Xu Chuan raised an eyebrow.
This person was actually Chu Fan, the scumbag who had wronged his sister in the script.
He had seen this name many times and hadn't had the chance to confront him.
He never expected him to show up at his doorstep.
However, he then thought of Xiao Chen's script and understood.
Chu Fan must have come here to search for the Emperor's Origin as well.
According to the script, Xiao Chen ultimately died at Chu Fan's hands.
And Jin Xiu also died at the hands of Chu Fan's cheat.
But Xu Chuan had already beaten him to it.
Despite this, Xu Chuan and Chu Fan still encountered each other.
Xu Chuan felt a pang of emotion, the power to correct fate was truly formidable.
If he were to be defeated by this Chu Fan today, the Emperor's Origin and the vast soul power would all fall back into Chu Fan's hands.
This made Xu Chuan even more determined to eliminate Chu Fan.
He couldn't let his sister, Xu Xingli, be corrected back into the fate depicted in the script.
He would not allow it.
With this realization, a ruthless glint flashed in Xu Chuan's eyes.
Although they were both disciples of the Sacred Land, Xu Chuan would not let him off the hook because of that.
Protagonists like these were all unstable factors, and Xu Chuan would absolutely not tolerate their existence!
Furthermore, out of concern for his sister, this Chu Fan had to die!
However, Xu Chuan had no intention of acting immediately.
He wanted to see what this protagonist, with his cheat, had in store for him!
"Brother Xu, you are the Ninth Quasi-Saint Son of the Taiyi Sacred Land, I don't think you would hold such a grudge, would you?"
Chu Fan said with a smile, then revealed his martial cultivation of Nirvana Realm ninth level to everyone.
The surrounding cultivators heard this.
Their expressions changed drastically.
"What, he's the Quasi-Saint Son of the Taiyi Sacred Land? That peerless prodigy?"
"Quasi-Saint Son Xu Chuan? No wonder he has such strength, these people didn't die unjustly!"
"The Dao Discussion Assembly is over, shouldn't he have returned to the Taiyi Sacred Land? Why is he here?"
These cultivators exclaimed in surprise, murmuring amongst themselves.
Hearing the praise for Xu Chuan.
Chu Fan secretly curled his lip.
As the owner of a mysterious book.
Relying on this almost prescient ability, he had, in a short period, progressed from the Body Tempering realm to the current Nirvana Realm ninth level.
He considered himself second to none.
He didn't put Xu Chuan, this Quasi-Saint Son, in his eyes at all.
In fact, he had already harbored murderous intent towards Xu Chuan for stealing the position of Quasi-Saint Son.
"A bunch of bumpkins who've never seen the world, what is Xu Chuan to you!"
"When I rise, I'll show you what a peerless prodigy is!"
He vowed in his heart.
In the future, he would also make a name for himself and be admired by thousands.
Despite his many thoughts, his expression remained a smile.
A smile that confidently believed he would win against Xu Chuan.
He was very confident in his strength.
With his Nirvana Realm ninth level cultivation, even a Reincarnation Realm sixth level cultivator would not be his match.
As for Xu Chuan's past performance at the Dao Discussion Assembly, he believed that if he were to step onto the stage, he would be no weaker than Xu Chuan, and would only be stronger!
With this mindset, he had no fear of Xu Chuan.
Chu Fan observed Xu Chuan.
Xu Chuan also observed Chu Fan.
Both had the intention to kill the other.
His mind churning with thoughts, Xu Chuan snapped back to attention, his gaze falling on Chu Fan, and he asked with a half-smile, "Junior Brother, may I know your name?"
"My name is Chu Fan, an outer disciple of the Sacred Land. Senior Brother Xu may not have heard of me, but I have heard much of Senior Brother Xu's name!"
Chu Fan said nonchalantly.
During this time, he had already shed his identity as a handyman disciple and successfully been promoted to an outer disciple of the Taiyi Sacred Land.
He didn't believe that Xu Chuan would dare to make a move after he revealed his cultivation.
If Xu Chuan were to attack today, he would have a reason to kill Xu Chuan, and he believed the Sacred Land would not say anything.
Instead, he might even become the new Ninth Quasi-Saint Son.
"How dare you, an outer disciple of the Sacred Land, speak to me, a Quasi-Saint Son, in such a manner!"
"Giving you face? Who do you think you are?"
Suddenly.
Xu Chuan's expression changed drastically, and he rebuked sharply.
He showed Chu Fan no respect at all.
He had already decided to deal with this fated protagonist today.
He must be eliminated while he was still weak, otherwise, he would surely become a great disaster in the future.
But before Xu Chuan could make a move, Chu Fan attacked first.
"Hmph, Xu Chuan, I call you Quasi-Saint Son out of respect, and you really think you're someone? Today, I will strike you down here!"
Sensing Xu Chuan's sharp gaze, Chu Fan, who had been smiling all along, suddenly became sullen and looked at Xu Chuan with malice.
"Die, Xu Chuan!"
Chu Fan roared, his book moving without wind, its pages fluttering rapidly.
The book in his hand was his cheat, the mysterious book he had obtained by chance.
His current achievements were all thanks to this book.
Moreover, he had also inadvertently discovered that this book could be used as a weapon.
Today, he would use this book to slay Xu Chuan.
The pages suddenly stopped, flipping to a page with a drawing of a sword, and then, a heaven-shattering sword energy slashed towards Xu Chuan.
The might of this sword energy made the surrounding cultivators feel terror.
Immediately, they dared not linger to watch and scattered.
"Boom!"
However, just as the sword energy was about to strike Xu Chuan.
A blinding golden light erupted from Xu Chuan's body.
An invisible wall blocked this sword energy, preventing it from advancing an inch.
Following that, a ball of golden light flew from above Xu Chuan's head and directly enveloped Chu Fan's book.
Instantly, his mysterious book was suppressed by the Golden Ancient Palace.
"What?!"
Losing his book, Chu Fan's expression changed drastically.
The reason he had such confidence was entirely due to this divine book.
Moreover, everything he had learned came from the opportunities provided by the divine book.
Without the divine book, he was like a severed hand.
He had strength but could not exert it.
"Xu Chuan, give me back my divine book!"
Chu Fan panicked and roared.
However, Xu Chuan completely ignored Chu Fan.
The God Killing Saber appeared in his hand, and the God Slaying Saber Technique was unleashed again.
Just as before on the stage.
A heaven-shattering saber energy appeared, its target being Chu Fan.
"Come back, quickly come back!"
Sensing this earth-shattering saber energy, Chu Fan was no longer as smug as before.
He felt an overwhelming sense of dread engulf him.
Instantly.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his back grew cold, feeling a chill constantly rising.
Having originated as a handyman disciple, his mental fortitude was not particularly strong.
Once the divine book left his hand, he no longer knew what to do, and only felt panic within.
At this moment.
Chu Fan completely lost his composure.
His handyman disciple nature was fully exposed.
"Impossible, how could he suppress my divine book!"
"What is that thing!?"
"Why, why is Xu Chuan so powerful?!"
He roared in his heart.
But on his face, an uncontrollable fear appeared, he couldn't even speak, and his legs felt weak.
He had obtained the divine book for too short a time.
Even though he was the protagonist of this world, and even though his cultivation had greatly increased, his true nature remained that of an untalented individual.
"Die!"
Xu Chuan had no desire to waste more words with him.
He also did not expect this fated protagonist to be so pathetic.
As his words fell, the saber energy also descended, and the aura of death enveloped Chu Fan.
"No, you can't kill me..."
Chu Fan cried out hoarsely, his face filled with terror.
At this moment, the divine book, suppressed by the Golden Ancient Palace, trembled, trying to break free from the suppression.
"Yes, that's it, come back quickly!"
Seeing this, Chu Fan's face lit up with joy.
As long as he had the divine book in hand, he could kill Xu Chuan!
However, the divine book was firmly suppressed by the Golden Ancient Palace, unable to break through even an inch.
"Boom!"
With a deafening sound, the divine book shattered under the immense pressure, turning into sheets of paper that flew everywhere.
"No!"
Seeing this, Chu Fan completely broke down.
He couldn't believe that the divine book, which he had always considered his cheat, was so easily shattered.
At this time, Xu Chuan's saber energy also arrived before Chu Fan.
With one strike, it directly annihilated Chu Fan's physical body.
Then, Chu Fan's soul appeared, and Xu Chuan reached out, directly absorbing his soul into his palm.
