"According to what you've said, the outer battlefield seems more terrifying than we imagined!" Han Yunhai said earnestly.
"If it weren't terrifying, why would people fear it!" Lu Fan said in a deep voice, "With this trip to the outer battlefield, the Qingyun Sect will surely be reborn!"
"Sir, is your meticulous planning all for dealing with the Black Shadow?" Han Yunhai asked.
"Not just the Black Shadow!" Lu Fan frowned, "The Dragon Country has shown weakness, and the outer battlefield has suffered heavy losses repeatedly. If there were a strong martial force to support it, the situation would not be like this. We are all people of the Dragon Country, how can we stand by and watch the Dragon Country be insulted by others!"
Han Yunhai's body trembled, his eyes filled with excitement. Lu Fan's words had instantly moved him.
"By the way, has there been any news about the old man yet?" Lu Fan suddenly asked, "I've already promised my second uncle that I must find my elder uncle and grandmother!"
"The Qingyun Sect's influence is widespread, but after all, they went into hiding eighteen years ago, making it quite difficult to find them!" Han Yunhai said with a wry smile, "If there is any news, I will inform you immediately!"
Lu Fan nodded slightly and didn't say any more.
If he could find his grandmother and the others sooner, it would also allow his second uncle and the others to reunite, which was a burden on Lu Fan's heart.
If it hadn't been for the Lu family back then, the Yang family would not have been implicated. This was why Lu Fan cared so much.
Meanwhile, in a certain place in Chu Prefecture, Yang Shiwen looked at Yang Zixin and said, "Zixin, be honest with your dad, what exactly does Xiao Fan do?"
"Dad, why are you suddenly asking this?"
Yang Zixin was cracking sunflower seeds, his expression changing.
"Xiao Fan has been an orphan since childhood, and no one has ever disciplined him!" Yang Shiwen said in a deep voice, "How can he have such great capabilities?"
"Perhaps he encountered some opportunity!" Yang Zixin said casually, "Dad, don't worry about it, Xiao Fan is very capable, nothing will happen to him!"
"Has this child gone astray?" Yang Shiwen's words were serious.
When Lu Fan easily produced millions, he had already felt something was not right. Later events had made him even more suspicious.
"Dad, don't let your imagination run wild!" Yang Zixin said with a wry smile, "Xiao Fan will never go astray. I promise you, there are some things I cannot tell you, so don't inquire about them!"
After speaking, Yang Zixin stepped into the room. Lu Fan was no longer the same as before, but he had promised Lu Fan not to reveal anything, lest Yang Shiwen worry, which was why he kept silent.
As the sky gradually darkened, in the Jiangjing Villa, Han Qiushui, with a puzzled heart, came to Lu Fan's room, "Master, Xiao Jia has been out for a day and hasn't returned. This has never happened before. Could something have happened?"
"She still hasn't returned?"
Lu Fan got up, his brow furrowed.
If it were anyone else, he wouldn't be worried. Only for Lin Xiaojia did Lu Fan know very well that Lin Xiaojia's background was unusual. If experts from the Ten Thousand Mountains came, there would indeed be trouble.
"She still hasn't returned!" Han Qiushui shook his head.
Lu Fan didn't say much and asked Han Yunhai to investigate. The Qingyun Sect had many experts within Chu Prefecture. If anything happened, they would surely sense it.
For a moment, everyone held their breath. Under normal circumstances, Lin Xiaojia would never have returned so late, and this had never happened before.
"Where has the eccentric old man gone?" Lu Fan suddenly asked in surprise.
"The eccentric old man's whereabouts are always unpredictable," Gu Wen said, "He must have gone somewhere to play again. However, he didn't leave with Lin Xiaojia."
Lu Fan's expression changed instantly. If that were the case, this matter would be tricky.
Everyone waited in the hall. After a long time, Han Yunhai arrived, "The Qingyun Sect's experts have checked, and there are traces of Grandmaster fighting in the nearby forest!"
"Grandmaster fighting?" Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, "The Arctic Tribe is truly seeking death!"
"Sir, if it is indeed the work of the Arctic Tribe, what shall we do?" Han Yunhai asked, "After all, the Ten Thousand Mountains are full of experts, and they are a forbidden zone for us."
"Gather a hundred Grandmasters of the Qingyun Sect. If it is indeed the work of the Arctic Tribe, I don't mind annihilating them!"
Lu Fan's words were filled with killing intent. If it were before, he might not have had this confidence, but now his strength had greatly increased, and the Qingyun Sect had a hundred Grandmasters. Such a powerful aura could not be stopped by others.
"Your subordinate obeys!"
Han Yunhai cupped his fists, his eyes filled with excitement. The Qingyun Sect had never fought a battle since it had a hundred Grandmasters. Now that Lu Fan was going to act against the Arctic Tribe, it would surely be a formidable display.
"Master, I heard that there are many tribes in the Ten Thousand Mountains," Gu Wen stepped forward and said, "Should we clarify this matter before making a decision?"
"No need!" Lu Fan waved his hand, "Besides the Arctic Tribe, no one else would dare to touch Lin Xiaojia. I promised Granny Viper that I would never let anything happen to her!"
Gu Wen nodded and couldn't say anything more. This was Lu Fan's decision, and he could only obey it silently. However, with a hundred Grandmasters in the Qingyun Sect, they were fearless.
"One hundred Grandmasters are dispatched." Han Qiushui was shocked, "What kind of might is this? Perhaps only the Qingyun Sect in the entire Dragon Country possesses such strength."
The current Qingyun Sect must hold a significant position within the Dragon Country, and with a mere raise of a hand, they possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth.
And not long after, in the core region of the Dragon Country headquarters, several elders sat opposite each other, their brows furrowed.
"Is this news reliable? The Qingyun Sect is going to the Ten Thousand Mountains?"
"Esteemed Elders, the news is absolutely true," Long Aotian cupped his fists, "The actions of Lord Lu might cause trouble. After all, there are hidden powers in the Ten Thousand Mountains, which even the Dragon Country fears. If he acts rashly, it will cause great inconvenience."
"In that case, it is indeed inappropriate." The Ninth Elder nodded, and the other elders nodded in succession.
The relationship between the Dragon Country and the Sea Country was delicate. If there was a disagreement, a great war would ensue. In this way, the headquarters of the forces within the Dragon Country would not dare to offend easily, otherwise, if a war broke out, it would cause a huge uproar.
"I will go personally!" The Ninth Elder said, "That brat has a fiery temper, but as an elder of the Dragon Country, he should give me some face."
The other elders looked at each other and nodded. This was a sensitive period, and no mistakes could be made.
"I will accompany the Ninth Elder!" Long Aotian cupped his fists.
"Hold on!"
The Fourth Elder waved his hand, "I think you'd better not go. If he has truly decided to go to the Ten Thousand Mountains, he must have his own plans. Even if you go, it will be of no use."
"The Ten Thousand Mountains are full of experts, and there are terrifying powers," Long Aotian said repeatedly, "If we do not dissuade him, it will inevitably cause trouble."
Long Aotian's words were sharp. He knew that Lu Fan had close ties with the Dragon Country, and if he were to come into conflict with any force, it would also affect the Dragon Country's relationship with that force.
