"Come in!"
Xiao Hua ordered calmly as he returned to the Crimson Peak in his mind.
Lan Fan and the others were overjoyed and hurried in.
"Master Xiao ~" Lan Fan was straightforward. When he saw Xiao Hua, he knelt down and kowtowed, "I beg for forgiveness, please forgive me, Master Xiao."
"Hehe ~" Xiao Hua smiled and lifted Lan Fan up. He chuckled and said, "If I didn't agree, how could I allow you to do this? Since I didn't say anything, it means that I acquiesced! "
"Thank you, thank you!"
Lan Fan was really happy because many Confucian Immortals of the Heavenly Court cherished their reputation and wouldn't allow others to use their reputation.
At first, Lan Fan did not think too much about this plan. However, when he arrived and saw Xiao Hua displaying more and more divine abilities, Lan Fan's back was covered in sweat. He knew that he might have touched his reverse scale. However, everything was already set in stone and had to be shot.
In the past year, Lan Fan had been cleaning up the mess and reaping the rewards. He had been feeling uneasy, but now that Xiao Hua had spoken, he felt at ease!
Seeing that the three family heads were a little reserved, Xiao Hua simply asked, "You've been working hard for thousands of years, how's the result?"
"Master Xiao ~" Lan Fan hurriedly said, "At first, I just wanted to help Du Bin find the person who poisoned him and see if I could plot against the Chen family or the Xu family. Who knew that Du Feng and the other three elders of the Du family would collude with the Chen family, and the Chen family and the Xu family had an alliance. So, I waited for this battle to cripple the Chen family and the Xu family."
Looking at Lan Fan, Du Bin also said, "I also cleaned up the traitor of the Du family and the traitor disciples. Brother Meng Lan and Brother Dong also took 30% of the Xu family."
"Junior is Dong Xing ~" The head of the Dong Clan hurriedly bowed and said, "Our Dong Clan has also borrowed the strength of the Lan Clan to take seventy percent of the Xu Clan's wealth. We were only confident because of senior's leadership. Junior thanks senior!"
"Actually ~" Xiao Hua smiled and waved his hand, "I don't care about these things. What I'm interested in is, Lan Fan, I messed up your plan. What do you think?"
"Haha, Teacher Xiao ~" Lan Fan laughed loudly and said, "Do you think this junior is such a narrow-minded person? What's more, you don't have any plans for me at all. If you don't believe me, you can ask Du Bin. "
At this time, Du Bin had already completely recovered. Although his cultivation base had yet to recover, his complexion was extremely good. He also smiled and said, "What Lan Fan said is true. Although this junior tried my best to matchmake him and Jing 'er after this junior passed away, Jing' er and he did not agree. Therefore, what Master Xiao said was not in Lan Fan's plan!"
Xiao Hua smiled and didn't pursue the matter. Dong Xing explained from the side, "Master Xiao might have heard some rumors, but those can't be taken seriously. Thinking back to the matter back then, other than the three of them, perhaps only this junior knows the most about it!"
"That's right, that's right!" Lan Fan smiled and said, "When we swore to the heavens, Dong Xing was the witness!"
Xiao Hua asked with interest, "What's going on?"
Dong Xing cleared his throat and told him the ins and outs of the matter.
In fact, it was simple. Dong Jing was the famous talented girl of the Dong Family. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also talented. Her wisdom was also unparalleled in Xuan Pu, attracting many suitors.
Not to mention Lan Fan and Du Bin, even Dong Xing was among them.
However, Dong Jing's vision was very high and her behavior was cautious. She only befriended Lan Fan and Du Bin, and did not say anything to Dong Xing.
Du Bin and Lan Fan were good friends. When they were young, Du Bin and Lan Fan swore to the heavens in front of Dong Jing that no matter who Dong Jing chose, they would not fall out with each other and would still be good friends.
Dong Xing happened to be accompanying Dong Jing, so he was the witness.
The Lan Family, Du Family, and Dong Family naturally had their own interests. Therefore, Dong Jing, Lan Fan, and Du Bin could make their own decisions in their relationships, but did not have much say in their marriage.
Although Dong Jing and Lan Fan were best friends, and Lan Fan was more talented than Du Bin, due to various reasons, Dong Jing had no choice but to marry Du Bin.
Before the Dong Family's Patriarch order was issued, Dong Jing struggled with all her might, but she failed in the end. Therefore, after the order was issued, Dong Jing asked Dong Xing to accompany her to meet Lan Fan and Du Bin.
Naturally, Lan Fan was heartbroken and depressed. During this time, Du Bin and Dong Xing did not abandon him, whether it was cultivation or training, they were inseparable.
When Du Bin and Dong Jing got married, Lan Fan finally got rid of the knot in his heart and focused on cultivation. He stood out among the disciples and obtained the qualification to be the Patriarch. Then, Du Bin and Dong Xing also began to rise.
Among the families at the edge of Xuan Pu, the Lan Family, Du Family, and Chen Family were the top three, followed by the Dong Family and Xu Family.
At that time, the Lan Family and Du Family were mortal enemies, killing each other. Many disciples suffered. Dong Jing's marriage was, to a certain extent, a sacrifice of the two families' hostility.
Therefore, after Lan Fan had a chance to become the Patriarch, Du Bin, Dong Xing, and Dong Jing began to discuss and decided to change their previous hostility. To do this, they could only obtain the position of Patriarch.
Therefore, the four of them worked together. Lan Fan and Dong Jing came up with the idea, and Du Bin and Dong Xing carried it out. The result was obvious. The three of them stood out among the disciples and became the Patriarch of each family.
After the three of them got the benefits, their cooperation became closer.
Of course, in order to confuse the Chen Family and Xu Family, on the surface, the Du Family and Lan Family were still mortal enemies. Usually, there were disputes, gambling, and even killing.
When Du Bin was poisoned, the first suspect would be Lan Fan, but Du Bin believed in Lan Fan. In order to add fuel to the fire, under Dong Jing's suggestion, the two of them had a gambling fight. They pretended that Du Bin was injured by Lan Fan, and then Du Bin's injury was announced to the public. Dong Jing was temporarily the Patriarch of the Du Family.
Unfortunately, after investigating for a long time, the three families only suspected Du Feng and the others. They did not have any solid evidence. Moreover, if they touched these elders, the Du Family would suffer a great loss, so they wanted to wait until Du Bin was cured.
Who knew that Du Bin was going to die, and they did not get the antidote.
Moreover, their opportunity to find the traitor never came.
Just as Xiao Hua expected, when Xiao Hua proposed to use the Six Dust Imperial Basket, Lan Fan's eyes lit up. Wasn't this the opportunity he had been looking for all along?
Lan Fan even included the Chen Family in his calculations and made a decision to stake everything on this one throw.
At first, Du Bin did not agree. After all, this would have a great impact on the Lan Family, and the Du Family would also suffer a great loss. However, Dong Jing knew that this was the last chance, so she immediately plotted with Dong Xing.
After that, everything went as Lan Fan expected. The only exception was Xiao Hua. Even the Xu Family's reaction was within Lan Fan's calculations.
With Xiao Hua's three hundred and sixty disciples who were stronger than them, Lan Fan understood that he did not have to worry about any danger.
There was another exception, and that was Dong Jing's bloodline.
Xiao Hua's shadow clone in the Du Family knew about this, but Xiao Hua did not intend to point it out.
However, after Dong Xing finished speaking, Du Bin asked, "Brother Dong, I have a question. At the critical moment, Jing 'er used her bloodline to activate our Du Family's Immortal Anthology. What's going on?"
"Hehe …" Dong Xing chuckled and said, "I'll let Dong Jing explain it to you! She didn't know before, but after I took over the position of Family Head, I found out about it and told her. Before she could explain it to you, you were poisoned. You were a little suspicious at that time, so she couldn't explain it to you. Now that you're cured, and the Chen Family and Xu Family have collapsed, it should be the best time to explain. "
Lan Fan looked at Xiao Hua and said, "We're all involved, so it's not convenient for us to testify. Why don't we ask Master Xiao to testify?"
"That's right!"
Xiao Hua nodded and said, "It's the best way for you to get along with each other so that you won't be suspicious of each other. Since I'm involved in this, it's only right for me to be your witness!"
Du Bin sent the letter out. Not long after, Dong Jing came over and kowtowed. She looked at Du Bin and thought that Xiao Hua was her benefactor, so kowtowing was not enough to show her respect.
Xiao Hua looked at Dong Jing. She was a beautiful and intelligent Confucian girl. From Dong Xing's words, Xiao Hua knew that she had played a great role in the Lan Family and Du Family's plan for thousands of years. She was indeed a good match for Lan Fan! Her intelligence did not belong to Lan Fan.
Lan Fan's strength was in the plan and command, while Dong Jing's strength was in cooperation and details. Otherwise, the Lan Family and Du Family would not have had the absolute advantage in this conflict.
"You're very good!" Xiao Hua smiled and helped Dong Jing up. "There aren't many disciples like you among my disciples."
"Senior, you flatter me!"
Dong Jing was a little scared. After all, it was rare to see a senior with unfathomable strength like Xiao Hua at the edge of Xuan Pu. Moreover, the Confucian Immortals of the Celestial Court did not like to fight, so she was afraid that Xiao Hua would not like it.
"After hearing Dong Xing, Du Bin, and Lan Fan's words, I'm quite moved!" Xiao Hua said, "You are all broad-minded and do not forget the past. Although you have your own families now and have your own responsibilities, you are still the same youths. Your feelings for each other have not changed at all. Time is only a test, and the faith in your hearts has not decreased. This is what I like. "
"Moreover, Xuan Pu is so big, why do the families have to fight each other? Why fight each other? If we work together, the world will be big! "
"Actually, it's nothing. If you are more powerful than me, I will try my best to suppress you. If you are more powerful than me, I will try my best to frame you."
"Work together, it's a win-win situation!"
Hearing this, Lan Fan and the others looked at each other, their eyes shining. They hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you for your guidance, senior. This is also the same as when we formed an alliance!"
"Mm." Xiao Hua nodded. "In that case, I am willing to be your witness. I am also willing to watch your Lan, Du, and Dong families grow stronger in Xuan Pu and reach … the peak of the Celestial Court!"
Hearing this, Dong Xing and Du Bin had an incredulous look on their faces.
Xiao Hua was still the same youth, and he was also the same youth who came in third. His original intentions had not changed!
However, because of the reality, everyone has seen the results of the Immortal World chapter. Therefore, from tomorrow onwards, the Immortal World chapter will be updated once a day, with 2000 words per update. I hope everyone can understand.
