"What is going on?"
Bai Wuchang spoke, his brow furrowed. The scene before him had stunned him completely.
"This kid is not simple. Although he is at the peak of the Martial Emperor realm, his true combat power is definitely not below ours!"
Hei Wuchang stated, "Be careful with everything. Don't let this kid find any leverage against you!"
Bai Wuchang nodded, his brow still furrowed. He hadn't expected things to turn out this way, and he was caught somewhat off guard.
At the same time, Lu Fan's lips curved upwards, "You are no match for me, even if you join forces!"
"Such arrogance!"
Hei and Bai Wuchang said coldly, "We were careless just now and didn't take you seriously. If we fight again, you will definitely pay the price!"
Lu Fan's expression was indifferent, and he didn't take their words to heart. Even against an Immortal Emperor realm expert, he had the strength to fight. How could he possibly take two half-step Emperor realm experts seriously?
"Attack together and suppress and kill him!"
Hei Wuchang said coldly, black energy swirling around him, exuding a powerful aura.
Bai Wuchang was the same, not holding back at all.
As long as they could capture Lu Fan, it would be a great advantage for them.
Even if they couldn't capture him, severely injuring Lu Fan would also be acceptable.
"Death Qi!"
Xue Long looked at the black energy and shouted towards Lu Fan, "Hei and Bai Wuchang are surrounded by Death Qi. Do not come into contact with it, or your life will be in danger!"
Lu Fan nodded slightly, his expression serious. He hadn't expected Hei and Bai Wuchang to possess such a skill.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Fan's figure soared into the air, exuding an unparalleled aura. If he were to be touched by Hei and Bai Wuchang, his life would likely be in danger.
Lu Fan understood this point, otherwise, he wouldn't be so worried.
At the same time, Hei and Bai Wuchang transformed into streams of black energy and rushed directly towards Lu Fan. As long as they could envelop Lu Fan with Death Qi, everything else would be secondary.
Rumble...
With a roar, Hei and Bai Wuchang's figures were violently blown away. Wherever they approached Lu Fan, it caused a great commotion.
The black mist that Hei and Bai Wuchang had transformed into instantly disappeared, and their two figures were slammed towards the ground.
Two massive pits appeared. The people in Jiuzhou City cheered, greatly admiring Lu Fan's methods.
"We won! The Marshal won!"
A burst of joyous cries erupted. Everyone spoke out, their eyes filled with delight.
At the same time, the people of the Hell Dynasty were filled with fear. They knew very well that any slight mistake would lead to endless turmoil.
"Withdraw!"
Hei and Bai Wuchang's hoarse voices rang out, and they left Jiuzhou City in a disheveled state.
The people of Jiuzhou City were stunned and looked towards Lu Fan, wanting him to stop them, but Lu Fan did not make a move.
"Marshal, why didn't you pursue them while you were ahead?"
The North American County Lord spoke, his expression particularly serious, deeply concerned about the matter.
"We don't know the situation on the Hell Dynasty's side. If we barge in rashly, it might be dangerous!"
Lu Fan waved his hand, his expression grave. This matter was no trivial thing; any slight misstep would lead to complete defeat.
"Reporting to the Marshal, many other strongholds have been attacked by the Hell Dynasty!"
A soldier reported, appearing extremely urgent, not daring to delay in the slightest.
Lu Fan looked at the City Lord of Yunhai, "Take everyone to reinforce them. Make sure to repel the people of the Hell Dynasty!"
"But what about Jiuzhou City!"
The City Lord of Yunhai hesitated, his expression grave. He knew very well that Jiuzhou City was a critical location and could not afford any mishap.
If Jiuzhou City were lost, it would be a great disaster for the Heavenly Court Dynasty.
"Don't worry, with me here, no one can touch Jiuzhou City!"
Lu Fan stated directly, with confidence. Hei and Bai Wuchang had already been severely injured, and it was unlikely they could cause any damage to Jiuzhou City.
As the generals went to reinforce, there were not many soldiers left in Jiuzhou City.
"In this case, Jiuzhou City is empty. Will something happen!"
The North American County Lord spoke, looking at Lu Fan, his expression particularly serious.
Lu Fan was unconcerned by these words, "With me and Xue Long guarding this place, even if an Immortal Emperor realm expert were to come, they might not be able to shake this place!"
The North American County Lord was stunned and immediately agreed with Lu Fan's statement, feeling relieved. He was very clear about this.
Xue Long frowned slightly but did not say much. There were some things he wanted to say but found it difficult to speak directly.
After a long while, news came from the various strongholds that the Hell Dynasty had been repelled. While they were happy, they were also surprised.
Under normal circumstances, the people of the Hell Dynasty were not weaker than the Heavenly Court Dynasty, but why were so many strongholds intact?
Within the Heavenly Court Imperial Capital, the various battles had caused quite a stir, and people were discussing it heatedly.
"Your Majesty, relying on the King of the Northwest is not enough to lead the army. If we don't change the person, our Heavenly Court Dynasty will be in peril!"
Grand Tutor Wen's voice rang out, deeply concerned about this matter.
The Heavenly Emperor frowned, his gaze falling upon Grand Tutor Wen, "You are too bold. The King of the Northwest is leading the army, and you are here to disrupt morale. What crime do you deserve!"
Grand Tutor Wen was startled and immediately knelt down, "This old minister is also thinking for the Heavenly Court. I hope Your Majesty will investigate clearly!"
"No need to say more!"
The Heavenly Emperor said coldly, "At the court back then, none of you were willing to lead the army. Now that the King of the Northwest is personally leading the army, you act in such a manner. You are truly petty!"
Everyone was slightly startled. They had originally wanted to intercede for Grand Tutor Wen, but now, seeing the Emperor's anger, they dared not say anything more.
"Victory report! The great armies of the Heavenly Court have withstood the offensive of the Hell Dynasty!"
A messenger stepped forward, not daring to delay in the slightest.
With this victory report, the Heavenly Emperor's face instantly lit up with joy.
He had been somewhat worried, but now it seemed there were no problems.
"Grand Tutor Wen, what do you think!"
The Heavenly Emperor said coldly, "The King of the Northwest has sacrificed much for the Heavenly Court. Everyone, please do not let the King of the Northwest be disheartened!"
Seeing this, the old ministers also clasped their fists, not daring to say anything further.
Grand Tutor Wen's expression was grim, and he did not say much more. At this point, he felt somewhat caught off guard.
At the same time, everyone could clearly sense in their eyes that some things were not as simple as they seemed.
Within Jiuzhou City, Lu Fan stood on the city wall and discovered that in the region opposite, countless people from the Hell Dynasty had appeared, looking like a dense, dark mass.
"So strong, such a powerful aura!"
Looking at the scene before him, the North American County Lord was greatly alarmed, "Could this be the main force of the Hell Dynasty!"
"Summon the other strongholds to reinforce Jiuzhou City!"
Lu Fan's voice rang out, his expression grave. He hadn't expected that the Hell Dynasty was merely a diversion, and their true target was Jiuzhou City. He had been careless.
Jiuzhou City had the weakest defenses and was left with very few troops. How could he possibly defend the city by himself?
