I was careless.
Duan Weijun had just told Ning Fan his guess.
Before he said it, Ning Fan had already thought of it.
After arriving in Shangcheng, Ning Fan did undergo some changes.
When the pressure of survival suddenly decreases, everyone will instinctively become lazy.
Ning Fan is the same.
This comfortable and stable living environment, coupled with his own extraordinary strength, means that when he faces many things, he no longer has to think over and over again like before.
He now even began to understand why the people in the upper city had such personalities.
It's so comfortable.
Compared to the harsh conditions in the lower city, the upper city is like a greenhouse.
There was no fighting and no conflict.
No wonder, they are not interested in weapons, but more interested in improvement itself.
Exercising yourself may help you live longer.
But weapons cannot.
As for the improvement in combat...
That was just incidental.
Ning Fan admitted that even though Xu Jiang had told him some things about Shangcheng before, he still didn't understand this land.
There are many things that you need to see for yourself.
At the same time, after Ning Fan obtained the power of Wuxiang and dispelled the strange beast...
Inflated.
He really thought that he and his team could easily defeat these timid lords of the upper city.
Apart from Diancheng, it is difficult for him to pay attention to other places.
How similar is this situation to the opponent who was once plotted to death by Ning Fan?
Ning Fan had used his opponent's arrogance and hubris to defeat the strong with the weak many times.
But now, he has become this kind of person.
This undoubtedly sounded a wake-up call for him.
After realizing his problem, Ning Fan quickly forced himself to calm down.
We have experienced all kinds of storms.
Since a mistake has been made, the only thing we need to consider now is to correct it in the fastest and most effective way.
For Ning Fan, it is not difficult to grasp the opponent's thoughts.
It's nothing more than weaving a net and letting them fall into it.
As Ning Fan leads his team deeper and deeper, more and more enemies will appear behind them.
When a certain number of them accumulates, the opponent will show its fangs.
Therefore, Ning Fan knew that it would be inappropriate to continue moving forward or to retreat immediately.
At the same time, he also believed that these two options should be within the other party's plan.
That Liang Jianbai from Qinglai City...
His fear was not feigned.
No one will use his own life to prove his loyalty.
Especially people from the upper city.
Therefore, he was also afraid that Ning Fan would attack his Qinglai City.
Ning Fan didn't know Shangcheng very well, and conversely, the people of Shangcheng couldn't possibly understand Ning Fan's style of doing things.
The person behind the scenes might not be sure that Ning Fan wouldn't kill his way through.
Therefore, the current situation is the best, at least for the kings of the cities he passed through.
Ning Fan didn't touch them, but they were able to unite in a few days and make contributions to Diancheng!
The team continued to move forward, and Ning Fan had no intention of stopping.
Even though he knew that continuing to move forward might not be a good idea, stopping before he could think of a way to break the deadlock would affect the morale of the troops.
In fact, Ning Fan was not completely without ideas, he was just still considering whether there might be a better way.
But at this moment, Xu Jiang called.
Without answering the call, Ning Fan knew that Xu Jiang must have received the message.
"Master Xu."
Ning Fan answered the call easily: "Who is the call?"
When Mr. Xu heard this, a smile appeared on his originally serious face.
"According to your estimation, where should I be?"
"Yu Fengcheng?"
Ning Fan asked tentatively.
"That's a pretty good guess."
Xu Jiang smiled.
"Duan Weijun calculated it. I can't figure this out as well as he can."
Ning Fan replied modestly.
Xu Jiang was silent for a moment.
Finally, his tone returned to seriousness: "That's unnecessary."
After a moment's silence, he continued, "I'm going to die, there's no need for you to get yourself involved."
"Master Xu, you've already said that you're going to die. If I don't stop you, Da Ben will scold me for the rest of my life, right?"
Ning Fan said seriously, "To Da Ben, your life is more important than anything else."
When Xu Ben was mentioned, Xu Jiang's mood changed obviously.
"Go back."
Xu Jiang sighed: "With your current strength, you can't take down the top city."
“Well, I think it’s difficult.”
Ning Fan said softly, "But I'm not going there to attack Diancheng this time."
"I know you came here to support me."
In fact, Xu Jiang was also very conflicted at this time.
Ning Fan brought so many people directly across the Scimitar Ridge to support him, which would move anyone.
All the efforts over the years are worth it.
However, he didn't want Ning Fan to do that.
He could imagine that because of his willfulness and impulsiveness, Ning Fan would suffer heavy losses.
"Ning Fan, let me tell you the truth."
Xu Jiang let out a long breath. "I sent troops to Diancheng this time, a big part of the reason was out of anger. I admit that."
"But, when you came to Upper City, I actually already had this plan."
Ning Fan was slightly startled.
He knew that Xu Jiang must have experienced something that caused him to suddenly lead the [Qiu Camp] to attack Diancheng.
But Ning Fan never expected that Xu Jiang had this idea when they arrived in Shangcheng.
And I can't think of the reason.
"I've waited enough."
Xu Jiang seemed to be smiling.
He just smiled a little sadly: "For more than thirty years, I have been waiting."
“I’ve always been afraid to take that step.”
"Ever since I established the [Revenge Camp], my goal has been to avenge myself on Diancheng. However, I know better than anyone that I cannot avenge myself."
"A while ago, you told me that with our current strength, we might not be able to overthrow Summit City. I knew this truth before you did."
"I just don't want to admit it."
"Because once I admit it, it means I'll have to wait for who knows how long."
"Ning Fan, if I wait any longer, I'm afraid..."
"I'd be even more courageous."
Xu Jiang's voice became a little hoarse: "Hatred will not disappear, but it will be diluted."
"It was you who took Xu Ben away that year that made me decide to return to Shangcheng."
"And now, it's you who have come up here that gave me the courage to fight for the summit."
"I know I'm no match for Diancheng. I might not even be able to reach the gate of Diancheng."
"Someone over in Diancheng did something I couldn't stand."
"If I could even endure this..."
"Then I will really lose the courage to face them forever."
