Xia Hengzhou didn't really an anything else; he just wanted to suppress Xu Fan's arrogant attitude a bit.
He heard that this kid has been quite arrogant recently, not even considering the four Immortal Emperors. When the Immortals descend to the Lower Realm, he kills them without hesitation.
But what Xia Hengzhou couldn't accept was that he was at least this kid's father-in-law, yet Xu Fan showed no gratitude, even making his people pay the entrance fee to participate in a trial, squeezing them dry.
Respecting the elderly and loving the young is a traditional virtue. Does this kid still keep his father-in-law in mind?
So, Xia Hengzhou decided to put Xu Fan on ice, while also thinking about how to gain the upper hand in the coming fierce battle.
To Xu Fan, Xia Hengzhou is an old fox, cunning and sly. anwhile, to Xia Hengzhou, Xu Fan is undoubtedly a small fox, even more cunning.
Thinking about this gave Xia Hengzhou a headache.
But before he could co up with any idea, the house collapsed...
Hahaha!
Xia Hengzhou laughed loudly twice, forcefully alleviating so of the awkwardness. He patted the dust off his body and strode towards Xu Fan, saying, "Kid, upon hearing you were coming, I hurried back from thousands of miles away. As soon as I sat down and took a sip of tea, the house collapsed…"
"Collapsed well! Just a few shabby rooms, none of which are as important as the feelings between us as father-in-law and son-in-law. What's that saying? 'Isn't it a joy to have friends coming from afar?'"
Hiss!
Looking at this shaless appearance of Xia Hengzhou, Xu Fan took a deep breath.
This old fox has abandoned all face! Truly troubleso!
"You all… go down first! Don't stand here obstructing the conversation between us as father-in-law and son-in-law."
In those words, he did not ntion the collapse of the house, nor intended to settle accounts with Xu Fan.
Naturally, Xia Hengzhou wasn't stupid. Before he could react, Xu Fan had already used so ans to collapse the house. Obviously, Xu Fan's strength had improved again!
Thinking of this made Xia Hengzhou's scalp feel numb!
He was at the Zhiwei Realm Peak, while Xu Fan had just stepped into the threshold of cultivation, rely in the Entering Dao Realm. Yet, Xu Fan's strength soared like a rocket, advancing to Vajra Realm, Zhiwei Realm, and Mysterious Light Realm, almost under Xia Hengzhou's watch! And Xia Hengzhou was still at the Zhiwei Realm Peak…
Xia Hengzhou was almost crying!
It's not that Xia Hengzhou was born incompetent. On the contrary, his talent was considered excellent; otherwise, he wouldn't have been appreciated and heavily used by the Hidden chanism Pavilion. But compared to this kid, why does he suddenly want to die?
However, even if Xia Hengzhou wanted to die, it wasn't possible at this mont.
Power has never been Xia Hengzhou's strength, yet in the eyes of true big figures, not a single person dares to belittle him.
The Hidden chanism Pavilion is mysterious and powerful, unfathomable!
This ti, Xia Hengzhou received a command from his superior, demanding a thorough understanding of Xu Fan's background. If necessary, he could even speak on behalf of the Hidden chanism Pavilion, agreeing to collaborate with Xu Fan!
It's kind of amusing.
Originally, even though Xia Hengzhou had a certain status within the Hidden chanism Pavilion, he was far from being considered a truly important figure. However, since Xu Fan rose to prominence, and Xia Hengzhou's relationship with Xu Fan was exposed in the Hidden chanism Pavilion, his status soared, almost reaching its peak!
Therefore, Xia Hengzhou is determined to succeed in this mission!
"Xu Fan, you are treating yourself too much like an outsider! What is the sentint between us as father-in-law and son-in-law? Why are you distancing yourself so much? You haven't visited here for such a long ti?"
Xia Hengzhou appeared familiar, wrapping his arm around Xu Fan's shoulder, giggling without showing the slightest embarrassnt.
Xu Fan unobtrusively brushed off the hand on his shoulder and disdainfully headed towards a pavilion.
This old fox without regard for face is indeed scary. Standing amidst the ruins of the open-air dilapidated buildings, he cheerfully engaged in pleasantries. Utterly bizarre!
"Son-in-law, this way please. Co, let us have a good talk about our feelings. You are in the Eastern, and I am in The West. We, as father-in-law and son-in-law, supporting each other, are truly invincible in this world!"
Xu Fan silently rolled his eyes.
People who abandon their dignity are invincible in the world. You alone are almost invincible, aren't you? What need is there for to support each other with you?
Seeing Xu Fan's silence, Xia Hengzhou was sowhat surprised.
After all, in Xia Hengzhou's view, Xu Fan needed to collaborate with the Hidden chanism Pavilion, and the need was extrely urgent!
Those are four Immortal Emperors! Even if you have Li Long as a trump card, without bringing so external support, can you single-handedly defeat four Immortal Emperors? What a joke!
However, Xu Fan didn't respond at all to that obvious implication of mutual support, which surprised Xia Hengzhou, leaving him uncertain about how to speak.
Xia Hengzhou knew that Xu Fan was a smart person, so he stopped hinting and spoke directly, "Xu Fan, the opportunity of a millennium is not even three years away, and the four Immortal Emperors are not united. That's why Earth is so peaceful right now. But once their common interest is involved, which is the opening of the Divine Demon Battlefield, the four Immortal Emperors will definitely stand on the sa line."
"In other words, your ti is running short. It could be a year, maybe two years, or less than a few months. Once the four Immortal Emperors descend with overwhelming montum..."
At this point, Xia Hengzhou intentionally stopped speaking.
The aning was expressed very clearly. Xia Hengzhou believed Xu Fan could comprehend it.
Indeed, Xu Fan frowned and finally spoke.
However, what Xu Fan said left Xia Hengzhou bewildered.
"After you sent Xiao Die to the Church of Light, have you paid any attention to the situation there?"
Even though Xia Hengzhou was incredibly intelligent, he was stumped by such a question with an entirely different focus.
What am I saying? What are you saying? These two matters have no connection, right?
However, Xia Hengzhou wasn't an average person. Smiling slightly, he calmly responded, "Xu Fan, you should understand my aning. If I'm not mistaken, Senior Li Long and the others certainly haven't restored their top-tier strength. Even by scouring all of Earth's resources, it wouldn't be enough to support their recovery."
"Moreover, even if they do recover, a thousand years have passed, and everything has long since changed… Only by collaborating with a third party do you have a chance for survival!"
Seeing Xu Fan frowning again, Xia Hengzhou felt slightly reassured.
This kid may seem incoherent, but at least he can understand what I'm saying and has a sense of the overall situation.
In the face of the big picture, trivial matters, like won or small issues, are insignificant.
Yet, in the next mont, Xia Hengzhou was nearly outraged to the point of coughing up blood.
"Xia Hengzhou, is Xiao Die really your biological daughter?"
Upon hearing this, despite Xia Hengzhou's excellent composure, he jumped in a rage.
If Xia Hengzhou wasn't aware that he could not defeat this kid before him, he probably would have jumped up to duel with Xu Fan!
How are these related? Did Xu Fan even listen to what I've been saying?
Taking a deep breath, Xia Hengzhou forced himself to maintain his composure, saying with a strained smile, "Of course Xiao Die is my biological daughter, but the current situation is fraught with danger. If the nest is overturned, how can any egg remain intact?"
"Therefore, I think we should first talk about cooperation…"
Before Xia Hengzhou finished speaking, he saw Xu Fan shake his head, full of disdain, "If he can't even care for his own biological daughter, I don't want to discuss any cooperation with him."
