Chapter 408: Luring the Wolf into the Trap

Soon, after detailed inquiries, the identities of the other few people were clarified; they came from the Wang Family, Feng Family, Lu Family, and the Holy Emperor Palace, respectively.

"Oh, I didn't expect people from the Holy Emperor Palace to come as well," Lan Xian said in surprise.

At that moment, the woman from the Holy Emperor Palace, though captured, remained calm and silent, watching quietly.

However, her gaze remained fixed on Lin Fan, staring at his face with confusion and curiosity, as if she had seen him somewhere before.

"Can we leave now?" one of them asked.

Lin Fan glanced at them, then pointed at the person from the Immortal Academy and said, "He can, as for the rest of you… not yet."

Xuan Wei's eyes lit up, and then he was so moved he almost cried, feeling incredibly fortunate for the first time to be from the same academy as this great Devil Head.

However, the other few were displeased and said indignantly, "You're showing favoritism, protecting people from your own academy!"

"Shut up, dare to say one more word, and beware of your lives!" Lin Fan said coldly, a wave of Killing Intent emanating from him.

Instantly, everyone was terrified, their faces pale, and they all shut their mouths, not daring to speak again.

Then, he pulled the swollen-faced Xuan Wei aside, not only removing his Restriction but also carefully treating his injuries.

After this series of actions, Xuan Wei seemed overwhelmed by favor, unsure of what to do.

"Junior Brother Xuan Wei, is it? I have something here I'd like to ask for your help with," Lin Fan said, his eyes narrowing with a smile, like an old fox.

This Disciple of the Immortal Academy was speechless; he was clearly the Senior Brother, but he dared not refute, as the other party was stronger.

He said fawningly, "Senior Brother, please speak. If there's anything I can help with, just command."

"As long as you go out and explain to everyone like so…" Lin Fan began to explain his plan.

Beside him, Lan Xian's beautiful eyes, upon hearing this, shone with blue light and divine radiance, revealing a dumbfounded expression.

She knew this Junior Brother wasn't so simple; he actually wanted to set a trap to rob the Disciples and descendants of various sects.

It could also be called—a sneak attack!

"Junior Brother, how did I just realize… you're so dark-hearted? You can even come up with such a method, aren't you afraid of being beaten to death?"

Lan Xian stared at him with a strange expression, as if she wanted to see through him, dissect him, and figure out what was inside his head.

"What's inside is naturally Fairy, from the moment I saw you, every expression of yours made it hard for me to forget…" Lin Fan said with genuine emotion.

"Pfft… less mushy stuff!" Lan Xian smiled sweetly, rolling her beautiful eyes, not believing a single word he said.

Because she had come to understand that this convenient Junior Brother was a hypocritical fellow full of wicked schemes.

"I'm just asking if you're in or not!" Lin Fan said seriously.

Lan Xian hesitated for a moment; although this would harm her reputation as a banished Fairy, there was a strange sense of excitement.

Finally, she agreed.

"Um… can I refuse?" Xuan Wei asked softly, truly not wanting to be involved.

Because if he were discovered, he would definitely be beaten to death.

"What do you think?" Lin Fan's face changed like turning a page, and he gave him a cold, eerie glance.

Immediately, the latter trembled, filled with bitterness and helplessness.

Of course, Lin Fan was not a black-hearted boss who only knew how to exploit; he promised to give him a share of the benefits.

"Life and death are fated, wealth is in the heavens, let's do it!" Xuan Wei said, gritting his teeth.

Thus, a black-hearted scheme was officially established.

"However, before that, the Divine Rank medicines in the ancient land should be collected first," Lin Fan said, his heart stirred.

So far, three types of Divine Rank medicines had been discovered, and he truly didn't know how many more great Opportunities this place held.

Besides, there were many Spiritual Plants, and Holy Medicines were not few in number, which truly made people envious and was enough to shock the world.

"A Divine Rank old ginseng!"

Soon after, Lin Fan discovered another Divine Rank medicine; it was very agile, and at the slightest disturbance, it would whoosh and burrow into the ground to escape.

"Collect!"

However, this area was, after all, sealed with many spell formations; although the Divine Rank medicine's escape technique was top-notch, it could not leave this area.

Lin Fan raised his hand, forcibly pulling it out of the soil, grabbing a plant that was almost as tall as a person, resembling a small-headed old man.

In fact, it was a ginseng, golden in appearance, like a small sun, illuminating the Void Realm.

"That's enough, otherwise the people outside will get anxious and can't help but send more people in."

Lin Fan whispered; along the way, he also dug up several semi-Divine Rank medicines, to the point where he no longer cared much for Holy Medicines.

Xuan Wei nodded, very anxious but also joyful, having just collected many precious medicines, enough to make his trip worthwhile.

Unlike the other four, who were now knocked out, some memories erased, and hung on a cliff as bait!

Compared to them, he was much luckier.

…

Outside, everyone was anxiously waiting, including some Elders and important figures, all in anticipation.

"Several hours have passed, why hasn't anyone come out yet? Could something have happened?" someone wondered.

However, after glancing at the lit soul lamps of the few people, they quieted down again.

"It's a pity we can't go in, otherwise it wouldn't be the juniors' turn to explore," some Elders complained, very unwilling but helpless.

But not everyone was like this; for some, this Restriction actually presented more Opportunities.

After all, there were too many old monsters present, and it was not certain they could win against them.

Besides, they dared not use Immortal Artifacts to force their way in, fearing that if the Small World exploded, everything would be destroyed.

"Swish!"

Just then, someone came out; it was Xuan Wei, and according to Lin Fan's instructions, he was now acting incredibly excited and shocked.

"Elder, there are many rare precious medicines inside, and even more than one Divine Rank medicine!"

"What?!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar among the crowd; this news was very sensational.

At the same time, people also noticed that he had wounds and bloodstains on his body, looking very disheveled, as if he had encountered danger.

Of course, these were all intentional, the purpose being to create authenticity and rationality.

"What happened to you? What kind of world is inside? Why is only one person back, and what about the others?" an old monster asked.

"There are many heavenly spiritual essences inside, but also dangers. We went to collect Divine Rank medicines, but were injured by runes. The other few people are trapped, and only I escaped to report."

Xuan Wei answered fluently, making it impossible for anyone to see any falsehood.

"Who is willing to go explore and find out, to contend for the Dao Opportunity?"

A renowned figure shouted loudly, and everyone began to act, sending young experts from each family to enter and contend for the great fortune.

Soon, figures flickered, and one by one, they rubbed their fists, very excited, eager to step into the Immortal Mansion.

They were all very confident; the fact that the previous people were trapped did not mean they would also be.

One must know that the previous few people were among the weaker ones; the true young experts had not yet been dispatched.

However, some Elders also gave solemn warnings not to be careless, and bestowed supreme treasures to ensure their safety.

"You must be careful!"
