Chapter 1361 1359: So Many Flaws, I Don't Even Want to Make a Move...
The air seemed to have ignited!
The temperature suddenly soared!
Lin Fan raised an eyebrow, feeling as if he were in a furnace, feeling quite uncomfortable.
However.
He didn't take Zhu Ruoling seriously, because this little girl was too confident in herself. With merely half-step Lower Heavenly Venerate strength, she dared to imagine she could crush him—it was simply a dream.
Moreover.
This little girl was impulsive and hot-headed, not considering consequences, thinking she could do as she pleased because she was the Clan Leader's daughter. Judging by her demeanor, she didn't even consider the High Priest; she wasn't as sensible as Zhu Qilue and still lived in an ivory tower.
If he didn't make her realize this, she would only suffer more hardships in the future.
Normally, Lin Fan wouldn't spare a single glance at such foolish and arrogant women.
Yet, as he was new to the Five Elements Realm, it was best not to stir up trouble. And since she was Zhu Qilue's sister, it was even less appropriate to strike lethally.
In his heart, Lin Fan coldly laughed. In less than a breath, he saw numerous flaws revealed all over Zhu Ruoling!
A curve lifted at the corner of his mouth as he coldly smiled, showing no intention to defend, instead focusing intently and observing Zhu Ruoling.
Zhu Ruoling mistakenly thought Lin Fan was ogling her with lecherous intentions, thus became even more enraged.
"Pervert! You're still looking! I'll gouge out your eyes!"
Boom!
Zhu Ruoling struck with deadly intent!
She was wrapped in a layer of red light, and with a loud bang, a flame-forged long spear appeared in her hand, thrusting fiercely at Lin Fan's eyes!
Everyone present gasped in shock!
It was the first time they had seen Zhu Ruoling so fiercely angry, actually using the Leaving Fire Spear Skill on someone!
It was Zhu Ruoling's signature skill, rarely used, and now she wielded it against an insignificant person, showing her immense fury!
It was entirely with Lin Fan's life in mind!
"Die, scoundrel!"
In a flash.
All eyes turned to Lin Fan, their breaths halted.
Because Lin Fan stood as still as a painting, hands clasped behind his back, unmoving, continuing to coldly watch Zhu Ruoling, showing no intention of fleeing or defending!
Cold as ice.
Expressionless.
Utterly still!
"Is this guy seeking death?!"
"If he doesn't move soon, he'll surely die within the next breath!"
"He's underestimating the Leaving Fire Spear Skill too much; he's bound to suffer."
"An ant is just an ant, probably frozen with fear already."
"This man, he's dead!"
Everyone gave their verdict and judgment, although Lin Fan's previous defiance against the High Priest Gong Wenya's pressure had indeed surprised them.
But now, in the face of the Leaving Fire Spear Skill, his motionless stance was a clear path to death.
One breath later!
No escape, only a road to death.
A pity for such an ant, not slain by the High Priest, yet blinded by Zhu Ruoling.
This was probably the fate of an ant.
To die by the High Priest's hand—ha, this ant wasn't worthy!
In everyone's eyes, Lin Fan was already dead, losing interest in the scene before them. Though they thought Lin Fan would surprise them again, his failure brought disappointment.
Just when they were smirking, waiting to see Lin Fan's tragic end.
Suddenly!
A thunderous voice boomed in Changwen Hall, like a bolt from the blue, shaking everyone's hearts.
Everyone was stunned, glancing around for the source of the voice.
Far from the sky, close at hand.
A fascinating feeling, as if the sound from the heavens broke right beside their ears.
The next moment, someone surprisingly pointed towards Lin Fan's direction, screaming in terror.
"It's... it's this guy making the noise! It's him!"
Everyone gasped, unable to believe such a powerful Spiritual Power came from an insignificant wastrel, simply stunning!
Changwen Hall immediately fell silent!
Everyone held their breath, listening quietly to Lin Fan's faint voice, to hear exactly what he said.
"Left side, could pierce the heart."
"Right side, could sever the waist."
"Front, could storm straight through."
"Lower stance, tottering, not worth a single blow."
...
"Alas, too many flaws, I don't even want to strike..."
The voice echoed in Changwen Hall, astounding everyone to silence, rendering them speechless.
"This is... this..." Zhu Sui, upon hearing these words, was drenched in cold sweat!
No one knows a daughter better than her father!
He, as Zhu Ruoling's father, naturally knew Zhu Ruoling's level, and every word Lin Fan spoke exposed Zhu Ruoling's flaws!
Zhu Ruoling barely proficiently used the Leaving Fire Spear Skill, merely attempting it now, but everyone praised her for her father's sake, leading Zhu Ruoling to believe she had mastered it flawlessly, impetuously using it to try to kill Lin Fan.
However.
Lin Fan hadn't moved, yet immediately saw through all of Zhu Ruoling's flaws, pointing them out one by one.
These vulnerabilities were precisely the ones Zhu Sui often advised Zhu Ruoling to watch for.
One strike on any point would instantly spell Zhu Ruoling's doom!
Thump thump!
Thump thump!
Zhu Sui felt his heart leap to his throat, tense and motionless.
It was too late to intervene.
Zhu Ruoling had already reached Lin Fan; should he strike at any flaw he had just identified, Zhu Sui would lose his daughter!
Zhu Ruoling's heart also suddenly panicked!
In the midst of a duel, panic is a grave taboo, easily leading to distorted moves, exposing even greater flaws!
But Zhu Ruoling couldn't help the panic, because Lin Fan's words mirrored Zhu Sui's daily warnings exactly!
Not a word off!
Like Lin Fan eavesdropped on their conversations and memorized them word for word.
This inner-sourced fear rendered her mind blank!
She forgot all intended moves, her steps faltering, her body wobbling, completely losing her rhythm.
The Fire Gun in her hand deviated from its intended path, unexpectedly aiming towards the ground.
Lin Fan remained absolutely still, expressionlessly watching Zhu Ruoling charge forth.
"Ling'er!"
Zhu Sui shouted because he realized Zhu Ruoling had completely lost her balance. This was extremely risky! The Leaving Fire Spear Skill might even hurt Zhu Ruoling herself!
As soon as he finished speaking.
With a deafening roar!
The entire Changwen Hall quaked violently!
Zhu Ruoling's Leaving Fire Spear Skill didn't hit Lin Fan but struck the ground before her, erupting in a colossal explosion.
Sparks sprayed everywhere!
Flames blazed ferociously!
The scene was terrifyingly horrifying, like several tons of explosives detonating, causing massive havoc that propelled some onlookers into the air!
Lan Zhengqing seemed to have already anticipated this occurrence, his figure flashing out instantly, attempting to rescue Zhu Ruoling before the blast!
Zhu Sui, seeing Lan Zhengqing rush out, exhaled a sigh of relief, trusting this talented youngster would surely save Zhu Ruoling.
Black smoke enveloped Changwen Hall, making visibility difficult.
After a while.
When the smoke cleared, everyone surprisingly found, next to Lan Zhengqing, there was no one!
And the one who rescued Zhu Ruoling from the explosion was Lin Fan!
His robust physique shielded Zhu Ruoling in front, while he himself was covered in wounds, bloodied.
Yet Zhu Ruoling was unharmed, albeit evidently shocked, probably not anticipating that the Leaving Fire Spear Skill nearly cost her life, now trembling in Lin Fan's arms.
"Miss Zhu, you're pinching my skin... It hurts... hurts..."
Lin Fan grimaced and said with a grin.
