The anti-Xu alliance officially ford under the leadership of Yunzhi is now at its peak, with few daring to approach Xu Fan. The one who walked towards Xu Fan with a smile was naturally the black-robed elder, who knew Xu Fan deeply.
Prior to this, Xu Fan couldn't bear the incessant chatter of Jiang Quan and sent him to the black-robed elder, asking Jiang Quan to convey a few ssages to the elder for so peace and quiet.
The black-robed elder was uneasy due to Xu Fan's ambiguous attitude towards the trial. Upon seeing Jiang Quan approaching, he certainly wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.
After the trial, the various powers returned to report the situation to the previous council, which was taken aback. They ordered to befriend Xu Fan at all costs, using every ans possible to probe the depth of the power behind him. Although the black-robed elder had so ties with Xu Fan, both were clear that those ties were entirely based on interests.
Their mutual value ensured a good relationship, but if that value was lost, a stab in the back would be a small matter; turning one into powder was a possibility!
As a mber of the Blood Clan, the black-robed elder always regarded everyone with malice, especially those extrely dangerous folks!
The trial had ended, and Xu Fan had not contacted him for a long ti. The black-robed elder was in distress until he heard of Jiang Quan's arrival.
Just as he was dozing off, a pillow was delivered!
Without any hesitation, the black-robed elder seized the opportunity and began showering Jiang Quan with complints, calling him dignified and extraordinary, flattering him to the point of dizziness, unwittingly bringing the black-robed elder along.
Xu Fan was not surprised at all by this outco.
This was Jiang Quan's style, and it was also the style of the black-robed elder. Moreover, this was precisely Xu Fan's purpose for sending Jiang Quan to the Dark Council. Before executing his grand plan, Xu Fan must guard against any desperate attempts from the previous council! And the black-robed elder had always been a good partner.
Sensing the spiritual power fluctuation as the two arrived, Xu Fan gathered the mountains of treasures in the room and ca out smiling to greet them.
"Oh my! How could I trouble Mr. Xu to personally greet , what a sin."
This ti, the black-robed elder's stance was unprecedentedly low. Not only did he descend early from the air, walking deliberately to show sincerity, but upon seeing Xu Fan, he was moved to tears with a look of utmost honor, bowing towards Xu Fan.
Xu Fan maintained a smiling appearance on his face, while his heart remained unmoved.
Xu Fan had long seen through the black-robed elder's character. In a sense, the black-robed elder and Yunzhi were alike, keen on power tactics and willing to use any ans to achieve their goals.
Reputation was utterly insignificant, not worth ntioning.
"Speaker, you're too courteous. Is there a matter you've traveled so far for?"
Xu Fan responded blandly, not expecting the black-robed elder's reaction to be significant, his old face turning red as he thickened his neck and said, "What Speaker? In front of you, sir, how dare I claim to be a Speaker?"
"I've long admired Mr. Xu imnsely. My greatest wish in this life is to serve Mr. Xu wholeheartedly. Just a few days ago during the trial, I had this plan, but feared it might disrupt your important affairs, so I didn't act on it. Now I've traveled tirelessly, only to beg for your acceptance, sir."
"If sir does not agree, I'll just bash my head against these steps to show my sincerity!"
Clearly, this ti the black-robed elder was determined. To get close to Xu Fan, he disregarded even the Dark Council.
Xu Fan was speechless, glaring fiercely at Jiang Quan, who instead of admitting his mistake, grinned proudly and laughed.
In Jiang Quan's view, he had obviously exceeded the task given by his boss! The boss wanted him to deliver a ssage, not only did he deliver the ssage, but he also brought the person back!
The grand Kai Yang Realm's super warrior, the Speaker of the Dark Council, couldn't resist his imnse charm, willing to serve the boss like a horse for just a chance to get close.
Thinking this way, the black-robed elder was indeed a good person!
It's just a pity, good people often don't have good endings. Thinking of Yunzhi, Jiang Quan couldn't help but feel sympathetic.
Suddenly, Jiang Quan, who once hated the black-robed elder to the bone in the dark days of the Dark Council, couldn't help but sigh.
Actually, Jiang Quan had his calculations in mind. The experience of being a Blood Slave in the past couldn't be erased, and rather than fighting the black-robed elder to the death, it would be better to have him beco the boss's subordinate too.
If that happens, the black-robed elder also becos his subordinate, and by then... couldn't he tornt the black-robed elder as he wishes?
The more he thought, the more excited he beca, as Jiang Quan seed to already see the scene where the black-robed elder trembled under his intimidation.
Watching Jiang Quan, who instead of lowering his head under his sharp gaze, grinned as if about to laugh, Xu Fan completely lost faith in this guy.
Originally, Xu Fan intended to entrust Jiang Quan with important tasks, but now it seed evident there was an IQ flaw!
As Xu Fan angrily stared at Jiang Quan, Jiang Quan indulged in visions of stepping over the black-robed elder's head, while no one spoke, leaving the black-robed elder kneeling in difficulty.
To Xu Fan, the black-robed elder was reverent to the bone, especially after seeing Xu Fan order the execution of Luo the Superior Immortal, in the black-robed elder's eyes, Xu Fan seed a more genuine Demon than himself.
Earlier, the black-robed elder had spoken with great assertion, that if Xu Fan didn't let him serve, he'd bash his head on the steps! Based on the black-robed elder's understanding of Xu Fan, Xu Fan would surely be moved and eagerly raise him, so what was with this sudden silence?
Could it be... Xu Fan really wanted to see him bash his head on the steps?
The black-robed elder was shocked and recalling Xu Fan's behavior, it might actually be possible!
What to do?
The black-robed elder panicked, as he had traveled far to serve Xu Fan for future prospects, for a better life, not to bash his head on the steps!
But since the words were out, and Xu Fan seed interested, if he repented and returned to the Dark Council, what fate would await him?
The more he thought, the more terrifying it seed, with his body trembling uncontrollably in the end.
Yunzhi wasn't wrong, Xu Fan was indeed a Demon! How could such a terrible Demon exist in this world!
Just when the black-robed elder indulged in wild thoughts, Xu Fan finally shifted his gaze from Jiang Quan and noticed the presence of the black-robed elder.
