"Rest assured, my fifth brother is a man of great magnanimity and won't be angry!" Prince Bai Long said with a smile. "I didn't expect you to have such strength at such a young age. It's truly astonishing. Would you be willing to be my attendant?"
"I wouldn't dare!" Lu Fan clasped his fists, revealing an awkwardness. He hadn't expected Prince Bai Long to say that.
"Third Brother, although he has some talent, how can he be worthy of being your attendant!"
Yun Hai rolled his eyes. "With his strength, he probably doesn't have that capability!"
Faced with these words, Bai Long's brow furrowed slightly. He hadn't expected things to turn out this way, catching him off guard.
"Prince Yun Hai is right!" Lu Fan clasped his fists. "With my aptitude, I am naturally not qualified to be the Prince's attendant. The Prince's attendant should be inherited by someone better!"
"Don't be so humble!" Princess Beimei said. "You are no ordinary person, and you will surely grow in the future. It's just a bit of an under-utilization of your talent at present!"
"Beimei, aren't you overestimating him!"
With displeasure in his eyes, Prince Yun Hai said coldly, his expression even more indifferent, showing a sense of rejection towards Lu Fan.
Lu Fan, however, remained unfazed, revealing a smile. His gaze was even calmer, as if he didn't care about some things at all.
"Enough, enough, I don't want to stay any longer. If you want to play, do as you please!"
Prince Yun Hai said coldly and turned to leave, feeling rather displeased. It seemed that in his opinion, everyone was targeting him, which made him very unhappy.
After Prince Yun Hai left, Bai Long turned his gaze to Lu Fan. "Please don't be angry. My fifth brother is just like that. But he has a good temper, which is why he is like this!"
"It's alright, I don't mind!"
Lu Fan shook his head, revealing a smile, as if he didn't care about the matter at all.
"That's right, Fifth Brother is indeed like that!" Princess Beimei nodded. "But you have offended Fifth Brother, so you must be careful from now on. With Fifth Brother's temper, he's not to be trifled with!"
Faced with these words, Lu Fan was quite helpless. He naturally knew that Prince Yun Hai was not easy to deal with and felt a bit apprehensive. However, given the situation, he could only proceed as he had.
As they were talking, others were undergoing trials, wanting to enter this Heavenly Road. Unfortunately, no one succeeded. In the entire capital city, there were always such people every day who wished to enter the Heavenly Road, but their talent was insufficient. This might also be an extremely cruel matter for them.
Looking at these figures, everyone had a profound understanding. They knew very well that it was not easy to enter the Heavenly Road.
Liu Ruyan gazed at the Heavenly Road with a hint of indifference, as if disdainful, but she did not show it.
After leaving the Heavenly Road, they casually wandered around the capital city. Before long, Lu Fan returned to the inn, preparing to wait until nightfall to enter the Heavenly Road and see if it was truly as difficult to enter as the legends claimed.
Meanwhile, Ling'er and the others followed along, appearing quite clingy. Liu Ruyan, in particular, had been waiting for Lu Fan, eager to see if Lu Fan's strength was sufficient to enter the Heavenly Road.
However, as they were conversing, outside the inn, a familiar aura suddenly appeared. A figure leaped up, landing on top of the inn.
"It's you!" Lu Fan looked at the person before him, his brow furrowing slightly. "You have quite the audacity to come to the capital. Have you forgotten that your master has been imprisoned in the capital's celestial prison?"
"I haven't forgotten. I have come here today to beg you!"
Han Feixue spoke solemnly, her gaze directed at Lu Fan. "As long as you release my master, I am willing to do anything!"
"You've come to plead for leniency!" Lu Fan glanced at Han Feixue, his brow furrowing. He hadn't expected Han Feixue to be so humble in order to save her master.
"That's right, my master is imprisoned in the celestial prison, and I have no way to rescue him, which is why I've come to beg you!" Han Feixue said solemnly. "As long as you can rescue my master, I am willing to do anything!"
"Are you sure?" Lu Fan's eyes turned calm, his gaze falling upon the woman before him, his expression becoming even more earnest.
"There is absolutely no falsehood, nor will I deceive!" Han Feixue nodded solemnly. She had exhausted all her schemes, but none could bring about her master's release, which made her feel very helpless.
"It's not impossible!"
Lu Fan shrugged slightly, his expression indifferent. "But there's one thing you should know: I detest people who gossip the most. If you truly wish to save your master, you can go and plead with Princess Beimei. She might be able to help you!"
"How can I, with my status, possibly plead with Princess Beimei!" Han Feixue shook her head. "Moreover, Princess Beimei harbors hostility towards our Taiyan Sect. This matter is likely not that simple!"
Faced with these words, Lu Fan's brow furrowed slightly. According to Han Feixue's words, it was indeed the case, which made him somewhat troubled.
"Perhaps you should help him!" Ling'er said. "He looks quite pitiful. It wouldn't be right not to help him!"
"This matter is no trivial affair, involving the royal family. If we interfere rashly, it might cause inconvenience!" Lu Fan shook his head, his expression growing more somber.
Meanwhile, Ling'er frowned. With things having reached this point, Lu Fan still refused to help, which made her feel a bit helpless.
"Please, please help me!" Han Feixue immediately knelt down, her eyes filled with solemnity. The reason she acted this way was naturally to save her master, otherwise, she wouldn't have reached this point.
"Enough, enough, please get up first!" Lu Fan said somewhat helplessly. He hadn't intended to get involved, but Han Feixue had gone this far. If he remained heartless, it would be difficult to justify, and it might even incur criticism.
"Thank you, thank you!" Han Feixue clasped her fists, her eyes filled with gratitude. If her master could be rescued, it would naturally be the best outcome, as this was no small matter.
"You come with me to see Princess Beimei!" Lu Fan said. "I will speak on your behalf then. As long as Princess Beimei opens her mouth, this matter will be nine times out of ten settled. I have no connection with the royal family, and even if I were to intervene, it would be of no use!"
Han Feixue nodded slightly, feeling a sense of helplessness in her heart. She naturally understood this point.
