Sensing Lu Fan's aura, the expressions of several men changed drastically. They could clearly feel Lu Fan's killing intent. If they delayed any further, Lu Fan would surely make a move and suppress them.
"Since you all look down on the Dragon Dynasty so much, why not try us?"
Lu Fan held the Tai Xu Sword, his body radiating a powerful aura.
The figures of the men paused slightly. If they retreated now, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the Ba Ji Sect?
"What do you mean by that?" the leading man turned and asked, "Are you trying to be enemies with the Ba Ji Sect?"
"I don't know if it's the Ba Ji Sect or the Jiu Ji Sect. In my eyes, you are already corpses!"
Lu Fan instantly unleashed the Tai Xu Sword, carrying an extremely ancient aura. These people were ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth, 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 unfortunately, Lu Fan's Tai Xu Sword Intent had reached an extremely high realm, which he could not possibly block. In that instant, his body was pierced by the Tai Xu Sword.
Seeing this, the expressions of the other men also shifted slightly. They were all at the first stage of the Battle Emperor realm, but they never expected Lu Fan, on his own, to achieve such formidable power.
"You killed a Battle Emperor of my Ba Ji Sect, and the Ba Ji Sect will be your sworn enemy!" one of the men roared in anger.
"Do you think you can escape?" Lu Fan chuckled lightly. "If you want to be enemies with 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 soon as Lu Fan finished speaking, the Tai Xu Sword Intent surged forth again, carrying supreme artistic conception, rushing towards the men.
Even a third-stage Battle Emperor had died in Lu Fan's hands, let alone these first-stage Battle Emperors. In Lu Fan's eyes, they were insignificant.
Seeing the many Battle Emperors fall, Long Yi also said in disbelief, "Will eliminating all of them cause unnecessary trouble?"
"Even if we don't eliminate them, there will still be plenty of trouble!" Lu Fan shrugged. "Since these ancient sects intend to deal with the Dragon Dynasty, the Dragon Dynasty must show them its strength. Otherwise, they will truly think the Dragon Dynasty is a soft persimmon to be manipulated!"
Long Yi nodded thoughtfully, but he was still somewhat shocked. Lu Fan's decisive and ruthless nature was something he greatly admired.
Killing Battle Emperors as he pleased, something even ancient sects couldn't do.
"Let's go to the West Gate!"
Lu Fan spoke, "Xiao Ke is still at the West Gate. I wonder how things are there!"
"He has the Ice Sword in hand, and with the nation's destiny bolstering him, 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 this way. Besides, Xiao Ke's strength is superior to yours, and he will surely persevere!" Lu Fan waved his hand, not saying anything further, and headed directly towards the West Gate.
Outside the West City Gate, Lin Ke stood, gazing into the distance without any movement. The Ice Sword floated behind him, emitting a dense cold air.
Knowing Lu Fan was coming, not a single expert from any ancient sect had appeared at the West Gate.
"Xiao Ke, what's going on?" Lu Fan asked. "Could it be that no strong individuals have come to the West Gate?"
"I don't know either. I haven't seen anyone,"
Lin Ke nodded. "But for some reason, I feel like these gates are being watched by someone, which makes me uneasy!"
"Watched?"
Lu Fan frowned and looked around, but sensed nothing. "Are you too tired? There shouldn't be anyone at the West Gate!"
"Perhaps I'm hallucinating,"
Lin Ke gave a wry smile. "All the people from the ancient sects have been dealt with. I presume they wouldn't dare to come and cause trouble."
"That's not necessarily true!"
Lu Fan shook his head. "The ancient sects have many experts. Those who came this time were merely a drop in the bucket. If I'm not mistaken, these people were just here to test the waters. The truly powerful figures are still behind!"
"Truly powerful figures?"
Lin Ke showed some concern. "How terrifying would that be?"
"I don't know the specifics, but becoming a dynasty is not that simple!" Lu Fan said with a bitter smile.
As they were talking, dozens of figures appeared directly above the Dragon Capital. These people radiated powerful auras and possessed unparalleled might. Standing on Lu Fan's statue, they stirred up boundless waves of energy.
The many citizens within the Dragon Capital saw this and began to curse loudly, filled with indignation. In their eyes, Lu Fan was like a deity, and they could not tolerate him being trampled upon.
At this very moment, Lu Fan also sensed the commotion in the Dragon Capital. His expression changed greatly. Someone had entered the Dragon Capital, and their aura was extremely strong, causing him to worry.
"A mere small nation, and you dare to aspire to become an imperial dynasty?"
An ancient voice echoed through the Dragon Capital, shaking all present. Among the dozens of people, the leading elder leaned on his cane, his eyes filled with coldness as he looked down upon everyone.
The Grand Elder frowned. He could feel that the old man before him was extraordinary, likely a supreme master. Furthermore, the dozens of figures beside the old man were by no means ordinary people.
"May I ask who senior is?"
The Grand Elder of the Dragon Dynasty cupped his fists. "Within the capital of the Dragon Dynasty, no one is allowed to cause trouble!"
"With just you insignificant figures, you wish to establish a dynasty?"
The elder with the cane sneered. "I would like to see what capabilities you possess!"
"This is truly infuriating!"
The Ninth Elder of the Dragon Dynasty was furious and stepped forward. "I am the Ninth Elder of the Dragon Dynasty. Let me see how powerful you are to dare to speak so arrogantly here!"
However, before the Ninth Elder could make a move, the elder with the cane merely tapped his cane, and a powerful surge of energy was unleashed, sending the Ninth Elder flying. Without even drawing a single soldier, he was able to deter everyone.
"Old Ninth!"
The Grand Elder was shocked and quickly stepped 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 solemnly. How could he not see that these people had a significant background? It was likely that the Dragon Dynasty would face a disaster of annihilation today.
"So it's him!"
Looking at the elder with the cane on the high platform, Long Yi abruptly stopped and was somewhat terrified, even feeling a sense of dread.
"Who is he?" Lin Ke asked. "Why does he possess such a powerful aura?"
