Lu Fan found Li Jingjing running towards the back mountain, and he was quite worried. Although the man in black was clearly injured, he was still a powerful expert. However, the opponent was too cunning, trapping him with a formation, making it difficult to break free.
Furthermore, this group of people was clearly well-prepared, wearing special clothes, making it impossible even for the Heavenly Silkworm Gu worms to find an opportunity to strike.
Yan family's Breath Concealment Art? In his desperation, Lu Fan suddenly thought of the Yan family's Breath Concealment Art. The scruffy old Daoist had taught him the Falling Blossoms Swordplay, and combining it with the Yan family's Breath Concealment Art was his only option now.
*Swish...* Lu Fan's aura vanished instantly, and the Falling Blossoms Sword in his hand also lost its luster.
"Kill him..." The leader in black seemed to sense an opportunity and immediately shouted.
*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...* The dozen or so people immediately intensified their attacks, their long whips and short swords flying up and down, descending upon Lu Fan like a tidal wave.
However, under the onslaught of the dozen or so people, the sword in Lu Fan's hand suddenly became peculiar. His entire body and sword weaved through the dozens of sharp blades, showing no signs of aggression, yet the opponents' weapons could not inflict any harm on him. It was as if all their fierce attacks were being deflected by him.
"How can this be?" The leader in black frowned. Continuing like this would be futile, and it wouldn't be good in the long run. And that idiot couldn't even capture a little girl, it was infuriating!
An opportunity arose. Taking advantage of the other person's distraction, Lu Fan's heart stirred, and the Falling Blossoms Sword in his hand instantly burst forth with a beam of light, stabbing fiercely towards the leader.
*Pfft...!* The man in black, sensing danger, tried to dodge urgently but it was too late. Although he avoided a fatal blow, his shoulder was pierced by the sword energy.
Those who had been standing far away, thinking there was no danger, never expected Lu Fan's sword to unleash sword energy! That was something only Qi Realm experts could achieve!
"Retreat... Quick, retreat!" The man in black leaped away.
The others dared not linger and fled in all directions.
*Whoosh...* Lu Fan let out a long sigh. That sword had consumed most of his internal energy, making it impossible for him to unleash a second strike, so he could only watch them escape. Without hesitation, he beckoned, recalling the Heavenly Silkworm Gu worms, and rushed towards the back mountain, unsure of Li Jingjing's condition.
*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...* A dark figure, accompanied by a gust of wind, shot down from the back mountain under the moonlight.
"Jingjing!" Lu Fan's face lit up with joy. He saw Li Jingjing galloping down from the mountain, riding on Second Senior Sister.
"Brother Fan!" Li Jingjing immediately called out upon hearing Lu Fan's voice. *Whoosh...* Second Senior Sister stopped in front of Lu Fan.
"Jingjing! Are you alright?" Lu Fan asked anxiously.
"Brother Fan! Second Senior Sister saved me and even killed that guy. Look, this is the demonic blade and the long whip that guy was carrying," Li Jingjing said, holding up the demonic blade and long whip with excitement.
"Second Senior Sister! Well done!" Lu Fan willed it, taking out two peaches and an apple, and offered them to Second Senior Sister's mouth.
*Hmph, hmph...* Second Senior Sister grunted twice, swallowed the peaches and apples, and then rubbed her head against Lu Fan.
It was then that Lu Fan realized Second Senior Sister was pregnant again.
"Brother Fan! Second Senior Sister is their queen now! Dozens of wild boars listen to her. She's so majestic!" Li Jingjing said excitedly.
"Second Senior Sister, you're amazing! Go to the pine forest every day from now on, and I'll leave mushrooms and fruits there for you," Lu Fan said, patting Second Senior Sister's head.
*Hmph, hmph, hmph...* Second Senior Sister clearly understood Lu Fan's words, grunted a few times, and rubbed her head against Lu Fan's leg.
After watching Second Senior Sister return to the mountains, Lu Fan and Li Jingjing went back home. Upon entering the house, both were startled to see the scruffy old Daoist sleeping soundly on the sofa, drooling.
"Old fellow! Do you believe I want to beat you up right now!" Lu Fan shouted in anger.
This old fellow didn't show up during the fight, and now he's out after it's over. He even has the mood to sleep? And sleeping so shamelessly!
"Kid! You went out to chase girls, and you won't let me sleep! You ungrateful wretch! I guarded the construction site for most of the night, and I'm exhausted," the scruffy old Daoist said, turning over.
"Old fellow! Don't tell me you didn't know the people from the Divine Calculation Sect and I were fighting for half the night!" Lu Fan said indignantly.
"I also know you've entered the Qi Realm in the process! Without this battle, how could you have improved so quickly! You brat, don't be ungrateful!" The scruffy old Daoist said, flipping over and getting up.
"What the heck... You know this?" Lu Fan swallowed a mouthful of saliva. With his observational skills, he hadn't even noticed this old fellow nearby. Could it be that this old fellow really calculated it?
"I didn't show myself because I couldn't kill them even if I did. They came prepared, and it's not that easy to kill them all. By the way, get ready. I, Daoist Master, have calculated that the person who set up the Mother-Child Seven Fiends Formation will come to set up the fourth fiend tomorrow night. It's a good opportunity for us to eliminate him. Get ready, don't miss it!" After speaking, the scruffy old Daoist stood up and walked out.
"Hey! Old fellow, where are you going?" Lu Fan asked urgently.
"Why should I stay here and watch you two being all lovey-dovey? Hmph! Young people nowadays have no respect for elders. Don't you understand what it means to be a full man who doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man?" The scruffy old Daoist said and strode away.
"Damn it... What do you mean by a full man who doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man? You old fellow, your heart isn't as old as your body!" Lu Fan stared at the departing scruffy old Daoist, then suddenly turned to find Li Jingjing still holding his arm, not letting go. Her large, watery eyes were looking at him playfully.
"You... What do you want?" Lu Fan hurriedly tried to pull his arm away. Doesn't this girl know that this... this... this way is also quite good!
"Brother Fan! I want to learn swordplay from you! Will you teach me?" Li Jingjing said charmingly.
"Aren't you and Sister-in-law Wang Yan already learning? I'm teaching you too!" Lu Fan said in surprise.
"I want to learn the swordplay you just used. That swordplay is so powerful!" Li Jingjing said excitedly.
"Silly girl! Actually, your boxing and Flowing Cloud Swordplay are also very powerful. You just haven't brought them out. Alright! When you finish practicing the Flowing Cloud Swordplay, I'll teach you the Falling Blossoms Swordplay. By the way, where is my dagger?" Lu Fan stretched out his hand.
"That dagger... can you give it to me? Brother Fan, I like it so much!" Li Jingjing said coquettishly.
"No!" Lu Fan rolled his eyes. That was something even more powerful than the Falling Blossoms Sword, and its value was immeasurable. How could he give it away so easily!
