Yan Que's ability is flas, and these flas are not ordinary but Phoenix Fire. A cup of water had already been heated to the extre, even reaching thousands of degrees!
Such terrifying high temperatures, splashed on Xu Fan's face, though not enough to claim his life, would surely make him suffer greatly, thus relieving Yan Que's inner hatred!
Crash!
The cup fell to the ground and shattered, and Yan Que deliberately fell to the ground herself to clear suspicions, purposely landing face first and getting dust on her nose.
Yan Que had long made up her mind that if White Tiger were to bla her, she would play coy and act pitiful. Yan Que did not believe that White Tiger and the others would scold her for such a trivial matter.
"Presumptuous!"
As expected, the angry voices of White Tiger and Azure Dragon echoed in her ears. To Yan Que, this was all superficial; rely a show for Xu Fan, certainly not genuine anger, much less punishnt for her.
However, what Yan Que did not know was that White Tiger, Azure Dragon, and the others were not just angry; they were terrified by that cup of water!
Had Yan Que poured that cup before Xu Fan produced the Fire Spirit Fruit, the consequences would have been unbearable for the entire Six Gods!
The Six Gods indeed saved Xu Fan's life, making him owe them a favor, but if that hot water had splashed on him, there would be no favor at all! Xu Fan might even massacre the Six Gods in a fit of fury, and that would be fortunate!
Now, Xu Fan had brought out sothing that could change the future course of the Six Gods! If White Tiger and the others succeeded, they would be rendering great service! But if Yan Que ruined it, not only she, but White Tiger, Azure Dragon, and everyone present would beco eternal sinners of the Six Gods!
How could this not infuriate White Tiger and Azure Dragon?
Boom!
Terror-striking Mysterious Light surged from White Tiger and Azure Dragon's bodies, yet it was still too slow; no one expected Yan Que to suddenly do such a thing.
Just as the hot water was about to splash on Xu Fan's face, a towering figure sharply turned and blocked all paths of the hot water.
Sizzle!
The bronzed skin reddened upon contact with the hot water, yet the figure remained silent, ensuring no drop splashed onto Xu Fan, then quietly stood aside.
"Jue Shan..."
The hulking figure shook his head, prompting White Tiger to imdiately stop speaking and turn to Xu Fan, bowing apologetically, "Brother Xu, I apologize for startling you..."
"Brother Xu, rest assured, the Six Gods are not unreasonable, and I, White Tiger, am not a muddle-headed old man! Regarding today's incident, the Six Gods will ensure justice for you, Brother Xu!"
White Tiger's voice was filled with anger, obvious to anyone that it was genuine rage.
Not only White Tiger, but Azure Dragon and others felt the sa.
If that cup of hot water had splashed on Xu Fan, it would have been disastrous! Who is Xu Fan? A person who disregards even the Taoists! In a fit of anger, he could instantly stir up a storm in the entire Huaxia cultivation world!
Although Xu Fan might not be vengeful, all the efforts of the others would have been wasted!
How could this not make them furious?
"Bind her! Imprison and report to the higher-ups! Severe punishnt!"
When Jue Shan blocked the hot water, Yan Que was already confused, and upon hearing White Tiger's severe words, her mind went blank.
In her impression, White Tiger had never been so stern, not even Azure Dragon and others had looked at her with such angry eyes...
"You..."
Yan Que stood dumbfounded, unable to speak. Even if she was slow, she realized the gravity of the situation from White Tiger's words.
Was it just a cup of hot water? Was it necessary?
Yan Que didn't understand White Tiger's anger and could only look at Xu Fan with even more furious and hateful eyes. Since Xu Fan appeared, nothing good had happened to her! First, Xu Fan teased her, and now she was to be locked up and reported to the higher-ups for severe punishnt!
Cough cough.
Just when Yan Que's spiritual power was being restricted, and she was about to be taken away, Xu Fan coughed a few tis, drawing everyone's attention back to him.
A cup of hot water, Xu Fan naturally did not care, and he could easily use his Divine Sense to block it, having the ability to retrieve things from his storage ring.
Yan Que's unruliness was not a bad thing for Xu Fan; it was a good thing. White Tiger and others exerted themselves to deepen Xu Fan's favor to the Six Gods, but Xu Fan deliberately let Yan Que pour the water to anger her, thus diminishing the favor.
It's not that Xu Fan didn't want to repay the favor, but he didn't want to be too entangled with the Six Gods, avoiding complications!
So, naturally, Xu Fan couldn't let White Tiger imprison Yan Que just like that; this drama of favor should continue.
"Cough cough, seniors need not be angry, the young girl is ignorant, don't need to take it seriously."
Xu Fan spoke with ease, not blushing or flinching, effortlessly crossing age to beco Yan Que's elder, even speaking on her behalf to White Tiger and others.
Upon hearing Xu Fan's words, White Tiger, Azure Dragon, and others couldn't help but feel a headache, secretly cursing Xu Fan for being cunning.
"Since Brother Xu is so magnanimous, let's let the matter pass. Yan Que, hurry and apologize to Brother Xu!" White Tiger ordered sternly, regretting being too indulgent with Yan Que, leading even himself and others into Xu Fan's trap.
Apologize?
Yan Que was already confused.
Regardless of whether Yan Que was willing to apologize to Xu Fan, even if willing, how should she address Xu Fan? It's known that Xu Fan just spoke for her in an elder's tone, yet he's younger than her by a few years!
Such a muddled relationship, Yan Que couldn't figure it out even if she thought it over for three days and nights.
"No need, it was unintentional, forget it. Little Que, fetch another cup of water."
Xu Fan spoke in an elderly manner, calling Yan Que "Little Que," making her grind her teeth furiously, yet ultimately, she swallowed her anger and went to fetch water for Xu Fan.
Although Yan Que couldn't understand what exactly happened, to avoid being locked up, from being severely punished, she had to obediently comply with Xu Fan's orders.
Earlier, Yan Que thought Xu Fan falling into her hands was a rare opportunity, thrilled beyond words, but now, she was seized and beca a partner in cri with Xu Fan...
Seeing Yan Que walk out, White Tiger and Azure Dragon imdiately looked uneasy and bowed to Xu Fan, "Brother Xu..."
"Seniors need not worry, the previous promises to you remain unchanged."
Xu Fan's words relieved them, yet the next line made them tense again.
"Except, I have three conditions."
