Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 574 - Imminent Huge Battle



Chapter 574 - Imminent Huge Battle

While Chen Fan was advancing toward the ghost mountain, slaughtering demonic beasts and refining true dragon blood, a piece of news caused a major upheaval on Hidden Dragon Island.

The Battle Heaven Alliance had captured a disciple named Xiao Zhen.

They demanded that Chen Fan come to their base within three days or face the death of Xiao Zhen.

No one expected that the Battle Heaven Alliance’s hunt for Chen Fan would escalate in this way. Ever since they issued the killing order, many had searched for Chen Fan’s whereabouts for a whole month without finding a trace of him.

Frustration mounted within the Battle Heaven Alliance.

Luo Qian, who had recently joined the Battle Heaven Alliance, proposed a plan to Yin Jiu: capture Xiao Zhen and use him as leverage to force Chen Fan into the open. He was aware of the deep friendship between Chen Fan and Xiao Zhen.

When Chen Fan had severed all ties with Flying Eagle Alliance, Xiao Zhen had a fierce argument with Luo Qian and nearly fought him over it.

Yin Jiu was also a decisive person. He knew that if Chen Fan was intent on hiding, their chances of finding him would be very slim unless they turned the island upside down.

With fewer than twenty days remaining in the trial, it would be increasingly difficult, if not impossible, to eliminate Chen Fan in time.

Chen Fan had killed both of their vice alliance leaders, not giving any face to their Battle Heaven Alliance. Yin Jiu could not take that lying down. He was determined to kill Chen Fan. The killing order wasn’t a joke.

Thus, the Battle Heaven Alliance immediately sprang into action. Yin Jiu took action personally and captured Xiao Zhen alive.

Yin Jiu even made his alliance members capture everyone from the Great Chu Empire to use them to threaten Chen Fan. Consequently, many disciples from the Great Chu Empire found themselves in trouble.

“I didn’t expect the Battle Heaven Alliance would resort to such despicable tactics to force Chen Fan out. I wonder if he will comply.”

“Hehe, haven’t you heard? Those who accomplish great things, do not bother about the small details! I think Chen Fan has probably gone into hiding and wouldn’t dare to come out.”

“Xiao Zhen and those Great Chu Empire disciples sure are unlucky. They got caught just because they knew Chen Fan and came from the same empire. They’ll most likely die.”

“But you have to admit, Luo Qian is truly despicable and shameless! I heard he formed the Flying Eagle Alliance with Xiao Zhen and the Goddess Alliance’s Liu Xin previously. They were comrades in arms, and now he sold out his ex-comrade. Truly disgraceful.”

“Who cares? These matters have nothing to do with us. Let’s just treat it as watching a good show.”

“......”

On Hidden Dragon Island, many people were abuzz with the news. They speculated whether Chen Fan would appear or not.

......

By the time Chen Fan learned of this news, two days had already passed.

“Chen Fan!”

After killing a group of demonic beasts and refining about ten drops of true dragon blood, Chen Fan entered a valley to rest, only to encounter people from Heaven’s Equal Alliance.

Qi Feifan said, “You’re actually here. Do you know about what happened on the island recently?”

Puzzled, Chen Fan asked, “What happened? I was in secluded cultivation until two days ago. And I have been hunting demonic beasts here, in the depths, since then. Has something major happened?”

Li Yao came over and said, “So, you really don’t know. A month ago, the Battle Heaven Alliance issued a killing order against you. When they couldn’t find you, Luo Qian suggested capturing Xiao Zhen and some others from the Great Chu Empire to use as leverage. They demanded that you come to their base within three days to face your death. If you don’t, Xiao Zhen and the others will die in your place. Two days have already passed since the word spread.”

“What? The Battle Heaven Alliance is actually this despicable!” Chen Fan was astonished when he heard this.

The Battle Heaven Alliance searching for him was expected. But he didn’t expect them to resort to such underhanded tactics.

“It’s Luo Qian again. I spared his worthless life the last time on account of Xiao Zhen. I didn’t expect him to dare act up again. He’s really courting death!” Killing intent surged in Chen Fan’s eyes.

Chen Fan’s expression darkened, and he said, “My friendship with Xiao Zhen isn’t particularly deep, nor is my relationship with the others from the Great Chu Empire. Wouldn’t they have worked for nothing if I didn’t show up? And would even have to bear the reputation of killing the innocent indiscriminately?”

Li Yao said, “And you will be dubbed a coward. Someone who abandoned their friends to save their own hide.”

“What a ruthless tactic!” Chen Fan said coldly.

Li Yao said, “What will you do? There’s only one day left until the three-day deadline.”

Killing intent swirled around Chen Fan, and he said, “Since they want to die so badly, I’ll grant their wish!”

Chen Fan already had an irreconcilable feud with the Battle Heaven Alliance and had previously vowed to settle scores with them.

Given that, there was no turning back. He was prepared to face any danger, whether it was a dragon’s den or a tiger’s lair.

Although he wasn’t particularly close to Xiao Zhen or the other captured disciples, their deaths would be indirectly because of him, which troubled him. He didn’t want to be responsible for innocent lives lost.

“It seems like you’ve made up your mind. But remember, Yin Jiu is strong. He’s in the eight-revolution Golden Core realm, and the alliance base is packed with experts. It’ll be a tough fight,” Li Yao warned.

“Eight-revolution Golden Core, huh?” Chen Fan's gaze sharpened.

As expected, everyone was improving rapidly.

For instance, Li Yao’s strength had also increased significantly over the past month, likely nearing the nine-revolution Golden Core realm.

“I understand, but even if he’s an eight-revolution Golden Core, Yin Jiu has to die!” Chen Fan said with determination.

“You’re pretty confident,” Li Yao said calmly.

Chen Fan dismissed further discussion and asked, “Do you know where the Battle Heaven Alliance’s base is?”

Li Yao quickly provided the location of the base.

Chen Fan did not hesitate and launched himself into the air, his Wings of Rain Dragon unfurling and stirring up a storm. He shot off as a streak of light, vanishing from sight.

After a brief thought, Li Yao led the Heaven’s Equal Alliance members and headed toward the Battle Heaven Alliance’s base.

“We’re in for a treat! Come on, we’ll go take a look and see whether the Battle Heaven Alliance’s scheme would succeed or Chen Fan would slaughter them all!”

No one would want to miss a good show.
