With Su Fan's agreement, Alice waved her hand, and an ice platform instantly formed beneath Bright, lifting him into the air.
He vanished into the sky with a whoosh.
Su Fan breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, facing a powerhouse like Alice made him feel utterly insecure.
Now, facing Bright alone, he still had confidence he could escape. But Alice…
Su Fan shook his head. They were simply not on the same level.
He estimated that even Lin Yao wouldn't be confident against Alice.
Su Fan looked at Lin Yao.
"How is it? Can you win?"
Su Fan asked Lin Yao, seeking confirmation.
Lin Yao shook her head decisively.
"I can't win. I would definitely lose."
This was entirely within Su Fan's expectations.
"Let's go. I doubt Bright will come to China again."
Su Fan still trusted Alice. Otherwise, why would someone with such strength give them a guarantee?
After Su Fan and Lin Yao left, the hidden experts nearby also disappeared.
Su Fan returned to the Martial Alliance and was surprised to find Wuyun, who had been missing for a long time, had reappeared.
"Wuyun, it's been so long, where have you been?"
Su Fan asked Wuyun curiously.
"I went into the mountains to train. It's only been a while, and the Martial Alliance has already developed this much!"
Wuyun was also somewhat astonished. In such a short time, the Martial Alliance had grown so much, cultivating numerous experts, with martial artists connected to the alliance spread across the country. It was truly staggering.
"Training?"
Su Fan sized up Wuyun.
"Not bad, you've reached the Kaiyang realm."
Su Fan noticed that Wuyun had also entered the Kaiyang realm, his strength having significantly improved.
"Of course. Who do you think I am? Back then, with my hands in my pockets, I didn't know what a 'rival' was!"
Wuyun said proudly, tilting his head back.
"Now that you've met me, with your hands in front of you, you're as obedient as a puppy."
Su Fan mercilessly continued Wuyun's sentence to put him down.
Wuyun: …
Can't you not bring up sad memories? That's very impolite.
"What happened to you two?"
Wuyun suddenly noticed traces of a fight on them and asked curiously.
"Oh, nothing. Don't mind it."
Su Fan felt there was no need to explain to Wuyun and told him not to dwell on it.
Wuyun nodded and didn't ask further.
"There's something I want to tell you."
Wuyun said solemnly to Su Fan.
"What is it?"
Su Fan was a little curious about what Wuyun could possibly have to say.
Wuyun seemed to be quite mysterious, leading Su Fan to a secluded spot before speaking.
"Do you remember the Long family?"
Wuyun asked Su Fan with a grave expression.
Su Fan naturally remembered. He had even killed a Long Chuan before.
"What's wrong?"
Su Fan frowned. Wuyun wouldn't bring up the Long family without reason.
"During my trial, I encountered someone from the Long family again."
Wuyun was very serious, believing this matter was important to Su Fan.
"Oh."
Su Fan's reaction left Wuyun speechless.
"Aren't you worried?"
Wuyun asked curiously.
"Worried about what? If I wasn't unsure about how many experts the Long family has, I might have already gone to attack them."
Su Fan was telling the truth. He had wanted to destroy the Long family for a long time but had never dared to act rashly due to uncertainty about their strength.
Long Chuan's appearance last time had caused Su Fan to indefinitely postpone this matter. The Long family had a Heavenly realm expert, and Su Fan was no match for them now.
"You're amazing. Since you're so confident, then forget it."
Seeing that Su Fan wasn't worried at all, Wuyun no longer bothered to inquire.
"Don't! Tell me, how did you encounter someone from the Long family?"
Although Su Fan wasn't worried about the Long family, he was quite curious about how Wuyun had encountered them. Didn't they say only one person from the Long family appeared in each generation?
How many had appeared now?
"Heh."
Wuyun revealed a mocking expression without any pretense.
He knew Su Fan was just putting on a brave front.
"During my trial, I traversed dozens of mountain ranges, venturing deep into the wilderness, fighting beasts and dancing with death, all to find an opportunity for breakthrough between life and death. It was in the Tianshan mountain range that I encountered someone from the Long family."
Wuyun walked to the window and slowly recounted his experience to Su Fan.
"It was at the foot of a mountain. I was being chased by a fierce tiger. He suddenly appeared and slew the tiger, saving me."
"He? Someone from the Long family?"
Su Fan asked, confused.
Wuyun nodded slightly.
"That's right. After that, I experienced many life-and-death situations with this Long family member. He was very strong and had many tricks up his sleeve. He gave me the feeling that he was just like you, perhaps even stronger than you."
Wuyun looked at Su Fan and said seriously.
"Then what? Where did he go later?"
Su Fan's curiosity was piqued by Wuyun's words, and he pressed further.
"Later, I broke through. When the trial ended and it was time to leave the mountains, he didn't come out with me. He said he wasn't suited for the outside world and went alone into the depths of the mountains."
"It seems this Long family member is also an environmentalist who loves nature."
Su Fan clicked his tongue and said.
"Since he didn't come out, what do I have to worry about?"
Su Fan said with a smile.
Wuyun suddenly turned to look at Su Fan.
"He also said that he knew someone who had killed many members of the Long family, and that he would come out for revenge in the near future."
Wuyun knew exactly who this statement was directed at, and Su Fan understood as well.
The other party knew about Su Fan and intended to seek revenge, but for some reason, he couldn't come out to find Su Fan yet. However, that didn't mean he would never come looking for Su Fan.
"Did he say anything else?"
Su Fan frowned. Couldn't Wuyun just finish his story in one go? He always paused dramatically.
"No, that's all."
Wuyun spread his hands.
"Then it's nothing. When he comes to find me, perhaps I'll be strong enough to destroy the Long family."
Su Fan said with a smile.
He was already very close to breaking through to the Heavenly realm. Perhaps in half a month, or a month, Su Fan would break through, or maybe even sooner. Su Fan couldn't be sure.
"As long as you're not worried, I don't care."
Seeing that Su Fan wasn't worried at all, Wuyun felt he had been overthinking. If Su Fan himself wasn't worried, why should he be?
"By the way, what was his name?"
Su Fan asked curiously.
He had listened to Wuyun's entire account but hadn't heard the other person's name.
"He said his name was Long Jianye. He's probably Long Jianchuan's brother. He's quite young."
Wuyun replied.
Su Fan nodded, then suddenly froze.
"What did you say?"
"Long Jianye. Is there a problem?"
Wuyun looked at Su Fan, puzzled.
"Long Jianye? Long Jianye!"
Su Fan was suddenly shocked.
Wasn't Long Jianye from the game world? Or were they just coincidentally named the same?
"What does he look like?"
Su Fan asked Wuyun with a frown.
"He looks… very handsome. No, he's more beautiful than a woman. A man who looks better than a woman, I don't know how that's possible."
Wuyun said somewhat speechlessly.
Mentioning Long Jianye's appearance made him want to complain.
"What!"
