"I don't know what you're talking about!"
The old village chief's expression was indifferent, and he said coldly, "Since you've finished your meal, you should leave quickly and stop talking nonsense here!"
"If I'm not mistaken, you must have quit the Assassin Dynasty, otherwise, you wouldn't be living in seclusion in Niujia Village!" Lu Fan said lightly.
"Young man, I really don't know what you're talking about. If you don't leave, I'll have to call for help!" The old village chief's eyes were icy.
"Grandpa, what's going on?"
Just then, a woman walked over. She looked lively and mischievous, and she stared at Lu Fan for a long time. Their Niujia Village had never had outsiders before, and these few people looked quite good.
"Ling'er, why are you here?"
The old village chief shot her a glare. "Didn't I tell you? Outsiders have come to the village, so don't come out easily, lest you attract unwanted attention!"
"I don't think they look like bad people, so I came out to take a look," Ling'er said, shaking her head. "Besides, I'm already this old, why should I care about such things."
The old village chief was furious but had no choice but to say anything more.
Lu Fan, however, seemed lost in thought. He smiled at the old village chief and said, "I'll wait outside. If the old village chief has the leisure, you can talk with me. I will never make things difficult for you!"
After speaking, Lu Fan glanced at Ling'er again, his gaze quite meaningful.
After Lu Fan left, the old village chief frowned and looked at Ling'er. "How many times have I told you, child? I told you not to come out, why don't you ever listen?"
"I don't think they are bad people, and they won't hurt me."
Ling'er said seriously, her words completely unreserved.
"What do you know? The world is full of dangers, and there are many things you don't understand!" The old village chief shook his head, his tone even more reproachful.
Ling'er, however, was dismissive and didn't take it to heart.
"Old village chief, I don't think they look like bad people either. Why be so vigilant!" Da Long said with a smile. "Besides, there are so many people in Niujia Village. If there were any bad people, they couldn't do much!"
Facing these words, the old village chief said nothing more, but his brow furrowed slightly. He knew very well that some things were not as simple as they seemed.
After leaving Niujia Village, Sister Zhao asked, "We're leaving like this. Aren't we supposed to be looking for news about the Assassin Dynasty?"
"If I'm not mistaken, the old village chief will come to find us!"
Lu Fan said with a light laugh. "We'll rest here for a while, don't worry too much!"
"You're that confident?" Xu Fei glanced at him, looking somewhat suspicious.
"He should be from the Assassin Dynasty, but for some reason, he doesn't have any aura on him."
Lu Fan shook his head. "It's possible that the Assassin Dynasty has a unique secret technique for concealing their aura, which allows him to be like this!"
"I've heard before that the Assassin Dynasty has the Gui Xi Da Fa, which can conceal one's aura and kill without a trace!" Sister Zhao said. "If that person is truly an assassin from the Assassin Dynasty, what should we do if he attacks us?"
"What's there to fear with three against one?"
Xu Fei shrugged. "With that old man, he can't stir up any trouble."
"Don't you forget how Chen Xian'er died!"
Sister Zhao said directly. "I heard that Saint-level assassins are like pigs and dogs in front of him. If he really wants to make a move, with our strength, it's impossible!"
"It's okay, we'll just be more vigilant!"
Lu Fan shrugged. In fact, he was also worried, but to investigate clearly, he had to stay.
However, after a long time, they did not see the old village chief. Xu Fei was somewhat suspicious. "Will this old fellow come or not? If he doesn't come, aren't we just waiting in vain?"
"As long as he's confirmed to be an assassin from the Dynasty, he will definitely come!" Lu Fan said indifferently. "But judging by his demeanor, he has already retired from the Dynasty for many years!"
At the same time, within Niujia Village, the old village chief observed carefully for a moment, his brow also furrowed slightly. They thought Lu Fan and his group would leave, but unexpectedly, they were still waiting outside Niujia Village. This made him even more displeased.
When the night was quiet, Lu Fan and the other two closed their eyes and slowly sensed the power of heaven and earth. But at that very moment, they felt a murderous intent.
"Be careful, the old man is here!" Lu Fan warned, then suddenly got up and looked around.
Sister Zhao also frowned, her expression becoming more vigilant. Saint-level assassins were not ordinary, and even if they wanted to stop him, they might not succeed.
"Niujia Village is not a place you should come to. Why are you lingering here!"
The old village chief's figure flickered. He was dressed in black, and a terrifying aura emanated from him, as if he could kill Lu Fan and the others in an instant.
"I want to enter the Assassin Dynasty!"
Lu Fan said directly. "I want senior to guide me."
"I have retired from the Assassin Dynasty for many years, and the Assassin Dynasty no longer exists."
The old village chief said directly. "You boy don't need to court death."
"If the Assassin Dynasty no longer exists, why did one of my friends die at the hands of the Assassin Dynasty?"
Lu Fan smiled faintly. "I can't sense any aura from you. I assume you used the Gui Xi technique. Such divine power is indeed incredible, capable of killing without a trace."
"This is absolutely impossible. All assassins of the Assassin Dynasty have been disbanded. How could your friend have been killed by someone from the Assassin Dynasty!" The old village chief shook his head.
"Perhaps the Assassin Dynasty has risen from the ashes again?" Lu Fan narrowed his eyes. "Therefore, I must find the killer to comfort the spirit of my friend in heaven."
"You boy's tone is quite bold!" The old village chief sneered. "Beings like you are nothing in front of a Saint-level assassin. I advise you not to court death!"
"So you are also a Saint-level assassin?"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes. "I can sense the aura of death from you."
"Since you know, why ask so many questions!" Su Dan Xiaoshuo Wang
The old village chief said coldly. "Some things are not meant to be, and you shouldn't have come to Niujia Village. I can keep today's matter a secret and not make a move against you, but if you dare to step foot in Niujia Village again in the future, I will show no mercy."
"Old village chief, why must you do this!"
Lu Fan said with a wry smile. "I just want to find the real killer. If the old village chief is unwilling to help me, I will definitely not leave."
"Are you threatening me?" The old village chief's eyes instantly emitted a murderous intent, staring intently at Lu Fan.
"You could say that!"
Lu Fan shrugged, his gaze appearing calm, as if all of this was insignificant in his eyes.
