Chapter 652: 652
Howard felt that something was not right as Bennett seemed too certain of the cooperation between the Phoenix Society and EO . It was as if they had actually talked about it . He seemed to take some of the conditions for granted, as if Howard had not thought that he would reject the offer .

But Howard could not understand . Bennett had put forth such exorbitant conditions . What was he thinking?
Thus, Howard suddenly realized that there was a problem . What exactly the problem was, he did not know . But he had to make things clear!
Howard stamped his foot . The temperature of the air suddenly increased . The weeds underneath his feet had burnt to a crisp!
A circle of fire spread out from Howard’s body . Its power was frightening!
The subordinates who were by his side, were sent flying outwards by this circle of fire!
He did not retreat and rushed forth . Lu Shu was depressed . His character had been destroyed again…
When Lu Shu came out from the EO headquarters, he rushed towards where Howard was without stopping . On the way, he met one of Howard’s subordinates and killed him . After that, Lu Shu naturally took on his appearance…
But this time, the character and the tone that he used was rather different from the subordinate . At first, Howard may not have realized as he was focused on Bennett . But once he noticed something, Lu Shu’s cover was blown .

But it did not matter . Lu Shu was out to kill!
The Heavenly Network did not make good progress overseas . One of the reasons was because the Phoenix Society and the Department of Faith Theory were too strong .
The large organizations once trapped the Heavenly Network at the borders as a form of check and balance . This was Howard’s style .
It could be said that Howard was one of the most active people in the realm of cultivation . The lights on stage were splendid, even blinding, and Howard was lightly dancing on this stage . His presence was very strong .
Earlier, the experts and the majority of the members of the Phoenix Society who had played along were sent to find “the expert who had stolen weapons” .
Thus, Howard was essentially alone now . Lu Shu could not help but think . If launching a sneak attack on Howard could land the Department of Faith Theory in some trouble, then it would ease the current competition for mineral resources . Furthermore, the pressure that the Heavenly Network faced overseas would decrease . They could just wait and see the conflict between the Department of Faith Theory and the Phoenix Society worsen .
Lu Shu knew that his character would definitely be destroyed this time . But he did not expect it to be destroyed so quickly . Howard should have concentrated all his hate on Bennett . Why did this happen…
But Lu Shu did not know that Howard had not realized the difference in his physique and voice . He even felt that his subordinate was very dishonest and had never been so lowly!

As the flame approached Lu Shu, Lu Shu’s celestial cloak immediately surrounded him . The bright shine of the stars engulfed Lu Shu’s body in the light . He charged towards Howard . Howard pointed to the sky and the fire phoenix flew out of Howard’s finger!
At this moment, the flame in Lu Shu’s heart jumped . Lu Shu did not think about this . But the fire phoenix suddenly shrunk and became a fire chicken…
Howard was speechless .
Howard did not know what had gone wrong . He suddenly felt as if the monarch of flames had arrived, while his own flame had acknowledged its allegiance to its monarch .
Some time ago, Liang Che had wanted to attack Lu Shu with his flames, but the flames involuntarily extinguished itself . Liang Che had thought he had used up all his magical energy . Lu Shu had thought so too…
But at that moment, Lu Shu suddenly realized that the flame in his heart was not so simple . It was as if it was of high social status in the domain of flames and lorded over its subjects .
“Who in the world are you,” asked Howard coldly . He was not an idiot . He definitely knew that he had been suppressed by some mysterious force . But… turning his fire phoenix into a fire chicken was too much bro?!
Was it his power or did he have a mythical object that could retrain the fire element? Howard felt that the latter was more believable . After all, there were no levels for a fire element awakening . Only Class B’s could suppress Class C’s . He was now a Class B expert . His enemy could not be a Class A, right?

There were no Class A fire element Metahumans . Even if his enemy was a Class A, why was he still toying around with him? Howard would have been dead a long time ago!
Furthermore… which Class A would be so bored to the extent that they would disguise themselves as others and come to disgust others?! Was he crazy?!
Lu Shu did not reply to Howard’s question . He came to kill Howard . In the end, he realized that he was born with the ability to restrain fire element Practitioners . This was like someone passing him a pillow when he wanted to take a nap!
Corpsedog and Concealed Arrow appeared with a roar . Lu Shu protected himself behind the two flying swords .
When he heard the roar of the flying swords, Howard knew that he and the Department of Faith Theory had guessed wrongly . It was not that the Heavenly King did not have anything up their sleeves . They had just been hiding it!
A Heavenly King had come!
In Howard’s eyes, all the Class B experts in the Heavenly Network were Heavenly Kings!
Howard finally understood many things . This Heavenly King was the one who threw the stinky tofu . This Heavenly King was the one who attacked the EO headquarters . This Heavenly King was the one who stole his and Francesco’s weapons . The sudden alliance between the EO and the Phoenix Society was also probably this Heavenly King’s doing .
But when he had all this sorted out, it was too late .
His fire element had been suppressed . Howard was only left with his physical power . He would not give in!
Howard once again pointed at the sky . He wanted to test whether his powers were still being suppressed . If Lu Shu was using a mythical object, most mythical objects could not continuously suppress the power of a Class B expert!
The next moment, another fire chicken dropped to the ground . It ran away clucking…
If Lu Shu was facing another Class B expert, no one knew who would die . But he had run into a fire type Practitioner!
Lu Shu’s two flying swords circled Howard . The physique of elemental experts were slightly weaker, thus Howard was no match for Lu Shu!
Howard knew that if he could not think of a way out, he would really die here . Since when did the Heavenly Network have a Heavenly King who was so good at disguise? Furthermore, he had so many methods to kill others!
Howard dodged the flying swords as he wildly ran for his life . He retrieved a bottle of scarlet red potion from his invisible storage equipment and poured it into his mouth . He had to protect his own life!
Other than unrivaled power, the Phoenix Society was famous for their scientific research in the realm of cultivation . Some said that the Phoenix Society had found a way to allow ordinary people to awaken with great success!
