After dinner, Lu Fan was preparing to cultivate when several elders from the Dragon Kingdom arrived in the courtyard with gifts. "Miss Lin is out of danger, and you, boy, haven't gone to spread the good news!"
"I just returned to Dragon Capital!"
Lu Fan said with a wry smile, "Why have you elders come? Has the Cang Qiong Kingdom made another move?"
"Not at all!"
The Seventh Elder waved his hand. "So far, the Cang Qiong Kingdom has been completely silent, which is what worries us the most!"
"Why is that?" Lu Fan asked in surprise. "Isn't the silence of the Cang Qiong Kingdom the best news for the Dragon Kingdom?"
"The Cang Qiong Kingdom has an extremely powerful foundation and would never suffer a loss easily. To endure such humiliation, they must be planning something bigger!"
The Third Elder said, "However, now that Miss Lin is fine, we are relieved!"
"It's too much for you elders to come to visit me when you're so busy," Lu Fan quickly brewed tea.
Although the elders of the Dragon Kingdom were all weaker than him, Lu Fan admired them. Without them, the Dragon Kingdom would have likely fallen long ago. It was admirable that they, in their old age, still stood firm at the forefront of the nation.
"I have sent people to closely monitor the surroundings of Dragon Capital. If there are any suspicious individuals, they will surely be discovered," the First Elder stated. "That person from last time was incredibly powerful. You must be extra careful!"
"Rest assured, First Elder. My strength has also improved considerably. If I encounter him again, it won't be like last time!"
Lu Fan's eyes flashed with cold light, and his expression was even more indifferent. Last time, Tutor Hua had almost cost Lin Ke her life. If he dared to come again, Lu Fan would not let him off easily.
"Since Miss Lin is unharmed, we shall not disturb you further!"
The elders smiled and left Jiang Jing Long Ting. They were busy with official duties and had many things to attend to, so they naturally wouldn't linger here.
"Tutor Hua will not give up so easily. You must be very careful!" Long Yi said, "After all, she is a quasi-emperor!"
"If I can obtain the Tai Xu Sword, will I be able to deal with her?"
Lu Fan suddenly said, his eyes gleaming.
"But that senior already said that the Tai Xu Sword needs to be sensed by oneself," Long Yi chuckled. "This matter is probably not that simple."
"In fact, I had a sense of it a long time ago, but I didn't realize it. The Starfall Stone's senses were all directed towards the Tai Xu Sword!" Lu Fan said with a wry smile.
"You mean you can sense the Tai Xu Sword?"
Long Yi was slightly surprised. "If that's the case, after obtaining the Tai Xu Sword, you will indeed be able to increase your strength!"
"If that's the case, then we'll set off tomorrow!"
Lu Fan's gaze was solemn. Both the Cang Qiong Kingdom and the Cang Long Academy made Lu Fan feel immense pressure. If his strength couldn't be improved again, his life would be in constant danger, and he wouldn't even be able to protect those closest to him.
"Then do you know where this Tai Xu Sword is?" Long Yi frowned slightly.
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be in the Jiangbei region!"
Lu Fan's expression was solemn. "If we go there, we will surely gain something!"
Long Yi said nothing more, agreeing to Ye Tian's wishes. The three of them were now on the same boat. No matter what they did, they would rely on each other. Only in this way could they calmly deal with Tutor Hua's attacks.
The next day, Lu Fan and the others left Dragon Capital and headed towards Jiangbei. Jiang Meili also followed along. After all, she was now a Grandmaster and was about to reach the Battle Spirit realm, so she naturally wanted to follow Lu Fan and the others.
Upon arriving in Jiangbei, Lu Fan and the others settled down. Besides them, Gu Wen and over a dozen experts from the Qing Yun Sect also arrived in Jiangbei, presenting quite an imposing presence.
"Master, I've inquired. There are no sharp weapons in Jiangbei."
Gu Wen cupped his fists and said, "Master, do you know what the sword you're looking for looks like?"
"I don't know the specifics, but I feel it's in Jiangbei!" Lu Fan frowned. "Go and collect information. Bring me any divine weapons or sharp weapons you find to see!"
Gu Wen nodded slightly. He dared not neglect anything Lu Fan instructed.
"I didn't expect Jiangbei to be so prosperous!" Su Dan Novel Network
Standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, Jiang Meili said, "This is my first time in Jiangbei. Xiao Ke, you must accompany me to explore!"
"I knew you'd say that!"
Lin Ke smiled. "I've already inquired. Tonight, there's a costume party in the suburbs of Jiangbei City."
"Do I need to wear ancient costumes?"
Jiang Meili was a little excited. "I love ancient costumes the most!"
"But I don't know if Xiao Fan will go!" Lin Ke said helplessly. "We came to Jiangbei mainly to find the Tai Xu Sword. If we can find it, Xiao Fan won't be so troubled."
"It's not urgent anyway. He should go!" Jiang Meili chuckled.
"To find the Tai Xu Sword, I have to travel around. Of course, I must go!"
Lu Fan smiled. "The Tai Xu Sword is in Jiangbei. As for where in Jiangbei, I'm not too sure, but we can't just wait around!"
"That's great!"
Lin Ke was instantly overjoyed. She was afraid of delaying Lu Fan, but with Lu Fan's explanation, it seemed reasonable.
By 10 PM, the suburbs of Jiangbei were brightly lit. Many people in ancient costumes walked in the night. Some held long swords, while others were dressed strangely. Some even rode warhorses and wore armor, looking quite dashing.
"This is the Ancient Costume Street!"
Lin Ke said, "Every night in Jiangbei, ancient costume characters appear here, and it's quite lively!"
"I really didn't expect Jiangbei to have such a good place!" Jiang Meili exclaimed repeatedly.
Lu Fan looked at the people in the Ancient Costume Street and noticed that there were quite a few martial artists within the street. Moreover, these martial artists were exceptionally powerful, with even Battle King powerhouses among them.
"What's going on?"
Long Yi frowned. "How can Battle Kings appear in such a small Jiangbei?"
"It seems these people are not ordinary. They are just using the Ancient Costume Street to conceal themselves, or they always dress in ancient costumes!"
Lu Fan said, "If I'm not mistaken, these people are from ancient sects!"
"People from ancient sects?"
Long Yi frowned. "But according to the rules of ancient sects, disciples cannot easily enter the mortal world, or they will be condemned!"
"No one knows, so they won't be caught!"
Lu Fan said, "As people from ancient sects, they are already powerful. Ordinary people would have no way to catch them."
"This Ancient Costume Street is quite secretive," Long Yi nodded slightly. "I wonder if the Tai Xu Sword is here."
"It shouldn't be," Lu Fan shook his head. "I haven't sensed any aura."
Long Yi was instantly disappointed. He really hoped that Lu Fan could find the Tai Xu Sword as soon as possible so that he could protect himself.
