<h4>Chapter 622 - Life is Like a Dream</h4>


    When Chen Fan killed Old Ancestor Qiu, the corners of Nie Gang and Yang Wanli’s eyes twitched intensely, theirplexions turning pale with horror.


    Old Ancestor Qiu, an expert who had dominated Shunan Prefecture for centuries, was dead, just like that.


    Before he had even reached the Divine Nascent realm, Old Ancestor Qiu was already a great figure of Shunan Prefecture.


    And now, Chen Fan had killed him so easily. The two of them couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sympathy, knowing they might share the same fate.


    Nie Gang and Yang Wanli were no longer as indifferent and confident as before. Their sense of superiority and their disregard for Chen Fan had vanished. With forced smiles, they said, “It’s a misunderstanding, little brother. This is all a misunderstanding.”


    Fear gripped them.


    Chen Fan was a devil.


    They had never seen such a monstrous genius. Three Divine Nascent realm experts had worked together to fight him, but he had dealt with them all with just his nine-revolution Golden Core realm cultivation.


    He was too incredible!


    And too terrifying!


    Their brief sympathy for Old Ancestor Qiu’s tragic death quickly turned to hatred.


    If Old Ancestor Qiu hadn’t dragged them into this mess, they wouldn’t be in this humiliating position, groveling for mercy.


    “Misunderstanding?” Chen Fan chuckled, his voice dripping with ridicule. “I don’t think so.”


    Earlier, they had looked down on him, treating him like an ant they could crush at any moment.


    Now, they were iming it was all a misunderstanding. They were just afraid and wanted to beg for mercy. Did they really think the world worked that way?


    “I had no feud with you, but you joined hands with that old bastard to kill me. Now that you know you’re no match for me, you’re saying this is all a misunderstanding? Did you think I would let you go just because you said it was a misunderstanding?”


    As Chen Fan neared the end of his sentence, his voice turned icy, and a terrifying killing intent surged out.


    Nie Gang and Yang Wanli’s hearts pounded under Chen Fan’s oppressive aura, an intense pressure suffocating them.


    Nie Gang revealed an ugly smile and said, “Little brother, this matter is our fault. We made a mistake because that old bastard deceived us. We’re willing to apologize and offer you a satisfactorypensation.”


    “That’s right, it’s all because of that damned old bastard. He truly deserved to die.” Yang Wanli agreed, his forehead covered in sweat.


    “Apologize? Compensate? Toote! Chen Fan shook his head coldly, closing in on them step by step. “The moment you attacked me, your death was already certain!”


    Nie Gang and Yang Wanli’s expressions changed drastically. Their gazes flickered as they kept retreating.


    “Little brother, why force us into a corner? We already know our fault and are willing topensate you for our mistakes. Do you really have to drive us to our deaths?” Nie Gang said.


    Chen Fan smiled coldly and replied, “Drive you to your death? What a joke! Would you have let me go if I weren’t this strong? None of us are idiots. If admitting fault andpensating aftermitting wrong worked, what use do we have for martial prowess!”


    “So, you mean to kill us or die trying?” Nie Gang’s voice turned cold.


    “Kill you or die trying?” Chen Fan scoffed coldly, shaking his head. With a look of disdain, he added, “Are pieces of trash like you worthy?”


    Chen Fan took a decisive step forward, his majestic aura pressing down on them.


    Ruthlessness shed across Nie Gang and Yang Wanli’s eyes. Sincepensating Chen Fan would not work and Chen Fan was determined to kill them, they immediately abandoned any pretense of begging for forgiveness.


    “Since that is the case, little bastard, we’ll fight you!”


    Nie Gang and Yang Wanli unleashed their full power. There was no other option; they had to fight Chen Fan with everything they had, risking their lives.


    “Kill!”


    Their resolve ignited their auras, which boiled violently as they tapped into their true primeval.


    “Today... You’ll die!” Chen Fan’s eyes were icy. Killing intent swept out from him. He would never show mercy to his enemies.


    <i>Rumble!</i>


    Chen Fan unleashed his full strength. The Purgatory Divine Halberd gleamed with a deadly light.


    Nie Gang and Yang Wanli suffered heavy injuries again. The strong odor of blood filled the air as their fresh blood spattered.


    Despite them both going all out and putting up a desperate fight, it was useless in front of Chen Fan.


    An incense stick’s worth of timeter, Chen Fan managed to kill Nie Gang and Yang Wanli.


    With a cold smile, Chen Fan flew off toward Shunan Prefecture.


    ......


    In Shunan Prefecture, the Nie, Yang, and Qiu ns were the three strongest ns.


    Their power wasn’t just due to having the most Divine Nascent realm experts; each of these ns also boasted second-level Divine Nascent realm experts among their ranks.


    Nie n!


    Suddenly, a gigantic golden palm descended from the sky and came crashing down. The air exploded, shocking most of the Nie n members and creating a buzz in their ears, leaving them dazed.


    “Who dares toe to our Nie n and act so recklessly? Are they seeking death?”


    The Nie n’s Divine Nascent realm experts rose into the sky almost immediately. Seeing the gigantic golden palm, their expressions immediately darkened. Theyunched attacks one after another.


    <i>Rumble!</i>


    Their attacks proved futile. The immense golden palm smashed down violently, causing the experts to vomit blood.


    “Nie n dared to join hands with the Qiu n to kill me. You all deserve death!”


    Chen Fan appeared in the skies above the Nie n like a god and attacked again.


    The attack leveled the Nie npoundpletely. All Nie n experts died horribly. Chen Fan seized their wealth, which they had umted over thousands of years.


    The same scene yed out at the Yang n.


    Amidst miserable screams and wails, Chen Fan wiped out the prestigious n that had dominated Shunan Prefecture for millennia.


    The Yang n’s Divine Nascent realm experts were like ants in front of Chen Fan.


    He even killed the so-called prodigy from Yang n with a single p, as if swatting a fly.


    Lastly, it was the Qiu n’s turn.


    As Qiu n members awaited good news from Old Ancestor Qiu, disaster struck. A massive golden palm descended from the sky, bombarding the Qiu n mansion and cracking the earth open.


    Chen Fan had already dealt with their Divine Nascent realm experts in the forest. So, unlike the Nie and Yang ns, which offered slight resistance, the Qiu n fell powerless.


    After the Qiu, Nie, and Yang ns were wiped out and their great fortune was taken, Chen Fan left. No one could or dared to stop him.


    The people of Shunan Prefecture recognized Chen Fan.


    They knew that Old Ancestor Qiu had spent a fortune to hire Nie Gang and Yang Wanli, both second-level Divine Nascent realm experts, to support him. Chen Fan''s return to Shunan Prefecture without Nie Gang and the others made the situation clear.


    “How terrifying, it’s only been five days. Five days ago, Old Ancestor Qiu chased this man away. Now he''s returned and destroyed the three great ns. Old Ancestor Qiu and the others must have met a terrible fate."


    “What a ruthless character! The Nie n and Yang n, really... They sacrificed everything for trivial gain."


    "Good! The three great ns are gone, and Nie Gang and the others are dead. Shunan Prefecture belongs to us now."


    “......”


    The destruction of the three great ns instantly shook the entire Shunan Prefecture, setting off a terrifying storm.


    No one could have predicted that Qiu Bao''s insults to Hong Domain martial artists would trigger events leading to the fall of the three great ns. Life truly resembled a dream.
