Chapter 2447: The Demon Emperor is Missing

After all, hosting the Arena was a job where one had to show their face, which truly wasn't very good.

However, Xiao Fan still felt puzzled, always feeling that things wouldn't be this simple…

Xiao Fan stroked his chin and walked up to a person from the Star Arena, asking, "Is the Grand Elder here?"

"Uh… who are you?" The person from the Star Arena was stunned. He looked up at Xiao Fan, froze for a few moments, and then said in shock, "Zhang… Zhang Ding, you're Zhang Ding?!"

"Uh… it's me." Xiao Fan nodded, his expression calm.

The commotion here immediately attracted many people nearby, and their gazes followed.

"Zhang Ding, it really is Zhang Ding!"

"How did he show up? Didn't that kid go missing?!"

"Strange, truly strange…"

"…"

Inside the Arena, a flurry of discussion immediately broke out.

Xiao Fan was puzzled; something felt off. Zhang Ding had indeed been missing for a long time, but why were these people reacting with such shock?

One had to know that with so many people entering and leaving the Star Arena every day, if only one Zhang Ding were missing, these people wouldn't act like this, would they?

"Zhang Ding… it really is you!" The person from the Star Arena still had a face full of shock.

"Cut the crap, what's going on?!" Xiao Fan asked in a low voice, "Where is Yao Yao from before? Where did she go?"

Xiao Fan had a bad premonition, worrying that something had happened to Yao Yao.

"This… Yao Yao was taken away." The person from the Star Arena spoke.

"Taken away?!" Xiao Fan was stunned. "Taken away by whom?"

"People from the Zhang family."

"What happened? Tell me everything from the beginning!" Xiao Fan's expression instantly turned cold.

The people from the Zhang family took Yao Yao away!

Are they looking for death?!

"This… actually, I don't know the specifics. It was very chaotic at the time. People from the Zhang family came looking for you, didn't find you, and then…" The person from the Star Arena spoke very disjointedly; he was just an ordinary Arena Guard, so it was normal that he didn't know the details.

"Is the Grand Elder here? Take me to see him!" Xiao Fan said deeply. It would be quite troublesome to try and learn the whole story from this person's mouth.

"He's… he's here!"

"Take me there!"

"I need to report first!"

"No need!"

"…"

The person from the Star Arena still intended to report, but how could Xiao Fan have the time? He directly grabbed the man's neck and ordered him to lead the way.

Fury burned in his heart; the Demon Emperor had actually met with trouble and been taken away by the Zhang family!

How could Xiao Fan not be angry?!

"This… alright, I'll take you!" The person from the Star Arena was terrified and immediately agreed.

Xiao Fan exhaled. If he weren't worried about exposing his identity, he would have already made a move.

The man led the way, taking Xiao Fan toward the Secret Room where the Grand Elder of the Star Arena was located.

…

Inside the magnificent, palace-like Secret Room.

"Zhang… Zhang Ding, you, where have you been all this time!" The Grand Elder of the Star Arena was shocked when he saw Xiao Fan.

One had to know that many years had passed since Xiao Fan left the Star Arena, and there hadn't been a single trace of him.

"Cut the nonsense. Where is Yao Yao? Why was she taken away by the Zhang family?" Xiao Fan's face was gloomy as he spoke coldly.

He was in no mood for nonsense with the Grand Elder of the Star Arena.

He had come here specifically to find Yao Yao, but she was gone.

"This… you have the nerve to say that? It was all because of you!" Hearing this, the Grand Elder of the Star Arena became anxious on the spot.

"What happened? Tell me everything from the beginning!" Xiao Fan was taken aback.

"You… after you met with me, you vanished. You've been gone for so many years; how could the Zhang family not look for you?!" The Grand Elder of the Star Arena shouted angrily as he told Xiao Fan the whole story.

After Xiao Fan left disguised as Zhang Ding, everything was calm at first, and the Star Arena treated the Demon Emperor very well.

After all, everyone knew the Hongtian Star Domain was currently in chaos. If they could establish a connection with the Zhang family through the Demon Emperor, the Star Arena would certainly be willing.

But not long after, people from the Zhang family arrived. They had heard that Zhang Ding was last seen at the Star Arena, and then his whereabouts became unknown.

Although Zhang Ding was a waste of the Zhang family, he was still of the Zhang family's Bloodline, and he certainly couldn't be lost without explanation.

Consequently, the Zhang family demanded an explanation from the Star Arena!

At that time, the upper management of the Star Arena was bewildered, especially the Grand Elder, who had personally spoken with Zhang Ding and even learned some of the Zhang family's secrets.

And then Zhang Ding just vanished…"}],
