Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 966 - The Senior Brothers and Sisters’ Shock

As soon as Chen Fan returned to the Peerless Peak, he ran into his fifth senior sister, Zhuge Mingyue. Her expression changed when she saw his injuries. She hurriedly asked, “Junior Brother, what happened to you?”

“I’m fine, Fifth Senior Sister. Just some superficial injuries.” Chen Fan shook his head and smiled.

Zhuge Mingyue’s expression became stern, and she said, “Are you joking? Your complexion is pale, and your aura is weak. How is that fine?”

Then, she called out, “Senior brothers and sisters, our little junior brother is back.”

Immediately, several powerful auras rose from different parts of the Peerless Peak, stirring the winds and clouds.

Di Chen and the others descended from the sky and appeared in front of Chen Fan.

“Little Junior Brother, you were gone for more than ten years. Where were you? And what is this about? Why are you so heavily injured? Tell me, who did this to you?” Di Chen’s anger flared the moment he saw Chen Fan’s condition.

The past decade saw Di Chen’s cultivation rise to the peak of the Manifestation realm.

The faint law fluctuations around him showed he had grasped its mysteries, placing him firmly at the very top of his realm.

Chen Fan had been gone for fifteen years. Though a fleeting moment to martial artists, seeing him return injured ignited their fury—they immediately assumed he had been bullied.

Although the Peerless Peak had few people, they were all incredibly united.

Bullying someone from the Peerless Peak was the same as making enemies out of the entire Peerless Peak. Who did not know that the Peerless Peak was the most protective of their own?

Someone actually dared to bully Chen Fan—an insult to Peerless Peak itself!

“That’s right, Little Junior Brother, tell us. Who hurt you? They dared to bully our people. They’re courting death!” Yan Weiyi’s killing intent rose to the sky. Walking the path of slaughter, his murderous aura was terrifying.

“It seems like the people outside have forgotten our Peerless Peak’s reputation after our years of dormancy,” said the third senior sister, Duanmu Lingxing, icily.

Chen Fan felt very touched—this was home. Though not related by blood, the bond he shared with them felt almost like family.

Chen Fan smiled and said, “Senior Brothers and Sisters, don’t be like this. I wasn’t bullied. While returning from the Myriad Demon Islands, I snatched a Herbaceous Water Spirit from a group in the Dead Region. A peak Manifestation realm expert chased me for three days and nights—I overexerted myself, that’s all. These are just superficial wounds.”

The explanation shocked Di Chen and the others.

“What? Little Junior Brother, what did you say? You went to the Myriad Demon Islands? You even went to the Dead Region and snatched an Herbaceous Water Spirit? This... This...” Jian Qi’s eyes went wide, his jaw falling to the floor. He looked at Chen Fan as if seeing a monster.

He still remembered fetching Chen Fan from True Martial City when he first joined the academy. Chen Fan had only been in the Divine Nascent realm and was bullied by the Law Enforcement Hall’s people.

Only twenty to thirty years had passed since then, and Chen Fan had already grown to this extent, doing things that shocked even him.

Going to the Myriad Demon Islands was one thing, but stealing a Herbaceous Water Spirit from someone in the Dead Region and surviving a three-day chase? If word got out, the entire eastern continent would be shaken.

They were all experienced and knowledgeable people and knew the Herbaceous Water Spirit’s value.

Chen Fan must have snatched food from the mouths of a bunch of tigers at the high-level Manifestation realm, even succeeding in his endeavor. Not only that, he also escaped from the hands of a peak Manifestation realm expert. Unbelievable!

Jian Qi knew he couldn’t have pulled off such a feat. Only now did he realize he could no longer see through Chen Fan’s cultivation.

Fifteen years ago, his cultivation had been a head above Chen Fan’s during the True Martial Assembly.

His cultivation improved by leaps and bounds in the last decade, breaking into the first-level Manifestation realm, a genius among geniuses. But next to Chen Fan, that title felt unearned.

His improvement was fast, but Chen Fan’s was monstrous.

Di Chen, with his sharp gaze, instantly saw through Chen Fan’s cultivation. A brilliant light flashed across his eyes, genuinely happy for him.

“Haha, good, very good, Little Junior Brother. You hadn’t brought shame to our Peerless Peak. In just fifteen years, you’ve broken through to the fifth-level Manifestation realm. Great, this is really great. Now, tell us—what incredible things have you been up to all these years?”

They were all peerless geniuses, strong enough to dominate their generation—otherwise, they wouldn't have qualified for Peerless Peak.

Over the past decade or so, they had all improved significantly, far surpassing their peers and fully unleashing their potential. However, their improvement simply could not be compared to Chen Fan’s.

Immediately, Zhuge Mingyue and the others stared at Chen Fan with burning gazes, their gazes burning with curiosity. How had his cultivation advanced so drastically in such a short time?

It could be said that across the entire Peerless Peak, Chen Fan was only weaker than Huang Wuji, Di Chen, and Duanmu Lingxing, given his current strength.

His rise was so rapid that they struggled to process it.

After all, when Chen Fan first joined their school, most of them had already neared or broken into the Manifestation realm. Yet, in just two or three decades, he had not only caught up but even surpassed them.

Although he spoke of escaping a peak Manifestation realm expert for three days and nights very casually, they could imagine the sheer terror of such a pursuit.

Let alone anything else, at the very least, they could not achieve this. Chen Fan’s strength had reached an unfathomable level.

Seeing their eager expressions, he nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll summarize. I went to the Myriad Demon Islands because I took on a mission from the Merit Hall...”

With that, he gave them a brief account of his journey—the mission’s origin, the dangers he faced, and his ascent to the peak of the demonic mountain.

The retelling made Di Chen and the others exclaim in shock repeatedly.

He finished the story by telling them about what happened in the Dead Region and being hunted by Zhu Tianzong before successfully escaping back to the academy.

“You’re too awesome, Little Junior Brother. My god, after hearing your story, I, too, worship you a little now!” Zhu Yue immediately exclaimed in astonishment.

What was a legend? Chen Fan’s experiences over the past decade were.

“Little Junior Brother, how truly unexpected. You obtained the demonic mountain’s legacy! Haha, I wonder how those at the mountain’s peak would react if they found out your identity.” Fourth senior brother Yan Weiyi laughed.

“I never thought you would become this strong, surpassing the few of us.” Zhuge Mingyue smiled.

“Good going, Little Junior Brother.” Duanmu Lingxing also smiled.

“Hahahaha, good. As expected of my Little Junior Brother, as expected of a disciple from our Peerless Peak. You carry the spirit of our lineage.” Di Chen laughed out loud.

The people of the Peerless Peak were full of smiles. This little junior brother of theirs was really shocking.
