Let alone enemies like the Heavenly Arrogant Saint King and the Heavenly Eagle Saint Demon King.
Even the three old ancestors of the Zhou family, Patriarch Zhou Fusheng, and all other Zhou family powerhouses, the descendants of the Ten Great Saint Generals, were all stunned, their jaws dropping.
Instantly obliterated two Saint Kings?
What kind of concept was this?
This strength could already be considered the number one person in the entire Jiuhua Realm.
Who else could compare?
They had previously thought this arrogant young man was an ignorant brat who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. The moment he entered the Zhou family ancestral land, he dared to challenge the then-dominant Xiahou family. Now, they realized he was right.
Even if the Xiahou family was powerful, even if they had a Saint King ancestor guarding them.
What were they in front of him?
Moreover, these traitors of the Xiahou family had done something so outrageous that it offended gods and men alike, something that heaven, earth, ghosts, and gods could not tolerate!
Now they finally understood why the three Saint King ancestors, upon appearing, not only did not punish him for disrespecting the ancestral Emperor's statue but instead knelt and paid him great respect.
This person's abilities were simply unfathomable.
"What do you say now? Even with the traitor Xiahou Canghai, you only have three Saint Kings."
Ling Fan sneered coldly.
The Heavenly Arrogant Saint King gritted his teeth and said, "Kid, don't celebrate too early. There are still five Saint Kings from the Heavenly Demon Realm in the Jiuhua Realm's Sacred River. As soon as they are free, they will ensure you have no place to be buried."
The Heavenly Arrogant Saint King's words reminded all the allied forces' powerhouses.
That's right.
Although they had lost two Saint Kings, which was a heavy blow.
It was not fatal.
It did not strike at their core.
With three Saint Kings here, plus the five Saint Kings from the Heavenly Demon Realm who were suppressing and refining that Emperor Sword in the Jiuhua Realm's Sacred River, they still had a total of eight Saint Kings, maintaining an overwhelming advantage against the Zhou family's camp.
Thinking of this.
They all felt relieved.
On the other hand, for the Zhou family.
The glimmer of hope that had just arisen.
Was immediately crushed, and their morale plummeted.
However, Ling Fan smiled playfully and said, "Are you sure the five Saint Kings in the Jiuhua Realm's Sacred River are still alive?"
Ling Fan's words made the Heavenly Arrogant Saint King, the Heavenly Eagle Saint Demon King, and Xiahou Canghai's hearts sink, as if they had realized something extremely serious.
"He… he seemed to have torn through the Jiuhua Realm's Sacred River to get here!"
The Heavenly Arrogant Saint King recalled, and his eyes widened, a hint of unease growing in his gaze.
This feeling of panic was something he hadn't experienced for a very, very long time since he ascended to the Saint King realm.
"Horned King, Black Hand King… Respond!"
The Heavenly Arrogant Saint King thought more and more that something was wrong.
A massive Saint Dao, like a dragon soaring through the heavens, tore through the void and entered the Jiuhua Realm's Sacred River. His Saint Sense extended into it, attempting to contact the five Saint Kings at the source of the Jiuhua Realm's Sacred River.
However, the moment his Saint Sense reached the source of the Jiuhua Realm's Sacred River.
His heart stopped!
"What… Where is Black Hand King, where is Horned King, where is Heart Demon King…"
The source of the Jiuhua Realm's Sacred River.
The five colossal figures that had previously occupied this place, like mountains, had vanished without a trace.
A faint smell of blood still lingered in the air.
Indicating that a fierce battle had once taken place here.
"Those were five Saint Kings! Could they all be dead? Could the fluctuations we felt just now not be them suppressing the Emperor Sword Yun Longyin, but something else!"
The Heavenly Arrogant Saint King's heart trembled.
Five Saint Kings.
Each one was a top-tier powerhouse. Even if weaker than him, they were not much weaker. Among them, like the Black Hand King of the Thousand-Handed Buddha Demon clan, his strength was even greater than his.
It was precisely because of their immense strength that they were sent to continue suppressing and refining the Emperor Sword.
But now…
They were gone.
Simply vanished into thin air.
The Heavenly Arrogant Saint King slowly turned his gaze to Ling Fan.
The profound, faint smile on Ling Fan's face caused his inner unease to expand infinitely.
"You… you… Where are Black Hand King, Heart Demon King, and the others? Are they related to you!"
"You already have the answer in your heart, why ask such a question? I have refined all five of them." Ling Fan's faint words echoed.
Instantly.
A single stone stirred a thousand waves.
The entire venue erupted in an uproar.
This was even more shocking than when Ling Fan had instantly obliterated two Saint Kings earlier.
Because compared to those five top Saint Kings.
The slain Yan Ke Demon King and Demon Eye King were nothing.
That was the most powerful force the Heavenly Demon Realm had left in the Jiuhua Realm.
And now, Ling Fan had wiped them all out in one fell swoop!
The three Zhou family ancestors showed expressions of immense shock and said incredulously, "Saint Ling actually directly entered the Jiuhua Realm's Sacred River and refined five Saint Kings! My heavens, what kind of strength is this? I have never seen such a heaven-defying prodigy in my life! Truly worthy of being related to that person, one cannot use common sense to deduce his abilities."
"I don't believe it! Black Hand King, Heart Demon King, they would never die! Don't spread rumors here, what are you, how can you kill them?"
The Heavenly Arrogant Saint King seemed somewhat frenzied.
Xiahou Canghai, however, had a flickering gaze, already contemplating retreat.
He was a fence-sitter.
Best at judging the situation.
Whichever side had the stronger momentum, he would lean towards them.
He furtively extended his hand and swept it.
He gathered all the Xiahou family powerhouses under his command, thus maintaining control at all times, whether to surrender or escape, he could decide at any moment.
Ling Fan acted as if he hadn't seen it, letting Xiahou Canghai make these small movements.
The Heavenly Eagle Saint Demon King also began to waver.
Its strength was at most comparable to Yan Ke Demon King, even slightly weaker.
After all, it was just a native demon saint of the Jiuhua Realm. Although it had also reached the Saint King level, it was among the weakest Saint Kings. It regretted entering this mess.
"Heavenly Eagle, Xiahou Canghai, what are you doing!"
The Heavenly Arrogant Saint King roared when he saw these two Saint Kings showing signs of hesitation and fear.
"Brother Tian Ao, you worry too much. This person is truly too terrifying. At this point, we have no other choice but to fight alongside you. We are willing to join forces with Brother Tian Ao!"
"Good, kill! I don't believe this kid is really that strong."
The Heavenly Arrogant Saint King grabbed a top-grade Saint Sword and slashed down. Immediately, a sword light, spanning a hundred thousand zhang, tore through heaven and earth, vast and mighty, descending.
"Good, let's attack together!"
The Heavenly Eagle Saint Demon King and Xiahou Canghai cheered in unison.
However, the two of them did not attack. Instead, they turned and fled.
"Brother Tian Ao, hold him off for a while, we'll go back and find a way to help you," Xiahou Canghai shouted as he fled.
"Aiya! You two cowards! Useless! Just you wait, after I deal with this kid, I will personally come to your homes and exterminate your entire clans!" The Heavenly Arrogant Saint King was so enraged he felt like his lungs would explode.
But he was now in a predicament.
It was impossible to stop.
