"Rest assured, Manager Li, I do not fear him even at his peak, let alone after a night of struggle when he is exhausted!"
Lu Fan sneered, not taking the Heavenly Fiend seriously at all.
Once the Heavenly Fiend was dealt with, the experts from the Divine Dragon Hall would arrive soon, and by then, the Nine Heavens Dynasty would surely be broken.
Sensing Lu Fan's aura, the Heavenly Fiend immediately frowned. He had initially thought Lu Fan was just a brash young man, but seeing him today, he was truly remarkable.
The Heavenly Fiend dared not be careless, forcibly boosting his aura and transforming into a blur as he lunged towards Lu Fan.
With his current exhaustion, failing to kill Lu Fan beforehand would not be beneficial for him, and could even be life-threatening.
*Boom...*
A tremendous collision echoed as the Heavenly Fiend was violently sent flying, his face filled with disbelief. As a Earth Venerable, he was in such a sorry state.
The other Venerables of the Heavenly Fiend were aghast, clearly not understanding what had happened.
Under normal circumstances, it shouldn't have been like this; they were well aware of the Heavenly Fiend's strength.
"It seems you are nothing more than this!"
Lu Fan sneered, "Once I kill you and intimidate the other powerhouses of the Nine Heavens Dynasty, this situation will be resolved!"
"You think too highly of yourself!"
The Heavenly Fiend sneered, "The Nine Heavens Dynasty has mobilized all its experts; no one can change the tide of this battle!"
"You can't speak too soon!"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, a faint killing intent emerging. If he could slay the Heavenly Fiend, then dealing with the other members of the Heavenly Fiend Guard would significantly lighten the burden on the Dynasty.
With this thought, Lu Fan wasted no time and lunged towards the Heavenly Fiend, his powerful aura preceding him.
The Heavenly Fiend's expression changed. He knew very well that Lu Fan's strength was considerable, and if he were to clash with Lu Fan head-on, he would be the one at a disadvantage.
In his helplessness, the Heavenly Fiend hastily retreated. His only option now was to stall Lu Fan, thereby buying time for the forces of the Nine Heavens Dynasty.
Unfortunately, Lu Fan did not oblige. Seeing that he dared not face him directly, Lu Fan turned his attention to the other experts of the Heavenly Fiend Guard.
In the blink of an eye, he had killed one of the Venerables of the Nine Heavens Dynasty.
Witnessing this, the people of the Nine Heavens Dynasty were even more horrified. They had clearly not anticipated Lu Fan to be so formidable. These ordinary Venerables seemed to count for nothing before him.
"Damn it!"
The Heavenly Fiend's expression shifted. He could never have imagined that Lu Fan would attack others.
"If you refuse to face me head-on, I will hunt down and kill the Venerables of the Heavenly Fiend Guard one by one!"
Lu Fan stated coldly, "If you don't believe me, you can try!"
The Heavenly Fiend's face darkened, "You brat, if you have the guts, come at me!"
"And you have the guts not to run!"
Lu Fan said coldly, simultaneously looking towards the distant horizon with joy. He knew that the experts from the Divine Dragon Hall were about to arrive.
Not far from Heavenly Immortal City, many cultivators witnessed the vast procession of the Divine Dragon Hall, their hearts filled with shock. They had not expected the Divine Dragon Hall to come to the aid of the Dynasty.
Tens of thousands of experts, the sky was a dark expanse. Such formidable power could likely rival an era's dynasty.
"The time is ripe; the Nine Heavens Dynasty is heading towards its demise!"
Lu Fan laughed heartily, his words carrying significant weight.
The Heavenly Fiend had been somewhat puzzled, but upon sensing the numerous auras in the sky ahead, his face instantly turned ashen, "What is this?"
"Reinforcements from the Divine Dragon Hall!"
Lu Fan sneered, "One hundred Venerables have descended. I wonder if the Nine Heavens Dynasty can withstand them!"
"One hundred Venerables?"
Filled with disbelief, the Heavenly Fiend was at a loss. If Lu Fan's words were true, how could they possibly deal with such terrifying fighting strength?
"One hundred Venerables from the Divine Dragon Hall have arrived to reinforce us!"
A mighty roar surged into the sky. The dark expanse above instantly joined the fray. The many experts of the Nine Heavens Dynasty were shocked, their bodies forcefully repelled.
With so many experts arriving from the White Dragon Dynasty, they were no match for them.
"My Lord, this northern expedition has failed. We must retreat as soon as possible!"
Grand Tutor Wen came to the side of the Nine Heavens Emperor, thoroughly frightened. The arrival of so many powerhouses was a tremendous blow to them.
Seeing this, the Nine Heavens Emperor was filled with unwillingness, but upon seeing the dense ranks of reinforcements, he knew that this endeavor was doomed to failure.
"Retreat!"
The Nine Heavens Emperor sighed, and with a surge, he ascended into the sky, heading towards the Nine Heavens Dynasty. At this point, there was nothing else they could do.
The Heavenly Fiend, seeing this, also hurriedly shouted, "Heavenly Fiend forces, withdraw from the battlefield!"
"The White Dragon Dynasty is not a place you can enter and leave as you please!"
Lu Fan said coldly, his figure ascending into the sky to block the Heavenly Fiend.
The Heavenly Fiend's face instantly turned ashen. Lu Fan's strength was not weak, and he was already at his limit. If Lu Fan truly intended to stop him, escaping today would likely not be easy.
"Whether you can leave depends on whether we agree!"
Liu Qianjiao sneered, her figure soaring into the sky to intercept the other experts of the Heavenly Fiend.
With the numerous powerhouses from the Divine Dragon Hall now present, dealing with these individuals was a mere formality.
The faces of the Heavenly Fiend's Venerables turned grim. They had never imagined things would turn out this way.
"Break through the encirclement; we must not be trapped!"
The Heavenly Fiend roared, his face filled with despair. As more powerhouses arrived, if this continued, the members of the Heavenly Fiend Guard would surely perish here.
"It's futile!"
Lu Fan's Sacred Fire surged in his hand, "It's time for you to feel despair!"
As he spoke, flames transformed into swords, attacking the Heavenly Fiend's experts without any hesitation.
*Rumble...*
Sounds echoed across the sky, and several more Venerables met their demise.
The Heavenly Fiend could no longer concern himself with others and directly charged out of the city. At this point, managing to escape as one individual was a stroke of luck. As for his brothers in the Heavenly Fiend Guard, he could do nothing for them.
Before long, apart from the Heavenly Fiend, all other members of the Heavenly Fiend Guard had fallen. The battlefield was filled with experts from the Divine Dragon Hall, who were like fish in water.
Most of the generals of the Nine Heavens Dynasty were killed during their flight, appearing utterly defeated, a stark contrast to their earlier demeanor.
"Sir, have we arrived in good time?"
The Grand Elder of the Divine Dragon Hall approached and bowed slightly, showing great courtesy to Lu Fan.
"Very timely!"
Lu Fan stated directly, "Otherwise, the White Dragon Dynasty would have likely been annihilated!"
"That's good then!"
The Grand Elder of the Divine Dragon Hall nodded. To arrive as quickly as possible, they had not dared to delay, but their massive contingent meant they could not be as swift as Lu Fan.
"Thank you all!"
The Dragon Emperor cupped his fists, showing immense gratitude. Without the experts from the Divine Dragon Hall, the White Dragon Dynasty would likely not have been saved.
"Dragon Emperor, there's no need for thanks!"
The Grand Elder waved his hand, "We are merely following orders!"
