Top-tier Unruly Master

Ding Fan rode his sword to the opposite side of the lake. This place was already Changsheng's territory. Ding Fan scanned the area with his Divine Sense.

The Formation set up around Changsheng was extremely rigorous, making it very difficult to infiltrate without anyone noticing.

However, Ding Fan was not discouraged, as he was now patiently searching for a vulnerability in the Great Formation to stealthily work his way through.

Ding Fan's Divine Sense was fully deployed as he followed along the Great Formation.

After walking for about seven to eight hundred meters, Ding Fan distinctly felt that the defense here was much weaker compared to other areas.

Without wasting any time, he immediately began studying how to create an opening and then enter Changsheng's domain without raising any alarms.

Although in the Cultivation World, Ding Fan's ability in Array Refining was only that of a very ordinary character, on Earth, he could definitely be considered an Array Refining Master.

Ding Fan kept taking out materials from his storage ring, and after about half an hour, he finally managed to tear open a slit in the complex Great Formation.

After the slit was torn open, there was no sound, and the people inside didn't notice anything.

"I always feel that the guest Changsheng has invited is a bit problematic."

"Oh? What's the problem?"

"That guy doesn't seem to be here just for a visit. In my opinion, it looks like he is here hiding from something…"

"Now that you mention it, I also find it strange. When I went to deliver a food box to Jin Minchong, he asked me to leave quickly after putting the things down…"…

Just as Ding Fan had breached the Defensive Array and entered Changsheng's place, the conversation between two servants could be heard not far away.

The place where Ding Fan entered was surrounded by peach trees, and the spot where the two were talking was deep within the peach blossoms, so it was not easy to be discovered.

Seeing that people were talking about Jin Minchong as soon as he entered, Ding Fan held his breath and immediately found a spot to conceal himself.

"Today, while I was cleaning Jin Minchong's room, I accidentally found a bead…" one of the servants said and held out a bead the size of a soybean in his hand.

"What is this?" the other servant asked, seemingly clueless.

"This seems to be some sort of treasure, and it looked like Jin Minchong stole it from somewhere. He's been very secretive, not wanting others to know he has this bead."

"I think we should hand this bead over to our leader…"

"That's what I think too. If Jin Minchong has really done something to betray our Changsheng, then we should just kill him directly."

...

As the two people who looked like servants were still discussing, a chilling voice came from one side.

"If this bead ends up in the hands of your leader, I am indeed doomed… But you will definitely not have the chance to deliver this bead to your leader."

"Jin Minchong?"

The two men turned towards the voice and immediately saw Jin Minchong, who had emerged from behind a peach tree at some unknown time.

Jin Minchong?

Ding Fan hadn't expected to be so fortunate as to encounter Jin Minchong immediately upon breaking into the Great Formation.

Jin Minchong appeared to be no more than twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with a tall figure and handsome features.

Ding Fan found it hard to associate this person with the likes of traitors.

Ding Fan didn't act rashly, he just quietly observed from the side.

Impatience can't get you hot tofu...

"Jin Minchong... respected guest... how come you're here?"

Clearly, the two servants hadn't expected to encounter Jin Minchong here, so they were inexplicably flustered.

"Do you know how I usually deal with people who steal from me?" Jin Minchong glanced indifferently at the two servants beside him.

The two servants looked at each other but remained silent.

"Usually, I kill them," Jin Minchong stated flatly.

"You... you wouldn't dare, we are men of the lord, and this is our lord's territory. To kill a man on his territory..." one of the servants said.

However, before that servant could finish his words, Jin Minchong's right hand suddenly swung out...

Splurt... Blood spurted out, and the speaking servant's throat was completely severed before he could finish his sentence.

Blood flowed all over the ground in an instant.

The servant standing on the side was stunned; he truly hadn't expected Jin Minchong to strike like that in Changsheng.

"You... if you kill on this ground, the lord won't let you off..." the other servant said, trembling.

Jin Minchong smiled faintly. "Do you think your lord would fall out with me over two lowly servants?"

After hearing Jin Minchong's words, the servant's complexion turned extremely ugly.

Jin Minchong continued. "After you die, I can simply say that you two stole from me and were slain after I discovered you. I think your lord is a wise man; he will not meddle in this affair. So, in the end, your deaths would be in vain."

"You..." The other servant was at a loss for words.

If Jin Minchong indeed claimed that, the lord really wouldn't stand up for two servants caught thieving. In the end, there would be no one to prove their innocence.

"Blame yourselves for touching my things..." Jin Minchong's eyes suddenly became intense. "Touching my belongings, there is only one path left for you—death."

As Jin Minchong said this, his right hand turned into a Hand Blade and slashed straight towards the servant's throat.

Jin Minchong's cultivation was not weak; at least a Grade Eight of the Earth Level, he was definitely a powerful combatant—a fighter with such power would, without warning, strike down a servant, how could the servant possibly survive?

But just as Jin Minchong was certain his Hand Blade would finish the servant, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

The Hand Blade that Jin Minchong swung towards the servant was also instantly caught by someone.

Jin Minchong was taken aback; his Hand Blade hadn't been held back, intending to kill, yet someone had managed to get there with the fastest movement technique and catch the blade...

Jin Minchong frowned deeply and looked at the person who caught his Hand Blade.

The person who caught Jin Minchong's Hand Blade, how could it be anyone else but Ding Fan?

The reason Ding Fan had chosen to intervene was that he believed the bead in Jin Minchong's hand would definitely have a very bad effect on Jin Minchong.

So Ding Fan intervened and saved the servant...
