Chapter 920, God Slaying!

Translator: Silavin

 

The people of this small city spent countless Humans and material resources every year trying to eradicate the Flame Python Sect, but unfortunately with minimal effect.

 

After all, Heretical Cults were something that could never truly be eliminated as long as their ‘Divine Being’ remained in existence.

 

Moreover, every member of the Heretical Cult were at least in their Second Profession, with some leaders even exceeding their Third Profession!

 

Thus, the Flame Python Sect clung like a parasitic maggot to bone, utterly impossible to remove. Even though they knew a Divine Being might exist near this city, Dragon Country found it difficult to eliminate it.

 

After all, Divine Beings possessed strength above a Fifth Profession Player, and Dragon Country had far too few individuals capable of slaying these Divine Beings.

 

Consequently, this Divine Being lived quite comfortably here, receiving over a thousand young boys and girls from the Heretical Sect’s followers every year.

 

Upon learning of this situation, Lu Fan naturally could not sit idly by.

 

The Divine Being that others could not destroy was, to him, the finest tonic!

 

And so, he came.

 

The moment he arrived, he locked onto this Divine Being known as the ‘Flame God’ using his spiritual threads.

 

The instant the Flame God was locked onto by Lu Fan, it sensed the existence of great danger and immediately fled from an underground palace constructed from Human bones.

 

Lu Fan naturally would not let such an excellent prey escape. He immediately pursued it.

 

The Flame God was at a High Level with formidable strength. It had also committed numerous atrocities. It was absolutely perfect for him to hunt down.

 

In Dragon Country, not all Divine Beings were evil. Some Divine Beings bestowed blessings and protected the common people.

 

Such Divine Beings deserved their offerings, and Lu Fan could not simply demolish their temples and drag out their guardian Divine Beings to slaughter for Experience Points.

 

But sinister and evil Divine Beings like the Flame God had to be eliminated.

 

During the chase, the Flame God had attempted to resist, turning to spit its breath attack at Lu Fan.

 

However, the moment it let out its breath, Lin Dong responded with a Dragon Breath, nearly freezing the Flame God into an ice sculpture.

 

Though the Flame God was a Divine Being, it was fundamentally a Fire Element Monster with extremely Low Resistance to Water and Ice Elements.

 

Forget Lu Fan’s other Pet Dragons. Lin Dong alone could thoroughly thrash it.

 

Thus, after the Flame God realised the vast gap in strength between itself and Lu Fan, it abandoned all delusions of killing Lu Fan and focused on escaping this calamity.

 

Whether it could even survive was uncertain.

 

Kill Lu Fan?

 

What a foolish dream.

 

The Flame God fled using every method, burrowing underground, soaring into the sky. It tried everything.

 

But Lu Fan’s spiritual threads locked firmly onto it, leaving no avenue of escape.

 

As for Teleportation Skills, the Flame God had tried those as well.

 

It was all useless.

 

Wherever it went, Lu Fan swiftly caught up.

 

Lu Fan even had Xing Chen demonstrate what true Teleportation looked like.

 

Even when the Flame God expended tremendous effort to open its own Secret Realm and hide within, Lu Fan still led his Pet Dragons in, brutally beating the Flame God senseless.

 

Now, the Flame God was truly chased to the point of resignation.

 

It even felt that Lu Fan could have killed it long ago.

 

The only reason he had not was because he wanted to play this cat-and-mouse game with it a bit longer.

 

The Flame God finally could no longer contain itself, roaring while fleeing. “That’s enough! I have no qualms or quarrel with you! Why are you pursuing me!? I merely consumed some Humans! I worked hard to increase my Level and ultimately became a Divine Being, making me a superior being in this world! As a superior being, what does it matter if I consume some ants!? Isn’t this world built on survival of the fittest!?”

 

Lu Fan laughed heartily, declaring loudly. “You’re absolutely right. Its survival of the fittest. So let me ask you, am I strong or not? Are you weak or not? If that’s the case, then there’s no problem with me killing you, is there?”

 

“…” The Flame God fell silent.

 

Because it felt that Lu Fan’s words actually made some sense!

 

After a long silence, the Flame God spoke again. “Becoming a Divine Being wasn’t easy for me. Please show mercy and spare me. If you’re pursuing me because I devoured Humans and developed a Sect that provided me with them, I can promise never to do such things again. I’ll stay far from Human cities and only feed on Monsters. If Humans ever face trouble, you can find me at any time. I’m willing to fight for Humanity. I only beg you not to kill me. Anything else is negotiable!”

 

After a pause, the Flame God added. “Besides, you should know that all Divine Beings possess power transcending the World Mechanics. What Humans commonly call Divine Power. If you slay a Divine Being, you’ll certainly face retribution. That’s bad for both of us, isn’t it!?”

 

“Slay a Divine Being? Retribution?” Lu Fan smiled. “A mere snake that’s simply gained some Levels dares to truly pose as a God!? Forget about you. I’ve killed more than one Ancient God, and I’ve yet to see any divine retribution!”

 

Having said that, Lu Fan no longer had any intention of wasting time with the Flame God.

 

If he wanted, he could resolve this battle swiftly.

 

The reason he had pursued the Flame God for so long was because he had heard that when the Flame God killed Humans, it had its Cult members release them into its Forbidden Area.

 

It would then set up Barriers preventing the children from escaping, before enjoying a grand hunt within the Forbidden Area.

 

This way, it satisfied both its appetite and thoroughly enjoyed a deadly game.

 

Watching the children’s expressions of despair and panic was its greatest pleasure.

 

Lu Fan had wanted to let it properly experience what it was like to be hunted by a terrifying existence before death. This was its punishment before its death.

 

Now, that punishment should be sufficient.

 

Next came its fall!

 

“Lin Dong!” Lu Fan called out loudly. Lin Dong immediately understood, beating her wings powerfully as an ice wall a thousand metres high rose into the air, cutting off the Flame God’s escape route.

 

The Flame God crashed violently into the ice wall, attempting to break through and escape.

 

However, Lin Dong was now the same Level as Lu Fan, 125. She was only 15 Levels below the Flame God.

 

As a Dragon King, Lin Dong far surpassed the Flame God in capability.

 

If the Flame God could shatter Lin Dong’s ice wall, the Frost Dragon Clan might as well become the shame of all Giant Dragons.

 

With a thunderous boom, the ice wall trembled but did not crumble. Instead, the Flame God collided with a bloody, broken head, shrieking in agony.

 

“No! Please, spare me! I can become your Pet, fight for you! Just don’t kill me!!” The Flame God pleaded desperately.

 

To this, Lu Fan smiled. “Become my Pet? Do you think you’re worthy?”
