“Sir, I’m sorry. I failed to protect Mr. Feng Zhoulong,” Sharjah lowered her head. Her face was filled with guilt and pain.

Mo Fan was puzzled. Did Feng Zhoulong somehow become a sacrifice in an unrelated fight?

No, that should not be the case. If Sharjah was an Archangel of the Sacred City, no one would have known her real identity, including Su Lu.

“There’s nothing to feel guilty about. Gabriel! You aren’t leaving here in one piece, nor are you going back to the Sacred City. This is the real Sacred City! You are truly an unexpected catch for me!” Su Lu burst out laughing.

Su Lu no longer had to put up a disguise.

What was this place? Dubai City, the headquarters of the Asia Magic Association!

It was his kingdom. He had control of every life that set foot into it!

Su Lu had only been planning to kill a bunch of magic scholars who might cause a commotion, especially Feng Zhoulong, who had invented Magic Fusion.

He was surprised when he found an Archangel disguised as an ordinary human among the scholars.

That person was Sharjah!

It was an unexpected discovery. The Archangels enforced laws across the world. Su Lu was doomed if she returned to the Sacred City with the information that he had killed the scholars who were capable of changing the world. He would have to fall out with the Sacred City earlier than he had expected.

Luckily, they were in Dubai.

Luckily, Su Lu had made sure he had a clean trail.

It was Su Lu who had killed the scholars. He did not want to leave any trail behind!

His direct involvement had prevented Sharjah from escaping. Otherwise, Sharjah could have easily escaped with Feng Zhoulong!

He might have risked his position as the Chairman of the Asia Magic Association if he exposed himself after failing to kill Feng Zhoulong and got on the wrong side of an Archangel who managed to return to the Sacred City, so he had shown himself once again.

He could easily cover up everything, since they were still in Dubai. Certain images might have spread on the Internet, but once he was done here, he could just find some excuses to cover up the truth. It did not matter if the people doubted him.

No matter what the people said, the only ones that could pose him a threat were the other four Continental Magic Associations and the Sacred City.

He did not have to explain himself to the general public. He had a superior status and unmatched strength.

He was no longer just a Councilman of the Asia Magic Association with many concerns and restraints. He was now the Chairman of it!

He was basically the king of Dubai City!

So what if he killed an Archangel of the Sacred City? Who would dare to fight him?

Once Su Lu was dead, Su Lu could even accuse the Sacred City that its Archangel had colluded with Mages who practiced evil arts!

Only the living could speak!

Mo Fan’s heart sank as he looked at the arrogant Su Lu.

The man was blatantly picking on them in broad daylight. He was a true dictator!

Perhaps the whole tower had already been corrupted from the base to the top. How could Feng Zhoulong possibly walk out of the place alive?

“Teacher, this is my fight. You should leave,” Sharjah said.

There was no escape. The possibility of her leaving Dubai City was extremely low. Most importantly, the various organizations that were searching for her were just as bad as Su Lu.

Their goal was to kill the Archangel inside Dubai City!

People had great respect for the Archangels because they maintained the order of the world, but the people in power wanted the Archangels to be gone, as no one at the top of the world wanted a pair of eyes watching them at all times.

A black tide was flowing into Dubai City from all directions after the Archangel’s identity was exposed.

They pretended they were clueless about what was going on, but they had completely surrounded the city.

They did not dare challenge the Archangel’s dignity, but they were holding her by the elbow and forcing her to fight alone.

Mo Fan was the only person willing to fight for her. He had gone as far as declaring war against the Asia Magic Association.

He was willing to risk his life. If she ran away and returned to the Sacred City, would she still be able to take down the corrupted tower?

Would she have enough power to overthrow them after she became a deserter?

It was better to put up a fight now! She would make them bleed, and break through the darkness!

If they wanted to kill her in Dubai City, she would make them pay the price for it!

Her book had completely turned golden. It was flipping through the pages until the last page.

Rose-gold feathers flew out of the book and circled Sharjah rapidly. Their oscillation gradually widened as the radius increased.

The rose-gold feathers finally formed a tornado covering half the sky of Dubai City. It was like the gate of Heavens had suddenly opened, allowing the people to witness the wonders within.

Golden ripples across in the sky like the surface of a lake, each emitting a stronger Aura than the previous one.

Sharjah was bathed in the sacred light. The rose-gold feathers gathered on her back.

The wings spread slowly, countless feathers stacking up, granting her a noble and dazzling appearance.

Mo Fan had a great impression of Sharjah when he saw her the first time. She had a mystical temperament, something like an elf. It was even stronger after she revealed her true appearance, giving people the urge to kneel down and worship her.

It was not exaggerating to describe her as a goddess!

While Mo Fan was dazzled by Sharjah’s transformation, dark clouds suddenly appeared above the sky that was covered in golden ripples. A pair of enormous claws reached out from the clouds.

It was like a predator reaching its claws into the pond to catch a golden carp in it before taking off into the sky!

“Look out!”

The rose-golden angel was dragged into the clouds before Mo Fan could react, leaving Mo Fan and the people of the whole city trembling in fear!

Black claws the size of mountains! Its size was huge enough to cover the whole center of the city!

It had appeared out of nowhere and taken off higher into the sky like a bird of prey. Its Aura was as overwhelming as a black sandstorm in the desert.

“A…black dragon…”

“It’s the Black Dragon Emperor!”

Mo Fan felt like his soul was about to perish.

Even though it was not his first encounter with the creature at the apex, its claws had barely missed Mo Fan.

He was only alive because the Black Dragon Emperor was targeting Sharjah!
