237: Chapter 237 Kill Li Junze, Destroy the Useless Counterattack System, The Demonic Dragon is Born!

"Rebellious Disciple, stand aside. Your Revered Master will resolve the catastrophe here myself."

Su Xiyue shielded Lin Ran behind her, her tone overbearing, and she was about to strike Li Junze with a palm.

Lin Ran hurriedly stopped her and said, "Revered Master, go and deal with the Heavenly Palace Realm Experts from Heavenly God Mountain first. I will handle this person myself."

He did not let Su Xiyue kill Li Junze, firstly because Li Junze had just used a life-saving talisman, and the duration of this talisman had not yet expired.

Secondly, it was because he wanted to use Li Junze's hand to release the Evil Dragon!

In his eyes, Li Junze, without the life-saving talisman, was already a dead man.

And as long as Li Junze died, he would be able to collect the last piece of the dragon slaying sword and forge the complete dragon slaying sword!

As long as he had the dragon slaying sword in hand, he could slay the Evil Dragon!

Ever since he told Li Junze at the Heavenly Sword Secret Treasury that Li Wuqing wanted to kill him, he had been planning to use Li Junze's hand to release the Evil Dragon.

He remembered that the True Dragon Hatchling, Long Ling, wanted to devour that Evil Dragon.

Since that was the case, he intended to fulfill Long Ling's wish!

Therefore, everything he began planning in the Heavenly Sword Secret Treasury was for Long Ling.

He wanted to see what Long Ling would transform into after devouring the Evil Dragon!

Su Xiyue naturally did not understand Lin Ran's intentions, but seeing her Rebellious Disciple speak this way, she knew well that Lin Ran had his own plans, so she turned and attacked the Heavenly Palace Realm Experts from Heavenly God Mountain.

After emerging from the Forbidden Ground of Yin Yang Peak, Su Xiyue's transformation was significant, breaking through directly from the Third Heaven of Quasi-Emperor Realm to the Sixth Heaven of the Heavenly Palace Realm!

Furthermore, she possessed a top-tier Divine Body—the God King Body!

Her combat power was far stronger than this group of Heavenly Palace Realm Experts from Heavenly God Mountain!

Lin Ran, on the other hand, guarded Li Junze, constantly putting pressure on him.

"Li Junze, if This Saint guesses correctly, your final trump card should be this Evil Dragon, right?"

"To be honest, once the duration of your life-saving talisman expires, I'm afraid you won't be able to control this heaven burying sword, will you?"

Lin Ran said with a faint smile.

Hearing this, a stormy sea surged in Li Junze's heart.

Why did Lin Ran know about the life-saving talisman?

One had to know, this was a unique reward from the waste-to-prodigy face-slapping system, known only to him. How did Lin Ran know about it?!

Could it be... that Lin Ran was also someone who possessed a System?!

In that case, everything made sense.

Ever since he met Lin Ran, he had been suffering setbacks at every turn, let alone face-slapping others.

It was as if Lin Ran was his nemesis.

And if Lin Ran also possessed a System, then everything could be explained.

Otherwise, how could he, a dignified Host of the waste-to-prodigy face-slapping system, suffer setbacks multiple times before a mere young Prodigy of the Emperor Realm?!

"Li Junze, you don't have much time left."

Lin Ran looked at Li Junze meaningfully.

Li Junze was anxious, breaking out in a cold sweat, yet he was also frantically trying to control the heaven burying sword even more intensely.

Under pressure, infinite motivation is born.

In the very last second before the life-saving talisman was about to expire, Li Junze finally succeeded in controlling the heaven burying sword.

"Hahahaha... Lin Ran, you have lost! You have lost!! This Crown Prince can lose countless times, but as long as I can win this last time, all of you will have to die here!!"

Li Junze pulled out the heaven burying sword, and instantly, monstrous Devilish Qi surged from the cracks, shaking the heavens and the earth!

"Rumble!!" The earth trembled violently, as if an earthquake had occurred, and countless living beings were filled with anxiety, their minds unsettled by this wave of Devilish Qi.

"Since the Evil Dragon is about to come out, then, you should die too."

Lin Ran smiled indifferently and extended his right palm; a massive palm of magic power covered the sky and earth, carrying unparalleled Physical Body power.

Li Junze's heart trembled wildly, and he hurriedly activated a counterattack talisman, raising the heaven burying sword to defend himself.

However, Lin Ran's current Physical Body power was capable of suppressing and killing even a Great Emperor. Even if he activated a counterattack talisman and his cultivation temporarily broke through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm, he was no match for Lin Ran in a single exchange.

"Boom!" After the massive palm of magic power fell, Li Junze's Physical Body instantly exploded into a mist of blood.

【Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully completing the Heavenly Mandate Mission~】

【Reward: 130,000 destiny points, dragon slaying sword fragment (four)】

【Ding! Detected that the Host has collected all dragon slaying sword fragments; this System has automatically forged the dragon slaying sword for the Host!】

Following Li Junze's death, the System's rewards were successfully received. Looking at the dragon slaying sword in the System space, Lin Ran felt fully confident.

Back then, the ancestor of the Jue Jian Imperial Dynasty was able to suppress the Evil Dragon relying solely on a single fragment of the dragon slaying sword. Now, with the complete dragon slaying sword in his hand, why would he fear failing to slay this Evil Dragon?!

Meanwhile, after Li Junze died, a hazy, misty ball of light, visible only to Lin Ran, quietly appeared and fled into the distance.

"Want to run? Die for this System!"

The Destiny System roared, shooting out a beam of brilliant light, also visible only to Lin Ran, which instantly obliterated that ball of light.

【Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully completing the Heavenly Mandate Mission!】

【Reward: A mysterious gift pack!】

After the waste-to-prodigy face-slapping system was obliterated by the Destiny System, Lin Ran once again received a reward. He did not choose to open the mysterious gift pack right now; at the moment, there were more important things waiting for him to do.

"Boom!" The earth collapsed, Devilish Qi covered the sky, and as a colossal creature flew straight into the clouds, what followed were screams that covered the world.

"Out at last! This Venerable One has finally emerged from the Seal of the heaven burying sword! Li Nian'en, you deserve to die!!!"

The Evil Dragon's form blotted out the sky, its eyes like two blood moons hanging in the firmament, its majestic Aura making people anxious and terrified, afraid to speak.

The Li Nian'en it spoke of was none other than the ancestor of the Jue Jian Imperial Dynasty! If not for Li Nian'en, it would not have been suppressed by the heaven burying sword for ten thousand ages. One could imagine its hatred for Li Nian'en!

On the other side, with Su Xiyue's help, Li Wuqing also successfully dealt with the people from Heavenly God Mountain. He looked at the Evil Dragon with cold eyes, his tone grim as he said:

"The ancestor is dead, but this Emperor is his descendant! Today, even though you, this beast, have managed to escape the suppression of the heaven burying sword and reappear in the world, this Emperor can also suppress you!"

The Evil Dragon turned its massive, hideous dragon head, its dual blood-moon pupils staring straight at Li Wuqing.

"Suppress this Venerable One? Just by you? With cultivation at the Seventh Heaven of the Heavenly Palace Realm?! Hahahaha..."

It couldn't help but burst into loud laughter. With mere cultivation at the Seventh Heaven of the Heavenly Palace Realm, he dared to claim he would suppress it again.

Even the ancestor of the Jue Jian Imperial Dynasty back then, Li Nian'en, who had reached the Ninth Heaven of the Heavenly Palace Realm, had only just barely managed to suppress it, and passed away not long after.

How did this mere Li Wuqing dare to brazenly claim he would suppress it? This was simply the funniest joke it had ever heard in its life!

"Ant! Before you die, this Venerable One will let you open your eyes and witness what the Seven-Star Divine Might is! Heavenly Pivot Star, appear!"
