Chapter 195 Killing Gundam

Once any Divine Ability is cultivated to the peak, one is no longer restricted by forms and Moves, allowing it to be unleashed at will from the heart.

This Move of Ye Fan's was merely an extension of the Qiankun Heaven Imprisoning Hand, but to outsiders, it completely overturned their understanding of the world.

Although Gao Da did not use his full strength in that Move, it was still a strike from someone at the Great Perfection of Core Formation Realm. Yet, Ye Fan blocked it with ease, a scene that exceeded everyone's expectations.

After a momentary daze, Gao Da's Face instantly darkened as he questioned who Ye Fan really was to dare interfere in the affairs of his Gao Family.

With just one Move, Gao Da could see that Ye Fan was definitely not simple. He secretly suspected that Ye Fan was backed by some major Sect, and for a moment, he did not dare to act rashly.

"I, Ye Fan, am just passing through. I simply do not wish to see Wushuang City drenched in blood. I hope Senior can give me some Face and lead your men away," Ye Fan said, neither humble nor arrogant.

He had no intention of getting involved in this matter, but since Yun Li was still in Wushuang City, he could only find a way to make Gao Da retreat first. Who would have thought that these words would completely enrage the opponent?

"Give you Face? Who do you think you are—a Thunder Punishment Sect Elder or the First Seat of the Subduing Dragon Temple? You tell me to retreat and I retreat? How laughable!"

"I see you have some skill, so if you're smart, get lost immediately. Otherwise, I'll kill you first before trampling over Wushuang City!"

"Is there truly no room for negotiation?" Ye Fan asked with a frown.

Gao Da did not speak again and immediately struck for the second time.

Unable to see through the other's identity, he planned to teach Ye Fan a lesson and force him to back down to avoid further complications.

Gao Da formed hand seals, and a tsunami-like wave of spiritual power surged toward Ye Fan, its power even stronger than before. Even the City Protection Array began to ripple.

"Refusing Face when it's given."

Despite being so close to Yun Li, he was unable to approach her. Ye Fan had long been suppressed with anger and was looking for an outlet; Gao Da had just delivered himself to his doorstep.

With the yinglong sword in hand, Ye Fan's aura surged. With the Move Sword Eighteen, he struck with a force that could cleave the heavens and earth. A hundred-zhang-long sword light tore a gap through the spiritual tsunami, its residual power unabated as it slashed fiercely toward Gao Da!

"What terrifying Sword Intent!"

Although Gao Da said nothing, a storm of shock raged in his heart. He found Ye Fan's background more and more inscrutable.

He hurriedly moved to block, consuming nearly thirty percent of his spiritual power just to barely dissipate the sword light. Compared to Ye Fan's calm and composed demeanor, the difference in their strength was clear, instantly causing an uproar.

"Who is this person? He actually suppressed Gao Da!"

"When did our Wushuang City produce such a powerhouse?!"

"He clearly only has a Fifth Level of Core Formation Realm cultivation, so how can he suppress Gao Da?!"

...

As the crowd's discussions rose, Gao Da's Face became incredibly unsightly, and a trace of fear even surfaced in his heart.

"Retreating now would be best for everyone. Otherwise... you will die."

Ye Fan spoke with a serious expression, issuing his final warning, but Gao Da clearly had no intention of accepting it.

"I will die? Brat Ye Fan, there must be a limit to your arrogance."

"I only gave you some leeway because I saw your extraordinary background. Since you are hell-bent on seeking death, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Gao Da laughed in extreme anger and brought out his trump card. As he formed hand seals, his body ballooned to over a hundred zhang tall, looking like the primordial giant Pangu. His terrifying aura weighed down on everyone, making it impossible for them to lift their heads.

"It's appeared! The Gao Family's secret Divine Ability, the Giant Spirit Technique!" Dugu Jin said, his Face pale.

Once the Giant Spirit Technique was unleashed, Gao Da's Physical Body strength and spiritual power both surged. Although he couldn't maintain it for long, in a sense, he was now almost equivalent to a Golden Core Realm Cultivator.

Despair-inducing energy radiated from Gao Da's entire body. Terrifying spiritual power gathered in his fists, as he intended to destroy both Ye Fan and the City Protection Array together.

"Die!"

As Gao Da's palm descended, the heavens and earth seemed to shatter. The terrifying pressure caused Dugu Meng's beautiful eyes to tremble, her heart filled with despair.

But at some point, Ye Fan had summoned the meteorite blade. As the pitch-black blade was unsheathed inch by inch, the sounds of dragons roaring and tigers howling echoed, making Gao Da's scalp tingle.

"What Move is this?!"

"Thunder Prison Divine Blade, First Form: Earth Splitter!"

A pitch-black blade light sliced through the night sky. Gao Da's mountain-like palm froze in mid-air, motionless.

Before anyone could realize what had happened, that hundred-zhang-tall body, like a Giant Spirit God, was split in two from the middle!

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Gao Da's body exploded inch by inch. His feet, thighs, abdomen, chest, neck... until finally, even his head vanished into a mist of blood!

A rain of blood fell from the sky without warning. Both inside and outside Wushuang City, there was absolute silence. Everyone's eyes were wide as if they had turned to stone; some even slapped themselves hard, suspecting they were dreaming.

The clansmen who had come with Gao Da were scared out of their wits. Once they realized what had happened, they scrambled onto their flying ships and fled, not even daring to leave a parting threat.

Dugu Meng stood there dazed, watching Ye Fan's figure as he stood with his hands behind his back. Her heart couldn't help but flutter.

On the other hand, little Yun Li looked triumphant, as if her tail were about to wag up into the sky.

After an unknown amount of time, a thunderous cheer erupted within Wushuang City—both in relief at surviving the disaster and in gratitude for Ye Fan's rescue.

Dugu Jin finally came to his senses and quickly ordered the array to be opened, inviting Ye Fan to enter the city.

A grand banquet was held in the City Lord's Mansion. Despite Ye Fan's repeated refusals, he was seated at the head of the table. No one dared to start eating until he picked up his chopsticks.

After consuming a few Medicinal Pills, Dugu Jin's complexion improved significantly. He repeatedly toasted Ye Fan to thank him for saving their lives.

"I was just helping those in need. City Lord Dugu, please don't take it to heart," Ye Fan said modestly.

"Young Friend Ye, what are you saying? If not for your help, I'm afraid not a soul would have been left alive in Wushuang City today."

With a look of lingering fear, Dugu Jin quickly called over his daughter, Dugu Meng, and told her to also toast Ye Fan.

Dugu Meng had discarded her usual swift and decisive manner, showing a rare hint of maidenly bashfulness as she thanked Ye Fan for saving Wushuang City.

"Lady Dugu, you're overstating it. I heard from Yun Li that you've taken good care of her during this time."

Dugu Meng's Face flushed red, and she quickly said she hadn't given her any special treatment, that she and Yun Li were just good friends.

While others said nothing about her behavior, Yun Hao wore a playful expression. However, when he saw his daughter still eating and drinking heartily beside them, he felt quite speechless.

"Someone is about to reach into your rice bowl, yet all you do is eat."

"Who's reaching into my rice bowl?"

Little Yun Li's innocent expression left Yun Hao speechless, while Dugu Meng's Face turned even redder as she found an excuse to leave the banquet.

Dugu Jin also seemed to have something on his mind. After hesitating for a long while, he finally couldn't help but speak.

"I wonder what Young Friend Ye's plans are? When do you intend to leave Wushuang City?"

"We'll be leaving after resting for a day or two."

Although he had expected this answer, Dugu Jin couldn't help but feel a sense of bitterness.

He had finally managed to wait for a savior, but in the end, it was just a passing deity. Wushuang City's ordeal was still unavoidable.
