"If these peerless divine weapons are fully revived, they will surely cause endless trouble!"
Within Glazed City, the crowd spoke out, their hearts filled with worry. They knew very well that this was no trifling matter, as it involved significant stakes and their very lives.
"But the peerless divine weapons have already been revived. If they cannot be forcibly suppressed, the Huo family will likely be annihilated, and more importantly, the entire Glazed City will suffer!"
The crowd chattered amongst themselves, their hearts growing more anxious. They were extremely wary of their own lives, knowing that a single misstep could lead to utter ruin.
Meanwhile, Lu Fan's expression turned cold. Even if he hadn't intended to enter the Central State Academy today, he was determined to make the Huo family pay.
The Huo family patriarch also felt an inexplicable pressure, making him doubt whether he could withstand Lu Fan's methods.
Just then, a hoarse voice rang out, "This is Glazed City, you cannot use peerless divine weapons. You brat, stealing my jade token, you are truly audacious!"
As this voice echoed, a white-haired elder appeared before the crowd. This was Elder Wuming.
Those who could become elders of the Central State Academy were no ordinary individuals. The aura emanating from Elder Wuming was naturally terrifying.
"Elder Wuming, this person is audacious and dared to steal your jade token and act recklessly here. We absolutely cannot let him off today!"
The Huo family patriarch smiled, his voice filled with hope. With Elder Wuming's intervention, all problems could be resolved.
"Old man, I know you are an elder of the Central State Academy, but this is a personal vendetta between me and the Huo family. I hope you will not interfere!"
Lu Fan said indifferently, his gaze fixed on the elder. His words were serious.
The people of Glazed City were startled by this. They had not expected Lu Fan to say such a thing, which was truly shocking.
After all, this was Elder Wuming, whose strength was unfathomable, and an elder of the Central State. No one dared to act presumptuously before him, yet Lu Fan's words were puzzling.
"Young man, I have lived for so many years, and you are the first person to speak to me this way!"
Elder Wuming smiled faintly, his gaze upon Lu Fan without any killing intent, but rather with considerable admiration.
"I am merely speaking the truth!"
Lu Fan shrugged. "I hope you will not interfere, senior! This is a private matter between me and the Huo family!"
"But this is also a territory under the jurisdiction of the Central State Academy. I cannot let you act recklessly!"
Elder Wuming waved his hand, and the entire Glazed City's barrier instantly activated, restoring the restrictions perfectly.
The peerless divine weapon Lu Fan had unleashed was suppressed by these restrictions, making Lu Fan's expression instantly grim. He had clearly underestimated Elder Wuming's strength.
"Young brother, I know you have a grudge against the Huo family, but you have already killed the Huo family's young master. Must you continue to be so relentless?" Elder Wuming said directly. "After all, no matter what, you have the upper hand. Why be so insistent?"
"I didn't want this either, but their actions were indeed a bit too much!"
Lu Fan stated directly. "Elder Wuming, since you know so much, you should also know about some of the things Huo Dong did. Anyone who does such things deserves to die!"
"I am aware of all these things, but that is not a reason for you to destroy the Huo family. Huo Dong has already been detained, and that should be enough!"
Elder Wuming said seriously, his eyes filled with earnestness, showing no signs of evasion.
"So Elder Wuming knows all of this? Then why didn't Elder Wuming intervene?" Lu Fan asked with a faint smile. "Could it be that these matters were instigated by Elder Wuming!"
"How dare you speak to Elder Wuming like that!"
The elders of the Huo family rebuked coldly, their gazes upon Lu Fan filled with sharp hostility.
Lu Fan sneered, not paying them much mind. If it weren't for the Huo family, he wouldn't have caused such a commotion.
"All of you, be quiet! I know everything!"
Elder Wuming waved his hand and then looked at the Huo family patriarch. "Huo Dong deserved his fate. You, as his father, should know what he did, so there's no need to pursue it further. Let this matter be settled amicably. If anyone dares to pursue it further, don't blame this old man for being merciless!"
The Huo family patriarch was slightly taken aback. "Elder Wuming, he killed my son and doesn't even regard our Huo family with respect. How can this matter be so easily dismissed!"
"What, are my words no longer effective!"
Elder Wuming said coldly. "You Huo family have done many things, and you know them best. Even your son, you must have known!"
The Huo family patriarch was stunned, his face turning ashen. After Elder Wuming's words, he suddenly felt guilty and dared not argue further.
"Young brother, your talent is indeed extraordinary. If you can enter the Central State Academy, you might be able to compete with the prodigies of the Central State Academy!"
Elder Wuming smiled faintly and looked at Lu Fan. "However, this matter ends here. If you still wish to contend, I will make both of you disappear simultaneously, never to appear in Glazed City again. As for where you will be sent, that will depend on your fortune!"
"Since Senior has said so, I naturally dare not disobey!"
Lu Fan nodded slightly, his expression indifferent. After Elder Wuming's words, he felt he had not lost out. Huo Dong had died by his hand, and now that the matter was settled, it was the Huo family who should be dissatisfied.
The Huo family patriarch stood aside, feeling helpless. Elder Wuming had personally spoken, and he dared not refute him. Moreover, this matter was not trivial. Lu Fan possessed a peerless divine weapon, and if the Huo family were to truly press the issue, they would likely gain no advantage.
"Since Elder Wuming has said so, I will naturally not act within Glazed City, so as not to affect the rules of the Central State Academy. However, outside of Glazed City, I will not easily let this matter go!"
The Huo family patriarch said coldly, his eyes filled with sharpness. Although displeased, he could not say much more.
Elder Wuming nodded slightly and said nothing more. As long as they did not fight here, it was the best outcome, and they would not have to worry excessively.
After the matter concluded, the Huo family members left, appearing displeased but with no other choice.
At the same time, Elder Wuming looked at Lu Fan. "The assessment for the Central State Academy is still some time away. You brat, don't cause any more trouble! Otherwise, even I won't be able to salvage the situation!"
