Chapter 2569: Harmony Brings Wealth

Hearing this, everyone in the Divine Hall came to a realization, seeing the intentions of Qian Daoling, Huo Jian, Han Fu, and the others.

After all that, it turned out they were here to ask for saint-grade artifacts…

Had they not just witnessed Xiao Fan giving saint-grade artifacts to Hou Yangbiao and Yang Yun, they wouldn't have come forward so rashly.

But since Xiao Fan had already given them to Hou Yangbiao and Yang Yun… could he really be lacking for the other Tatian Realm experts?

In the eyes of everyone in the Divine Hall, he probably wouldn't be.

After all, it was common knowledge that Xiao Fan had many saint-grade artifacts in his possession…

Hou Yangbiao was stunned; after all this time, it turned out these fellows were envious and also wanted to ask Xiao Fan for a saint-grade artifact.

But the question was, would a guy like Xiao Fan be so easy to talk to?

Others might not know, but Hou Yangbiao did; if Xiao Fan was in a good mood, anything was possible, but if he was in a bad mood, there was absolutely no room for negotiation.

Huo Jian, Han Fu, and Qian Daoling had never dealt with Xiao Fan before, so they didn't understand his personality.

"Indeed, Young Friend Xiao, you have so many saint-grade artifacts in your hands; it wouldn't be too much to give each of us one, would it?" Huo Jian also spoke up with a smile.

"Young Friend Xiao, this old man has long wanted to obtain a saint-grade artifact… I hope you can fulfill this wish. I, Han Fu, am willing to consider you a friend," Han Fu said cheerfully.

Although the attitudes of Huo Jian, Qian Daoling, and Han Fu seemed decent, everyone in the Divine Hall could hear the underlying aggressiveness in their words.

They all looked toward Xiao Fan, wanting to see how he would handle it.

One must realize that these were all Tatian Realm experts—figures who could make the Hongtian Star Domain tremble just by stomping their feet.

If this wasn't handled well, then Jiuzhou would likely be in trouble too.

"Hehehe… coming here to beg for food, are we?" Xiao Fan looked at them with cold eyes and sneered. "What? Do you take me for some wealthy landlord? Do you think I just throw saint-grade artifacts around?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the Divine Hall was stunned… each one revealing an expression of disbelief.

The expressions of Qian Daoling, Han Fu, and Huo Jian were quite a sight; they were all dumbfounded…

As Tatian Realm experts, they had forgotten how many hundreds of thousands of years it had been since anyone dared to speak to them like that.

And yet, this Xiao Fan… he actually dared to be so disrespectful!

"You… Xiao Fan, what do you mean?!" Han Fu's face instantly turned cold and gloomy, feeling slighted by Xiao Fan.

"Xiao Fan, do you take us for beggars?" Huo Jian said coldly, his expression looking very ugly.

"Xiao Fan, we spoke to you politely. If you were unwilling, the matter could have been dropped… but you actually dared to insult us!" Qian Daoling said coldly.

In the Divine Hall, most people's thoughts were actually similar to what Qian Daoling had said.

When three Tatian Realm experts come to ask for saint-grade artifacts, if Xiao Fan was unwilling, he could have just refused directly.

Why be so blunt?

Not leaving them even a shred of face?

Wasn't this forcing them to turn hostile?

In the Divine Hall, everyone felt that Xiao Fan was arrogant, becoming too supercilious now that he had strength.

Dealing with a single Tatian Realm expert would be one thing, but dealing with three at once!

In the Divine Hall, everyone retreated in unison, worried that they would be caught in the crossfire if a great battle broke out.

The more Hou Yangbiao watched, the more interesting he found it; he felt absolutely invigorated…

Hou Yangbiao knew best what Xiao Fan's strength was. In fact, Huo Jian, Qian Daoling, and Han Fu knew it too, as they had all watched from afar when Hou Yangbiao and Xiao Fan fought earlier.

It was just that now, the situation had become difficult to resolve.

"Hehehe… what?" Xiao Fan sneered, looking at them. "You entered my Jiuzhou without permission and immediately opened your mouths to demand saint-grade artifacts. If this behavior isn't begging, then what is it?"

"You… Xiao Fan, do you think you're invincible? How arrogant!" Hearing this, Han Fu was furious. His Tatian Realm aura spread out, causing the hearts of the experts in the Divine Hall to leap with fear.

Ye Miaoyin, Zhangsun Ning, the Demon Emperor, Nangong Lingxuan, and the other women all retreated to a safe place, as Xiao Fan had previously instructed.

If a conflict broke out, they were to protect themselves so that Xiao Fan wouldn't be distracted.

Xiao Li's expression was cold and his anger flared; he only hated his own uselessness in being unable to stand up for his father!

Xiao Qing was the same, so angry she was itching for a fight. Wang Teng stood beside her, not daring to make a sound for fear of being beaten by Xiao Qing as a way to vent her anger.

"Xiao Fan, you must give us an explanation for this, otherwise…" Qian Daoling said coldly.

But he was interrupted halfway by Xiao Fan's icy words: "Hehehe… otherwise what? You'll kill me?"

"You… how insolent!" Qian Daoling was livid, feeling that Xiao Fan was supercilious and far too arrogant.

"Xiao Fan, there is always a higher mountain; you should understand this principle," Huo Jian said coldly.

"Hahaha… I don't understand. Why don't you teach me?" Xiao Fan laughed wildly.

"Forget it, forget it… everyone, harmony brings wealth. Why all the arguing?"

At this moment, Yang Yun's figure appeared within the Divine Hall. He stepped forward with a look of embarrassment on his face.

Because Xiao Fan had given him a saint-grade artifact, and it had resulted in this mess, Yang Yun felt quite awkward.

Seeing Yang Yun appear, many experts in the hall gasped… counting Hou Yangbiao, that made five Tatian Realm experts.
