Lu Fan's lips curled up slightly as he looked at the many men and said, "Tianhu Gang, is it? Who is the leader?"
"I am the leader of the Tianhu Gang!"
A figure slowly stepped out, exuding an aura that suggested nothing else in the presence of the onlookers mattered to him.
Lu Fan glanced at him and said coldly, "Hand over the item, and I'll spare your life. Otherwise, you die!"
Tianhu burst into laughter at these words, his eyes becoming even sharper. "You have quite the nerve, kid. This is the underground merchant guild, with countless experts. Moreover, my Tianhu Gang is a reputable presence here. Are you being too arrogant with your words?"
Following these words, Lu Fan sneered, "If that's truly the case, why would the Tianhu Gang assist someone in committing violence!"
At these words, the expressions of the crowd shifted slightly. They hadn't expected Lu Fan to ask such a question, catching them off guard.
"When has the Tianhu Gang ever needed anyone to inform them of their actions?" Tianhu said coldly. "I advise you not to cause trouble here, or you'll regret it."
Lu Fan said no more, but his aura surged continuously, carrying a powerful momentum. In his eyes, he seemed to disregard everyone present.
Within the underground merchant guild, many people watched, their hearts filled with shock. They hadn't expected Lu Fan to be so forceful, to attack the members of the Tianhu Gang. This required immense courage.
Everyone knew that the Tianhu Gang was no ordinary force, and a single misstep could lead to unforeseen disaster.
"If you can avoid it, it's best not to fight!"
Liu Shuqin's expression changed slightly as she reminded Lu Fan. She didn't want anything to happen to him.
But Lu Fan smiled faintly at her words. "Don't worry, these people can't do anything to me. If they don't hand over the Nine Dragon Grass, I won't give up!"
Following these words, the expressions of everyone present turned grim. They knew very well that some things could be done, and some could not. Offending Lu Fan for the Nine Dragon Grass was not a good thing.
When they had made their move, they already knew that Lu Fan's strength was extraordinary. If he were to attack again, it would not be a simple matter for the Tianhu Gang.
Thinking of this, the leader of the Tianhu Gang smiled and said, "The situation has reached this point, and it's extremely disadvantageous for us. You're right, the Nine Dragon Grass is on me. However, this is the work of the Heavenly God Temple. And soon, we will hand over the Nine Dragon Grass to the Heavenly God Temple. If you're willing, you can go directly to the Heavenly God Temple!"
"You are truly laughable. You steal someone's belongings and then tell them to go elsewhere to retrieve them. Isn't that too much?" Liu Ruyan sneered. "I've never seen anything like this!"
"We can't help it!"
The leader of the Tianhu Gang said with a wry smile, "After all, we've accepted the order, and we have to complete it. Otherwise, it would be a great loss of credibility for our Tianhu Gang!"
"What does what you say have to do with me?" Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, a smile playing on his lips. "What I need to do now is to obtain the Nine Dragon Grass. If anyone dares to stop me, they will only die!"
Following these words, everyone's expressions turned grim. They hadn't expected things to turn out this way. Lu Fan's words clearly carried a hint of anger. If a fight were to break out, it would definitely not be a good thing for them.
At the same time, Lu Fan spoke again, "Hand over the Nine Dragon Grass, and I might spare your lives. Otherwise, you will surely die!"
"You truly have great courage. What right do you have to threaten us here?" Tianhu said coldly. "Do you really think our Tianhu Gang is afraid of you?"
"If words don't match, then let's fight!"
Lu Fan's expression was cold, carrying a chilling aura. In that instant, he surged towards Tianhu. Since the Nine Dragon Grass was on him, all of this was insignificant.
Sensing Lu Fan's powerful aura, Tianhu's expression changed slightly. He hadn't expected Lu Fan to actually make a move, especially since this was the Tianhu Gang's territory, not just any ordinary place.
"Why aren't you all attacking!" Tianhu shouted repeatedly, his expression grave. He knew very well that Lu Fan's strength was superior to his, and dealing with him would not be a good thing.
The other members also attacked, trying to suppress Lu Fan. However, the Haotian Pagoda floated behind Lu Fan, exuding an imposing aura. The entire underground merchant guild fell silent. They could clearly feel Lu Fan's terrifying presence.
Such a powerful aura was not something they could easily resist. If they displeased Lu Fan, it would undoubtedly be a great trouble for them.
Seeing this scene, Tianhu's face turned grim. Although they were all Martial Emperor realm experts, they were not ordinary people. Now that the situation had come to this, their advantage was likely lost.
Liu Shuqin stood aside, her heart deeply moved. Although she knew Lu Fan was not simple, she hadn't expected him to be able to suppress Tianhu, and still appear fearless in front of the many experts of the Tianhu Gang.
"You don't need to attack, I am enough. I want to see what capabilities the Tianhu Gang has, to dare covet my belongings!" Lu Fan's voice was cold, carrying an imposing aura.
Following these words, the expressions of the crowd turned grim. Especially the members of the Tianhu Gang, who were filled with worry. They were all Martial Emperor realm experts, but for some reason, in front of Lu Fan, they seemed insignificant.
Lu Fan showed no hesitation. In a flash, he obtained the Nine Dragon Grass and simultaneously sent Tianhu flying with a palm strike, his expression even colder. Now that he was a Martial Emperor realm expert, he didn't care about them at all.
Meanwhile, Tianhu spat out a mouthful of blood, his face looking extremely unpleasant. He had never expected Lu Fan to be like this, catching him completely off guard.
After obtaining the Nine Dragon Grass, Lu Fan was satisfied. He then looked at Tianhu and said, "You are truly audacious to dare to be so presumptuous in front of me. Today, you have been defeated by me. Do you have anything else to say?"
"The victor is king, the vanquished is a bandit. What else is there to say!"
Tianhu's expression was indifferent, with a natural rebellious streak. It seemed that in his eyes, this was not worth mentioning.
"Since that's the case, then die!" Lu Fan's expression was cold.
