After Huo Dong left, the man in black turned and left, appearing even more nonchalant. Lu Fan had disrupted his plans, and he would not let Lu Fan off easily. Therefore, Lu Fan had to die; this was his rule.
Meanwhile, Lu Fan followed the man in black, a cold glint in his eyes. He hadn't expected such a transaction between the man in black and Huo Dong. However, it was fortunate; he would deal with the man in black first, and then confront Huo Dong.
From the shadows, Hu Xian'er and Hu Yu looked at each other, both somewhat surprised that Huo Dong was actually involved in this matter, which left them feeling a sense of shock.
"Sister, what do we do now?"
Hu Yu asked, "Haotian is chasing after the man in black. Won't he be in danger?"
"Don't worry, with his strength, he should be fine. Let's hurry back!" Hu Xian'er shook her head and said, "If Huo Dong finds out we've also left the Drunken Immortal Tower, he might become suspicious, which would be disadvantageous for us."
Hu Yu quickly nodded. They were from the Eastern Region and naturally did not want to stir up trouble. Offending Huo Dong rashly would be more detrimental than beneficial.
Not long after, they left the woods and returned to the Drunken Immortal Tower.
At the same time, Huo Dong also returned to the Drunken Immortal Tower. However, when he checked his room, he found that Lu Fan was not there, which made his expression turn slightly unpleasant.
"Not in their room at this late hour, where did those two go?"
Huo Dong questioned everyone, a faint cold glint in his eyes. After all, he was somewhat displeased with Lu Fan and the others.
Everyone shook their heads, unaware of Lu Fan's whereabouts.
Meanwhile, in a swamp, Elder Xuan Yue suddenly stopped, his gaze sweeping around. He felt a sense of surprise, unsure why he felt like someone was following him. Although the aura was quite subtle, he could sense it.
"Since you're here, reveal yourself!"
Elder Xuan Yue said coldly, "I don't know who you are, but if you keep following me, you must be my enemy!"
"Your perception is quite good, managing to sense my presence!" Su Dan Novel Network.
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes and appeared before Elder Xuan Yue, a faint cold glint in his eyes.
"So, it's you, kid!"
Elder Xuan Yue's expression turned icy, "I truly didn't expect you, a kid, to come here. Did you hear our entire conversation just now?"
"You're right, you planned to kill me. How ruthless!"
Lu Fan shrugged and said, "However, your wish will ultimately not be fulfilled, so the one who dies today is you!"
"Me?"
Elder Xuan Yue burst into laughter, "You have quite a bold tone, but I wonder if you have the ability. While I may not be able to suppress you, you can't possibly make a show of force in front of me, can you?"
"Who says I can't?"
Lu Fan said coldly, "Do you think you are my match?"
"Even if I'm not your match, I can still escape from you. Even if you are a favored child of heaven, you might not be able to cross boundaries to kill me!"
Elder Xuan Yue chuckled coldly, with a hint of arrogance.
"If I relied solely on my personal strength, it would indeed be a bit difficult to kill you completely!"
Lu Fan nodded slightly and said coldly, "But if I had a peerless divine weapon, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"A peerless divine weapon?"
Faced with these words, Elder Xuan Yue was startled. His expression showed a hint of emotion, as he had not expected Lu Fan to possess a peerless divine weapon.
"Kid, don't try to bluff me. A peerless divine weapon is not an ordinary item. How could you possibly have one!"
Elder Xuan Yue regained his composure and said coldly, "If I wasn't so astute, I would have almost been tricked by you!"
"Truly ignorant!"
Lu Fan shook his head. In that instant, the aura of the Divine Emperor Cauldron surged forth, appearing exceptionally terrifying.
Sensing the might of this peerless divine weapon, Elder Xuan Yue's face instantly turned ashen. He had never imagined that Lu Fan would actually possess a peerless divine weapon. This was no ordinary path; even if several more came, they would likely be no match.
"Young friend, please don't act rashly!" Xuan Yue quickly said, "You might not know, but I am an elder of the Heavenly Water Pavilion. If you truly kill me, the Heavenly Water Pavilion will not let this matter rest. From now on, we'll mind our own business, won't that be fine?"
"Just now, in the woods, I heard you clearly say you wanted to kill me!"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, "Is it not a bit inappropriate to say such things now?"
"It was just a joke just now, please don't take it seriously!"
Elder Xuan Yue said repeatedly, "As long as you spare me, I naturally won't trouble you!"
"Why should I spare you?"
Lu Fan shrugged slightly, "This is all your own doing, you can't blame anyone else!"
Faced with these words, Elder Xuan Yue's face turned ashen, "Do you really want to be my enemy?"
"That is natural!"
Lu Fan said, "It's not that I want to be your enemy, but that you want to kill me!"
"Therefore, this is a measure of last resort. I hope you can understand!"
Xuan Yue stood stunned, his face also ashen, "Are you determined to force me into a corner?"
"It's not me forcing you, you brought this upon yourself!"
Lu Fan said coldly, "This is also your fate. Fate is in your own hands. Whether you can control it depends on your ability!"
Faced with these words, Xuan Yue burst into laughter, "You speak great道理 (principles) quite well, but you should be aware of the consequences of offending the Heavenly Water Pavilion!"
"To be honest, I have no idea what you call the Heavenly Water Pavilion!"
Lu Fan sneered, his expression even more indifferent, "Therefore, you are destined to die today!"
Elder Xuan Yue's face was ashen. He could no longer care about anything else. In that instant, he turned and fled, attempting to escape Lu Fan's control. However, he discovered that under Lu Fan's control, he had no power at all.
"Is this the power of a peerless divine weapon? It can actually control my spiritual energy!"
Elder Xuan Yue said with a bitter smile, "Must I truly perish here today!"
"I don't know how many cultivators have died by your hand. Today is your punishment!"
Lu Fan said coldly, "People like you don't deserve to live in this world!"
After speaking, Lu Fan made a gesture with his hand, and Elder Xuan Yue instantly died, without even a trace of his aura remaining, looking quite pathetic.
Meanwhile, within the Heavenly Water Pavilion, everyone looked at the Elder's life tablet and found that Elder Xuan Yue's life tablet had shattered. They were instantly enraged, unsure who dared to kill an elder of their Heavenly Water Pavilion. This was a great provocation to the Heavenly Water Pavilion.
