Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

Page 401

Looking down at Xiao Fan, who sat on the throne and stared at him as if he were a clown, Lei Zunzhe's killing intent towards Xiao Fan intensified.

"A charlatan, utterly pathetic!"

Lei Zun Zhe looked at the dragon shadow under Xiao Fan and let out a cold snort. Then he reached out and threw his hundred-foot-long thunder spear, which instantly struck the dragon head where Xiao Fan was like a divine punishment, and nailed it down!

Xiao Fan leaned back in his chair, tilting his head slightly as he looked at the lightning spear hurtling down from above. Dark cracks appeared in mid-air due to the terrifying power carried by the spear, and the terrifying power directly sealed off the space around Xiao Fan. At this moment, even if he wanted to use spatial power to teleport away, he couldn't control the spatial power well because of the chaotic spatial power around him. If he risked communicating, the most likely outcome would be that he would fall into the void and lose his way.

but............

Despite the terrifying power of Thunder Venerable, Xiao Fan's expression remained unchanged. After all, although Thunder Venerable's attack was terrifying, in Xiao Fan's perception...

Nothing more than that!

"Dragon's Ultimate Battle Dance!"

"Ang~"

Xiao Fan sat on the throne and gave a soft shout. The dark dragon shadow beneath him instantly let out a dragon's roar.

Immediately, a dark dragon shadow coiled out, roaring, and twisted its massive body as it approached the falling lightning spear.

Soon, under the watchful gaze of the Thunder Venerable, the dark dragon shadow made contact with the thunder spear; however, the energy explosion he had anticipated did not occur...

"Ok?"

Lei Zun, who wanted to witness Xiao Fan's death with his own eyes, noticed the strange changes below. His brows furrowed, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. Thunderous power enveloped his eyes as he once again probed downwards.

Below, the lightning spear, originally a hundred feet in size, was surrounded by a dark dragon shadow. The dragon shadow's massive body twisted and contorted, completely enveloping the lightning spear. On the outside of the lightning spear, visible to the naked eye, streaks of dark energy locked it firmly within. The dragon shadow continued to circle, and a dark hole appeared in the center of the space where the dragon shadow circled, landing directly below the lightning spear.

The lightning spear was imprisoned by dark energy, and its terrifying lightning power was constantly being drawn out and merged into the dark void below...

"What a strange method..."

Looking at the scene below, Thunder Venerable's face showed a look of confusion. His eyes carefully examined the black energy that was imprisoning the Thunder Spear. With his keen eyesight, he could naturally see that the black energy was the main reason why Xiao Fan was able to suppress the Thunder Spear's burst of power and continuously extract its strength...

"It seems you're hiding quite a few secrets..."

Lei Zunzhe stood in mid-air, facing the constantly weakening lightning spears below. His emotions did not change in the slightest; he simply kept observing Xiao Fan below.

After this brief outburst, Lei Zunzhe released all the emotions he had accumulated from fighting Xiao Fan, and regained his senses.

With their battle having progressed to this point, Venerable Lei understood that his mission had long since ended.

His original mission was to enter Pearl City and find an opportunity to attack Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan. At that time, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan would also launch an attack. Unfortunately, before he even entered the city, Xiao Fan discovered his whereabouts. At this point, his only mission was to hold off Xiao Fan.

As long as he can hold off Xiao Fan, who is at the Dou Zun realm, then Xiao Yan and that little girl will naturally be dealt with by the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.

only............

For some reason, it seems the Heavenly Phoenix Clan also failed...

However, Venerable Lei believed that his mission was complete, and he wondered what secrets Xiao Fan might still be hiding. But Venerable Lei, having reached his current level, was not the kind of person with excessive curiosity. As for the secrets on Xiao Fan, weren't they also the reason why the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan would target him?

Looking down at Xiao Fan, Lei Zun Zhe knew that he could no longer defeat Xiao Fan, just as Xiao Fan could not kill him. If the two of them continued to fight, they would only be locked in a stalemate.

"boom!"

Just as Lei Zunzhe was about to turn and leave, the spatial power suddenly intensified, and then a vast power of lightning attribute erupted from the void, striking the mountain range below Lei Zunzhe.

"........."

Lei Zun Zhe turned around, looked at Xiao Fan with an embarrassed smile, and did not say anything.

"Uh...sorry, sorry. It was my first time trying, and I didn't expect my spatial power to fail to locate you. Next time, I'll be more careful and make sure you're reduced to ashes in one hit..."

Xiao Fan looked at Lei Zunzhe and gave him a "kind" smile, like a shy boy, as he grinned at Lei Zunzhe.

That was his attempt just now. He used the Dragon Extreme Battle Dance to extract the power from the Thunder Venerable's Thunder Spear and temporarily stored it in the "void" formed in the center. Then, as the energy overflowed from the "void" and was about to explode, he used the power of space to open a hole, allowing all the power inside to pour out.

It's a pity that because their battle took place in the ancient past, the spatial energy in the surrounding space had become quite chaotic. This caused Xiao Fan to misjudge the target when using his spatial energy, resulting in his attack landing directly below Lei Zunzhe. Otherwise, he could have dealt another blow to Lei Zunzhe...

Seeing Xiao Fan's cheeky expression, Thunder Venerable took a deep breath, glanced at Xiao Fan, suppressed his anger, and turned to leave.

Xiao Fan watched the departing Thunder Venerable and sighed inwardly.

The reason he had been delayed and beaten for so long was that he wanted to completely get rid of the troublesome Thunder Venerable. However, he knew that there must still be powerful members of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan around Pearl City. Therefore, even though he used the "Nine Transformations of the Radiant Sun", he did not dare to use it too much. He only raised his strength to the peak of the two-star Dou Zun and then stopped. He then acted while slowly attracting Thunder Venerable away from Pearl City and into the mountains.

Along the way, Xiao Fan was certain that no one from the Heavenly Phoenix Clan was tracking him. That's why Xiao Fan deliberately revealed so many secrets, hoping to lure Lei Zunzhe to stay here and kill him, a mere kid who could only exert the strength of a two-star Dou Zun at most.

Then, according to Xiao Fan's plan, after the two fought, he would immediately use the Nine Transformations of the Radiant Sun to enhance his strength and directly use the Five Wheels of Fire Technique to completely kill Lei Zun here.

Xiao Fan hadn't expected that in the end, Lei Zun Zhe wouldn't be affected by him and would eventually suppress his curiosity and leave.

Xiao Fan looked down at the hundreds-of-meters-wide chasm of lightning that had been created by his redirected attack, and a hint of helplessness appeared on his face.

Could it be that I didn't act well?

Even he deliberately missed this attack, so why didn't Thunder Venerable try it out...?

Shaking his head helplessly, Xiao Fan simply extinguished the fire that had been ignited by the roar of energy, since this was a remote mountain range. Then, he turned around and disappeared from the spot.

As for restoring the landscape... who cares?

................

Inside Mingzhu City.

"Sir, we haven't found the target..."

Inside the courtyard, figures stepped in one after another, cautiously reporting the progress of the information they had obtained to the masked youth in the center, and then stood aside without daring to make a sound.

As groups of people entered to report their results, the atmosphere in the courtyard would become somewhat somber.

The surrounding air seemed to freeze.

"Squeak~"

Just then, the tightly closed door creaked open again, and several figures walked in. Unlike the previous group, they were far less cautious. Their eyes flashed with disdain as they glanced at the wary figures around them. They walked straight to the masked youth, shook their heads, and said calmly, "Captain, still nothing; it was Xiao Fan who killed Feng Qing'er and the execution team, so the Soul Stones are ineffective against Xiao Yan and the others..."

Upon hearing this, the masked youth nodded slightly, his eyes half-closed, without saying anything more.

"Xiao Yan and that...that target must have hidden themselves immediately while Lei Zun and Xiao Fan were fighting. By the time we arrived, they had already disappeared without a trace."

"Afterwards, we searched the surrounding area with the Soul Stone, but we couldn't find any trace of Xiao Yan and the others. Our spies around their inn also didn't see them appear..."

As the people who entered spoke, the atmosphere in the courtyard became even more tense.

"So... with so many of you, you couldn't even keep an eye on two people?"

Finally, the masked youth's cold voice rang out. Though his tone was calm, the atmosphere in the entire courtyard sombered as he spoke, and even the space itself seemed to freeze...

As everyone remained frozen in place, a faint spatial ripple appeared, and a figure materialized in the courtyard…

Chapter 150 The Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan Still Has Many Good People

The figure that appeared in the courtyard was none other than Lei Zun Zhe, who had just fought with Xiao Fan.

At this moment, however, Venerable Lei's expression was somewhat gloomy.

Upon seeing the Thunder Venerable appear, the few members of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan who had been so arrogant moments before subtly revealed a hint of mockery in their eyes, but due to the masked youth's imposing presence, they didn't show it at all...

"Oh? Lord Lei, have you already dealt with Xiao Fan?"

Upon seeing Lei Zunzhe appear, the masked youth sitting in the chair seemed somewhat surprised. He slightly raised his head, glanced at Lei Zunzhe, and asked curiously.

"No..."

Upon hearing the masked youth's question, Venerable Lei showed a hint of reluctance on his face, but then he did not hide his fight with Xiao Fan and spoke to the masked youth.

"Xiao Fan harbors many secrets and possesses numerous complex methods. Even I am not confident that I can capture him."

Lei Zun Zhe looked at the masked youth, shook his head, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Fan has many tricks up his sleeve. I discovered this during our fight. His soul power is extremely strong, and his fighting spirit is even more formidable."

"and''..........."

When Lei Zun Zhe said this, his tone also carried a hint of disbelief.

"Later, as we fought, Xiao Fan revealed the presence of four different kinds of strange flames..."

"Four kinds of strange flames?!"

As soon as Lei Zunzhe spoke, before the masked youth in the courtyard could even open his mouth, the middle member of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan standing beside him, who already showed contempt for those around him, immediately spoke up, interrupting Lei Zunzhe with a mocking expression.

"Lord Lei, you probably don't know what a strange fire is, do you?"

The middle-aged man had an unruly air about him, and his tone was full of sarcasm.

"Each type of strange fire is an extremely rare spiritual object in the world. For an ordinary person to find even one is already a blessing from heaven. Countless people are eyeing strange fires. For a human to possess four different strange fires is simply wishful thinking..."

Before the middle-aged man could finish speaking, a terrifying power erupted from the courtyard. A powerful aura surged forth instantly. The previously arrogant middle-aged man, upon sensing this power, revealed a look of terror on his face, staring in horror at the masked youth in the center of the courtyard.

"team leader..........."

"From now on, you are no longer a member of our group."

The masked middle-aged man remained calm, not even glancing at the other man. His gaze, however, remained fixed on Thunder Venerable. His calm voice rang out as he addressed Thunder Venerable: "You've worked hard. Leave Xiao Fan to us now. We'll need to rely more on the Wind and Thunder Pavilion's manpower to find information about them..."

"Honored."

Lei Zunzhe smiled. He didn't pay much attention to the middle-aged man who had just been punished. As long as his own interests weren't harmed, the gazes or ridicule of others were insignificant to him...

After nodding slightly to the masked youth, Venerable Lei turned and walked out of the courtyard. His gaze fell on the resentful middle-aged man, a hint of mockery appearing on Venerable Lei's face, as if laughing at his complete lack of self-awareness…

After Lei Zunzhe left, the middle-aged man, looking apprehensive, looked up at the masked youth, his voice trembling slightly: "Captain... Captain?"

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, the masked youth asked with some confusion, "Didn't I already say that from now on you are no longer my team member? You should go back to your clan."
