Looking at Xiao Fan's back, Lan Ling's heart was filled with uncontrollable waves.
The incident in Silent Hill was a nightmare for her. She still couldn't forget the scene where Xiao Fan single-handedly slaughtered Lin Ye, Zhuo Jian, Young Master Fire Dragon and the others. Every time she thought about it, she would feel guilty.
After leaving Silent Hill, Lan Ling also wanted to report everything that happened in Silent Hill to the higher-ups of the Goddess Palace. Xiao Fan was definitely a great enemy that must be eliminated as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would become a huge threat. However, the power struggle in the Goddess Palace was very serious. She had many enemies in the Goddess Palace. Some of them had been trying to step her down from her position as the candidate of the Goddess. Therefore, the incident in Silent Hill became the best excuse for them to take action against her.
The death of the two beautiful elders of Goddess Palace was completely blamed on him. However, he didn't even meet the higher-ups of Goddess Palace, not to mention explaining what happened in Silent Hill and defending himself. After waiting in the conference hall for one day and one night, he directly received the order of being transferred and sent away.
Fortunately, she had some connections. Otherwise, it wouldn't be as simple as a transfer and exile. Instead, she would be directly imprisoned. She might not be able to endure the punishment and would have died in the prison. Then, her corpse would be casually buried in the wilderness.
Zhan Wuzong and Xiao Fan were close to each other and naturally wouldn't say much about what happened in Silent Hill. Although she knew about it, she couldn't tell anyone. She could only sigh faintly.
"Ninth Sister, what did you see? Why do you look so pale? " When Xie Shanshan saw that Lan Ling was still silent, a trace of suspicion appeared on her face. She followed Lan Ling's gaze but found nothing. She immediately grabbed Lan Ling's shoulder and gently shook it a couple of times as she softly spoke.
"I … I saw that person!" Lan Ling finally opened her mouth. Her voice was extremely hoarse.
"Who?" Xie Shanshan didn't react and asked in astonishment.
Lan Ling said with difficulty.
"Xiao Fan? The Xiao Fan who single-handedly slaughtered Lin Ye, Zhuo Jian, Fire Dragon Young Noble, and the others in Silent Hill? "Xie Shanshan raised her eyebrows and asked.
Although she couldn't tell the upper echelons of the Goddess Palace about what happened in Silent Hill, Lan Ling told Xie Shanshan about it as her best friend.
Xie Shanshan was a little skeptical of Lan Ling's words, but she didn't say anything. Now that Lan Ling mentioned Xiao Fan, she finally reacted.
"Yes!" Lan Ling's face was a little pale. She stared unblinkingly at Xiao Fan's back and nodded.
"Which one is him? How dare he humiliate you like that? I'll kill him! " In addition to being a gambler, Xie Shanshan was also a hot-tempered person. At this moment, she suddenly exploded. Her face was filled with anger as she roared.
It wasn't a secret that Lan Ling and the others were plotted against by Xiao Fan in Full Fragrance Pavilion in Golden Stone City. Many people present had witnessed it. Therefore, this matter had spread far and wide in the past few days.
Putting aside the dead Lin Ye, Zhuo Jian, Flaming Sun Young Noble, and Shen Zhanyang for the time being, Lan Ling, who was still alive, had heard a lot of mockery and ridicule behind her back.
It would be a lie if Lan Ling said that she didn't feel hatred and anger towards such mockery and ridicule. However, so what if she felt hatred and anger?
She couldn't kill Xiao Fan. Moreover, she had already lost her power. How could she mobilize a large number of forces of the Goddess Palace to kill Xiao Fan like before?
Since she couldn't do it, she could only endure it for the time being and wait for revenge in the future.
However, although this matter wasn't a small one, it wasn't a big one either. After all, who in the world hadn't experienced humiliation and low points?
For example, Akira Yuki of the Black Heaven Sect had been slapped in the face by the Demon Emperor Xiao Fan back then. He had been mocked by many people in the Qingyun Lower Continent for many years.
The current Patriarch of the Tuoba family had been chased to the brink and humiliated to the point where he had to kneel and beg for mercy. Many people had seen it and it had spread far and wide. Even now, wasn't he still being criticized?
The previous Sacred Lord of the Dayan Sacred Ground had been framed and imprisoned before ascending to the position of Sacred Lord. His life was hanging by a thread. In the end, he relied on his urine and feces to play the fool and successfully escaped death. In the end, he turned the tables and forcefully ascended to the position of Sacred Lord. Wasn't he still being criticized behind his back?
It was just the urine of a spiritual beast. Compared to the real humiliation, it was nothing.
Therefore, after considering several aspects, Lan Ling temporarily dismissed the idea of revenge against Xiao Fan. However, she still couldn't calm down when she saw Xiao Fan again.
"Don't go!" Lan Ling grabbed Xie Shanshan's arm and said softly when she saw the impulsive Xie Shanshan.
"Why don't I go?" Xie Shanshan had to stop and turn her head to ask.
"Not only is Xiao Fan powerful, but he's also a lawless madman!" Lan Ling shook her head and smiled bitterly. "He doesn't care who you are when he kills. In Silent Hill, I saw with my own eyes that he ignored the threats of Lin Ye, Flaming Sun Young Master, and Zhuo Jian. He killed them all without any hesitation!"
"If you go up rashly and anger him, I'm afraid …!"
"Is that so?" Xie Shanshan clearly did not take Lan Ling's words to heart. Instead, she raised her eyebrows and sneered disapprovingly. Her voice was filled with arrogance as she said, "I don't believe that Xiao Fan would dare to offend our Baixie family."
"If he dares to touch a hair on my head, our Baixie Family will kill him until he has nowhere to go. Even if he hides in the City of the Dead, it's useless!"
"Have you forgotten that he killed the disciples of the Black Sky Sect and Yuwen Tianqi?" Lan Ling reminded and sighed. "He even killed the people of the Ravenous Wolf Sect in public. If he wants to kill you, he won't hesitate!"
"The disciples of the Black Sky Sect, Yuwen Tianqi, and the Ravenous Wolf Sect that he killed were insignificant!" Xie Shanshan shook her head and sneered. "How can those people compare to me? Therefore, I dare say that even if I give Xiao Fan a hundred guts, he won't dare to touch me! "
Looking at the arrogant Xie Shanshan, Lan Ling was helpless. She could do nothing but smile bitterly.
This best friend of hers was good in every way, except that she had grown up in the Baixie Family and had been pampered since she was young. Therefore, her character was incomparably spoiled and arrogant, and she was extremely conceited. She usually didn't put anyone in her eyes.
Although Lan Ling had already told her about how terrifying Xiao Fan was, she didn't take it seriously. Now, she still wanted to find trouble with Xiao Fan. It was really a headache.
"Okay, okay, I beg you. Don't go. Don't you want to play? Let's go play at this gambling table! " Lan Ling glanced at Xiao Fan's back and quickly pulled Xie Shanshan away in the opposite direction. At the same time, she kept saying this.
"Okay!" Even though Xie Shanshan was unwilling, she had to give Lan Ling face since Lan Ling had said so. She could only glare hatefully at Xiao Fan's back and leave.
However, what Lan Ling and Xie Shanshan didn't know was that as soon as they left, Xiao Fan turned around and looked at their backs.
Lan Ling and Xie Shanshan were only 30 meters away from Xiao Fan. It wasn't too far. Moreover, how sharp were Xiao Fan's five senses? Therefore, he naturally noticed Lan Ling and Xie Shanshan.
However, he didn't care much about this. He just shook his head and smiled. He ignored them and continued to search for the Zuoqiu Family in the gambling hall.
Xiao Fan had already said that he and Lan Ling had an eye for an eye. Their enmity had been resolved. Now, Xiao Fan didn't have any killing intent towards Lan Ling. He only treated her as a familiar passerby.
Lan Ling and her best friend, Xie Shanshan, didn't take the initiative to provoke him. He also didn't have the interest to attack Lan Ling and Xie Shanshan.
.....
Arriving at a gambling table, Lan Ling and Xie Shanshan sat down and began to gamble.
There were many types of gambling in the Qingyun Lower Continent. Although the treasure gambling that Xiao Fan played in the Shengyue Restaurant in Sun Moon City was the most popular type of gambling, there were other popular types of gambling as well. Right now, Lan Ling and Xie Shanshan were playing a gambling game called the Big Dipper Card. It was also the gambling game that Xie Shanshan was most obsessed with.
The rules of the Seven Stars Card were similar to the Golden Flower on Earth. They were all about following the cards and placing bets. One game could make you lose all your money, but one game could also make you win a lot of money and become a rich man that everyone envied.
The more exciting the gambling game was, the more popular it was, and the more gamblers it would attract. Therefore, at this time, the Big Dipper gambling table was the most crowded table in the gambling hall. Three layers of people inside and three layers of people outside had surrounded the ten-person gambling table so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
However, although there were many people at this gambling table, there were very few people who dared to gamble. This was because the gambling on this table was too big. Every bet was one million purple cloud coins and every call was also one million purple cloud coins. Usually, the winning or losing of a game would be at least ten million purple cloud coins. Therefore, they really couldn't afford to gamble.
As for Xie Shanshan and Lan Ling, one was the young lady of the Baixie Family and the other was the preparatory goddess of the Goddess Palace. Not to mention other things, they definitely didn't lack money. Now that the game had ended and the dealer had won all six gamblers, they could only leave helplessly. Xie Shanshan and Lan Ling took the opportunity to replace them.
