The snowflakes stopped falling as a figure descended from the sky.
He was tall and imposing, dressed in a silver-white robe embroidered with azure patterns.
His face was handsome, with sharp features that seemed carved from jade.
He appeared to be in his late 30s with sharp features and cold green eyes that seemed to contain swords within!
Lucian’s face turned grave as he felt the overwhelming Spiritual Pressure.
Even without opening the Emperor’s Eye, he could sense the Eye was throbbing, as if warning him of a life-and-death crisis!
“S-senior Brother Leiran!” Haoran called out, his voice filled with excitement despite his serious injury.
“Senior Leiran!” Qin Hongtang immediately bowd as cold sweat dripped down his face.
The transformed Jiang Yun also regained his composure and reverted to his human form, bowing respectfully, “Senior Brother!”
The man named Leiran landed gracefully beside Haoran.
His gaze was cold and emotionless as he spoke calmly, “You’ve lost an arm.”
With a waved of this hand, the severed arm flew towards Haoran.
Then a small jade bottle flew towards Haoran, “Take this. It will stop the bleeding and help you reattach your arm faster.”
Haoran quickly took the bottle with his remaining hand.
Leiran’s gaze then swept across Lucian and his women, “You’re not from any of the major Empires, yet you dare injure a direct descendant of Zhuo Family in the Royal City?”
Without waiting for a response, Leiran continued, “I’ve brought what you asked for, Junior Brother. But it seems I need to handle this matter first.”
The air around Leiran began to distort as an overwhelming pressure emanated from his body!
“Senior Brother, this fucker severed my arm! And that purple-haired woman castrated Huo Yun!” Haoran quickly explained, his voice filled with hatred, “Kill them… I’ll use their souls to refine a treasure!”
Leiran nodded slightly and raised his hand, and instantly, the Spiritual Energy around him coalesced into a massive sword that appeared above the sky, emitting a terrifying aura that suppressed everything!
Lucian’s pupils constricted sharply as he looked up at the sword!
This sword was almost 70 meters long, giving off the power of the five Elements and a Sword Intent beyond Haoran’s!
Half-step Soul Integration!
Lucian took a deep breath to forcefully calm himself and his eyes turned to Leiran.
As their eyes met, Lucian saw greed!
Yes, intense greed!
And he already knew the reason.
It must be because of his Halberd.
This was the reason why he didn’t want to use his Halberd.
‘It seems my Halberd is even more extraordinary than I thought,’ He thought silently as he looked around.
At this moment, there were no cultivations who were previously watching the show. Instead, many golden armoured soldiers surrounding them.
“Lucian, what should we do? Even if we joined forces, I don’t think we can match him,” Nysa whispered, her face ugly.
As the Halberd appeared in his left hand, he turned towards his women.
His right still hadn’t completely healed, so he had no choice but use his left hand.
“Take Iris and Sylvia away from here, I’ll distract him,” Lucian smiled confidently.
“B-but you’re…” Iris bit her rosy lips that blood began to drip, “We should just use the Attack Talisman that Ancestor gave us.”
He nodded, “I want to try something. If it doesn’t work, then I’ll use that Talisman.”
“Don’t worry too much,” He touched her lips and smiled, “I’m afraid, they’ve arranged an Array Formation to not let the common people see inside and also to disrupt our communication. But I’ve already sent Eris a message. She told me she knows someone from the Royal Family. So I just need to hold him for a few moments.”
“B-b-brother Lucian,” Sylvia was stammering.
“His target is me. So with you guys here, I won’t be able to focus on the fight,” He patted Sylvia’s head, then turned to Nysa.
Nysa nodded and took out her Halberd from her Space Ring. This one was different from the one Lucian had previously broken.
“Are you done with you last words?” Leiran’s eyes flashed with greed as he saw the Halberd.
Indeed, this Divine Treasure was his target.
He had come long ago. But didn’t interfere because he didn’t believe his Junior brother would actually lose.
Not with a Half Divine Treasure…
But then he saw something unbelievable!
A nobody from some small Empire using a Divine Treasure.
And it wasn’t a Half Divine Treasure like what he or Haoran had, but a True Divine Treasure!
‘This should be mine. This must the will of the Heaven… Yes, it has to be. With his no… my Divine Treasure, I can compete for the seat of the Family Patriarch,’
He licked his lips as his heart pounded with excitement.
As for the three women, he didn’t care. His subordinates would capture them alive.
“Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of your women. You can now die,” He chuckled and his hand slowly swiped down.
With this wave, the heaven and earth changed color, thunder roared!
Lucian’s heart trembled, he knew that if this sword touched him, he wouldn’t survive.
As his body transformed into the Demon-Dragon state, demonic flames instantly engulfed him, with Yin-Yang Soul Sheild and Laws forming protective barriers.
He bit his tongue, and the Golden Essence Blood within his heart began to burn!
Instead of waiting for the sword, he went straight for Leiran!
However, he didn’t even manage to cross one third of the distance before the sword was already about to hit him.
“HAHHHHHH!” He roared and with both hands thrust upwards.
Compared to the huge sword, his Halberd felt insignificant like an ant trying to shake a dragon!
BOOOOOM!
An earth shattering shockwave spread, pushing the debris of shattered buildings to the edge of the Formation!
Lucian spat out blood, his right hand that was yet to completely heal broke again but his eyes were flashing coldly.
“Hmph, useless struggle!” Leiran sneered.
Lucian’s lips slowly curled up as a strange tearing sound echoed and a black dot suddenly appeared at the tip of his blade!
Before Leiran could understand, the black dot suddenly expanded to the size of a chicken egg and revealing the endless darkness beyond!
Leiran’s calm expression finally changed as he grabbed Haoran and Jiang Yun and quickly retreated!
At the next instant, the part of the sword where the black dot appeared began to distort!
The huge sword that seemed to have power to destroy the heaven and earth began to slowly suck inside the black space!
And within five breaths, it completely disappeared!
However, this was the end.
Because although he stimulated his Halberd to tear the space, he couldn’t control it.
