"There seems to be no better option now!" Xuan Bei spoke, "If we trouble him today, it will undoubtedly bring immense trouble upon us!"
"However, to deal with him, the three great sacred lands have all been mobilized, and with such momentum, if we let him go like this, what face will we have left!" Jiutian Xuannü frowned, highly dissatisfied with the situation.
"At this point, does Jiutian Xuannü wish to take the lead?"
Xuan Bei said helplessly, "If that is truly the case, Jiutian Xuannü must think clearly. He is the number one killer in the King Realm, Jian Bei Tian. His reputation is well-deserved. If we offend him, we might be easily killed by him whenever we try to leave the sacred lands in the future!"
"Since that is the case, why don't we control the peerless divine weapon and keep him here as well!" Jiutian Xuannü stated directly, further bewildered by the actions of Xuan Bei and the others. How could the Supreme Elders of the sacred lands be so fearful of others?
"Jiutian Xuannü may not know that peerless divine weapons require constant revival to unleash their full power. However, the person before us understands the place of return, and is also the number one in the King Realm. Even if he wanted to kill us now, it is not certain that he couldn't achieve it!"
Jiutian Xuannü was instantly stunned and somewhat shocked. She had not expected things to turn out this way, catching her off guard.
"Therefore, our best course of action now is to let him leave," the Lin family's grand-uncle nodded. "Although I am quite unwilling in my heart, we have no choice but to do so."
Seeing that the people from the two great sacred lands said this, Jiutian Xuannü was instantly disheartened. She had originally wanted Lu Fan to hand over the Pan Tao, but now it seemed there was no opportunity. With the protection of the number one expert in the King Realm, how could he possibly hand over the Pan Tao?
At the same time, many people were surprised, wondering what had happened. The appearance of a figure in black had made the three great sacred lands submit, even daring not to act rashly. This was something that had never happened before.
Seeing that no one dared to stop him, Jian Bei Tian directly took Lu Fan and left. Where they went, no one knew.
"Truly a failed endeavor. The three powers joined forces, yet they couldn't kill him!" the Lin family's grand-uncle frowned. "If this brat is allowed to grow, it will be a devastating blow to us!"
Following these words, everyone nodded solemnly, yet they didn't know what to do. At this point, it was not what they had wished for.
"With such talent, he will likely achieve great things in time!" the Yaochi Saintess said. "This failure is certainly not good for the three great sacred lands!"
The Lin family's grand-uncle frowned. He naturally understood this matter, but at this stage, he felt somewhat helpless. This was not what he had wished for, but the reality was what it was.
"With Jian Bei Tian's protection, it will be extremely difficult to deal with this brat!" Xuan Bei said helplessly. "This matter is likely not trivial, and we cannot be too careless!"
"Since things have come to this, there is nothing more to say!"
The Lin family's grand-uncle stated directly, "Let's return as quickly as possible! We brought out the peerless divine weapon, but it did not serve its true purpose. We are ashamed to face the sacred lands."
After a sigh, everyone stepped forward, their eyes filled with helplessness.
Meanwhile, within the Myriad Ancient Tao Family, everyone learned that Lu Fan was unharmed and immediately showed joy. They had not expected that a powerful expert would eventually rescue him.
The young master of the Tao family also showed a look of joy. He had been worried that Lu Fan would encounter great trouble and even felt immense guilt. Now that he saw Lu Fan safe and sound, he was naturally satisfied.
"Young Master Tao, you should be thanked greatly for today's events!" Gui Ying cupped his fists and said, "However, we must also leave. Staying in the Tao Family for too long might bring unnecessary trouble to the Tao Family!"
"I will not stop you from leaving now!" the young master of the Tao family nodded. "But rest assured, with the help of a powerful expert, Lu Fan will surely be fine. You can all be at ease!"
"Young Master Tao, rest assured, we will now look for the leader. After finding the leader, we will plan the next step!" Gui Ying said. "As for the kindness of the Desolate Ancient Tao Family, we will never forget it!"
The young master of the Tao family nodded slightly, his expression indifferent. He did not pay too much attention to what had happened today.
At the same time, on a mountain peak, Jian Bei Tian gently put Lu Fan down before heading into the sword hut, appearing very familiar with the place. This peak soared into the clouds, as if one had reached the realm of immortals.
Bringing out a few pills, Jian Bei Tian said, "I know you have awakened, so why pretend to be asleep? Since I saved you, I naturally will not harm you!"
Lu Fan slightly opened his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man before him, then smiled and said, "Are you also from the Assassin Dynasty? Otherwise, why do you possess such powerful killing intent?"
"The number one King Realm killer of the Assassin Dynasty, named Jian Bei Tian!"
Jian Bei Tian introduced himself, his expression calm.
"The number one Saint Realm killer of the Assassin Dynasty, Hao Tian!" Lu Fan smiled faintly. "It seems we are quite similar, but senior is of a higher rank, being the first in the King Realm!"
"And what does that matter?"
Jian Bei Tian revealed a smile. "No matter how powerful one is, it cannot save the Assassin Dynasty. It is merely struggling to survive!"
"Senior is referring to the headquarters?" Lu Fan's expression changed. "What happened at the headquarters? Why did it fall in an instant? Could it be the work of the great sacred lands from ancient times?"
"If it were just the sacred lands, how could they have brought down the Assassin Dynasty!" Jian Bei Tian shook his head. "At that time, the Assassin Dynasty possessed boundless power. Even if all the sacred lands in the Eastern Domain wanted to act against the Assassin Dynasty, they wouldn't have been able to do so!"
"Senior is absolutely right. You alone could hold back thousands of troops." Lu Fan nodded slightly. "But what exactly happened back then? Why did the Assassin Dynasty perish, leaving behind only numerous branch divisions?"
"Branch divisions of the Assassin Dynasty?" Jian Bei Tian scoffed. "They are merely created by some low-level killers from the Assassin Dynasty in the past. They are not worth mentioning and cannot represent the Assassin Dynasty. The Assassin Dynasty was above the sacred lands, so how could it be bullied by them!"
At this point, Jian Bei Tian felt a surge of sadness. Lu Fan could sense how powerful the Assassin Dynasty was back then to make Jian Bei Tian speak with such solemnity.
"The past is already unbearable to recall, and I do not wish to mention it further. Saving you today is purely out of interest," Jian Bei Tian said indifferently. "After your injuries have healed, you may leave on your own."
