Sensing Lu Fan's aura, the complexions of several men changed drastically. They could clearly feel the killing intent emanating from Lu Fan. If they lingered any longer, Lu Fan would surely suppress them.
"Since you all look down on the Dragon Dynasty so much, why not try your hand at it!"
Lu Fan held the Tai Xu Sword, his body enveloped in a formidable aura.
The figures of the men paused slightly. If they retreated after Lu Fan’s words, wouldn't that shame the Eight Extremes Sect?
"What do you mean by that?" the leading man turned his head. "Do you intend to make an enemy of the Eight Extremes Sect?"
"I don't know if it's the Eight Extremes Sect or the Nine Extremes Sect, but in my eyes, you are already corpses!"
Lu Fan unleashed the Tai Xu Sword instantly, carrying an ancient aura. These people were ignorant of the world's immensity, so Lu Fan intended to teach them a lesson. Otherwise, how could the Dragon Dynasty ever find peace in the future?
Seeing Lu Fan make a move, Long Yi was also somewhat surprised. They thought Lu Fan wouldn't act rashly, as offending an ancient sect was no small matter, especially at the nascent stage of the dynasty's establishment.
"You dare to attack!"
The leading man's face turned ashen. He wanted to block Lu Fan's sword energy, but Lu Fan's Tai Xu Sword Intent had reached an extremely high realm, making it impossible for him to resist. In that instant, his body was pierced by the Tai Xu Sword.
Seeing this, the other men's expressions shifted slightly. They were all first-tier Battle Emperor powerhouses, but they never imagined that Lu Fan, on his own, could reach such a formidable level.
"You killed a Battle Emperor of my Eight Extremes Sect, and the Eight Extremes Sect will be relentlessly hostile towards you!" one of the men said furiously.
"Do you think you can escape?" Lu Fan chuckled lightly. "If you want to oppose the Dragon Dynasty, you must first see if you are qualified. You are merely frogs in a well, daring to act as clowns here!"
As Lu Fan's words fell, the Tai Xu Sword Intent surged out once more, carrying an unparalleled artistic conception, rushing towards the men.
Even third-tier Battle Emperors had died in Lu Fan's hands, let alone these first-tier Battle Emperors. In Lu Fan's eyes, they were insignificant.
Seeing the numerous Battle Emperors fall, Long Yi also found it incredible, "Will resolving all of them cause unnecessary trouble?"
"Even if we don't resolve them, there will be no less trouble!" Lu Fan shrugged. "Since these ancient sects intend to deal with the Dragon Dynasty, the Dragon Dynasty must show them some consequences. Otherwise, they'll truly believe the Dragon Dynasty is a soft persimmon, easily manipulated!"
Long Yi nodded meaningfully, but he was still somewhat shocked. Lu Fan's decisiveness in killing earned his admiration.
The fact that he could kill Battle Emperor powerhouses so readily, even an ancient sect couldn't achieve that.
"Let's head to the West Gate!"
Lu Fan said, "Xiao Ke is still at the West Gate. I wonder what the situation is like now!"
"With the Frost Sword in hand and the blessing of national destiny, he should be fine!" Long Yi smiled. "But why did you come to me first? Shouldn't you have gone to the West Gate first? That's your beloved."
"Don't overthink it. I came along this path. Moreover, Xiao Ke's strength is superior to yours, so he will undoubtedly be able to hold on!" Lu Fan waved his hand, saying no more, and headed directly towards the West Gate.
Outside the West City Gate, Lin Ke stood tall, gazing into the distance. There was no movement at all. The Frost Sword hovered behind him, emitting a dense chill.
Knowing that Lu Fan had arrived, not a single expert from any ancient sect had come to the West Gate.
"Xiao Ke, what's going on?" Lu Fan asked. "Hasn't anyone from the ancient sects come to the West Gate?"
"I don't know either. I haven't seen anyone," Lin Ke replied. "But for some reason, I feel like these gates are being watched by someone, which makes me uncomfortable!"
"Watched?"
Lu Fan frowned, scanning his surroundings, but detected nothing. "Are you too tired? There shouldn't be anyone at the West Gate."
"Perhaps I'm hallucinating," Lin Ke said with a wry smile. "All the members of the ancient sects have been dealt with. I doubt they would dare to cause trouble."
"That's not necessarily true!" Lu Fan shook his head. "The ancient sects have many experts. Those who came this time were just a tiny fraction. If I'm not mistaken, these individuals were merely testing the waters. The truly powerful figures are still behind!"
"Truly powerful figures?" Lin Ke asked with some worry. "How terrifying are they?"
"I don't know the specifics, but it's not that simple to become a dynasty!" Lu Fan said with a bitter smile.
Just as they were talking, dozens of figures appeared directly above the Dragon Capital. Their auras were formidable, radiating an unparalleled presence. They stood upon Lu Fan's statue, creating boundless waves of energy.
The common folk in the Dragon Capital looked up and shouted curses, filled with dissatisfaction. In their eyes, Lu Fan was like a deity, and how could he be trampled upon by others?
At this very moment, Lu Fan also sensed the commotion in the Dragon Capital, his expression shifting. Someone had entered the Dragon Capital, and their aura was extremely powerful, causing him to feel a sense of unease.
"A mere small nation, and you aspire to become an imperial dynasty?"
An ancient voice resounded through the Dragon Capital, shaking the assembled masses. Among the dozens of figures, the elder at the forefront leaned on a staff, his eyes icy, looking down upon everyone present.
The Grand Elder frowned. He could sense that the elder before him was no ordinary person, likely an apex expert. Not only that, but the dozens of figures beside the elder were also not ordinary individuals.
"May I ask who you are, senior?" The Grand Elder of the Dragon Dynasty cupped his fists. "Within the capital of the Dragon Dynasty, no one is allowed to run amok!"
"With mere small fries like you, you wish to establish a dynasty?" The elder with the staff sneered. "I'd like to see what capabilities you possess!"
"This is truly infuriating!" The Ninth Elder of the Dragon Dynasty, filled with rage, stepped forward. "I am the Ninth Elder of the Dragon Dynasty. Let me test just how powerful you are to dare to speak such arrogant words!"
However, before the Ninth Elder could make a move, the elder with the staff simply tapped his staff. A powerful force was unleashed, sending the Ninth Elder flying. He had managed to intimidate everyone present without even lifting a finger.
"Ninth!" the Grand Elder exclaimed in alarm, rushing forward to help him up. "How are you?"
"I'm fine," the Ninth Elder shook his head, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. "This person's strength is extremely formidable. Do not be careless!"
The Grand Elder nodded gravely. How could he not see that these people had significant origins? It was likely that the Dragon Dynasty would face utter annihilation today.
"So it's him!" Looking at the elder with the staff on the high platform, Long Yi suddenly stopped, looking somewhat terrified and even feeling a sense of dread.
"Who is he?" Lin Ke asked. "Why does he possess such a formidable aura?"
