"Brother Xu, what happened?"
Looking at Xu Fan, who suddenly turned around and returned, Huang Dong greeted him with a warm smile, as if they were close friends to an outsider.
Everyone else displayed expressions of tension. Whether Xu Fan had sensed danger or intended to confront Huang Dong, it was no small matter for the group.
Moreover, what made everyone feel a bit uneasy was that Xu Fan's expression was sowhat grave!
Ever since they first laid eyes on Xu Fan, he had always maintained an utterly calm and composed deanor, even when being pursued by exotic beasts, criticized by the group, or targeted by Huang Dong.
But now, Xu Fan's expression had changed.
Even the most oblivious person could sense that sothing was amiss! Perhaps, sothing big was about to happen!
However, Xu Fan's words brought a slight sense of relief to everyone.
"For so reason, I must leave the team for a while. Take care, everyone!"
Hearing these words, everyone breathed a quiet sigh of relief. From Xu Fan's tone, it seed sothing had indeed happened, but it was a personal matter.
This was undoubtedly not the worst scenario.
However, upon hearing Xu Fan's words, the affable smile on Huang Dong's face suddenly turned dark and cloudy.
Huang Dong certainly didn't believe Xu Fan possessed any strong perception. He simply thought that as they ventured deeper into the ruins, Xu Fan could no longer bear it and wanted to run away.
Could soone Huang Dong wanted to kill still manage to escape?
"Brother Xu, you're a mber of my Huang Dong's team. If sothing's happened, if you have any difficulties, you can tell . We'll all help you with all our might."
"However! The ruins are full of danger, and now that we've made it this far, it's precisely when we need your keen perception. Yet you're suddenly dropping it all, disregarding the safety of the entire team!"
At this point, Huang Dong deliberately sighed and said to Xu Fan in a sinister tone, "Brother Xu, I'll give you one minute to think it over and then give an answer!"
Everyone was watching Xu Fan, and no one spoke because they all wanted to know what exactly had happened.
"I know you all want to know what's going on. Originally, I didn't intend to tell you, but since you insist on knowing, I can tell you."
Xu Fan completely ignored Huang Dong, keeping his eyes focused on the group, his expression solemn, "There are traces of exotic beasts nearby, and more than one! I plan to follow the traces and investigate."
"Exotic beasts are dangerous with unpredictable strength, so I suggest you all head in the opposite direction."
Boom!
Upon hearing this explosive news, everyone couldn't help but gasp in shock.
A single exotic beast could already slaughter them, leaving them utterly defeated with heavy casualties! Now, suddenly, there was more than one exotic beast! If they truly collided with the group, then everyone would die without a burial place!
Even more incredible to everyone was Xu Fan's idea! Xu Fan was rely at the Entering Dao Realm Peak, yet he dared to track exotic beasts!
Everyone was so shocked by Xu Fan that they couldn't utter a word, but the silence didn't last long in the scene, as Huang Dong's angry questioning quickly broke it.
"Exotic beasts? Brother Xu, even if you're making excuses, could you at least co up with a better one?"
"To evade your duties, you use such an excuse to fob off? Do you really take everyone here for fools?!"
Huang Dong was a man of deep scheming, yet even so, seeing Xu Fan directly ignore him made him unable to suppress the anger that surged in his heart.
A re Entering Dao Realm ant dared to disregard him, Huang Dong?
"Heh heh."
This ti, Xu Fan didn't ignore Huang Dong but instead fixed his cold gaze on Huang Dong's sowhat ferocious face.
"If I'm lying, why don't you search the surroundings yourself and find out."
"As for whether I'm evading my duties, or fobbing off you, Huang Dong, rest assured. I told everyone about the exotic beasts to protect them. Your orders, Huang Dong, aren't worth a mission, and you, Huang Dong, aren't worthy of fobbing off!"
Xu Fan's imnsely domineering words echoed throughout the room. Everyone stood agape, eyes wide open, staring at Xu Fan as if seeing him for the first ti.
Previously, they had the privilege of seeing Xu Fan's domineering side, but they hadn't thought much of it, simply respecting Xu Fan for his foresight! But after Xu Fan said those words to Huang Dong, they realized they might have underestimated this young man.
This young man, rely at the Entering Dao Realm Peak, dared to openly challenge Huang Dong at the Vajra Realm Peak! "You, Huang Dong, aren't worthy!" What an incredibly bold statent!
However, considering what Xu Fan intended to do next, everyone felt relieved. Xu Fan planned to track more than one exotic beast! Any one of those beasts was more terrifying than Huang Dong!
Sohow, even though these words seed outrageous, when they ca from Xu Fan's mouth, everyone chose to believe them.
Crack!
Huang Dong's face was ghastly, his fists clenched tightly enough to emit a cracking sound.
Who was Huang Dong? The initiator of the grand plan's first step! Destined to be a figure to go down in history!
And who was Xu Fan? Just a country bumpkin who walked out of a base, without any backing, pathetically weak in strength!
For such an ant to dare publicly show him, Huang Dong, disrespect! For Huang Dong, there was nothing in the world more infuriating than this!
"Brother Xu, do you really think... I don't dare kill you?"
Each word was spoken slowly and hauntingly, making Huang Dong's expression even more terrifying and his aura that much more murderous!
Huang Dong truly intended to kill Xu Fan right then!
Everyone's eyes were wide open, watching the scene before them, holding their breath, not daring to make a sound.
Originally, they planned to speak up for Xu Fan, but Xu Fan's deanor disrupted their plans.
If Xu Fan were in a weaker position, and Huang Dong unreasonable, they naturally could step up and stand for justice on Xu Fan's behalf!
But now, Xu Fan seed to be in a strong position, that air of dominance as if he disregarded Huang Dong entirely! In this situation, even if they wanted to speak for Xu Fan, it was impossible.
After all, they still needed Huang Dong, even if they could oppose or offend him for Xu Fan's sake, they couldn't sever ties with Huang Dong completely!
"Heh heh, everyone, take care."
Once more, surprising everyone, Xu Fan splendidly ignored Huang Dong again, clasping his fists towards everyone before turning and walking forward with actions that were clean and decisive.
