Chapter 1629 - Seventh-Level Immortal Platform Realm
“Chen Fan, show yourself!”
The shout rang through the air, sharp and domineering. There was no mistaking it. The target was Chen Fan.
“Damn it, it’s that old bastard. An administrative elder who sold himself to the Golden Jade Pavilion and now runs errands like a dog,” said Ling Fei, his expression changing drastically.
“Chen Fan, quickly leave. That’s Hao Liantu, an administrative elder of the Heavenly Punishment Hall. He was assigned to monitor criminal activity within the prison, but he defected long ago and became the Golden Jade Pavilion’s chief authority here. He is a Half-step Immortal King. You cannot fight him. Run! Immediately!”
Before the warning had faded, an overwhelming pressure descended from the heavens, crushing down on the city like an invisible mountain. It felt disturbingly similar to the suffocating aura Chen Fan had once experienced from Jiang Tianyi.
While Chen Fan could take on a ninth-level Immortal Platform realm expert, he was no match for a Half-step Immortal King.
The source of that aura locked onto him instantly, as if guided by an unseen force, streaking straight toward Chen Fan and Ling Fei.
Ling Fei’s expression darkened slightly, but he didn’t move at all. As the city’s garrison commander, his position itself was a shield. Even Hao Liantu would not dare to act against him openly. When strength fell short, status could still serve as protection.
Chen Fan didn’t hesitate at all and turned into a stream of golden light, speeding off.
The moment he fled, a large hand tore through the sky, reaching for Chen Fan. Just as it was about to seize him, Chen Fan vanished, the golden radiance dissolving into nothing.
A heartbeat later, he reappeared a thousand meters away. The Wings of Rain Dragon flared open as his figure blinked in and out, resembling instantaneous teleportation.
An elder dressed in elegant robes appeared in the sky, visibly surprised that he had failed to capture Chen Fan.
