“What is the current situation?” Xiao Fan asked. His voice was calm, but a killing intent leaked out unconsciously!

"The matter has been in a stalemate, but looking at the Diao Family's stance, they will not let Junior Sister Nangong go," Hu Rui said. "Sect Master Wu and Sect Master Xu stepped in to mediate for this matter, but it was useless… After all, the current Jixian Sect is not what it used to be."

The Diao Family was very lucky; the area occupied by the demon cultivators did not include the Diao Family, so their forces were preserved.

Now that a great war is imminent, the imperial family does not want the Human Race to descend into civil strife.

Since the Diao Family now has an Old Ancestor at the Pi Hai Realm, along with several powerhouses at the Yuanhun Realm and dozens at the Xuandan Realm, they are very helpful for the war.

Therefore, the imperial family tacitly approves of this matter. As for the Jixian Sect, the Ancestor of Jixian Sect cannot be bothered to ask about it, and Sect Master Wu Xinjue and Sect Master Xu Yongnian cannot oppose the imperial family!

"Qiao Rong spoke up for Junior Sister Nangong a few times, but the imperial family rejected it all…" Hu Rui added.

Qiao Rong is the granddaughter of Elder Qiao, belongs to the Treasure Pavilion, and is affiliated with the imperial family.

But in front of the imperial family, her words carry little weight, so it was completely useless.

"What is the situation now?"

"Junior Sister Nangong is still dragging it out… But there are only three days left until the originally agreed wedding date… The Diao Family has declared that once the three days are up, Diao Zhen will come to marry Junior Sister Nangong!" Hu Rui said, her face turning pale.

"Diao Family… It seems you all want to die." At this moment, Xiao Fan was filled with a murderous aura.

"Xiao Fan, don't do anything rash… Now that you are back, you can go find the Old Ancestor and have him step in. Perhaps there is still room to salvage this situation!" Hu Rui said hurriedly.

Xiao Fan is currently only at the eighth level of the Xuandan Realm; he is indeed very strong, but the Diao Family's Old Ancestor has the strength of the Pi Hai Realm!

Furthermore, the Diao Family still has many powerhouses; she was concerned for Xiao Fan's safety.

Warrior Feng, who was standing to the side, had also intended to speak up and persuade him, but when he saw Wei Zhongshan's gloating expression, he remained silent…

Xiao Fan can now take in a Pi Hai Realm subordinate… How strong must this little guy be now?

From Xiao Fan, Warrior Feng felt an intense danger, even stronger than the danger brought by Wei Zhongshan, a Pi Hai Realm cultivator!

This was a warning of crisis, but the gap between Hu Rui and Xiao Fan was too great, so she could not sense it.

"Rest assured, I won't do anything rash. Three days, right… I will give the Diao Family a surprise when the time comes." Xiao Fan smiled, but the smile was very cold.

Hu Rui didn't know what else to say, but she felt that Xiao Fan would be fine.

After all, Xiao Fan is a Disciple of the Jixian Sect and a Prodigy; now that he has returned, the Jixian Sect would surely be willing to step in for him.

Warrior Feng ordered someone to arrange two guest rooms for Xiao Fan and Wei Zhongshan to rest…

"Hu Rui, take this." Xiao Fan threw a Storage Pouch to Hu Rui.

"This, what is this?" Hu Rui was stunned. When she peered inside, she saw two Earth Rank Magical Artifacts, a pile of bottles and jars of Medicinal Pills, and a pile of Heaven And Earth Treasures.

"This, this…" Hu Rui was greatly astonished, her expression one of shock!

These things were nothing in Yihuang Province, but in Wuhuang Province, they were extremely rare!

"Take it, don't be polite." Xiao Fan smiled, then threw another Storage Pouch to Warrior Feng, which contained a large amount of Heaven And Earth Treasures that could increase spiritual power.

"This, this!!" Warrior Feng was so excited that he took a step back involuntarily. Most of the Heaven And Earth Treasures inside were extinct in Wuhuang Province.

Warrior Feng had been stuck at the Yuanhun Realm for many years and had been slow to achieve a Breakthrough simply because he lacked an Opportunity.

Now, Xiao Fan had given him this Opportunity, entirely as a token of gratitude for Warrior Feng helping him back then.

"Thank you." Warrior Feng bowed solemnly. With the Heaven And Earth Treasures given by Xiao Fan, he was confident he could reach a Breakthrough to the Pi Hai Realm!

"No need to be polite. Compared to how you helped me back then, this is nothing." Xiao Fan smiled.

"Xiao Fan… this…" Hu Rui did not know the value of the Heaven And Earth Treasures inside her Storage Pouch, nor did she know what the bottles and jars contained, but she did recognize the two Earth Rank Magical Artifacts.

"Just keep it. Why be polite with me?" Xiao Fan smiled.

Hu Rui thought about it; indeed, she and Xiao Fan were so close, why be polite?

"Then I will accept it. Thank you." Hu Rui smiled.

"Alright, I will rest now. I plan to go to the Imperial City tomorrow."

Xiao Fan and Wei Zhongshan left…

Watching their retreating figures, Hu Rui no longer felt worried; she felt that Xiao Fan was not a reckless person.

But Warrior Feng did not think so. He was now breaking into a cold sweat for the Diao Family, and he even wanted to go and watch the show!

"Hu Rui, do not send word of this to anyone. Let us act as if we don't know Xiao Fan has returned." Warrior Feng instructed.

"This…" Hu Rui didn't understand what Warrior Feng meant, but she still nodded in agreement.

Warrior Feng wanted to see how miserable the Diao Family would end up!

"Diao Family… I will go tomorrow. You had better not go too far, otherwise, just wait for death." Xiao Fan muttered to himself in the room!

As he was now, there were fewer than ten people in Wuhuang Province who could defeat him!

But among those ten, the Diao Family's Old Ancestor was definitely not one of them.
