Once outside the Dragon Bone Tomb, Ye Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It's much safer here. At least from what they've observed, apart from people like Alexander who stole treasures from the Dragon Palace and then defected from the dragon race, the rest of the dragons seem to be trapped in a giant cage and will never come out.
Thinking of this, Ye Ling relaxed a little.
"Let's rest for a while, then prepare to leave here and head to the capital to resurrect the God."
However, this trip to the dragons was not entirely fruitless for them; at least they obtained enough materials to revive Manstein.
Although the Huang family is now under official control, with their influence and the numerous seeds of death Ye Ling has sown in the capital, it would be easy for them to quietly find a place to set up the ceremony to resurrect Manstein.
However, after closing her eyes to rest for a moment, Ye Ling felt a strong smell of blood enter her nostrils.
He opened his eyes and saw the person next to him clutching his neck in pain, his eyes filled with terror, his lips opening and closing but unable to utter a single word.
How could they kill his people so quietly right under his nose?
Even though she witnessed it with her own eyes, Ye Ling was still terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.
After seeing the person in front of him clearly, Ye Ling became even more furious:
"It was you?"
"You killed Huang Lintian, didn't you?"
Ye Ling felt heartbroken at the thought of Huang Lintian's death. If Huang Lintian were still alive, he could save a lot of trouble when he returned to the capital.
However, this capable man ultimately died by Xu Fan's sword.
Xu Fan ignored Ye Ling completely, and his sword swept towards Ye Ling's men like a gust of wind.
Upon seeing Xu Fan's sword, the group tried to dodge, but no matter how they moved, Xu Fan's sword remained firmly locked onto them.
“Zheng”.
A soft ringing sound came from the sword, and only Xu Fan and Ye Ling remained standing in the room.
"Xu Fan, you deserve to die!"
Looking at the pile of corpses on the ground, Ye Ling wished she could tear Xu Fan to pieces right then and there.
"Then you can give it a try."
Ye Ling suddenly waved her hand, and a deathly aura tainted with evil howled like a knife as it stabbed towards Xu Fan. However, this level of attack was ultimately not enough for Xu Fan.
Xu Fan swung his sword, and wherever the blade touched, the aura of death seemed to be severed from Ye Ling.
Damn it!
Ye Ling cursed under her breath, looking at Xu Fan warily.
"Now, isn't it my turn?"
As Xu Fan spoke, he thrust his sword forward, charging towards Ye Ling with an unstoppable momentum.
The wind whipped up by the blade was so strong that even before Ye Ling touched the edge, the wind from the blade still stung her face.
"Did you learn the techniques from Zhongnan Mountain?"
Upon seeing the sword shadow clearly, Ye Ling was startled.
He had spent decades in the Zhongnan Mountains, so he was very familiar with all the mysteries of the Zhongnan Mountains.
Based on the information he had, Xu Fan's physical abilities were already exaggerated to an astonishing degree. If he were to receive the same miraculous enhancements from the Zhongnan Mountains, it would be even more incredible.
"You know your stuff."
Ye Ling dared not be careless and threw several Death Seeds at Xu Fan, hoping to use them to block Xu Fan's sword momentum.
However, this was not the first time Xu Fan had seen something like the Death Seed. He changed the blade of his sword and instantly cut the Death Seeds in front of him into several pieces.
"A white rainbow pierces the sun!"
Then the Demon-Slaying Sword condensed into a single point and stabbed towards Ye Ling at an incredible speed.
Upon seeing this sword strike, Ye Ling's pupils were filled with horror.
His fingers flew across Xu Fan's face, attempting to set up a rebirth formation around him to block him.
However, before the formation could be completed, the sound of metal breaking glass came from the air, and Ye Ling's body stiffened.
The formation was broken, and Ye Ling, who set it up, was also affected. His lips twitched, and blood slowly seeped from the corner of his mouth.
"escape!"
After enduring Xu Fan's sword strike, Ye Ling immediately made a judgment in her mind.
Although he was a fanatical follower of Manstein, having mastered a portion of the power of death, he feared death more than anyone else.
However, Xu Fan in front of him carried a deathly power that made him feel a strong threat.
If he were to stab me with his sword, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to escape even if I wanted to.
Xu Fan followed Ye Ling at a leisurely pace. He wasn't in a hurry to make a move; he simply followed Ye Ling slowly.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Ling suddenly turned around and sneered at Xu Fan:
"Kid, you really have patience."
Xu Fan replied calmly, "Are you prepared to die?"
"Prepare to die?"
"It's still uncertain who will live and who will die now."
As he spoke, a massive array, resembling a giant net, instantly enveloped Xu Fan.
Sensing the intense aura of death emanating from above, Xu Fan gave a cold smile.
"Do you think you can trap me with this kind of formation?"
As Xu Fan spoke, he thrust his sword towards the formation.
However, when this sword struck, the entire formation remained completely still, but Xu Fan's body was violently shaken by the impact.
Ye Ling took a long breath and said arrogantly:
"Today I will make you pay with your life for the Tianmu Church!"
As Ye Ling spoke, she waved her hand, and the entire formation seemed to fall into deep darkness.
The blackness silently swallowed everything within the formation, and Xu Fan, standing in the center of the formation, had no way to avoid the influence of this deathly power.
In a daze, Xu Fan felt as if he were weightless, falling continuously in the air, and he couldn't see where the end was at all.
During this process, Xu Fan felt as if the things in his mind were gradually disappearing, and one by one, the past events were flowing away from his mind as he fell.
When the fall finally stopped, Xu Fan looked at the three divine artifacts standing in front of him, his eyes filled with curiosity.
"What are these iron contraptions?"
After watching for a while, Xu Fan seemed to get a little bored and stood up from the ground.
However, shouts came from afar:
"Xu Fan, Xu Fan, where are you?"
Xu Fan curiously looked in the direction of the sound, but all he saw was darkness.
