Chapter 494

On this side, Lin Fan again ordered the Xuan Yuan family's guest officials to drag the corpses of Xuan Yuan Dapan and Xuan Yuan Jingxuan away to feed the dogs.

"What are you chatting about?"

Lin Fan walked to Xu Fengnian's group with Yan Lingji and Xuan Yuan Qingfeng and asked.

"I lost the bet with Senior, and Qingniao somehow took a fancy to you. Senior asked me to fulfill her wish, and I've already agreed!"

Xu Fengnian said listlessly.

If he said he wasn't disappointed, that would be impossible. First, his childhood sweetheart Jiang Ni, and then Qingniao, who had been with him every day—they had all fallen in love with Lin Fan without him knowing. Was he, the Northern Liang Heir Apparent, really that lacking in status? Why did they have to look for something far away instead of what was close?

"Oh? I do indeed have an interest in this girl Qingniao. I must thank the Heir Apparent for fulfilling this. This peerless divine art is gifted to you as a token of my appreciation!"

Lin Fan was somewhat surprised. What was this situation? Sitting at home, happiness comes from the sky? Inexplicably gaining Qingniao?

To express his gratitude, Lin Fan took out the peerless divine art he had treasured for a long time and gave it to Xu Fengnian.

"How can I accept this? You're too polite!"

Xu Fengnian said he didn't want it, but he reached out and took it extremely quickly. This was a cultivation method treasured by an Earth Immortal—how could it be bad?

"Sunflower Manual?"

Xu Fengnian looked at the secret manual in his hand and examined it thoughtfully.

"Open it and take a look!"

Li Chungang also became interested and urged Xu Fengnian.

Qingniao and the others also crowded around, wanting to get a glimpse of the Earth Immortal's treasure.

"To practice this art, one must first castrate oneself!"

Opening the cover, the first thing Xu Fengnian saw on the title page made his hand shake, and he almost threw the book away.

Immediately after, everyone looked at Lin Fan with strange eyes.

"What are you looking at? I already said it was a treasure. If I had practiced it, it wouldn't be called a treasure!"

Lin Fan rolled his eyes. What kind of looks were these people giving him? He was practicing the supreme immortal sutra, the 'Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon'; even satisfying three thousand women wouldn't be a problem.

"So you gave this kind of treasure to the heir of Northern Liang? Lin Fan, why do I feel like you're returning kindness with enmity!"

Li Chungang also couldn't help but stand up for Xu Fengnian.

"Hey, everything has two sides. This divine art secret manual is quite useful to me!"

Xu Fengnian had already finished reading this 'Sunflower Manual' and felt that this martial art still had its merits.

"Brat, isn't it just that Jiang Ni is infatuated with Lin Fan, and Qingniao also admires Lin Fan? Is it necessary to see through the red dust and cut off the root of trouble?"

Li Chungang didn't know if he was comforting him or poking at Xu Fengnian's heart.

"Stop messing around. Although I can't practice it, I can let my loyal subordinates practice it. The Northern Liang Prince's Mansion has never lacked dead soldiers. With this, we can cultivate a large number of Innate and Grandmaster combat forces. This is very rare!"

Xu Fengnian solemnly tucked the 'Sunflower Manual' into his bosom. He had finally gained something; it wasn't a total loss.

"I want to establish diplomatic relations with the Xuan Yuan family of Huishan. I wonder who is in charge of the Xuan Yuan family now."

Afterward, Xu Fengnian talked about business. He had come to Huishan for this, and as a result, Jiang Ni and Qingniao had both been lost. He had to achieve his goal.

"The Xuan Yuan family is now in charge of by my father, Xuan Yuan Jingcheng!"

Xuan Yuan Qingfeng answered Xu Fengnian's words, and the other Xuan Yuan family guest officials dared not speak.

Although Xuan Yuan Jingcheng hadn't revealed his strength yet, everyone looked down on him in their hearts, but who told him to have a good daughter and an even better son-in-law?

This was a son-in-law who could kill an Earth Immortal. Who dared to have an opinion? Did they not want to live?

"If the Heir Apparent thinks highly of the Xuan Yuan family, the Xuan Yuan family will naturally accept it gladly."

On the surface, the Xuan Yuan family had lost Xuan Yuan Dapan, Xuan Yuan Jingxuan, and Xuan Yuan Jingyi, and their strength was greatly damaged. Xuan Yuan Jingcheng didn't want to expose his strength, and Lin Fan couldn't keep looking after the Xuan Yuan family forever, so the Xuan Yuan family finding an ally was imminent. Since the Northern Liang Heir Apparent had come knocking, they would just go with the flow and accept it.

On the other side, the little Daoist boy also returned to Long Hushan and began to recount what he had seen and heard in the Xuan Yuan family.

"What did you say? Xuan Yuan Dapan was taken down, his cultivation abolished, and he was drugged to dual cultivate with Xuan Yuan Jingxuan? Who on earth attacked the Xuan Yuan family to have such profound martial arts and a cold heart?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Danping was dumbfounded. Who on earth was this mysterious expert!

"He is Young Master Tianji Lin Fan, and he also said…"

The little Daoist boy was somewhat hesitant, not knowing whether he should say Lin Fan's words.

"Said what? Speak quickly!"

Zhao Danping keenly sensed the Daoist boy's hesitation and pursued the question.

"He said: 'Zhao Danping, although one of the four Celestial Masters of Long Hushan, is a worldly person with impure roots, yet he dares to send people to spy on me. Take this piece of paper and give it to Zhao Danping when you go back!'"

The little Daoist boy hurriedly said Lin Fan's original words. He was in a very difficult position; he couldn't afford to offend Lin Fan, and he didn't dare to offend Zhao Danping either.

"Where is the paper? Take it out!"

Zhao Danping was furious at Lin Fan's words. Hearing there was a piece of paper, he hurriedly urged the Daoist boy to hand over the paper Lin Fan had asked him to bring. He wanted to see what Lin Fan had written.

"It's this blank piece of paper!"

The little Daoist boy took out the blank paper and handed it to Zhao Danping. The other three Celestial Masters were also somewhat surprised. What was the point of sending a blank piece of paper? What kind of riddle was Lin Fan playing?

"Ah!"

The moment Zhao Danping touched the blank paper, it instantly vanished, and infinite sword qi bloomed, instantly slicing his arm into a bloody mess.

And the sword qi didn't disappear; instead, it expanded, soon enveloping the entire main hall.

"Attack together!"

The other three Celestial Masters of Long Hushan also hurriedly acted to help, jointly countering Lin Fan's sword qi.

But even the four Celestial Masters combined were no match for this cluster of sword qi. Just as the Long Hushan main hall was about to be shredded by the sword qi, a child suddenly acted to help suppress the sword qi. He was the old ancestor of Long Hushan who had returned to his youth, Zhao Xuansu. A long-bearded old man holding a fishing rod also abruptly appeared in the main hall. His name was Zhao Huangchao, and seeing the sword qi raging, he couldn't help but act to help.

The sword qi was suppressed from multiple sides and instantly exploded.

"Retreat!"

Zhao Xuansu and Zhao Huangchao each grabbed two Celestial Masters and retreated. The entire Long Hushan main hall was instantly destroyed, and one of Zhao Danping's arms was also shredded by the sword qi. This time, Long Hushan could be considered to have suffered heavy losses.

"What on earth did you do to anger heaven and resent people to provoke such an expert? I'm afraid he's not far from shattering the void!"

Zhao Xuansu was exhausted and had almost been injured. It was just a cluster of sword qi; he truly couldn't imagine if the owner of the sword qi appeared before him, could he kill him with one sword?

"It was Young Master Tianji Lin Fan who did it. As for the reason, I don't know either. He said that although I am one of the four Celestial Masters, I am a worldly person with impure roots, and I dared to send people to spy on him. He sent me a blank piece of paper, and the moment I touched it, it vanished and turned into that cluster of sword qi."

Zhao Danping also felt very aggrieved. He didn't know how he had offended Lin Fan, for Lin Fan to treat him like this.
