"He is the Dean of Cang Long Academy!"
Long Yi said solemnly, "His strength should not be underestimated. He is no ordinary figure!"
Lu Fan's brows furrowed slightly. If even the mentors of Cang Long Academy had reached the War Emperor level, the Dean must be even more terrifying. This meant they were in for big trouble today.
"Long Yi, you've finally arrived!"
The old man with the walking stick looked at Long Yi, a faint cold glint in his eyes, "You were the most gifted disciple of Cang Long Academy. I never expected you to betray me!"
"I'm just being true to myself!"
Long Yi shrugged his shoulders, "The Dean himself has come. He's not here for me, is he?"
"Of course, I'm not here for you!"
The Cang Long Dean sneered, "You're not qualified enough for that!"
As his words fell, the Cang Long Dean's gaze shifted to the Tai Xu Sword in Lu Fan's hand. "It truly is a good item! It lives up to its ancient reputation!"
"It is indeed a good item, but unfortunately, it's not yours!"
Lu Fan said coldly, "You've come to stop the birth of the Dragon Dynasty. But isn't this overkill?"
"You brat are truly sharp-tongued, but all that will vanish in the face of true power!"
The Cang Long Dean said coldly, "The people of the ancient Lu clan are absolutely not allowed to exist in this world!"
As his voice faded, figures surged into the sky, radiating immense light. These were all mentors from Cang Long Academy, their strength unfathomable, having reached the War Emperor realm. Their personal intervention would surely be a thunderous blow.
"Your Majesty, be careful!"
The elders shouted, their voices filled with concern. Cang Long Academy had an abundance of experts, all of them War Emperors. If they attacked together, how could Lu Fan possibly resist?
Sensing the numerous figures, Lu Fan's gaze turned cold. Cang Long Academy bore a deep, bloody feud with him. With his enemies now before him, he would show no mercy.
"We shall lend our strength to His Majesty!"
The elders spoke, stepping forward one after another towards the mentors of Cang Long Academy. Empowered by the continuous blessings of national fortune, the elders' actual combat power had reached an extremely high level. Though there was still a gap compared to the War Emperors, they could still put up a fight.
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight mentors were intercepted. Meanwhile, over a dozen more figures charged towards Lu Fan, heedless of anything in their path, leaving nothing but barren land wherever they passed.
The many experts of the Dragon Kingdom wished to join the fray, but they found that in the face of such overwhelming power, numbers meant nothing. They could only watch helplessly, unable to offer any assistance.
The citizens of the Dragon Capital prayed in their hearts, hoping that Lu Fan would remain safe. In their minds, Lu Fan had sacrificed too much for the Dragon Kingdom. If anything were to happen to him, they would find it unbearable.
Seeing the more than ten War Emperors surging towards him, Lu Fan gripped the Tai Xu Sword and charged into the sky. Wherever the Tai Xu Sword passed, sword intent followed.
"So strong!"
Many mentors were astonished. They had initially thought Lu Fan to be all show, but it seemed that was not the case. Such a formidable aura inspired considerable apprehension.
However, the Dean had given his orders, and they dared not disobey, so they could only brace themselves and charge towards Lu Fan.
"Tai Xu Sword Intent!"
Lu Fan shouted, and sword intent surged wherever he went. In that instant, powerful sword intent permeated the entire Dragon Capital, causing it to tremble.
The Cang Long Dean stood on the high platform, observing the scene with a hint of satisfaction. "This is the Tai Xu Sword, is it not? It truly hasn't disappointed!"
In that very moment, several mentors from Cang Long Academy perished. Under the formidable sword intent of Lu Fan's Tai Xu Sword, they were utterly ineffective.
"His Majesty shall triumph!"
"His Majesty shall triumph!"
Instantly, the people of the Dragon Capital shouted, their voices filled with immense joy. As long as Lu Fan stood, the dynasty would endure, and the people could live their lives as they wished, free from the ravages of war.
The cheers grew ever more powerful. Lu Fan felt the power of national fortune growing stronger, even giving him the illusion that within the Dragon Capital, no one could match him.
"To achieve such a level of accomplishment at such a young age, you are truly worthy of being of the Lu clan!"
The Cang Long Dean sneered, "It is a pity that you will perish here today. Truly, heaven envies talent!"
"My Lu family was annihilated years ago, due to Cang Long Academy. You cannot escape responsibility!"
Lu Fan, holding the Tai Xu Sword, glared at the Cang Long Dean. "Let us settle this today!"
"You are far too naive!"
The Cang Long Dean shook his head and simultaneously slammed his walking stick onto the ground. A powerful force swept towards Lu Fan. Lu Fan drew the Tai Xu Sword and met the attack with his full strength, but he was sent flying back forcefully. In the face of true power, everything else was rendered meaningless.
Witnessing this, the elders' expressions changed drastically. They knew Lu Fan's strength well, but they never imagined that he couldn't even withstand a single blow from the Cang Long Dean.
"Xiao Fan!"
Lin Ke came to his side, her eyes filled with concern. She knew Lu Fan's strength intimately. For Lu Fan to be repelled like this was proof of the Cang Long Dean's power. No one else present could match him.
"I'm fine!"
Lu Fan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his brow furrowed. He himself had not anticipated that the Cang Long Dean's strength would be so formidable, catching him completely off guard.
"Hand over the Tai Xu Sword and the Han Bing Sword, and then commit suicide as atonement!"
The Cang Long Dean smiled, "Perhaps then I can spare them!"
"Cang Long Academy has always been ruthless and unforgiving. How could they possibly do such a thing?" Lu Fan scoffed. "You merely wish for me to surrender, but that is absolutely impossible!"
"I didn't expect you to be so sharp, brat!"
The Cang Long Dean burst into laughter. "But what does it matter? With your strength, you are no match for me. It's like a moth flying into a flame!"
Lu Fan paid no mind to these words, gripping the Tai Xu Sword and preparing to take a gamble. After all, this was their only way out.
"I will fight with you!"
Lin Ke held the Han Bing Sword. "If we are defeated, we shall die for the dynasty together!"
"Xiao Ke..."
Lu Fan's expression became serious. He knew precisely how powerful the Cang Long Dean was. If Lin Ke were to participate, her life would be in grave danger.
Lin Ke's expression was solemn, and she took Lu Fan's hand. "Last time in Cang Qiong Country, we managed to survive. This time will be no different!"
Lu Fan nodded solemnly, gripping the Tai Xu Sword and transforming into a swimming dragon, charging directly into the sky. In an instant, the heavens and earth changed color, and the entire Dragon Capital was filled with the Tai Xu Sword's intent, leaving everyone in awe.
Lin Ke also leaped into the air, the Han Bing Sword in her hand radiating a dazzling light.
Witnessing this scene, the Cang Long Dean was also moved. He had heard that the Five Ancient Clans possessed five divine swords, and if these five swords were combined, they would possess immense power. These two divine swords alone possessed the ability to change the world. If the five divine swords were gathered, they would unleash world-shattering techniques, making them impossible to guard against. Su Dan Novel Network
