He initially thought it would take some effort to find Chen Fan, yet who would have expected the latter to appear right in front of him!
Isn’t this the epitome of ’searching high and low only to find it effortlessly’?
"Chen Fan, will you come with me willingly, or do you want to end up like him? Must I forcefully make you obedient?"
Xiao Hong asked with a smile.
Clearly, he wore an expression of being absolutely confident.
Before coming here, Ling Yu had informed him about Chen Fan’s strength. He was not convinced and had specially looked up information about Chen Fan in the system.
He had to admit, it was quite surprising.
A mere young man had already reached the Meridian Refining Realm, and it only took a few days for him to progress from Transforming Force to Meridian Refining.
Such speed was unheard of, not only for him but in the entire Jiangnan Sub-district Martial Arts Association there wasn’t a second person of this caliber.
But, that was it.
He himself was undeniably a late-stage Meridian Refining Martial Artist, having traversed through the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to declare that in the association, he was undoubtedly the number one below the True Essence Realm!
With such abilities, capturing a newly inducted Meridian Refining Martial Artist should be a breeze.
The thought of taking Chen Fan back and getting an endless supply of top-grade True Qi Pills made Xiao Hong tremble with excitement.
"Oh, where do you intend to take me?" Chen Fan spoke, glancing at Sun Wei whose lips were bluish from the cold, a slight flick of his finger sent a silent thread of True Essence into his body, tightly wrapping the strands of Profound Yin True Qi.
"You’ll know once you come with me."
Xiao Hong, oblivious to it, boasted, "Don’t worry, the place you’re going isn’t some perilous den; it’s much safer than here. Once there, you’ll just need to focus on refining top-grade True Qi Pills, don’t worry, we won’t mistreat you."
Sun Wei, hearing this, widened his eyes in shock.
A top-grade True Qi Pill!
Brother Chen could refine top-grade True Qi Pills?
Last time Elder Xia came, he mentioned that even the headquarters couldn’t refine many top-grade True Qi Pills.
Brother Chen really?
No, how did the person in front know Brother Chen could refine top-grade True Qi Pills? Even he wasn’t aware of this.
Chen Fan also thought about this.
The number of people knowing he could refine top-grade True Qi Pills was three: Chairman Chang, Elder Tang, and Elder Luo.
How did this person know he could refine top-grade True Qi Pills? Moreover, looking at his attire, it was clear he wanted to keep his identity hidden.
Did they inform others at headquarters, who then hatched this cunning plan, or was Chairman Chang and Elder Tang just pretending?
His face gradually grew serious as he asked, "Who told you I could refine top-grade True Qi Pills?"
Xiao Hong was briefly stunned and laughed eerily, "That you needn’t concern yourself with. All you need to do is cooperate obediently."
"What if I don’t cooperate?" Chen Fan questioned.
"Hahaha."
Xiao Hong laughed dismissively, "Do you think you have a say in this matter?"
He shoved Sun Wei forward, "See this guy’s condition? Painful, isn’t it? He was hit by my Profound Yin True Qi. If I wish, I can trigger the cold poison within him anytime, causing unbearable pain until his internal organs turn to blood and death ensues. How about it, want to experience such a sensation?"
"This is your backup plan?"
"You could say so."
Xiao Hong shrugged.
Indeed, this was his backup plan. He had anticipated Chen Fan wouldn’t cooperate willingly.
Hence, infusing some Profound Yin True Qi into his body would make him compliant, willingly becoming an alchemy tool.
"Brother Chen, don’t worry about me, hurry, escape! Leave now!"
Sun Wei urged.
He didn’t know what was happening.
But for this masked man to come alone indicated his great strength, even if not a True Essence Realm Martial Artist, he was at least a late-stage Meridian Refining Martial Artist.
Brother Chen had just entered the Meridian Refining Realm; how could he be an opponent?
"Instead of worrying about others, you better worry about yourself first."
Seeing Sun Wei’s reaction, Xiao Hong’s face took on a sinister look.
With the main target found, keeping Sun would reveal his information, better to kill and set an example.
With this thought, he immediately detonated the cold poison hidden in those strands of true qi.
Within three seconds, Sun Wei would die in agony.
One second passed,
two seconds passed,
three seconds passed,
Sun Wei was still standing fine, eyes wide.
"You?"
Xiao Hong was shocked, "You’re unharmed?"
The same bewildered Sun Wei shook his head.
He really was unharmed?
Not only unharmed, but his senses surged back gradually.
"Impossible!"
Xiao Hong’s face changed.
He clearly detonated the cold poison; even a strong constitution would only endure for several seconds, but no reaction at all was outrageous!
"Wait, could it be...?"
