Battle Through the Heavens: Clan Leader, I'm sorry, now I just want to be a good person.

Sensing the terrifying aura surrounding Zhu Yan, Xiao Fan didn't hesitate any longer. "Crane Shadow in the Clouds!"

Battle energy flowed through Xiao Fan's hands and into the Thousand Flame Spear. Fiery red cracks gradually appeared on the Thousand Flame Spear, and a chilling aura surged around Xiao Fan.

Upon sensing Xiao Fan's presence, a hint of surprise flashed in Zhu Yan's eyes!

"This aura... it's a Tier 1 Battle Technique!"

Zhu Yan never expected that the seemingly unremarkable Xiao Fan would actually possess an Earth-rank battle technique. Unable to stop his technique, Zhu Yan roared, "I refuse to believe you can master an Earth-rank battle technique!"

Zhu Yan finished preparing his fighting technique and swung it towards Xiao Fan. Xiao Fan calmly watched Zhu Yan, and with a fierce swing of his Thousand Flame Spear glowing red, a pale red crane shadow rushed towards him.

"Wow!"

boom!

The collision of the two fighting techniques unleashed an astonishing explosion.

A small mushroom cloud rose from the epicenter of the explosion, and countless flames shot out from the blast center to both sides, igniting the surrounding debris. The entire battlefield was brought to a standstill by this sudden explosion.

A flicker of shock crossed Han Jue's eyes. "Young Master!"

Then they sped off in Xiao Fan's direction.

Smoke and dust filled the air at the epicenter of the explosion. As the smoke and dust dissipated, a figure gradually came into view.

Xiao Fan stood firmly in place, leaning on his spear. At the center of the explosion, a crater more than ten feet in diameter was formed. Zhu Yan lay in the crater, his clothes torn and his eyes flashing with despair, before he slowly lost his breath.

Xiao Fan relied on Earth-rank Dou Techniques, making him a five-star Great Dou Master. Naturally, his power surpassed Zhu Yan's, and the explosion was closer to Zhu Yan. In addition, Xiao Fan was able to withstand the attack of the explosion thanks to the Sea Heart Soft Armor. Zhu Yan, of course, could not withstand it.

With Zhu Yan's death, this battle is nearing its end.

Inside a secret room of the Iron Cavalry Mercenary Group.

Xiao Fan sat cross-legged on the bed, his hands forming a strange hand seal in front of his chest. His internal fighting spirit circulated slowly, and his body exuded a powerful aura.

Before long, Xiao Fan slowly opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in his deep eyes. He exhaled a breath of turbid air, and his aura gradually calmed down.

"This time, I helped the Iron Cavalry Mercenary Group unify Mo City. I never expected that my final battle with Zhu Yan would deepen my understanding of Yun Zhongheying."

Xiao Fan hadn't expected that during his final duel with Zhu Yan, after unleashing the Cloud Crane Shadow technique, this clash of their skills would give him a deeper understanding of the move, which was quite a significant gain.

Furthermore, with Zhu Yan dead, the Flame Mercenary Group was doomed and unable to resist the Iron Cavalry Mercenary Group's power. Therefore, Xiao Fan returned to the Iron Cavalry Mercenary Group ahead of schedule to digest his insights.

"System, view the panel!"
