Destined Martial Lord

Ye Fan came in front of Jin Wudi and smiled.    

"A loss is a loss. I have nothing to say, but if you want to kill me, then do it in the next life!"    

Jin Wudi let out a cold cry, pierced the half of the long spear in his hand into his stomach, and slowly fell down.    

Ye Fan did not stop them and allowed them to choose their deaths. This was the last bit of dignity they wanted to preserve, and also the respect they had for their enemies. But Ye Fan did not let go of the enemy's corpse, and directly kept it into his own storage ring, then he chased after the direction in which the King Qinguang's allied forces were retreating.    

Very quickly, Ye Fan found the people who were still running away. The commotion from the battle outside the valley was too loud, they did not dare to turn back, or else all of Ye Fan's efforts would have been in vain.    

"Everyone, stop. Just rest here. The danger has passed!"    

Ye Fan shouted to the crowd.    

Mo Buli lifted her head and looked at Ye Fan who was flying over. Her tears could not help but gush out, and she remained silent for a long time.    

"Commander Ye, has the Duke of Qin's allied forces retreated yet?"    

Jin Liang asked excitedly.    

"Yeah, it's fine now. Everyone rest."    

Ye Fan landed in front of everyone and said with a smile.    

The King Qinguang's side erupted with cheers. The crisis had finally passed and everything was like a dream. Ye Fan was able to repel the Duke of Qin's side by himself, his strength was truly terrifying.    

If they knew that Ye Fan did not repel the Duke of Qin's army, and instead killed them all, they didn't know how to react.    

"Jin Wudi was defeated by you?"    

Mo Buli asked in a low voice. Even now, she still could not believe that all of this was real, because as an exceptional genius of the Golden Armor Sect, Jin Wudi's strength had suppressed many of his peers.    

"Yeah, he's got guts."    

Ye Fan nodded and said.    

"You're too amazing, you've really surprised me."    

Mo Buli said in a low voice, and the gaze he looked at Ye Fan with contained a hint of adoration.    

"Being able to defeat him was also a coincidence. If it really was a fair battle, then defeating him wouldn't be easy."    

Ye Fan said softly, he and Jin Wudi could not really be considered to be fighting, and he had used a large amount of corpse energy to launch a powerful attack, destroying Jin Wudi's fighting spirit, and winning in a disgraceful way.    

"Regardless of how you say it, victory is still victory. Moreover, you are fighting against an allied army by yourself. Even with the help of some external power, it is not something that anyone can accomplish."    

Mo Buli said in a serious tone.    

"Hehe, let's not talk about them anymore. Didn't you guys want to see what our mission was all along? I'll let you see it now."    

Ye Fan smiled lightly and took out all four golden treasure boxes, placing them in a row in front of everyone. Then, he opened the boxes one by one in front of everyone.    

Inside each box was a roll of sheepskin. It was part of a map, and when the four sheepskins were put together, it was exactly the same as a map.    

Then, Ye Fan read the contents of the scroll to everyone and they all came to a realization.    

"As long as we follow the directions of the map and obtain the Hegemon's Sword, our mission will be completed. Everyone should rest for the night first. Tomorrow morning, we will rush to find the Hegemon's Sword. "    

Ye Fan kept the map and scrolls, and said to everyone. These people fled after a big battle. Many of the wounded people's wounds were not properly bandaged. At this moment, blood was still dripping. Anyway, the matter had already been resolved, so there was no need to rush back.    

Everyone nodded and scattered to rest and recuperate. Finally, they were able to sleep in peace.    

On the morning of the second day, Ye Fan brought everyone to the place where the Overlord's Sword was hidden, which was marked on the map.    

The location where the Overlord's Sword was hidden was obviously very casual, it was actually on a normal hill, so everyone began to dig. Since they were from the cultivator, it wouldn't be difficult for them to flatten the hill.    

However, after an hour of digging, the hill was almost flattened. They still could not find the Hegemon's Sword, so they could not help but reveal doubtful expressions.    

Logically speaking, the Overlord's Sword should have already reached the final stage, so the burial site should not be that deep. However, right now, it seemed completely different from what it was before.    

Did someone beat him to it?    

Ye Fan could not help but be suspicious, but he immediately dismissed the thought. This hill was not very eye-catching, other than by chance, who would be digging around here?    

"Keep digging!"    

He took out the map and checked it again. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the location, Ye Fan gave the order.    

Everyone continued digging. After digging another 30 meters, a red box finally appeared before them.    

Ye Fan could not help but smile. Seems like he had guessed right, he walked forward and directly opened the red box, but everyone's face instantly changed!    

Empty!    

The box was actually empty. Perhaps it wasn't empty before, but at this moment, there was a big hole at the bottom of the box. The thing inside the box was gone!    

At the bottom of the chest, there was a large hole. It was a dark cave that seemed to have been dug by humans.    

Who had stolen the Hegemon's Sword?
