Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 97: Chapter 97: Physique Exhibition of Might

A few disciples wanted to stop him.

But noticing that the Big Senior Brother had no intention to stop it, they sensibly sat back on their benches.

Tao Zhengjun’s mountainous body caused a slight vibration on the ground.

Though he looked clumsy, his steps were actually quick.

In just a few strides, he reached Jiang Fan’s back.

His enormous body cast a heavy shadow, engulfing Jiang Fan completely.

“Still eating?”

Tao Zhengjun saw Jiang Fan still eating without any regard for him, which made him chuckle in anger.

“Do you really think that just because Senior Sister Liu favors you, you can do whatever you want?”

He grabbed Jiang Fan’s shoulder and snorted coldly,

“Let me tell you, the hierarchy among newcomers is established through skill, not women. Got it?”

Jiang Fan put down his chopsticks.

His brows gradually furrowed, and he said calmly, “Take your hand off!”

Tao Zhengjun laughed and instead of letting go, he slowly increased his grip.

He practiced the Dual Cultivation of Body and Magic.

The strength in his hand could easily crush a rock.

Anyone caught in his grip wouldn’t be able to free themselves unless their bones were broken.

“What, feeling defiant? Let’s see what you’ve got!”

He was ready for Jiang Fan to use his spiritual power.

Even anticipating what moves Jiang Fan would use.

However.

Jiang Fan did something none of the disciples present had expected.

He reached out his palm and grabbed Tao Zhengjun’s hand.

Due to the difference in their sizes.

Jiang Fan’s hand appeared like a baby’s hand grasping an adult’s palm.

Tao Zhengjun couldn’t help but laugh, “What, you want to compete in strength with me?”

“You scrawny thing, how much strength do you think you have?”

Even the Big Senior Brother from a distance showed a trace of disdain.

When engaging in battle, one should avoid others’ strengths and attack their weaknesses.

But Jiang Fan chose to confront Tao Zhengjun head-on in his strongest domain.

Such a mindset, yet he’s fit to be a disciple of the Sect Master Peak?

However, in the next moment.

A sudden scream echoed in the dining hall!

It was Tao Zhengjun’s!

The Big Senior Brother glanced sideways in surprise, his pupils shrinking.

Jiang Fan’s seemingly small palm effortlessly grabbed Tao Zhengjun’s wrist, slowly and steadily removing his hand from his shoulder.

Without using much strength, he caused Tao Zhengjun, who practiced Body Refinement, to jump in pain.

As he tried to pull his hand back, it was as if clamped by iron, unable to retrieve it.

This scene left the disciples in shock.

Then.

Jiang Fan easily flung, and the tower-like Tao Zhengjun was sent retreating repeatedly by an immense force.

He collided with a supporting pillar, causing the entire roof to shake.

Feeling humiliated, Tao Zhengjun looked around at the stupefied gazes around him.

“Let’s go again!”

He roared, running and pouncing forward.

He threw his fists fiercely at Jiang Fan’s back.

Jiang Fan, feeling annoyed, stood up suddenly and said, “If I don’t knock you down, I can’t eat properly.”

Faced with the incoming fists, he responded with equally unskilled punches.

Pa—

It sounded like a whip cracking against the ground.

Tao Zhengjun’s massive running body suddenly bounced back as if hitting a wall, knocking over several tables, lying on the ground groaning in pain.

His arms were in severe pain as if the bones were shattered, unable even to bend.

In contrast, Jiang Fan expressionlessly walked to him with his hands behind his back.

One foot on his chest.

With just a slight force, the pain made Tao Zhengjun scream like a pig being slaughtered.

“Do you still want to compete?” Jiang Fan asked indifferently.

Tao Zhengjun immediately understood.

He had encountered someone whose Body Refinement Realm far exceeded his own.

He shook his head and conceded, “No more, no more, I give up, I surrender.”

Only then did Jiang Fan remove his foot.

Allowing Tao Zhengjun to finally breathe.

Recalling the previous scene, Tao Zhengjun completely feared Jiang Fan, shrank his neck, and kept his distance, not daring to provoke him again.

The disciples were dumbfounded.@@novelbin@@

“Wow, Junior Brother Jiang really hides his strength! He’s actually a body technique expert!”

“No wonder Senior Sister Liu favors him so much.”

“A talent, definitely a talent. Our Green Cloud Sect has very few Body Refinement practitioners, now our Sect Master Peak has produced a good seedling for Body Refinement.”

Pa—

A crisp sound was heard.

The Big Senior Brother put down his chopsticks, and with his hands behind his back, he strode imposingly towards Jiang Fan.

“Causing trouble in the dining hall, do you realize your mistake?”

Jiang Fan, ready to return to his meal, frowned. Another one?

“State your name before speaking!”

A nearby female disciple scolded, “Rude, this is our Sect Master Peak’s Big Senior Brother, Wang Chengjian, Senior Brother Wang!”

So this was the Big Senior Brother.

Jiang Fan spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, “Big Senior Brother asks well.”

“When causing trouble, you didn’t stop it. Do you realize your mistake?”

The series of counter-questions made the disciples gasp.p>

As expected of being under Senior Sister Liu’s protection.

Daring to speak to the Big Senior Brother like this!

On some level, the Big Senior Brother supervised the junior disciples on behalf of the master.

He held great power.

If other disciples dared to do this, they would have been punished on the spot.

But Jiang Fan, Wang Chengjian feared his relationship with Liu Qingxian.

Moreover, he himself was suspected of condoning the contention today.

If things escalated, he couldn’t escape punishment either.

Wang Chengjian’s eyes darkened slightly, then he slowly said, “Courageous.”

Jiang Fan cupped his hands and said plainly, “Thank you for the compliment, Big Senior Brother!”

Wang Chengjian replied indifferently, “You’re welcome, I hope you can perform as well as now in a few days’ task.”

“Otherwise, I don’t mind making you clean the latrines.”

With that, he walked away with his hands behind his back.

Jiang Fan shrugged indifferently and continued eating.

In the shocked gazes of the disciples, he ate a total of five large bowls before he was finally full.

Returning to his cave dwelling.

Jiang Fan didn’t idle. He took out several common spices, ground them into powder one by one, then sifted out the coarse particles.

Finally, he blended the spices together and slowly roasted them over a small flame.

By the next morning.

He had a jade bottle in his hand.

It contained half a bottle of clear liquid.

“Let’s test it.” Jiang Fan went to the cliff on the eastern side of Sect Master Peak.

The Wolf Head Bees’ hive was halfway down the cliff.

Not to mention how fierce the Wolf Head Bees were.

The act of climbing down itself was quite perilous.

When he arrived, three other disciples tasked with collecting honey were helping to lower a rope, mining the hive below.

After a long while.

They finally climbed up, looking quite embarrassed.

Two were fine, their bodies wrapped tightly like two big bears.

The Wolf Head Bees’ poison needles couldn’t pierce through their thick clothing.

The other rotund disciple, the one who had called Jiang Fan for food, wasn’t so lucky.

His large belly had stretched his pants, exposing his skin.

The Wolf Head Bees mercilessly stung him forty-nine times, causing his skin to swell with red bumps.

He rolled on the ground in agony.

“Ah! Give me the Pain Relieving Pill.” he cried, his head in his hands, doubting life from the pain.

The other two disciples looked troubled.

“We gave you the last of our Pain Relieving Pills last time.”

Upon hearing this, the rotund disciple let out a wail of despair.

Jiang Fan’s ears were nearly deafened.

He acted decisively.

Punching him in the back of the head.

The rotund disciple rolled his eyes and fainted.

“Pain Relieving Pills don’t work as well as this.” Jiang Fan muttered.

The two disciples were dumbfounded.

But upon reflection, it was indeed effective.

Simple and crude.

And it saved on Spirit Pills.

Seeing Jiang Fan there, the two disciples were surprised, “Is Junior Brother also tasked with collecting Wolf Head Honey?”

Jiang Fan nodded, picking up a rope, “I’ll borrow your rope.”

“Wait, Junior Brother!” the two disciples shouted in unison.

“You can’t go down! There’s a problem in the hive right now! It’s too dangerous for anyone to go!”
