Hearing this, Lu Jun shot White Leopard a cold glance.
He slowly spoke his first sentence: "When you mingle with the Black Vatican, even the grandest ideals will rot beyond recognition once tainted by filth."
The moment these words fell, White Leopard's expression changed drastically, suspecting that the other party had already understood something.
Buzz—buzz—buzz!
In the next instant, Lu Jun moved. A silver blazing sun bloomed at his brow, and vast spiritual power surged out of his body as Space-Time Element Thought Control was unleashed.
Centered on him, a mountain-crushing shockwave exploded outward, sweeping in all directions. Ordinary people would die the instant they were touched by it, while silver ripples spread through the air.
Seeing this, the faces of the high-ranking figures present filled with terror. The mage bodyguards beside them reacted instantly, stepping forward at once.
Amid the flashing, multicolored magical radiance, each of them cast defensive magic to protect their employers.
Even so, the crowd was utterly unable to withstand the overwhelming power of Telekinesis. Dozens of people were hurled high into the air, then slammed down and rolled across the ground.
Fortunately, Lu Jun showed mercy at the last moment, dispersing the impact with gentle force so that no casualties were caused at the airport.
As for White Leopard, he was not so lucky—he bore the brunt of Lu Jun's power.
Caught completely off guard, he barely managed to raise a solid ice wall before being blasted high into the air, turning into a streak of lightning that thundered through several walls and flew out of the airport, vanishing from sight.
On the spot, all the passengers stood dumbfounded for a moment before screaming in panic. No one lingered to watch the spectacle; they clutched their heads and fled for their lives.
Boom!
With a thought, Lu Jun caused the massive airport to tremble violently. Fine cracks spread across the lofty ceiling of the main hall.
With a final thunderous roar, an entire section of the roof was torn away, turning the hall into an open-air space as sunlight poured down from above.
Immediately after, silver light flowed across Lu Jun's body as he slowly rose into the air, looking down at those officials and nobles below. He said indifferently, "I came this time with only one purpose, to wipe out the Black Vatican. It has nothing to do with you."
"Once the target is killed, I will leave on my own. I hope none of you will try to stop me."
He truly could not understand why the Brown Army chose to cooperate with the Black Vatican. Admittedly, the frenzied rain could drive tens of millions of people at the bottom into madness, causing a total eruption and even emboldening soldiers.
But fanaticism also meant uncontrollability. During the Brown Resistance Army's bid to seize power, the crimes they committed were horrifying to behold. Executioners with blood-soaked hands were hardly any better than the so-called New Federation.
This caused the Brown Army to lose the moral high ground it once held. Its radiance faded, leaving only the naked reality of winner takes all.
Even if it succeeded in the future, its legitimacy would be flawed, and backlash would come sooner or later.
After speaking these words, Lu Jun immediately took his sister and the other women with him, soaring into the air. Standing high above, he surveyed the city and traced Wu Ku's mark.
A moment later, Lu Jun raised his head toward a forest outside the city and murmured, "Not in the city temple… in the tropical rainforest outside the city?"
He could not be bothered with anything else. His entire body flared with silver light as he transformed into a silver streak, slicing rapidly across the sky, a sharp whistling echoing through the void.
Below, White Leopard struggled to his feet amid the ruins outside the airport, his face twisted with rage as he growled, "Damn you, Lu Jun!"
Gazing up at the three streaks disappearing into the sky, White Leopard realized he had no flying magic element and could not pursue them. He activated his communicator and contacted Nanzo. "Leader, the entanglement plan has failed. He's heading for your Sail Battalion."
As soon as the words were spoken, silence reigned on the other end for a long while. Then a voice filled with disbelief came through: "How could it be this fast?!"
White Leopard's expression darkened. He too had never seen someone act with such unrestrained arrogance.
Completely disregarding his courtesy, refusing to abide by a nation's rules, ignoring social repercussions, charging straight for the heart.
"Wait there and stall him," Nanzo paused before saying. "I'm heading over immediately."
If Lu Jun knew what they were thinking, he would only say it was too small-minded, far too small-minded.
Did they not see how, in the original timeline, Zhao Jing sought to seize the Earthly Pistil at any cost, uniting numerous clans to launch a massive mage war across Jiuzhou and destroy Fanxue Mountain?
The key point was that even if he had succeeded, there would have been little to no punishment.
That was what truly meant lawlessness.
Lu Jun had long since seen through it: in the magic world, power reigned supreme. Back when he had not fully grown, he naturally behaved cautiously and followed the rules—because the rules also protected him.
But now? His wings were fully grown. He had mastered multiple Super-tier methods. In terms of potential and cultivation, calling him a "Little Zhao Jing" was no exaggeration. Why should he still care about others' opinions?
The weak follow rules. The strong change them.
Besides, when he killed members of the Black Vatican, he stood firmly on the side of righteousness, with the masses rallying behind him.
Buzz—buzz—buzz!
Lu Jun and the other two arrived above a vast, humid, scorching rainforest. A mighty, winding river cut through the forest below.
Suddenly, frenzied sounds of insect wings beating rose from within the jungle. A massive, pitch-black swarm of venomous insects surged upward, blotting out the sky, endless and uncountable, spewing multicolored poisonous miasma.
At the same time, the wide river churned violently as mud and sand rolled. Large corpse crocodiles crawled out in great numbers, and countless undead revived throughout the rainforest, fixing the trio with resentful gazes. Torrents of baleful and vengeful aura intertwined and shot straight into the sky.
Seeing this, Lu Mei's expression turned grave as she said, "They're South American insect shamans and necromancers—the most troublesome and vicious of all."
Both women paled slightly. Poisonous insects and corpses carried an overwhelming visual impact.
Yet Lu Jun remained expressionless. He knew Nanzo's strength was immense; otherwise, he could never have instigated such a massive rebellion spanning several countries. If Nanzuo wanted to protect someone, he had never failed.
Insect shamans and necromancers were both forces that would emerge in future wars.
That was why Lu Jun had never considered slowly wearing down the local powers. Targeting Wu Ku directly was the correct choice. If Nanzo's forces were allowed to fully assemble, Lu Jun would probably need full Super-tier cultivation before daring to face an army of a hundred thousand alone.
At present, however, he did not take them seriously at all. He coldly shouted, "Get lost!"
Wuuuu—!
Dark radiance surged skyward from Lu Jun's body. Behind him, a vast and magnificent undead kingdom was faintly outlined in reflection. Death Element Basic-Tier Level Five magic [Necromancy · Command the Undead]!
A faint gray ripple rose around him and swept rapidly across the entire forest, amplified by the deterrence of the Ancient King's Armor Robe.
In an instant, the previously earth-shaking tropical rainforest fell completely still. Countless beasts, demons, and undead were seized by terror in their Souls, halting in their tracks. They broke free from the control of the necromancers behind the scenes and obediently retreated back into the river and the rainforest.
The scene was incomparably shocking, as if with a single shout from Lu Jun, thousands of troops had been forced to withdraw.
"Hmph!"
Muffled groans sounded from within the rainforest, undoubtedly the necromancers suffering backlash from their undead magic.
The insect shamans were affected far less, yet they were still deeply shaken by what they saw.
Gritting their teeth, they urged the swarms onward, and the sky-covering venomous insects lunged toward the three figures in midair.
Jun Yaojin swiftly layered blessing magic onto Lu Jun. Following his command, the blessings descended upon the moon-white Summoning Element.
Buzz—buzz—buzz!
Lu Jun calmly took out the Triangular Dimensional Mirror and controlled his star orbs. Within his spiritual universe, a moon-white river poured down two streams of amplification, one from the blessing magic and the other from the dimensional treasure.
