Through observation, the cunning Fang Xiaoan had noticed that the little dolphin could spit out no more than ten bubbles at a time. With more bubbles, the first one would disappear. That was to say, Adorable was only able to subdue ten people simultaneously, at most.

“All the members of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect will die today. We will eradicate you shameless juniors, even if it costs the lives of twenty or so Tranquility Academy disciples. We’ll let Ding Hao see his family and friends die in front of him with his own eyes.” Fang Xiaoan stopped. He glanced at the experts behind him and ordered them to rush forward in an unquestionable tone.

After that, the result by and large had already been settled.

He would not risk his life to fight against a little girl whose strength was unknown.

“Slay!” Although feeling timid, the disciples faked fierce roars. Under Fang Xiaoan’s order, the experts of Tranquility Academy and other sects rushed forward reluctantly.

A bloodbath was about to begin.

Li Lan shook her head gently and said, “It’s a pity. You chose to take the despicable way, then die this way!”

The next moment, she raised her head and sang.

Pale yellow light was shot out from a jade storage bracelet on her wrist.

A colossal shadow suddenly appeared in the void.

It was a huge Rock Giant with a height of hundreds of meters, whose body glimmered with strange patterns. Like a human being, it had two hands and two feet. As if being covered with rock-bone armor, it gave off a ferocious aura, like a war behemoth.

There were no other organs on the huge head of the giant, only one enormous eye which flowed with a flaming red light, like a fire spring.

Upon appearing, this Rock Giant made everyone’s hearts tremble uncontrollably.

At the same time, a silver light ball was released from the monster’s back, enveloping Li Lan like a mist. In a flash, it led her to its huge rock body.

“Boom!”

The Rock Giant landed between the ice peaks, ice crystals splashing everywhere.

Its massive body was even taller than many ice peaks. Its four limbs were as thick as a mountain. Despite the clumsy look, they were extremely flexible. At this moment, the giant seemed to be alive.

A voice came out of the stone giant—

“Go to hell, all of you!”

It was Li Lan’s voice.

The sound was extremely clear.

It was as if she had transformed into a Rock Giant.

Before Fang Xiaoan could understand what was going on, the giant rock monster raised its head. From its only eye, a column of flame was burst out, cutting through the void.

The flame was like the punishment of the Gods, turning everything on its way into ashes. Most of the one hundred or so Snow Province experts who were following Fang Xiaoan had reached the Martial King Realm. But in the face of this flame, they didn’t even have time to scream before they vanished like specks of dust in a hurricane.

The flame burned the void wherever it passed, leaving a red mark in the sky.

Several panicked Martial King experts had accidentally touched the red mark when they tried frantically to dodge the flame, and were instantly turned into ashes with a roar.

Fang Xiaoan was scared out of his wits. “What is this…?”

At this moment, he felt a majestic power pressing down.

The power of this giant rock monster was beyond his imagination. Just as if a supreme emperor had descended to the human world, its power was far greater than that of an ordinary Martial Emperor. Even when Ding Hao and Mu Tianyang were fighting, neither had displayed such strength.

“It’s one of the ten guardian souls of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect—’The Mighty’!”

Li Lan’s voice came out of the Rock Giant’s body.

Fang Xiaoan was stunned. “The Mighty?”

He didn’t have the slightest idea what this mouthful of a word meant, but it was obviously not the time to ponder about such things. He immediately turned around and ran away, like a whipped dog.

He knew it was over the moment The Mighty appeared.

Everything that he had planned that day had been for naught.

The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had such a powerful battle puppet… Any vile attempt against it would be in vain. Even if Li Xianglai could kill Ding Hao and trap him inside the Fifteen Stars Demon Formation, this giant would break the formation within seconds.

Its power had exceeded what the formation could bear.

What’s more, according to Li Lan, The Mighty was only one of the ten guardian souls.

This meant that there were at least another nine battle puppets of such power in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

Just the thought of the number was enough to make him dizzy.

As he turned around, Fang Xiaoan thought of something that frightened him even more. If the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had such destructive weapons that could instantly break the Fifteen Stars Demon Formation, then why was Ding Hao still willing to battle in the formation for a whole day? There was only one possibility: he was planning something.

This thought petrified him.

It was also the moment he sadly realized that he would probably never beat the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

In the face of such a powerful opponent, all his efforts were as ridiculous as a clown’s performance.

Li Lan shouted, “Running? Do you think you can escape?”

With a booming sound, the ground trembled as the gigantic Mighty jumped up. Its stone palm pressed down like a mountain and instantly caught the fleeing Fang Xiaoan. It was as easy as catching a fly.

The moment it landed on the ground, The Mighty swung its left arm, creating a hurricane in the void.

Another 20 or 30 Martial King Realm experts were unable to dodge in time; they were instantly smashed by the stone arm.

Their bodies were burst open. Bloodstains covered the brown arm, just like mosquitoes that were smashed into pieces after accidentally bumping into the window.

The remaining dozens of Martial King Realm experts were terrified and immediately turned to flee.

“Boom!”

The Mighty shot out another fire light column with its one eye.

In an instant, it swept more than a dozen Martial King Realm experts and burned them into ashes.

Li Lan, who was controlling The Mighty, showed no mercy. It was simply a massacre.

The Puppet of War from the Fake God City had the combat capability of the peak Martial Emperor Realm. After being transformed by Ding Hao, its consciousness was connected to Li Lan’s Divine Senses, so it could distinguish between enemies and friends. Although it was Li Lan’s first actual combat with it and she wasn’t familiar with the techniques, the absolute power was enough to easily destroy those people.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of martial artists from the Snow Province who had followed Fang Xiaoan were wiped out.

Those people, the strongest and the last force of the Tranquility Academy, were all killed.

Fang Xiaoan had planned and schemed to end their enemies in one stroke: killing Ding Hao with the help of the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect. He didn’t expect his plans would backfire; he had sent out all his trusted subordinates yet got them all killed by Li Lan.

Fang Xiaoan grew despondent while he was subdued in The Mighty’s hand.

He struggled madly. Sadly, the stone palm seemed to be made of divine materials. Even with his strength, he wasn’t even able to leave a trace on the rock, let alone break away from it and escape. In the end, Fang Xiaoan stopped in despair.

If he could turn back time, he would have definitely accepted Li Lan’s challenge.

At the very least, he could have fought to the death, which would be a glorious way to die for a warrior.

Unfortunately, he himself had rejected that final glory.

“He who is unjust is doomed to destruction. Fang Xiaoan, do you regret it?”

Li Lan was in a silver stone room inside The Mighty, staring at Fang Xiaoan in its hand.

When Ding Hao handed her the stone puppet, he called this room the control platform. Its stone wall flashed with silver patterns. The place was like a fully furnished small palace. Having connected her divine senses with the initial consciousness of the stone puppet, Li Lan could clearly see everything in the outside world, as if she were seeing everything with her own eyes.

“If you want to kill me, then do it now,” Fang Xiaoan sneered and said, “What’s there to regret? If I didn’t do it in advance, your father would have destroyed the Tranquility Academy sooner or later. At that time, we would also die.”

“You’re wrong. My father’s lifelong wish was to revitalize the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. He never thought of starting a war inside the Human Tribe in Snow Province, nor has he thought of destroying the Tranquility Academy. The rise of a sect doesn’t necessarily mean the destruction of other sects.” Li Lan looked at the former overlord of Snow Province in her hands with pity. “You are the one who has been corrupted by greed and killing. Maybe you have always been a demon in disguise and only revealed your true self recently?”

Fang Xiaoan was dumbfounded.

He would have felt relieved if Li Lan had cursed him fiercely using the most vicious words in the world.

But then, such a pitiful and sarcastic tone made him feel like a pathetic soul.

After a pause, Fang Xiaoan gritted his teeth and refuted, “It’s no use saying more. At least I defeated Li Jianyi in the end. Haha, he was betrayed by his most trusted fellow disciples, and even the old guy Qi Qingshan was unable to die in peace. Haha, that’s enough for me… If I die in your hands today, it will only be because of Ding Hao, the miraculous man. I guess this Puppet of War was also made by him.”

“You won?” Li Lan sneered and said, “How pitiful. It seems that you haven’t figured out what happened on that night of bloodshed.”

Li Lan slightly raised her head towards the sky, unaware that tears were trickling down her eyes.

She slowly told him about Li Jianyi, Tang Folei, and Qi Qingshan’s heartrending sacrifice.
