Bab 50: Master Tan?
There were many carts of vegetables and goods lined up, waiting to be unloaded.
Senior menial disciple Liang goes out to procure the essentials and returns once every week.
"Wait, why are you guys so free today?" Senior menial disciple Liang asked when he saw so many menial disciples crowding around him.
"Most of the other senior menial disciples are helping out at Alchemy Peak with an important batch of pills they're preparing."
"Right now, you're the only senior menial disciple around."
"No wonder you guys are slacking," Senior menial disciple Liang said and gave out a good laugh.
When Lin Fan heard the conversation, he felt something was wrong.
This timing somehow seemed too impeccable.
He took a glance through all the carts.
Couldn't see much as most were filled with vegetables or goods.
When Senior menial disciple Liang saw Lin Fan looking at the carts, he asked, "Who is that guy?"
"He is one of the new menial disciples, has some useless cultivation root."
"Don't bother with him."
"Tell us about your adventures in the brothels instead."
"Yeah, that's more exciting."
The group continued to chat among themselves.
Meanwhile, Lin Fan was listening intently with his Rabbit Hearing ability.
Starting from the noisy chatter to the squeaking of wheels when the carts were pushed into the storage area.
Then into the storage area, the loud thuds when the vegetables were thrown onto the ground.
Suddenly it all stopped.
Silence inside the storage area.
After a moment, he heard footsteps walking towards them, making a muted footstep sound as if the ground was wet and sticky.
Lin Fan stepped back.
Whatever it was, unless it was going after him, he didn't want to get involved with what was coming.
The door to the storage area flew open and chaos ensued.
Two unfortunate menial disciples standing in the way got hit and the impact sent them flying a few meters away.
"What... Who are you!"
"Argh..."
"Run!"
The menial disciples went into panic and didn't know what to do next.
"Liang, help us!" With the danger at hand, they didn't have the mind to bother with formalities anymore, addressing him directly by surname.
Senior menial disciple Liang smirked, grabbed the man's throat, and tore it out.
With blood oozing out and the man struggling to breathe, it made an unsettling bubbling sound.
This sent the crowd into a bigger frenzy.
Their friendly senior menial disciple was not what he seemed to be.
They tried to fend him off but were no match for him.
All of them couldn't even withstand a single strike from him.
It was a one-sided massacre.
The gray brick floor quickly got splattered with blood all over.
Amidst the chaos, Lin Fan leaped far away and hid in a corner.
His focus was on the man appearing from the storage area.
As the man emerged out of the door, a familiar silk robe appeared in Lin Fan's eyes.
The silk robe, once smooth and elegant, had now become dirty and tattered with holes all over.
Master Tan?
How is it possible? He was definitely dead.
Lin Fan looked closely.
The body definitely looked like Master Tan, only with more rot and decay.
But the face was someone unfamiliar to him.
One of the hands, which should have been gone, now sported a much more muscular and bigger one than the other.
When a menial disciple ran past Master Tan, a dark tentacle appeared and went through the menial disciple's chest.
"Die, you monster!" One of the menial disciples picked up a stick and whacked it at Master Tan.
The muscular hand punched through the stick and continued its momentum.
Splat.
The head of the menial disciple burst like a balloon when the punch hit.
Blood, hair, skin, and brain matter splattered all over the floor.
Those standing near and getting hit with the blood and tissues puked immediately.
The next thing they knew was that dark tentacles had gone through them, giving them a swift and quick death.
"Someone go and cry for help!"
Finally, someone had the mind to seek help.
They then saw Lin Fan far away in the corner.
"What are you waiting for? Go and find help!"
Their shouting ironically attracted senior menial disciple Liang's attention.
He smirked and ran towards Lin Fan.
A familiar sound erupted in Lin Fan's mind.
[Ding!]
[Detected soul with malevolent intent incoming!]
[Terminate person with malevolent intent for 30 vengeance points.]
When Lin Fan saw the vengeance points, he changed his mind.
This Liang wasn't someone he couldn't deal with.
When Liang got close enough, he threw a punch at Lin Fan.
Thud!
Lin Fan used his Qi to envelop his arm and blocked the punch.
With the impact, Lin Fan pretended to step a few steps back.
He was trying to gauge his usage of Qi in actual battle.
With his level 3 physique, the punch couldn't do any damage to Lin Fan.
"Not bad. Already at Qi Concentration level. But too bad for you, I'm at Foundation Establishment level."
Liang smirked and looked at Lin Fan, while wiping the blood off his hands onto his brown robes.
"Foundation Establishment level?" Lin Fan said.
"Yes, you heard it right. It's too late for you now," Liang held up his hand like a claw, ready to strike at Lin Fan's throat.
"I think you are mistaken; I meant to say, only Foundation Establishment?" Lin Fan said with a smirk.
"What? You..."
Before Liang could finish his sentence, Lin Fan used his Magnificent Leap and gave him a knee blow.
Foundation Establishment's increased strength and resilience didn't help.
The brute force of Lin Fan's strike mushed Liang's brain and rendered him brain dead.
Lin Fan made sure the blow wasn't at full force and knocked Liang down onto the ground.
He didn't want to expose too much of his abilities.
Without the brain controlling, Liang's body twitched for a few times before stopping and lay on the ground motionless, dead but with his head intact.
A familiar sound then erupted in Lin Fan's mind.
[Ding! Congratulations on terminating malevolent intent.]
[Vengeance points + 30.]
[Current Vengeance Points: 330]
Lin Fan checked the vengeance points and prepared to leave this place.
However, by killing Liang, he'd attracted the attention of Master Tan.
Master Tan with his unfamiliar head turned to Lin Fan.
