Unrivaled Soldier in the City

Upon witnessing this scene, Lin Kuang’s expression changed drastically. The Demon Sect! Is Fang Guangwang actually a member of the Demon Sect? Could it be that the Fan Family is also under their control? Is Fan Wudao one of them, too?

A headache began to throb in Lin Kuang’s temples. If that’s true, then the Fan Family is an immense threat. Especially with Fan Bingbing still there... How can I not be worried?

"You scum, are you a member of the Demon Sect?!" Lin Kuang snarled, glaring at Fang Guangwang.

The members of the Demon Sect were cruel and wicked. They practiced Demon Techniques, sacrificing the lives of innocents without hesitation. They all deserved to die! This was precisely why the Orthodox Sects of the Ancient Martial Realm were determined to exterminate the Demon Sect.

"Haha, that’s right. I am a member of the Demon Sect!" Fang Guangwang sneered, his eyes glinting with a chilling murderous intent. "I didn’t want to expose myself, but you have thoroughly enraged me. I will reveal my identity if it means I can kill you! Lin Kuang, you’re doomed today. No one can save you. You will die, without a doubt!"

Now that his identity was revealed, Fang Guangwang was fearless. He had to kill Lin Kuang. Otherwise, the entire Fan Family would be threatened. Of course, in his view, revealing his identity had only served to increase his strength further. Lin Kuang’s death was a certainty, so he wasn’t worried about being exposed.

Seeing the demonized Fang Guangwang, a crazed killing intent also filled Lin Kuang’s eyes. However, he knew it would be incredibly difficult, if not impossible, to kill Fang Guangwang in this state.

I’ll see how this plays out first. If it doesn’t work, I’ll have to leave, Lin Kuang thought. I never expected the Fan Family to be in league with the Demon Sect. This is a major incident, and word of it must get out. That means I can’t die here.

Although Lin Kuang felt he might not be a match for the demonized Fang Guangwang, he was confident that if he chose to escape, Fang Guangwang wouldn’t be able to catch him. For that reason, Lin Kuang remained fearless.

"Hmph. So you demonized yourself, turning into something neither human nor ghost. Do you really think that’s enough to kill me?" Lin Kuang scoffed.

"Tsk, tsk. Lin Kuang, don’t be so arrogant. I’m even stronger now than I was in my Peak State. Killing you will be as easy as turning over my hand!" Fang Guangwang sneered.

"Is that so? I doubt it," Lin Kuang said scornfully. "What’s truly unexpected is that your Fan Family is part of the Demon Sect. You remnants have hidden yourselves quite well!"

"Haha, how could members of our Demon Sect die so easily? Humph! You ignorant fool, the power of our Demon Sect is beyond your imagination! Our Sect Hierarch is the most terrifying figure in all of heaven and earth.

"Kid, I can see your strength is quite remarkable. It’s not easy to achieve such power at your age. If you’re willing to join our Demon Sect, I guarantee you’ll receive countless benefits.

"When that time comes, our Family Head, Fan Wudao, will not prevent you from being with Fan Bingbing. You two could be together openly.

"So, kid, care to consider it?" Fang Guangwang offered.

After demonizing, even Fang Guangwang’s way of thinking had changed. Lin Kuang’s strength genuinely impressed him. If he could recruit Lin Kuang into the Demon Sect, it would be a great boon to the Sect Hierarch’s plans. That was why he was attempting to lure him in with temptations.

Lin Kuang’s expression remained impassive as he listened, but inwardly he was deeply shaken. It wasn’t difficult to discern the truth from Fang Guangwang’s words. The Fan Family’s Head, Fan Wudao, is also a member of the Demon Sect! Why else would he say Fan Wudao wouldn’t stop me from being with Fan Bingbing? It’s obvious. Fan Wudao has to be one of them.

So it’s true. The Fan Family Head, Fan Wudao, is also in the Demon Sect. It seems the entire family, from top to bottom, has been corrupted. I must make a trip to the Fan Family. If this continues, the threat from the Demon Sect will become too great, and Bingbing will be in extreme danger, Lin Kuang thought rapidly.

"Boy, have you made up your mind? Want to join us? The Demon Sect has vast resources. As long as you join, I’m certain the Sect Hierarch will personally nurture you. Your strength will advance by leaps and bounds!" Fang Guangwang tempted him again.

Fang Guangwang was in no hurry. If Lin Kuang agreed, all the better. If not, he could easily kill him anyway.

"Forget it. I would never join your inhuman shadow organization," Lin Kuang stated flatly. "I have no desire to end up like you, as something neither human nor ghost." How could I ever join such a group? It’s absolutely impossible.

"You’re really not going to reconsider?" Fang Guangwang asked again.

"There’s absolutely no need. Even if you could talk the heavens down, I still wouldn’t join," Lin Kuang replied.

"So be it. It seems you’re seeking death. Very well, I’ll grant you your wish!" Fang Guangwang laughed coldly.

Since Lin Kuang refused to join, there was no point in wasting any more words. The only thing left to do was kill him.

With that, Fang Guangwang attacked. His speed was incredible, and he appeared before Lin Kuang in an instant.

Lin Kuang’s expression tightened. He pushed his Extreme Shadow Illusion to its limit, his figure blurring as he retreated explosively to dodge the attack.

Fang Guangwang paused for a moment. He’s that fast? This kid is truly formidable, he thought, before lunging at Lin Kuang once more.

Lin Kuang dodged left and right, but he eventually ran out of room to evade and had no choice but to face the attack head-on.

Lin Kuang unleashed his Bagua Step Technique and the Chaotic Tai Chi Sword. These were, after all, the strongest techniques at his disposal. Against a powerful opponent like Fang Guangwang, this was his only option. He would use the Chaotic Tai Chi Sword to stall for time and look for a chance to escape. If this fight dragged on, he stood no chance of winning.

Fang Guangwang, for his part, was incredibly frustrated. His strength was clearly a level above Lin Kuang’s, yet he couldn’t seem to land a single blow against the youth’s Chaotic Tai Chi Sword. The vexation was enough to make him want to vomit blood.

Damn it! How does this kid know the Tai Chi Sword? He’s a real pain to deal with! Fang Guangwang fumed inwardly as his attacks grew faster, fiercer, and more ferocious.

Lin Kuang appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly he was in turmoil. If this kept up, his defeat was only a matter of time. Defeat meant death, and frankly, Lin Kuang had no desire to die just yet.

As the fight raged on, Lin Kuang’s mind raced, searching for a way out. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He had an idea!

In the next instant, while continuing to fend off the attacks, Lin Kuang’s body began to rotate almost imperceptibly.
