Chapter 264 - 259: All Slaughtered
"What you say makes sense, let’s join forces to kill this scum." At this moment, the Condensed Core Realm cultivator who previously fought with Wei Zhou looked at Li Fan and spoke. He was a Qi Cultivator from the Prefecture.
As he spoke, he stepped forward, approaching Li Fan’s side.
Li Fan turned his gaze, glanced at him, and said, "Get lost..."
The Condensed Core Realm cultivator was taken aback and looked at Li Fan, saying, "You."
Li Fan looked towards Wei Zhou and said, "You deserve to die, but they are no good either. Your matters can be resolved first; I won’t interfere. The life of this Jiao Demon, I’ll take it first."
"How dare you," the Condensed Core Realm cultivator glared angrily at Li Fan, only to hear Li Fan say, "If you don’t shut up, I’ll join forces with him to kill you first."
The Condensed Core Realm cultivator’s expression stiffened, extremely embarrassed, but he soon realized the reason.
It must have been because Chi Yu attempted to collude with Demons earlier, offering the woman beside him to the Jiao Demon, leading to the current situation.
He wasn’t wrong. Li Fan already had no goodwill towards the court, instinctively feeling some aversion since the previous Governor of Chu State Xu Bin. Moreover, it wasn’t unexpected that Wei Zhou was previously framed by the Prefecture, which led to his family’s extermination and his revenge.
Of course, the main reason was Chi Yu. Chi Yu was in-laws with the Prefecture and very close with Wenren Qiu. They were already in cahoots, and in times of crisis, the first thing that came to mind was to collude with Demons and betray humans, and none from the Prefecture said anything to stop it.
Not stopping was tacit approval. They must have harbored a mindset of taking chances, letting Chi Yu be the bad guy. If successful, they might escape a catastrophe.
