Chapter 3421: His Lackey

Now, with his identity in the Nine Cauldrons Association, it would be an easy task for Xiao Fan to go to the Huai Family Main City…

Xiao Fan immediately cupped his fists in thanks. The expert from the Nine Cauldrons Association told Xiao Fan that any future missions or news would be notified through the Nine Cauldrons Association Token…

The Token issued by the Nine Cauldrons Association was itself a rare Magical Artifact.

It recorded various missions issued by the Nine Cauldrons Association. All Disciples of the Nine Cauldrons Association could accept missions, complete them, and then exchange them for corresponding rewards.

Furthermore, the Nine Cauldrons Association would hold various activities periodically…

For example, a member of the Nine Cauldrons Association recently discovered a Secret Realm. He dedicated the Secret Realm to the Nine Cauldrons Association, which rewarded him and then invited other members to enter for free…

Xiao Fan was dumbfounded upon hearing the explanation about the Nine Cauldrons Association…

Xiao Fan had originally thought that the Nine Cauldrons Association wasn't a very good power, but it turned out he was wrong—entirely wrong…

Xiao Fan finally understood why so many people joined the Nine Cauldrons Association.

Because the Nine Cauldrons Association was more like a large chamber of commerce. Joining meant becoming a member, and one could even sell information inside to exchange for divine star stones.

Transactions completed using the Nine Cauldrons Association Token would be personally supervised by their experts. The divine star stones obtained could be collected at the nearest Nine Cauldrons Association outpost… The association only charged a certain commission each time.

Seeing all these tempting conditions, Xiao Fan suddenly felt that Shijue Academy wasn't as appealing anymore…

Of course, Xiao Fan also suddenly realized another thing: he could be a member of both Shijue Academy and the Nine Cauldrons Association simultaneously; there didn't seem to be any conflict.

In any case, Shijue Academy had no rule stating that its members couldn't join the Nine Cauldrons Association, and the Nine Cauldrons Association had no rule against joining if one was already in Shijue Academy…

Xiao Fan felt his idea was correct—no, it was a brilliant idea!

With the dual identities of Shijue Academy and the Nine Cauldrons Association, it would be much more convenient for Xiao Fan to conduct business in the Divine Domain…

After learning all this, Xiao Fan cupped his fists and left, heading straight for the Huai Family Main City.

…

Main city.

Several experts of the Huai Family saw Xiao Fan and immediately walked over with unfriendly expressions.

"Kid, didn't I tell you before that unauthorized people are… Nine Cauldrons Association? Very well… this way, please."

Upon seeing Xiao Fan reveal the Nine Cauldrons Association Token, the gatekeeper's expression changed instantly, and his attitude toward Xiao Fan became polite.

"Thank you." Xiao Fan cupped his fists and entered the main city happily.

He never expected the Nine Cauldrons Association to have such Face.

Furthermore, Xiao Fan learned from the Nine Cauldrons Association Token that besides the Huai Family, there were many other powers on good terms with the association where one could enjoy conveniences using the Token.

At this moment, Xiao Fan realized why so many people joined the Nine Cauldrons Association—it was simply too convenient…

Xiao Fan now had a clear understanding of why the Nine Cauldrons Association could stand firm in the Middle Realm of the Divine Domain…

In the Huai Family Main City, upon arrival, Xiao Fan immediately sensed the aura of the Heavenly King Realm.

The expert stationed here at all times was a Heavenly King Realm expert, though only at the Early Stage of the Heavenly King Realm…

Xiao Fan pretended nothing was wrong and strolled around the Huai Family Main City.

It was just like any other city, except there were more Heaven And Earth Treasures for sale, and the prices were lower…

Those who could enter the main city were considered their own people by the Huai Family, so the prices were correspondingly lower.

Xiao Fan wasn't reserved and bought many things that were useful to him…

After finishing this, Xiao Fan began to inquire about news regarding Huai Yushu's family.

Those of the Huai Family Bloodline all lived in the main city. Huai Yushu's father was named Huai Hongkai, who was very prestigious in the main city…

Xiao Fan easily found out the location of Huai Hongkai's residence.

Xiao Fan arrived directly outside Huai Hongkai's residence. Looking at the grand mansion, he fell into deep thought.

How should he get in?

Use his identity from Shijue Academy?

Use his identity from the Nine Cauldrons Association?

Or say he was a friend of Huai Yushu?

For a moment, Xiao Fan hesitated. He didn't know the Huai Family's affairs, and a single mistake could easily backfire.

So, Xiao Fan sent another message to Huai Yushu, but there was still no response…

"Let's give it a try…" Xiao Fan murmured, deciding to knock on the door as Huai Yushu's friend.

Knock, knock, knock…

Xiao Fan knocked on the gate of Huai Hongkai's residence.

After a short while, an old man opened the courtyard gate.

"Who are you?"

"I am Xiao Fan, I am Huai Yushu's… lackey."
