"I heard the Dongfang family is the foremost family in this Tiansheng City. Your young master is indeed quite arrogant, vowing to keep me within Tiansheng City for the rest of my life, and that if I dare to step outside its gates, he'll make me wish I were dead?" Zhang Fan held the Ancestor Dongfang in his hand and said to Dongfang Xiang, who was cowering below.
Ancestor Dongfang's eyes split with rage, and he regretted his actions immensely. A powerhouse of this level, even if not a match for Immortal King Luohe, could easily kill a cultivator of the Tianyan realm with a mere gesture.
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. You wanted to fight me the moment we met, so I cannot spare either of you!" As soon as Zhang Fan finished speaking, boundless rules of the Great Dao emanated from his hands, piercing into Immortal King Dongfang and Dongfang Xiang, drawing out their souls before crushing them with a gentle squeeze.
With a resounding boom, the soul of a Tianyan realm powerhouse was easily annihilated by Zhang Fan. The surrounding Immortal Kings' scalps tingled. Such power was definitely that of a Chaos realm expert!
"Your Excellency is causing trouble in Luohe Domain, showing too little regard for my master, wouldn't you say?" A figure appeared on the street. Looking at the bloody scene, his eyes narrowed as he fixed his gaze on Zhang Fan.
"And who might you be?" Zhang Fan asked casually, dusting off his hands.
"I am Zhenhai Immortal King, the eldest disciple of Immortal King Luohe," the man replied proudly.
"Indeed, Immortal King Luohe's teaching standards are first-class. To have cultivated a disciple of the Chaos realm, you must be her pride and joy," Zhang Fan nodded slightly and added, "However, you'd best not fight me. If you perish, your master will likely be sad for a while."
"Such arrogance!" Zhenhai Immortal King had never encountered someone so audacious. He could tell the other party was a Chaos realm expert, and his aura was even more formidable than his own, yet he felt no fear.
For within Luohe Domain, besides his master, he could also command the Stellar Array covering thousands of light-years. Once the array's power was unleashed, he was confident in his ability to fight beyond his level.
Just as Zhenhai Immortal King was preparing to make a move, a voice interrupted him.
"Senior Brother, please hold your hand!"
Zhenhai Immortal King looked up and saw Ninth Junior Sister and Fourth Junior Brother flying over rapidly. Ninth Junior Sister, usually cool and composed, now displayed a hint of urgency.
Upon hearing this voice, Zhang Fan also turned his head. A figure that haunted his dreams was rapidly approaching and landed before him.
"It's Immortal Fairy Luoshui!"
The surrounding cultivators were ecstatic. They never expected to see the legendary Immortal Fairy Luoshui in Tiansheng City. Her graceful figure and peerless aura sent ripples through their hearts, even if many only saw her back.
However, what happened next stunned everyone into immobility.
The perpetrator who had just annihilated Ancestor Dongfang and Dongfang Xiang took a step forward and embraced Immortal Fairy Luoshui's slender waist.
"Luoshui, after traversing countless star systems, I finally see you." Zhang Fan held Qin Luoshui tightly in his arms, savoring the moment of tenderness.
Qin Luoshui also held Zhang Fan tightly. This day, she had waited for a long time as well.
The street fell into a brief silence. Everyone stared blankly at the scene, their minds struggling to process the events.
Zhenhai Immortal King was also stunned for a moment before asking, "Junior Sister, who is this person?"
"This is my Dao Companion, Zhang Fan," Qin Luoshui said, holding Zhang Fan's hand and smiling brilliantly.
The man who had followed Qin Luoshui was filled with jealousy. Having spent decades with his Junior Sister, he had never seen her display such a radiant smile.
"Junior Sister Luoshui, even if he is your Dao Companion, he cannot break Master's rules. You know Master's temper. If he pursues this matter, even my pleading might be in vain," Zhenhai Immortal King sighed.
Hearing this, Qin Luoshui's expression became a little unnatural. She knew her master very well, but at this moment, she cared about nothing else except being with Zhang Fan and pouring out their endless longing.
"If Immortal King Luohe wishes to pursue this, he can come find me. I will bear any consequences alone," Zhang Fan said, then took Qin Luoshui's hand and walked towards his parents.
"Father, Mother." Qin Luoshui had not expected Zhang Fan to bring their parents along.
"After parting ways on Earth, I never imagined we'd meet again on the other side of the star sea. Life is truly marvelous," Zhang Xing'an looked at his daughter-in-law, filled with emotion.
"Luoshui, this is my sister, Zhang Lueying," Zhang Fan introduced Qin Luoshui.
"Sister Luoshui." Zhang Lueying looked at the ethereal woman before her, her bright eyes filled with joy.
"Immortal King Luohe has arrived," Zhang Fan suddenly turned and looked towards the distant star sea.
As soon as he spoke, the heavenly rules of the entire Luohe Domain became active. One hundred and eight stars revolved, and formations inscribed with the rules of the Great Dao appeared. The Stellar Array was activated.
A beautiful woman in palace attire, adorned with a jeweled hairpin, descended from the star sea. Her chilling aura enveloped the entire Tiansheng Star. Countless cultivators knelt in reverence, welcoming the arrival of Immortal King Luohe.
The disciples of Immortal King Luohe exchanged glances, their expressions shifting slightly. Qin Luoshui's Fourth Senior Brother secretly rejoiced and quickly bowed.
"Greetings, Master!"
Qin Luoshui, standing beside Zhang Fan, also felt a touch of unease. She glanced at Zhang Fan with concern before also bowing.
Immortal King Luohe's face was shrouded as if by mist, making her appearance unclear. However, divine light flickered in Zhang Fan's eyes, allowing him to see through it at a glance.
"I never expected the renowned Immortal King Luohe to look so adorable. This is quite a surprise," Zhang Fan's opening remark stunned countless cultivators. Even Immortal King Luohe's disciples had never seen her true face.
Immortal King Luohe was dressed maturely but sported a baby face, which was why Zhang Fan dared to tease her.
"Audacious! My Master has personally arrived, and you dare to speak such nonsense!" Qin Luoshui's Fourth Senior Brother shouted sternly.
"Noisy!"
Zhang Fan waved his hand, directly sending the Fourth Senior Brother into the star sea, disappearing from everyone's sight.
The scene instantly became utterly silent. Immortal King Luohe herself had arrived, yet Zhang Fan dared to banish her disciple into a dark space right before her eyes. Such courage was indeed admirable, and also somewhat unsettling.
Immortal King Luohe stared at Zhang Fan, remaining silent. Countless thoughts raced through her mind, yet she found it unbelievable.
"Immortal King Luohe, you have activated this Stellar Array. Do you intend to fight me?" Zhang Fan challenged.
Immortal King Luohe did not answer, but instead asked, "You are Luoshui's Dao Companion?"
"Indeed," Zhang Fan nodded.
"Then do you know what the consequence is for breaking my rules in Luohe Domain?" Immortal King Luohe inquired.
Upon hearing this, many people felt a tightening in their chests. Was another battle about to erupt?
If a battle were to occur at the level of Immortal King Luohe, Luohe Domain itself would likely shatter, and countless stars would perish.
"Rules?" Zhang Fan's lips curled into a slight smile. "My rule is my rule. If you are not satisfied, would you like to try fighting me?"
"Very well. Do you dare to fight me in the star sea?" Immortal King Luohe smiled. She had not encountered such an interesting opponent in a long time.
"Why make things so complicated? I will use only one move. If you can break it, I shall submit to your judgment," Zhang Fan said.
"Good!" Immortal King Luohe readily agreed. She did not believe that at the peak of the Chaos realm, anyone could defeat her with a single move.
