"Young man, I've seen more roads than you've eaten salt."
The businessman, whose argument was refuted, quickly launched a counterattack: "In this world, there are only wrong names, not wrong nicknames."
If Li Fan, the Overlord Blade, is not Long Daoji's younger brother, why would Tingfeng Tower change Li Fan's nickname from "One-Sword Master" to "Overlord Blade"?
Keep in mind that Li Fan was only just beginning to show his talent at that time.
"That's right! How come I didn't think of that?"
"Old Zhang is right."
Everyone around suddenly realized what was going on.
"Long Daoji is over a hundred years old, while Li Fan is not yet thirty."
Even if they wanted to be brothers, their mother couldn't allow it!
Li Fan spoke again.
The situation reversed instantly, and the smile on Old Zhang's face froze.
The merchants who had been praising him suddenly realized, "That's right, how come I didn't think of that!"
"Old Zhang is talking complete nonsense!"
"Brothers of Time, how can there be a difference of more than seventy years!"
"Hmph, who said they have the same mother?"
Old Zhang was in an awkward position.
Although he realized at this point that his guess was not rigorous, the atmosphere had already reached this point, and it was impossible to back down to a young man. "It can't be that Father Long, an old tree, has sprouted new branches and leaves!"
"Talk is talk, jokes are jokes, but don't make fun of other people's parents."
If you spread rumors again, you'll be arrested!
Li Fan shook his head, somewhat unwilling to continue this topic.
Otherwise, who knows what other rumors might circulate today.
"Spreading rumors?"
You know nothing! I'm telling the truth!
Li Fan's concession only made Lao Zhang more smug.
His words became increasingly harsh.
In the end, he even started making up stories about Li Fan's past.
What?! I was kicked out of my house.
What do you mean by being orphaned and destitute from a young age, growing up relying on the charity of others?
What about enduring humiliation and bearing heavy burdens?
And you know what? He actually managed to smooth things over.
It's a closed loop, so it can be considered to have no loopholes.
If Li Fan himself weren't here, the rumors might actually have spread.
"Sir, that's too much!"
As he spoke, Li Fan had already placed one hand on Lao Zhang's shoulder.
Old Zhang was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter: "You're Li Fan? I'm Li Fan's father!"
Young man, I advise you to think carefully before you act.
Release them immediately, or you'll be in big trouble.
"Let me tell you, my brother-in-law is the third captain of the Qingyu Hall of the Duantian Sect."
"You talk too much nonsense!"
With a single exertion, Li Fan caused the merchant to vanish from his seat.
Thump!
The sound of water splashing came from the side of the ship.
"Oh no! Someone has fallen into the water!"
"Quickly, save them!"
The traveling merchant, Lao Zhang, was quickly rescued.
He glared at Li Fan but didn't retaliate immediately.
Other merchants, naturally, kept to themselves as it was none of their business.
......
Time passed quickly, and three days later it arrived.
Once the ship docks, it will arrive at the transit wharf outside Tianqing City.
The dock was large, but somewhat empty.
The reason for this is that there are many figures standing on the dock.
These people were all dressed in close-fitting short-sleeved clothing and carried two short halberds on their backs.
The words "Broken Sky" were printed on the chest of their clothes, indicating their identities.
These people were members of the Broken Heaven Sect.
In the distance, ships are entering the dock.
Why is the dock so deserted?
"I don't know!"
Are those people laborers unloading cargo?
"Are you blind? Those people are all carrying weapons, how could they be laborers!"
"Is the Sanhe Society going to war with the Liuxiong Hall?"
"I don't know!"
"We're doomed, the ship might even be sunk!"
"What are you panicking for? With me here, those damn Sanhe Society and Liuxiong Hall will all have to give way!"
Unlike the panic of the other merchants, Old Zhang, a merchant, said confidently, "My brother-in-law is the third captain of the Qingyu Hall of the Duantian Sect. Just wait and see when I announce my number!"
As the ship drew closer, Old Zhang smiled.
Those people were not from the Sanhe Society or the Liuxiong Hall at all.
Those were clearly elites from the Broken Heaven Sect.
And most importantly, he saw a familiar figure – his brother-in-law.
Once the ship docked, Old Zhang waved and called out, "Da Ming, I'm here!"
Fang Daming, who was on guard duty, looked up and saw his brother-in-law there.
But at this moment, his gaze was not on his brother-in-law, but on the side of the ship.
A figure descended from the wooden ladder.
He wore a green robe, carried a sword, and had a cold and stern face.
It's him, no doubt about it!
He's practically worn out Li Fan's portrait these past few days.
He remembered not only himself, but also the wolf beside him and the details of his sword.
Fang Daming was certain that this was the person he had been waiting for.
Li Fan, the Overlord Blade!
Welcoming Li Fan is a hot potato.
Inside the Broken Heaven Gate, almost no one dared to accept the challenge.
Fang Daming accepted this task because he wanted to take a gamble.
I bet a top expert like Li Fan wouldn't bother with a nobody like him.
If you win the bet, you'll rise rapidly through the ranks within the sect.
I lost the bet... No, I won't lose!
Thinking of this, Fang Daming immediately jogged forward.
Just as he was about to speak, Old Zhang on the ship's side said, "Da Ming, get that kid..."
Old Zhang's voice abruptly stopped.
A scabbard flew over and knocked him unconscious.
Fang Daming breathed a sigh of relief!
As soon as Old Zhang opened his mouth, Fang Daming realized something was wrong.
When he saw Lao Zhang pointing at Li Fan, Fang Daming made a decisive move.
If this idiot were to finish speaking, not only would his good-for-nothing brother-in-law disappear the next day, but his whole family might also vanish.
Having done all this, Fang Daming had already come to Li Fan's side.
"Fang Daming of the Broken Heaven Sect respectfully welcomes Alliance Leader Li."
After saying that, he knelt down on one knee with his luggage.
At the same time, all the disciples of the Broken Heaven Sect knelt down on the entire dock.
"The Broken Heaven Gate warmly welcomes Alliance Leader Li!"
The unified sound echoed across the dock, leaving everyone on the ship stunned.
The carriage arrived and stopped in front of Li Fan.
Fang Daming finally felt relieved after Li Fan sat down.
You made the right bet!
......
Old Zhang only woke up groggily after the Duan Tianmen group left.
"Who the hell hit me? My brother-in-law is from the Broken Heaven Sect..."
"Old Zhang, just shut up!"
Do you know you almost died?
His friends quickly stopped him.
"Dead? How could that be? My brother-in-law..."
Old Zhang was still somewhat unconvinced.
"Don't even mention your brother-in-law!"
Old Li interrupted, "The one who knocked you out was none other than your brother-in-law."
Do you know who the young man who threw you into the water was?
"Who he is and what can he do about it? This is Qingzhou, the territory of the Broken Heaven Sect. My brother-in-law..."
"Li Fan, the Overlord Blade!"
This time, Old Li only said four words.
Old Zhang stood there, stunned and speechless.
After a long silence, he asked tentatively in a low voice, "He...he really is...the ...
"Your brother-in-law led about a hundred men to kneel down and respectfully escort the person away. Do you think he's not the Tyrant Blade Li Fan?"
"My goodness!"
Old Zhang let out a strange cry, his eyes rolled back, his limbs stiffened, and he fell backward.
On the deck, another flurry of activity ensued.
The group of merchants quickly carried him away.
