The sudden shout successfully drew everyone's attention.
Everyone subconsciously looked up, only to find that a flying boat had appeared in the sky at some point.
In fact, they couldn't be blamed for being too careless.
This flying boat had been modified by Ye Fan, so stealth was naturally indispensable.
The most important thing was that neither Ye Fan nor Kurota had any true qi fluctuations, and these people couldn't possibly stare at the sky all the time.
As for Kurota barely being considered a cultivator now...
Its true qi fluctuations were probably not as strong as another cultivator's fart...
Soon, the flying boat landed on the ground.
"Ye Fan...?"
Seeing the familiar figure, Liang Rujing could hardly believe she was dreaming!
Her mouth was so wide it could fit an egg, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
"Is it really... you..."
Soon, Ye Fan descended to the ground.
Seeing that Ye Fan had no cultivation on him, Zhao Xiao's face immediately turned cold.
"The Huoyun Sect is conducting business, get lost, irrelevant people!"
Ye Fan ignored him, instead turning to Liang Rujing and saying, "Take your people onto the flying boat first."
"Mmm." Liang Rujing knew it wasn't the time for pleasantries, so she said no more.
The other female cultivators nodded at Ye Fan, supporting each other as they walked towards the flying boat.
"When did I say you could leave?" Seeing that he was being ignored, Zhao Xiao's face immediately darkened. "You're courting death!"
Then he raised his hand and shot a stream of true qi towards Ye Fan.
"Whoosh!"
At such close range, the true qi attack arrived instantly!
Ye Fan seemed to completely ignore Zhao Xiao's attack, making no defensive preparations at all.
In fact, he couldn't react in time.
However...
It wasn't a big problem.
Zhao Xiao's attack, when it was still about three inches away from Ye Fan, the daoist robe on Ye Fan's body suddenly emitted a faint white light.
Then, that true qi attack suddenly disappeared!
Without causing even the slightest ripple!
The cultivator beside Zhao Xiao immediately narrowed his eyes.
It's a protective magical artifact!
No wonder this kid dared to come out and cause trouble without any cultivation, it turns out he had something to rely on.
It made sense.
Judging by the specifications of the flying boat alone, it was likely someone who wasn't short on money.
It wasn't strange for him to have one or two protective magical artifacts.
However...
It was only limited to that!
A person who hasn't entered the sect, their magical artifacts are bound to not be very powerful!
Because any powerful magical artifact requires true qi to activate.
Being able to block the attack of a Golden Core stage cultivator like Zhao Xiao was probably its limit!
"Protective magical artifact?" Zhao Xiao also saw through it, and a trace of greed flashed in his eyes. "Kid, don't you know not to flaunt your wealth!"
The disciples he brought with him were mostly his lackeys, and they were very familiar with Zhao Xiao's way of doing things.
Zhao Xiao's words clearly indicated his intention to kill and seize the treasure, so they naturally knew what to do.
Everyone operated their true qi and launched attacks at Ye Fan!
"Rumble—!"
An explosion sounded, stirring up a large cloud of dust.
"Looks like it's my lucky day," Zhao Xiao said, clapping his hands with satisfaction, preparing to go and collect his spoils.
"Young Master, wait a moment." The cultivator beside him suddenly stopped him, frowning. "Something's not right..."
After speaking, the cultivator unleashed a wind-attribute spell.
When the dust settled, Zhao Xiao was completely stunned!
Ye Fan was still standing there perfectly fine, not looking injured at all?!
Taking advantage of the other party's stunned moment, Ye Fan took out his sniper rifle.
The reason he dared to come down like this just now was because he knew he wouldn't be in danger.
The daoist robe on his body was his greatest shield!
The runes carved on it were enough to defend against the attacks of peak Hua Shen stage cultivators!
If it weren't for the limited materials he had, the defense would have been even stronger.
But it was enough to deal with these guys!
Although he had no cultivation now, he could still discern their realms by guiding the spiritual energy.
The highest cultivation among them was the Nascent Soul stage fellow beside Zhao Xiao.
Even if he stood there and let the other party attack, they would probably be exhausted to death without being able to hurt him one bit.
"You don't need to worry about this kind of thing," Ye Fan replied with a smile, and casually opened the cover of the sniper rifle.
This time, he didn't use the prepared three bullets, but took out a demon core from a Nascent Soul stage demonic beast and loaded it into the sniper rifle.
This demon core was collected when he bought demonic beast meat before. Because he didn't have many demon cores, he hadn't had time to convert them yet.
But it was perfect.
It was too wasteful to use those high-level bullets against a Nascent Soul stage fellow.
After finishing, Ye Fan raised the sniper rifle and aimed it at the cultivator beside Zhao Xiao.
Being pointed at by the black muzzle of the sniper rifle, the cultivator felt an inexplicable jolt in his heart.
This was an intuition he had developed from being on the brink of death many times.
Once this situation occurred, it meant he was in danger!
Although he didn't know why a person without cultivation would give him such a sense of danger, he knew that if he didn't do something, he would really be in trouble!
The cultivator immediately launched an attack at Ye Fan, then grabbed Zhao Xiao and dodged to the side!
As soon as he made his move, he heard a faint and rapid whistling sound in his ears!
"Bang!"
The next moment, the cultivator's entire right arm, along with his shoulder, exploded!
The intense pain contorted his expression!
But he couldn't bother with that now, gritting his teeth, he took Zhao Xiao and flew away!
If he hadn't dodged a little earlier, he might have been blown to pieces!
He couldn't understand why that strange weapon had such terrifying destructive power, even the Nascent Soul stage cultivator like himself couldn't resist it!
He only knew that if he didn't run, he would truly be finished!
The remaining cultivators were clearly stunned by this scene!
To them, the powerful Nascent Soul cultivator was just defeated like that?
And by a useless person with no cultivation?
But when they saw Ye Fan aim the gun at them, they couldn't remain stunned any longer and fled for their lives!
If they took one of those shots, they would be finished!
...
After everyone had fled, Ye Fan finally put away the sniper rifle.
In fact, he never expected to capture all of them from the beginning.
After all, he had limited ammunition.
It was truly a waste to use those higher-level bullets on these guys.
After putting away the sniper rifle, Ye Fan walked back towards the flying boat.
Liang Rujing and her fellow disciples hadn't boarded the flying boat yet, and they were all staring dumbfounded...
What had just happened was beyond their comprehension...
Such a powerful weapon, yet it produced no true qi fluctuations when attacking, it was simply incomprehensible!
"Don't just stand there," Ye Fan said to Liang Rujing, who was still in a daze. "Let's leave here first."
"Mmm..."
The flying boat slowly ascended.
After signaling the female cultivators to find rooms to rest, Ye Fan led Liang Rujing to his room.
However, before he could close the door after entering, Ye Fan's expression changed!
That familiar feeling was back...
Ye Fan stiffened and fell to the side.
"Ye Fan, what's wrong?" Liang Rujing was startled and quickly supported him. "Your body..."
