Top-tier Unruly Master

At this moment, the leader of the Myriad Poison Sect, Ju Gang, was simply dumbfounded.

You see, as the leader of the Myriad Poison Sect, his cultivation wasn't weak—an Earth Level Sixth Grade, and with his mastery of various poisons, he could even contend against an Earth Level Peak martial artist.

However, Ju Gang hadn't expected that, even after being poisoned by his Paralysis Powder, Ding Fan would manage to pinch the edge of his sword between two fingers at the crucial moment.

First, Ju Gang was shocked that Ding Fan could still move despite being poisoned. Secondly, as an Earth Level Sixth Grade powerhouse himself, he could hardly believe that his full-force stab was effortlessly caught by this young man in his early twenties.

With no time left to be astonished, Ju Gang immediately tried to pull his longsword back from Ding Fan's grip. However, no matter how hard he tried, the longsword wouldn't budge—it seemed as though it had grown attached to Ding Fan's hand.

"Get lost!" Ding Fan suddenly shouted fiercely, and then he delivered a powerful kick.

Ju Gang hadn't yet recovered from the surprise Ding Fan had given him, so he couldn't dodge the kick in time.

Boom! Ju Gang's body was sent flying like a kicked soccer ball, soaring far into the distance.

Just as Ju Gang was sent flying, Ding Fan suddenly let out a piercing whistle.

The whistle was so sharp that it caused a painful ring in the ears of everyone around.

As the whistle from Ding Fan echoed, rustling sounds came again from the Snake Formation hidden in the grass.

Jing Yi, watching from the side, had her eyes wide open in disbelief. She doubted if what she was seeing was real.

The sound of Ding Fan's whistle actually directed the snakes in the grass. The venomous snakes all raised their heads, nodding towards Ding Fan eagerly.

Jing Yi was astounded. Could it be that Ding Fan actually had control over the Snake Formation?

While Jing Yi was still lost in her wild thoughts, the venomous snakes in the grass had already started frantically rushing towards where Ju Gang had fallen.

Seeing this, Jing Yi was convinced—indeed, Ding Fan really could command the Snake Formation! The thought was incredibly perplexing.

"Ah... Ah..." The multitude of snakes surrounded Ju Gang, and soon after, he let out a scream, and then died beyond any hope of revival.

The proud leader of the Myriad Poison Sect had ultimately met his end within his own Snake Formation—a fairly ironic twist of fate.

At this sight, Fang Ruo couldn't help but lose control over her expression.

The venerable leader of the Myriad Poison Sect, in just a few moves against Ding Fan, had been directly slain. Who would believe it if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes?

When facing others, Ju Gang was terrifying and ferocious like a ravenous wolf charging into a flock of sheep. But when facing Ding Fan, he was more like a little chick—utterly powerless.

The impression everyone got was that Ding Fan could slay him whenever he wished, no resistance whatsoever.

"So you few are also from the Myriad Poison Sect, aren't you!" After dealing with Ju Gang, Ding Fan turned to look at the four people Ju Gang had brought with him.

Seeing Ding Fan addressing them directly, the four couldn't help but shiver uncontrollably.

These four were nothing more than Ju Gang's lackeys. Now that their boss was slain by Ding Fan, what bluster could they possibly muster in front of him?

"Senior, we will leave the Myriad Poison Sect right now..."

One older man among the four suddenly knelt down and began repeatedly kowtowing to Ding Fan.

The other three didn't mock the older man's actions; facing a dread figure like Ding Fan, keeping their lives was worth a few bows of their heads.

Immediately, the other three followed suit, kneeling down and kowtowing to Ding Fan in quick succession.

"Senior, we were wrong, we were all coerced by Ju Gang, please spare us!" The four men knelt on the ground, repeatedly kowtowing and begging for mercy from Ding Fan.

The disciples of the Peach Blossom Female Sect found this scene immensely gratifying.

In the past, the leader of the Peach Blossom Female Sect had been slain by Ju Gang of the Myriad Poison Sect, and later Yin Ruyu took over the Sect.

During that period, the Peach Blossom Female Sect was like a beaten dog before the Myriad Poison Sect. Unable to avenge their Sect leader and daring not to provoke the members of the Myriad Poison Sect…

The disciples of the Peach Blossom Female Sect felt incredibly stifled in their hearts.

Now, seeing the Myriad Poison Sect's disciples kowtowing to Ding Fan, they felt an intense rush of elation. The Myriad Poison Sect had finally met their reckoning.

"Do you know? That young master Ding is Zhou Ruoran's husband."

"Ruoran is truly fortunate to have such a powerful man as her husband..."

Amidst the chatter, the female disciples began discussing Ding Fan and Zhou Ruoran. The general consensus, clear in their words, was that Ding Fan and Ruoran made a match made in heaven!

"All of you, get up," said Ding Fan, his tone detached as he addressed the four men kneeling on the ground.

After exchanging glances, the four of them painstakingly rose to their feet.

"All these years you've helped the Myriad Poison Sect commit atrocities. I had every right to slay each of you with a single stroke!" Ding Fan said, his eyes suddenly becoming sharp.

"Senior, we are nothing more than ants, please just let us go…"

The four people who had just managed to stand up knelt down again and kept kowtowing to Ding Fan incessantly.

After a long struggle, the four people finally got up from the ground again.

"Now I'm giving you all a chance to redeem yourselves," Ding Fan said indifferently to the four people. "As long as you do well, I actually have little interest in taking your lives."

Upon hearing that there was a chance for redemption, the four's eyes immediately widened.

As long as they could stay alive, doing a bit more of anything was not a problem for them.

"Which one of you four knows how to manipulate the Snake Formation?" Ding Fan suddenly asked.

Ding Fan's abrupt question left the four slightly stunned.

"I can control the Snake Formation, I am the best in our Sect at manipulating it."

"I'm quite powerful at handling the Snake Formation…"

"I'm the most skilled! As long as Young Master Ding Fan wants to know anything, I'll immediately tell you everything I know!"

At this moment, to show that they were better at controlling the Snake Formation, the four created a bit of chaos at the scene.

"Since all four of you can handle the Snake Formation, then from now on, you will use the Snake Formation to defend the peace around the Peach Blossom Female Sect," Ding Fan said, his voice not loud, but because he used True Qi to project, everyone present was able to hear and understand clearly.

The four were slightly taken aback; they hadn't expected Ding Fan to want to recruit them.

"What? Is something making you unhappy?" Ding Fan's tone grew deeper.

"How would we dare to be unhappy!" The eldest man saw a change in Ding Fan's expression and hurriedly agreed.

"Senior, we are willing to control the Snake Formation outside the gates of the Peach Blossom Female Sect and protect this land and its waters."

Upon hearing this, Ding Fan nodded in satisfaction; this was precisely what he wanted from them.

"Here, swallow these Pills." Ding Fan took out four Pills the size of rice grains from his storage ring at this moment.

These four Pills, shiny all over, were clearly very precious treasures.

"Senior, what are these?" The older man looked at the four Pills in Ding Fan's hand and asked with bafflement.

"These four Pills are called Heart Destroying Pills. If you harbor no deception, then these Pills will directly destroy your meridians," Ding Fan said lightly.

Destroy the meridians!

The four exchanged glances.

The meridians are like highways within the human body; if they are damaged, they greatly benefit one's future cultivation.

"What? Shall I feed them to you?" Ding Fan said with an indifferent tone.

"No... there's no need, Senior!"

Although facing such Pills, the four didn't want to take them, thinking of Ding Fan's ruthless methods left them without further protest.

In no time, the four deftly swallowed the four Pills.

"Get going. From now on, diligently guard the gates for fifteen years. If you devotedly pursue the path of good during these fifteen years, I might choose to let you off the hook," Ding Fan told the four Martial Artists.

At this point, the four no longer had any objections, and obediently manipulated the Snake Formation handed over by Ding Fan as they left the gates in a grand manner.

The disciples of the Peach Blossom Female Sect were so excited at this scene they almost jumped for joy.

As it had been known that those poisonous snakes were sent to deal with them, and now, not only were they spared from attack, but they were also protected by them.

"Ding Fan is so awesome, so amazing!"

"I wonder if Ruoran would mind taking me as a servant, I'd be completely satisfied to die if I could even be a maid by Ding Fan's side."

The Female Sect disciples buzzed with excitement.

At this moment, Ding Fan strode toward Jing Yi.

"Ding Fan, this time, I owe you a big favor," Jing Yi said seriously.

If it weren't for Ding Fan stepping in to break the poisonous snake Great Formation, perhaps now, he, Jing Yi, and many disciples in the Sect would have already been dead.

Ding Fan smiled faintly at Jing Yi. "My wife considers herself a disciple of the Peach Blossom Female Sect, so naturally, I am also half a member of your Sect. I am pleased to be able to help you!"

After exchanging a few formalities with Jing Yi, he then arranged for the disciples to clean up the battlefield in front of the gate.

After these arrangements, Jing Yi finally turned to Ding Fan and Fang Ruo...
