Yu Fan looked at Su Xi, who was blocking his path, and said arrogantly, "You will come back with us immediately. We need your assistance with an investigation. If you dare to resist, you will bear the consequences."
After speaking, Yu Fan expected to see Su Xi kneeling and begging for mercy, followed by their harsh humiliation.
However, his smile was about to freeze as he realized Su Xi had no intention of begging. Instead, he saw a smile on her lips.
Su Xi's smile was undisguised, filled with casual mockery, clearly showing she didn't take his words seriously at all.
"What do you mean by that?" Seeing the mockery on Su Xi's face, Yu Fan was completely enraged and wanted to resort to violence immediately.
Everywhere he went, he was usually treated with the utmost respect. Now, he was being looked down upon by a mere disciple. This huge psychological gap was something his proud heart could not accept.
Therefore, for his own sake, he absolutely could not tolerate such a situation.
Su Xi, seeing the undisguised killing intent on Yu Fan's face, felt no nervousness. Instead, she felt a hint of eagerness.
These people wanted to deal with her, but they should at least consider the actual situation. This was within the territory of Penglai Mountain, and Tian Gang Zhenren was by her side. Could Yu Fan and his group truly turn the tables?
Moreover, her actions today, apart from truly looking down on Yu Fan, were more importantly for her upcoming plan. From the looks of it, her plan had succeeded. These people were indeed impatient to make a move.
Seeing Su Xi's lack of cooperation, Yu Fan directly took out a scroll from his hand and said fiercely to Su Xi, "Since you refuse a toast, don't blame me for being impolite."
Su Xi looked at Yu Fan, and her attitude suddenly shifted, becoming a tone of pleading, "Please, don't force me. I really haven't done anything wrong. I won't go with you."
Although Yu Fan didn't know why Su Xi suddenly pleaded, he wasn't going to let her go.
He threw a white light from his hand, and a scroll slowly unfurled above his head, filled with densely packed names.
Upon seeing what was above Yu Fan's head, Su Xi's expression instantly turned into a question mark.

Could it be that Yu Fan was also her fervent fan and was planning to ask for her autograph?
But why such a big commotion?
Su Xi instinctively patted herself, but couldn't find a pen for autographs. She could only shrug helplessly, "I left in a hurry today, so I can't give you an autograph. How about you wait a moment."
Yu Fan didn't understand what Su Xi was saying, but he could tell it wasn't anything good. It was definitely mocking him, and his face grew even more grim. He angrily rebuked, "Bold! Do you not kneel when you see the Confession Scroll? Do you really want me to act?"
Hearing Yu Fan's rather chuunibyou words, Su Xi directly rolled her eyes at him. She suddenly began to suspect if Yu Fan had cultivated too hard and had damaged his brain.
The era of wielding power with impunity had ended countless years ago, and yet someone was still acting as if they held absolute authority?
Who was he trying to scare?
Yu Fan looked at Su Xi, who remained still and wore a mocking expression, and suddenly started to laugh.
The more arrogant Su Xi was now, the more miserable she would be later. At that time, he would see if Su Xi could still be so calm.
The Confession Scroll was a magical artifact refined by the Five Great Immortal Mountains and their Law Enforcement Alliance, specifically used to deal with disciples who had committed wrongdoing in the Five Great Immortal Mountains.
As long as a disciple's name was on it, they must unconditionally accept an investigation.
If anyone dared to disobey or resist, the law enforcement team could act first and report later. Moreover, because the Confession Scroll was refined by the Five Great Immortal Mountains, it had a natural suppressive effect on the disciples of the Five Great Immortal Mountains, reducing their strength to only one-tenth.
Su Xi's disregard for the Confession Scroll now meant she was on the verge of self-destruction, seeking her own demise.
"I'll ask you one more time, are you coming with me?" Yu Fan looked at Su Xi and secretly activated the Confession Scroll.
As long as Su Xi dared to refuse, the Confession Scroll would activate its suppression on her cultivation. Then, when he made his move, it would be as easy as taking something from his pocket.
Su Xi heard the threat in Yu Fan's words and already guessed that he was preparing to act.
She put on a nonchalant expression and said with feigned indignation, "What exactly do you want? We of Penglai Mountain have done nothing wrong, why are you being so aggressive?"
After speaking, she quickly ran towards Penglai Mountain behind her, like a pretty young lady reacting to a creepy old man.
Yu Fan watched Su Xi's retreating back and snorted coldly, ordering those around him, "Su Xi of Penglai Mountain has violated the law. Anyone who sees her is to be killed without mercy."
As Yu Fan's words fell, a white light from the Confession Scroll instantly entered Su Xi's body.
"Ah!" Su Xi let out a scream and was pinned to the ground, unable to move. Tears streamed down her face, her eyes filled with fear.
"Let me go quickly!" Su Xi struggled, but due to the suppression of the Confession Scroll, her efforts were futile.
Yu Fan's subordinates completely ignored Su Xi's pleas and rushed towards her, eager to vent their previous humiliation.
Seven or eight Foundation Establishment cultivators, using their most powerful techniques from the outset, clearly had no intention of leaving Su Xi alive. Their sole aim was to eliminate Su Xi.
Seeing so many people charging towards her, Su Xi's originally mournful face broke into a smile. They were finally making their move.
Although Penglai Mountain was in decline, it did not mean it lacked hidden strength.
She had already activated the mountain protection formation. Now, if these people tried to harm her, they would be blocked by the mountain protection formation, completely seeking their own doom.
Indeed, in the next moment, the enforcement team members who were charging aggressively were instantly frozen in mid-air, unable to move. Simultaneously, they felt a powerful pressure, causing them to cry out in pain.
"What did you do?" Yu Fan looked at Su Xi, completely unprepared for this turn of events.
They clearly had the upper hand, so how could a woman like Su Xi suppress so many of them single-handedly?
Su Xi didn't intend to stop. She lightly uttered a word, "Break." The pressure on those who were frozen in mid-air intensified, and a powerful force surged through them instantly.
"Bang."
One by one, they exploded like overripe watermelons under immense pressure. Minced flesh mixed with blood splattered everywhere, creating a truly shocking scene.
Yu Fan watched as all the subordinates he had brought with him died. His gaze towards Su Xi changed.
He hadn't expected Su Xi to be so powerful, and to actually dare to act, disregarding the existence of their law enforcement team.
"You really dare to act?" Yu Fan was still in shock and couldn't help but ask a foolish question.
Killing so many cultivators of the same realm in such a short time was something he could not achieve and could not even imagine. Su Xi's actions had completely shattered his last shred of pride.
Su Xi looked at the terrified Yu Fan, who was on the verge of wetting himself. She stood up from the ground and asked with feigned innocence, "You said you were going to teach me a lesson. Did you mean you wanted to invite me to watch fireworks?"
"Fireworks show?" Yu Fan almost spat out a mouthful of blood, impressed by Su Xi's imagination.
So many people had been blown to bits, and it was now a fireworks show.
After some time, Yu Fan had calmed down his emotions and said pompously, "Since you've made this choice, don't blame me. You just wait."
After uttering those pompous words, Yu Fan grabbed his belongings and prepared to flee.
From their brief encounter, he realized he couldn't defeat Su Xi, so he planned to go back and find reinforcements to deal with her. Otherwise, if he stayed any longer, he was sure to soil himself.
Su Xi watched as Yu Fan prepared to escape and said coldly, "Stop. Did I say you could leave?"
Hearing Su Xi's words from behind him, Yu Fan's lifted foot halted. He turned to look at Su Xi and asked with a forced, unnatural expression, "What do you want?"
