Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City-Chapter 1288 - 1286: Zhu Qilue, Make Your Move!

Lin Fan and Zhu Qilue are in the midst of a skirmish.

Although it’s called a skirmish, only Lin Fan is actively attacking. Zhu Qilue, with his hands casually behind his back, deftly dodges every attack from Lin Fan and easily defuses every danger.

It’s as if he’s playing with a three-year-old, not taking it seriously at all.

Lin Fan, however, hasn’t given up. The Xuanyuan Sword glides like a dragon, each time almost touching Zhu Qilue, yet always falling just short.

"Your sword is too slow."

After sidestepping Lin Fan’s thrust, Zhu Qilue said with an immensely smug smile.

However.

He suddenly noticed that Lin Fan had halted his movements, his eyes grave, brows furrowed, gazing out towards the crowd.

Lin Fan abruptly stopped attacking!

Zhu Qilue was taken aback, unaware of what Lin Fan was looking at, so he followed Lin Fan’s gaze but saw nothing.

"What are you looking at?" he asked curiously.

"Did you hear it?" Lin Fan, rather than answering, asked an inexplicable question.

"Hear what?"

"The sound."

"What sound?"

Zhu Qilue was completely bewildered, not knowing what Lin Fan was up to, nor understanding what he was talking about. Was he trying to evade the duel? He wouldn’t let him go so easily, especially after being humiliated in the Xuan Clan military camp, he had to turn the tables.

Moreover.

He wanted to bring Lin Fan to the Five Elements Realm, sensing that this kid might change his status, freeing him from being a waste in the Five Elements Realm.

Thus.

He absolutely wouldn’t let Lin Fan leave.

After venting his anger, he intended to take Lin Fan to the Five Elements Realm and naturally would not harm Lin Fan’s life, unless he wanted to go.

Zhu Qilue pondered Lin Fan’s thoughts, watching Lin Fan’s tense expression without any emotion on his face.

Indeed.

Lin Fan kept silent, turned his head, and wanted to walk out.

Zhu Qilue’s eyes widened, his figure darted forward, appearing before Lin Fan in a split second, blocking his path.

"Where are you going?"

"It’s none of your business, move aside."

Lin Fan’s eyes flared with anger and urgency, gazing tensely beyond Zhu Qilue’s body towards the crowd, trying to step sideways to bypass Zhu Qilue.

But Zhu Qilue naturally wouldn’t let Lin Fan leave easily.

He was from the Five Elements Realm! Allowing a waste from the Sumeru Continent to slip away, where would his reputation go?

"You can’t leave."

"I have something very important to do right now, I must go check it out, so please step aside."

Fury radiated from Lin Fan’s eyes, and his entire demeanor transformed instantly, emanating a wild, rampant power. The Xuanyuan Sword in his hand glinted with dazzling golden light.

Zhu Qilue raised an eyebrow.

Wow! So, this guy was hiding something, not using his full strength earlier. Or perhaps, the anger stirred him up, making him entirely different from before.

Zhu Qilue became excited, his blood boiled.

"Lin Fan, I didn’t expect you to conceal so much strength, you’re far more competent than I thought. It seems that injuring me in the Xuan Clan military camp three days ago wasn’t a fluke, but rather demonstrated your true ability. Yet your previous performance truly disappointed me, which is why I hadn’t made a move, wanting to anger you thoroughly. Didn’t expect you to burst out now..."

As Zhu Qilue spoke, he glanced back at the crowd and sneered.

"Although I don’t know what has made you so furious, things are about to get interesting."

"I said make way!"

Lin Fan looked disgruntled, Zhu Qilue’s rambling words had already wasted a lot of his time.

Just now.

He seemed to have heard Mo Ningxiang’s voice!

Initially, Lin Fan thought he was hallucinating, as Mo Ningxiang should be in the Xuan Clan Main City, waiting for his news, how could she be here?

However, as a few roars reached his ears from beyond the crowd, even though they were faint, Lin Fan instantly recognized the voice belonged to none other than Mo Ningxiang!

Moreover, it seemed like Feng Qingshui’s voice was also there.

His body trembled abruptly, instantly a bad premonition rose in his heart.

Mo Ningxiang was in danger!

Thus, despite being engaged in a duel with Zhu Qilue, he rushed toward the crowd without hesitation, eager to discover the truth.

Yet it seemed Zhu Qilue had no intention of letting him go.

If that was the case, he’d have to get serious.

"Move aside."

Lin Fan gritted his teeth, spitting out two words, ferocious and sinister. He seemed like a different person, the air around him whipped into fierce gusts, pushing outward in waves.

Zhu Qilue stood calm with a smile, his hands behind his back, still not showing any intention to step aside.

Suddenly!

Another familiar voice pierced Lin Fan’s ear, and now he was one hundred percent sure, Mo Ningxiang was indeed here, and she was in danger!

Yet in front of him lay an unsolvable obstacle.

"What exactly are you trying to do?" Zhu Qilue inquired leisurely from curiosity.

"Rescue someone," Lin Fan replied angrily with two words.

He thought, if he wasn’t a match for Zhu Qilue, he might as well speak the truth, maybe the opponent would let him leave.

After all, lives were at stake.

"Rescue someone? Besides your own life, who else here needs saving?" Zhu Qilue taunted.

However, Lin Fan’s face did not show any smile, instead it revealed hatred.

"You better step aside, or I’ll be rude to you!"

"Alright, I’d like to see what you’re capable of, to dare challenge me. Do you know once I make my move, you’ll be begging on the ground? Are you sure you want me to act?" Zhu Qilue asked arrogantly.

If not for his extreme confidence in his own skills, he wouldn’t have made such a statement. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

And truthfully.

Zhu Qilue didn’t regard the Sumeru Continent at all, nor did he see Lin Fan as noteworthy. He merely appreciated Lin Fan slightly; even if Lin Fan were stronger, he wouldn’t escape the fate of being an ant.

The atmosphere instantly thickened, everyone held their breath, watching the two intently, whispering among themselves.

"Finally it’s happening, the real duel!"

"Humph, Lin Fan is simply overestimating himself, daring to force Zhu Qilue to act, he’s courting death."

"It’s my first time seeing someone from the Five Elements Realm act, so exciting!"

"Exciting? Just don’t wet your pants later."

"Lin Fan is destined to lose."

Everyone’s breath seemed to pause, quietly watching the two in the center, ready to witness the upcoming battle.

Zhu Qilue’s lips curled into a slight smile as he extended a hand, suddenly opening his palm.

Boom!

Flames burst forth from his palm, burning brighter and higher.

He then gently clenched his fist, extinguishing the flames, while his body was immediately enveloped in fire, the scorching heat forced Lin Fan back several steps.

"It’s fine to want to rescue someone, just beat me and you can do whatever you wish! But you probably won’t have that chance, because defeating me is impossible."

As his words fell.

The flames rose higher, forming a wall in front of Lin Fan, completely blocking his path.

The crowd also felt the heat waves, their bodies seeming like they were being roasted, and they retreated further back, expanding the space in front, fearing Zhu Qilue’s flames would ignite them.

This was no joke, once the Five Elements Realm’s fire scorched you, death was the only path!
