"Who are you, to possess such prowess at such a young age!" Chu Qingqing looked at Lu Fan, her words filled with inquiry. After all, the strength Lu Fan had displayed far surpassed her imagination.
"I am no ordinary person. You lost, and you can't blame me for that!"
Lu Fan shrugged slightly. "This is your own problem!"
Chu Qingqing stood dumbfounded, a surge of anger within her, yet nowhere to direct it. She could only stare silently at Lu Fan.
The events of today had profoundly impacted him. He, who was recognized as an unparalleled genius, had now been defeated by Lu Fan. How could he accept this?
"You needn't be too discouraged. It's normal that you're no match for my master, as my master is no ordinary individual!"
Gui Ying said with a smile, "My master is hailed as the foremost person in the Eastern Region. Among the younger generation in the Eastern Region, no one is his opponent!"
Chu Qingqing looked at these words with suspicion, even doubting Gui Ying's claims. If what he said were true, it was truly astonishing.
"No need to say more. He has already lost, anyway."
Lu Fan shrugged slightly, then left with Gui Ying, appearing more unrestrained and carefree than ever.
Witnessing this scene, Chu Qingqing stood frozen, utterly bewildered. Yes, he had lost, and lost completely. He even felt a sense of unwillingness, but no matter what, he had lost.
As he watched Lu Fan's departing figure, he felt helpless, wanting to do something but ultimately unable to. A hint of displeasure lingered in his heart.
However, at this very moment, not far from Liuli City, an explosion suddenly erupted. This explosion instantly drew everyone's attention, leaving them in shock, wondering what had happened to cause such a tremendous blast.
Even Chu Qingqing looked towards it. Having been in Liuli City for so long, she had never witnessed such a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation, which piqued her curiosity.
"The site of the explosion over there has such terrifying spiritual energy. Could something have happened!"
Hu Yu asked curiously, expressing her bewilderment.
"It's possible some mechanisms were triggered, or perhaps there are ancient ruins!"
Hu Xian'er's expression turned serious. "I've heard that the Central Continent has numerous ancient ruins. Once discovered, they might even yield peerless divine weapons!"
"Peerless divine weapons!"
Hu Yu was taken aback, her heart filled with shock. She hadn't expected that such things as ancient ruins could exist within the Central Continent. If there were indeed peerless divine weapons, it would be a significant temptation for them.
Meanwhile, within Liuli City, figures began moving towards the distance, everyone rushing forward without any hesitation.
They all knew that this situation likely indicated ancient ruins. If that were the case, they were determined to seize them. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Concurrently, inside the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, Huo Dong gazed out towards the outskirts of Liuli City, a faint cold glint in his eyes. "Everyone, ancient ruins have appeared. Shall we go and seize them? This is a golden opportunity!"
"Since the young master has spoken, we naturally must try!"
The people in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion shouted in unison, joy evident in their eyes. They hadn't expected such good fortune so soon after arriving in Liuli City. After all, they were well aware that ancient ruins were no ordinary matter. If they could obtain them, it would undoubtedly bring them great fortune.
Huo Dong smiled, his figure transforming into an afterimage as he headed north of Liuli City. The many experts from the Drunken Immortal Pavilion followed suit without any delay. This was a prime opportunity, and they wouldn't let it slip away easily.
At the same time, Lu Fan's figure also came to a halt. He looked forward, his heart filled with shock. He could clearly sense powerful spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from the direction of the ruins ahead.
"Such powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, there must be many good things!"
Gui Ying exclaimed repeatedly. "Shall we go and take a look?"
"I was thinking the same thing!"
Lu Fan nodded. "But how could it be such a coincidence? It's rather surprising that we encountered ancient ruins not long after arriving in Liuli City!"
"Who can say for sure!" Gui Ying smiled slightly. "But this is a rare opportunity. If we miss it, it will be a great loss!"
After a while, numerous figures arrived above the ruins. They found that within the ruins, spiritual energy surged and flowed endlessly. Yet, for some reason, the ruins themselves were impossible to see directly, as if obscured by something, causing bewilderment.
"What exactly is inside these ruins? Why does it feel like something is blocking it!"
Hu Yu looked on, her heart filled with astonishment. After all, if they were truly ancient ruins, it shouldn't be like this.
"Perhaps it's not something ordinary!"
Hu Xian'er frowned, her gaze turning solemn. "However, we must still be cautious, as this is not the Eastern Region. If anything happens, it won't benefit us!"
"My elder sister speaks wisely!"
Hu Yu nodded slightly, her expression becoming serious. She naturally agreed with Hu Xian'er's words, as some matters were not as simple as they appeared.
Meanwhile, Huo Dong and his group also arrived at this location, appearing in great numbers. These were all people who had come to the Drunken Immortal Pavilion.
"I never imagined, truly never imagined, that there would be peerless ancient ruins not far from Liuli City!"
Huo Dong laughed heartily. "Legend has it that ancient ruins contain peerless divine weapons. If that's the case, whoever obtains them will possess infinite power!"
"Peerless divine weapons!"
Many people present were stunned, their eyes filled with seriousness. If there were truly peerless divine weapons, they would not miss this opportunity. After all, peerless divine weapons were not ordinary items; obtaining them would undoubtedly signify a new beginning for them.
"Don't act rashly. I believe these ancient ruins are not simple!"
Lu Fan looked at Gui Ying, his eyes becoming grave.
"Master, could you be mistaken? This place is filled with spiritual energy. How could there be a problem!"
Gui Ying asked, puzzled, and spoke repeatedly, filled with curiosity.
"There are some things you don't understand. These ruins are likely not simple!"
Lu Fan shook his head, his gaze turning cold. Huo Dong's sudden appearance here made him feel quite perplexed.
As everyone conversed, the spiritual energy within the ruins surged again, appearing turbulent and powerful.
