"So you're afraid of me. I didn't expect a dignified Emperor-level expert to be afraid of me!" Lu Fan laughed heartily. "Unfortunately, you're only a Half-Emperor. If you were a true Emperor, you might have been able to kill me!"
"What if I'm only a Half-Emperor? I think it's more than enough!"
The Chen family head sneered, "You're just a Great Sage. Can you really be stronger than me, a Half-Emperor?"
"Perhaps not stronger, but you won't find it easy to capture me!" Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, a sharp glint within them.
"I've met arrogant people in my life, but I've never met someone as arrogant as you!"
The Chen family head chuckled coldly, "You truly surprise me. For someone your age to reach the Great Sage realm is already quite difficult, and now you've achieved such a feat!"
"Actually, I don't want to be your enemy. It's just that your Chen family doesn't seem to think so!" Su Dan Novel Network
Lu Fan shrugged. "Since that's the case, there's only one way: a battle. Only through battle can we settle this!"
"A battle?"
The Chen family head burst into laughter. "Are you out of your mind, boy? You want to fight me? What qualifications do you have?"
"Whether I have the qualifications or not isn't up to you!" Lu Fan said coldly. "Although you are a Half-Emperor expert, I still want to try!"
At these words, the Chen family head's expression changed, a flicker of anger crossing his face. He never imagined Lu Fan would be so arrogant, not even taking him seriously, despite being an Emperor-level expert.
With this thought, the Chen family head didn't hesitate. His aura surged, a powerful pressure crushing towards Lu Fan, accompanied by an overwhelming presence.
Seeing this, Lu Fan's brow furrowed slightly, and he retreated. He knew very well that his earlier bravado was just talk. If he truly fought such a powerful expert, he would likely meet a terrible end.
With this realization, Lu Fan didn't hesitate. He mounted his Heavenly Steed and fled in another direction. The Chen family head had already sealed off the area around Xuandi City, making it unlikely for Lu Fan to return. Therefore, he had to leave now.
"Trying to escape!"
The Chen family head sneered, "Do you think you can escape my grasp with the Heavenly Steed?"
"Why not?"
Lu Fan let out a cold smile. "Even if you have heaven-defying abilities, you might not be able to catch me. If you don't believe me, feel free to try!"
"Insolent fool!"
With a cold glint in his eyes, the Chen family head leaped up and pursued Lu Fan. Lu Fan's utter disregard for his power annoyed him greatly. In his eyes, Lu Fan was nothing more than a plaything.
In the blink of an eye, the two figures vanished. Chen Jianbei and the others wanted to pursue but found no opportunity, feeling a sense of helplessness. "I originally wanted to watch this kid die a tragic death, but he escaped so quickly. I wonder if my father can kill him!"
"You underestimate your father!" The Second Master Chen said coldly. "He is a Half-Emperor expert. ordinary Great Sage experts are nothing in his eyes. As long as he wishes, that kid is as good as dead!"
"With your words, Uncle, I feel reassured!"
Chen Jianbei nodded, his gaze becoming more serious. At this point, things had reached a stage where it should be beneficial for their Chen family.
As long as Lu Fan died, their Chen family would not have to worry so much, and they could consolidate their position. More importantly, they could avenge their previous humiliation, which brought them great joy.
"There's something I'm not sure if I should say!" The Second Master Chen spoke up. "In the future, within Xuandi City, I think you should still keep a low profile. After all, in recent years, there have been exceptionally talented powerhouses among the ascenders. Offending them is not a good thing!"
"Uncle, those are just lowly ascenders. Are you afraid of them?" Chen Jianbei disagreed, speaking his mind without any reservation.
"I'm not afraid of them, but I believe they will become powerhouses in the future, possibly even surpassing our entire Chen family." The Second Master Chen stated frankly. "The reason I say this is to make you understand that some things should not be done this way!"
Facing these words, Chen Jianbei nodded solemnly, his gaze earnest. He naturally kept the Second Master Chen's words in mind. However, in his opinion, those who ascended from the lower realms were still lowly, with no difference.
At the same time, Lu Fan, riding the Heavenly Steed, arrived in a forest. In this forest, Lu Fan suddenly stopped. He looked back at the Chen family head and smiled, "I'm truly sorry, but you've been tricked!"
"Tricked?" The Chen family head laughed heartily. "Boy, do you really think you can escape my grasp?"
"That's right!"
Lu Fan said coldly, "What I want to do, I can do. So you should reflect on yourself!"
"What do you mean by that?" The Chen family head narrowed his eyes. "I don't quite understand."
"My true body is not here. What you are chasing is just an illusion. This means I am already a hundred thousand miles away, and you can never kill me!" Lu Fan said coldly.
"That's utter nonsense. Do you think I'll believe your lies?" The Chen family head sneered, completely disbelieving him. At least, in his opinion, Lu Fan's words were clearly meant to deceive him.
"Whether you believe it or not doesn't matter. What matters is that you can't kill me today!" Lu Fan shrugged slightly, a smile on his face.
"In that case, I'd like to see what you've got, boy!"
The Chen family head lunged at Lu Fan without hesitation, his movements appearing exceptionally terrifying. However, in that instant, Lu Fan's figure exploded backward, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
"Still claiming that's not your true body!" The Chen family head laughed heartily. "I was almost tricked by you."
"Do you know about 'One Qi Transforms Three Pure Ones'?"
Lu Fan shrugged slightly. "I can manifest three true bodies. Even if you kill one, I can still survive safely!"
"One Qi Transforms Three Pure Ones!"
The Chen family head's expression instantly turned grim. Even he was unaware of such a divine technique existing in the world. If this were true, it would be a terrible omen for their entire Chen family, potentially bringing endless disaster.
"You can't kill me today, but when I grow stronger and return, I will make the Chen family pay the price!" Lu Fan said coldly. "And I mean it!"
The Chen family head's face turned ashen. He took a few steps back, his expression looking extremely unpleasant. If they let Lu Fan go, their Chen family would never know peace.
