The bald old grandmaster surveyed the crowd and said, "You are all prominent figures in the martial arts world. Now, I offer you a chance: take your own lives!"
Upon hearing this, the assembled individuals inwardly cursed. Before anything had even happened, they were being ordered to commit suicide? What a pipe dream! Damn it, they were all grandmasters, not fools who would slit their own throats at someone's mere word! If anyone was to be killed, it should be someone else!
"Old geezer, I think you're the one dreaming!"
"Exactly!"
"What the hell?"
"Before anything's even happened, you want us to slit our own throats?"
"Are you kidding me?"
When the grandmasters felt displeased, their words became like machine-gun fire, spitting out one barrage after another. If words could kill, these old men before them would have died without a burial place!
Chen Fan let out a cold snort, "We're all going to die one way or another. What do you think should be done?"
"That's your problem!" the bald grandmaster spat disdainfully.
Chen Fan's expression remained impassive as he coldly added, "Then listen carefully. I will ascend Kunlong Island today!"
"Those who block me, die…"
It had to be said, Chen Fan was radiating authority, his power fully unleashed! Hearing this, the old grandmasters were all stirred up within their hearts! Chen Fan's presence was truly glorious! Following Chen Fan was a great honor! Indeed… With Chen Fan stepping forward, they had all united like a solid iron plate.
The elder with the cane, seeing this, spoke solemnly, "Why must you enter the island?"
"To find someone!" Chen Fan replied.
Find someone? The elder with the cane and the bald elder exchanged glances, a hint of confusion in their eyes.
"Find whom?"
"An old man…" Chen Fan began, describing Elder Hua's appearance, "That's who I'm looking for!"
"Don't tell me he hasn't been here!"
At this moment, Chen Fan's gaze was intensely aggressive. After hearing Chen Fan's description, the two elders visibly flinched. A layer of solemnity appeared on their aged faces. After a moment of hesitation, one of them asked, "What is your relation to him?"
"Disciple!" Chen Fan uttered these two words.
Disciple?! So he was his disciple, no wonder he possessed such strength at such a young age! The two elders before them clearly remembered Elder Hua! The moment he landed on the island, he had sent them flying with a single palm strike, rendering them immobile! Of course, if Elder Hua had wanted to kill them, it would have been a simple matter! However, Elder Hua had spared them, a kindness they still felt grateful for to this day! After a moment of deliberation, they finally spoke, "So it is you!"
"Your master did indeed come here."
The grandmasters around were all shaken by this revelation. Wasn't Kunlong Island supposed to be terrifying? How could someone dare to come here? This…
Upon hearing this, Chen Fan grew excited. "Quick, tell me, where is he?"
The two elders hesitated for a moment before replying, "He left long ago."
Chen Fan's expression shifted subtly. "Did he say where he was going?"
The two elders shook their heads. "He didn't say…"
"He comes and goes like the wind!"
Chen Fan stared intently at the two, "Are you certain you are telling the truth?"
Instantly, Chen Fan's aura changed, exuding a terrifying presence! The two elders exchanged glances and nodded. "We… we can confirm that it's the truth!"
"That's right…"
Chen Fan did not believe them.
