Chapter 107: Senior Brother Yang Qi, Senior Brother Ren Hao, Zhao Ming
Inside Jingchuan City.
All was peaceful; more than a month had passed since Xiao Fan killed the Immortal Palace Disciple.
The waters were calm, and nothing had happened. The previous rumors in the city had gradually faded, and the citizens had stopped insulting Xiao Fan and protesting against the Long family.
Half a month ago, another piece of news spread: the Long family's "matrilocal son-in-law," Xiao Fan, had left Jingchuan City to seek apprenticeship at the Jixian Sect!
Instantly, the entire Jingchuan City was in an uproar.
The Terror everyone spoke of…
The "trash" kicked out by the Xiao Family, the Long family's "matrilocal son-in-law," had actually left.
Recently, Xiao Fan had accomplished too many major feats in Jingchuan. First, he defeated the Long family's direct-line Genius Long Xiaotian, and then he killed the Immortal Palace Disciple, making him famous.
In contrast, Long Xiaotian's departure for the Thunder Fire Sect was only occasionally mentioned by a few people.
All his brilliance had been overshadowed by Xiao Fan alone.
The Long family had recently returned to business as usual.
All was harmonious within the Long Mansion.
However, at this moment, Long Anhai was discussing some important matters with various clan elders in the main hall.
"Is the news accurate? Are the Su Family Patriarch and all the clan elders really dead?" Long Anhai asked.
"It's absolutely true. It's said that they contacted many assassins some time ago. It's unclear who they intended to harm, but in the end, the Su Family Patriarch and the clan elders never returned…" the Long family's Third Elder said.
"A month ago…" Long Anhai murmured.
"Wasn't that exactly when Xiao Fan left!"
The surrounding elders suddenly realized, as the timing matched up.
"Could they have gone to assassinate Xiao Fan? It's very likely…"
"But why did not a single person return… and how is Xiao Fan doing now…"
"…"
The members of the Long family discussed amongst themselves…
Finally, they decided to keep this matter a secret for the time being and send someone to inquire about Xiao Fan's situation.
Over the past month, Long Miaoyin had returned to her old self, staying in her courtyard every day, only occasionally gazing toward the east in a daze…
Long Caiwei would come over whenever she was free to chat with Long Miaoyin.
Long Xiaotian was gone, and Xiao Fan had also left.
Long Yi had also been released by the Long family, but his state of mind was very strange at this time…
He was constantly in a state of fear and apprehension…
As if he had done something to weigh on his conscience.
…
On the other side, Xiao Fan had now spent a day and a night inside the Immortal Cave.
He had finished reading all the Jade Slips and had gained a general understanding of the Jixian Sect.
Not in a hurry to Cultivate, he rested in the Immortal Cave for a night. Vigorous spiritual energy surged through his body, making him feel extremely comfortable all over.
"It's just as Zhu Gang said… just sleeping can enhance spiritual energy and promote cultivation."
Xiao Fan's face was full of smiles; his injuries were basically healed, and his spiritual energy was completely restored.
The Spirit Medicines and Spiritual Plants within the star chart were one factor, but the rest was thanks to the dense Spiritual Qi within this Immortal Cave.
At this moment, the golden token inside Xiao Fan's Storage Pouch emitted a faint glow.
This meant someone had arrived outside the Immortal Cave.
"Who could it be…"
Xiao Fan murmured. He was a bit curious; he didn't know many people in the Jixian Sect, and he had just moved into the Immortal Cave. Aside from He Yutang, no one should know he was here…
The door of the Immortal Cave opened, and Xiao Fan strode out. Before him were three Outer Sect Disciples dressed in blue robes.
One of them Xiao Fan even recognized; it was the Outer Sect Disciple Zhao Ming, whom he had previously taught a lesson.
Although he didn't know what Zhao Ming and these people were here for… there was no need to think twice; it certainly wasn't anything good.
"Xiao Fan, now that you've seen your Senior Brothers, why haven't you come over to pay your respects…"
Seeing Xiao Fan appear, Zhao Ming immediately spoke with cold sarcasm.
The two blue-robed Disciples behind him fixed their gazes on Xiao Fan, sizing him up from head to toe.
"What are you doing here?"
Xiao Fan frowned, but he didn't lose his temper on the spot.
"Hehe…"
Seeing Xiao Fan like this, Zhao Ming didn't get angry and began to introduce the two blue-robed Outer Sect Disciples beside him.
"This is Senior Brother Yang Qi of the Outer Sect, and this is Senior Brother Ren Hao of the Outer Sect."
"I'll be blunt with you: Senior Brother Yang Qi has taken a liking to your Immortal Cave, and as for Senior Brother Ren Hao… he's interested in your eligibility to choose an Earth-Rank Cultivation Technique…"
Xiao Fan frowned and looked at the group with cold eyes, anger welling up in his heart…
Zhao Ming sneered and said, "Xiao Fan, clean up the Immortal Cave and hand it over to Senior Brother Yang Qi. Also, exchange for the Earth-Rank Cultivation Technique that Senior Brother Ren Hao wants and bring it over. Otherwise… hehe…"
The two named Senior Brother Yang Qi and Senior Brother Ren Hao also had playful expressions on their faces, their gazes fixed on Xiao Fan, waiting for his response.
"And what if I don't give them to you?"
Xiao Fan spoke coldly, his eyes icy and revealing a chilling glint.
