Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 384: Chapter 384: Fate Plays Tricks on People! (3rd Update)

”Hmph, you sure ran fast!”

The Ghost-faced Demon Lord tossed Ye Fan’s bloody arm aside and sneered at Ling Feng.

”Ling Feng, it’s your turn to die! You deserve to die too!” The Ghost-faced Demon Lord’s eyes brimmed with intense hatred, his voice raspy like an evil ghost from purgatory.

”Ghost-faced Demon, do we know each other?”

Ling Feng had initially intended to use the Ghost-faced Demon Lord to teach those from the True Dragon Academy a lesson, but he had not expected that he would play his hand too heavily, and this Ghost-faced Demon Lord actually possessed a secret technique that could unleash such explosive power—it was something Ling Feng had not anticipated.

However, as for the deaths of Jin Xiuming, Qi Hao, and others, Ling Feng did not feel a hint of unease. These people were ill-intentioned from the beginning, and they were enemies anyway. Any semblance of mercy towards an enemy was superfluous.

”Cackling...” The Ghost-faced Demon Lord laughed uproariously, ”What, have you become the new Sect Leader and completely forgotten about me, the former one?”

”What?” Ling Feng’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably, and he looked at the Ghost-faced Demon Lord in disbelief, ”You are... Lin Canglang?”

Lin—Cang—lang—

Ling Feng’s voice echoed through the forest, lingering for a long time.

And in that moment, Lin Xian’er, who was hiding behind an ancient tree, felt as if struck by thunder, frozen in place.

”Dad?” No matter what, Lin Xian’er couldn’t believe that her own father, who was always so loving and caring toward her, could become a murderous demon.

And what was this about a new Sect Leader, an old Sect Leader? How could there be such deep-seated hatred between her father and Ling Feng?

”Xian’er, Xian’er!”

Yun Yiyi, who was nearby, noticed something off with Lin Xian’er and gently nudged her, asking with concern, ”Xian’er, what’s wrong?”

Lin Xian’er bit her lip, her expression incredibly gloomy as she gritted her teeth, ”It’s nothing...”

But inside, Lin Xian’er’s heart was in complete turmoil. Could that ghost-faced man really be her father?

Impossible, this was absolutely impossible!

”Hehehe...”

The Ghost-faced Demon Lord’s eyes, filled with resentment, were fixed on Ling Feng, ”Wouldn’t have expected it, right? Heaven hasn’t abandoned me, allowing me to acquire the Supreme Demon Technique, just so you can die without a burial place!”

”How about it, don’t you have a Demon Monarch Spirit Pet? Summon it! Today, I shall ’kill Gods when Gods block and kill Buddhas when Buddhas block’!”

The Ghost-faced Demon Lord’s eyes split with fury, and while removing his ghost mask, he said viciously, ”Ling Feng, you will certainly die today!”

”So it really is you!”

Ling Feng’s pupils contracted slightly as he stared at the Ghost-faced Demon Lord and said icily, ”Sect Leader Lin, I didn’t expect you to have such a tough life!”

”You and that old man Duanmu Qingshan haven’t died, how could I bear to die?”

The Ghost-faced Demon Lord raised his hand and cackled strangely, ”Who would’ve thought heaven has eyes! I planned to master the Demon Technique and ascend to the Wenxian Sect to take the lives of you and your disciple, but now it seems you’ll go ahead of that old man Duanmu Qingshan, buried right here!”

The sound of his sinister laughter echoed through the forest, while the cries of ghosts and howls of wolves spread fear over a hundred miles, sending every flying bird and creature trembling in their nests, daring not to stir.

Behind the towering ancient tree, Lin Xian’er fell into complete despair.

The merciless demon who had slaughtered the village belonging to Jiang Xiaofan was truly her father.

”No, how could this be?”

Tears formed in Lin Xian’er’s eyes as she suddenly felt so dizzy she could hardly stand.

”Xian’er, what is the matter with you? What’s impossible? What are you talking about?”

Yun Yiyi supported Lin Xian’er, perplexed; the girl had been energetic and jumping around just before, but she seemed to become peculiar after seeing the Ghost-faced Demon Lord.

Could it be that Lin Xian’er’s transformation was related to the Ghost-faced man?

”No... I don’t believe it, I refuse to believe it!”

Lin Xian’er clenched her fists tightly, her eyes brimming with tears. In her memory, her father was a dignified Sect Leader, and although the Wenxian Sect wasn’t a Major Sect, it was definitely not of the Evil Path!

Why? Why had her father become like this?

Lin Xian’er gritted her teeth and stood up, breaking free from Yun Yiyi’s embrace. Step by step, as if in a trance, she slowly walked towards Lin Canglang.

”Xian’er, Xian’er!”

Yun Yiyi stamped her feet in anxiety, but no matter how she called out, Lin Xian’er acted as if she had lost her soul and completely ignored her cries.

”Enough talk. I have already revealed my true identity to you; even if you die now, you won’t be a confused ghost.”

Lin Canglang let out a ferocious laugh and put the Ghost Mask back on, making his already eerie and terrifying aura even more sinister and horrifying!

Ling Feng stared at Lin Canglang, who resembled Yama, an Evil Ghost, his face taking on an expression of grave seriousness.

After using the Forbidden Technique, Lin Canglang’s strength had reached the level of the Divine Origin Realm. His ghostly and unpredictable speed was even more dreadful than that of the Fifth-rank Demon Beast, Sky Swallowing Dragon Python, that Ling Feng had encountered before!

With his own strength alone, he feared he would definitely be unable to defeat this man.

Just as Ling Feng was considering whether to directly summon his black donkey to deal with the menace that was Lin Canglang, he suddenly noticed Lin Xian’er, at the edge of the battlefield, moving toward the fight in a forlorn manner, step by step.

”Miss Xian’er, get back quickly, don’t be reckless!”

Ling Feng’s face changed drastically, knowing that with Lin Xian’er’s strength, if she caught Lin Canglang’s attention, it would surely be a path leading only to death.

Goo Tengfeng, who was already exhausted and barely able to stand while leaning against a big tree, also shouted with all his might, ”Junior Sister Lin, get back quickly!”

Even he wasn’t sure he could escape from the claws of the ”Ghost-faced Demon Lord” in his current state, and yet Lin Xian’er dared to approach—wasn’t this seeking death?

However, to everyone’s surprise, the ”Ghost-faced Demon Lord” Lin Canglang actually froze for a moment. As he watched Lin Xian’er approach, a slight tremor even appeared on his body.

”Xian’er...” Lin Canglang’s face twisted before he bellowed, ”Stop! Don’t come any closer!”

Lin Xian’er, as if soulless, raised her head and looked at the Ghost Mask on Lin Canglan’s face, tears streaming down, ”Daddy, why have you become like this!”

Daddy?

A single stone stirred up a thousand ripples!

Everyone was once again dumbfounded.

Lin Xian’er was the daughter of the Ghost-faced Demon Lord?

Ling Feng stared in disbelief at Lin Xian’er, his mind echoing: How could this be? How could this be?...

Apart from sharing the surname Lin, how could Lin Xian’er and Lin Canglang have anything in common?

Lin Canglang was a thorough scoundrel, so how could the daughter of such a shameless man be someone as straightforward, sincere, and guileless as Lin Xian’er?

Impossible!

But the reality was right before his eyes, leaving Ling Feng no choice but to believe.

Yun Yiyi and Goo Tengfeng also took a deep breath, their faces a picture of astonishment.

Lin Xian’er’s father turned out to be the Demon they were tasked to kill on their Demon Slaying mission!

As a daughter, yet she had received the mission to kill her own father.

Indeed, this was the cruel twist of fate...
