164 Chapter 164

But of course Lin Fan had already expected this and was prepared to block the old man's attack.

He had already brought out the Iron Eater Bone Artifact and was already swinging up when the old man had disappeared, but this time he didn't turn it into the same zweihander.

It was clear that this old couple specialized in wind laws and the main characteristic of the wind law was its speed.

Lin Fan had instead shifted the Iron Eater Bone Artifact into a little dagger that he brought up to block and knock away the sword of the old man.

The old man had a look of surprise when he saw this little dagger easily block his sword, but he didn't pause for even a second as he used the momentum of the dagger's upward swing to turn in the air. Using that spin to generate force, the old man's sword came slashing up, aiming to cut Lin Fan's face from the chin to his forehead.

Of course, Lin Fan wouldn't just let himself be cut that easily, as he brought the dagger that had come up with the swing down again to block the old man's sword.

But when the dagger came down, it changed forms into a heavier sword that utilized the gravity gained from the falling of this heavier weapon to generate a stronger slash.

The swords clashed and the old man was sent flying through the air, flying back towards the old woman.

The old man skillfully spun in the air and neutralized most of the force that came from Lin Fan's swing before landing on the ground near the old woman.

However, when he did land, his hand suddenly came to his mouth and he gave a cough, spitting out blood onto his palm.

During that clash, even though he had used his law of wind, Lin Fan had somehow overpowered him and he had suffered internal injuries from that clash.

After wiping off the blood from the corner of his lips, the old man looked at Lin Fan and once again his eyes filled with surprise when he looked at Lin Fan's sword. That was because Lin Fan's sword was currently covered in the power of three different laws.

Without anyone noticing, during the time that Lin Fan's dagger changed into a sword and fell down, it had suddenly been covered in three different coloured glows of gold, blue, and white, symbolizing the laws of force, water, and lightning.

The old man said in a surprised voice, "You can actually wield the power of three different laws?"

The old woman finally stopped her hysterical screaming and looked at Lin Fan with a cautious gaze in her eyes. She finally had no choice but to stop herself from losing her mind and actually paying attention to Lin Fan.

The old woman cautiously said, "Just who are you?"

This was a young man who was in the Platinum Realm and could use three different laws, it was clear that he wasn't just a normal person.

Then there was the fact that the captain working for the Zhu Family was this respectful to him, it was clear that he came from a power that the Zhu Family treated equally.

At that moment, the old woman started feeling a bit of regret about taking Song Shu. If she hadn't taken her, she wouldn't have provoked this young man with his mysterious and powerful backing.

But it was too late to feel regret now, there was only one path for them to take.

Lin Fan ignored this question and said to them, "It isn't too late to give up now, I can promise you that you won't suffer much if you surrender."

The old couple looked at each other before giving soft laughs.

The old man said, "Do you really think we would believe you? We've offended the Zhu Family by trying to steal children on the airship they run, this is equal to slapping the face of the Zhu Family. Do you really think that they would let us off?"

The old woman added, "Moreover, there's a little monster like you, which means that the Zhu Family should be paying more attention to this matter than normal. This matter will almost definitely reach the head of the Zhu Family and at that time, there would only be death for us."

It was clear to Lin Fan that these two didn't mean any harm, they were just driven to craziness in their grief which was understandable. If possible, he genuinely wanted to help them, which was once again the strange impulse that came from deep down inside him. So he continued trying to convince them, "I'll give you my word that I'll do my best to help…"

But he didn't get a chance to finish as the old man said, "Enough, we all know how this will end, so at least let us go out with dignity."

The old woman moved over to the old man and stood back to back with him, clasping their hands together and putting away their swords.

The old man said, "This is our final move, if you can take it, it will be your victory."

Lin Fan wanted to say something, but he didn't have a chance as the old couple suddenly jumped up and started turning. As they turned in the air, they gathered more and more wind energy around them, creating a giant cyclone with razor sharp wind blades.

Once they finished gathering their wind, they suddenly changed directions and pointed themselves at Lin Fan, beginning to accelerate once they finished aiming.

Lin Fan could tell that this attack wasn't simple, in terms of how powerful the life energy contained in this attack was, it had already reached the peak Platinum Realm.

But that didn't mean Lin Fan couldn't deal with it.

He released all three laws again and this time the Iron Eater Bone Artifact was transformed into a claymore as he gathered all his life energy around it, in the form of three different laws.

He swung down with the claymore and the claymore clashed with the cyclone of wind blades. At first it seemed like Lin Fan was about to be pushed back, but he somehow held on. The most important part of this entire clash was that during the clash, there were slivers of green wind energy that were absorbed by Lin Fan's sword and were absorbed into his body.

Eventually, the cyclone was weakened enough that it couldn't clash with Lin Fan's sword any longer and it was dispersed. Lin Fan's sword continued forth and created a large gash in the chest of the old man who had moved in front of the old woman to protect her before sending them flying away.

The old man and old woman crashed into the wall before falling to the ground.

The old woman was able to get back up since she only suffered minor internal injuries, but the old man was just lying there with the large gash across his chest.

The old woman came over to him and held him in her arms, looking down into his eyes with sadness.

After sharing one last final look, she said, "Together?"

The old man nodded and said, "Together."

They knew that they had been beaten, so the only thing they could do was go out on their own terms.

But before they did, the old man turned to Lin Fan and said, "I can tell that you are the same as us, you think you're strong and can beat anything, but I can tell you now that that attitude will earn you plenty of enemies. There will be a day when that comes back to hurt you, namely the one you love the most. I hope you'll be able to get past it better than we did."

Once he finished saying this, he gripped his wife's hand and there was a sudden increase in life energy around them.

Everyone's faces fell when they saw this.

This kind of life energy increase could only mean a single thing, it meant that they were about to kill themselves and blow up their cultivation!

The captain and his men began running away, but Lin Fan just calmly summoned out his three pets.

The old man and old woman were surprised to see these pets since these pets were all in the high Platinum Realm just like them.

The three pets released their laws and trapped the old man and old woman. At the same time, Lin Fan transformed his Iron Eater Bone Artifact into two daggers which he threw out at the trapped old couple, piercing them right in the heart.

The old couple died sharing one last look and holding each other.

Lin Fan revealed a sad look before walking over to use his suction power to absorb the remaining bit of wind law that was left in the corpses since no one else was around.

As he sucked it in, the green energy inside his dantian began taking a more physical form, becoming close to what a giant tornado would look like.

Then after that, he gave the couple a moment of silence before walking out.

…

Far away from the airship, inside a giant black tower.

There was a person who suddenly came inside a gathering hall where several cloaked figures were sitting around a long table.

That person immediately kneeled down to these people and said, "Reporting in, the soul jades of the Wind Demons have been shattered!"

The people at the table were all shocked when they heard this.

The cloaked figure sitting at the head of the table slammed his fist down before saying in a dark voice, "Find out who did it."
