Supreme Cultivation Master

At this moment, the Great Commander struck out at full speed, displaying his Postnatal prowess in all its glory. Each move was piercingly sharp. Such strength was enough to match the abilities of either Tian Can or Di Que alone. He was indeed formidable—after all, he was a commander.

Luo Yazhi threw her two flying knives, but he deflected them all. He then struck her with a palm, and although she resisted, she was still sent flying backward, coughing up blood profusely. As beautiful as she was, her grievous injuries gave her a kind of tragic allure. She immediately scrambled to her feet and quickly retreated.

"Thinking of escaping? Impossible! Chase her down!" a voice roared.

A group of people surged forward in pursuit, quickly closing in on Luo Yazhi. What Ye Fan hadn’t anticipated was that Luo Yazhi was escaping in the direction of his hiding spot.

There was no other choice. He could no longer hide. Could I, the mighty King of Heaven, possibly be afraid of these clowns? Thus, he leaped out from the bushes.

Not good, an ambush! the Great Commander thought with a sense of foreboding.

However, at that moment, Ye Fan’s fists thundered out. In an instant, he pierced through the bodies of two men, who fell dead on the spot. As Ye Fan stood his ground, the faltering Luo Yazhi collapsed into his arms.

Luo Yazhi looked up and saw it was the King of Heaven. She never expected him to arrive at such a time. It was impossible for her not to be moved. Of course, it had to be admitted that Ye Fan hadn’t appeared to save her. He was furious that these people had dared to target him. It was an offense he could never forgive.

"It’s you!" Luo Yazhi said weakly.

"That’s right, it’s me," Ye Fan replied, setting her down. Even a woman as cunning as Luo Yazhi appeared foolishly naive at this moment.

The Great Commander, with several of his men, surrounded Ye Fan. "So you’re the King of Heaven!"

"That’s right. Now that you all know who I am, none of you will leave here alive tonight!" His words were filled with domineering authority.

"King of Heaven, don’t be so arrogant! It seems the Alice Demoness has truly sided with you!" the Great Commander rebuked coldly.

Ye Fan retorted, "Whether she has or not is none of your business. Weren’t you looking for me? I’m here now. What can you do?"

His words made the men fume with rage. The Great Commander sneered, "Do you think we’re really afraid of you? Set up the Array!"

Including him, the seven men formed an assassination Array. The Great Commander believed that if his men attacked chaotically, they would be no match for the King of Heaven. However, if they stuck to the plan, they might just stand a chance. It was a pity that Ye Fan had already killed two of them. Otherwise, the formation would have been even more perfect.

Ye Fan said disdainfully, "It seems your Tianji Pavilion is truly audacious. Trying to take me down with just a few pieces of trash like you? You’re deluding yourselves!"

"That may not be the case. King of Heaven, take this!"

The Great Commander attacked immediately, with the remaining men charging at Ye Fan from various directions. Ye Fan countered the commander’s killing move head-on, but others were attacking from his rear and flanks, leaving him with nowhere to retreat.

Drawing my attention to the front, blocking my escape to the sides, and striking with lethal intent from behind... This group’s killing formation is quite sophisticated. Ye Fan thought coldly. Nevertheless, he was not afraid.

"Break!" Ye Fan roared, and a powerful force burst forth from his body, sending several men flying.

Seizing this opportunity, two attackers from the outermost echelon assaulted him from the left and right.

"Courting death!"

Ye Fan threw a punch at the man on his right. Unable to dodge, the man was beaten to death with that single blow. Ye Fan then spun around and struck the head of the man on his left with both palms, causing it to burst instantly. The strength of the second echelon was completely dismantled.

Ye Fan didn’t stop. He knew that to completely break the Array, he had to take the offensive. Only by seizing the initiative could he achieve a surprise victory.

"Great Commander, you’re next."

Ye Fan charged forward, heading straight for the Great Commander.

"What?"

The Great Commander had just regained his balance when Ye Fan launched his attack. As a Postnatal Martial Artist, he was flustered but still managed to defend himself. He drew his weapon, hoping to hold off Ye Fan and create an opportunity for the others. But at that very moment, Ye Fan landed a palm strike on his chest.

The Great Commander was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground. Before he could react, Ye Fan’s foot descended in a vicious kick, shattering his skull.

Is this his true strength? Luo Yazhi gasped. She hadn’t lasted more than three moves against the Great Commander, yet the commander couldn’t withstand a single blow from Ye Fan. The gap between her and Ye Fan was clearly wider than just a single Great Commander.

The remaining few felt a chill crawl down their spines. Without the Great Commander’s leadership, they threw out their combat chains to bind Ye Fan, then pulled from different directions, attempting to tear him apart. However, they still underestimated his strength. It could only be said that they were being far too naive.

"Is this all you’ve got?" Ye Fan scoffed.

BANG!

With a surge of strength, he snapped the alloy chains instantly. The men stumbled backward, tumbling away chaotically. Ye Fan dispatched three of them with a single punch each. Seeing this, the last two turned and fled.

But how could Ye Fan let them escape? Pushing his speed beyond its limits, he caught up to them in an instant. A single slap to the top of each of their heads, and they fell, blood spraying from the wounds.

Ye Fan had wiped out the entire squad. His strength was, without a doubt, overwhelming.

He walked over to Luo Yazhi and asked, "Are you alright?"

"I’m not dead yet. Thanks," replied Luo Yazhi coquettishly.

Ye Fan was surprised that she was still in the mood to be flirtatious at a time like this, but he truly didn’t understand the minds of women. "As long as you’re not dead. Let’s go," he said.

He had just helped her up when three people arrived. These three were from Huaxia Sword. Huaxia Sword was an organization that protected Hua Xia’s security, serving as a formidable counterforce to the supernatural organizations of the Western World.

Ye Fan paused, wondering why they had come, but Luo Yazhi became exceedingly anxious, as if their arrival had something to do with her. The three newcomers immediately surrounded them.

The leader spoke. "I am Sword Comes One, captain of the Huaxia Sword Fifth Squad. King of Heaven, we must take this woman with us!" They had no real names, only codenames.

Ye Fan hadn’t expected them to demand he hand over Luo Yazhi, and she became even more panicked.

"I need a reason," Ye Fan asked. "Why do you want to take her?"

Sword Comes One replied, "Because she is a member of the Tianji Pavilion, our mortal enemy. Therefore, we must take her!"

"What if I refuse?" Ye Fan stated calmly.

The faces of the three men turned icy. Sword Comes One continued, "King of Heaven, you are strong, but this is the Divine Land. We can overlook the fact that you killed those men just now, but this woman must be handed over to us!"

They were already aware of Ye Fan’s identity and had been secretly watching him in Jiangning.

Ye Fan said, "They were from the Tianji Pavilion. Was I wrong to kill them? Besides, she’s just a weak woman. I guarantee that she won’t do anything to threaten the Divine Land in the future, so don’t make things difficult for her."
