Dragon Martial Sovereign

Dongfang Bai saw that Lin Fan did not speak and asked again, "Why aren't you speaking?"

Lin Fan said, "I have nothing more to say. My stance remains as before: Lay down the Guiyun Token in your hand and leave immediately. As you said just now, we have no grudges or enmities. Unless absolutely necessary, I do not wish to kill you."

"Hmm?"

Annoyed, Dongfang Bai furrowed his brows and asked, "At this point, you still want my Guiyun Token?"

Lin Fan nodded earnestly and said, "I never give up on things I set my sights on."

"Hmph!"

Dongfang Bai grew angry as well. He had already given Lin Fan face earlier, yet Lin Fan had not returned the favor, so Dongfang Bai was furious, thinking to himself, "Hmph, does he really think I, Dongfang Bai, am a pushover? Earlier, I was merely trying not to make enemies at this time. But since you are so unappreciative, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"This man cannot be spared!"

Dongfang Bai's heart was filled with boundless killing intent.

Already harboring a murderous intent towards Lin Fan, he decided that if they fought today, at all costs, he must kill Lin Fan. Otherwise, leaving him alive might bring trouble later on.

With a wave of his hand, a long sword appeared in Dongfang Bai's grasp.

This sword was extremely long, measuring an entire zhang.

The Thunder Drawing Blade!

Paired with the Thunder Law, this Thunder Drawing Blade could bring forth an additional twenty percent of Dongfang Bai's strength.

It's worth noting that Dongfang Bai's strength was already formidable, and now, with an increase of twenty percent more power, his strength would become even more terrifying.

Dongfang Bai said coldly, "To be honest, just as you said before, I don't want to kill you unless I have no other choice. But since you're adamant about taking my Guiyun Token, I have no choice but to kill you!"

He would not give the Guiyun Token to Lin Fan.

Although, to Dongfang Bai, the Guiyun Token was no big deal.

But if he gave the Guiyun Token to Lin Fan today, he would lose all standing in the Ten Thousand Mountains, as it was a matter of his face.

Dongfang Bai made his move.

His Thunder Drawing Blade thundered and flashed with lightning.

In the next instant, he swung his sword.

The space around them seemed to freeze completely.

Everyone was watching the battle unfold, their bodies not moving an inch.

In fact, it wasn't that they didn't want to move. The oppressive force bursting from Dongfang Bai's Thunder Drawing Blade seemed to seal the surrounding space, leaving them immobile.

Even Lin Fan just stood there stunned.

It seemed as though a hint of incredulity appeared on Lin Fan's face.

The Thunder Drawing Blade, with its terrifying Blade Light, had already reached right in front of Lin Fan.

In the next moment, it would completely strike Lin Fan.

Yet Lin Fan still hadn't moved.

"Hmph!"

Seeing Lin Fan's dazed action, Dongfang Bai started to sneer inwardly, thinking, "Kid, weren't you arrogant earlier? Now, when you die under my blade, I want to see how you can remain so brash."

Dongfang Bai was extremely confident.

He believed his sword strike would inevitably land on Lin Fan's body and would completely obliterate him...

Sure enough, just as Dongfang Bai had surmised.

His blade ultimately struck Lin Fan.

"Lin Fan is finished!"

Brother Luo and the others started to worry.

Dongfang Bai grew even more delighted because he was certain that once this blade struck Lin Fan, Lin Fan was bound to die.

However...

Just as Dongfang Bai's heart was filled with immense joy, in the next moment, a bad premonition suddenly emerged in his mind.

"Damn it, didn't I kill him with a single strike? Why isn't there any blood on his body?" Dongfang Bai thought to himself.

A moment later, a thought flashed through Dongfang Bai's mind: "Not good, I've been tricked..."

"Retreat, leave!"

Dongfang Bai made a split-second decision to retreat and leave the place.

"Heh heh!"

At this moment, a strange sneering voice rang out: "Dongfang Bai, isn't it? I must say, you're quite extraordinary, to have realized all this? But now, thinking of escaping? Don't you think it's too late?"

The voice was elusive around Dongfang Bai, undoubtedly Lin Fan speaking.

Dongfang Bai ignored Lin Fan, still preparing to swiftly leave.

Only...

Soon, Dongfang Bai sadly discovered that a trapping array had appeared around him without his notice.

It would take Dongfang Bai at least one-tenth of a second to break through this trapping array.

To ordinary people, one-tenth of a second is negligible, not even long enough to blink.

But for experts like Dongfang Bai and Lin Fan, one-tenth of a second is long enough to determine life and death.

As Dongfang Bai mobilized all his power to break the array, a shadow of a spear had already appeared behind him, thrusting from his back and piercing through Dongfang Bai's heart.

In the next moment, all Dongfang Bai could see was a blur before his eyes, as Lin Fan had already appeared in front of him.

"You..."

Dongfang Bai looked at Lin Fan, opened his mouth to speak, but blood flowing from his mouth cut off his following words.

At the same time, if one looked closely, one would notice the shock, disbelief, and unwillingness in Dongfang Bai's eyes.

Dongfang Bai simply couldn't believe that he had died like this—died under the gaze of an ant he had always looked down upon?

"How is this possible? How could this happen? I am an expert on the Tiger List..." Dongfang Bai kept thinking to himself.

At this time, the people around were also extremely shocked by what had happened before their eyes.

Just now, they thought that Dongfang Bai could kill Lin Fan in any minute.

Only they hadn't expected...

The final outcome completely exceeded their expectations, with Lin Fan actually killng Dongfang Bai?

"Truthfully, I didn't want to kill you; I just wanted to take the Guiyun Token from you!" Lin Fan said at this moment.

A boundless sneer appeared on Dongfang Bai's face, as he coldly said: "You, you will regret this. Now that you've killed me, you will face the full-scale pursuit from Cloud East City, and soon, there will be no place for you in the Ten Thousand Mountains, I..."

Dongfang Bai still wanted to speak.

But his words were never spoken.

His body slowly fell, and the signs of life rapidly faded from him.

Dongfang Bai was dead.

After his death, Dongfang Bai's eyes were wide open.

He truly died with everlasting remorse...

Lin Fan glanced at Dongfang Bai, shook his head gently, and thought to himself: "I did not wish to kill you, but you brought this upon yourself."

Lin Fan promptly took Dongfang Bai's storage ring, which contained many treasures, of course including the Guiyun Token.
