Zhao Chi and the other elders of the Mist Cave Heaven had thought that Xiao Fan was alone and they didn't need to worry about him. Even if he was strong, he was just a junior disciple. How strong could he be?
The Mist Cave Heaven was one of the two overlords in the Qingfeng County. There were more than 20 Laozu of the Eighth Level of the True Martial Realm in the sect. They had countless disciples. How could they care about Xiao Fan?
However, they never expected that Xiao Fan could send Xu Shengyun, the Deputy Head of the Five Elements Sect, flying with a slap. Xiao Fan's strength had been revealed. He was at the Eighth Level of the True Martial Realm, which was the same level as Laozu of their sect.
Thinking of their impoliteness just now, Zhao Chi and the other elders of the Mist Cave Heaven only felt embarrassed.
Threatening a practitioner at the Eighth Level of the True Martial Realm? How bold did he have to be to do that?
At this time, they finally realized that what Xiao Fan had said was just a misunderstanding. It was true because Xiao Fan had almost killed Xu Shengyun with a flip of his hand. If Xiao Fan was really a member of the Five Elements Sect, would he do that?
Of course, they couldn't rule out the possibility that it was just a play. However, the play had been played to such an extent that he was almost killed. A Deputy Head of the Five Elements Sect was really too much.
Therefore, after considering all sides, they also understood that they might have really misunderstood Xiao Fan and Zhao Zilong before.
"Who else? If you want to come up, you can fight together! "Xiao Fan looked calm. He glanced at the disciples of the Five Elements Sect in front of him and said lightly.
No one answered, but the disciples of the Five Elements Sect in front of Xiao Fan subconsciously retreated in fear and took the initiative to make a way for Xiao Fan and Zhao Zilong to leave!
Xiao Fan lifted his foot and walked forward calmly, intending to leave. Zhao Zilong followed him step by step.
"Your Excellency is powerful, and we are indeed inferior to you!" Just as Xiao Fan was about to leave the encirclement of the Five Elements Sect's disciples, the Second Elder of the Five Elements Sect, Hu Fei, could not help but say in a deep voice, "However, you've killed two elite disciples of our Five Elements Sect and severely injured our Vice Sect Leader. Sooner or later, our Five Elements Sect's Laozu will find you and demand an explanation from you!"
Xiao Fan paused for a moment, then said flatly without looking back, "Whatever, just come. It doesn't matter how many people come!"
"Alright, then just you wait. Our Five Elements Sect will definitely settle this matter with you!" Hu Fei's face was gloomy, and there was a trace of cold killing intent in his voice.
Although Xiao Fan could be confirmed to be a True Martial Rank 8 cultivator, there were twenty to thirty True Martial Rank 8 Laozu in the Five Elements Sect. Today, they could not do anything to Xiao Fan, but once the Laozu made their move, killing Xiao Fan would be as easy as flipping their hands.
Xiao Fan only shook his head in response to Hu Fei's cold words, but he was too lazy to continue wasting time here. Di Nan's matter could not be delayed, so he left with Zhao Zilong.
"Hmph!" Hu Fei coldly looked at Xiao Fan's back that was getting further and further away. The killing intent in his eyes became even denser, and he let out a heavy cold snort.
"Sigh!" Ling Fengzi looked at Zhao Zilong who was getting further and further away, and suddenly felt a little regretful. He then sighed softly and muttered to himself.
As Zhao Zilong's master for a month, although Ling Fengzi did not have much contact with Zhao Zilong, he could see that Zhao Zilong was a good junior. If he was trained well, he would definitely be one of the core disciples of the Mist Cave Heaven.
However, Zhao Chi and the other elders of the Mist Cave Heaven were suspicious and cautious. At the beginning of Zhao Zilong's apprenticeship, they had regarded him as a target of suspicion. They had never been at ease, and at the same time, they did not listen to others' advice at all. Finally, the scene in front of them had already happened.
If they were not so suspicious, Xiao Fan, a True Martial Rank 8 cultivator with an unknown origin, would definitely become the foreign aid of the Mist Cave Heaven. And the sudden appearance of a True Martial Rank 8 cultivator in the Mist Cave Heaven was bound to be an effective blow and counterbalance to the current power of the Five Elements Sect.
But, what a pity, what a pity!
"Let's go!" Hu Fei glanced coldly at Zhao Chi and the other elders of the Mist Cave Heaven in front of him. With a gloomy face, he shouted angrily and then left quickly.
Xu Shengyun was seriously injured and unconscious. Even if Hu Fei brought many people with him, they might not be the opponents of Zhao Chi and the other elders of the Mist Cave Heaven. What's more, he still had important things to do and could not delay. Therefore, no matter how angry he was in his heart, he could only leave first.
Seeing Hu Fei leave, the disciples of the Five Elements Sect carried the seriously injured and dying Xu Shengyun and followed Hu Fei to the distance. Soon, they disappeared from the sight of Zhao Chi and the other elders and disciples of the Mist Cave Heaven.
"Head, we …!" Looking at Zhao Chi and the other elders of the Mist Cave Heaven who stood there silently for a long time, a disciple of the Mist Cave Heaven cautiously stepped forward and asked.
"Head, we can't let Zhao Zilong go like this!" Ignoring the disciple's words, a thin elder of the Mist Cave Heaven said in a low voice, "Zhao Zilong joined our Mist Cave Heaven as a disciple. We have always suspected that he joined our Mist Cave Heaven with an ulterior motive. Therefore, we have been investigating him these days!"
"After the investigation, we have some news. Two months ago, someone saw Zhao Zilong in Chaotic Heroes County, which is next to our Cool Wind County. Those who saw him all said that he was only at the Third Rank of the Nirvana Realm!"
"A month later, he joined our Mist Cave Heaven, and his cultivation was already at the Fourth Rank of the Nirvana Realm. Now, another month has passed, and he has already reached the Fifth Rank of the Nirvana Realm!"
"With such a shocking cultivation speed, he must have some secrets. We can't let him go so easily!"
"I know, but …!" Zhao Chi's expression was cold. He looked in the direction where Xiao Fan and Zhao Zilong had left. He opened his mouth to say something, but no words came out.
"That young man is a cultivator at Rank Eight of the True Martial Realm. Therefore, unless Laozu takes action, it is almost impossible for us to take them down!" Another elder of the Mist Cave Heaven said with a frown.
"That's right!" Several elders of the Mist Cave Heaven nodded and said.
"But it's still worth a try!" Greed flickered in the eyes of the skinny elder from the Mist Cave as he said, "Because if we had doubts about Zhao Zilong's cultivation speed before, we no longer have any doubts now. That young man is proof!"
"He has reached Rank Eight of the True Martial Realm at such a young age. Therefore, it can be seen that Zhao Zilong and that young man must have some kind of secret that can speed up cultivation!"
"If we can get this secret, our Mist Cave Heaven will usher in an unprecedented spring. In the near future, it is not impossible for our Mist Cave Heaven to become a big force that can move unhindered in the Qingyun Lower Continent!"
"Yes, we must get this secret!"
"Catch the two of them. We must get this secret!"
"Once we get this secret, the Five Elements Sect will be nothing!"
Many elders of the Mist Grotto cried out in low voices. Their voices were filled with unconcealable excitement.
"Well, we need to go back and discuss this matter with the Laozu before making a plan!" Zhao Chi's eyes flashed. He interrupted all the elders of the Mist Cave Heaven and said, "After all, it is not easy to catch a cultivator at Rank Eight of the True Martial Realm alive. It must be carefully planned!"
"Yes!" Most of the elders of the Mist Cave Heaven nodded and said.
"Let's go back to the sect and ask the Laozu to come out of closed-door training. Then we can discuss this important matter!" Zhao Chi said and turned around. At the same time, he rushed to the distance.
The other elders of the Mist Cave Heaven also nodded in agreement. Then, they followed Zhao Chi and left together.
Only Ling Fengzi and a few disciples of Ling Fengzi remained where they were.
However, at this time, Ling Fengzi looked at the direction where Zhao Chi and the other elders of the Mist Cave Heaven left. He suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
He thought that Zhao Chi and the elders of the Mist Cave Heaven stopped Xiao Fan and Zhao Zilong because of a misunderstanding. However, he never expected that Zhao Chi and the elders of the Mist Cave Heaven stopped Xiao Fan not only because of a misunderstanding, but also because they were interested in Zhao Zilong's secret of being able to advance quickly.
And this was the true face of Zhao Chi and the elders of the Mist Cave Heaven!
In addition, it was no wonder that although he was of the same generation as Zhao Chi and the other elders of the Mist Cave Heaven, and his strength was not inferior, he had always been a middle-level steward. He had never been able to get the position of an elder.
Because this was the gap between them!
In terms of scheming and shrewdness, he was no match for the other party. He was not even on the same level as the other party. He could not even see through the other party's true thoughts. If he could not guess the other party's thoughts, how could he be an elder with the other party?
Even if he became an elder, he would only be a chess piece in their hands. He would be played to death in minutes!
"Haha!" Ling Fengzi suddenly laughed at himself.
I have no chance to be an elder in this life! " Ling Fengzi muttered to himself again. Then, he shook his head and said, "However, it's good that I have no chance to be an elder. At least, I don't have to scheme against others all day long. My current situation is actually quite good. At least I don't have to worry about it!"
After muttering to himself, Ling Fengzi no longer thought about it. Then, he left quickly with his disciples.
As for the plan of Zhao Chi and the other elders of the Mist Cave Heaven, he had no intention of interfering because he and Zhao Zilong had only known each other for a month. Even if they had a master-disciple relationship, it was very weak. The Mist Cave Heaven was his home. Therefore, even if he felt sorry for Zhao Zilong and thought that Zhao Zilong was a good junior, he had no intention of interfering in this matter.
After all, this matter was a good thing for the entire Mist Cave Heaven. He had no reason to stop it.
However, Ling Fengzi would never have thought that this matter would soon become the most regretful thing in his life. Because the only close relationship between Zhao Zilong and the Mist Cave Heaven was him, his master. If he had been able to stop it in time, perhaps Xiao Fan would not have exterminated the Mist Cave Heaven for Zhao Zilong's sake, and the Mist Cave Heaven would not have been completely destroyed and ceased to exist.
However, there was no medicine for regret in this world. This matter would become the regret of Ling Fengzi's life. He would live in regret for the rest of his life, unable to extricate himself. (To be continued.)
