Chapter 153: This Cauldron Is Mine
“Water God’s Protection of the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River!”
He Tu’s shout summoned the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River above him, consuming most of his earth energy. It spun over his head as a curtain of water enveloped him inside.
Boom!
The monster’s punch landed on the water curtain, shaking it up. Afterward, Lin Fan’s oncoming mace smashed through it.
Puff!
He Tu suffered a heavy blow. His energy suddenly grew unstable. He spurted a mouthful of blood as he was sent flying into the distance. But even in this situation, he didn’t forget his treasure.
“Cauldron, come here.”
“Don’t even think about it.”
Lin Fan grabbed ahold of the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River with his huge black hands straight away. However, he could still feel the cauldron constantly struggling as if it would fly to the other side at any moment. But Lin Fan didn’t utter a single word, he put his arms around it and hugged it at once.
Hu Tu blew his top at the sight of this. He desperately urged the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River to return, but to his shock and dismay, he discovered that a huge force was pulling the cauldron.
“This is mine.” Lin Fan’s face grew purple, and bulging blue veins appeared across his rugged black arms as he kept hugging the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River stubbornly. I finally found a treasure. I won’t let it go.
Furthermore, whether I can take a hot bath in future or not depends on this opportunity.
The Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River appeared to have sensed its tragic end if it fell into this person’s hands; it shook constantly, desperately struggling to get free from Lin Fan’s hold.
“You swine, you motherf****** swine!” He Tu roared in anger. He needed the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River as all his belongings were inside it.
This artifact was everything to him. He got it from the sect at a great price. It had a small self-formed space in it, which he usually used as a storage ring.
So, how could he allow someone else to take the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River away from him?
“Cauldron, come here!” he roared angrily again, urging the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River to come to his side.
“F*** off.” Lin Fan opened his mouth and bit the rim of the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River firmly; white plumes gushed out of his nose and his eyes widened. “If you want to summon your cauldron back, you will have to drag me with it.”
At this moment, what moved Lin Fan was the fact that the monster didn’t attack him but charged at He Tu instead.
Perhaps it wanted to make He Tu pay for suppressing it so miserably before.
He Tu might be an eighth-stage Earth Star Border cultivator, but he was not this monster’s opponent without the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River.
Boom!
The monster punched at He Tu, forcing He Tu to be on the defense. He Tu, in turn, mobilized his sparse earth energy to defend himself. As a result, he was immediately sent flying, leaving a trail of blood.
He didn’t have much earth energy left in him, and the pills to restore his earth energy were still in the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River.
Anger. Boundless anger surged from the bottom of his heart.
But now, he had to save himself first. Everything was nothing if he wasn’t alive to enjoy it.
“Remember me, because I’m definitely gonna kill you.” He Tu, seeing the monster charging at him, didn’t dare to remain here. He made a beeline into the distance at once.
However, what infuriated He Tu even more was the fact that the monster was hellbent on killing him and chased after him.
“You motherf****** swine.” The Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River was weighing on his mind, but the monster chasing him all the way left him no room to breathe. He was really unwilling to leave his cauldron here.
Originally, their group wanted to show off their ability and test their luck in this danger zone after obtaining the talisman. But now, even my original treasures have fallen here, let alone any chance encounter. What will I do after returning to the sect?
He enjoyed a high and honorable status in the sect with this artifact. No one among his peers was his opponent. Everyone on the same level was trampled under his feet. But now, his future in the sect would be extremely miserable.
At this moment, the Door of a Thousand Caves appeared before him. He didn’t want to leave, but with that ferocious monster hellbent on killing him, he jumped into the Door of a Thousand Caves for his life.
The monster immediately came to a stop before the Door of a Thousand Caves.
Just when Lin Fan’s teeth were on the verge of breaking, the struggling Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River calmed down.
“Cauldron, your master is really weak, he can’t even protect you. Your ultimate destination is to be with me,” Lin Fan muttered to himself. He might not have killed He Tu, but he sure had taken away the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River, which was more important.
He looked at the surroundings, and then looked at the blood pouring out of his wounds. Immediately afterward, he put the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River on his shoulder and ran into the distance.
In an instant, everything became extremely quiet. The deep pits remaining from the battle were the only proof of the battle that took place here.
But not long after, Lin Fan returned along the same way with the cauldron on his shoulder. He had forgotten the most important thing, and that was that he had not cleaned up the scene.
He came to the two guys who were pierced by countless swords and searched them thoroughly. He immediately put away the two storage rings after finding them. But just as he was about to leave again, he recalled the woman whose chest he had crushed.
He looked around and found the woman crawling in the distance, as if she knew her senior brothers were dead and if she continued to stay here, she would end up dead.
An Fumei kept crawling forward, leaving a trail of blood as the blood kept pouring out of her pierced chest.
“Hi!”
At this moment, a voice rang in her ears. An Fumei’s mind went blank suddenly. At first, when she saw Lin Fan leaving with her senior brother’s Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River, she believed that she could survive. She never expected him to come back soon after.
“Please let me go, I’m a woman, I’m powerless already. I beg you, please let me go and leave me to my fate.” An Fumei broke into tears and started begging. She was already in trepidation. In her opinion, the guy before her wasn’t human.
He is too strong.
Even Senior Brothers couldn’t kill him.
More importantly, she could only beg the other party to let her go and let her fend for herself here, but this was the dangerous land inside the Door of a Thousand Caves, so anything was possible. But as long as she escaped from Lin Fan’s hands, she might have a chance to leave this place alive.
“In fact, you are very pretty,” Lin Fan said while starting at the other party.
An Fumei was taken aback as if she couldn’t understand what the other party was implying. Then suddenly, she regained her wits, feeling that her chance had come.
“Yeah! Yeah! In fact, I’m seriously injured, but I’m willing to serve you as long as you save me. I’m serious, this is the first time for me. My father is an elder of the Oceanus Sect.”
Lin Fan squatted down; he seemed as if he was thinking very hard. Then, he asked, “In fact, I am a disciple of the Sunshine Sect. What do you think of the Magnificent Flame Sect?”
An Fumei’s beautiful face was filled with fear. She hurriedly replied, “The people of the Magnificent Flame Sect are pigs and ants. About a century ago, our Oceanus Sect rounded up the people of Magnificent Flame Sect in our territory and killed them all. The women were brutally raped and tortured to death while we cut off the heads of every man, tore them to pieces, and extracted their souls.”
“Oh, is that so?” Lin Fan, maintaining a straight face, stood up and stretched his hands out, looking at An Fumei in a perfectly calm manner.
“Thank you.” An Fumei, seeing Lin Fan reach out to her, heaved a sigh of relief. She then raised her hand with difficulty, thinking that the other party would give her a hand.
But suddenly, things took a turn for worse.
“What are you doing?” An Fumei looked horrified as if she didn’t understand what the other party wanted to do.
Lin Fan grabbed An Fumei’s arm, took the storage ring off her finger, and threw her into the air. Then, he made a fist with his right hand and put it near his waist, taking a boxing pose as he gathered his earth energy.
“No, you can’t kill me. I am the daughter of an Oceanus Sect elder!”
“Have a taste of my self-created punch, Firework Explosion Punch!” Lin Fan shouted as he punched at An Fumei. A majestic stream of earth energy broke out from his body and directly blew away the beautiful figure falling from the sky.
[TLN: Firework here refers to her as a prostitute.]
Then, he put the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River on his shoulder, turned around, and started making his way to the distance.
“Your fireworks can’t attract me.”
Boom!
A flower of blood dyed the sky red, bringing a touch of different color to this gray cave.
