Even if Andro transformed into a rugged, lava giant with more impressive body strength than Wu Cheng, in front of Fang Yuan, it was just the difference between one more punch or one less.
With one punch, Fang Yuan shattered his granite shield, and with another punch, he broke his body. Andro was reduced to Andro paste.
He never understood why Fang Yuan saved his life one moment and then turned around to kill him the next...
If the King of Hell asked him, he wouldn't know how to answer.

"The Book of Good People" began writing wildly once again, but Fang Yuan's actions didn't stop for a second as he took another step forward and charged toward the nearest Ye Liena!
As Fang Yuan attacked, Ye Liena's spine shuddered with a bone-chilling cold, and the sunlight cast the shadow of her enemy into a towering, ominous beast. The ground beneath her feet cracked, and her escape route was completely blocked!
Having experienced Fang Yuan's speed before, she knew deep down that escaping was impossible!
She could only fight for a slim chance of survival!
At this thought, Ye Liena immediately gave up on fleeing and instead faced Fang Yuan directly. Her sword, like a comet falling from the sky, carried an unstoppable momentum as it lunged at him!
At that moment, her survival instinct forced her to unlock all her potential. She felt that this was undoubtedly the fastest, strongest strike of her life!
She suddenly understood why her master always said, "The way of the thrusting sword is not about piercing armor but about breaking through the void." This sword, piercing through more than just metal, seemed to make the very space around it tremble with her unyielding intent!
She had comprehended it!
"Even if Kunlun Mountain lies before me——"
Ye Liena laughed out loud: "I will make it feel the taste of my sword piercing its heart!"
However, facing Ye Liena's sword of insight, Fang Yuan didn't even glance at it. He simply made an incredibly simple movement—he stretched out his hand.
With five fingers gripping, the incoming sword was caught in his palm, and with a twist, the blade snapped like a dry twig.
This scene seemed like a mischievous child constantly provoking an adult with a toy sword, only to have the adult casually destroy it in the end.
Ye Liena's peak sword, the culmination of her life's training, was casually shattered by Fang Yuan with such ease.
In the air, only Fang Yuan's slightly mocking voice lingered:
"Why go to such lengths? It's not like this is real."
At that moment, Ye Liena's lofty ambitions were instantly shattered, and her Dao heart collapsed as well.
In the face of absolute power, her so-called battlefield enlightenment and breakthrough had turned into a sad joke.
The light in her eyes dimmed, and she had already given up on surviving. Yet, even as death loomed, one question continued to haunt her mind—
Who exactly was this master before her? He killed a Seven-Path expert like it was slaughtering pigs and dogs! The Icefield's intelligence network, which was said to be all-encompassing, had never mentioned such a person!
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Ye Liena's mind, and her pupils constricted. She exclaimed in shock, "I know! You're the Emperor! You're the Emperor of the Flame Kingdom!"
The mysterious Emperor of the Flame Kingdom, whose power was said to be unfathomable, was someone even the Icefield's intelligence network had barely touched upon. All they knew was that he was extremely powerful.
Now, everything made sense! The insufficient number of masters in the Flame Kingdom and the perilous situation in the vast seas—these were all resolved by the Emperor personally intervening!
"Guess right, but don't bother guessing in your next life."
Fang Yuan's tone was calm, as if stating something inconsequential. Before his words could finish, he suddenly kicked out with a whip-like leg, hitting Ye Liena's body like a cannonball!
Crack!
Ye Liena's body shattered like fragile porcelain, crashing to the ground. She didn't even last half a second before her body cracked and broke apart.
In an instant, Lin Yuefeng, Wu Cheng, Andro, and Ye Liena had all perished. Fang Yuan had already eliminated most of the enemies in this area. With the father and daughter of the Ruan family fleeing, only Simon remained in sight.
"The Emperor of the Flame Kingdom? Tsk, tsk, never thought I'd face an emperor this time..."
Simon's Adam's apple bobbed as he let out a hoarse laugh, tinged with the taste of rust: "But compared to an emperor, I think you resemble more of a demon!"
Fang Yuan's lips curled into a smile: "Even if I'm a demon, I should only exist in your heart!"
In the eyes of the people of the Flame Kingdom, he was truly the savior!
Another sonic boom rang out as the young man's figure suddenly disappeared from his position!
Seeing this, Simon couldn't catch the young man's figure, but he knew he was coming for him. He immediately retreated, his voice filled with fury: "You've been tricked!"
"Fall into the abyss!"
Simon pressed his right hand to the ground, and a magic circle appeared beneath him. Mysterious runes spread out, and the surrounding gravity intensified to an unimaginable degree. The soil for miles groaned under the strain.
The moment Fang Yuan stepped into the field, the entire space collapsed with a tremendous roar!
The sonic boom abruptly ceased, and the young man's figure in his dark robes slowed down as if a winged eagle had its wings clipped, and he ultimately sank deeply into the earth.
He succeeded!
Seeing this, Simon wiped away the cold sweat from his forehead, his muscles still twitching from the overuse of magic, and he finally gained a brief moment of respite.
Looking down from above, he gazed at Fang Yuan, half-submerged in the ground:
"Welcome to the world of doubled gravity!"
From the previous battle, Simon had noticed something: Fang Yuan was only good at close combat.
He had withstood the Holy Flame of the "Shaliya's Box" and his "Bright Ash Extinguishment" spell. With one punch, he killed a Seven-Path martial artist.
All of this stemmed from his incredibly exaggerated physique!
Simon admitted that in terms of body strength, he was completely inferior to Fang Yuan. However, in battles between strong opponents, it wasn't just about close combat!
His greatest expertise was gravity magic, which could completely counter Fang Yuan's strength!
When he used "Bright Ash Extinguishment," he had laid down layer after layer of gravity magic arrays, waiting for Fang Yuan to fall right into his trap!
The stronger the body, the greater the mass, and the stronger the gravity effect!
With a body like his, even if he wasn't crushed by his own gravity, he would be completely immobilized!
