Divine King of Honour-Chapter 699: Killing Fang Tianlun

"Xu Nian, I didn't expect you to actually dare to come out. I thought you might be too scared to show up," Qi Lei said with narrowed eyes, immediately followed by a sneering remark.

Xu Nian responded with a smile upon hearing Qi Lei's words.

"As I recall, you were the one who got badly beaten last time. Why would I be afraid to come?" Xu Nian retorted with a cold laugh.

Previously, it was indeed Qi Lei who had been beaten miserably by Xuan Hong.

Seeing how arrogant Qi Lei was now,

Xu Nian felt amused.

However, amidst his amusement, Xu Nian's heart was also filled with killing intent.

He had heard everything Qi Lei had said about Xu Xin and Leng Yanran through the power of his Spiritual Sense.

Qi Lei really didn't know whether to live or die. Today, he simply couldn't be allowed to leave the Imperial Capital alive.

"Hmph, last time I was defeated by him, not by you. If it were a one-on-one fight, you wouldn't stand a chance against me. What right do you have to be so arrogant in front of me?" Qi Lei huffed with great dissatisfaction.

In his view, Xu Nian's strength wasn't even on par with a Seven or Eight Star Battle Emperor.

As a Supreme Battle Emperor, killing Xu Nian would be a piece of cake for him.

"So, you're not convinced?" Xu Nian said with a light chuckle.

"Of course, not to mention me, even Brother Fang by my side might be more than a match for you," Qi Lei retorted with a cold huff.

His gaze toward Xu Nian grew even more contemptuous.

Xu Nian responded with a faint smile,

and turned to look at Fang Tianlun.

"It seems the lesson you received from the Artifact Refining Sect during our last encounter at the Fang Family wasn't enough, daring to come and trouble me again," Xu Nian said to Fang Tianlun with a light laugh.

Fang Tianlun, originally in an uncertain mood, now seemed influenced by Qi Lei's words,

and looked at Xu Nian with even more brazen eyes.

"Xu Nian, last time you killed a Battle Emperor from our Fang Family. Today will be your day of death. You probably don't know yet, but Emperor Tianhen has already ordered the activation of the Imperial Capital Array. Once the formation starts, your death is certain," Fang Tianlun said angrily.

The members of the Divine River Palace showed surprised expressions upon hearing this.

They looked toward Xu Nian with concern in their eyes.

If what this Fang Family powerhouse said was true,

Then Xu Nian really might be in danger.

After all, the power of the Imperial Capital Array was extremely great.

Once inside the boundaries of the Imperial Capital, escape would be truly impossible.

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian just laughed.

"Whether I die or not, I don't know. But what I do know is that your Fang Family will soon be completely wiped out from this continent," Xu Nian said with a smile.

"What?" Fang Tianlun was shocked, a bad feeling surging in his heart.

Suddenly, something seemed to dawn on Fang Tianlun, and he turned to Xu Nian and scoffed, "Hmph, don't think you can fool me. Our Fang Family has a Three-star Battle Emperor at its helm, and on top of that, we have four more Battle Saint Level powerhouses. What can you possibly have to wipe out our Fang Family?"

Xu Nian just smiled and continued, "A Three-star Battle Emperor? I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. I have already commanded a Nine-star Battle Emperor to lead seven Battle Emperors, thirty Battle Saints, and three hundred Battle Kings to assault your Fang Family. Do you think your Fang Family can withstand that?"

Fang Tianlun's face went pale in an instant.

Xu Nian had actually dispatched so many powerful warriors.

Such a formidable force, let alone wiping out a Fang Family,

could easily sweep through all four of the Great Families in a very short time.

If the Fang Family were to be destroyed, would he not become the greatest sinner in its history?

"Xu Nian, I will kill you!"

All of a sudden, Fang Tianlun's eyes turned blood red, and a Long Spear appeared in his hands, which he thrust directly at Xu Nian.

As he thrust, Fang Tianlun's spear gleamed with a strong Gold Attribute fluctuation.

Mixed Element Piercing!

This was the Upper-class Profound Argumentation of the Gold Attribute that Fang Tianlun had mastered—Mixed Element Piercing.

However, it seemed that his understanding of it was not particularly profound.

"Just teetering at the threshold of Profound Argumentation."

With a thrust of the long spear, it seemed as if it could pierce through the void. freewēbnoveℓ.com

However, when Xu Nian saw this thrust, a hint of a light smile appeared in his eyes.

He gripped the Kunlun Hammer in his hand and directly slammed it against Fang Tianlun's long spear with a fierce blow.

"Clang!"

The Kunlun Hammer struck the tip of the long spear, producing an incredibly shocking sound.

Then everyone saw the long spear in Fang Tianlun's hand explode instantly.

"Poof!"

Fang Tianlun spat out fresh blood, his body flying backward.

Xu Nian, however, let out a cold laugh.

"Go!"

He waved his sleeve.

A sword transformed into a golden flash and instantly streaked out.

"Spurt!"

Before Fang Tianlun could even react, the sword pierced through his forehead.

His whole body, along with the sword, flew out and eventually was pinned to a distant stone pillar.

The spectators from the Divine River Palace were utterly stunned.

Although they had heard about Xu Nian's entry into Emperor Level and how formidable his strength was,

when Xu Nian left, he was still only at Holy Level.

Now in just a short span of half a year, he was easily slaughtering even a Seven Stars Battle Emperor.

Such a rate of growth was indeed terrifying.

Xu Xin and Leng Yanran both revealed surprised expressions.

They had not expected Xu Nian's strength to have reached such a level.

Qi Lei, standing nearby, also had a grave expression.

Clearly, he hadn't anticipated that Xu Nian would so easily slay Fang Tianlun.

"Tch, you even had to use a Sword Array, kid, you really are regressing more and more in your cultivation."

On the other hand, Xuan Hong mocked him with his words,

obviously disdainful of Xu Nian's performance.

Xu Nian responded with a wry smile.

He waved his sleeve.

And retracted the sharp sword, turning his head toward Qi Lei.

"Just now you said I was acting arrogant because I had Xuan Hong's help, how about this then—you and I have a one-on-one fight to see who is really the more powerful?" Xu Nian said with a smile looking at Qi Lei.

His tone was thick with provocation.

Qi Lei's eyes blazed with fury.

He had just claimed that Xu Nian's own strength was not up to par.

Now Xu Nian was challenging him.

It was an outright slap to his face.

"How about it, don't have the guts?" Xu Nian said with a smile.

"Hmph, what's there to fear? I'm just worried that after I decide to kill you, this person by your side will intervene, then wouldn't I have fought in vain?" Qi Lei retorted coldly.

Xu Nian chuckled, replying, "Rest assured, since I've spoken, I won't let anyone interfere. If I truly am not your match, I am willing to die; but if you are not my match, then I will make you pay a painful price for today's actions."

Toward the end, Xu Nian's eyes turned chillier.

"Hahaha, since you're seeking death, Xu Nian, don't blame me. Do you really think that after killing Fang Tianlun, you are a match for me, Qi Lei? Today, I will let you see and know the difference between a Supreme Battle Emperor and an ordinary one." Qi Lei laughed heartily.

At once, a surge of white lightning welled up on his body.

With the outbreak of this lightning, his aura became incredibly wild.

Xu Nian merely chuckled, his hand gripping the Kunlun Hammer tightening.
