Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Seeing Chen Fan turn the cinnabar-marked woman and the others into meat paste with a palm strike in a flash, Chang Xuan and the others were rendered speechless.

Just moments ago, they had been utterly overwhelmed by those same enemies, completely outmatched.

Yet, in front of Chen Fan, the people who had driven them to despair were no more than ants, easily slain.

They had cultivated for hundreds, if not over a thousand years. Yet, their strength was worlds apart from Chen Fan's—still just a junior. The contrast left them red with shame.

Chang Xuan walked over and said, "Junior Brother Chen Fan, we're truly grateful you stepped in."

Chen Fan waved his hand and replied, "We're all disciples from the same sect; it's only right. Here, take some recovery elixirs. Quickly consume them and heal your injuries."

Chang Xuan and the others didn't refuse them. After consuming the elixirs, they gradually recovered on the spot.

They had been lucky to cross paths with Chen Fan; others were not so fortunate.

Killings were happening everywhere throughout the core area.

Moreover, upon learning of the situation, many rogue cultivators had chosen to side with the evildoers, eager to exploit the chaos for profit. They began hunting the elites of the major factions.

The core area had fallen into utter chaos.

At first, the major factions were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. But once they grasped the situation, they regrouped, forming several powerful forces to fight against the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and the foreign forces.

Still, those who encountered individuals like Xue Yin or Wang Zhong—who were near or already at the Legendary level—were simply doomed. They could try to fight the others; against Xue Yin and other Legends, it was basically guaranteed death.

Leading Chang Xuan and the others, Chen Fan began eradicating the people from the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and the foreign forces. And he didn't forget to decimate the rogue cultivators who tried to fish in troubled waters.

Along the way, he saved quite a few people, and their group steadily grew stronger.

However, Chen Fan was not happy in the slightest. Judging by the current situation, Operation Nip in the Bud had already engulfed the entire core area.

Furthermore, he discovered that many so-called allies from the major factions were actually spies planted by the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect, exploding like bombs at the worst possible moment. The losses were devastating.

It was now clear: the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect hadn't been idle during their three thousand years of silence. Instead, they had been planting saboteurs inside the various major forces in preparation, so they could be put to use one day.

Worse still, many rogue cultivators were actually from the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect, and they were all old monsters with high and deep cultivation.

As Operation Nip in the Bud unfolded, the elite forces within the core area found themselves in a dire situation.

Some major sects and cults had already lost entire teams.

A look of worry flickered in Chen Fan's eyes.I wonder what the situation is like for Senior Brothers and Sister now?

Aside from him, the Peerless Peak had also sent Yan Weiyi, Zhuge Mingyue, Zhu Yue, and Jian Qi into the core area.

Among these four, Yan Weiyi was the strongest, being in the quasi-Legendary realm.

Zhuge Mingyue and Zhu Yue were in the Greater Peak Manifestation realm. As for Jian Qi, he had only just advanced to the Lesser Peak Manifestation realm.

With such cultivation levels, they didn't have much advantage among the people who entered the core area.

If this blood calamity hadn't broken out, perhaps these people wouldn't be in much danger.

However, as calamity and chaos erupted, Chen Fan was worried that Yan Weiyi and the others might be in danger of losing their lives if they came across Wang Zhong, Xia Hou, and the others.

During this period, he led this group and went around killing the disciples of the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and the foreign forces. He even killed people like Bu Qianfan, Zhou Qian, and the others when he ran into them.

Chen Fan saved many people, but Yan Weiyi and the others were not among them.

Thus, he grew more and more worried about their situation.

Among the True Martial Academy disciples he had met or saved, few had met them. Unfortunately, those few had met the four Peerless Peak freaks before the chaos broke out. They only met face to face before going off on their own to search for opportunities.

......

Five figures stood on top of a tall peak that pierced the sky.

These five people were none other than Xue Yin, Wang Zhong, and the others.

Xue Yin said, "In the past few days, we've launched attacks everywhere. Several of our planted bombs within major factions went off, killing many. But now, they've started to regroup and fight back. We've also lost quite a few on our side."

Wang Zhong glanced at the three from the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and said, "On our side, Bu Qianfan, Zhou Qian, and the others are dead. Only Chen Fan could have killed them. But we've had no word from the teams that might've run into him. Given his strength, they wouldn't survive, much less report back."

The deaths of Bu Qianfan, Zhou Qian, and the others didn't affect him at all.

After all, they didn't belong to the same force to begin with.

Their alliance existed for one reason only: a shared goal.

Mo Yue said, "Is there any news on Chen Fan's senior brothers and sister? The survivors from the major factions have mostly banded together. It's tough to make any more major gains."

"So, we should be setting our sights on Chen Fan at this time. He must die. Anyone else can be spared, but he cannot walk out of the core area alive."

Xue Yin nodded and said, "You're right. So, going forward, our focus will be on finding Chen Fan and his senior brothers and sister. As for killing the other elites, if we encounter them, kill them if possible. If not, just forget it. The losses we suffered aren't small either. We need to preserve some of our strength."

Swish!

Suddenly, someone flashed over like lightning.

As soon as this person landed, he dropped a huge bomb. "We have news on Chen Fan's senior brothers and sister."

"What? Say that again!"

The expressions of the five immediately turned serious.

The newcomer repeated, "We've tracked them to a blind valley, but it's protected by a powerful formation. Our people couldn't capture Yan Weiyi and the others."

"Hahahaha, good, good, good. It's good enough that we've found them. Since we now know their whereabouts, they can't escape even if they had wings. Let's go, bring us over. I want to see exactly what kind of formation it is!"

Energized by the news, Xue Yin and the others shot into the sky, racing toward the valley.
