Under the white Holy Light, whether it was the blood-red arrows shooting towards Xu Fan or the roaring Blood Sea of the three Barons, it all lted away like snow in spring, vanishing to nothing at a visible pace.
The Jade Silkworm, which had been painstakingly searching for Essence Blood within the Blood Sea Domain, managed to catch the Essence Blood of the three Barons under the help of the Holy Light. Like a whale sucking water, it directly absorbed the Essence Blood clean and then swiftly returned to Xu Fan at a speed indistinguishable to the naked eye.
Pfft!
The three Barons' Blood Sea was broken, their Essence Blood devoured, and they spat out blood together at this mont. However, they had no heart to bother the Jade Silkworm now, instead glaring at the surrounding Holy Light with expressions of utter loathing, trembling.
The five Barons of Late Stage Vajra Realm were even more unable to support themselves, screaming and howling in pain as if they were being burned, clutching their chests.
"Xu Fan!"
Avril was, after all, just at the Entering Dao Realm level of strength. When she rushed towards the Barons earlier, she had held a determination to die, but Avril did not regret it. As for Xu Fan, Avril unexpectedly developed an indescribable feeling for him without knowing when.
That feeling was very strange, even Avril herself could not understand it, but what Avril knew clearly was that if she watched Xu Fan die, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
Seeing Arthur take action now, Avril no longer glanced at the Barons but rushed straight to Xu Fan's side, using the milky Holy Light in her hands to heal Xu Fan's injuries.
Avril's Holy Light, like a drizzle, washed over Xu Fan's scarred body, causing Xu Fan to relax involuntarily, and a trace of emotion flickered in his gaze towards Avril.
When Xu Fan first t Avril, the two always clashed due to their mismatched temperants, and Xu Fan had always regarded Avril as a childish brat.
But when Avril rushed toward him disregarding danger, Xu Fan finally realized that their relationship had long reached the point of living and dying together.
When facing Baron Nash, Xu Fan didn't retreat a step to protect Avril, and now, Avril was willing to risk herself for Xu Fan.
Arthur, watching the two looking at each other, couldn't help but feel a headache, but now Arthur had no ti to bother Xu Fan, instead turning his gaze towards the Barons in the scene.
The conflict between the Forces of Light and Dark Forces had been unending for thousands of years, never ceasing their killing of each other. The Dark Forces had not shown up before because of the presence of the Forces of Light.
Now, since Arthur had chosen to act, he naturally would not hold back. The powerful white Holy Light swept toward the eight Barons in the scene. The eight Barons scread in pain, their pale faces twisted with madness, and wisps of black smoke rose from their bodies, as if their entire being was about to be lted away!
Just as the eight Barons were about to be dissipated under the Holy Light, a sinister voice finally sounded, "Bishop Arthur, is this action your own decision, or that of the Forces of Light?"
This voice, of course, ca from Huang Wandi.
The reason Huang Wandi had not acted against Xu Fan previously was, first, because of the threat of an old and undying figure—a threat from a strong individual in the Zhiwei Realm, which even the Huang Family could hardly withstand. Besides, there seed to be a painful past between Huang Wandi and the old undying, and Huang Wandi did not want to offend the old undying to death.
Another reason was that Huang Wandi was certain Xu Fan was dood, so he kept his murderous intent in check and did not act.
But unexpectedly, Arthur, who had been sitting quietly without participating, suddenly took action, releasing the Holy Light to crush the Barons.
The Huang Family and the Dark Forces were already allies. In Huang Wandi's view, the fact that the Dark Forces hadn't shown up earlier was already giving Arthur enough face. Moreover, the transaction involving that key was also conducted through the Huang Family as a third-party interdiary.
Though the two forces were like water and fire, they could still distinguish primary matters from secondary ones in the face of significant issues.
But now, Arthur unexpectedly took action and even rescued the supposedly dood Xu Fan! This made Huang Wandi furious!
"This action is my decision, and it's also the decision of the Forces of Light." Arthur's voice was full of calm. "Light and darkness have been irreconcilable since ancient tis."
In fact, this was, of course, not Arthur's decision, nor was it the decision of the Forces of Light, but it was Avril's decision.
However, since Avril had already made her choice, Arthur could only stand firmly in front of Avril, shielding her from the wind and rain, as would the Forces of Light.
"Very well." Huang Wandi's entire face twisted with anger as he grimly spoke, "The conflict between the Forces of Light and the Dark Forces has no concern with the Huang Family. Similarly, the affairs of the Huang Family are not for the Forces of Light to interfere."
"Now, I intend to kill Xu Fan, Bishop Arthur, do you have any objections?"
Arthur, upon hearing Huang Wandi's words, was slightly taken aback, not expecting Huang Wandi to use his own words to bind him.
Just now, in saving Xu Fan, Arthur could cite the conflict between the Forces of Light and Dark Forces, but now, Huang Wandi had made it clear that he would not interfere with the conflict between the Forces of Light and Dark Forces, and neither would either party interfere with the affairs of the Huang Family, leaving Arthur no reason to protect Xu Fan further.
However, Avril had already taken an unwavering stand beside Xu Fan. If Arthur were to withdraw now, Avril would certainly not agree. But if he did not withdraw, offending the Huang Family was inevitable.
Sighing, Arthur directly spoke towards Huang Wandi, "Today, you cannot kill him."
A clamor erupted in the entire Huang Family hall. No one expected Arthur to openly tear face with the Huang Family for Xu Fan.
The crowd at present, looking at Xu Fan's figure, had grown sowhat numb.
This person seed unable to die, no matter what desperate situation he faced...
Huang Wandi obviously did not anticipate such an answer from Arthur, and his expression twisted into sothing terrifying.
Today, the Huang Family had suffered extre humiliation, not only having their wedding disrupted, Huang Siyuan directly killed, Xia Xiaodie's affection with Xu Fan deep, but they also lost several strong Vajra Realm cultivators.
More unbearable to Huang Wandi than the losses was the disgrace the Huang Family suffered in front of the world's cultivators.
And the root cause of it all was Xu Fan.
Thus, how could Xu Fan not die?
Huang Wandi's eyes fixated on Xu Fan, spiritual power swirling within him, murder intent surging.
However, at this mont, the old monk who had been silent all this ti suddenly spoke, "Benefactor Huang, today, truly, you cannot kill him."
