Chapter 727: Intimidating in All Directions!
“Sizzle…”
A tiny lightning spark appeared at the tip of Fang Yu’s finger.
“Sigh.”
Fang Yu sighed, extended his right index finger, and pointed at Mu Lei in front of him.
Mu Lei stood there with a mocking expression, hands on his hips, lightning flickering across his body, clearly not taking Fang Yu’s finger gesture seriously.
In the next second, the thin threads of lightning flickering at Fang Yu’s fingertip suddenly expanded!
Almost instantaneously, the lightning condensed to the size of a small mountain, growing to an astonishing degree!
The power contained within made people’s hearts suddenly contract!
“Boom!”
This enormous lightning bolt, burning with internal flames, blasted forward!
“Ah…”
Mu Lei, who had been sneering just moments ago, had a dramatic change in expression and only managed to let out a miserable scream.
“Rumble…”
In an instant, his entire body was engulfed by the blasting lightning, his screams abruptly silenced.
At that moment, the electric light flashed so brightly that no one could keep their eyes open.
The air pressure throughout the area dropped significantly in that instant.
This burst of light lasted for more than ten seconds.
As the light gradually dissipated, Fang Yu could be seen still standing in his original position.
But Mu Lei, who had been in front of him, had vanished without a trace.
“Sizzle! Sizzle!”
Around Fang Yu, residual lightning still flickered in a small area.
The ground beneath him had collapsed into a huge crater from the impact of that strike.
It was impossible to imagine what Mu Lei, who had been standing in front of Fang Yu, felt when that attack exploded.
All around, there was dead silence.
Everyone’s eyes were wide open, their mouths agape enough to fit an egg, staring blankly at Fang Yu as if they too had been struck by lightning, their minds completely blank.
None of them had expected that the initially thin, almost invisible lightning would, in an instant, expand into a force with the destructive power of a doomsday weapon.
Duke Mu Lei… seemed to have died… without even a corpse left to find!
A Duke had died!
If this news spread, the entire Western Region would be shaken!
This was Duke Mu Lei! The chosen one of the Angel Church, the true chosen son of heaven!
Yet he had been killed!
In the past, this would have been unimaginable.
Not only would no one dare to do such a thing… even if they dared, no one could accomplish it!
Because the eight Dukes were the eight strongest individuals in the Western Region!
Within the Western Region, there existed no one who could defeat them!
But today, a non-Western Region person had actually… killed Duke Mu Lei.
“Now… this is going to be interesting,” the bearded man in the crowd behind muttered, staring blankly at Fang Yu in the air.
…
“See? I told you that Master Fang’s attack would definitely be powerful!” Bai Ran was the first to react, speaking to Zi Luolan beside him.
At this moment, Zi Luolan remained silent.
She stared at Fang Yu, her purple eyes gleaming, filled with complexity and shock.
“Damn… so this is what the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Technique is actually like?” Fang Yu looked at his right index finger, his eyes equally filled with surprise.
This was the power of a semi-immortal level technique!
Even the master using the technique could be deceived!?
“I’m sorry, Duke Mu Lei, I didn’t expect this either,” Fang Yu murmured, looking ahead.
That strike just now was something that perhaps only Fang Yu himself could have withstood head-on.
“Semi-immortal level techniques should be used sparingly before I fully integrate with heaven and earth. They’re too difficult to control,” Fang Yu thought to himself.
…
While Fang Yu was lost in thought in mid-air, Dukes De Laqi and Huaite regained their senses.
After witnessing that attack, their faces showed not only shock but also a sinking feeling in their hearts.
This man named Fang Yu… was truly as powerful as Bei’er had said!
In fact, he was even stronger than Bei’er had described!
If either De Laqi or Huaite had gone up against that attack just now, they would have met the same fate: death!
What was more terrifying was that after unleashing that attack, Fang Yu showed no signs of strain or fatigue!
He even looked somewhat relaxed!
This meant that the attack just now was merely a standard attack for him, something he could use multiple times, not some trump card!
What should they do now?
De Laqi and Huaite, who had originally intended to take action, now felt hesitant!
As Dukes, it was their duty to protect the Angel Church.
But no duty was more precious than life itself.
“Let’s leave this place first, then immediately return to the Angel Church to report to the Great Angel…” De Laqi said with a grim expression, speaking softly.
But just then, Fang Yu in the air suddenly turned around.
De Laqi and Huaite both jolted.
Fang Yu looked at them, smiled, and then flew toward their position.
De Laqi and Huaite stood in place, feeling both nervous and fearful.
Fang Yu’s smile, in their eyes, was like the smile of death, making their bodies go cold.
They wanted to flee, but reason told them they absolutely could not run.
With so many Holy Light Group members watching, if they, as Dukes, turned tail and ran… it would be a massive blow to their personal reputation and even to the reputation of the Angel Church.
“Hello there,” Fang Yu landed in front of the two and smiled.
“…Hello,” De Laqi forced himself to remain calm and replied.
“You were colleagues with Mu Lei, right?” Fang Yu asked.
“He… was one of the Dukes, but can’t really be considered our colleague,” De Laqi said.
“Oh? You’re all Dukes, how are you not colleagues? The man just died, and you’re already so eager to distance yourself? That doesn’t seem appropriate, does it?” Fang Yu teased.
De Laqi’s expression changed, knowing Fang Yu was mocking him, and he could only grit his teeth and lower his head.
In his heart, he felt both fear and humiliation.
As a Duke, when had he ever been so insulted!?
“Master Fang, Mu Lei was naturally rebellious, and we didn’t have a deep relationship with him. That’s the truth,” Huaite spoke up at this point.
“Don’t worry, I’m not looking to cause trouble for you either,” Fang Yu smiled and patted Huaite’s shoulder.
No one had ever dared to make such a casual gesture toward a Duke.
Huaite was very uncomfortable, his expression slightly changing, but he could only force a smile in return.
“I thought you might join forces to attack me because of Mu Lei’s death. It seems you’re very rational and didn’t do so. What a pity,” Fang Yu said.
As he spoke, the Sky Dome Sacred Halberd that had been floating in the air behind him flew rapidly toward Fang Yu’s position.
Then, before the horrified eyes of De Laqi and Huaite, the Sky Dome Sacred Halberd directly entered Fang Yu’s body.
“Are you sure you don’t have anything else to discuss with me?” Fang Yu looked at the two Dukes in front of him and asked.
“…No,” De Laqi and Huaite shook their heads repeatedly.
“Alright then, goodbye,” Fang Yu smiled, waved at them, and turned to fly toward Bai Ran’s direction.
Watching Fang Yu’s departing figure, De Laqi and Huaite breathed sighs of relief, their faces ashen.
When had they ever been so submissive?
The feeling was extremely uncomfortable!
“We must go to the Angel Church immediately. This Fang Yu cannot be allowed to leave the Western Region alive. Otherwise, we will suffer a huge loss of reputation!” De Laqi took a deep breath and said solemnly.
“He’s too terrifying…” Huaite said with lingering fear, “Just now, his eyes… I felt like he saw through my entire being. But he looks so young, how could he possess such eyes?”
“Don’t overthink it. No matter how strong he is, he’s still just one person. We’ll report to the Great Angel, and it will surely have a solution!” De Laqi said.
…
Fang Yu came to Bai Ran’s side, glanced at Zi Luolan beside him, and said, “Let’s go.”
Zi Luolan nodded in a daze, took out a communicator from her inner pocket, and sent a signal.
Then, she walked toward the distance, gathering her four severely injured subordinates together.
Within five minutes, a private plane arrived, landing on the flat snow plain.
Several subordinates came down from the cabin and carried the four severely injured people onto the plane.
Fang Yu and the others boarded afterward.
Then, the private plane took off and flew away.
On the devastated snow plain, only the surviving members of the Holy Light Group remained.
Everyone looked at the various cracks in the ground ahead, the deep depressions… unable to come to their senses for a long time.
They had originally come to eliminate the Death Spirit Clan, but never expected things to develop to this point.
A Duke had been killed… predictably, this incident would trigger a massive shock!
“Beardy, what do you think the Angel Church’s reaction will be?” someone asked.
“Do you even need to ask? They definitely won’t let Fang Yu leave the Western Region!” the bearded man said with certainty.
“But Fang Yu has already boarded a private plane. Even if the Angel Church wants to intercept, it might be too late…” someone nearby said.
“Hehe, that’s because you don’t know the methods of the Angel Church! Intercepting a private plane is nothing difficult for them. You should know that in the entire Western Region, anyone targeted by the Angel Church has no hope of a good end! Just watch, news will come soon,” the bearded man laughed coldly.
