Chapter 6761: It Makes Sense

If looks could kill, Xiao Fan would have been shredded to pieces by them.

"Hahahaha… Reporting to Seventh Ancestor! This matter was a conspiracy between me and Brother Jiang!" Xiao Fan laughed loudly.

"Hm? A conspiracy with Jiang Yubai?!" Seventh Ancestor was stunned for a moment.

Yang Xinghuo, Mu Yarui, and the others were also taken aback.

"Yes! That's right! A conspiracy between me and Jiang Yubai!" Xiao Fan nodded heavily.

Seventh Ancestor was surprised and immediately called for Jiang Yubai.

Jiang Yubai's heart skipped a beat.

He immediately understood Xiao Fan's intentions.

"Hahaha… Brother Jiang! We cooperated perfectly!" Xiao Fan said with a smile, cupping his hands towards Jiang Yubai.

"It's… it's alright." Jiang Yubai forced a smile, his face ashen.

"What exactly is going on? Xiao Fan, speak!" Seventh Ancestor said angrily.

"Reporting to Seventh Ancestor! It's like this! They were determined to win me over! I didn't agree! They even threatened me! I was scared! So I found Brother Jiang! Brother Jiang made a quick decision! He immediately thought of a good idea!" Xiao Fan said with a smile.

"Oh? What good idea?!" Seventh Ancestor was stunned.

"Hahaha… Let me accept the greeting gifts openly! Then refuse them! Force them to retreat in the face of difficulties!" Xiao Fan said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the faces of Yang Xinghuo, Mu Yarui, and the others turned so dark that ink could drip from them.

"Jiang Yubai! Is this true?!"

"You… was this your conspiracy?!"

"Just to cheat us out of our resources?!"

"…"

"Nonsense! What do you mean by cheat?!" Xiao Fan's expression darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "That was you paying respects to me!!"

Hearing this, Yang Xinghuo let out a roar: "Xiao Fan! I want to kill you!"

After speaking, Yang Xinghuo punched out.

Xiao Fan was startled and immediately retreated.

However, Yang Xinghuo's strength was too great; if he didn't use his full power, he wouldn't be able to block it.

Fortunately, Seventh Ancestor intervened.

"Presumptuous!!"

With a "boom," Seventh Ancestor waved his hand, and his Divine Ability evolved.

In the next moment, he easily neutralized Yang Xinghuo's attack.

"Yang Xinghuo! What are you trying to do?!" Seventh Ancestor reprimanded.

"I… I was too angry, so I couldn't control myself. Seventh Ancestor, please forgive me."

Yang Xinghuo gritted his teeth and bowed to Seventh Ancestor.

"Don't let it happen again." Seventh Ancestor snorted coldly, feeling troubled in his heart.

What should be done about this matter now?!

"Seventh Ancestor! You must uphold justice for us in this matter!" Mu Yarui said in a deep voice.

"That's right! Xiao Fan is despicable and shameless! He deliberately tricked us!" Luo Geyun cupped her hands towards Seventh Ancestor.

"Seventh Ancestor! I don't demand much! Just let Xiao Fan return the greeting gift I gave him."

"Seventh Ancestor! I want my resources!"

"…"

A group of experts who had been tricked by Xiao Fan spoke up one after another.

"Hahaha… What resources? I already said, greeting gifts are not returned." Xiao Fan spread his hands.

Upon hearing this, Luo Geyun, Mu Yarui, and the others were furious and began to curse.

"Xiao Fan! You are despicable and shameless!"

"Xiao Fan! You… you… what did you say?!"

"You tricked us out of our greeting gifts! And you don't want to return them?!"

"Xiao Fan! Bah! You are too insidious!"

"…"

"What do you mean by insidious? Greeting gifts! Gifts! A gift is a gift! Once accepted, it's mine! Don't regret it after giving it." Xiao Fan spread his hands, looking indifferent.

Seventh Ancestor had a headache. After hesitating for a moment, he asked Xiao Fan to return them.

Xiao Fan stated directly that he couldn't return them; they were already gone.

"Seventh Ancestor! There weren't many greeting gifts in total! I kept half for myself, and the rest I gave to Brother Jiang." Xiao Fan pointed at Jiang Yubai.

Jiang Yubai's face darkened, and he let out a sigh.

He hadn't received many benefits, but in the end, he was the one taking the blame.

"Is that true?!" Seventh Ancestor looked at Jiang Yubai with a cold face.

"Yes, it is." Jiang Yubai nodded.

"Jiang Yubai! You are too bad!"

"Jiang Yubai! Return my resources!"

"I didn't expect this! Jiang Yubai! You were actually the mastermind!!"

"…"

Luo Geyun, Mu Yarui, and others spoke up one after another, angrily rebuking Jiang Yubai.

"I didn't! I really didn't!" Jiang Yubai said angrily.

"Then tell us! Did you take the greeting gifts that Xiao Fan accepted from us?!"

"I… I took a little bit." Jiang Yubai sighed.

"Xiao Fan! Where are the resources you accepted?!" Seventh Ancestor asked in a deep voice.

"Used them all up, they're gone." Xiao Fan spread his hands nonchalantly.

Seventh Ancestor sighed and looked at Jiang Yubai: "What about yours?!"

"I… I used mine up too." Jiang Yubai shook his head helplessly.

Seventh Ancestor felt helpless; this matter was a hot potato.

Normally, it would be fine if the greeting gifts were returned.

But now, it was impossible for Seventh Ancestor to let Xiao Fan and Jiang Yubai suffer this loss in silence.

After hesitating, Seventh Ancestor decided to support Xiao Fan.

"Seventh Ancestor! You must make the decision for us!"

"Seventh Ancestor! I just want my resources! I don't want anything else!"

"Me too! Seventh Ancestor!"

"…"

"Hahaha… Want resources? What resources do you want?" Seventh Ancestor shook his head and said faintly: "Xiao Fan is right! A greeting gift is a gift! A gift that has been sent out! How can you ask for it back?!"

Upon hearing this, the faces of Luo Geyun, Mu Yarui, Yang Xinghuo, and others changed.

"Seventh Ancestor! You… what do you mean?!" Yang Xinghuo asked in surprise.

"Since it is a greeting gift! It makes sense that Xiao Fan doesn't return it to you."
