Think about how many strange things you and Fatty Wang went through together, starting from Ward 44.
Although Fatty Wang can be unreliable at times, and I sometimes tease him like a prank, the two of us are so close that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say we'd risk our lives for each other.
Now, watching helplessly as Fatty Wang was taken away by the Huang family, Xu Fan felt an unprecedented level of hatred.
Just then, several figures suddenly appeared in front of Xu Fan.
The middle-aged man in the lead chuckled:
"Hehe, your opponent is us."
After a quick glance, Xu Fan already had a good idea of the strength of the group in front of him.
Xu Fan spoke coldly:
"Those who block my way, die!"
After speaking, Xu Fan looked at the car that had already started and walked forward slowly.
The middle-aged man at the head of the group was already enraged. Thinking back on all these years, although they had not joined an organization like the Night's Watch...
But with their extraordinary skills and the power gained during the upheaval, they all made a fortune and were called "big shots" wherever they went.
But Xu Fan, a mere young man, didn't take them seriously at all.
This made the middle-aged man feel deeply insulted, and he waved his hand forcefully:
"Brothers, let's go!"
Xu Fan didn't even bother to glance at them, and directly reached out and drew the Demon-Subduing Sword, swinging it forcefully.
Although it was just a casual wave of Xu Fan's hand, with the enhancement of a divine artifact like the Demon-Subduing Sword, the power of this sword was by no means small.
Wherever the sword's edge touched, the pupils of the several people gradually dilated, and they could not believe until their dying breath that they could not even withstand a single sword strike from Xu Fan.
Xu Fan moved quickly, gradually closing the distance between himself and the car.
Just when it seemed there was hope of rescuing Fatty Wang, Xu Fan frowned.
Before them lay darkness, concealing several low-level monsters and assassins.
With Wang Pangzi on his mind, Xu Fan naturally didn't want to waste any more time with these people, and most of the time he would just swing his sword and be done with it.
If you encounter some strange creatures with special methods, it's just a matter of swinging your sword one more time.
Although these people didn't cause Xu Fan much trouble, their sheer number still slowed him down.
Fortunately, Xu Fan was fast enough that, despite encountering several ambushes, he maintained a distance that was neither too close nor too far from the car, just within his sight.
However, after encountering ambushes more than a dozen times, Xu Fan suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He turned around and could see several hideous sword marks left by the Demon-Subduing Sword in the distance.
Although there have been many times in the past when facing various strange situations, I have gone on a killing spree and killed all the enemies, it is rare for me to be so preoccupied with killing as I am now.
Although Xu Fan was anxious because of his good relationship with Fatty Wang, this situation had never happened before.
"I'm being affected by other people's emotions!"
A moment of clarity flashed through Xu Fan's mind, and a few drops of sweat suddenly trickled down his forehead.
Back then, he and Fatty Wang witnessed firsthand how Huang Lintian was brainwashed.
Thinking about my current situation, it must be part of their scheme, right?
Thinking about it this way, when Fatty Wang saw me, the words he blurted out were probably telling me to leave.
"These people really have some ideas."
Xu Fan suddenly stopped, and his true energy scattered in all directions like a tide.
At the same time, Xu Fan also activated the system's search function.
...
The basement beneath a building on the street.
A figure with tightly closed eyes suddenly opened them.
Standing in front of him was the old man who was clearly blocking Xu Fan with a golden pheasant.
"It's done?"
The old man with open eyes had a goatee, which swayed as he shook his head.
"This kid looks young, but he's quite cunning. He actually woke up before he succumbed to his bloodlust."
The old man in the coarse cloth robe sneered, "So it seems your methods are nothing special after all?"
From the moment the old man in the long gown appeared, their purpose was not to stop Xu Fan, but to cause a change in Xu Fan's emotions.
Sure enough, Xu Fan's emotions became extremely volatile in a short period of time after being tricked by the old man in the long gown and then witnessing Wang Pangzi being arrested.
Then they used several waves of assassins to stop Xu Fan, who was already impatient at this point, and sure enough, Xu Fan went on a killing spree.
Everything was proceeding as planned, but who could have imagined that Xu Fan would wake up at the most crucial moment?
The old man with the goatee, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, looked somewhat listless, but after a moment, his expression suddenly changed.
"Something's spying on us, let's go!"
Seeing that the old man in the long robe remained unmoved, the man with the goatee said anxiously:
“Come on, there’s a laboratory nearby that he can’t detect. Once we get there, I’ll give you the stuff.”
Although the old man in the long gown was reluctant, he was still somewhat tempted when he heard the man with the goatee mention that thing.
"Don't worry, with the pheasant here, he definitely won't find any clues."
The goatee's tone left no room for argument: "Come on, you've fought that kid before, you should know better than me how mysterious and unpredictable his methods are."
"If he finds out, I'm afraid it will be a fight to the death today."
Thinking back to their previous encounter, Xu Fan's sword strike was actually on par with his most prized technique. If Xu Fan had truly discovered their location, they would probably be severely injured even if they didn't die today.
Thinking this, the old man in the long gown still followed behind the old man with the goatee.
After quite a while, the two finally arrived at the laboratory.
The old man with the goatee let out a long sigh of relief, as if he had returned home.
The old man in the long robe asked coldly:
"I've brought you here. When are you going to give me my things?"
The man with the goatee sighed, "Brother, as you know, the Huang family is facing a major crisis right now. If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to withstand it."
The old man in the long robe said coldly, "The condition we agreed on was that you would give me the item if I made a move once. This is something outside of that agreement."
“I don’t want to get involved in your feud with that little guy. I just want my payment right now.”
Give me the thing!
The old man with the goatee smiled curiously: "Things? What things?"
“Look carefully, this is our Lord’s place.”
The old man in the long gown roared, "You want to go back on your word?"
The old man with the goatee chuckled: "Now that we're already here, even if we change our minds, what can you do about it?"
As he spoke, he beckoned to the pheasant, which obediently walked to the old man with the goatee and nuzzled against him affectionately.
