Lin Fan finally understood that the Dark Hand from earlier was here to rescue the Dark Witch. The master of the Dark Hand had precisely calculated that Lin Fan would definitely dodge, allowing him to take the opportunity to rescue the Dark Witch while Lin Fan was evading.

Lin Fan stood quietly in the void, at this moment, his brows slightly furrowed.

"That one a moment ago was definitely an expert from the Dark Clan. However, due to various reasons, he is still in the Dark World and cannot descend into the Holy Soul Domain. Such a powerful being, once he descends into the Holy Soul Domain, it would be a catastrophe for the entire domain. It might even fall into his hands in the end."

Lin Fan was very concerned at this moment.

Lin Fan knew that the master of the Dark Hand was incredibly formidable.

Previously, Lin Fan considered himself invincible within the Ten Thousand Mountains.

However, through the brief encounter just now, Lin Fan realized that if the master of the Dark Hand descended upon the Ten Thousand Mountains, he still wouldn't be his match.

"The urgent task now is to rescue my Mei'er, then enhance my strength to prepare for the arrival of the Dark Clan!"

Quickly, Lin Fan had already made up his mind.

Gao Feiyan flew to Lin Fan's side, concernedly asking, "Lin Fan, are you alright?"

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I'm fine!"

Gao Feiyan said, "It was really terrifying. That figure was definitely an expert from the Dark Clan. I didn't expect that the Dark Clan would have such formidable experts?"

Gao Feiyan spoke with lingering fear.

After a pause, Gao Feiyan asked again, "By the way, Lin Fan, if the master of the Dark Hand descends upon the Ten Thousand Mountains, are you his match?"

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I am not his match!"

"What?"

Gao Feiyan exclaimed in surprise, "It seems that the experts of the Dark Clan are truly powerful. Hopefully, those experts won't descend into our Holy Soul Domain, otherwise we might be thrust into absolute danger, perhaps even facing the direct obliteration of the Human Clan!"

Lin Fan shook his head and said again, "It's impossible to prevent those experts of the Dark Clan from descending."

After a pause, Lin Fan continued, "If there are no accidents, a battle between our Human Clan and the Dark Clan is inevitable."

A City Lord stepped forward and respectfully said to Lin Fan, "Great Emperor, how should we deal with the remaining members of the Dark Clan here? Please give your instruction!"

Lin Fan's eyes slowly swept over the members of the Dark Clan.

After a long silence, Lin Fan spoke a single word: "Kill!"

"Kill!"

Instantly, everyone started to act, rushing towards the experts of the Dark Clan and killing them.

Although those of the Dark Clan were experts...

However...

The strength Lin Fan exhibited earlier left them feeling deeply unsettled. At this moment, before Lin Fan, they didn't even have the courage to fight back.

Moreover, their leader, the Dark Witch, had already abandoned them, further shattering their spirit.

Therefore, they basically offered no resistance.

Even if there was some resistance, it was very weak, essentially negligible.

"Ah... Ah... Ah..."

The screams rang out.

One by one, the experts of the Dark Clan were slain directly.

This place had turned into a slaughter ground.

Some Dark Clan experts attempted to leave by chariot.

However, they were trapped by Lin Fan using Divine Skills, rendering them unable to escape.

Ultimately, their lives were tragically left behind here.

By nightfall, the battle had ended.

Not only had they killed numerous experts from the Dark Clan in this battle, but more importantly, Lin Fan and his people had obtained a wealth of cultivation resources from the Dark Clan, as well as numerous chariots.

It's no exaggeration to say that Lin Fan now had the most chariots in the entire Holy Soul Domain.

"How is it? Have the statistics come out? What are the casualties on our side?"

Lin Fan sat at the top position, his eyes slowly sweeping over the crowd below, asking lightly.

Hu Feifan stepped forward and said, "Great Emperor, the statistics are all out. On our side, there were almost no deaths; although there are many injured, their injuries aren't severe. It won't be long before they fully recover!"

"Hmm!"

Lin Fan nodded, quite satisfied with the outcome of this battle.

Lin Fan then said, "Hu Feifan, you must find ways to treat the injured well. Remember, as long as their wounds can be healed, it doesn't matter how many resources are used."

"Yes!"

Hu Feifan replied respectfully, "Great Emperor, don't worry, I will certainly handle this matter well!"

Old Man Kumu stood up at this time and said, "By the way, Great Emperor, in this battle, our gains were quite rich. We acquired a lot of cultivation resources and many chariots. How should we distribute these resources?"

Lin Fan thought for a moment and said, "Let's do this: the cultivation resources gained today should be distributed among everyone present. As for the chariots..."

Pausing here, Lin Fan thought for a while and then said, "Each City Lord present may take one chariot back, which will become cultivation resources for your city. As for the remaining chariots, leave them here for future use!"

The City Lords present were all extremely delighted upon hearing Lin Fan's words.

Chariots!

Those were chariots!

Unexpectedly, even a small city like theirs could possess chariots?

At this time, they were deeply grateful to Lin Fan in their hearts.

They understood clearly that without Lin Fan, they would not have been able to acquire chariots; it was Lin Fan who led them to change.

They also realized that in the future, as long as they followed Lin Fan, things might only get better.

Previously, many of them still had allegiance to the Central Empire, and their attendance at Lin Fan's Emperor Ceremony today was merely out of fear of Lin Fan.

However, now, their hearts were genuinely loyal to Lin Fan.

At this time, Lin Fan waved his hand and said, "Alright, remember, let's not talk about the Dark Clan anymore. Let's continue discussing today's ceremony of my coronation as Emperor!"

Upon hearing Lin Fan say this, everyone quieted down.

At the same time, everyone looked at Lin Fan with curiosity, wondering what he would say next.
