50: Chapter 50 Returning to the Northern Emperor, Doing What Needs to Be Done!
Indeed.
At this critical juncture.
Li Fan had finally arrived!
"This...!"
At this moment, looking at the murderous Li Fan before him and the headless corpse of his brother nearby.
The remaining man's expression changed drastically, so terrified that even his voice was trembling.
This terrifying speed!
This terrifying power!
Just what kind of monster was this?!
Was he Transcendent Rank?!
Intense fear left him without the slightest will to fight.
He immediately spun around, preparing to flee the scene.
However, in the next second.
The sound of a sonic boom rang out.
Li Fan's murderous face appeared before him once again.
At the same time.
One of his arms was ripped clean off.
"Ah!!"
The intense pain caused him to let out an agonizing howl, completely losing his previous arrogance.
"You haven't answered my question yet. Did I say you could leave?"
Li Fan stared coldly into the man's eyes and spoke slowly.
"You... you dare to kill me?!"
"The He Family is backing me! I'm Young Master He Wenguang's man!"
The fear of death caused him to instinctively bring up his backing.
Upon hearing this, Li Fan's movements indeed came to a halt.
Seeing this, the man felt as if he had caught a life-saving straw.
"Scared now, aren't you? That's the He Family! If you know what's good for you, let me go!"
However, it was clear.
This would be the last sentence he would ever speak in this life.
Because immediately after, Li Fan removed a miniature camera from his collar and slowly placed it into his space ring.
"I was waiting for you to say exactly that!"
Li Fan's figure flickered.
With a single punch, he reduced the man to a bloody mist!
Though he was incredibly furious, he remained rational.
Ma Xiu and Lu Qilai had said that without evidence, the academy couldn't take action.
Well, now there was evidence!
After dealing with the two men.
Li Fan immediately turned back to look at Gu Ling and the other two.
Currently, the shock on the faces of Gu Ling's group had yet to fade.
Indeed.
The scene just now...
...was truly quite impactful!
Those two Awakened Ones who had suppressed them until they couldn't breathe were actually as weak as two ants before Li Fan!
In just these few short days...
...Li Fan's strength had grown again!
Amidst their shock, smiles finally surfaced on the trio's faces.
After holding out for so long...
...reinforcements had finally arrived.
"Lingling, Cousin, Zhen Zhen, how are you all?"
Li Fan leaped over, rushing to them. He pulled out all the healing medicine he had on him, his face full of anxiety.
That was truly a close call.
If he had arrived even one step later...
...Gu Ling and the others would have lost their lives.
"I'm fine, Brother-in-law, not dead yet!"
"I'm okay, give more of the medicine to Zhen Zhen, she needs it more."
Gu Quan coughed up two mouthfuls of blood and forced a smile as he spoke.
Watching this, Li Fan truly didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Even at a time like this, he was still trying to act tough.
However, Gu Quan wasn't wrong.
Because Ning Zhenzhen was severely injured and her physical strength was exhausted; before she could say much, she had already fallen unconscious.
Li Fan gave Ning Zhenzhen his best quality healing medicine and settled her down before coming to Gu Ling's side and pulling her into his arms.
Compared to Gu Quan and Ning Zhenzhen, Gu Ling wasn't really injured; she was just completely physically exhausted.
"Lingling, I'm sorry, this is all my fault."
"But believe me, something like this will never happen a second time!"
Li Fan's tone was full of apology, and at the same time, he gave a promise.
Gu Ling's eyes were slightly red as she leaned into Li Fan's ear and whispered, "It's not your fault. Don't forget, your business is my business too."
"It's just that Cousin and Zhen Zhen were dragged into this."
Hearing this, Li Fan was moved. He nodded, the apology on his face deepening.
It was true.
Gu Quan, Ning Zhenzhen, Ma Xiu, and Lu Qilai were all victims of collateral damage.
Thinking about how they ended up like this because of him...
...Li Fan's gaze immediately became sharp and fierce.
"Don't worry, I won't let their blood be shed in vain!"
Every debt has its debtor.
Now...
...is just the beginning!
A short while later.
After a brief reorganization.
Li Fan carried Gu Ling on his back, and Gu Quan carried Ning Zhenzhen, as they prepared to leave the secret realm.
The healing medicine on Li Fan was limited, after all.
If they wanted to recover as quickly as possible, they had to find the healers at the North Emperor University infirmary.
Before the group had gone far...
...two middle-aged men with extremely powerful auras came flying toward them.
Li Fan initially thought they were sent by He Wenguang and was about to attack.
After a brief exchange, he learned the truth.
It turned out they were sent by Di Yun to rescue them.
Unfortunately, due to the distance, they were a step too late.
If they had waited for these two to save them, the bodies would probably be rotting by now.
But regardless, even though they didn't help, the intention was still appreciated.
This favor from Di Yun...
...he would remember it.
...
Back at North Emperor University.
On the path.
The figures of Li Fan's group of four were exceptionally conspicuous at this moment.
Such a sight...
...indeed attracted many onlookers and discussions.
"Look, that's Li Fan! And Gu Quan!"
"Holy crap, what's the situation? Is that thing with He Wenguang about to be confirmed with hard evidence?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, He Wenguang really didn't do things the right way!"
"It looks like Gu Quan and the others are quite seriously injured. If it's really proven, I wonder how the school will handle it."
"Dammit! If I were Li Fan, I'd go settle the score with He Wenguang right now! Daring to touch my woman, I'd skin him alive!"
"Pfft, you idiot. He Wenguang is an S-Rank Awakener after all. His mentor is Vulcan, a big shot second only to the deans, and he's very protective of his own."
"If he really dares to move against He Wenguang at school, whether he can even touch He Wenguang is a question. And I guarantee, the one getting punished in the end will definitely be Li Fan!"
"I hate to admit it, but it's true. Li Fan has the halo of being the number one New Student and having the Vice Dean as his mentor, but that's still not as tangible as an S-Rank Talent."
"Sigh, Li Fan is really miserable. Of all the people to offend, why did he have to offend He Wenguang?"
"Ah? Why did I see some posts on the forum saying this wasn't He Wenguang's doing?"
"Who knows? Let the bullets fly for a while."
...
Regarding these discussions...
...Li Fan didn't care at all.
His current plan was to get Gu Ling, Ning Zhenzhen, and Gu Quan to the infirmary as quickly as possible.
And then do what he had to do.
Before long.
The group arrived at the infirmary.
Ma Xiu and Lu Qilai had already rushed over.
Seeing that everyone was okay, the two grown men were overjoyed, and their eyes turned red with emotion.
Li Fan had no intention of laughing at them for this.
After all, for them...
...this was indeed a life-and-death ordeal.
"Qilai, is there any progress on the matter I asked you to look into?"
Li Fan pulled Lu Qilai aside and asked calmly.
Lu Qilai hesitated for a moment before leaning in and whispering the information he had gathered.
After receiving the news.
Li Fan nodded and then looked at Gu Quan and the others lying on the hospital beds, ready to receive treatment.
"You guys rest for a bit. I'm going out to buy some fruit."
Gu Quan immediately heard something wrong.
"Li Fan, don't be impulsive! Even if you want revenge, you can't do it inside the academy!"
Li Fan just smiled and waved his hand.
"Don't worry, I know that. I'm really just going to buy some fruit."
Hearing this.
Gu Quan and the others finally felt at ease.
But as soon as Li Fan walked out of the room, a flash of killing intent suddenly surfaced in his eyes.
Impulsive?
He didn't know the meaning of impulsive.
He only knew...
...that when an ordinary man is enraged, blood will splatter within five paces!
Of course, he couldn't kill inside the academy; there were too many restrictions.
But even if he couldn't kill, he had to make the other party experience a pain they would remember for a lifetime!
After Li Fan left.
Lu Qilai was tossing and turning in the room, pacing back and forth, his brow never unfurrowing.
The others didn't know what Li Fan went to do.
But he knew.
He was already starting to regret telling Li Fan that information.
