"Based on the aura, they are within the Fire Domain!"
A white-haired elder spoke, "Why do we stop here? According to the Pavilion Master's orders, shouldn't we pursue them?"
"No need to rush. They want to use the Fire Domain to conceal their presence and heal. Let them have that opportunity!"
Shangguan Qingtian sneered, "The people from the Eighth Prince's Mansion will arrive soon. By then, they will have no escape!"
The elders present also smiled instantly. If the Eighth Prince's Mansion arrived, Lu Fan and the others would surely be trapped.
After some time, Bai Hu arrived in the forest, surrounded by everyone.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
Shangguan Qingtian clasped his fists, his eyes filled with flattery, not daring to show any disrespect.
"Where are they!"
Bai Hu's expression was icy. He had exerted considerable effort to kill Lu Fan. Now that he knew Lu Fan's hiding place, how could he let this opportunity slip by?
"They are within the Fire Domain!"
Shangguan Qingtian quickly replied, "However, their strength is formidable. To capture them all in one net, we will likely need many experts!"
"What about the seven Venerables?"
Bai Hu narrowed his eyes. This time, he was accompanied by Elder Tian, Elder Di, and Elder Yun, along with the Four Divine Guards. Such a retinue could traverse the White Dragon Dynasty with impunity.
Shangguan Qingtian was overjoyed and dared not speak further. With Bai Hu's words, Lu Fan and the others would likely be unable to escape.
At the same time, within the Fire Domain, after some breathing exercises, Lu Fan's injuries gradually recovered.
The flames of the Fire Domain seemed to be the best healing medicine for Lu Fan.
"My Lord, judging by your complexion, you seem much better!"
Duan Tianya said with a smile, "Even your aura has advanced!"
"That's right. If you were to fight the Divine Wind Pavilion Master again, he would surely be defeated!"
Lu Fan nodded confidently. Now that his strength had advanced further, coupled with the might of the Sacred Fire, he could likely contend with a second-grade Spirit Venerable. He had never doubted this.
The other elders also gradually recovered, but at this moment, Lu Fan's body trembled, and he looked towards the distant horizon.
"My Lord, what is it?"
Duan Tianya asked with a furrowed brow.
"Not good, powerful individuals are approaching the Fire Domain. They are likely from the Eighth Prince's Mansion!"
Lu Fan said repeatedly, "Elders, follow me and leave the Fire Domain!"
Lu Fan came here precisely to use the power of the Fire Domain against the Divine Wind Pavilion. However, if the Eighth Prince's Mansion intervened, it was beyond their control.
"Trying to leave? It's probably too late now!"
A booming laugh echoed, and Bai Hu appeared, followed by a host of powerful figures from the Eighth Prince's Mansion.
Shangguan Qingtian stood to the side, his expression even more sinister.
"You have no escape today!"
"The Divine Wind Pavilion has quite the methods. Unable to handle it themselves, they invite the Eighth Prince's Mansion to act!"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, "You have truly broadened my horizons!"
"Hmph, facing death, yet you still dare to be defiant!" Shangguan Qingtian said coldly. Now, he didn't even need to act; Lu Fan was destined to die today. Su Dan Novel Network
"You are Lu Fan?"
Qing Long looked at Lu Fan, "Did you kill Bai Xi, the Young Master?"
"Of course not!"
Lu Fan chuckled, "As I said before, Bai Xi was harmed by Bai Hu, and furthermore, he is not dead!"
Qing Long's body trembled, "Is this true?"
"Listen to his nonsensical ramblings!"
Bai Hu said coldly, "How could I harm my own brother! Qing Long, where are you? Take him down immediately!"
"Young Master Bai Hu, this matter must be clarified!"
Qing Long stated directly, "Did you truly lay hands on Young Master Bai Xi?"
"How dare you!"
Bai Hu's expression was indifferent as he stared directly at Qing Long, exuding supreme pressure. As the Young Master of the Eighth Prince's Mansion, how could he possibly regard Qing Long with respect?
"Big Brother, Bai Xi is Young Master Bai Hu's own brother, how could that be!" Zhu Que quickly stepped forward.
They were merely Divine Guards. Offending Bai Hu would be a loss. Whether it was Bai Hu's doing or not was of no importance to them.
"I am under the Prince's orders to thoroughly investigate this matter!"
Qing Long said calmly, "I hope Young Master Bai Hu cooperates. Moreover, I intend to take this person back to the Mansion today!"
"He killed my brother, how can I let him live!"
Bai Hu's expression was cold as he glanced towards Elder Tian.
Elder Tian, receiving the signal, moved abruptly and rushed towards Lu Fan. According to Bai Hu's wishes, Lu Fan was to die today.
Sensing the sharp gust of wind, Lu Fan remained fearless. Although Elder Tian was a second-grade Spirit Venerable, this was the Fire Domain.
Lu Fan possessed a natural advantage. Even when facing a second-grade Spirit Venerable, he was still confident of victory.
"Young Master, the matter has not been clarified yet. Is this not a bit inappropriate?"
Qing Long spoke, his brow furrowed. Judging by Bai Hu's demeanor, he did not intend to capture Lu Fan alive.
"What is inappropriate about it!"
Bai Hu said coldly, "Do not forget, I am the Young Master of the Mansion, and the future controller of the Mansion!"
Qing Long frowned. Although he was unwilling, Bai Hu's words were not incorrect.
Within the Eighth Prince's Mansion, no one who dared to defy the Young Master had a good end.
Shangguan Qingtian watched from the side, quite pleased. With the Eighth Prince's Mansion taking action, he could sit back and watch the tigers fight.
Meanwhile, within the Fire Domain, Elder Tian and Lu Fan exchanged several blows but did not gain the upper hand. "I truly did not expect your cultivation to advance so rapidly in just a few days!"
"You flatter me!"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, "Rest assured, one day, you will die by my hand!"
"Since that is the case, today is your day of death!"
Elder Tian sneered, his palm surging with spiritual energy, his expression growing colder.
A massive palm, eclipsing the sun and moon, struck towards Lu Fan.
However, within the Fire Domain, Lu Fan moved as if in an open realm. With swift movements, he dodged those attacks.
Suddenly, sparks flew from Lu Fan's palm, transforming into streaks of fire arrows that shot towards Elder Tian.
Sensing this aura, Elder Tian's body paused, and he retreated continuously, a hint of panic in his expression.
The flames unleashed by Lu Fan were extraordinary, and he dared not be careless.
Seeing that Elder Tian could not suppress Lu Fan for the moment, Bai Hu's brow immediately furrowed.
Lu Fan's strength was not this formidable before. However, in these past few days, he seemed to have advanced considerably. If this continued, he would undoubtedly be a threat to the Eighth Prince's Mansion.
"You all assist as well. Ensure you capture him!"
Bai Hu looked at Elder Yun and the others, his expression indifferent.
The two elders did not say much and directly stepped forward.
Zhu Que, however, exclaimed in surprise, "So young, yet able to contend with a second-grade Venerable. If this child grows, he will surely be a future threat!"
"Most importantly, he does not seem to have reached the Spirit Venerable realm!"
Xuan Wu said with a wry smile, "Yet he can fight beyond his level!"
Qing Long stood to the side, also frowning. He had naturally noticed the anomaly.
Duan Tianya and the others stood, watching the scene, unsure of what to do.
