A heroes' banquet?

Lin Bufan said, "I have attended this kind of banquet many times."

Leijiabao is optional; there's nothing particularly interesting about it.

It's enough that his wife, Li Hanyi, goes; he doesn't need to go.

Just then, Tang Lian also said that she had received a letter from her master, saying that he would be back in half a month.

The timing was roughly the same, around the same time as the Heroes' Banquet.

Since that's the case, of course we should stay here and wait for Baili Dongjun peacefully.

Li Hanyi is good, but the women in Ninghe Town are just as good, all waiting to drink the Enlightenment Immortal Wine.

Lei Hong suffered a defeat and lost the right to choose Li Hanyi, so he was very depressed and had no chance to stay as a guest in Snow Moon City.

He left a message, instructing Lei Wujie and Li Hanyi to return to Lei Family Fort on time.

After Lei Hong left, Peach Blossom Garden became lively again.

Lei Wujie was relieved that his master hadn't been killed. He knew his master's strength, and he knew Lin Bufan's strength even better.

"Brother-in-law, I thank you on his behalf for not killing my master."

"Do you want me to kill him?"

Lin Bufan said with a smile.

Li Hanyi was next to Lin Bufan, and Lin Bufan casually put his arm around her waist.

Li Hanyi slapped his hand and scolded, "The thunder is gone, so behave yourself."

"Hehehe, then I'll come find you tonight?" Lin Bufan said with a carefree laugh.

"Don't come any closer, I won't open the door for you," Li Hanyi said, her face flushed.

...

Half a month later, Lei Wujie, Tang Lian, Sikong Qianluo, Li Hanyi and others went to Lei Family Fort.

Lin Bufan remained in Snow Moon City to wait for that man.

Sikong Qianluo originally wanted to stay and accompany him, but her father insisted that she go to Lei Family Fort with him.

The Heroes' Banquet is a great opportunity to broaden one's horizons, and she can't afford to waste it. She needs to meet the senior martial arts masters or her peers.

Several days after the others left, Lin Bufan waited for Baili Dongjun to return, but he did not see him come back.

Ask Sikong Changfeng, he knows nothing.

Lord Gun Immortal did not receive Lord Wine Immortal's message by carrier pigeon.

Half a day later, Sikong Changfeng finally received a carrier pigeon.

Opening the note, however, it wasn't a message from Baili Dongjun, but a letter from his daughter.

Bad news, very bad news.

Something terrible has happened.

"Qianluo and the others have perished."

Sikong Changfeng took the small note to Lin Bufan and said with a solemn expression, "Li Hanyi is also in trouble."

"What's going on?" Lin Bufan took the note and quickly scanned it.

The note said that the group was ambushed on the road by assassins from the Dark River and the Angry Sword Immortal.

They were all injured. Li Hanyi covered their retreat, holding off several top experts.

"The three great families of the Dark River, and the Angry Sword Immortal?"

Lin Bufan clenched his fists, his tone icy: "Bai Xiaosheng has publicly stated that Li Hanyi is my person, and they still dare to make a move? They're courting death."

Sikong Changfeng hurriedly grabbed the silver spear: "I'll go with you to save her."

"Thank you for your help, Gun Master."

"We're family, so let's not be formal. Qianluo is my daughter, and Hanyi is my junior sister. I should be thanking you."

Lin Bufan nodded, and without further ado, used the Dragon God Technique to transform into a dragon and depart.

After flying for a while, they did not see Sikong Changfeng following them.

Even if you're looking for a suitable weapon, you don't need to spend this long.

Even though he had traveled a great distance from Snowmoon City, Sikong Changfeng's aura still lingered within the city.

Suddenly, a terrifying sword aura shot into the sky from the direction of Snow Moon City, a pillar of light hundreds of feet high.

It does not belong to Yin Luoxia, nor to any of the elders of Snow Moon City, nor to Sikong Changfeng.

In the next instant, Sikong Changfeng's spear energy also soared into the sky, entangled with the sword energy, seemingly engaged in a battle.

There are skilled opponents, formidable enemies.

When did you infiltrate Snowmoon City?

Sikong Changfeng is entangled with this person, and it seems he won't be able to resolve the battle anytime soon.

Are they from the Dark River, or experts from the Tianqi City court?

The Five Great Supervisors, or the Imperial Preceptor Qi Tianchen?

His combat strength at the Half-Step Divine Travel stage is in no way inferior to Sima Changfeng's.

However, Sima Changfeng is a veteran of countless battles; he even managed to carve out a place for himself in the Outer Heavens, so he should be able to handle this kind of situation.

After a moment's thought, Lin Bufan decided to leave the battlefield to Sikong Changfeng, Yin Luoxia, and the others, while he went alone to rescue Li Hanyi and the others.

Three days later, on the way between Snow Moon City and Lei Family Fortress, Lin Bufan ran wildly and finally saw a familiar figure—Sikong Qianluo.

Sikong Qianluo was all alone here, looking disheveled and miserable, being toyed with by a vicious and seductive woman.

This woman is no ordinary person; she possesses cultivation at the ninth level of the Heavenly Realm.

In terms of status and position, she is on par with Xie Qidao, Old Master Tang, and Su Muyu.

She is none other than the matriarch of the Mu family—Mu Yumo.

Sikong Qianluo had recently entered the Earth Realm, and there was a considerable gap between her and Mu Yumo in a fight.

Therefore, Mu Yumo was not in a hurry to kill her, but instead played with her for amusement like a cat playing with a mouse.

"Miss Qianluo, your marksmanship is far inferior to your father's, hehehe..."

"You vicious woman, if you have the guts, fight me fair and square. What do you mean by throwing ice shards and spider silk at me?"

"Hehehe, among the twelve assassins, I am the spider, so of course I will use the Thousand Spider Hand to deal with you. As for the ice shards, that is called the Illusionary Ice Palm."

"I don't care what kind of palm strike you take, I'll stab you with my spear as many times as you come, heh~ ya~"

Sikong Qianluo thrust her spear at Mu Yumo, but missed. Instead, she was trapped by the opponent's spider silk, which bound her spear and limbs, causing her to stumble and fall to the ground.

“A despicable woman will always try to trip you up.”

"Hehehe, what a lovely girl. Look at you, overestimating yourself."

Mu Yumo leaned down and teased Sikong Qianluo.
