Chapter 3357: An Astonishing Scene

"You… stop!"

Seeing that Xiao Fan had only attacked more viciously after he had spoken, the face of the City Lord of Zishen City darkened immediately.

Ma Cai, who was watching from the sidelines, was also stunned. Could Xiao Fan be intending to defy the order of the City Lord of Zishen City?!

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"…

Xiao Fan struck again, shattering Xing Yangshu's Physical Body once more, and revealed a bloodthirsty smile: "Apologies, City Lord… this is a Life-and-Death Battle; one of us must die."

Hearing Xiao Fan's words, the City Lord of Zishen City was stunned, then flew into a rage: "You… stop right now! This is Zishen City; there are no such rules here!"

"But such rules exist in my own code. Since this person provoked me and harbored the intent to kill… he must die!" Xiao Fan roared, continuing his fierce assault, relentlessly shattering Xing Yangshu's mangled remains.

By now, the speed at which Xing Yangshu could recover was growing slower and slower, bringing him to the brink of collapse…

"This… this brat is crazy!"

"What… what on earth is he trying to do?!"

"Good heavens, he actually dares to defy the City Lord's order!"

"…"

The onlookers nearby were stunned; one had to know that in the lower realms, the word of a City Lord was like the might of the heavens.

Yet, Xiao Fan had dared to refuse the City Lord of Zishen City in front of everyone…

He was completely disregarding the City Lord of Zishen City.

The City Lord of Zishen City would never spare him after this!!

"You… stop!" The City Lord of Zishen City was furious. He no longer cared about his status; if he did not intervene, Xing Yangshu would truly lose his life.

The next moment, the City Lord of Zishen City appeared on the Arena, blocking Xiao Fan's path.

"Greetings, City Lord." Upon seeing the City Lord of Zishen City, Xiao Fan cupped his fists in a salute, his expression calm.

The City Lord of Zishen City let out a breath and glanced at Xing Yangshu, who was slowly regenerating his Physical Body. His Physical Body had collapsed, his Divine Soul light was dim, and having just used a Secret Technique, it would take at least 500 years for him to return to his Peak…

This also meant that for the next 500 years, Xing Yangshu would be unable to serve him at full strength…

Thinking of this, the City Lord of Zishen City's face turned livid. He wanted nothing more than to deal with Xiao Fan, but remembering that Xiao Fan needed to enter the Secret Realm of the ruins for him later… the City Lord of Zishen City swallowed his rage.

"Hmm, this battle ends here… Xing Yangshu is injured, and he is no longer your match." The City Lord of Zishen City forced a smile.

Seeing this, the onlookers nearby were even more stunned…

The City Lord wasn't angry?!

Instead, he showed a smile to the brat who had defied his orders?!

How could this be?!

This incident completely overturned their understanding!

In their eyes, the City Lord of Zishen City was not a person with such a good temper!

"Fine." Xiao Fan nodded, showing not a shred of remorse for defying the City Lord of Zishen City just moments ago.

Xiao Fan knew very well that when Xing Yangshu came to cause him trouble, the City Lord of Zishen City must have been watching from the shadows the entire time. The fact that he didn't intervene was simply to test his strength…

If he had been the one defeated, the City Lord of Zishen City would certainly not have intervened and would have watched him get killed…

That was why Xiao Fan had attacked without any reservations.

At the same time, this was also Xiao Fan's way of reminding the City Lord of Zishen City that he was not someone who could be easily manipulated…

He, Xiao Fan, was also a person with a temper!

It must be said that Xiao Fan's act of refusing the City Lord of Zishen City had truly shocked the City Lord of Zishen City.

"City Lord… I have lost."

At this moment, the injured Xing Yangshu slowly condensed a new Physical Body, though his face was pale, and his strength was not even one-tenth of his Peak.

"Do you believe what I said now? He is stronger than you." The City Lord of Zishen City spoke slowly.

He sensed that Xiao Fan had realized his intentions, so now, the City Lord of Zishen City had to speak to shift the responsibility away from himself.

"I believe it; it is all my fault." Xing Yangshu nodded, his face pale.

"That is enough; withdraw." The City Lord of Zishen City waved his hand.

"Yes." Xing Yangshu nodded and left the Arena.
