Chapter 425, Third Tier Ancient Noble Family, Level 100 Divine Skill?

Translator: Silavin

 

After Loong Changkong’s death, the Huang Family Elder felt as if countless steel needles were piercing his back, causing him excruciating pain.

 

He knew the next to die would be him!

 

Sure enough, Lu Fan shifted his gaze toward the Huang Family Elder, his eyes playful, as he said, “Next, is your turn. What do you think is better? Should I turn you into my servant and have you personally kill all those you brought here, along with Huang Yutian? Or should your Huang Family be razed to the ground like the Loong Family?”

 

“You… you…” The Huang Family Elder shuddered, unable to control his trembling body. “You’re the Devil.”

 

Lu Fan laughed. “Haha, the Devil, eh? But, if I were truly the Devil, your Huang Family and Loong Family would have been gone long ago.”

 

“Look, I was being merciful by giving your two Ancient Noble Families a chance. A path to survive. It is unfortunate that you didn’t cherish it and even came to attack us. If you had sent resources to the Ye Family earlier, why would so many from your two Ancient Noble Families have to die today? Yes, their deaths are because of me, but do you really think you bear no responsibility? Ridiculous!”

 

As he spoke, Lu Fan gently snapped his fingers.

 

Immediately behind the Huang Family Elder, a massive creature silently emerged from nothingness. A wing as sharp as a blade already raised above his head. A single light slash would be enough to cut him in two.

 

Only after Ye Sha appeared did the Huang Family Elder become aware that this Pet Dragon, capable of instantly killing Loong Erhu, had been concealed beside him all this time.

 

He had no doubt that with a single command from Lu Fan, he would be beheaded.

 

The threat of death left him unable to move, cold sweat pouring like rain.

 

Lu Fan remained calm, saying lightly. “Since you are not willing to choose, then I’ll choose for you. I’m quite interested in seeing you, Huang Yutian, and the other Huang Family members slaughter all those in your Huang Family Residence. It would certainly be amusing. So, I’ll kill you first and turn you into my eternal servant.”

 

“Ye Sha, send him to…”

 

Before Lu Fan could finish the word ‘journey’, the Huang Family Elder became desperate and shouted, “You cannot kill me!”

 

“Oh?” Lu Fan asked with interest. “Why not?”

 

The Huang Family Elder gulped and said. “My… I mean, our Huang Family’s background is more powerful than you and the Ye Family realise! In fact, our Huang Family has a backer, a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family, the Ning Family!”

 

“A Second Tier Ancient Noble Family?” Lu Fan had an eyebrow slightly raised.

 

He had heard from Ye Wuxian that Ancient Noble Families were classified by Tiers.

 

Families like the Ye Family, Huang Family, and Loong Family were all Third Tier Ancient Noble Families, while deeper in the Western Border, there were other Forces far more powerful than these Third Tier Ancient Noble Families.

 

Seeing that Lu Fan seemed to understand something about Second Tier Ancient Noble Families, the Huang Family Elder relaxed slightly and said. “That’s right, a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family! Within Second Tier Ancient Noble Families, there are experts above Level 100! You should know that Level 100 and Level 99 represent a watershed. After breaking through to Level 100, although one still has not reached the Fifth Profession, which touches upon Divine Power, every Player will comprehend a Level 100 Divine Skill, resulting in a tremendous leap in strength!”

 

“It’s true that I am no match for you, but a Player above Level 100, who has comprehended a Level 100 Divine Skill, might not be the case!”

 

[A Level 100 Divine Skill?] It was the first time Lu Fan heard of it.

 

Even Ye Wuxian could not clearly explain what changes would occur once a Player reaches Level 100.

 

But now, it seemed like the Huang Family Elder must have had contact with Level 100 Players, as he knew that Players would comprehend Level 100 Divine Skills after reaching Level 100.

 

Seeing Lu Fan deep in thought, the Huang Family Elder believed Lu Fan was quite wary of those that reached Level 100. Thus, his expression was no longer as fearful as before, and he continued, “Previously, when our Huang Family’s Players were exploring, they discovered a Map called Earth Core Magma Cave. This Map produces a very rare material called Earth Core. Later, this matter spread deeper into the Western Border and it came to the Ning Family’s attention. The Ning Family has a great need for Earth Cores, so they ordered our Huang Family to mine Earth Cores for them.”

 

At this point, the Huang Family Elder’s face became somewhat unpleasant.

 

Because no matter how he tried to disguise it, Lu Fan could tell that it was clearly the Ning Family coveting the Earth Core, ordering the Huang Family to act as miners to extract resources for them.

 

This was obviously trampling on the Huang Family’s face, deeply humiliating them. It was definitely not a matter they wanted to talk about.

 

But now, the Huang Family Elder needed to bring up the Ning Family to make Lu Fan wary, so he had no choice but to reveal this matter.

 

“Our Huang Family is quite important to the Ning Family. If you really wipe out our Huang Family, the Ning Family will definitely not let you off! Can you imagine the consequences of provoking a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family!?”

 

After the Huang Family Elder finished speaking, Lu Fan glanced at him, with unmistakable mockery in his smile.

 

“Is it your Huang Family that’s important to the Ning Family, or is it the Earth Cores?” Lu Fan’s single question left the Huang Family Elder speechless.

 

Because the truth was exactly so. The Ning Family did not care whether it was the Huang Family mining the Earth Cores; they only cared about whether someone was supplying them with Earth Cores.

 

The Huang Family Elder’s final reliance was easily seen through by Lu Fan. He immediately deflated like a punctured balloon, not knowing what to say to ensure his and the Huang Family’s survival.

 

Lu Fan did not intend to give him a chance to find another reason. He waved his hand and said, “Besides, whatever Second Tier Ancient Noble Family they are, they might be able to trample over your Huang Family, but they can’t trample over me! After I gather all the resources from your Huang Family, then the Earth Core Magma Cave will also be owned by the Ye Family. If the Ning Family wants the Ye Family to mine it for them, I don’t mind wiping out the Ning Family as well!”

 

“Right now, why don’t you go down there first and wait to see if anyone from the Ning Family accompanies you there.”

 

As Lu Fan’s words fell, the Huang Family Elder seemed to understand something and hurriedly cried out: “No! Please, spare…”

 

*Swoosh!*

 

The sound of a blade cutting through flesh rang out. Ye Sha silently used his wing to cut the Huang Family Elder in two, instantly killing him.

 

Lu Fan did not place too much attention on the Huang Family Elder. He just looked around and found that today’s battle was now coming to an end.
