The old immortal and Huang Wandi were locked in a fierce battle in the sky. Although the old immortal seed to have a considerable advantage, Huang Wandi was clearly fighting desperately, and the old immortal couldn't break free for the ti being.
anwhile, Xu Fan, with less than ten percent of his spiritual power left, faced the ferocious onslaught of the mbers of the Huang Family, feeling utterly hopeless.
However, at this mont, a sudden burst of laughter echoed inside the Huang Family's great hall, "Isn't the Huang Family welcoming to us old friends? Even if we aren't welco, there's no need to attack the younger generation, is there?"
Three figures appeared together, each exuding imnsely strong spiritual power fluctuations.
Xu Fan was taken aback again, "Godmother? And Senior Liu? Why are you all here too?"
The three figures were the couple Qu Liu and Xu Fan's godmother, along with Gongsun Qin's ntor, an old nun.
Qu Liu's godmother looked at the blood-stained Xu Fan with so heartache, "Silly child, how could you not tell us about such a big event? If soone hadn't sent us the ssage, wouldn't you feel bad for your godmother if sothing happened to you?"
The usually critical Senior Liu looked at Xu Fan with eyes full of admiration, "Good boy! You've got guts!"
Xu Fan was at a loss, not knowing whether to laugh or cry at their different remarks.
anwhile, the mbers of the Huang Family standing by, gazed at the three figures, faces shifting in color, "Qu Ying? Liu Rufeng? Zhao Jie? Why have you co? Our Huang Family doesn't welco you! Leave!"
Qu Liu stared directly at Huang Quan, her eyes blazing with anger, "As Yanran's friends, why can't we co? In contrast, your Huang Family forced Yanran to her death back then and even pinned the bla on Nantian, and now you are attacking the younger generation! You bring sha to the Hidden World Families!"
Always hot-tempered Senior Liu burst out, "Why waste words with them? Just kill the bastards!"
The old nun known as Zhao Jie also stepped forward, chanting the Buddha's na and saying "Amitabha," yet anger flashed in her eyes too.
All three were mighty at the peak of the Vajra Realm!
The faces of the Huang Family mbers turned imnsely grim, while Huang Quan and Huang Quan were seemingly provoked by Qu Liu's words, sneering coldly, "Did we, the Huang Family, force our own gifted daughter to her death? It was Li Nantian who relentlessly pursued her, causing the death of our treasured daughter!"
"If it weren't for Li Nantian causing Yanran's death, our Huang Family would have long been top-tier within the Hidden World Families! Why else would we have to leave our ho and co to a place like this?"
Qu Liu's grin was one of extre anger, "You claim that Nantian caused Yanran's death, and although Nantian has kept silent over the years, so have finally understood the truth! If no one had told us, we would still be in the dark about why Yanran died."
Liu Rufeng had already drawn his curved blade, "You in the Huang Family fully well know why Yanran died, yet you shalessly attribute everything to others."
"This kind of attitude is truly unbearable."
Zhao Jie shook her head, sighing, "Both are Huang Family mbers, yet compared to them, Yanran was truly worlds apart."
Huang Quan's face turned ashen, "In Yanran's honor, we refrained from direct action against you, yet you show no appreciation for such gestures."
"There's no need for more words. Since you refuse to leave, don't bla us for being rude!"
"Attack!"
Spiritual power surged around several bodies, and in an instant, they clashed.
Within the Huang Family, though they had six Vajra Realm powerhouses, due to the lack of a domain, they posed no threat against the peak realm experts who possessed domains.
Although Huang Quan and Huang Quan cooperated seamlessly, combining their domains, they struggled to fend off Qu Liu's group of three, falling into a disadvantaged state.
With his spiritual power exhausted, Xu Fan realized he couldn't be of much help. He moved beside the chanical Warrior, swiftly replenishing his spiritual power with the aid of the Cold Essence.
From the interactions between the old immortal and Huang Wandi, combined with the conversations between Qu Liu's group and the Huang Family mbers, Xu Fan roughly understood the relationships among them.
Years ago, a prodigious daughter nad Yanran appeared in the Huang Family, who had a relationship with the old immortal and was a friend to Qu Liu's trio. Clearly, the Huang Family disapproved of this bond. Later, for so reasons, the prodigious daughter fell, driven forcefully to her death, a shocking ending.
Evidently, the old immortal couldn't co to terms with it, having vanished for years to train Xu Fan. Without explanation from the old immortal, Qu Liu's group developed a grudge against him, severing contact over the years. Yet, upon eting Xu Fan, upon learning he was the old immortal's apprentice, they found it hard to trouble him, not willing to really make things difficult for him. Qu Liu passed on Gu Art to him, and the old nun entrusted her disciple to him.
There was one point, however, that made Xu Fan furious.
Xu Fan hadn't inford anyone about coming to Arica; the old immortal ca here because he had heard of him making it onto the Earth List, yet from what Qu Liu said, Xu Fan gleaned that things weren't that simple.
Soone had spread the news of Xu Fan coming to the Huang Family, precisely reaching these few people while unraveling the old immortal's and Qu Liu's knots, clarifying past grudges.
To that person, Xu Fan should feel grateful, yet he only felt a bitter chill.
Because that person must, and could only, be Xia Hengzhou! Xia Xiaodie's father!
Previously, during Xu Fan's fierce fight with Baron Nash, Xia Hengzhou suddenly appeared, and Xu Fan sensed sothing was off but didn't think much of it.
It's only now that Xu Fan realized that this was all strategically orchestrated by Xia Hengzhou! Xu Fan, Xiaodie's fate, even the old immortal and others were rely pieces in Xia Hengzhou's ga!
Why exactly is Xia Hengzhou willing to use even his own daughter as a pawn?
Xu Fan's prior situation was one of great peril, making him fully aware that within Xia Hengzhou's plan, neither his nor Xiaodie's life mattered. As long as Xiaodie was around, Xu Fan would co to the Huang Family, and with him, the old immortal's group.
Regardless of whether he lived or died, the confrontation between the old immortal and the Huang Family was destined to happen.
Moreover, today at this wedding, it was packed with cultivators from around the world, each backed by incredibly mighty forces.
Thus, the answer erged, Xia Hengzhou intended to utilize these people to sway the trajectory of the entire world of cultivators!
