Rakish Little Immortal Doctor

Although the Ghost Shadow Illusion Array was extremely formidable once activated, the core talisman was incredibly fragile. As Li Qianfan's fist landed on the core talisman, the wild force instantly shredded it to pieces. With the core talisman destroyed, the Ghost Shadow Illusion Array ceased to operate and rapidly began to dissipate. Soon, peace was restored within the temple courtyard. Xue Siqi regained her freedom of movement, the intense sensation of suffocation vanished, but there was no improvement for Zhao Susu. She slumped to the ground, clutching her chest as she struggled to breathe, her face contorted with pain. "Susu!" A sense of urgency gripped Xue Siqi's heart, and she immediately ran towards Zhao Susu. Li Qianfan looked back and said, "Siqi, take Susu and wait for me outside!" "Okay!" Xue Siqi nodded vigorously and promptly helped Zhao Susu off the ground. The two of them stumbled out of the temple. "Thump thump thump thump!" At that moment, Fatty Cat and Rat were recoiling as if they had been struck by a heavy blow, retreating continuously. They had just stabilized themselves when they saw a murderous Li Qianfan charging towards them at great speed. A sense of foreboding arose in their hearts; without the protection of the Formation, continuing the fight against Li Qianfan would only lead to certain death. Better to retreat and live to fight another day! Moreover, they had already retrieved the Black Pattern Stone, there was no need for further combat, the best course of action was to leave first. "Let's go!" The pair exchanged a glance and, in perfect unison, turned to flee, leaving the severely injured Chen Bo behind. "Brother Cat, Brother Rat, don't leave me behind!" Seeing that they were about to flee, Chen Bo desperately shouted out. However, Fatty Cat and Rat acted as if they hadn't heard at all, completely ignoring Chen Bo, which showed they never really considered him as one of their own. "Trying to run??" Li Qianfan's lips curled into a smile, and with a casual snap of his fingers, the Black Pattern Stone in Fatty Cat's embrace suddenly exploded with a powerful force. "Ugh..." Fatty Cat, hit by the impact, flew up only to slam heavily to the ground. Rat, who was close by, was also caught in the blow, falling to the ground as lifelessly as Fatty Cat, like a dead dog. "The Black Pattern Stone has been tampered with!" Fatty Cat saw the Black Pattern Stone fall to the side, his eyes filled with a look of shock. He knew Li Qianfan was strong, but he hadn't expected him to be formidable enough to tamper with the Black Pattern Stone. Li Qianfan walked over, bent down, and picked up the Black Pattern Stone from the ground, "Tell me, what exactly were you planning to do at Azure Dragon Mountain with this Black Pattern Stone?" At this point, Rat let out a cold, mocking laugh, his eyes brimming with viciousness, "Don't even think you'll get anything out of us. You just need to know that we are not people you can afford to offend. You'd better let us go peacefully, or you will die without a place to be buried!" "The thing I hate the most is when people threaten me!" A cold light flashed in Li Qianfan's eyes as he stomped on Rat's head. Boom! Before Rat could even scream, his head burst under Li Qianfan's foot like a watermelon, splattering blood and dyeing the ground red. Upon witnessing this scene, Fatty Cat was thunderstruck, his mind went blank. He couldn't believe that Li Qianfan was so ruthless, directly killing his accomplice. "Dare to kill my brother, I'll make sure you die a horrible death!" Fatty Cat gritted his teeth, his expression becoming extremely ferocious. "I'm not just killing your brother, I'm going to kill you too." A murderous glint swept across Li Qianfan's eyes as he kicked towards Fatty Cat's head. Clearly, Fatty Cat was already on guard and promptly performed a hand seal, his body becoming ethereal in an instant. As Li Qianfan's kick landed, rolling black mist emanated from him, and with a muffled sound, Li Qianfan's kick missed its target. As the black mist dissipated, Fatty Cat disappeared without a trace leaving only a torn talisman on the ground. "Li Qianfan, you've killed a member of the Ten Thousand Talisman Sect; our enmity is now set in stone. I swear I will use your blood to commemorate my deceased brother. I will grind you to dust, leaving you begging for life but unable to beg for death!!" Fatty Cat's hoarse roar echoed through the air. Li Qianfan dismissed Fatty Cat's threats with contempt, first glancing at the headless corpse on the ground, then turning his gaze to Chen Bo, who was shivering in fear nearby, and said indifferently, "I'll spare your life. Take his body to find Fatty Cat, and tell him, the next time we meet, I'm taking his life!"
