Shortly thereafter, Lu Fan and his group arrived outside the royal city.
A figure stood tall on the city wall, drawing many gazes.
Below the wall lay dozens of corpses, a grim sight. Many of the Northwest King’s formidable subordinates had met an untimely end.
“Are you the Northwest King?”
An elder in white robes looked at Lu Fan, his expression exceptionally cold.
“That’s right, I am the Northwest King!”
Lu Fan nodded and said, “May I ask who you are, sir? And why are you committing murder here!”
“Committing murder?”
The white-haired elder immediately sneered, “When you burned down the Heavenly Temple, why didn’t you say the same?”
“You are from the Heavenly God Hall?”
Lu Fan’s brow furrowed. He had not expected a Heavenly God Hall expert to arrive so quickly.
“Precisely!”
The white-haired elder nodded. “I am the White Deer Envoy of the Heavenly God Hall! The Heavenly Temple was burned down, and it was your doing. There should be no problem with that, correct?”
“Since Senior says so, it is already confirmed that this matter was done by me. Why must Senior ask the obvious!”
Lu Fan smiled faintly, his gaze even more indifferent, even though the white-haired elder appeared unusual.
“As a Heavenly God Hall envoy for so long, I have never encountered anyone as arrogant as you!”
The White Deer Envoy sneered, “You should know the consequences of offending the Heavenly God Hall!”
“The Heavenly Temple did not uphold its promises, so I fought them!”
Lu Fan shrugged and said, “Is there a problem with that?”
“The affiliated forces of the Heavenly God Hall are not to be trifled with by anyone!”
The White Deer Envoy said coldly, “Kneel and beg for forgiveness, then commit suicide, and I can consider releasing the people of the Northwest King City. Otherwise, I will let the entire city be buried with you!”
“You speak with such great authority!”
Lu Fan’s expression was cold, carrying a murderous intent.
The White Deer Envoy narrowed his eyes, his expression remaining utterly indifferent, as if in his eyes, this was not even worth considering.
In an instant, the White Deer Envoy appeared before Lu Fan. “Young man, your becoming the Northwest King was a supreme opportunity, but unfortunately, you have offended someone you shouldn’t have!”
Lu Fan shrugged slightly, then let out a cold laugh. “Although the Heavenly God Hall’s influence is vast, it cannot compare to the Heavenly Court. If you dare to lay a hand on me today, how will you explain yourself to the Heavenly Court Dynasty?”
At these words, the White Deer Envoy’s face flickered, then he burst into laughter. “Are you threatening me, boy? You should not know that even the Heavenly Court Dynasty would not dare to offend the Heavenly God Hall lightly, especially at this juncture!”
“Is that so?”
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, remaining very indifferent, but he felt a little surprised. If what the White Deer Envoy said was true, what kind of power did the Heavenly God Hall possess to exude such an aura?
“Truly speaking with such arrogance!”
Bei Cheng stepped forward, looking at the White Deer Envoy. “Where do you get the audacity to say such things!”
“Are you the Prince of Bei Cheng?”
The White Deer Envoy looked at Bei Cheng, his brow furrowing slightly.
“If the Heavenly God Hall dares to touch the Northwest King today, then the Heavenly Court will be able to destroy your Heavenly God Hall tomorrow!”
Bei Cheng’s aura was imposing. He could sense that the White Deer Envoy’s strength was not simple. All he could do now was issue threats.
“If these words were spoken by the Heavenly Emperor, perhaps our Heavenly God Hall would be a little wary!”
The White Deer Envoy smiled faintly. “However, the words of Prince Bei Cheng likely carry no weight!”
“You dare to look down on this Prince!”
Bei Cheng was furious, staring directly at the White Deer Envoy.
“I dare not, but today’s matter is not something Prince Bei Cheng can control. I hope you will be careful!”
The White Deer Envoy’s aura was imposing, carrying a hint of disdain.
“Hmph, I will stand here today, and I want to see what you can do!” Su Dan Novel Network
Bei Cheng’s momentum was fierce, and he did not back down at all.
“If that is how the Prince behaves, then do not blame me for being impolite!”
The White Deer Envoy shouted, and his figure instantly shot up into the sky. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Prince Bei Cheng was about to make a move to resist, but he was instantly blown away by a powerful wave.
Boom…
With a loud explosion, Bei Cheng’s body slammed heavily against the city wall.
“You dare to attack this Prince!”
Bei Cheng’s expression changed, but before he could finish speaking, the White Deer Envoy stepped towards Lu Fan. His goal today was Lu Fan, and he would show no mercy.
“King Master!”
Within the Northwest King City, many figures stepped out, wanting to stop the White Deer Envoy, but they were all forcefully repelled by him.
These people were insignificant in his eyes. Even a Martial Emperor expert would not be the White Deer Envoy’s match for a single move.
“Immortal Emperor Realm!”
Lu Fan was utterly shocked, his eyes changing. He had never imagined that the elder before him was an Immortal Emperor realm powerhouse.
To think that a mere envoy of the Heavenly God Hall possessed such formidable strength. What kind of person must the Heavenly God Hall Master be?
As Lu Fan hesitated, the Haotian Tower let out a long cry, protecting him, like an impregnable fortress.
Boom…
The White Deer Envoy collided with the Haotian Tower, emitting a deafening roar that shocked everyone.
The White Deer Envoy retreated a few steps, his expression filled with disbelief.
Lu Fan stood frozen, also somewhat surprised. He hadn’t expected the Haotian Tower to automatically protect him.
“It’s actually an ancient divine artifact. You are truly not simple, boy!”
The White Deer Envoy spoke, his expression serious. He knew that ancient divine artifacts possessed boundless power. With Lu Fan controlling an ancient divine artifact, even he might not be able to do anything to Lu Fan.
“You flatter me!”
Lu Fan gave an awkward smile. He had been quite scared just now. Facing an Immortal Emperor realm expert, he had no power to resist.
However, it seemed that this Haotian Tower was not simple either, possessing such a powerful aura.
“I thought you were that impressive!”
Inside the Northwest King’s mansion, everyone spoke out, with disdain, even some mockery.
The White Deer Envoy sneered, “This is an ancient divine artifact. Since it will protect its master, I cannot harm you today, but you have now forged a grudge with the Heavenly God Hall!”
After saying this, the White Deer Envoy’s figure departed, with a sense of helplessness.
Seeing this, Lu Fan finally let out a sigh of relief. Although he was invincible below the Immortal Emperor realm, when truly facing an Immortal Emperor realm expert, he was still somewhat overwhelmed.
“Come back to the imperial capital with me!”
Bei Cheng said, “What happened today is not in your favor!”
“Return to the imperial capital?”
Lu Fan asked in surprise, “Why is that?”
“I suspect that one of my brothers is colluding with people from the Hell Dynasty!”
Bei Cheng said solemnly, “When I return to the imperial capital this time, I must find out who this person is. If you accompany me and inform my father of this matter, he will be able to believe me!”
“I am merely an outsider, and my words carry no weight!”
Lu Fan shook his head, his expression growing more serious. Having only arrived in the northwest not long ago, the prospect of going to the imperial capital made him feel uncomfortable.
“Believe me, as long as you say it, my father will believe it!” Bei Cheng said meaningfully.
Lu Fan felt a sense of helplessness. With Bei Cheng speaking like this, it seemed impossible for him to refuse.
