Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1107 - Retaliate

News of Chen Fan defying the heavens and killing Nie Han spread widely. Everywhere, people were talking.

No one knew exactly what method Chen Fan had used, or what fortuitous encounter had given him such terrifying combat strength, but one thing was clear: people had begun to view Chen Fan, a non-Legendary realm expert, as a Legend.

Naturally, the more powerful Chen Fan became, the more uneasy the three overlord-class forces felt. Their hatred for him had reached an extreme.

In response, they doubled the bounty on his head, raising the reward to ten times its original amount.

The entire ancient battlefield boiled over.

Some even suggested it was better to risk ambushing Chen Fan than waste time searching for treasures.

At the same time, countless voices questioned the overlord forces. Were they determined to kill Chen Fan?

Was that even necessary?

Although Chen Fan had killed their prodigies, constantly raising the bounty risked provoking the True Martial Academy’s wrath.

However, many people with discerning eyes could see through the three overlord-class forces’ intention for doing so.

Chen Fan was too monstrous.

If such a monstrous person didn’t belong to them, they had to somehow kill them in their cradle, before he matured and became a threat.

It was the same ancient truth: when a tree rose above the forest, the wind would surely break it.

As for the deaths of Bai Yang, Fu Buping, and the others, it was nothing more than an excuse.

After all, their prodigies had been trying to capture and kill Chen Fan. He increased his strength and killed them in turn. That was perfectly justified. There was nothing they could say about it.

......

In Little True Martial City, at the settlement of Peerless Peak’s disciples, a rare gathering was taking place.

For the first time in years, all eight of them had come together.

“Hoho, the three overlord-class forces are really not giving up until they put Little Junior Brother to death,” Di Chen said with a cold smile.

Over the past few years, Huang Wuji, Di Chen, and the others wandered around the ancient battlefield, hunting for opportunities and treasures, and each had reaped great rewards.

They have all improved by leaps and bounds. Di Chen successfully stepped into the Lesser Legendary realm a year ago and was extremely powerful. Meanwhile, Huang Wuji had also progressed a step further, advancing into the Greater Legendary realm.

Duanmu Lingxing had also broken through to the Greater Peak Manifestation realm and had mastered about sixty to seventy threads of law. Her combat strength reached the quasi-Legendary level.

As for Yan Weiyi, Zhuge Mingyue, Zhu Yue, and Jian Qi, they had also made great progress.

All of them were monsters among monsters—geniuses so rare that they caught the eye of Zhang Daoling and earned a place on Peerless Peak.

Blessed by fortune, tempered by the ancient battlefield, they had seized countless opportunities and treasures.

Of course, Chen Fan, the little junior brother, had surpassed his predecessors. His strength was now second only to Huang Wuji and Di Chen. He had already surpassed Duanmu Lingxing.

Yan Weiyi walked the path of slaughter. His killing intent was very heavy, looking to kill people at the drop of a hat.

“Since they’re so eager to provoke us, why don’t we kill a few of their so-called geniuses. Let them see we’re not to be trifled with.”

In his opinion, since the three overlord class forces were giving Chen Fan a hard time, it only made sense that they return the favor.

“I second this suggestion. Let’s kill a few of them. Maybe even a few of their Legendary realm experts. Let’s show them pain. Let’s see if they still dare to provoke our Peerless Peak,” Zhu Yue said in agreement.

Huang Wuji, Di Chen, and the others also favored the suggestion very much.

None of them were the type to let others walk all over them. A strong counterattack was needed to turn the tide; otherwise, Chen Fan would never find peace.

As for the wrath of the three overlord class forces, they simply didn’t care.

They could place a bounty on Chen Fan, but they were not allowed to strike back?

Huang Wuji looked at Chen Fan and asked, “What do you think, Little Junior Brother?”

He was the one most affected, so the final say should be his.

Chen Fan thought for a moment, smiled, and said, “I appreciate your kindness, Senior Brothers and Sisters, but I don’t agree with killing their people—”

Yan Weiyi interrupted him and said in displeasure, “Little Junior Brother, are you worried that we’ll anger their higher-ups by doing so? No need for that. If they dare to issue a kill order on you, we have every right to retaliate.”

Chen Fan shook his head and said with a smile, “Fourth Senior Brother, you have a point, but we can’t keep the cycle of revenge going like this. We shouldn’t also keep troubling our teacher over petty matters either. I’m not saying we should let them off easily. I, Chen Fan, am no pushover.”

“Oh? Little Junior Brother, what do you mean by that? Do you have a better way?”

Chen Fan grinned, “We don’t need to kill at all. Wouldn’t it be better if we simply... rob the disciples of the three overlord-class forces? That way, we vent our anger—and even if they're furious, they’ll have no excuse to strike back.”

“Haha, good, Little Junior Brother is really smart. That way, we’ll only be robbing them and not killing them. Even if they want to lash out, they’ll have to swallow their rage. We’ll suffocate them to death. It’s indeed much better than killing their people. It’s decided, that’s what we’ll do!” Huang Wuji laughed out loud and applauded.

With their plan decided, Chen Fan, Huang Wuji, and the others began to move.

Not long after, explosive news swept through the ancient battlefield. Many of the disciples from the Sun Moon Divine Sect, Fire Reverence Cult, and Blade Saint Mountain suffered retaliation from the Peerless Peak. Their treasures were seized, their resources stripped clean—even their clothes were taken.

As soon as this news came out, the entire ancient battlefield blew up.

The three overlord-class forces were furious and voiced their dissatisfaction to the True Martial Academy.

However, the academy stood their ground strongly, responding that if they could issue an order to hunt their disciple, they could also retaliate. Not killing their people was already the academy showing them a great deal of face.

After receiving the True Martial Academy’s response, the three overlord-class forces flew into a rage, but there was nothing they could do, as they had no leg to stand on.

They were all overlord-class forces; they weren’t afraid of one another. If they could dish it out, they had better be ready to take it too.

Left without a choice, the three overlord class forces could only continue raising the bounty.

However, this time, the Peerless Peak was moving as one. With Huang Wuji around, unless an Invincible Legendary realm stepped in, even Greater Legendary realms couldn’t do a thing to them.

This only further fueled Chen Fan and the others' rage. They unleashed wave after wave of brutal retaliation, driving the three overlord-class forces' people into a state of constant fear.

Later, it wasn’t only the Peerless Peak but the whole of the True Martial Academy that joined in. Many disciples realized that robbing the three overlord-class forces was not only permitted, but it was also a golden opportunity to get rich overnight, and they even had official justification for it! freewebnσvel.cøm

The people from the three overlord class forces became fearful of even stepping outside their cities, nervously glancing over their shoulders, terrified of being ambushed.

The disciples of the three overlord-class forces flooded their higher-ups with complaints, desperately pleading to have the bounty on Chen Fan withdrawn.

Finally, forced into a corner, the three overlord class forces had no choice but to rescind their bounty on Chen Fan.
