"Attack!" Ye Fan shouted, lifting the Yuanhong Sword and charging at the Fire Qilin.

The Frost Ice Iron General, however, stood frozen, unable to accept this cruel reality.

Ye Fan engaged the Fire Qilin in battle. In my view, it’s not the Tianxiong Iron General who enslaved the Fire Qilin, but the other way around. He’s become too greedy, lost in his power, and has forgotten his true self. How can such a person be called a Martial Artist? He’s nothing more than a slave!

"Conquer the World!" Ye Fan roared, slashing at the Fire Qilin. The beast immediately spewed flames that bore down on him. When the flames collided with the Sword Qi, an explosion tore through the sky.

It was like a grand fireworks display, but I have no interest in admiring fireworks right now. Behind such beauty lies only terror! He executed the Returning to the Sect Sword strike. The Fire Qilin leaped up, concealed by the flames, and suddenly appeared right in front of him.

What?! I never expected the Fire Qilin to be so fast. Ye Fan was shocked. He quickly threw up a defense, but its body still slammed into him, pinning him down and forcing him toward the lava below.

The Frost Ice Iron General’s heart pounded with fear, yet he remained motionless, paralyzed by indecision. But I’m so worried about Ye Fan... If he’s pushed into the lava, will he be melted?

About five minutes later, the Fire Qilin suddenly burst out from the molten rock. "This is the fate of anyone who opposes me," it said mockingly. "In this world, no one can stop me!" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"King of Heaven!" the Frost Ice Iron General cried out, his heart shattering. If anything happens to Ye Fan, I’ll never be able to live with myself. He was sick with worry for Ye Fan’s safety.

But just then, the lava began to churn violently. The Fire Qilin glanced down, confident that its own lava could easily melt Ye Fan. With a sudden explosion, however, a blue figure surged upward. The blue phantom had appeared again.

"Wanxiang Divine Shield!" Ye Fan bellowed, striking out with his palm toward the Fire Qilin. The beast tried to clash head-on with the blue phantom, but the phantom was the very embodiment of immense strength. The Fire Qilin was swatted down by the phantom’s palm, sending it crashing back into the lava.

As the Wanxiang Divine Shield materialized once more, the Frost Ice Iron General breathed a sigh of relief. Others might not know how strong that move is, but I do. The fearsome Blood Demon Technique unleashed by the Cold Blood Iron General was shattered by that very attack. Indeed, it’s a symbol of peak power!

The Fire Qilin leaped up from the Flame Rock, seething with rage. It stirred the very lava, sending it cascading toward the blue phantom surrounding Ye Fan.

"Break!" Ye Fan shouted, urging the blue phantom to act. With the phantom’s move, the wave of lava instantly shattered and rained down.

The Fire Qilin roared.

ROAR!

With another howl, it charged at Ye Fan again. It’s using the same move again. How foolish.

"Ultimate!" Ye Fan bellowed, directing the blue phantom to seize the Fire Qilin’s horns. With a forceful fling, the phantom sent the beast crashing into the black rocks, which instantly shattered.

The Fire Qilin spewed towering flames that bore down on Ye Fan, their temperature staggeringly high. Worse still was the poison hidden within the fire; a single touch of the potent Flame Poison could kill a person instantly. This was the terror of the Fire Qilin. It had once arisen to disturb the peace of the Small World, and now, Ye Fan was its final obstacle. If it broke past Ye Fan, the Fire Qilin would be able to charge directly into the Secular World, and no one would be able to stop its destructive rampage.

Ye Fan quickly condensed the Wanxiang Divine Shield, blocking the terrifying heat. The great battle between them was destined to turn the Small World upside down. It was undoubtedly a fight between equals.

Without the Fire Qilin’s power, the Tianxiong Iron General would be no match for me. Ye Fan felt quite helpless. The Frost Ice Iron General should be helping me! But instead, he’s just standing there like a block of wood, not moving at all! This disappointed Ye Fan greatly. If he had just helped me restrain the Tianxiong Iron General, my chances of winning would be so much greater!

The Fire Qilin attacked again, this time entangling the blue phantom, intending to crush it with its tyrannical power. Although the blue phantom was formed from Ye Fan’s True Qi, it was impossible for the Fire Qilin to crush it. As the phantom was bound, Ye Fan was restricted along with it.

Ye Fan crossed his hands, concentrating his power.

"Break!"

With his loud shout, the blue phantom erupted with power, tearing the Fire Qilin to pieces. A giant born from power was destined to destroy its enemies with that same power.

The Fire Qilin’s body fell into the lava.

Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

When the Frost Ice Iron General saw Ye Fan tear the Fire Qilin apart, he felt conflicted. Although it wasn’t the outcome he wanted, he couldn’t deny the relief he felt, having been so worried for Ye Fan’s safety.

At that moment, Ye Fan cursed at him, "Damn it! Are you fucking serious? I fought my heart out, and you didn’t lift a finger! Don’t you realize that if the Fire Qilin had escaped, the first thing to be destroyed would have been your Small World?"

The Frost Ice Iron General said uncomfortably, "I know that’s what would have happened, but I’m sorry. When it comes to facing Brother Tianxiong, I really can’t bring myself to help you!"

Ye Fan almost fainted. What a crappy excuse! Thank god I already killed the Fire Qilin. Otherwise, I’d make sure he suffered dearly for this!

Ye Fan said, "Let’s go! The Fire Qilin is dead. The threat to this Small World has been eliminated."

The Frost Ice Iron General nodded, his heart a tangle of conflicting emotions.

Contradictory my ass! Ye Fan wanted to scream.

Just as the Frost Ice Iron General turned, he saw a giant hand of fire suddenly rise from the lava, grab Ye Fan, and drag him down.

I really let my guard down! I thought killing the Fire Qilin meant the battle was over, but I never imagined this wasn’t the end! He was dragged by the giant flaming hand into the hottest part of the lava.

"Slash!"

Ye Fan unleashed a domineering slash of Sword Qi, severing the flame hand, and quickly swam back to the surface. He landed atop the roiling flames and took a deep breath, but the fire around him suddenly flared violently, like a pile of tinder catching light. The surrounding temperature instantly doubled.

They were completely surrounded by flames, their retreat cut off.

Ye Fan drew the Yuanhong Sword and glared at the Frost Ice Iron General. "Don’t you fucking tell me you’re not going to help this time. If you don’t, I don’t know if I’ll die, but you definitely will!"
