The Lu Astral Empire army just watched on in shock as the situation of the battle changed.
One moment, they had been fighting the Beast Race troops and the next…they were watching the Beast Race troops killing each other.
They didn't know how it happened, but one demon beast started attacking another and soon…it was like a wave came over them and they were all attacking each other. At the same time, the more demon beasts were taken out, the more demon beasts joined in attacking other demon beasts.
They could see that there was some kind of green mist that came out when the demon beasts attacked each other.
When this green mist came over the other demon beasts, they all suddenly lost control of themselves.
They didn't know what this green mist was…but they could tell that it was dangerous.
So when the fighting came close to them, they made sure that they did all that they could just so they could avoid this green mist.
However, even when the green mist came over them, they found that nothing happened to them.
Could it be that this green mist was something that only affected demon beasts?
But if it was…where did it come from and why did it only appear now?
The demon beasts kept killing each other without any remorse and soon there wasn't a single demon beast left.
There were a few of the Beast Race troops that had run away when they saw this slaughter, but there were few that had been able to get away. So in the end, there were many demon beast corpses that were just floating there.
In an instant, the fight had been over.
This long fight that they had been fighting for such a long time had been over just like this.
It felt surreal, it felt like this couldn't be true, it felt unbelievable.
They didn't know how to react to this at all.
This was the same for Lu Fei Yu who had been passing on the words of Lin Fan, teaching the Lu Astral Empire forces how to counter the Outer laws.
But unlike the others, when she saw the demon beasts killing each other and the green mist that they released, she immediately thought of Lin Fan.
She didn't know why she thought of Lin Fan right away, but she was almost certain that Lin Fan had something to do with this. She was willing to stake her life on this bet, that was how certain she was.
And it was confirmed after the fighting was over.
Lin Fan suddenly appeared in front of her and gathered everyone else from her group.
While Lu Fei Yu was still stunned, Lin Fan said, "Let's go. The fight is over, so let's head back to your capital. I have a few things I want to talk to the Lu Astral Emperor about."
Lu Fei Yu just looked at Lin Fan in a daze, almost not understanding just what he was saying.
But Lin Fan didn't give her a chance to come back to her senses.
His ship had already arrived, so he didn't waste any time in bringing Lu Fei Yu, her group, and his own subordinates onto the ship. Once they were all loaded on, the ship flew out without a care for the Lu Astral Empire troops.
The Lu Astral Empire troops were just left there in a daze after Lin Fan came and left like a whirlwind.
On the trip back, Lu Fei Yu finally reacted and was about to question Lin Fan on what he had done.
However, before she could do that, she noticed that there was someone that she didn't recognize on this ship.
But when she saw the power armour that he was in, she immediately knew that this person was an Outer.
Once she recognized this, she raised her guard against not only the Outer Expert, but also Lin Fan as she asked, "Young master Lin, what is the meaning of this? Are you colluding with the Outers now?"
Lin Fan just didn't care at all that she was wary of him and casually said, "I needed some information from the Outers, so I captured this one for that information."
Lu Fei Yu once again looked at him in shock and disbelief, unsure if she should believe his words.
But seeing the dazed look that was on the face of the Outer Expert, she could tell that he wasn't lying.
However, just how had he done this?
For the experts of their Lu Astral Empire, they hadn't been able to do a thing to the Outer Experts. It could even be said that the experts of the Lu Astral Empire had been at the mercy of the Outer Experts.
While the Ruler Realm Experts were at least able to fight back, that didn't mean that they were able to defeat these Outer Experts. At most, they were able to reach a draw with them and force them away.
So there was no need to mention defeating them, let alone trapping them like this.
Just how had Lin Fan done this?
No matter how Lu Fei Yu thought about it, she didn't think that Lin Fan should be capable of this.
But then again…Lin Fan had ended a battle that had already lasted over a year now for their Lu Astral Empire. He had done it all alone in just a few hours…
This was not something that a Ruler Realm Expert should be capable of…
Could it be that Lin Fan had already reached the God Realm?
The more that she thought about this, the more she felt that it was likely.
A God Realm Expert…that was the legendary realm that no one had reached in all this time.
If Lin Fan really was a God Realm Expert, it would explain everything that had happened.
After this thought passed through her mind, Lu Fei Yu couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with a renewed look of admiration.
Lin Fan didn't understand why she was looking at him like this, but he did want her to listen to what the Outer Realm Expert had to say. After all, this was a matter that wouldn't just affect the Lin Astral Empire, it would also affect the Lu Astral Empire.
They needed to cleanse these spies as soon as possible.
So Lin Fan turned to the Outer Expert and said, "Tell her what you told me before."
Lu Fei Yu was confused at first, but as she listened to the Outer Expert, her brows couldn't help knitting more and more.
That was because out of the names that the Outer Expert gave, there were some that she recognized.
The others she didn't recognize because they weren't that important in their Lu Astral Empire, but the ones that she did recognize were all ministers and generals of the Lu Astral Empire. These were the people that actually held power in the Lu Astral Empire, so if it was true that they were traitors…this was a very serious matter.
Once the Outer Expert had finished giving the list and fell silent again, Lu Fei Yu looked at Lin Fan and asked, "Young master Lin, is everything that he said true?"
Lin Fan just gave a slight nod before saying, "The technique that I'm using is one that reaches the very depths of a person's mind. So there's no way that they could ever lie to me."
Lu Fei Yu couldn't help knitting her brows even more when she heard this because this meant that the situation was much more serious than she thought.
There wasn't a single second where she doubted Lin Fan's words since she had already recognized him as a God Realm Expert in her mind. A God Realm Expert's abilities would be far beyond what a normal person could imagine, so she knew that it had to be something that she couldn't even think of.
After a long silence, Lu Fei Yu suddenly said, "We need to go back and warn my father. Only by removing these traitors can we take care of the hidden dangers to our Lu Astral Empire."
Lin Fan just gave a simple nod in response.
After all, the ship was already taking the fastest route back.
After a few transport gates, Lin Fan's ship arrived at the Lu Astral Empire's capital.
They had just set off this morning and now they were already back.
However, even though it was currently the evening, people had still gathered outside of the launch pad to cheer for them.
This time, they were much more passionate and invigorated with their cheering. It was clear that they had heard about what had happened on the battlefield.
Lin Fan was surprised that the Lu Astral Empire government would announce something like this so quickly, but he realized that it made sense after thinking about it. After all, the Lu Astral Empire had been suffering losses for the longest time.
Their morale was already at its lowest, so they needed something to boost it back up.
This kind of major victory was just the thing that they needed.
Though there were still some things about this welcome back that Lin Fan didn't like.
After all, these people were still using the expensive things to welcome them back with.
Lin Fan however didn't have any time for this and quickly headed to the palace.
When he arrived, he found that the Lu Astral Emperor and his ministers and generals were waiting for them.
It seemed that they had been gathered for a long time already with the state of the room.
