The three of them escaped rapidly, only to discover that they were unable to leave the Imperial Capital. Regardless of which direction they tried to flee in, they eventually returned to their original spot. This made their countenances turn even grimmer.

Right now, with the three of them gathered together, they still did not have a sense of security. At the thought of how Fang Xingjian could appear at any time and place, they felt extremely horrified.

“Damn it! How did things turn out like this? Why does Fang Xingjian possess such powers?” Prince Zuoxian’s eyes were filled with discontent.

The eyes of the Sacred Fire Order’s Patriarch were filled with regret. Currently, he was feeling extremely regretful for having listened to the people from the plains and deciding to join forces with them to invade the Empire.

Thinking of how he could die here, he started to feel horrified. He was an existence who had great power in the desert, was able to get whatever he wanted, and was at tier five of the Divine level. As this kind of existence that carried the weight of mountains and seas, how could he possibly be willing to die just like that?

The more he thought about these, the more terrified he felt. His conjured physique even started to tremble due to the changes to his emotions, seeming to have become unstable.

Beside him, the Sacred Fire Order’s female Saint appeared to be in a daze, as if she was still unable to accept the things that had just happened in front of her.

‘We… Have we lost just like that?’

At the next moment, a beam of sword light flashed past the trio’s eyes as Fang Xingjian appeared before them. Upon his appearance, waves and waves of cheers rang out in the Imperial Capital.

However, Prince Zuoxian and the other two became extremely nervous.

Fang Xingjian looked at the three of them and said calmly, “The Heavenly Lion King has fled and entered the Nine-Tiered Heavens to strive for tier six of the Divine level.”

Hearing Fang Xingjian’s words, the trio’s countenances changed drastically. They were well aware of what his words meant.

The Heavenly Lion King had lost the Heavenly Lion Clone and suffered a loss in his strength. Under this situation, how could he possibly still strive for the Nine-Tiered Heavens and tier six of the Divine level? There was only one possibility—he had been forced by Fang Xingjian to strive for a higher realm.

Under this situation, it was clear how high the Heavenly Lion King’s chances were in successfully attaining tier six of the Divine level.

Prince Zuoxian’s countenance was very grim as he looked at Fang Xingjian and said, “Since that’s the case, are you going to stamp out all of us?”

Fang Xingjian’s gaze flickered a little. It was very easy for him to kill the three of them. However, if he could control them while getting them to control the plains and the Sand Country, and from there, provide more aid and support to the Empire and to him… it would be even better.

Still, it was impossible for him to let them off so easily. At the thought of this, Fang Xingjian tapped out with a finger, and layers of sword light went sweeping out.

The three of them saw their conjured physiques shattering for no reason, being torn apart and crushed by waves of invisible forces. They were unable to find the source of the attacks.

The three Divine level experts gasped and retreated crazily, turning into three streams of light that shot out toward three directions.
