In the next instant, Wayne Ling stepped forward, and the aura of a Fusion-stage master erupted, forming a tangible stream of force that crashed down on Ian Song. Wayne gritted his teeth and said, "Kid, do you know who I am?"
"Just a shameless bastard," Ian replied with a mocking tone. As for Wayne's oppressive aura, it didn't affect him in the slightest.
Wayne's face turned iron blue at those words. He spat out each word: "Kid, you're dead today!"
Before he finished speaking, Wayne strode through the air, a zhang-long purple-gold lance appearing in his hand. As he swung the lance, a surge of overwhelming power erupted, transforming into a roaring purple dragon that charged at Ian.
Seeing this, Ian merely lifted his gaze.
Just as the purple dragon was about to crash into him, Ian abruptly pointed out with one finger.
It looked like an ordinary gesture, but his finger landed right on the dragon's brow. In the next moment, the furious purple dragon instantly dissipated, leaving only Ian's fingertip lightly touching the purple-gold lance.
"How is this possible? He's only late Soul-Split, how could he take my attack so easily?"
Seeing this, Wayne was utterly shocked. He immediately channeled his true essence, pressing it into the purple-gold lance. Instantly, the lance flared with purple light, as if trying to crush Ian.
But at that moment, Wayne felt an incredibly pure force surge into the purple-gold lance, easily shattering his own power within the weapon and then crashing straight into his body.
Bang!
With a muffled groan, the force slammed Wayne flying.
He was knocked back several hundred meters before he barely managed to steady himself.
Seeing this, the yamen runners nearly cheered aloud.
Just then—
Crack, crack, crack!
Wayne's purple-gold lance shattered inch by inch, fragments falling to the ground.
Wayne's expression turned extremely ugly—after all, this purple-gold lance was a seven-grade spirit weapon he had forged at great expense, and now it was destroyed.
At the same time, he realized that the youth before him was truly unfathomable.
But to back down now would be too humiliating, so he glared at Ian with venom and said, "Kid, do you know what you're doing? You're going against the High Zhou imperial court, and no one who opposes the High Zhou court has ever come to a good end!"
