Yan Batian was startled by Wang Fan's sudden angry shout.
But he quickly came to his senses and relied on the immense power of his Yan family.
He retorted without backing down, "Who do you think you are! How dare you speak to me, Yan Batian, like that?"
"You're just trying to curry favor with the princess."
Wang Fan took a step forward, instantly releasing the pressure of a demigod realm expert.
A powerful aura swept towards Yan Batian like a surging wave.
Yan Batian felt an invisible force pressing down on him.
It made it difficult for him to breathe, and his legs trembled slightly.
He was both shocked and furious, never expecting that Wang Fan had broken through to such a level.
"You...you dare to lay a hand on me!" Yan Batian shouted fiercely, but his voice betrayed a hint of fear.
Wang Fan snorted coldly and withdrew his oppressive aura. "I will not stoop to your level today, but if you dare to make sarcastic remarks and disrupt the morale of the army again, even if you are the head of the Yan family, I will not let you off easily!"
Everyone was both surprised and impressed when they saw that Wang Fan dared to openly intimidate Yan Batian, and that Yan Batian was in such a sorry state under Wang Fan's pressure.
Lie Yan couldn't help but cheer: "Brother Wang Fan, well done! Yan Batian, it's one thing for you to be arrogant and domineering all the time, but what kind of time is this to be dragging our feet!"
Yan Batian was both angry and annoyed, but dared not speak again.
He glared fiercely at Wang Fan, his curiosity about Wang Fan's strength reaching its peak.
The pressure of Wang Fan's realm that he had just released actually gave him a sense of oppression, as if he were facing a pseudo-god.
Although their auras were completely different, the suppressive force stemming from their different realms was real.
Yan Batian had been stuck at the tenth level for many years, unable to advance any further, while Wang Fan had broken through this barrier.
"How exactly did he break through?"
Yan Batian pondered to himself, "Could it really be as he said, related to the divine status of a false god?"
Once this thought flashes through your mind, it takes root and sprouts quickly, like a seed.
Yan Batian couldn't help but think, what if Wang Fan really had mastered the method of breaking through realms through divine power?
If I could get this secret from Wang Fan, wouldn't the Yan family be able to become the most powerful force on this continent?
But when Yan Batian thought of Wang Fan's ruthless intimidation, he hesitated to act rashly.
But greed and ambition soon took over.
Yan Batian decided to stay and fight against the false god together for the sake of this secret.
He thought that as long as he stayed close to Wang Fan in battle, he might be able to find an opportunity to discover the secret to his breakthrough.
"Hmph, Wang Fan, you just wait. Once this matter is resolved, I'll make you hand over the secret willingly." Yan Batian secretly vowed in his heart, then led the Yan family members back to their original positions.
Wang Fan secretly saw Yan Batian change his mind, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. This was exactly the effect he wanted.
Although Yan Batian is selfish and self-serving, it is undeniable that his strength is still quite considerable.
With the addition of Yan Batian's power, the chances of defeating the false god have increased.
On the other hand, Wang Fan had no interest in paying attention to Yan Batian's thoughts.
He devoted himself wholeheartedly to preparing the plan to resist the false god.
Lie Yan and the others surrounded Wang Fan, discussing the details of the battle with great enthusiasm.
"Brother Wang Fan, where do you think the divine essence of a false god is usually hidden?" Lie Yan asked, frowning.
Wang Fan pondered for a moment and said, "Based on my previous experience fighting against false gods, the location of a godhood is not fixed."
“Some false gods may hide their divine essence in their brow, some in their chest, and some may even have it in their dantian.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
At this moment, a soldier rushed in, knelt on one knee, and anxiously reported: "Your Highness, we have just received news that the vanguard of the false god is less than ten miles away from us!"
The princess's expression instantly turned serious.
She took a deep breath, suppressing her nervousness and worry, and surveyed the crowd with a firm gaze.
He shouted, "Everyone, get ready quickly! Time is of the essence; every minute and every second is crucial!"
"We must ensure that the defenses are in place according to the plan, without the slightest negligence!"
Everyone answered the order in unison, and then scattered like the wind to their respective posts.
Lie Yan nodded vigorously at Wang Fan, then quickly turned around and led the Lie family's men to the designated location in the city.
As he ran, he shouted to boost morale: "Brothers, follow me! We've been training for this moment, and today we'll make sure those false gods never return!"
Wang Fan, along with Hua Nianci, Su Yaqi, Su Yalin, Qin Xiaoxuan, Xiao Meng, and the others, hurried towards the section of the city wall they were responsible for defending.
Climbing the city wall, the various defensive structures before one's eyes are truly awe-inspiring.
The massive cannons were jet black and gleaming, their muzzles pointing majestically out of the city.
The crossbows were neatly arranged, their bolts gleaming with a chilling light.
Huge stones were piled up next to the catapult, ready to be launched.
Looking at these sophisticated defensive facilities, Wang Fan couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder Blazing Fire City has been able to hold out for so many years."
Xiao Meng's eyes lit up as she excitedly ran to a cannon and gently stroked its cold barrel.
Turning to Wang Fan, he said, "Brother, I love this cannon! I'll let those false gods taste the power of cannons in a bit!"
My younger sister, Su Yalin, also came over, her eyes sparkling, and said expectantly, "Yes, yes, it used to be so awesome to see artillery blow the enemy to pieces."
"This time, I'm going to personally control it and give the false god a good beating!"
Wang Fan smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll let you have your fun in a bit."
"But don't be careless. False gods are not so easy to deal with. Be careful and follow orders."
Su Yaqi reminded her from the side, "Yalin, it's fine to like cannons, but you must follow the arrangements and not act on your own to ensure that they are used to their full potential."
Su Yalin stuck out her tongue and said, "Okay, sister, I'll definitely follow your orders."
Qin Xiaoxuan walked over and said, "Operating these cannons requires skill. I'll work with you in a bit, and I'll make sure we can unleash their full power."
Hua Nianci brandished the Ice Dragon Blade in her hand and said with a smile, "You guys focus on making the cannons. I'll keep an eye on the other parts of the city wall and won't let the false god have a chance to get close."
At this moment, the vanguard of the false god outside the city was getting closer and closer.
The eerie light emanating from them cast a sinister glow over the sky.
Wang Fan's expression hardened, and he shouted, "Prepare for battle!"
The women took their positions, their eyes filled with a thirst for battle.
Outside the city, the vanguard of the false god had already arrived not far from Blazing City.
The leader of the false gods frowned as he looked at the rows of heavily fortified defensive structures on the city wall.
He was surrounded by a group of powerful pseudo-god subordinates, all awaiting instructions from this high-ranking official.
