Running away blindly isn't an option, nor can there be hope in hiding. Xu Fan is left with only one choice—to rely on another force to counteract the power of that sword!
What does that an, another force?
Of course, it ans a sufficiently powerful force... The Six Gods!
In fact, Xu Fan doesn't want to involve the Six Gods in his battle with the Taoists, but the current situation has long exceeded Xu Fan's personal preferences; decisions must be made rationally!
Rationally, in this crisis, only the Six Gods can resolve it!
The Hidden World Families have been largely annihilated by Xu Fan. Families like the Luo and Lan, although still existing, seem sowhat inadequate to face this Flying Sword.
Xu Fan believes that families like the Luo and Lan possess unknown, extrely powerful hidden cards, but compared to the Taoists, they are still not strong enough!
Moreover, Xu Fan genuinely does not want to bring trouble to the Hidden World Families. Huaxia has only a few such families, and today, Xu Fan has already wiped out the vast majority. If a few more were wiped out, the title of Hidden World Families could beco history.
Hence, Xu Fan is left with two options.
One is the Buddhist Sect, and the other is the Six Gods.
Among the Buddhist Sect, although there is the Buddha Pu Xian overseeing, Xu Fan is unsure if a strong person in the Kai Yang Realm can withstand the sword. If Pu Xian were severely injured or killed, the Buddhist Sect would certainly be overtaken by the Taoists!
This is not what Xu Fan wants to see.
Although Xu Fan got the role of host quite casually, he wouldn't drag the entire Buddhist Sect into the water for his own life.
By the thod of elimination, it can be seen that the Six Gods are Xu Fan's only option.
Without hesitation, Xu Fan frantically fled while dialing Azure Dragon's phone number. Upon leaving the Six Gods' base, Azure Dragon had implored Xu Fan to rember his contact information, promising that no matter when Xu Fan encountered a crisis, the Six Gods would do their utmost to save him.
No one anticipated that no sooner had Xu Fan left the Six Gods' base than Azure Dragon would need to fulfill his promise to Xu Fan.
"Hello? Who is it?"
The call rang for a long ti before it was answered. Azure Dragon's voice carried so impatience. Xu Fan had caused a commotion at the Six Gods' base and walked away, leaving a devastated Yan Que. Naturally, Azure Dragon was the one who suffered.
Having just managed to calm Yan Que, Azure Dragon felt more exhausted than after a fierce battle. Just as he lay down, Xu Fan's call woke him up again.
"Senior Azure Dragon, it's , Xu Fan."
Xu Fan tried hard to use a bit of spiritual power to protect the phone so that the wind wouldn't distort his voice.
"Xu Fan? You brat have ruined ! You wouldn't believe..."
Azure Dragon instantly perked up, ready to recount his woes to Xu Fan, the cause of his suffering. But before he could, Xu Fan interrupted.
"Senior Azure Dragon, I'm not sure if the promise you made earlier is still valid." Xu Fan's voice was filled with calm.
In truth, this line was just a courtesy. At this mont, the Six Gods were Xu Fan's only choice, and they had to agree!
You see, the Flying Sword was locked onto Xu Fan, currently following him. The Six Gods must agree to Xu Fan's request if they don't want their base to beco riddled with holes.
Upon hearing Xu Fan's words, Azure Dragon was startled, imdiately recalling his previous promise—that no matter where or when, if Xu Fan encountered an unsolvable problem, in seeking help from the Six Gods, they would protect Xu Fan at great cost!
These words were ant to gain Xu Fan's favor. Azure Dragon believed in his own judgnt that by winning Xu Fan's favor, the Six Gods' future plans would progress much more smoothly, even advancing decades earlier!
Azure Dragon shivered, his drowsiness vanished. He first thumped his chest loudly, "Brother Xu, are you looking down on , Azure Dragon? Your problem is my problem! While I may not wield ultimate authority within the Six Gods, my words do carry so weight!"
Then he softly inquired, "Brother Xu, what exactly happened?"
Azure Dragon knew about Xu Fan's issue with the Taoists. Reportedly, three Supre Elders had co down personally to kill Xu Fan! If Xu Fan wanted the Six Gods to exterminate the three Supre Elders, Azure Dragon would definitely refuse.
Helping Xu Fan and gaining his favor was a move for the Six Gods' future. But the future is still the future. If they exterminated the three Supre Elders, it would be outright war with the Taoists. Where would the Six Gods have their future then?
Therefore, Azure Dragon did not speak too assertively, leaving so room for maneuver.
How could Xu Fan not understand the implications in Azure Dragon's words? However, he had no ti to spar with Azure Dragon. The Flying Sword was right behind him, ti was running out; today, the Six Gods must agree—whether they wanted to or not!
"Senior Azure Dragon, to cut a long story short, I had a fortunate encounter today and found a Flying Sword treasure in a cave, but accidentally triggered a restriction, and am now being hunted by the Flying Sword."
"The Flying Sword's power is terrifying, its speed extrely fast, capable of threatening and possibly killing a Kai Yang Realm strong person! But it likely only has one strike's power!"
"I am currently heading straight for the Six Gods' base, arriving in about three minutes, with the Flying Sword about three and a half minutes behind ; Senior Azure Dragon, please prepare."
After these words were spoken, Xu Fan swiftly ended the call.
So things don't need to be explained explicitly. Azure Dragon is a smart person and will surely understand his intention.
For example, Xu Fan deliberately omitted the Taoists' involvent, saying only that the Flying Sword was found in a cave; Azure Dragon would surely see through that, but still believe it as it clears any ties to the Taoists.
Even if the Taoists were to investigate later, Azure Dragon could use this line, shifting the responsibility onto Xu Fan's cunning nature.
Moreover, Xu Fan told Azure Dragon that there would be a half-minute gap between his and the Flying Sword's arrival at the Six Gods' base. Half a minute is enough for a Flying Sword with Kai Yang power to level the entire base!
Xu Fan believes Azure Dragon will understand the implications of his words.
In truth, Xu Fan did not want to be so blunt, but the situation was extrely urgent. Azure Dragon needs a convincing excuse for the higher-ups of the Six Gods.
Favor? Promises? What could be more compelling than a tangible threat?
Indeed, that was the case.
"Xu Fan! Stop fooling around! Your master is also at the Six Gods! Hello? Hello?"
Bam!
The phone was slamd heavily onto the table by Azure Dragon, leaving him in a daze. Then, realizing the urgency of the situation, he slapped himself across the face and sprinted madly toward a location.
