He looked at the big yellow dog with gentle eyes instead.
"Ah Huang."
He blurted out the name.
"Roar... Woof?"
The moment it heard the name.
The fierce big yellow dog's gaze froze.
However, it maintained a vigilant combat stance.
It eyed Ling Fan suspiciously.
The fur on its neck remained bristled.
Ling Fan seemed unconcerned about his own life.
He continued to walk towards the big yellow dog.
Soon.
Ling Fan reached the big yellow dog.
Standing before the big yellow dog, he was like a small mouse, only as tall as the dog's paw.
The big yellow dog lowered its head, its massive head coming closer, sniffing Ling Fan all over.
Following that.
The big yellow dog's body began to tremble.
Its eyes changed.
The fur on its neck, which had been bristled, retracted unconsciously.
Its two eyes were fixed on Ling Fan, as if another figure was gradually overlapping with the person before it.
"Woof woof woof!"
The big yellow dog's body rapidly shrank, quickly reducing to the size of a normal village dog. It began to nuzzle affectionately against Ling Fan's leg.
It was as joyous as an ordinary village dog that had found its owner.
This scene stunned the Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower, the Old Ancestor of the You family, Song Tiandi, and others.
What in the world was going on!
Wasn't that stray dog supposed to be unapproachable, attacking anyone who dared to get close?
Could it be that this young man had a deep connection with this imperial palace?
The Old Ancestor of the Wu family struggled to support himself.
He also saw this scene.
Suddenly, a flash of insight struck his mind.
His entire body began to tremble.
"I remember this dog was that person's pet. It only obeyed that person. Besides him, this dog bit anyone it encountered... Could it be... could it be..."
The Old Ancestor of the Wu family trembled more and more violently.
On the other side.
The Old Ancestor of the You family also seemed to recall something.
His eyes widened in horror, staring fixedly at Ling Fan's back.
"What's wrong with you!"
The Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower asked with a frown.
"He, he, he he he!"
The Old Ancestor of the You family suddenly began to stutter in inexplicable terror.
"Could it be him, has that person returned!"
The Old Ancestor of the You family stammered for a moment, then finally blurted out the sentence that had been stuck in his throat.
This sentence.
It was like a thunderclap!
The Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower shuddered violently, his pupils constricting.
Song Tiandi, upon realizing, also turned pale, his body trembling as if with a chill.
"I'm leaving, I'm not playing anymore, I don't want the treasures in the palace..."
Ultimately, fear overcame greed.
The Old Ancestor of the You family fled backward without hesitation.
Without any lingering attachment.
But before he could escape the plaza in front of the palace.
Suddenly, countless profound runes flashed, and an invisible barrier, like an overturned bowl, descended.
The Old Ancestor of the You family crashed headlong into this invisible barrier.
Not only did he not break through.
He was instead dazed and fell to the ground with a thud.
"The palace, the palace, the palace has come alive! The palace has revived, it must be him who has returned, only he can control this palace! It's over, we're finished!"
The Old Ancestor of the You family cried out incoherently.
As if he had been scared into madness.
The Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower frowned deeply.
He looked warily at Ling Fan, who was petting the dog.
"You, who are you, human or ghost!"
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and spoke with difficulty.
"Me? Haven't you already guessed my identity? I am the person you've been talking about. You've all barged into my palace, do you still need to ask my identity?"
Ling Fan grinned.
But his smile was incredibly cold.
"Ah Huang, I've troubled you. I originally kept you on a chain because I was afraid you'd cause trouble outside. I'll untie you now."
Ling Fan made a casual gesture. The dog collar and chain, along with the countless runes on them, flashed intensely. Soon.
With clanging sounds, the dog collar and thick iron chain around the big yellow dog's neck fell heavily to the ground.
"Ah Huang, go, tear apart that pile of bones for me!"
Ling Fan patted the big yellow dog's head.
"Woof woof woof!"
The big yellow dog excitedly stuck out its tongue and barked incessantly.
As it charged out like a golden lightning bolt, its body also grew in the wind, becoming even more robust and mighty, like a small mountain. The terrifying pressure of a half-step Emperor Sovereign vastness pressed down, fiercely colliding with the white bone great sovereign.
As for Ling Fan.
He turned towards the Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower, Song Tiandi, the Old Ancestor of the You family, and the others.
"You are truly that person!"
The Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower's face showed a somewhat perverse smile.
A wild ambition in his heart swelled like a mountain fire, gradually overcoming his fear of that person.
His body trembled slightly with excitement, his eyes fixed on Ling Fan.
"Haha, good! Good! Excellent! You're not dead, that's great! I understand, I finally understand. The wanted criminal that caused such a stir before must have been you. You've returned from the lower realm! Who would have thought that the person who was annihilated by the combined forces of the ten Heavenly Venerates would return, hahaha, my luck is too good! You only have the strength of an eighth-tier Heavenly Emperor now. If I can kill you, I will become famous throughout the myriad worlds! This Crown Prince will ascend to the heavens in one step!"
"Ling Qingyun, you are my stepping stone!"
The Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower finally uttered the name that had once made the ten Heavenly Realms bow their heads, a name that had now become taboo.
Boom!
A powerful ninth-tier Heavenly Emperor pressure erupted from the Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower.
At the same time, countless weapons on his body began to hum, instantly transforming into a terrifying torrent of weapons, rolling towards Ling Fan.
"This is the first time since I returned to the Central Heavenly Realm that I've heard this name spoken by someone else."
Ling Fan seemed not to notice the approaching danger.
He casually raised his eyelids.
"Since you know my name, it would be enough to not offer your head for slaughter. Yet you dare to challenge me?"
Ling Fan sneered.
If it were anywhere else, it would be different.
He could not deal with someone as outstanding as the Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower among the ninth-tier Heavenly Emperors.
But this was his palace!
This was his home turf!
Ling Fan waved his hand in response.
Instantly, a world-shaking Extreme Emperor Array fluctuation erupted.
With Ling Fan's wave, a power that could make even peak ninth-tier Heavenly Emperors tremble fiercely collided with the Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower's attack.
In less than a tenth of an incense stick's time.
The torrent of weapons unleashed by the Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower shattered and rolled back.
The Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower's body was also thrown backward like a tattered sack.
"You're cheating! Don't use the power of this place! Fight me fairly!" the Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower roared madly.
Ling Fan ignored him.
Endless Emperor Array light surged.
It transformed into a meticulously detailed giant hand, pressing down towards the Crown Prince of Divine Artifact Tower.
"Die for me!"
Just then.
