If we can capture Lu Fan and take him back for a thorough study, I wouldn't care even if ten Ye Chuns died.

This kid's strange resurrection ability is definitely invaluable and will surely bring him more benefits.

With that thought in mind, Ye Anzhen exerted force with his feet again and continued the pursuit.

Behind the two, all the other pursuers from the Thunder Bureau were completely left behind, and even Judge Lan and Judge Duan could not keep up.

They could no longer see the backs of the two people in front of them, and could only continue their pursuit by following the marks left by Ye Anzhen.

Lu Fan's figure darted through the rain, quickly rushing into the pink mist ahead.

Ye Anzhen, who was in pursuit, didn't think much and plunged in as well.

When it comes to resistance to poison, he believed he was no less capable than the runaway kid in front of him.

After continuing the pursuit for a while, Ye Anzhen was surprised to find that Lu Fan, who had been running away, suddenly stood there motionless.

His face lit up with joy. Holding the iron nail, he charged forward like a tiger pouncing on its prey, shouting:

"Lu Fan, prepare to die!"

As the pink mist in front of him was dispersed by Ye Anzhen's powerful aura, the dazzling holy light above shone on his face.

Just as Ye Anzhen was about to attack Lu Fan, he unconsciously raised his hand to shield his eyes from the blinding light, and only then did he notice the situation on the scene.

There were so many people around.

The pink mist had concealed everyone's energy fluctuations, and since he was focused solely on locking onto and pursuing Lu Fan, he completely failed to notice the anomaly within the mist.

Noticing something was amiss, Ye Anzhen looked up and saw Antonio descending from the sky like an angel, his wings shining with holy light.

"Outsiders!?"

Ye Anzhen frowned, somewhat incredulous.

How could any outsider dare to cause trouble within the territory of Zhongzhou?

Below Antonio lay a jumble of fallen Central Continent Awakeners.

Among the injured Awakened were many people wearing Central State Military uniforms, and even some from the Thunder Bureau.

Meanwhile, from the direction of the distant high platform, there seemed to be energy fluctuations from countless awakened beings.

At this moment, Ye Anzhen felt as if he had stumbled into something extremely troublesome.

But when he followed the gaze of the foreigner, he saw something that filled him with ecstatic joy.

"Dragon Vein!"

Upon seeing the giant fat dragon, Ye Anzhen almost shouted out in excitement.

He finally understood why so many awakened beings had gathered here.

Lu Fan, who was standing still, was also shocked by the confrontation between the fat dragon and Antonio.

"A dragon?" Lu Fan could hardly believe his eyes.

He had seen all sorts of strange beasts in the lab, but in the end, most of them were just mutated and evolved animals.

But today, a dragon that only existed in legends actually appeared in front of him, which simply broke through the limits of Lu Fan's cognition.

Lu Fan snapped out of his shock and glanced towards the distant observation deck.

He never expected Li Yu to appear in a place like this.

At the same time, everyone on the swamp turned their gazes to the two uninvited guests who had suddenly barged into the battlefield.

No one would have expected that someone else would arrive so rashly at such a critical moment.

However, judging from their shocked expressions, they seemed unaware that this was the place where the dragon vein rose.

"The dragon veins of Central Plains must not be allowed to be touched by foreign tribes!"

Ye Anzhen suddenly roared, and the nail in his hand suddenly turned into a cold light and shot towards Antonio.

He actually temporarily abandoned his pursuit of Lu Fan and instead attacked the outsiders!

In Ye Anzhen's view, among the many awakened individuals present, only Antonio still possessed combat power.

Moreover, it seems that Antonio is still fighting against the Dragon Vein, and the Dragon Vein has not risen.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime plan!

Compared to the dragon vein before him, what was Lu Fan?

"clang!"

Antonio's holy light barrier suddenly cracked, and he was only saved from harm thanks to the automatic protection of the second layer of angel wings.

Sensing the threat, Antonio frowned slightly and looked at the newly appeared Ye Anzhen:

"An Awakened One beyond the ninth rank?"

It should be noted that awakened individuals with this level of strength have already broken through their limits and generally would not attempt to seize the dragon vein.

This is not only because the improvement that high-level awakened individuals can obtain from the Dragon Vein is extremely limited, but also because the Dragon Vein rarely chooses high-level awakened individuals for its inheritance.

This tacit rule is universally recognized, not only in Central China, but also in their own papacy.

Most high-level awakened individuals still choose to leave the opportunities to the younger generation of their own families, while they are more responsible for overseeing things.

Unexpectedly, he encountered a high-level awakened individual in Zhongzhou who wanted to compete for the Dragon Vein.

However, Antonio, who has become one of the twelve Holy Thrones, is clearly not afraid of the powerful Ye Anzhen.

Before Antonio could think any further, the nail that had just been intercepted by the Angel Wings suddenly exploded right in front of him.

"Nine Heavens Thunder Prison!"

The lightning on the nail instantly transformed into a vast net of lightning.

Ye Anzhen went all out, unleashing his killing move the moment they met, intending to kill this outsider with a single blow.

Just as the lightning was about to engulf Antonio—

"Phew!"

The two white dragons on Antonio's wings spewed holy light, blocking all the lightning.

"What?!" Ye Anzhen's pupils shrank, a look of shock flashing in his eyes.

He looked at the majestic, two-winged white dragon behind Antonio.
