"He is the Dean of Cang Long Academy!"
Long Yi said solemnly, "His strength should not be underestimated. He is by no means an insignificant figure!"
Lu Fan's brows furrowed slightly. Even the instructors of Cang Long Academy had reached the Battle Emperor level. The Dean was likely even more terrifying. This meant that they were in for big trouble today.
"Long Yi, you've finally arrived!"
The old man with the cane looked at Long Yi, a faint cold glint in his eyes. "You are the most talented disciple of Cang Long Academy. I never expected you to betray me!"
"I'm just being myself!"
Long Yi shrugged. "Dean, you came in person. You're not here for me, are you?"
"Of course not for you!"
The Cang Long Dean sneered, "You're not qualified for that!"
As his words fell, the Cang Long Dean's gaze shifted to the Tai Xu Sword in Lu Fan's hand. "As expected, a good item! It truly lives up to its ancient reputation!"
"It is indeed a good item, but unfortunately, it's not yours!"
Lu Fan said coldly, "You've come to prevent the birth of the Dragon Dynasty, but isn't this a bit excessive?"
"You brat, you sure have a sharp tongue. Unfortunately, all of that will turn into nothingness in the face of true power!"
The Cang Long Dean said coldly, "The people of the ancient Lu clan are absolutely not allowed to survive in this world!"
As he spoke, figures soared into the sky, radiating immense brilliance. These were all instructors from Cang Long Academy, their strength unfathomable, having reached the Battle Emperor realm. Their personal intervention would surely be a thunderous blow.
"Your Majesty, be careful!"
The elders shouted, their voices filled with concern. Cang Long Academy was teeming with experts, all of them Battle Emperors. If they attacked together, how could Lu Fan possibly resist?
Sensing the presence of so many figures, Lu Fan's eyes turned cold. Cang Long Academy harbored a deep-seated hatred for him. Now that his enemies were before him, he would not show any mercy.
"We will lend Your Majesty a hand!"
The elders spoke in unison, stepping forward and engaging the Cang Long Academy instructors. With the continuous bolstering of national destiny, the elders' actual combat power had reached an extremely high level. Although there was still a gap compared to Battle Emperors, they could still contend.
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight instructors were intercepted. More than ten other figures charged towards Lu Fan, disregarding everything, leaving no blade of grass standing in their wake.
The experts of the Dragon Kingdom wanted to join the fray, but they found that in the face of such overwhelming power, numbers were useless. They could only watch helplessly, unable to offer any assistance.
The citizens of the Dragon Capital prayed in their hearts, hoping that Lu Fan would be safe. In their eyes, Lu Fan had sacrificed too much for the Dragon Kingdom. If anything were to happen to him, their hearts would be unable to bear it.
Seeing more than ten Battle Emperors surging towards him, Lu Fan gripped the Tai Xu Sword and charged into the sky. Wherever the Tai Xu Sword passed, sword intent followed.
"So strong!"
The instructors were astonished. They had initially thought Lu Fan was all show, but now it seemed that was not the case. Such a formidable aura made them quite wary.
However, the Dean had given orders, and they dared not disobey. They could only brace themselves and charge headlong at Lu Fan.
"Tai Xu Sword Intent!"
Lu Fan shouted, and as he moved, sword intent surged. In that instant, powerful sword intent permeated the entire Dragon Capital, causing it to tremble.
The Cang Long Dean stood on the high platform, observing the scene with a hint of delight. "Is this the Tai Xu Sword? It truly hasn't disappointed!"
In the next moment, several instructors from Cang Long Academy perished, unable to withstand the formidable sword intent of Lu Fan's Tai Xu Sword.
"Your Majesty will win!"
"Your Majesty will win!"
In an instant, the people of the Dragon Capital shouted, their voices filled with immense joy. As long as Lu Fan stood firm, the dynasty could endure, and the people could live the lives they desired, free from the ravages of war.
The cheers grew louder and more resonant. Lu Fan felt the power of national destiny growing stronger, even giving him the illusion that within the Dragon Capital, no one could match him.
"At such a young age, to achieve such a feat, you are truly worthy of being a member of the Lu clan!"
The Cang Long Dean sneered. "It's a pity you will perish here today. Truly, heaven envies talent!"
"Years ago, my Lu family was annihilated, and it was due to Cang Long Academy. You cannot escape responsibility!"
Lu Fan, holding the Tai Xu Sword, glared at the Cang Long Dean. "Let's settle this today!"
"You are too naive!"
The Cang Long Dean shook his head and stomped his cane on the ground. A powerful force surged towards Lu Fan. Lu Fan drew the Tai Xu Sword and met the attack with all his might, but he was sent flying backward. In the face of true power, everything else became void.
Witnessing this scene, the elders' expressions changed drastically. They knew Lu Fan's strength intimately, but they never imagined that Lu Fan couldn't even withstand a single blow from the Cang Long Dean.
"Xiao Fan!"
Lin Ke came to his side, her eyes filled with worry. She knew Lu Fan's strength very well. Now that Lu Fan had been repelled, it was enough to prove the Cang Long Dean's power. No one present could match him.
"I'm fine!"
Lu Fan wiped the blood from his lips, his brow furrowed. Even he hadn't expected the Cang Long Dean to be so formidable, catching him off guard.
"Hand over the Tai Xu Sword and the Han Bing Sword, then commit suicide as an apology!"
The Cang Long Dean smiled. "Perhaps then I can spare them!"
"Cang Long Academy has always been ruthless. Do you think they would do such a thing?" Lu Fan scoffed. "You just want me to yield, but that will never happen!"
"I didn't expect you to be so astute, brat!"
The Cang Long Dean burst into laughter. "But what does it matter? With your strength, you are no match for me. It's like a moth flying into a flame!"
Lu Fan paid no heed to these words. Holding the Tai Xu Sword, he wanted to take a gamble, as this was their only hope.
"I'll go with you!"
Lin Ke held the Han Bing Sword. "If we can't win, we'll die for the dynasty together!"
"Xiao Ke..."
Lu Fan's expression turned solemn. He knew very well how powerful the Cang Long Dean was. If Lin Ke were to participate, her life would be in grave danger.
Lin Ke's expression was serious, and she took Lu Fan's hand. "Last time in Cang Qiong Country, we still managed to survive. It will be no different this time!"
Lu Fan nodded solemnly, gripping the Tai Xu Sword and transforming into a soaring dragon, charging directly into the sky. Instantly, the heavens and earth changed color, and the entire Dragon Capital was filled with the Tai Xu Sword Intent, inspiring awe.
Lin Ke also leaped into the air, the Han Bing Sword in her hand emitting a dazzling radiance.
Witnessing this scene, the Cang Long Dean was moved. He had heard long ago that the five ancient clans possessed five divine swords, and when combined, they would possess immense power. These two divine swords alone possessed the ability to change the world. If all five divine swords were gathered, they would wield terrifying means, making them impossible to guard against.
