Chen Xing'er narrowed her eyes and said coldly, "I will call for help!"
Xu Donglai said proudly, "That's exactly what we want him to do!"
Before Chen Fan's car even reached Xiangshan Tanfu, he received a call from Chen Xing'er.
"What is it?"
Chen Fan asked casually.
"I've been kidnapped by Xu Donglai, you need to call for help for me..."
Chen Xing'er's voice rang out.
Chen Fan's pupils contracted violently, and a killing intent erupted from him like a streak of lightning.
To dare to lay a hand on his sister, this was simply courting death!
"Chen Fan, bring the Dragon Patterned Luopan and come to Yishui Mountain Villa!"
As he was thinking, Xu Donglai's voice came through the receiver.
"I don't want to harm Miss Chen. You have one hour. Bring the Dragon Patterned Luopan for the exchange. If anything happens to Miss Chen after this time, it will be your fault!"
Chen Fan asked coldly, "How do you know I will come?"
"Since Miss Chen gave you the Dragon Patterned Luopan, it's clear you have a deep relationship."
Xu Donglai said, "Besides Miss Chen, you have other weaknesses. I disdain to use them, but if you force me to resort to such methods, then I will reluctantly oblige!"
"I will be there within an hour!" Chen Fan said in a deep voice.
"You have guts!"
With a beep, the call was hung up.
Chen Fan put down his phone and picked up his communicator to call the Oracle.
"Chen Xing'er is being held by the Xu family at Yishui Mountain Villa. You, Titan, and Magician, depart immediately!" Chen Fan ordered. "Mei Ji and Shadow will stay behind to guard the house. Once you arrive, you will operate on the outer perimeter according to the situation."
"Yes, my King!"
Chen Fan turned the car around, turned on the navigation, and headed for Yishui Mountain Villa.
He continuously overtook other vehicles, his speed soaring to two hundred.
He knew Xu Donglai wouldn't dare to harm Chen Xing'er easily, but he still had to go.
If he had known this would happen, he should have killed Xu Donglai with a single punch at the martial arts hall. Then this situation wouldn't have occurred.
However, Xu Donglai had only challenged him to a fight back then, and his actions weren't overly egregious. Chen Fan had crippled Xu Xicheng as a form of punishment and warning.
After all, he wasn't a bloodthirsty person. While he didn't fear a centuries-old clan like the Xu family, he also didn't want to provoke too much trouble.
Yet, the outcome had led to this.
If Chen Xing'er suffered even the slightest harm, he wouldn't hesitate to slaughter the Xu family of Xiling!
As he thought of this, the chill emanating from him grew stronger, causing the temperature inside the car to plummet.
Driving at full speed, at the fork in the road leading to Yishui Mountain Villa, there were even people directing traffic.
In just over half an hour, he arrived at the entrance of Yishui Mountain Villa.
This mountain villa was nestled beside mountains and water, with excellent feng shui, surrounded by planted pines and cypresses.
It was also an excellent place for a burial!
Seeing the Xu family disciples standing at the gate, Chen Fan's gaze turned cold, and he pushed open the car door and got out.
"Mr. Chen, please!"
It was the same middle-aged man, his face calm and his demeanor experienced.
Seeing that Chen Fan had actually come alone, the man showed a trace of surprise.
Knowing the danger, he came alone, acting on mere bravado?
"Where is Miss Chen?"
Chen Fan asked coldly.
"She is within the villa. My young master is treating her as an honored guest and would not dare to slight her in the slightest!" the middle-aged man said politely. "Please follow me!"
Chen Fan glanced at the sternly standing Xu family disciples and strode into the villa.
After circling the screen wall and passing by the side of the three-story building, in the rear courtyard, there was a courtyard house with three rooms.
Under the eaves facing him, Chen Xing'er sat there, casually drinking tea.
The one making the tea was none other than Xu Donglai.
Glancing at Chen Fan, hatred flashed in Xu Donglai's eyes, along with excitement and anticipation.
Chen Fan walked over with large strides, but three Xu family disciples blocked his path.
Xu Donglai was clearly wary of his combat prowess and didn't want him to get close.
The saying goes, "A common man's rage spills five steps of blood." Xu Donglai dared not take such a risk.
"Chen Fan, I didn't expect you to come alone!" Xu Donglai shook his head, speaking with a hint of disdain. "It seems I overestimated you. You are ultimately just a commoner and no match for me!"
Chen Fan stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Xu Donglai, I, on the other hand, did not overestimate you. Using such despicable means, is this what you call a centuries-old clan?"
"Miss Chen is my guest. I merely feared she might not come willingly, so I employed a little trick."
"I said she would not be harmed in any way. Even if you didn't arrive within the stipulated time, I would not have hurt her."
Xu Donglai said slowly, not in a hurry, as if everything was under his control.
"Chen Fan, you shouldn't have come!" Chen Xing'er said. "Did you call for help?"
"There's no need to call for help!"
Chen Fan looked at Chen Xing'er and gave her a gentle smile.
Chen Xing'er frowned, her face showing concern.
"Hahaha, Chen Fan, do you think this is like last time?"
Xu Donglai laughed and said, "This time, you're dead for sure!"
"You said the same thing last time!"
Chen Fan seemed unbothered by the prolonged conversation.
Xu Donglai stood up and placed his hands behind his back, saying, "I told you, no one can refuse me!"
"As the heir of the Xu family of Xiling, since my birth, I have been adorned with countless honors. Whatever I desire, others cannot refuse."
"From the moment you refused me, your tragedy was already sealed!"
Chen Fan's expression was calm, and he couldn't be bothered to comment.
"In Xiling, there is a family that possesses a rare thousand-armed Guanyin statue carved from Hetian white jade. I wished to borrow it for a look, but the family was reluctant."
"Do you know what happened afterward? I merely passed a message, and the patriarch of that family came to my doorstep, knelt before me, and handed over the Guanyin statue with both hands!"
Xu Donglai said with a smile, his expression becoming increasingly arrogant.
"Underhanded tactics and forceful acquisition, a centuries-old clan, is merely a veneer of glorious reputation!"
Chen Fan said with disdain.
"You're still being stubborn even when death is at your doorstep!" Xu Donglai said coldly. "You won't be as lucky as that family patriarch!"
"Once, I also fell in love with a girl, very beautiful and pure. I wanted her to be my girlfriend. But she refused, saying she didn't want to date in high school."
"Three days later, her father lost his job and was kicked out of his home by the landlord. Her mother met with an accident and became a vegetative state!"
"This woman, who kept saying she didn't want to date, knelt before me and begged for my favor, just for me to give her money!"
"Only then did I realize that so-called purity was just an act. Can you guess what her ultimate fate was?"
Before Chen Fan could speak, Chen Xing'er spat and said, "So, Xu Donglai, do you want to brag about how much of a scumbag you are?"
Even Shi Wenyan was filled with indignation.
"Scumbag?"
Xu Donglai was not annoyed. He said, "Miss Chen, you and I are different. Although your family is a top-tier noble clan, you are subject to many constraints. You must consider this and that, weigh your options, and only then can you possess that ultimate power."
"But this kind of power cannot last for too long. When your status and position decline, the family's influence will also fall, and you will be replaced by other noble clans!"
"However, the Huazu is different. They occupy a territory. Although they haven't declared themselves kings, they are not far from it!"
Xu Donglai said with a smile, "The last girl jumped off a thirty-five-story building and ended her life!"
"Chen Fan, your fate will not be much better than hers!"
"In all my years of living, I have never suffered such a great loss. I have to thank you. This is a tempering for me. Only by killing you can I become stronger than ever before!"
"Pervert!"
Chen Xing'er gritted her teeth and cursed.
Xu Donglai acted as if he hadn't heard her and raised his hand.
The Xu family disciples all drew their guns and pointed them at Chen Fan.
"Kneel and beg for mercy, and I'll let you live a little longer!"
Xu Donglai said to Chen Fan with extreme arrogance.
Chen Fan smiled and said, "I guess you won't order them to attack right now!"
"Oh?" Xu Donglai asked. "Why?"
"It's simple, you haven't got the Dragon Patterned Luopan yet." Chen Fan said with a smile. "You're willing to pay ten billion for it. If you don't get it, you won't kill me, right?"
"No, no!" Xu Donglai said. "That item is indeed important, but to me, killing you is more important."
"It's not too late to find the Dragon Patterned Luopan after killing you!"
"However, the reason you are still alive is because Uncle Lou wants to kill you himself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, from an elegant quiet room, a person stepped out.
He stood as firm as a mountain, his imposing aura deep and solemn, exerting immense pressure.
The Xu family, Xu Xilou!
