After the Beast Battle Tournament, Red Rock City once again fell into an eerie silence.
The mortals living at the bottom of the city might not have noticed it, but all the cultivators in the city, whether they belonged to the various forces or the individual cultivators, were all serious and solemn, as if they were facing a great enemy!
The entire Red Rock City was filled with an especially oppressive atmosphere!
Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed!
At noon today, the twelve suns in the sky were scorching the earth. Xiao Fan was riding on a beautiful white tiger that was as beautiful as jade as he leisurely walked towards Red Rock City.
In these three days, Xiao Fan did not return to Red Rock City, nor did he return to the City Lord's Mansion. Instead, he found a quiet place in the outskirts and began to refine the Fire Spirit Rock.
Originally, refining the Fire Spirit Rock would have taken at most half a day, but Xiao Fan happened to find a stalk of Nine Dragon Grass. This Nine Dragon Grass was about to mature, so Xiao Fan decided to wait for two more days until the Nine Dragon Grass had withered. Only then did he collect the grass seeds and return.
With the Nine Dragon Grass seeds and the news from Zhao Zilong's side, Golden Roc Trading Firm had already admitted defeat. Not only did they buy back the Blue Jade Flower, Purple Wind Grass, Hundred Yellow Fruit, and the other 18 herbs at a high price, they also sold all the herbs that Xiao Fan needed at a low price.
Now that he had collected all the ingredients, it was time for him to return and refine pills.
As for the white jade tiger, it was one of the overlords of the primitive forest outside Red Rock City. The Nine Dragon Grass was originally in its bag, but it was unlucky enough to meet Xiao Fan. In the end, not only did it lose the Nine Dragon Grass, it was also forced to become Xiao Fan's mount.
Of course, it was not that the white jade tiger did not resist, but when Xiao Fan grabbed it by its hind legs and pinned it to the ground, it lost its temper. It immediately lost its temper and gave up its dignity as the King of the Monster Beasts. It carried Xiao Fan back to Red Rock City and let Xiao Fan order it around.
This White Jade Tiger was a high-grade Demonic Beast. Although it was not good at speed, it was still faster than the Black Dragon Horse. Therefore, it only took 2 hours to reach Red Rock City from the forest.
Arriving at the city gate, Xiao Fan rode the white jade tiger straight into the city. As soon as he entered the city, his surroundings fell silent!
Because the white jade tiger's body was enormous, and its head was ferocious. Its eyes flickered with cold light, and its entire body was emitting a baleful aura. With a single glance, one could tell that it was not an ordinary Monstrous Beast, and such a ferocious Monstrous Beast was enough to intimidate anyone.
Xiao Fan patted the white jade tiger's head, indicating for it to walk towards the Moon Reflecting Pavilion. However, the white jade tiger did not immediately move. It turned its head and looked around. It let out a low growl and bared its teeth at all the humans around it.
Seeing the fear in everyone's eyes as they involuntarily took a step back. It seemed to have found some comfort from Xiao Fan. Then, it opened its huge mouth, as if mocking everyone present. It then raised its tiger claws and slowly walked towards the direction that Xiao Fan indicated.
As they watched Xiao Fan's back slowly leaving, a few people in the crowd who had seen Xiao Fan's appearance before finally recovered from the shock of seeing the white jade tiger. After which, their expressions changed drastically. One by one, their figures scattered in panic. He quickly went to report to his master.
"Xiao Fan, you're back!"
This news instantly broke the rare three days of peace in Red Rock City. In an instant, all the forces in the city woke up and sent out their own spies to gather in the direction of Xiao Fan's destination, the Moon Reflecting Pavilion!
.....
At the same time, in the Moon Reflecting Pavilion!
"Master Zhao, please have a seat!"
"Master Zhao. What would you like to drink? What would you like to eat? "
"Master Zhao …!"
Zhao Zilong was escorted into the Moon Reflecting Pavilion by a group of people. Then, countless respectful and flattering expressions could be heard!
The reason for this was very simple. Not everyone knew that Xiao Fan was behind Zhao Zilong. Many people only saw the manager of the Golden Roc Trading Company, He Yun, kneeling in front of Zhao Zilong on the street two days ago and kowtowing to him. She begged for Zhao Zilong's forgiveness. Even Lv Zhilong appeared at the end. He was all smiles as he chatted happily with Zhao Zilong. They looked like good brothers.
Therefore, Zhao Zilong suddenly became popular in some people's eyes. Since yesterday, people had been courteously inviting Zhao Zilong. No matter where Zhao Zilong went, people would think of ways to curry favor with him!
However, Zhao Zilong did not have the time to enjoy this situation. He could only force a smile on his face. His mind was in a mess. From time to time, he could feel a faint wetness in his pants.
Zhao Zilong had been in Red Rock City for many years and had many 'friends' in Red Rock City. Therefore, when he unintentionally found out about Xiao Fan's incident in the Windward Array Guild and the Bestial Battle Arena, he immediately had the urge to pack up and leave Red Rock City!
When he met Xiao Fan at the Golden Roc Trading Company that day, Zhao Zilong actually had a good impression of Xiao Fan. He thought that Xiao Fan was a relatively rich and gentle cultivator. However, he never expected Xiao Fan to be able to do those two shocking things.
Zhao Zilong thought about the forces that Xiao Fan had offended in Red Rock City and the fact that he was considered to be Xiao Fan's accomplice. It was too late for him to get off the boat. Zhao Zilong had the urge to commit suicide.
However, Zhao Zilong was a person who cherished his life. Therefore, after thinking about it for a day and night, he finally understood his current situation.
Right now, the only thing he could do was to follow Xiao Fan to the end. As long as Xiao Fan didn't die, he wouldn't die. However, if Xiao Fan unfortunately died, he had no other choice but to slit his own throat.
Although He Yun and Lv Zhilong were extremely respectful to him the day before yesterday, if Xiao Fan wasn't around, he wouldn't be able to live for more than half an hour. Those two were actually two venomous snakes who were good at enduring. Their hearts were black.
"I don't care anymore. Since things have already come to this, so be it if I die. It's worth it to be able to enjoy being a big shot before I die!" Zhao Zilong hardened his heart and said to himself. Then, he allowed himself to relax and began to order the people around him who wanted to curry favor with him.
While Zhao Zilong was acting like a boss in the Moon Reflecting Pavilion, Xiao Fan leisurely arrived at the Moon Reflecting Pavilion. After instructing the white jade tiger to obediently lie down at the entrance of the Moon Reflecting Pavilion and wait for him, Xiao Fan walked upstairs. (Not yet)
