Wang Fan sneered inwardly; how could he not know Yan Feng's little scheme?
He stepped forward and deliberately raised his voice, saying, "It seems that General Yan is seriously injured and won't wake up for a while."
“I happen to know a little about medicine. Why don’t I try to treat General Yan? I can’t guarantee that I can completely cure him, but I should be able to get him back to consciousness.”
"I've heard of a type of acupuncture that is extremely painful to administer, but can quickly awaken a person from a coma. I'm going to try it on General Yan right now."
Upon hearing this, Yan Feng's heart skipped a beat. What if Wang Fan really did perform acupuncture?
That would completely expose the feigned fainting and would also cause excruciating pain.
Left with no other choice, he slowly opened his eyes, pretending to have just woken up.
She said weakly, "Oh dear, what's wrong with me? I suddenly felt dizzy."
Wang Fan watched Yan Feng's clumsy performance but didn't point it out.
He simply said, "It's good that General Yan is alright. The competition just now should have ended there. I also hope that General Yan can understand that now, in the fight against the false god, unity is the key."
Yan Feng's face was flushed as he struggled to stand up.
He clasped his hands in a fist and bowed to Wang Fan, saying in a low voice, "Lord Wang Fan, I was wrong. I was blind to your greatness and offended you. Please forgive me, sir."
Wang Fan smiled slightly and said, "It's alright. As long as we can join hands to fight against the false god, this little episode is nothing."
Lie Yan chuckled and smoothed things over, saying, "Alright, alright, it's good that the misunderstanding is cleared up."
"Everyone, come quickly and discuss the important matter of fighting against the false god. Time is of the essence, and we can't afford to waste any more time."
Everyone nodded in agreement and quickly gathered around the map of the mainland, beginning a lively discussion.
From the possible attack routes of the false gods to the troop deployments of various forces.
From strategies for dealing with different situations, every detail was carefully considered.
Ultimately, a preliminary cooperation plan and confrontation plan were finalized through collective wisdom.
As the sun set, its afterglow streamed through the windows of the council chamber and bathed everyone in its light.
The others rose to take their leave, preparing to return and carry out their respective actions according to the results of the discussion.
After everyone left, Lie Yan walked apologetically to Wang Fan's side.
"Brother Wang Fan, I'm sorry you had to suffer today." Lie Yan sighed slightly, his eyes full of helplessness.
Wang Fan waved his hand and laughed, "Brother Lieyan, it's nothing. I'm just a little curious, why is Yan Feng making things so difficult for me?"
Lie Yan frowned and slowly said, "Yan Feng is backed by the Yan family, a powerful noble family in the Fire Kingdom, and the Yan family has been secretly competing with my faction."
"I strongly invite you and the people of Snow Soul Ice Nest to come and cooperate, but the Yan family naturally does not want to see my power grow stronger."
"That's why Yan Feng deliberately made things difficult for you, wanting to give you a hard time, make you look bad in front of everyone from the Land of Fire, and thus ruin our cooperation."
Wang Fan suddenly realized what was going on, and couldn't help but feel annoyed. He snorted coldly and said, "With a formidable enemy at hand, they are still resorting to these petty tricks for their own selfish interests. They are really short-sighted."
Lie Yan nodded in agreement: "Yes, the threat of the false god is imminent, and the entire continent is in imminent danger, but they still can't let go of the infighting between their families."
"But don't worry, since I have invited you here, I will do my best to protect your rights and ensure that our cooperation proceeds smoothly."
Looking into Lie Yan's determined eyes, Wang Fan's anger subsided slightly, and he said, "I naturally understand Brother Lie Yan's sincerity. However, we still need to be careful in the future to avoid being taken advantage of."
Lie Yan patted Wang Fan on the shoulder and said, "Of course, I will arrange for you and your companions to rest and recuperate in the main city. At the same time, I will also find a way to restrain the Yan family and prevent them from causing any more trouble."
"Once everyone is ready, we will discuss together how to take the initiative and give the false god a good beating."
Wang Fan looked firmly into the distance and said, "Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Lieyan."
Wang Fan exchanged a few more words with Lie Yan before taking his leave.
Watching Wang Fan's departing figure, Lie Yan turned to face the woman who had been standing quietly at the back of the council hall, his expression instantly becoming respectful.
The woman wore a magnificent yet elegant crimson robe, with delicate gold patterns embroidered on the hem, which seemed to flow with flames as she moved.
She wore a phoenix-shaped golden crown, her face was exquisitely beautiful, and her eyes exuded an innate majesty and solemnity.
"Your Highness, please forgive my rudeness." Lie Yan bowed slightly, his tone full of apology.
The princess gently shook her head, her beautiful eyes slightly furrowed, and said, "Elder Lieyan, this is not your fault."
"But the Yan family's actions are truly despicable. With a formidable enemy at hand, they dare to make such a short-sighted move for their own selfish reasons."
Lie Yan sighed helplessly and said, "The Yan family has always been trying to seize power in the Fire Kingdom. They are wary of my close relationship with Your Highness. This time, I invited Wang Fan from the Snow Soul Ice Nest to cooperate, and they wanted to sabotage our plans."
The princess looked grave, pacing back and forth. After a moment, she said, "The threat of the false gods is like a sword hanging over our heads. The entire continent is in grave danger. We cannot allow them to act so recklessly."
"Go and tell the Yan family that if they dare to act recklessly again, this princess will not let them off easily."
Lie Yan quickly replied, "Yes, Your Highness."
"However, the Yan family is deeply rooted and has extensive connections in the Land of Fire. To completely restrain them, we need to plan carefully."
