"Let's begin!"Elder Ju said, a little excited. Of course, he just wanted to test Zhang Fan's true strength.
Then he could report back and be done with it.
He really didn't want to stay here any longer than necessary.
Honestly, if his identity hadn't been exposed and Zhang Fan hadn't shown the token, all this trouble could've been avoided.
They could've tested his strength ages ago.
And left already.
"Boom..." Seeing Elder Ju speak, Zhang Fan activated Phantom Demon Step with a thought. Instantly, it exploded forth, forming a black energy dome that enveloped a 300-meter radius.
Elder Ju froze.
"Clang..."Zhang Fan's second soul ring lit up, and the Heaven's Bane Sword in his hand began to emit a chilling aura, dropping the surrounding temperature abruptly.
[Yu Dagang sat beneath the Pope's Hall throne and picked up a cup of tea to drink.](Seven characters can be modified.)
…
"Boom..."Elder Ju's expression shifted slightly, not expecting this kid's strength to be so terrifying.
Everyone dropped to their knees.
Especially since someone had puked a pile of S on the ground. The stench made him frown. With a wave of his hand—"Boom..."—he flung the pile of S away instantly.
"Clang..."Zhang Fan suddenly slashed his sword forward.
Please keep up with the updates! Vote for recommendations!!Once this is done, I can give a proper report.
But the next moment, a wave of blazing fire surged toward him with overwhelming force. The terrifying sword energy sliced toward him, dyeing the sky red.
The whole scene was disgustingly grotesque.
Elder Ju realized that everything this kid had done was a trap. When he used that domain-like move, Elder Ju was briefly stunned.
He really hadn't expected this.
"This is the Pope's Hall! Unauthorized personnel, get out—or be killed without mercy!"
Everyone saw Elder Ju charging in with overwhelming force.
"Boom..." A terrifying surge of soul power burst from the mountain.
Everyone froze, then dropped to one knee: "Greetings, Elder!"
More puke. A whole pile of S.
He immediately changed the word "tea" to "shit."
"Huff, huff..."
After all, in his heart now, he only had Wu Chun.
He hadn't expected this punk to turn the tide like that. It left him utterly speechless.
Behind the Pope's Hall—
"Ugh..."Yu Dagang froze, shocked that a cup of tea had somehow turned into… whatever that crap was.
"What the hell!"Elder Ju felt the terrifying force of that kid's sword."Boom..." A flaming sword slash sent him flying backward.
Ghost Douluo thought Elder Ju, having been blasted away, would get pissed and retaliate harshly.
Chen Xin and Dugu Bo were ready to step in, but surprisingly, Elder Ju wasn't mad and didn't retaliate.
"Whoosh whoosh..." Countless flower petals formed a shield behind him.
They were all about to act but were shocked that the guy didn't even fight back.
And Elder Ju ended up frozen into an ice sculpture.
"Ugh..." An unbearable heat surged toward him, changing his expression—he realized his body couldn't move at all.
Elder Ju lay embedded in the mountain, face dark as ink. He hadn't expected this brat to be such a monster.
Yu Dagang, behind him, looked absolutely disgusting in his eyes.
Still, Zhang Fan's sword came down like lightning.
It became the centerpiece of the whole scene.
"Whoosh..."Elder Ju's expression shifted. He activated his seventh soul skill: Exotic Flower, condensing a soul clone behind him."Boom..." But the clone was instantly sliced in half, then ignited and turned to ashes.
Yu Dagang sat beneath the Pope's Hall throne and took a sip of tea-shit.
Zhang Fan was startled. He didn't expect the system to trigger even from that far away. It made him laugh—he really hadn't seen that coming.
He was speechless.
Wherever Zhang Fan passed, everything was frozen solid.
The Hall Guards stared seriously at the token in the hands of a plain-looking middle-aged woman.
But in the next moment, he had to unleash his full strength just to shatter the ice imprisoning him, thinking he could strike back.
Even using his seventh soul skill for defense, he was still sent flying.
"Ugh..." Everyone was shocked. They hadn't expected the power of that attack to be so terrifying.
A thick layer of frost coated the ground.
He stood there like a peerless icy sword.
Still, Elder Ju had held back. He remembered that this kid was someone the Pope herself valued greatly.
"Take you to see the Pope,"Yu Dagang said coldly.
Still, his clothes had been burned with several holes, and he looked pretty battered.
Clearly, he knew the Pope valued this kid and didn't dare lay a hand on him.
By the time he realized it, it was already too late.
The evil aura exploded out, catching Elder Ju off guard.
"Whoosh..."Ning Fengzhi brought Sword Douluo to stand beside Zhang Fan and the others.
"Ding, storyline modification mission triggered."
Very quickly, in the council chamber of the Pope's Hall, Yu Dagang sat on the chair.
Spirit Hall.
The temperature dropped drastically.
In the shadows, even Ghost Douluo backed away.
"This brat... he's way too ruthless!"Elder Ju had nearly unleashed his full soul power in retaliation just moments ago.
Bibi Dong also walked in from the side, expression cold. She had absolutely no interest in Yu Dagang anymore. To her, he meant nothing—no feelings left at all.
That stench… definitely wasn't tea.
Even Ning Fengzhi was starting to feel sick.
Suddenly, all the cold air condensed around Zhang Fan's Heaven's Bane Sword, radiating an icy blue glow.
The sword in his hand exuded extreme cold.
…
He figured Elder Ju was pissed, but he himself had no intention of continuing."Alright, you lose."
Dust billowed everywhere.
A simple-robed young master entered the city and arrived at Spirit Hall's highest authority—the Pope's Hall.
"Hmm?"Elder Ju frowned. Something was off. How did this kid's sword martial spirit change from lightning to ice? He was puzzled—the kid's attacks were bizarre.
Even though it was only for a moment…
Maybe it had to do with the Pope's token he held.
Two silver-armored Hall Guards blocked the young master's path. A hundred guards raised their swords simultaneously. The Knight Commander shouted:
"Bang..." A loud explosion. Dirt sprayed from the mountainside.
He retched violently, vomiting uncontrollably.
His speed—so fast—he flashed past the stunned Elder Ju in a second.
Half the ice around him was instantly melted.
"Ugh..." No one expected Elder Ju to leave so quickly.
"Whoosh..."Elder Ju soared into the sky, waved his hand, and all the white-robed figures retreated.
It made everyone's heart race.
"Whoosh..."Elder Ju rocketed upward, flying behind Wu Chun. Of course, by now he'd already wiped the blood from his mouth inside the mountain.
"Ding, plot modification successful. Major deviation. Penalty: 30 Modification Points."
"Clang..." He slashed out a mighty sword strike, sending a blade of light shooting forth.
"Stop right there."
Still, he was sent flying back into the mountain by the blow.
He had suppressed himself to level 74, yet was instantly defeated.
