At this mont, Xu Fan's palm was almost on top of Wang Chong's head. The terrifying spiritual power had already made Wang Chong's scalp go bald!
Whoosh!
Everyone breathed a long sigh of relief as they watched this scene.
This palm strike concerned the lives of Elder Niu and Elder Liu. Seeing that Xu Fan's strike did not land, they naturally breathed a sigh of relief.
anwhile, the surrounding crowd was intimidated by Xu Fan's strike and involuntarily substituted themselves into the scene. Now that they saw Xu Fan stop his hand, they all felt like they had taken a trip to the Ghost Gate Pass.
After letting out a sigh of relief, everyone turned their attention to the direction from which the sound just now had co.
Earlier, Elder Niu and Elder Liu had been humbled to the extre, almost to the point of kneeling to beg Xu Fan to stop, yet Xu Fan showed no sign of rcy.
Who was it that, with just a few light words, made Xu Fan halt his inevitable palm strike?
The door was gently pushed open, and a graceful figure appeared before everyone's eyes, standing elegantly. It was Song Ling'er!
In fact, Xu Fan had no real intention of killing Wang Chong. If Xu Fan truly wanted to kill, Wang Chong would have died countless tis by now!
With Elder Liu's defeat, Xu Fan seed to have the upper hand, but in reality, he was in an exceedingly awkward situation. If Xu Fan were alone, he naturally wouldn't fear the threat of Pill Divine Valley. However, Song Ling'er was planning to join Pill Divine Valley.
Xu Fan was once in a perilous situation, and Song Ling'er risked her life to stand up for him. How could Xu Fan let Song Ling'er fall into danger?
If the other party recognized this point, they could have Xu Fan completely at their rcy!
Elder Liu and Elder Niu, with their shrewdness, were bound to consider this. So, Xu Fan deliberately displayed his strong side, allowing Song Ling'er to co forward at the crucial mont and resolve the predicant.
"Ling'er! Please, persuade Master Xu. Young Master Wang Chong is the envoy of this Pill Divine Valley entry. If sothing happens to him, it will surely cause a huge commotion at Pill Divine Valley!"
Elder Niu ca to his senses and hurriedly pleaded with Song Ling'er.
Xu Fan hated being threatened the most, being pliable but not yielding to force, and it was only Song Ling'er's persuasion that would be effective. Thus, Elder Liu and Elder Niu quickly turned their persuasive efforts towards Song Ling'er, speaking earnestly.
"I understand."
Song Ling'er nodded, turned her head slightly coldly, and looked at Xu Fan.
"Brother Xu, let Young Master Wang Chong go. He holds a noble position and cannot afford any mishaps."
Everyone was stunned upon hearing Song Linger's sowhat cold words.
Wasn't Song Ling'er and Xu Fan's relationship quite close? During the competition, Song Ling'er even risked her life to protect Xu Fan. Why was her attitude towards Xu Fan so cold today?
Elder Niu and Elder Liu were even more baffled. They only knew that Song Ling'er had a relationship with Xu Fan, but they didn't know what kind of relationship it was.
"Heh, let him go? Why should I let him go?"
"Song Ling'er, are you worried about your future, so you stepped in to diate?"
Even more baffling to Elder Niu and Elder Liu was that Xu Fan also had a cold expression at this mont.
What happened? Did the two have so unpleasant dispute earlier? How could Xu Fan show no regard for Song Ling'er, who had saved his life?
"Xu Fan! I call you Brother Xu because you once helped with points, but don't push it too far!"
"That's right! I want to diate! Have you ever considered my feelings when you offended Young Master Wang Chong?"
Song Ling'er's words made Elder Liu and Elder Niu suddenly realize that the relationship between Xu Fan and Song Ling'er was not unbreakable. Ling'er's actions during the competition were just repaying a debt of gratitude.
Now, with Wang Chong's unfortunate situation threatening Ling'er's future, their relationship irrevocably crumbled.
But even though they understood it, their hearts were filled with dread, fearing that Xu Fan, in anger, would cause a bloody scene.
"Ling'er! This isn't Master Xu's fault. Young Master Wang Chong accidentally offended Master Xu, which is why he is angry."
Instead of calming down, the atmosphere only grew tenser with Song Ling'er's appearance, much to everyone's surprise. Thus, Elder Niu and Elder Liu had to step in once more, continuing their earnest attempts to persuade.
This ti, however, there were two people they needed to persuade.
"Haha, after you join Pill Divine Valley, you no longer consider . Now, did you hear that? It was your Pill Divine Valley's Young Master Wang Chong who offended , resulting in the current situation."
Xu Fan sneered at Song Ling'er, but "inadvertently" revealed the "true reason" for their fallout: Song Ling'er's identity had risen significantly after joining Pill Divine Valley, and she no longer regarded Xu Fan as important.
Elder Liu and Elder Niu felt a tightness in their chests and quickly began to persuade, "Master Xu, Ling'er was just speaking in anger. Please, pay it no mind!"
"Yes, Master Xu, Ling'er always regards you as her true elder brother! She was rely speaking out of anger!"
However, both Song Ling'er and Xu Fan's faces remained icy, unmoved in the slightest.
"Ling'er, this is your fault. You shouldn't show such an attitude towards Master Xu. Quickly, apologize to him."
Elder Niu, feeling a persistent headache, had no alternative but to wink secretly at Song Ling'er and persuade her to apologize to Xu Fan.
Elder Niu's winking ant to reassure Song Ling'er that Xu Fan was rely indulging temporarily and that after joining Pill Divine Valley, Xu Fan would be insignificant.
However, everyone's future now lay in Xu Fan's hands, and at this mont, submitting to Xu Fan was crucial. As long as they saved Young Master Wang Chong, everything would turn out fine, while soone would eventually deal with Xu Fan.
Now, after Xu Fan and Song Ling'er "inadvertently" ntioned it, Elder Niu and Elder Liu were entirely convinced of their relationship's rupture.
Song Ling'er quickly "understood" the aning in Elder Niu's eyes and reluctantly addressed Xu Fan, "This matter is indeed my fault, but I have a life-saving grace towards you, so let Young Master Wang Chong go!"
Song Ling'er's words sent Elder Niu and Elder Liu's hearts into their throats.
Lady, this isn't the way to submit!
Watching the shadowy face of Xu Fan, both of them held their breaths, not daring to make a single sound that might affect Xu Fan's decision.
"Heh."
Finally, Xu Fan sneered, his spiritual power surged, and with a light flick, a sleeve had fallen to the ground.
"Song Ling'er, since you insist, I can spare Wang Chong's life!"
"But although the death penalty is waived, the living penalty is unavoidable! And between you and , today, with this sleeve, our past relationship is entirely severed!"
