Peerless Dragon Sovereign

Chapter 712: The Overbearing Zhou Lan

Seeing Song Ba’s smile, Zhou Lan was immediately very upset.

Originally planning to achieve his goal through incitement, he only needed to hide in the dark and wait for the Royal Family and Chu Nan to fight to the death.

But Song Ba didn’t fall for it at all; instead, he told him to capture the people.

This put him and Song Ba squarely against Chu Nan, and once they acted, there was no room for maneuver.

With a bitter smile, Zhou Lan knew the consequences but had no way to refuse because it was a command from a Ninth Heaven expert.

"As you command, Commander Song Ba!"

Zhou Lan shouted softly, and then his figure, like a Hui Ghost, flashed to the center of the battle.

At this moment, Chu Nianfang and Gu Nianxue were jointly dealing with Ji Shenhai and were in a white-hot state.

Relying on the superiority of their Cultivation Technique and special constitution, they were overcoming the strong with the weak.

The two Second Heaven Martial Artists joined forces, making it almost impossible for the Third Heaven Ji Shenhai to catch a breath.

The expressions of the martial artists watching were even more solemn, and their eyes were full of fear.

But with the appearance of Zhou Lan, the situation on the battlefield instantly reversed.

The terrifying pressure of the Seventh Heaven was like a stormy sea, splitting the battlefield directly amidst a thunderous roar.

"What!" exclaimed Chu Nianfang.

Seeing the newcomer, Gu Nianxue also screamed, "How is it possible, it’s Zhou Lan!"

The opening of the Celestial Secret Realm meant that, in theory, someone like Zhou Lan, a Seventh Heaven cultivator, shouldn’t set foot here.

But the two girls didn’t know that Chu Nan, to protect them, had secretly infiltrated, causing this law to be directly overridden.

"Haha, you’re here just in time, Zhou Lan quickly help me capture Chu Nianfang, I want the Millennium Golden Ganoderma from her!" Ji Shenhai was overjoyed when he saw Zhou Lan.

At this moment, he couldn’t care less about why Zhou Lan came; he urgently issued the order.

Zhou Lan nodded, not daring to hesitate in the slightest.

Chu Nan could appear at any moment, and if he did, the plan would be completely ruined.

The power of the Cloud Sea from the Seventh Heaven transformed into an invisible large hand, reaching across the air towards Chu Nianfang and Gu Nianxue.

Zhou Lan’s body emitted a hair-raising, terrifying pressure, like an insurmountable mountain standing in front of everyone, making every onlooker shudder and blush in awe.

This strike was majestic and overwhelmingly powerful, its strength was as irresistible as a torrential flood.

It was as dazzling and indestructible as a falling star from the nine heavens.

Such a terrifying strike, even those strong martial artists found it difficult to see its exact trajectory.

As this earth-shattering attack was about to land on Chu Nianfang and Gu Nianxue, everyone believed that they would be defeated without any power to fight back, even meeting their demise.

Unexpectedly, in the face of such a strong enemy, the two girls showed no intention of retreat or escape, nor did they plead for mercy to cling to life. On the contrary, they resolutely charged towards Zhou Lan!

"My brother, just having stepped into the Cloud Sea Realm, can slay Seventh Heaven experts. As his sister, how can I lose face in front of him?" A surge of heroism and unyielding spirit welled up in Chu Nianfang’s heart.

Since meeting Chu Nan, she always regarded this brother as a role model in her heart, constantly driving herself to keep striving forward by his example.

Facing the test of life and death, her belief to contend with the enemy was even more determined.

Gu Nianxue also did not back down, knowing that only by bravely facing challenges could she continuously progress and narrow the distance between herself and Chu Nan.

Therefore, in the face of a strong enemy like Zhou Lan, she would never choose to retreat or avoid.

Though the two currently only had Second Heaven cultivation, their eyes revealed a steadfast and fearless spirit.

Braving the seemingly endless and overwhelming pressure, the two girls showed no sign of fear, their eyes as firm as a rock, resolutely unleashing their unique martial arts and skills to fight the enemy.

With a thunderous crash — "Bang!"

They instantly pushed their unique constitution and profound power of cultivation, honed through years of arduous practice, to the limit, perfectly merging them together.

Sword Qi crisscrossed, a cold wind howled and raged, surging like a furious tide towards Zhou Lan’s invisible giant hand.

The two immense powers collided fiercely in mid-air, momentarily sparking a turbulent storm that swept through the entire surrounding world like a tsunami.

The cold wind and Sword Qi shot out violently, their astonishing power shocking the martial artists among the Strong Race and Royal Family spectating, their faces drastically changing in disbelief.

Ji Shenhai, witnessing this, was even more uneasy, quietly thinking: "If they had used such a formidable move earlier, I would have been defeated long ago..."

Despite the two girls currently only possessing Second Heaven Cultivation Realm, the terrifying strength they displayed at that moment was no less than that of a Third Heaven expert.

However, unfortunately, Zhou Lan was, after all, a Seventh Heaven expert; the massive gap of five cultivation realms between them wasn’t something easily bridged by intricate cultivation techniques and special constitutions alone.

Ultimately, before the terrifying might contained in Zhou Lan’s invisible large hand, the Sword Qi and cold wind fully unleashed by the two girls collapsed and disintegrated.

The two girls staggered back several steps, terror etched on their faces, their lips devoid of color. Although their bodies were unharmed, their internal organs felt as if they had been violently struck by a powerful force, churning tumultuously.

Meanwhile, Zhou Lan appeared calm and composed, stepping lightly to the two girls’ side, saying slowly, "Anyone who dares to provoke the Strong Race and Royal Family must pay a heavy price for it."

His voice was not loud, yet carried an incontestable authority.

"The current situation is purely self-inflicted," Zhou Lan’s tone remained cold and arrogant, as if everything happening was under his control.

However, only a few noticed that the hand Zhou Lan used to deal with Chu Nianfang and Gu Nianxue was currently trembling slightly.

Clearly, blocking that fierce strike just now wasn’t as effortless for Zhou Lan as he claimed.

As he finished speaking, Zhou Lan intended to reach out and capture the two women.

Chu Nianfang and Gu Nianxue, noticing this, felt an intense resentment in their hearts.

They clenched their fists tightly, hating their own powerlessness for having no power to resist against such an enemy.

Zhou Lan’s fan-like large hand carried a fierce gust, pressing down on the two girls like Mt. Tai.

The two girls suddenly found their vision darkening, as if the entire world had moved far away from them.

Just as Chu Nianfang and Gu Nianxue were about to fall back into the enemy’s grasp, suddenly, a deep and mild voice entered their ears: "Well done, leave the rest to me."
