"How could you go to a place like that!"
Long Die was very disappointed in Su Fan, never expecting him to be that kind of person!
"I... didn't you go too?"
Su Fan suddenly remembered that Long Die had also gone to the pleasure house.
"I was merely indulging in refined tastes, doing scholarly things. How is that the same as you?"
"I was also indulging in refined tastes and doing scholarly things. How is it different?"
Su Fan's eyes lit up, and he immediately found an excuse.
"You're just quibbling!"
Long Die said angrily.
"Alright, alright, I'll take you to eat something delicious, okay?"
Su Fan quickly changed the subject, knowing that continuing the conversation would lead to an explosion.
"Don't think you can buy me off!"
Long Die turned her head away, saying angrily.
"Yesterday, Xiao Yan and I went to a restaurant and had their signature dish. It was so fragrant! The crispy duck skin was so crunchy!"
Su Fan said, savoring the memory.
Long Die's mouth immediately watered.
"Which restaurant was it?"
Long Die couldn't resist any longer and asked Su Fan directly.
Su Fan smiled slightly.
With his understanding of Long Die from the game, how could Su Fan not handle her?
"Let's go, I'll take you."
Su Fan led the gluttonous Long Die back to the same restaurant where Xiao Yan and the others had eaten yesterday.
Su Fan silenced Long Die with a meal.
"Why did you leave the manor?"
After they had eaten their fill, Long Die asked Su Fan curiously.
"To participate in the Martial Arts Gathering. The manor's rules state that one must sever ties with the manor to participate."
Su Fan had nothing to hide and told Long Die directly.
"Don't mention my connection to Bai Yue Manor outside. It will bring trouble to the manor."
Su Fan cautioned Long Die.
"The Martial Arts Gathering is so dangerous. Why did you come?"
Long Die still held a grudge about Su Fan's sudden departure; he hadn't even told her.
"I have my own plans, so don't ask. Go back after eating. You are the Saintess, and it's not good to be out all the time."
Su Fan said to Long Die sincerely.
He just didn't want Long Die to bother him.
"It's none of your business! I can go wherever I want!"
Long Die said indignantly.
"Why don't you just fly to the sky?"
Su Fan said speechlessly.
"Do you know how to speak? I'm a lady!"
Long Die, unable to win the argument with Su Fan, said with a look of anger.
"I couldn't tell."
"You!"
Long Die was so angered by Su Fan that she lost her appetite.
"I'm not eating anymore!"
"Eat it or don't."
Su Fan didn't care whether Long Die ate or not; he had eaten his fill.
"You! Hmph!"
Long Die was so angry she didn't want to talk to Su Fan anymore.
"I'm going back to sleep. Bye."
Su Fan waved goodbye to Long Die.
Only after Su Fan had walked far away did Long Die realize something was wrong.
"Su Fan! You haven't paid yet!"
Hearing Long Die's voice, Su Fan immediately quickened his pace and left.
He had no money, so why would he wait?
"You scoundrel!"
Seeing Su Fan run away, Long Die was furious, her anger reaching its peak. Was this guy even a man!
Su Fan returned to reality.
The progress of the Martial Alliance was going smoothly, and the publicity was in place. Many martial artists were already coming to New City out of admiration.
Wu Yun suddenly called.
Su Fan answered with curiosity.
"Boss, my junior brothers and sisters are here and want to find a position in the Martial Alliance. Can you arrange something?"
Wu Yun asked cautiously.
"Of course, they are all our people. Just find Dongfang Tingyin."
There was nothing special about this that he needed to discuss; he could just go to Dongfang Tingyin.
"Got it."
With Su Fan's assurance, Wu Yun was completely relieved.
Behind him, a group of chattering young boys and girls looked at the buildings of the big city with wonder.
At the same time, Li Jun also arrived in New City with his clansmen.
Suddenly, the traffic in New City increased significantly, with many unfamiliar outsiders, all burly and strong. If one didn't know better, they might think it was a gym group outing.
The first floor of the Martial Alliance hall.
"Please queue up in the hall to register as a martial artist and pick up missions. For item exchange, please check the second floor."
The broadcast in the first-floor hall repeatedly played this announcement.
Since it was the first day of operation, it was a bit chaotic. There were many people, and the staff, who were working for the first time, were overwhelmed.
"What are you queuing for! Get lost!"
Where there are people, there is a Jianghu (martial world), and where there is a Jianghu, there are inevitably disputes, especially for a newly developing organization like the Martial Alliance.
A burly man with a fierce face and a scowl yelled at a martial artist at one of the windows.
The person dared not speak out. He was just a martial artist at the Yin Yuan realm, insignificant in such a place. He lacked the courage to resist and could only silently endure the injustice.
"Sir, please do not cause trouble here. Could you please queue up in an orderly manner?"
The Yin Yuan realm martial artist did not dare to resist, but someone stepped forward to defend him. A security guard from the Martial Alliance politely approached the burly man and advised him.
"I am a Yao Guang realm martial artist. Where am I not treated with preferential treatment? And here, in your small organization, I have to queue? Get your leader to come out!"
The burly man showed no regard for the Martial Alliance's reputation and was equally disrespectful to the security guard.
"Sir, please don't make things difficult for us."
The security guard remained very polite, primarily trying to persuade him.
"I will make things difficult for you. What can you do about it?"
The burly man shoved the security guard, speaking without any politeness.
"Report, report, someone is causing trouble downstairs. It's a Yao Guang realm martial artist."
The security guard took a deep breath and spoke into the walkie-talkie.
The surveillance room immediately received the security guard's report.
"Please wait, we will send someone down shortly."
The surveillance room then reported the incident to Dongfang Tingyin.
It was the first day of operation, and the core members, including Su Fan, Jiu Di, Li Jun, and Su Bei, were all present and took it very seriously.
"Yao Guang realm. Who will go down to handle it?"
Su Fan asked, looking at everyone.
Wu Yun and Li Jun exchanged glances.
"We'll go."
Both of them were at the peak of the Yao Guang realm. One person might encounter unexpected trouble, but two would be much safer.
"Alright, notify me if there are any problems."
Su Fan nodded. The two of them going was very suitable.
The two arrived on the first floor. The burly man was already pushing and shoving the security guards, on the verge of a fight.
"You think you're so tough? Reporting for duty, why hasn't anyone come to help you?"
The burly man said resentfully.
He shoved the security guard again, knocking him to the ground.
Due to time constraints, the current security guards were still ordinary people with some minor skills, just not very skilled martial artists, and naturally, they were no match for the opponent.
"Sir, if you have any opinions about our Martial Alliance, you can express them. There's no need to make things difficult for our employees."
Li Jun and Wu Yun walked over and said to him.
"Who do you think you are?"
The burly man looked at the two of them dismissively and asked.
"I am one of the responsible persons of the Martial Alliance. May I ask what your opinion is?" Li Jun said indifferently, looking at the other man.
In front of so many people, they couldn't just resort to violence; they had to prioritize resolving the issue.
