After a small farce, everyone calmed down, and even paid close attention to the duel three days later. If they could become the sect leader's first disciple, they would have great potential in the future, and might even enter the Assassin Dynasty and become a core figure.
How could they not know this? Therefore, within these three days, many people tried their best to stand out from the numerous assassins.
Of course, there were also some people who wanted to become the first disciple simply for Mudan. Only by becoming the sect leader's first disciple could they gain Mudan's favor. Everyone firmly believed this.
And within these three days, Lu Fan was very leisurely. He had no intention of cultivating. Instead, he planned to stroll around Lion Peak. In fact, he had already reached the bottleneck of a Saint, and could break through at any time if he wished. However, he still wanted to suppress it for a while.
After all, Lu Fan knew very well that the longer he suppressed it, the better it would be for his cultivation. Moreover, with the Ancient Divine Body, he was invincible among peers. If he truly broke through to the Saint realm, there would probably not be many people who could contend with him.
This was also why Lu Fan was so confident about the competition three days later.
After strolling around Lion Peak, Lu Fan suddenly heard the sound of splashing water ahead. He took a few steps forward, but at that moment, Lu Fan stopped. Looking at the figure dancing gracefully in the lake, his face couldn't help but blush slightly.
Mudan was indeed the object of everyone's admiration. Her figure and skin were irresistible. Just as Lu Fan was fantasizing, Mudan in the water suddenly disappeared, as if she had completely vanished.
Lu Fan sensed that something was wrong, and his expression changed instantly.
Boom...
A loud noise erupted, and Lu Fan was sent flying. Blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth. If he hadn't possessed the Ancient Divine Body, he would have already perished. He never expected Mudan to be so ruthless.
"You brat, how dare you trespass into my territory and dare to peek at me bathing!"
Mudan's expression was cold, and her gaze towards Lu Fan was filled with killing intent. However, she was somewhat surprised. The palm strike she had just unleashed would have killed even a Saint. Yet, Lu Fan had endured it. It was worth noting that Lu Fan did not possess Saint aura yet and was only a half-saint.
"Senior Sister Mudan, please don't misunderstand. I didn't know you were bathing, so I trespassed!"
Lu Fan quickly explained. He was unwilling to die like this on Lion Peak.
Being caught peeking at someone bathing and then being killed – how could such a story be accepted if it got out?
"You don't need to explain. My rule is that anyone who sees my body must die," Mudan said coldly. "You are the most audacious person I have ever met, so you must also die!"
"Senior Sister Mudan, that's too unreasonable. If you say so, I won't be polite!"
Lu Fan said indifferently. He knew that begging for mercy was useless, especially with a woman like this.
"What, you intend to be impolite to me?"
Mudan smiled instantly, her gaze coldly fixed on Lu Fan. She had never taken him seriously before. Lu Fan was nothing in her eyes, yet he dared to say such a thing.
"I can pretend this never happened, and I will never reveal it!"
Lu Fan smiled and said, "I hope Senior Sister Mudan will let me go. That would be enough!"
"What are your chips?" Mudan chuckled coldly. She wanted to see what Lu Fan would say.
"If Senior Sister Mudan truly wants to kill me, she might not be able to do it instantly. But if I loudly spread this matter throughout Lion Peak, Senior Sister Mudan's reputation might be damaged!" Lu Fan shrugged. "This is my chip."
"Are you threatening me?" Mudan narrowed her eyes, finding Lu Fan even more interesting. Although he was young, he dared to threaten her like this. No one on Lion Peak had such audacity. Even Hundred-Faced Scholar wouldn't dare to peek at her bathing.
"Senior Sister can think of it that way!" Lu Fan shrugged. "I was also forced, and I hope Senior Sister can understand!"
Mudan sneered, "Do you think I will be threatened by you? You will surely die today. If you dare to spread this matter, I will exterminate your entire clan, not just kill you alone!"
"Senior Sister Mudan, I don't have a clan!" Lu Fan shrugged. "You should think carefully!"
"You brat, you're good with words, but you will surely die today!"
Mudan stepped forward, her expression appearing cold. Lu Fan was so ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth, daring to peek at her bathing. How could she tolerate it?
As Mudan took a step forward, intending to deal with Lu Fan, Lu Fan instantly leaped into the air. At the same time, his spiritual energy spread out: "I, Lu Fan, unintentionally saw Senior Sister Mudan bathing, and she intends to kill me. Fellow disciples, please judge!"
As this voice spread, many disciples looked on, wondering what had happened. However, they had heard the voice clearly just now, and some found it incredible.
The voice came from Mudan's territory, and that territory was at the waterfall. It was unlikely to be wrong.
Upon hearing the familiar voice, the old village chief's face instantly turned grim. He never expected Lu Fan to be so lustful that he would peek at Mudan bathing. It was simply courting death.
At the same time, Mudan also froze in place, looking at Lu Fan with disbelief. She never expected Lu Fan to be so direct and expose the matter.
Under normal circumstances, no one would dare to do such a thing. Only Lu Fan was like this, even without any scruples.
Seeing Mudan's stunned expression, Lu Fan did not dare to hesitate. He quickly unleashed the Art of Returning to the West and concealed his figure. He could feel that Mudan was about to explode, and if she found him, he would likely be skinned alive.
At the same time, quite a few men had already arrived, their eyes filled with disbelief. They were preparing to watch the show when they saw Lu Fan unleash the Art of Returning to the West and vanish into the void.
"Let's see how long you can last!"
Mudan's expression was cold, and she instantly unleashed her Saint aura, sealing the entire Lion Peak. She had never been bullied like this before. How could she let such a thing go?
Seeing this, the old village chief looked helpless. He never expected Lu Fan to cause such great trouble before the three days were even up.
"Junior Sister Mudan, since that person peeked at you bathing, he must have feelings for you. Why are you targeting him so much!"
A man in black suddenly appeared, smiling and saying, "Why not try to be with him? Perhaps love can blossom!"
