The smile on Old Man Zuoqiu's face grew wider when he heard the first part of Wang Haoran's speech. However, the second part of his speech made his old face scrunch up.
"What do you mean, young friend?" Old Man Zuoqiu's expression turned serious. He could not tell whether Wang Haoran was a friend or a foe.
"Don't worry. I'm not with Mr. Ye," Wang Haoran clarified and continued.
"At least you know each other, right?" Old Man Zuoqiu asked in surprise.
"You can take it that we're enemies," Wang Haoran said.
Old Man Zuoqiu was even more confused when he heard that. "If that's the case, why are you stopping the meeting of the ten martial arts families?"
"Because you're too weak. Even if all of you work together, you won't be able to defeat Master Ye," Wang Haoran said bluntly.
"You must be joking, young friend." Old Man Zuoqiu naturally did not believe him.
The martial arts in Cangzhou had been developing for many years. The ten martial arts families were extremely powerful when they joined forces. How could they not even defeat Master Ye?
Seeing Old Man Zuoqiu's reaction, Wang Haoran knew that this stubborn old man would not change his mind if he did not show him something practical.
With that in mind, Wang Haoran did not deliberately hide all of his True Qi. He revealed half of his True Qi cultivation base.
His aura spread out and soon disappeared.
Even so, Old Man Zuoqiu still noticed it.
"You're actually an Elixir-jin Grandmaster?!" Old Man Zuoqiu was shocked.
He thought that Wang Haoran was only a HuaJin Grandmaster with a hundred years of True Qi. He never expected that Wang Haoran was actually an Elixir-jin Grandmaster with two hundred years of True Qi.
Wang Haoran caught a glimpse of Old Man Zuoqiu's reaction and was secretly amused.
'Two hundred years of True Qi and you're so surprised? 'If I reveal four hundred years of True Qi cultivation base, you'll be scared to death.'
He thought to himself mockingly.
However, the mockery soon dissipated.
Although four hundred years of True Qi was amazing, it was nothing compared to Ye Fan's.
As he absorbed more and more memories, Wang Haoran also had a basic understanding of some of the ways of immortal cultivation.
The limit of martial arts was 500 years' worth of True Qi. Hence, they were known as land immortals.
But if he really wanted to make a fuss about it, the title of "Human Immortal Lu Di" was just smearing gold on his face.
This was because Human Immortal Lu Di was only equivalent to the fifth level of Qi Disciple.
What was the Refinement Stage? This was the beginning stage of cultivation!
There were a total of nine levels in the Qi Refinement Stage!
The gap between martial arts and immortal cultivation was like a natural chasm.
He might be impressive in front of Old Man Zuoqiu, but he was nothing in front of Ye Fan.
Wang Haoran's villainous aura was already very high. Logically speaking, when he met Ye Fan, even if Ye Fan did not show any hostility towards him, he would at least pay special attention to him.
But Ye Fan didn't.
The reason was simple.
Even though Ye Fan was only at the fifth level of qi disciple, he still had the vision and pride of a celestial lord.
In Ye Fan's eyes, the people around him were just ants.
Why would he pay special attention to ants?
"That's nothing. That Grandmaster Ye is even more powerful. If the ten great martial arts families gather together to deal with Grandmaster Ye, it's like hitting a rock with an egg. You're just asking for trouble," Wang Haoran said calmly.
Old Man Zuoqiu became timid when he heard that.
Forget about Grandmaster Ye, even if the martial arts families worked together, they might not be able to gain an advantage over someone of Wang Haoran's cultivation.
"If we don't work together, are we going to let Grandmaster Ye deal with us one by one?" Old Man Zuoqiu was worried.
Wang Haoran had already guessed that one of the ten great martial arts families had offended Ye Fan.
And after knowing that Ye Fan was a celestial lord, he was almost certain of that.
If it wasn't necessary, Ye Fan would definitely not mess with martial arts cultivators. It was not worth it at all.
Moreover, Wang Haoran had obtained Ye Fan's memories and learned about Ye Fan's way of doing things and principles.
Ye Fan would not provoke ants. If he really did make a move, it could only mean that the ant was too noisy.
It was like a normal person walking on the road. If he saw an ant, he would not deliberately step on it. However, if the ant insisted on walking on the road, it would be a different story.
That was probably the reason why Ye Fan had a conflict with some of the martial arts families.
Of course, Wang Haoran would definitely not say those words to Old Man Zuoqiu.
"If you guys work together, you'll only alert the enemy and affect my plan. Cancel the meeting of the ten great martial arts families. I'll deal with Grandmaster Ye, "Wang Haoran said.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, little friend," Old Man Zuoqiu agreed. He then reminded earnestly, "Little friend, you must be careful so that you won't be at a disadvantage in the hands of Grandmaster Ye."
"He's at most a little stronger than me. If we really fight, I might not be able to defeat him but I won't be at a disadvantage," Wang Haoran said casually.
However, in reality, he was no match for Ye Fan at all.
That guy was also an Immortal Venerable. Although he was only at 50% of the Qi Refinement Stage, Wang Haoran was still far from being his match.
The only thing Wang Haoran could rely on was his deep understanding of Ye Fan's character after copying his memories.
Ye Fan was definitely not someone who would take the initiative to cause trouble. It was impossible for him to be calculative with an ant.
Wang Haoran had grasped this point.
As long as the meeting of the ten great martial arts families to discuss how to deal with Ye Fan was canceled, Ye Fan would definitely not cause trouble.
Although Old Man Zuoqiu was old and experienced, Wang Haoran's acting was worthy of being called the best actor. Old Man Zuoqiu could not tell that Wang Haoran was bluffing at all. After hearing Wang Haoran's words, he immediately believed it.
Old Man Zuoqiu looked at Wang Haoran with an even more fervent gaze after this thought popped up in his mind.
"Why are you standing outside and eavesdropping? Hurry up and come in," Old Man Zuoqiu said to the direction outside the living room.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zuoqiu Luoyan's head popped out from the door of the living room.
Old Man Zuoqiu and Wang Haoran had long discovered that Zuoqiu Luoyan was eavesdropping. However, they did not point it out. It was only when Old Man Zuoqiu suddenly thought of something that he called out Zuoqiu Luoyan who was eavesdropping.
"What eavesdropping? I'm just passing by," Zuoqiu Luoyan walked in openly. She did not admit that she was eavesdropping at all.
Naturally, Old Man Zuoqiu would not dwell on this matter.
In fact, he had long seen through his granddaughter's thoughts about Wang Haoran.
Old Man Zuoqiu did not object to this at all. In fact, he even wanted to facilitate this matter.
After organizing his words, Old Man Zuoqiu chuckled and said to Wang Haoran, "Young Man Zuoqiu, you don't seem to understand.
"Young friend, don't be fooled by Luoyan's appearance of 13 or 14 years old. In fact, she is already over 20 years old. It's only because she has practiced our Zuoqiu family's heirloom cultivation method that her figure is petite."
"But you don't have to worry. When Luoyan's heirloom cultivation method is fully mastered, it won't take long for her figure to return to her normal age."
While speaking, Zuoqiu Luoyan looked at Wang Haoran meaningfully and continued.
"Young friend, didn't you say earlier that you wanted to take a good look at the Zuoqiu family? The Zuoqiu family is very big and it will take some time to tour. Why don't you stay in my Zuoqiu Clan's residence for the night and let Luoyan take you around. "
