By the time it was late at night, Lu Fan handed the pills to the four elders. They were overjoyed. They had clearly seen that many experts from the Qingyun Sect had received pills that day, but they had not.
"These pills are what I refined for a day. The pills you hold are of better efficacy, so you can take them yourselves," Lu Fan said frankly. "I have some auxiliary pills here, and I will distribute them to everyone!"
"Many thanks, my lord!" The leading elder cupped his fists, feeling even more grateful.
The many experts from the Heavenly Kill outpost, before even integrating into the Qingyun Sect, had received such a blessing, how could they not be moved?
"The Heavenly Kill outpost will still be managed by the four of you from now on," Lu Fan stated. "Your strength is not weak, and managing the Heavenly Kill outpost will be effortless for you!"
"This..."
The elders looked surprised. "My lord, aren't you afraid we will betray you? And act against you in the future."
"Do not employ those you distrust, and do not distrust those you employ!" Lu Fan waved his hand. "I believe in you, and you won't disappoint me!"
"With your lord's trust, we will go through fire and water for you!"
The four elders were excited and filled with gratitude. Lu Fan's magnanimity made them admire him immensely.
After the elders left, Han Qiushui entered with a bowl of ginseng soup. "This is specially brewed for you, master. You've been refining pills all day, so you should replenish yourself!"
"You're quite caring!" Lu Fan glanced at her. "Were you eavesdropping outside just now?"
"I wasn't eavesdropping!" Han Qiushui said awkwardly. "That's called being open and aboveboard. But your strategy is truly brilliant, giving a blow and then a sweet. This way, they will surely submit to your command."
"You see quite clearly!" Lu Fan sneered. "Don't they know this too? It's just that their strength is insufficient, so they can only do this."
"Master's insight is indeed profound!"
Han Qiushui nodded slightly. "We've been in the Outer Realm battlefield for some time now. We've occupied two outposts, which is a small achievement!"
"The Sea Kingdom has over a hundred outposts, and other kingdoms have several hundred!" Lu Fan said. "Only the Dragon Kingdom has very few outposts in the Outer Realm battlefield. This is extremely dangerous!"
"If that's the case, why doesn't the Dragon Kingdom use force to annex these outposts?" Han Qiushui asked in surprise. "This way, the danger can be averted!"
"Occupying outposts in the Outer Realm battlefield means being a overlord or a powerful expert from another kingdom. The Dragon Kingdom is a kingdom, and it cannot easily take action, otherwise, it would provoke a war between kingdoms," Lu Fan explained. "This is also why I am unwilling to become an elder of the Dragon Kingdom. Once I become an elder, I will be constrained!"
"I see!" Han Qiushui nodded, feeling a surge of emotion. So, everything Lu Fan was doing was for the Dragon Kingdom.
"Alright, I've finished the ginseng soup. You should return to your room now," Lu Fan said. "My aura has been unstable these past few days, and I need to calm my mind!"
Han Qiushui quickly nodded and then left the room.
Closing the door, Lu Fan took out the meteorite from his怀 and kept looking at it. He didn't know if it was because he had activated the Star Meteorite last time, but Lu Fan had a feeling that the Star Meteorite on him could continuously enhance his strength.
Compared to his strength before coming to the Outer Realm battlefield, Lu Fan felt even more powerful now and was quite curious about the Star Meteorite.
Unfortunately, he never knew the origin of this Star Meteorite or its connection to the Lu family. Perhaps only Du Qianqiu knew the secret.
After all, it was Du Qianqiu who sent people to deal with the Lu family back then, with the Star Meteorite as their objective. Although Lu Fan now possessed the strength of a War King, he dared not act rashly.
After coming to the Outer Realm battlefield, he realized how powerful the Black Shadow Organization was. It had eighteen outposts alone, not including hidden ones. Such a behemoth could almost be called a small kingdom.
Being able to achieve such a status in the Outer Realm battlefield was enough to show Du Qianqiu's strength, which was why Lu Fan dared not act rashly.
However, Lu Fan was puzzled. Du Qianqiu controlled eighteen outposts, so his information should be well-informed. He likely already knew that he had come to the Outer Realm battlefield, but for some reason, he had never come to trouble him. This seemed unusual.
As Lu Fan was contemplating, a shadow flashed by like a gust of wind.
"Who is it!"
Lu Fan's voice was cold. He put away the Star Meteorite and then stepped towards the door. He carefully scanned the surroundings but found no trace.
However, Lu Fan was certain that someone had been near his room just now, and their strength was extremely powerful, otherwise, they wouldn't have such skill.
While puzzled, Lu Fan sensed outwards from the Heavenly Kill outpost and vaguely felt the approach of a strong individual.
But Lu Fan did not raise an alarm. Instead, he walked out of the Heavenly Kill outpost alone. He guessed correctly that some expert must be coming for him.
Since that was the case, Lu Fan would not be a coward. If he was truly no match, he did not want to implicate everyone.
Arriving at a forest, Lu Fan stopped. "This is far enough from the Heavenly Kill outpost. Why don't you show yourselves?"
"Lord Lu is indeed remarkable, able to conceal our presence!"
Elder Shangguan smiled. "Last time, at the border of the Dragon Kingdom, I was pursued by you juniors all the way. I lost face!"
"So it's Elder Shangguan from the Sea Kingdom!"
Lu Fan smiled faintly. "I was wondering who it was!"
"And me!"
Suddenly, Elder Ouyang appeared, his eyes fixed on Lu Fan. "If it weren't for you, my grandson wouldn't have died. Today, you cannot escape."
"Another War King!" Lu Fan frowned. Elder Shangguan alone was not to be underestimated, and with this elder in front of him, it was even more troublesome.
"Lord Lu, you might not know, let me introduce myself!" Elder Shangguan narrowed his eyes. "The person in front of you is Elder Ouyang, and he is the grandfather of Ouyang Qinghuo. The Ouyang family has a long lineage, and now their line has been severed. Today, you will likely fight to the death."
"So it's Old Master Ouyang!" Lu Fan shrugged. "This is a huge misunderstanding. Ouyang Qinghuo was not killed by me, but by Elder Wuji of the Sea Kingdom. You can't blame me for this matter!"
"If it weren't for you, why would my grandson go to the Star City outpost!"
Elder Ouyang's face turned ashen. He also knew that Ouyang Qinghuo's death was related to Elder Wuji, but at this point, he could only trouble Lu Fan. Su Dan Novel Network.
"As the saying goes, if you want to condemn someone, you can find a pretext!" Lu Fan sneered. "You can't deal with Elder Wuji, so you want to attack me. This is unfair!"
"You little brat, stop talking nonsense," Elder Shangguan said coldly. "If you end yourself, perhaps you'll be granted a whole corpse."
"Although I am young, I am not a pushover," Lu Fan said coldly. "With just the two of you today, you might not be able to do anything to me!"
