Chapter 906: Li Fu's Killing Intent

In the chaotic battlefield, Li Fu’s voice rang out, drawing the gaze of many.

“Is that him?”Among the crowd, those who had previously followed Li Fu but had since defected to Zhu Chong were startled to see the return of the young man in plain clothes.

Zhu Chong’s power was immense now, and Li Fu was considered a defeated outcast. Everyone had assumed Li Fu would hide until the end, so his sudden appearance was unexpected. However, people only glanced at him before looking away. After all, circumstances had changed. No matter what Li Fu had been before, he posed no threat to Zhu Chong now. With hundreds of people fighting in the melee, who had time to deal with him?

Li Fu moved through the chaotic battlefield, constantly searching for Zhu Chong. However, Zhu Chong seemed to be cornered elsewhere by several other "quasi-emperors," making him difficult to locate. At the same time, another familiar figure appeared in Li Fu's sight.

Not far away, Han Dong, wielding an ancient longsword, was fiercely attacking a figure holding a broken saber. The figure steadily retreated under Han Dong’s assault, finally being kicked heavily to the ground.

Li Fu recognized the man; he was one of Wu Qiong’s subordinates. Han Dong fighting him suggested that after leaving Li Fu, Han Dong had eventually joined Zhu Chong.

“Cough, cough, cough...” Wu Qiong’s subordinate, sprawled on the ground, coughed violently, appearing utterly exhausted and extremely pale.

The next moment, a sharp sword tip was pressed against his forehead.“No... don’t kill me, I don’t want to die yet...”

Han Dong, holding his longsword, was also breathing heavily. He looked at his defeated opponent. With just a thought, he could pierce the enemy’s skull. A brief flicker of hesitation crossed Han Dong’s eyes. Ultimately, he shifted his sword, the blade grazing the man’s ear before plunging into the ground. After forcefully kicking the man a few times to ensure he was incapacitated, Han Dong prepared to pull out his sword and move elsewhere.

After all, these were still children. Even if they had been brainwashed to fight each other, they were almost incapable of intentional killing, usually stopping once their opponent was defeated.

As Han Dong turned around, he saw the young man in plain clothes in the distance and froze.“Li... Brother Li...?”

Li Fu watched him silently, his gaze incredibly complex.

Li Fu could understand Han Dong’s choice. To survive, Han Dong had decided to betray him, abandoning his conscience and emotions. Since he had gone this far, why not go a step further, set aside his pride, and choose the faction with the greatest chance of survival? What did it matter if Zhu Chong had beaten him or insulted him? Sacrificing one’s pride to survive was not shameful.

But Han Dong had never imagined he would meet Li Fu again here, as one of Zhu Chong’s subordinates.

“Brother Li... what are you doing here?” Han Dong stammered, avoiding Li Fu’s gaze.

“I’m going to kill Zhu Chong,” Li Fu said calmly. “Are you going to stop me?”

Han Dong was speechless. He remained silent for a long time before quietly stepping aside, making way.“Brother Li... just let it go,” Han Dong said hoarsely. “Zhu Chong is too strong. You don’t have a destiny, so you can’t be his match... It’s still not too late to go back.”

Han Dong made way for Li Fu not out of old loyalty or a willingness to help him kill Zhu Chong, but simply because he believed Li Fu couldn’t harm Zhu Chong in the slightest.

Li Fu did not reply, nor did he even look at Han Dong. He walked calmly past him, as if they were two strangers who had never met.

*Thud—!!*At the same moment, a figure with a flag stuck into them awkwardly crashed through a wall and fell heavily into the chaotic battlefield.

“What if a few of you come at me together?!” Zhu Chong’s towering figure, like an overlord, emerged from the swirling dust, roaring. His body was already covered in wounds. “You think you can kill me??”

The "quasi-emperor" with the "Zhao" flag, who had been sent flying, lay on the ground, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood, barely clinging to life.

As the dust cleared, Wu Qiong and several other quasi-emperors were seen surrounding Zhu Chong. Their faces were grim as they saw the gravely injured man. Even their combined efforts hadn't been enough to kill Zhu Chong; instead, he had seized the opportunity to kill one of them.

Zhu Chong’s eyes were bloodshot. He walked step by step to the quasi-emperor named Zhao, and forcefully brought down his heavy halberd!*Thud—!*The dying quasi-emperor’s head burst open with a dull sound.

Seeing this, the faces of the other quasi-emperors changed. “Zhu Chong, you actually dared to kill someone?!”

“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Zhu Chong sneered. “Only one person can become emperor in the end, which means only one of us can survive... If I don’t kill him now, should I wait for you to kill me?”

“You...”Zhu Chong snorted coldly, then, wielding his heavy halberd, charged towards the others again like a ferocious beast!

The quasi-emperors joined forces once more, their auras intertwining like a mighty wall of imperial power, pressing down on Zhu Chong. Their clashing energies sent dust and sand swirling violently across the ground.

“What if you all team up?”“I am destined by Heaven! Who among you can kill me?! Who dares to kill me?!”Zhu Chong fought against multiple opponents, growing stronger with each clash. More and more remnants of emperors' wills began to cast approving gazes upon him. Coupled with the overwhelming number of his subordinates, his arrogance had swelled to an extreme.

Just then,A figure in plain clothes slowly walked to the headless corpse, and a ring on his finger silently embedded itself into it. Flesh was rapidly devoured, and the headless corpse quickly turned into a skeleton. A sliver of killing intent slowly rose in Li Fu’s eyes.

“Zhu Chong!”He shouted.

Zhu Chong, caught in the melee, suddenly turned. His eyes flashed with surprise when he saw who it was. Before he could speak, Li Fu’s palm shot up, and with a casual twist towards the stunned Zhu Chong:“Twist.”

*Rip—!*The space around Zhu Chong suddenly tore apart. An invisible vortex enveloped half of his body, brutally ripping off his flesh as crimson blood gushed out, all under his bewildered gaze! This single twist directly shattered one of Zhu Chong’s arms and a leg, as well as half of his torso. He lost his balance and crashed to the ground, his heart-wrenching screams instantly echoing through the sky!

Everything happened so suddenly that everyone stared wide-eyed in horror, not understanding what had just occurred. In the dead silence, only the figure in plain clothes walked calmly forward...

“Li Fu??”Wu Qiong and the others looked at him, their faces filled with disbelief. “It’s you... Did you get a destiny? No, that’s not right... What exactly are you...?”

“Brother Li...” Han Dong stared blankly at the back of the plain-clothed figure who had casually torn off half of Zhu Chong’s body, standing as still as a statue.
