Before, Luo Tianhong couldn't understand why Wang Zhan's power had increased so rapidly. But after thinking it through, she imdiately understood. Wang Zhan must have encountered so strange circumstances; only this could explain his rapid increase in power.
anwhile, Luo Tianhong spoke again, "According to my knowledge, there are plenty of good things in these ruins, and the area is vast. So, as long as you're willing to go, I'll accompany you. Of course, if you don't want to, I'll have to find other partners. What if I find a powerful demonic beast, who then enters the ruins, increases its cultivation, and takes an interest in Tianxiong City? What then?"
"So, you're threatening ?" Wang Zhan asked, glaring at her.
Luo Tianhong replied with a laugh, "You can interpret it as a threat. After all, you have these three burdens with you. Although I know your strength is good, you're nowhere near
now. Even if we fought and you managed to injure , what difference would it make? I could still take your life, and these burdens would then be useless. I'd kill them instantly, and the people in Tianxiong City wouldn't be spared either."
"What the hell are you trying to say? Say it one more ti, and I swear I'll kill you right now!" Xiang Tian, furious, strode up to Luo Tianhong, clenching his fists as if ready to attack at any mont.
However, a disdainful smile played on Luo Tianhong's lips. She shook her head and said, "I advise you to get lost. I'm in a good mood today and don't feel like killing anyone. To think you can challenge
with your ager abilities—you're seriously overestimating yourself."
"Say that again?" Xiang Tian's voice was chilling, his anger palpable. "Even if I'm no match for you, I'm not afraid of dying! Even if I die, I'll knock out your two front teeth!"
HEH. Luo Tianhong scoffed. She walked step by step towards Xiang Tian, then suddenly, her hand shot out, grabbing his neck and lifting him clean off the ground.
Xiang Tian's feet dangled, kicking fruitlessly, as his breathing beca increasingly labored.
Luo Xue and Han Xue quickly ran to Xiang Tian's side. But before they could utter a word, Luo Tianhong looked at them coldly and spat, "Scram!"
That single word, yet it thrumd with boundless Dignity. Luo Xue's expression turned very grim, and Han Xue, terrified, instinctively retreated several steps. Although she didn't know exactly how formidable the woman before them was, she could still tell from Wang Zhan's gaze that this woman was not to be trifled with.
"Alright, that's enough," Wang Zhan said coldly, his gaze fixed on Luo Tianhong.
It had to be said, Wang Zhan's words did have so effect. Luo Tianhong pursed her lips into a smile, relaxed her grip, and casually tossed Xiang Tian aside.
Luo Tianhong walked over to Wang Zhan's side and asked, "So, are you ready to accompany
to the ruins to check things out now?"
Wang Zhan frowned slightly. He knew, of course, that Luo Tianhong harbored ill intentions. Entering the ruins would likely lead to all sorts of unexpected dangers. However, with his companions effectively hostages under Luo Tianhong's control, he had little choice but to agree, even if he didn't want to. These three burdens were truly exasperating.
"Fine. Since you want to go in, I'll accompany you," Wang Zhan said confidently. "But rest assured, if you dare try anything funny with , I definitely won't let you off easy." After all, he still had a trump card. Even if Luo Tianhong tried to kill him, he might not be able to take her down with him, but he could certainly inflict heavy injuries on her.
Luo Tianhong smiled with satisfaction. "Alright. In that case, shall we depart?"
"Wait!" Just as Luo Tianhong was about to leave, Wang Zhan interjected, "You must first deal with Ju Tian'en's injuries. Otherwise, I absolutely will not leave Tianxiong City with you. After all, once we leave, Tianxiong City will lose its protection."
Currently, Wang Zhan was the pillar of Tianxiong City. If he left, no one could fend off the demonic beasts that might appear at any mont. Ju Tian'en was already in imminent danger; even if he used every ounce of his strength, he likely couldn't handle those powerful beasts anymore. He was a spent force, which was indeed very worrying.
Luo Tianhong paused, a flicker of surprise in her eyes. "I don't know where you get your confidence. While I was able to injure him, who told you I could heal him?"
"Well then, we have nothing more to discuss. You can go to the ruins by yourself," Wang Zhan stated coldly, turning away. "Alright, you're not welco here anymore. Leave quickly."
"Don't forget what I just said," Luo Tianhong frowned slightly, her gaze falling on Xiang Tian and the others beside Wang Zhan. Clearly, she was well aware of Wang Zhan's relationship with Xiang Tian and his companions. She was confident that if she used them to threaten Wang Zhan, he would still yield.
This ti, however, she was disappointed. Wang Zhan rely shrugged nonchalantly and said, "Actually, I was already planning to send them back to the fifth war zone. During the last major battle, they disobeyed my orders and snuck out of the city, nearly causing a catastrophe. I don't intend to keep them by my side any longer. If you were to kill them for
here, it would actually save
a lot of trouble, and quite a few unnecessary detours. I might even have to thank you properly for it."
"Your uncle!" Luo Tianhong gritted her teeth, stomped her foot fiercely in anger, and let out a curse.
Wang Zhan, however, chuckled. "My apologies, I don't even know where my uncle is. If you could help
find him, I'd really have to thank you." He paused, then added thoughtfully, "Oh, but on that note, I seem to recall my father was an only child. So, where would this uncle of mine co from?"
Hearing Wang Zhan continue to ramble mockingly, Luo Tianhong's anger flared. She clenched her fists, and instantly, pillars of energy materialized out of thin air, hurtling towards Wang Zhan.
Wang Zhan's expression changed. He swiftly brought out his Deep Fire Blade, raising it defensively before him. A massive curtain of fire instantly appeared.
In a flash, the light screen and the fire curtain collided. A huge ripple of energy emanated from around their bodies. The roof of the hotel was instantly blown off. Wang Zhan and Luo Tianhong soared rapidly into the Sky.
The inhabitants of Tianxiong City quickly noticed the two figures in the Sky and began to discuss animatedly.
"Is that Mr. Wang in the Sky?"
"It really looks like Mr. Wang! But who is that person fighting him? Their strength is so formidable, they might even be on par with Mr. Wang!"
"Who knows? Probably just so random nobody."
The crowd exchanged glances, their expressions gradually turning grim as they realized Wang Zhan was actually starting to lose ground.
"Wang Zhan is so powerful, but I wonder if he's truly a match for this opponent."
"Perhaps he still has a trump card. After all, even a level 7 Beast isn't a match for Wang Zhan."
"Besides, don't you rember? There aren't any truly strong human experts near Tianxiong City. So how could this young girl, who doesn't look very old, possibly be Mr. Wang's opponent? Or perhaps Mr. Wang is being chivalrous and holding back, which is why he seems to be losing. But that doesn't an he can't defeat this girl."
Evidently, the crowd held Wang Zhan in extrely high esteem. To them, Wang Zhan was their pillar. If not for him, they would have lost their hos long ago, and Tianxiong City would have been reduced to ruins. Thus, in their hearts, Wang Zhan was an undisputed god.
"This won't do! We have to inform the City Lord about what's happening here, quickly!" soone in the crowd urged.
The others around him nodded in agreent.
"Right! If Mr. Wang really can't defeat this person, then the City Lord must co to help fight!"
"With the two of them joining forces, surely no one in this world could stand against them!"
"Then what are you still standing here for? Hurry up and inform the City Lord!"
In an instant, that person had already rushed off into the distance.
anwhile, Xiang Tian and the others quickly erged from their hotel room. Watching Wang Zhan and Luo Tianhong battling in mid-air, a grim expression settled on their faces. If this fight continued, Wang Zhan would certainly not co out on top. After all, they were acutely aware of Luo Tianhong's terrifying strength.
"I really don't know if Brother Wang will be her opponent," Luo Xue said gravely, her eyes filled with worry. "If Brother Wang is defeated, what will happen to everyone in Tianxiong City? Knowing Luo Tianhong's personality, she would surely slaughter them all, wouldn't she?"
Beside her, Xiang Tian clenched his fists tightly. He wanted to rush forward and help several tis, but he was keenly aware of his own limitations. What good would it do even if he did? He was no match for Wang Zhan, let alone Luo Tianhong. He would likely be defeated in a single move.
Han Xue looked at the two of them and hurriedly asked, "Who is that an girl, anyway?"
"Just rember that she's an extrely terrifying person," Xiang Tian replied coldly. "From now on, if you see her, make sure to keep your distance from her imdiately." They held no favorable impression of Luo Tianhong.
Han Xue nodded. "Okay, don't worry. I'll definitely ignore that an girl."
At that mont, a loud BANG echoed from the Sky. Wang Zhan was sent flying backward.
"Wang Zhan, is that all the skill you've got?"
