and Array Flags.

Who knows what might happen under the current circumstances? It's never wrong to be prepared.

In the blink of an eye, five days had passed, and tomorrow was the day of the Serpent Island Hidden Sect Gathering.

These days, Ding Fan has constantly been using his Divine Sense to monitor the situation in the city and refining Pills and Array Flags.

During the remaining days, nothing else unexpected was discovered.

However, such peace made Ding Fan feel uneasy, like a prelude to a storm; the calmer it is before, the more violent the storm will be when it comes.

At this time, Ding Fan sent Mu Zi directly to the military. He and Mu Zi also agreed that when the time came, after he contacted her by phone, she would arrange for Mu Tu, Mei Zhi, and Li Duoer to be transported over.

After arranging the transport for Li Duoer and the others, Ding Fan took off using Sword Control.

After all, Ding Fan was the initiator of this Hidden Sect Gathering.

As the Sect Leader of the Spirit Sect and the Alliance Hierarch of the Hidden Sect Alliance, Ding Fan needed to arrive early.

Ding Fan used Sword Control to travel, which was very convenient. Without any delay, he arrived at Serpent Island. At this moment, the small Serpent Island had already gathered no less than two to three thousand people.

And there was still one day left before the official start of the Hidden Sect Gathering. According to Ding Fan's calculations, the number of people on the island would likely continue to increase by then.

Upon arriving on the island, Ding Fan immediately went to find where the Spirit Sect was located.

This time, the Spirit Sect was led by Luv Shanqi and Zhao Shanhe.

"Sect Leader, you're finally here, trouble has arisen," Luv Shanqi said anxiously upon seeing Ding Fan.

Ding Fan was taken aback. "What happened?"

"Protector Zhao Shanhe, who had been arranging the Hidden Sect Gathering affairs as soon as he arrived on Serpent Island, didn't return overnight the day before yesterday, and when he did, he was severely injured," Luv Shanqi said.

Ding Fan was surprised.

Here, at Serpent Island, which is the location of the Immortal Sect's mountain gate, those on the island were almost all members of the Hidden Sect Alliance. Who could have injured Zhao Shanhe in such a place?

"Do you know who did it?" Ding Fan asked.

Luv Shanqi shook his head slightly. "Protector Zhao was gravely injured and hasn't regained consciousness, but many suspect it was the Immortal Sect..."

Ding Fan furrowed his brow. "Take me to see him first."
