For a moment, Light War General truly felt the urge to settle the matter by force. But the thought flashed by and vanished. He quickly recalled Fan Lang's recent accomplishments and had no choice but to consider carefully. Before even making a move, he was already thinking of backing down.
Mystic Black Heavenly King, Dragon Maiden Celestial, Great Brightness King, Myriad Transformations Divine Ancestor... one resounding name after another had been defeated or even slain by Fan Lang. Those achievements were downright terrifying.
If not for Fan Lang's intimidating presence, Light War General would have long since begun refining Void Bright Hall Shining Heaven. Why would he have waited until now without acting?
After suppressing his anger, Light War General said in a deep voice, "Alliance Leader Fan, one person can only occupy one Outer Heavens. This has been an immutable law since ancient times. No one can break it..."
Before Light War General could finish, Fan Lang turned his head and fixed the general behind him with a sharp gaze. "Why haven't you left?" he said, word by word.
That gaze was truly terrifying, and it was no empty show of force. The intimidation it contained was enough to make even first- and second-rate powerhouses of the universe shudder.
Light War General felt the danger of blades pressing against his back all over his body. Instinctively, he retreated sharply, putting distance between himself and Fan Lang. By the time he came to his senses, he had already backed away a great distance.
That retreat alone was beyond undoing. There was no way he could keep pretending to be tough now.
Light War General immediately lost heart. He knew his momentum had fallen behind, and that he would certainly suffer if they fought. Calling over an army was even less
