The sudden appearance of Lan Jing made Huang Ze's expression tense.
Originally, he intended to kill Ye Fan to avenge Elder Yuan's grandson, Yuan Mo. He also wanted to prevent the Tianxuan Sect from gaining another exceptionally qualified disciple who might threaten the position of the Huangji Sect in the future. Taking advantage of Ye Fan's cultivation before it fully matures, he planned to kill Ye Fan.
Huang Ze examined Lan Jing's cultivation, but surprisingly, he could not discern anything substantial from her.
Huang Ze did not believe that a girl could have cultivation higher than his mid-stage grand mastery; he only saw Lan Jing as an ordinary mortal girl.
"You wretched girl, if you want to protect him, you'll have to be buried with him!" Huang Ze sneered coldly, choosing not to use weapons, aiming to kill Ye Fan instantly.
Ye Fan instinctively pushed Lan Jing aside, shouting, "Get away, it's dangerous here!"
