"Haha, I told you long ago I'd be fine!" Yan Cangtian sneered, "You wouldn't dare touch me!"
Although he was severely injured, he knew very well the powerful forces behind him. Even if Lu Fan wanted to harm him, he wouldn't be able to succeed.
The elders of the Dragon Country wouldn't agree, the martial arts experts of the Dragon Country wouldn't agree, and the common people of the Dragon Country wouldn't agree.
"Kill him!"
"Kill him!"
Shouts erupted as the martial arts experts of the Dragon Country were filled with righteous indignation. If not for the ambitions of the Azure Sky Country to annex the Dragon Country, so many experts of the Dragon Country wouldn't have perished.
The elders frowned, unsure of what to do. Killing Yan Cangtian was a destined act, but the Dragon Country would face immense anger afterward. They were all too aware of this.
"Lu boy, listen to me, let him go!"
The Fourth Elder's voice rang out again, "A gentleman's revenge is never too late!"
"Fourth Elder, I know your worries, but if the Azure Sky Country intends to make a move, they won't hold back!" Lu Fan stated, "Even if I let him go today, the Dragon Country will inevitably face turmoil in the future!"
The Fourth Elder's body trembled. How could he not understand Lu Fan's words? He just wanted to buy some time. In a few more years, the Dragon Country would surely become stronger and would never suffer humiliation from others.
"Since you are determined, I will not dissuade you!" the Fourth Elder said, "The Dragon Country has endured for many years; it's time to be willful!"
Elder Wuji's expression shifted, "Does the Dragon Country truly wish to be enemies with the Azure Sky Country until death? With the Dragon Country's meager strength?"
"So what?" the Fourth Elder retorted, "You people have always bullied the Dragon Country. Today, as the leader of the Dragon Country, I officially declare a fight to the death with all of you!"
Elder Wuji's face darkened. In the past, the Dragon Country would always bow and scrape, compromising under any circumstances. But the Dragon Country of today made him see things anew.
And all this change was due to Lu Fan's appearance. Without Lu Fan, the Dragon Country would never be like this.
Yan Cangtian finally felt fear, a fear he could no longer conceal, causing him to worry.
"You should be on your way!"
Lu Fan looked at Yan Cangtian, "Pay the price for everything you've done!"
Seeing Lu Fan approaching step by step, Yan Cangtian retreated continuously, despair in his eyes.
After being injured by Lu Fan, he had lost his combat power. Now, for Lu Fan to kill him was as easy as crushing an ant.
Elder Wuji, seeing the situation turn dire, quickly fled out of Death Valley. If Yan Cangtian died, he would be next.
Although his strength was considerable among the elders of the Sea Country, he knew his place when compared to the current Lu Fan.
"Elder Wuji, where are you going?"
The Fourth Elder stepped forward, blocking Elder Wuji's path, his expression cold.
Since the Sea Country was involved in attacking the Dragon Country, he naturally wouldn't let Elder Wuji go easily.
"If I die, the Azure Sky Country will never let you go!" Yan Cangtian's voice continued to echo, but Lu Fan simply didn't listen.
Han Bing stood by the side, joy in his eyes, "The three major alliances have suffered a great defeat. If we kill him, the Dragon Country will have a complete victory in this battle!"
"I'm afraid it's not that simple!"
Jian Ying remarked, "If Lord Lu truly kills Yan Cangtian, he will likely face endless pursuit in the future. The Azure Sky Country will definitely not let him off!"
"We will never stand by and watch Lord Lu be harmed!" the members of the Dragon Group declared.
If not for Lu Fan this time, the Dragon Country would have been overthrown. Therefore, Lu Fan was the benefactor of every person in the Dragon Country.
As members of the Dragon Group, they would sacrifice themselves rather than let anything happen to Lu Fan.
With a tragic scream, Yan Cangtian was killed on the spot, causing the martial arts experts of the Azure Sky Country to have weak legs.
Now, the Azure Sky Country was thousands of miles away. Even if they sent reinforcements, it would likely be too late.
"Kill, avenge our fallen compatriots!"
A wave of battle cries arose as the martial arts experts of the Dragon Country stepped forward, fierce determination in their eyes.
During the previous stronghold defense battle, the three major alliances, relying on their superior numbers, had killed many compatriots of the Dragon Country. Now that the opportunity had arrived, they would not let it slip away easily.
Elder Wuji's eyes filled with despair as he saw Yan Cangtian killed. He had never imagined things would turn out this way.
The three allied countries had attacked, but they couldn't suppress the Dragon Country, and the Azure Sky Country had even dispatched a Half-step Battle Emperor expert.
"Elder Wuji, is this the situation you desired?" the Fourth Elder asked, narrowing his eyes as he looked at Elder Wuji.
"Fourth Elder, heaven knows, it's not that the Sea Country wanted to trouble the Dragon Country; we were forced into it!"
Elder Wuji said repeatedly, "As long as the Dragon Country lets bygones be bygones, the Sea Country will never invade the Dragon Country again!"
"That might not be possible!" the Fourth Elder narrowed his eyes, "Even if I agree, I'm afraid our Dragon Country's guardian god won't agree!"
As soon as the words fell, Lu Fan appeared behind Elder Wuji, "What, you caused trouble in the Outer Domain Battlefield and now you want to leave? That doesn't seem quite right."
"Little Brother Lu, the Sea Country was truly forced and had no intention of offending. "Now that Yan Cangtian is dead, you have completely offended the Azure Sky Country. Do you still want to be enemies with the Sea Country until death!" Elder Wuji pleaded repeatedly.
"Are you threatening me?" Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, a cold glint appearing within them.
"No, no, dare not!" Elder Wuji quickly forced a smile, helplessness in his expression.
"The Sea Country is merely a fence-sitter. When the Azure Sky Country attacks the Dragon Country, the Sea Country will surely not stand idly by!" Lu Fan said coldly, "Since that is the case, how can you live today!"
"Currently, the elders of the Sea Country are all in seclusion, and everything is up to me. As long as I close off the country, there will be no conflict with the Dragon Country!" Elder Wuji guaranteed.
Lu Fan's strength was unfathomable; even Yan Cangtian was no match for him. If Lu Fan truly intended to attack him, he wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"If that's the case, then I really shouldn't kill you today?" Lu Fan sneered, "However, your actions today have greatly disappointed me!"
"As long as Lord Lu is happy, I will do whatever Lord Lu wants me to!" Elder Wuji said earnestly, now completely terrified of Lu Fan.
"Since that's the case, then have the experts of the Sea Country intercept the experts of the Azure Sky Country!" Lu Fan said with a faint smile, "If you perform well, I might consider letting you go!"
"This..." Elder Wuji's expression changed. Attacking the Azure Sky Country's experts, if the higher-ups of the Azure Sky Country found out, he would likely lose his life.
"What, you seem unwilling?" Lu Fan sneered, "Since you're unwilling, I'll take your head now to avoid future trouble!"
"Willing, of course, I'm willing!" Elder Wuji quickly responded. Su Dan Novel Network
Now that he was a guest in their land, if he didn't do as Lu Fan said, he might lose his life. Even if it meant losing face, he had no choice.
