The news of Divine Sword Sectâs annihilation quickly spread, leaving everyone on edge.
Even the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, known for its unrestrained dominance over surrounding dynasties, couldnât remain calm.
An eighteen-year-old Six-Colored Golden Body Martial Venerable instilled fear in everyone. Even the Holy Sect would be restless if they provoked such a person, not daring to let him grow unchecked.
Among those at Celestial Eagle Castle were Martial Venerables from both Prisoner Dragon Stronghold and Moonlight Hall.
They were all certain that Wei Fan would seek revenge and would come to Celestial Eagle Castle first.
A Martial Venerable from Prisoner Dragon Stronghold nodded, "I only fear he doesnât come. If he dares show himself, I alone can kill him!"
Even if he is a Six-Colored Golden Body, he is still at the First Forging Cultivation. Besides the Moonlight Hall Master and Celestial Eagle Castle Lord, both Zhang Juzheng and I are confident in taking him down alone.
Zhang Juzheng shook his head, "Donât be careless. Ensure a killing move. If we donât kill Wei Fan this time, the next time he appears, weâll have no way out. Stick to the plan!"
...
In the sky, two streaks of light cut through the void, traveling unhurriedly!
Li Yunfei glanced at Wei Fan, "You so brazenly destroyed Divine Sword Sect, and now youâre heading to Celestial Eagle Castle? Arenât you afraid of ambushes? If you get ambushed, I wonât step in. My job is just to take you to the Sub-Palace, not to help you!"
Wei Fan had no shortage of enemies: Celestial Eagle Castle, Moonlight Hall, Prisoner Dragon Stronghold.
If these forces werenât foolish, they would certainly expect Wei Fan to come. He didnât think they would have any Jianghu honor to engage in one-on-one combat.
Wei Fan remained expressionless, "It would be better if they all gathered in one place, saving me the trouble of seeking them out one by one!"
Li Yunfei was somewhat uncertain. Had Wei Fan not exerted his full power in their previous fight?
Celestial Eagle Castle and Moonlight Hall were not highly ranked in the Wilderness, but he knew Prisoner Dragon Stronghold was not something anyone could provoke, as it had several Martial Venerables.
A moment later, Celestial Eagle Castle, resembling a soaring eagle, came into view.
"So many people have come to watch beforehand!"
In that instant, Wei Fanâs spiritual sense detected countless gazes fixed upon him, spread across the mountains and forests surrounding Celestial Eagle Castle.
"I sense danger. Are you sure you want to proceed?"
Li Yunfei wore a serious expression, his spiritual sense just as sharp. He felt that the nearby Celestial Eagle Castle was like a giant beast with its mouth open, ready to swallow someone whole.
Wei Fan smiled, "Why not continue? Theyâve finally gathered in one place. How could I let them down!"
If he were to retreat now, he might never have another chance to eliminate these people.
The reason they hadnât hidden away was that they thought they had a chance to kill him. If he disappeared once more, these people would likely hide, never showing themselves again.
No matter how powerful his methods, it would be hard to find them.
"Then take care. If you die, I canât guarantee anything else, but Iâll certainly help with Zhang Juzheng and Fan Chuan Sectâs affairs!"
Li Yunfei stopped, unwilling to get involved in Jianghu vendettas.
Wei Fan wasnât afraid of the Desert Martial Alliance, but he was.
The main reason was that they had only just met, and having fought before, their relationship hadnât developed to the point where Li Yunfei would help Wei Fan.
Wei Fan continued flying, reaching the skies above Celestial Eagle Castle within seconds.
The next moment, a brilliant golden light erupted, akin to an additional sun in the sky!
"Come out!"
He stomped into the void, a massive footprint descending toward Celestial Eagle Castle below.
Instantly, the Power of Heaven and Earth surged, causing the entire Celestial Eagle Castle to tremble.
"Wei Fan has appeared!"
"Heâs here to settle accounts with Celestial Eagle Castle after all."
...
In the mountains and forests within a dozen miles, numerous figures rose into the air, looking at Wei Fan from a distance.
Rumble...
The giant golden foot descended, shattering the central buildings of Celestial Eagle Castle, sending terrifying waves of destruction and enormous cracks spreading in all directions.
Wei Fan was somewhat surprised. The Castle Lord of Celestial Eagle Castle hadnât intercepted his attack, allowing his power to crash down, killing countless disciples of Celestial Eagle Castle.
[Killed Celestial Eagle Castle disciple, gained 100 years of power]
[Killed Celestial Eagle Castle disciple, gained 10 years of power]
[Killed Celestial Eagle Castle disciple, gained 40 years of power]
...
[Ordinary Power: 93,000 years]
[Golden Body Power: None]
The panel before him jumped wildly, increasing by several thousand years of power in an instant.
Wei Fanâs face showed a cold expression, "Seems thereâs no shortage of bad guys!"
Unless one is truly wicked, the system generally would not easily label a person from the Human Race as a bad guy.
"Raise the Four Symbols Lock Dragon Array!"
A voice filled with anger and murderous intent sounded, causing the earth around Celestial Eagle Castle to shake and then explode.
The next moment, four massive banners burst through the ground, emitting white light that engulfed both the sky and earth, including Wei Fan and Li Yunfei.
Li Yunfeiâs expression shifted slightly, "Martial Venerable level array banners!"
Such things are not something ordinary people can forge, nor would typical Martial Venerables refine such things as their weapons.
The overwhelming white light isolated Celestial Eagle Castle from the outside world, causing spectators to see nothing.
"Wei Fan, Iâve waited for you for a long time. Youâre full of youthful vigor, knowing the risks but coming anyway!"
The white light before him began to fade, revealing four brilliant golden figures rising into the air from below at Celestial Eagle Castle.
Wei Fanâs expression remained unchanged. He knew about the ambush long ago, and Li Yunfei had warned him.
In fact, if he wanted to leave, he could easily have used his Form Follows Heart technique to escape the arrayâs range before its completion.
The four figures surrounded Wei Fan and Li Yunfei from four directions.
"Why is there an extra person?" The Celestial Eagle Castle Lord questioned, looking at Li Yunfei.
Zhang Juzheng snorted, "Whoever he is, heâs probably Wei Fanâs accomplice. Since heâs here, he wonât be leaving alive!"
His identity couldnât be exposed!
It wouldnât matter if Moonlight Hall Master and Celestial Eagle Castle Lord joined forces with Prisoner Dragon Strongholdâs experts to kill Wei Fan, but he, as a Garrison Commander, joining forces with them to kill a Demon Hunter couldnât be made public.
Li Yunfeiâs face darkened. He had intended to stay out of it, but being too close to Celestial Eagle Castle, he was caught within the Four Symbols Lock Dragon Array.
Now Zhang Juzheng and the others didnât even ask who he was before saying they would kill him.
[Chen Jiaxin: Golden Body Sixth Forging, Dragon Head of Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, engages in rape and plunder]
[Kill him to gain 20,000 years of ordinary power, 60 years of Golden Body power]
[Zhang Juzheng: Golden Body Sixth Rank, Garrison Commander of Demon Suppression Bureau, colludes with Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, disregarding soldiersâ and civiliansâ lives to suppress colleagues]
[Kill him to gain 20,000 years of ordinary power, 60 years of Golden Body power]
...
"Zhang Juzheng is here too!"
Wei Fanâs eyes turned cold. The panel information showed Zhang Juzheng had frequently used his position to suppress colleagues and didnât care how many soldiers and civilians were harmed.
"So it was you, Zhang Juzheng, who sold information to Prisoner Dragon Stronghold about Wuying Gaoâs attempt to rescue prisoners and Wu Yinglong being held in Tongzhou!"
He had guessed that someone from the Demon Suppression Bureau had leaked the information during Wuying Gaoâs rescue attempt. As Garrison Commander, Zhang Juzheng certainly knew Wu Yinglong was held in Tongzhou.
Zhang Juzheng was stunned, "So you recognize me. Yes, I was the one who provided the information to Prisoner Dragon Stronghold!"
He admitted it straightforwardly. Now that Wei Fan was trapped in the Four Symbols Lock Dragon Array, there was no way he would survive, so there was no harm in admitting it.
If they couldnât kill Wei Fan in this scenario, they probably wouldnât survive either, so there was no need for subterfuge.
Wei Fanâs voice was cold, "As a Garrison Commander, colluding with a bandit group like Prisoner Dragon Strongholdâyou deserve to die!"
If he hadnât been the one escorting Wu Yinglong at the time, surely others would have ended up dead.
"No more wasting time with him!"
"Wei Fan, youâve killed many of our Prisoner Dragon Stronghold experts and even killed Dragon Head Martial Dao Hong. Today, no one can save you!"
Prisoner Dragon Strongholdâs Martial Venerable Chen Jiaxinâs Golden Body intertwined with a three-colored halo, crushing down like a Great Sun.
Now Wei Fan was trapped within the Four Symbols Lock Dragon Array, leaving him nowhere to escape.
The Celestial Eagle Castle Lord and Moonlight Hall Master both emitted a towering killing intent, attacking from other directions.
These two were both Three-Colored Golden Bodies with Fourth Forging cultivation.
At the same time, Zhang Juzheng controlled the Four Symbols Lock Dragon Array banners, unleashing a terrifying force to annihilate Wei Fan and Li Yunfei.
