Chapter 1568 - 1566: Lan Zhengqing, You Must Apologize to Qiu Xi!
Chapter 1568 - 1566: Lan Zhengqing, You Must Apologize to Qiu Xi!
Lin Fan smiled gravely, his face unchanged, and slowly bent down to pick up the bloody severed arm from beside his feet.
"Lan Shao, are you looking for this?"
Lan Zhengqing heard the voice and immediately stopped calling out. He stared blankly at Lin Fan, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
Anger.
Resentment.
Grievance.
Irritability.
Fear.
Because he didn’t even know what he had encountered, it happened in an instant that his arm was cleanly severed and landed at Lin Fan’s feet.
This unknown phenomenon was simply terrifying.
Chilling.
Hair-raising!
Lin Fan was clearly just a Ninth Layer Supreme of Ancient, but his speed was astonishingly fast!
He was already behind Lin Fan’s head and had already made his move!
In less than a thousandth of a breath, he could have killed Lin Fan.
But at that very moment.
In that mere thousandth of a breath time, Lin Fan could still form an absolute counterattack, an absolute monster!
It was terrifying.
Even now, he couldn’t understand how his arm was severed, and how he lost the confrontation!
However.
Now he didn’t want to delve deeper; after all, his arm was already severed. He just wanted to quickly retrieve his severed arm, hoping it could be reattached.
Lan Zhengqing trembled as he stood up from the ground, extending his other hand as he stumbled, taking two steps towards Lin Fan.
"Give me... give me back my arm..."
His voice carried a plea, mixed with anger, filled with unease...
It was as if a high deity had fallen from the altar, making everyone realize that this revered god was merely an ordinary person.
The severed arm was like an abandoned crown, revealing the truth to everyone.
Among people, there is equality, similarity, and no distinction between high and low.
No matter who it is, facing such a situation will result in panic and helplessness.
Even Lan Zhengqing is no exception.
"Give it to me..."
A gulping sound echoed, as Lan Zhengqing heavily swallowed, his eyes wandering aimlessly, not daring to look at Lin Fan directly.
He reached out tremblingly, attempting to retrieve his arm from Lin Fan.
"Give me back my arm... give it to me..."
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows, weighing the arm. "Lan Shao, are you begging me? This isn’t the attitude of someone begging. You need to speak properly, not act like you’re invincible as before. You must bow your head, apologize, admit your mistakes; only then will I consider returning your arm. Unless, you don’t want your arm anymore, then you can continue speaking to me in your usual tone."
Lan Zhengqing’s severed arm was bleeding, soaking his entire body, appearing extremely miserable.
Listening to Lin Fan’s words, although his expression was somewhat dazed, not knowing what happened, he still understood Lin Fan’s meaning.
"What did you say?"
Lan Zhengqing gritted his teeth, speaking viciously. Forcing Lan Zhengqing to bow and apologize was more torturous than death.
"Impossible... You can’t even think about it..."
"Oh? So determined? Do you really think I won’t dare to do anything to you? I’ve already managed to sever one of your arms; do you think I can’t decapitate you?!"
"Just try it!"
"..."
Lin Fan didn’t actually try; he merely smiled lightly.
Truth is, he was bluffing.
He didn’t have the ability to cut off Lan Zhengqing’s head; if he did, he’d have done it long ago, not waited until now.
So.
He was simply testing Lan Zhengqing, surprisingly finding that Lan Zhengqing’s stubborn temper wasn’t easily deceived.
"Forget it, forget it! Lan Shao, don’t be angry, I was joking with you." Lin Fan treated Lan Zhengqing’s severed arm like a Jingu Bang, spinning it continuously, splattering blood from the wound everywhere, covering the snow like goji berries dropping on it, surprisingly creating an artistic effect.
However, while Lin Fan was having fun, Lan Zhengqing was furious.
Someone actually treated his arm as a toy to play with; this was clearly an insult to him!
A blatant insult!
Lin Fan... This damn guy!
"You damn well stop it!" Lan Zhengqing erupted in anger, about to rush over with an arrow-like step.
But as he lifted his foot, Lin Fan immediately reacted.
Holding up the severed arm, posing as if about to exert force, threatening.
"Lan Shao, you better not come over casually. Although you’ve lost an arm, you’re still a Middle Heavenly Venerate; that doesn’t change just because of your severed arm, so I’m still afraid of you. If you casually rush over, and I get nervous and accidentally crush your arm, don’t blame me..."
"Lin Fan, you damn..."
Lan Zhengqing was utterly infuriated, about to be driven insane by Lin Fan’s antics!
But Lin Fan wasn’t wrong; if he really rushed over and caused his severed arm to be destroyed, would he have to live with one arm for the rest of his life?!
If he retrieved the severed arm now and immediately returned to Wenyu City, perhaps a doctor could still save it, preserving the arm.
"Fine! Okay! Calm down, I won’t go over, and you shouldn’t move my arm around!"
Lan Zhengqing took a deep breath, raising his hand to show he wouldn’t go over, urging everyone to stay calm.
"No problem."
Lin Fan smiled, unable to resist spinning the arm again. Seeing Lan Zhengqing’s angry face, he quickly pulled his head back, smiling sheepishly while blinking.
Qiu Xi, watching from the side, was utterly stunned!
Despite not blinking, she couldn’t make sense of how Lan Zhengqing’s arm was severed; it was simply inconceivable!
It was as if it suddenly broke, with no warning whatsoever.
One moment it was intact.
The next, it dropped to the ground!
Truly miraculous!
In the Five Elements Realm, only top masters could approach Lan Zhengqing’s side, while someone who could touch him was deemed a prodigy,
And those capable of severely injuring Lan Zhengqing were believed by the Five Elements Realm to be yet to be born!
But now.
Lan Zhengqing was actually defeated by a kid from the Sumeru Continent, someone considered an ant by them, losing an arm!
If this isn’t divine intervention, what is?!
Qiu Xi’s heart was both excited and moved.
Lin Fan successfully defeating Lan Zhengqing meant that those considered ants were entirely capable of defeating someone from the five major clans, living proudly without needing to watch others’ expressions!
They could confidently stand tall on the main roads of the Five Elements Realm, with no one able to look down on them!
"Lin Fan..."
"What’s up?"
"What... is happening here?"
"I’ll tell you later."
Lin Fan mysteriously winked, smiling as he spoke. Qiu Xi nodded and didn’t ask further.
Lan Zhengqing took heavy breaths, blazing eyes fixed on Lin Fan, angrily growling in a low voice, "Lin Fan, what exactly do you want? What must you do to return my arm?"
"You want your arm, is that right?"
"Of course!"
"Hmm... Okay, I can return this severed arm to you, since it’s useless for me to hold onto it. However..."
Lin Fan’s tone shifted, a cold smile emerging at the corner of his mouth.
"First, you must apologize to Qiu Xi, sincerely apologize for attacking her earlier, and seek her forgiveness."
