I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head

Chapter 251: Killing Lan Huayu With a Single Slash

This plump man’s face could not be seen clearly due to the mask on his face. Not only did it offer defensive qualities, but it also acted as a cover.

This plump man with a medium build exuded an extremely dangerous aura. It was different from the faint killing intent of a student. It was the killing intent of someone who had been on the battlefield for a long time.

Countless thoughts instantly flashed through Chu Yunfan’s mind. This was a training ground for the survival program. Before the program began, it had already been cleared by the troops. In other words. There were zero possibilities of an outsider sneaking in. After the cleaning, an electromagnetic wall was erected.

Although the martial arts development of the world was prosperous, and the martial arts experts rivaled the stars in the sky—brilliant and invincible—the technological development did not lag behind. On the contrary, it was on par with martial arts.

Some powerful weapons could even pose an extremely terrifying threat to the top martial artists. Although this electromagnetic wall was not a real wall, it was very difficult to pass through. Unless its energy was exhausted, it could even withstand the force of a violent monster swarm. A mere human couldn’t cross the electromagnetic wall. It was not that no one could cross it, but despite his terrifying aura, this plump man was not very strong.

Everything was clear as day.

“Soldiers!” Chu Yunfan blurted out.

But this was not a soldier. Why would a soldier chase after him?

“You’re a soldier who was developed into a spy by the Monster Cult!”

Chu Yunfan immediately came to realize. He had long heard that the Monster Cult had infiltrated the Federation Government and the army. Looking at the situation, it was indeed the case.

Just as Chu Yunfan was about to step back and flee, a figure appeared behind him. This figure had a strong build, like an iron tower. He was also wearing black armor and had his face covered by a mask. However, both of their physical features were unique. It would not be difficult to find them within a crowd. Of course, the prerequisite was that he could escape.

“Neat skills you’ve got there. We underestimated you,” a leisurely voice came from atop a towering ancient tree.

Immediately after, a figure stepped out from the shadows. Chu Yunfan looked closely and realized that this person was Lan Huayu, the elite student of the second level of the Energy Refinement Stage who had tried to stop Chu Yunfan previously.

“You’re also part of the cult?” Chu Yunfan blurted out.

Lan Huayu was slightly taken aback. He had not expected Chu Yunfan to put the pieces together so quickly.

“I wasn’t expecting you to deduce my background so quickly.” Lan Huayu’s eyes flashed with a bright light. “I have to say. You, who came from an ordinary school, have achieved such feats. It’s pretty impressive. Pity you’ve offended our cult. Your only option now is to go to hell.

“If Jiang Yusheng’s people weren’t looking for you everywhere, it wouldn’t have been so easy for us to find you,” Lan Huanyu said.

Chu Yunfan finally understood that he was not the only one who had been secretly thinking of ways to deal with his enemy, the Monster Cult. The cult had been thinking about how to eliminate him too. They had long viewed him as a thorn in their side. On top of that, they had taken advantage of Jiang Yusheng’s search to find him.

Chu Yunfan had it all figured out. Previously, Lan Huanyu had wrangled together many students to stop him. It was most likely not for the so-called glory of Zone 2, but some other purpose. It was just that no one knew of Lan Huanyu’s true identity at that time.

“I didn’t expect the dignified Monster Cult to pay attention to a small fry like me,” Chu Yunfan said indifferently. As he spoke, his eyes kept darting around, looking for a way out of the encirclement.

The two spies that had been planted in the army were elites. They were probably at the peak of the Energy Refinement Stage—no less than the black-clothed woman who had attempted to kidnap his sister. Although Chu Yunfan’s strength was much stronger than before, his chances of winning were slim because these two were wearing armor. This made them very difficult to deal with.

“This is an order given by our new leader. Now, you have two choices. One, you die. Or two, come with us and serve the cult,” Lan Huanyu said.

By saying that Chu Yunfan would be made to serve the cult, it was obvious that they wanted to brainwash him. Most of the ones who joined the cult did so unwillingly. They went through intense brainwashing before they chose to serve the cult.

“There’s no need to think about escaping, or about calling for help. The signal within the vicinity has been blocked off. We’ve already arranged it so that you won’t be able to leave here alive.” Lan Huayu said proudly.

He had thought of everything before he had made his move. In his eyes, Chu Yunfan was a fish caught in a net. Chu Yunfan couldn’t escape.

“You’re well-prepared,” Chu Yunfan sneered.

“Of course, to catch you— ” before Lan Huayu could finish his sentence, a black shadow rushed toward him.

Lan Huayu was shocked and angry. He roared, “You still dare to resist?!”

He had not expected that Chu Yunfan would not surrender and still dared to attack him.

At the same time, the two experts at the peak of the Energy Refinement Stage pounced on Chu Yunfan. The huge hammer was flung in Chu Yunfan’s direction.

Quick!

Quick!

Quick!

Dangerous!

Close!

Close!

Chu Yunfan barely stopped to think. With quick, nimble steps, he arrived in front of Lan Huayu. He focused all his attention on this one strike. He knew that this was his only chance. If he missed it, it would be very difficult for him to escape the two experts. If it came down to that, he would have to hide in the Mountain River Diagram. But he did not wish to expose his secret weapon. He did not want to invite further scrutiny from the cult. Spatial treasures were precious items as humans had yet to conquer space technology. Therefore, Chu Yunfan had no other choice.

“Heaven’s Thunder!”

His saber swept out a streak of black light as if it was going to split the entire world apart.

Slash!

The saber connected with Lan Huanyu’s neck and his head was sent flying.
