Nangong Jing approached Lin Fan and said, "You’re too reckless; you shouldn’t have killed Zhao Zhengyi!"
Lin Fan replied, "If I didn’t kill him today, he would cause me endless troubles in the future. To avoid that hassle, I had no choice but to kill him!"
Nangong Jing shook her head and said, "No, your troubles will only be greater after killing Zhao Zhengyi."
Lin Fan insisted, "Even so, I had to kill Zhao Zhengyi. If I hadn’t, I would have felt extremely uncomfortable!"
After hearing Lin Fan’s words, Nangong Jing and the others were left speechless.
Killing someone simply because you feel uncomfortable inside?
Such a reason for murder is truly baffling, isn’t it?
Then, Nangong Jing continued, "The Zhao Family where Zhao Zhengyi came from has a huge influence. More importantly, many geniuses from the Zhao Family are within the Inner Court of the Sky Star Sect. Just as Zhao Zhengyi said earlier, once news of Zhao Zhengyi’s death gets out, once you enter the Inner Court of the Sky Star Sect, you will have difficulty at every turn!"
At this point, Nangong Jing paused slightly, her eyes swept over the minions brought by Zhao Zhengyi, and a murderous aura appeared around her as she said coldly, "To prevent the news from spreading today, I suggest we kill all of these people. As long as they are dead, the Zhao Family will never find out you were the murderer."
Upon hearing Nangong Jing’s words, their faces paled.
They knew well that if Lin Fan took Nangong Jing’s advice and made a move against them, they would have no chance of survival.
Not even a chance to resist.
At this time, Lin Fan’s gaze also turned towards them.
When they made eye contact with Lin Fan, they became even more frightened.
It was as if they had sensed murderous intent in Lin Fan’s eyes.
Finally, someone couldn’t help but beg for mercy, "Please, don’t kill us. We promise that what happened today will not be uttered by us!"
"Yes, we promise we won’t speak of it!"
The men continuously begged for mercy.
However, Lin Fan remained silent, just standing there quietly.
Nangong Jing spoke again, "Lin Fan, don’t hesitate, just do it!"
At that moment, Lin Fan shook his head and said, "Forget it, let them go!"
Nangong Jing was taken aback, she couldn’t believe her ears, she hadn’t expected the previously decisive Lin Fan to become so indecisive all of a sudden?
If these people leave alive, she and Lin Fan would only encounter more troubles in the future.
Nangong Jing wanted to persuade Lin Fan further.
But Lin Fan interrupted her, "In the face of adversity, one can continuously improve oneself. Let these bastards go and let them tell the Zhao Family. Let the Zhao Family create trouble for me in the future; it can help me to strengthen my abilities. Isn’t that a good thing, heh heh!"
Nangong Jing was speechless.
Lin Fan’s peculiar reasoning was indeed not simple.
To intentionally let these people go just to grow in adversity?
What Nangong Jing didn’t know was that Lin Fan didn’t really want to kill these people.
Although Lin Fan didn’t consider himself a good person, he was not a maniacal killer.
True, the people in front of him were quite annoying.
But they did not deserve to die!
That’s why Lin Fan didn’t intend to kill them.
Then Nangong Jing asked Lin Fan, "Do you really intend to let them go?"
Lin Fan nodded and said, "Yes, I’m planning to let them go!"
Nangong Jing said helplessly, "Since you’ve already decided, I have nothing more to say, but I just hope that you won’t regret it later on!"
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "Don’t worry, I won’t regret anything I do!"
Nangong Jing fell silent.
It wasn’t that Nangong Jing didn’t want to speak, but under these circumstances, she really didn’t know what to say.
At this point, Lin Fan’s gaze slowly swept over the people and he asked, "Aren’t you all leaving yet? Or are you waiting for me to invite you for tea?"
"Thank you, Junior Brother Lin Fan!"
The people no longer dared to hesitate and quickly stood up to leave.
Although their bodies ached all over.
But they dared not linger here, hastening their departure as quickly as possible, for fear that Lin Fan might change his mind if they left too late.
If Lin Fan changed his mind, they would not be able to leave.
After these people left, Nangong Jing looked at Lin Fan helplessly and said, "You really have the compassion of a woman. You should have killed them just now!"
Lin Fan laughed and said, "I enjoy killing people, but I do not relish slaying the innocent."
Nangong Jing looked at Lin Fan.
For a moment, Nangong Jing found she couldn’t see through Lin Fan at all!
"Alright, let’s keep moving forward!"
Lin Fan strode forward and asked, "By the way, Nangong Jing, do you know of any treasures within this minor world?"
Nangong Jing said, "To my knowledge, one of the treasures in this minor world is the World Crystal Stone. Although it’s a treasure, it’s not difficult to find. In fact, many people who have come here are after the World Heart."
Lin Fan asked, puzzled.
Nangong Jing said, "Don’t tell me you don’t know about the World Heart of this minor world?"
Lin Fan replied with a somewhat helpless smile, "Honestly, I know nothing about this minor world!"
Nangong Jing said helplessly, "It’s really unexpected that you didn’t inquire about the minor world before entering it."
Lin Fan just smiled and did not dwell on the topic.
In truth, it wasn’t that Lin Fan didn’t want to inquire, but when he was at the Sky Star Sect, he had been busy with cultivation and simply had no time to learn about these things.
And because of this, Lin Fan was completely ignorant of the minor world’s circumstances.
Then Lin Fan asked, "Nangong Jing, you mentioned the World Heart just now, what exactly is that? How do we go about finding the World Heart?"
Nangong Jing shook her head and said, "I don’t know the exact method to find the World Heart, but what I do know is that the World Heart is formed by the willpower of this world. Once you find and refine the World Heart, you are able to take control of the will of this minor world. You should understand that once a cultivator takes control of the will of a minor world, they can become the master of that world. Moreover, their own strength will also rapidly increase by a great deal!"
"Take control of the world’s will?"
Lin Fan was initially startled.
But soon after, he couldn’t help but look forward with anticipation.
Currently, Lin Fan’s Will Realm was at the Mortal Fifth Layer.
Frankly speaking, aside from continually interpreting the Will Paintings left by the Seven-star Wanderer, Lin Fan really didn’t know any other method to advance his Will Realm.
But evidently, if he could obtain the world’s will of this minor world, his Will Realm would inevitably receive a significant boost.
Once his Will Realm improved, his mastery over the Array Path would follow suit, and at that time, his overall strength would surely reach an incredibly high level.
At that moment, Lin Fan had already decided in his heart—he would spare no effort to obtain the World Heart.
