"Hmph, if it's someone I intend to protect, no one can touch him!"
Chen Banxian said coldly, "But now it seems you don't take my words seriously at all?"
"Senior, I am also bound by military orders!"
Xuanwu said with a wry smile, "He killed the Heir of the Eight Prince's Mansion, a heinous crime. How can the Eight Prince's Mansion let this go!"
"I've said it long ago, Bai Xi was not harmed by me!"
Lu Fan said directly, "The one who truly wanted to harm him was your eldest heir!"
"Do you think your words alone can make me believe you?" Xuanwu sneered.
"Whether you believe it or not is your business. Talking so much with you seems unnecessary. You are just a subordinate of the Eight Prince's Mansion!" Lu Fan shrugged.
Xuanwu frowned. Lu Fan's words did not seem like a lie.
"Whether he killed the Heir of the Prince's Mansion or not, he is my disciple now!"
Chen Banxian said coldly, "If you dare to trouble him, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Xuanwu's expression changed, and he revealed an even more bitter smile.
Being threatened by such a powerful expert had a significant impact on him.
"Kid, you can leave now!"
Chen Banxian said faintly, "He wouldn't dare to do anything to you!"
Lu Fan was stunned, a little vigilant, and at the same time, he rolled his eyes at Chen Banxian.
With Xuanwu here, if he left now, wouldn't that expose his whereabouts?
Seeing how serious Chen Banxian was, Lu Fan didn't say much more. His figure turned into a streak of light and he left the sword furnace.
Since Chen Banxian dared to let him go, he presumably wouldn't let Xuanwu attack him.
As soon as Lu Fan left, Xuanwu was about to pursue him, but a powerful sword qi struck him. Before he could react, his body exploded and flew backward, with blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
"I told you just now, don't touch him. It seems my words are not very effective!" Chen Banxian's expression was cold.
Xuanwu's expression changed, "Senior is indeed an extraordinary person. With that one strike, I am far behind."
"It's good that you know!"
Chen Banxian chuckled, "Now that you are seriously injured, I don't have to worry about you troubling that kid!"
After leaving the sword furnace, Lu Fan did not rush to Shenxian Valley but returned to Tianxian City.
Seeing that the Bai family was safe, he finally felt relieved.
Since the incident at Beihai Academy, Lu Fan had become much more vigilant and naturally did not want the Bai family to be implicated because of him.
After leaving Tianxian City, Lu Fan set off for Shenxian Valley. He dared not delay the matters Chen Banxian had entrusted to him.
This person not only saved his life but also possessed unfathomable strength. The sword furnace had become his safe haven.
Inside the Bai family in Tianxian City, Bai Xue had already woken up but was still confined to her room, with her spiritual power sealed.
"Brother, please let me out!"
Bai Xue pleaded, "I won't mess around. Besides, the people from the Eight Prince's Mansion have been gone for several days!"
"It's not that I don't want to let you out, it's that the old man won't allow it!"
Bai Yetian said with a wry smile, "The old man is like this because he wants you to understand that some things are beyond human control. The Bai family cannot afford to offend the Eight Prince's Mansion! Not at any time!"
"I want to see Grandpa!"
Bai Xue spoke again, becoming even more indignant. The moment Old Master Bai knocked her out that day, she had felt dissatisfied, and now she was being locked up.
"Grandpa said, if you want to see him, he won't see you!" Bai Yetian said directly, "You just stay put!"
"Brother, one cannot be without principles!"
Bai Xue frowned, "Last time, if it wasn't for Lu Fan's help, I would have been captured by Shenfeng Pavilion! Just for this, we cannot abandon him!"
"The Bai family cannot save someone the Eight Prince's Mansion wants to kill!"
Bai Yetian waved his hand, "The clansmen are already preparing their luggage. We will leave Tianxian City tonight!"
"Why?"
Bai Xue frowned, "Why don't I know about this?"
"The Young Pavilion Master of Shenfeng Pavilion died unnaturally. The Pavilion Master of Shenfeng Pavilion will not let this go!"
Bai Yetian said directly, "Now the Bai family can only leave, otherwise, there will be endless trouble!"
Bai Xue was slightly stunned but said no more. As Bai Yetian had said, the Bai family's situation was not good, and something could happen at any time.
After the Bai family members had finished preparing, Old Master Bai came to the door of the room, "Little Xue, don't blame your grandfather. If I hadn't knocked you out, the entire Bai family would have been in danger that night!"
"Grandpa, I know!"
Bai Xue nodded slightly, her expression solemn. Even if Old Master Bai didn't say it, she understood it completely.
"Everything is ready!"
Bai Yetian strode over, "Grandpa, when do we set off?"
"Let your sister out, and leave now!" Old Master Bai instructed, "Remember, don't make too much noise!"
Not long after, the Bai family members left the Bai Residence and headed towards the outskirts of Tianxian City.
The entire clan was relocating, which was a last resort. If they hadn't offended people they shouldn't have, Old Master Bai would never have done this.
Looking back at the gate of the Bai family, Old Master Bai's face was filled with emotion. He had spent most of his life in Tianxian City, and now he had to relocate, his heart was somewhat reluctant.
"Where are you Bai family members going?"
Just then, a cold voice sounded. At the city gate, a figure in white appeared, followed by many figures.
"Elder Ouyang!"
Bai Xue was startled, her eyes filled with panic. In Shenfeng Pavilion, Elder Ouyang's status was just below the Pavilion Master. Su Dan Novel Network
"The Bai family has quite the nerve to dare to lay hands on the Young Pavilion Master!"
Elder Ouyang said coldly, "The Pavilion Master sensed it in Shenfeng Pavilion. Does the Bai family owe an explanation now?"
"This senior, Shangguan Hai's death has nothing to do with our Bai family!" Bai Yetian said with a light smile, "There must be some misunderstanding!"
"Since it has nothing to do with the Bai family, then why are you fleeing in the middle of the night? Are you guilty?"
Another old man sneered, with a murderous intent.
"This..." Bai Yetian's face changed drastically. He didn't know how to answer.
"A mere Bai family dares to kill the Young Pavilion Master, truly audacious!"
Elder Ouyang said coldly, "For today's events, your Bai family has no defense!"
"If Shenfeng Pavilion truly believes this, my Bai family has nothing to say!"
The Head of the Bai family said directly, "The Young Pavilion Master was not killed by my Bai family. If my Bai family has any deception, I will die a horrible death!"
"Hmph, if the Bai family didn't do it, then who killed him?" Elder Ouyang said coldly.
"It's the person the Eight Prince's Mansion is hunting!"
The Head of the Bai family's expression was indifferent. Bai Xue was somewhat shocked, never expecting her grandfather to say such a thing.
"Lu Fan?"
Elder Ouyang frowned slightly and looked at the other elders.
Just as Old Master Bai had said, Lu Fan had indeed stayed in Tianxian City. This matter might not be fabricated.
"Senior, even if our Bai family had the courage, we wouldn't dare to kill the Young Pavilion Master!" Bai Yetian seized the opportunity.
"That's not necessarily true!"
Elder Ouyang narrowed his eyes, "If the Bai family wants to clear their name, I'm afraid the Head of the Bai family will have to accompany me to Shenfeng Pavilion to investigate thoroughly!"
