It seed that Xiao Lan was about to give away sothing quite precious, as Zhou Zhanlong and his group were very eager to peek into Xiao Lan's bag.
"Lan sister, it wouldn't be a villa this ti, would it..."
Last ti Xiao Lan gave Xu Fan a gift, it turned out to be an expensive supercar. Now, Xu Fan was laughing, guessing whether she might pull a set of villa keys out of her bag this ti.
"Huh? This?"
However, what Xiao Lan took out from her bag wasn't what Xu Fan had imagined, a luxury item, but a jade pendant instead.
Xiao Lan opened Xu Fan's hand and placed the jade pendant on it, then laughed, "Do you really think of your sister as a little rich woman? Where would I get so many villas and sports cars to give you?"
"This jade pendant was left to by my late brother. He said that wearing it all year round would be beneficial to your health. You're injured now, so you must listen to your sister and keep it with you, understand?"
"Lan sister, this..."
If Xiao Lan had handed over villa keys, Xu Fan would have happily accepted her gift, but he felt sowhat guilty about taking this jade pendant...
This jade pendant wasn't one of those exorbitantly priced jades found on the market; it was Jiuyang Warm Jade...
It was totally beyond Xu Fan's expectation that Xiao Tianfang had Jiuyang Warm Jade too.
Xiao Lan was indeed right, the Jiuyang Warm Jade was greatly beneficial not only in helping those who practice cultivation to improve their realm, but even for non-martial artists. Constantly carrying the Jiuyang Warm Jade, which contained spiritual energy, could prevent illnesses and speed up the healing of injuries.
Xiao Lan had always carried it and undoubtedly knew the effects of this jade pendant, but now, she was generously handing it over to him...
"Lan sister, I cannot accept this piece of jade..."
Indeed, Xu Fan really needed the Jiuyang Warm Jade's help if he wanted to enter the Innate Realm, but taking it right from Xiao Lan's hands made him genuinely uncomfortable...
"Co on, silly little brother, why so formal with ?"
Xiao Lan smiled and playfully rolled her eyes at Xu Fan, saying, "Sister's health has always been quite good, and I don't really need this jade, but you, who frequently injure your bones and muscles, you should wear this—it'll be more useful with you."
"Of course, if you feel bad about it, then from now on, you must take good care of and never let be bullied by anyone."
Perhaps fearing that Xu Fan would feel uncomfortable, Xiao Lan playfully winked and teased.
"Lan sister, rest assured, as long as I, Xu Fan, am alive, no one in this world can bully you—I promise!"
Maybe Xiao Lan was just joking, but Xu Fan took it seriously. He gripped the Jiuyang Warm Jade tightly in his hand, solemnly assuring Xiao Lan.
Xu Fan found it sowhat amusing that his old ntor once told him that Jiuyang Warm Jade was a very rare treasure that most people wouldn't even recognize on sight.
Yet, during his short ti in Jinling, he had already encountered two pieces of Jiuyang Warm Jade. Could it be that Jinling was truly his blessed land?
Xiao Tianfang knew the effects of Jiuyang Warm Jade, and Xu Fan suspected that Xiao Tianfang's cultivation level was not low, certainly not below his own.
Such an expert had died young, and it was unknown by whose hand...
When he got the chance, he would have to ask Lan sister more about it.
Now, holding the Jiuyang Warm Jade in his hand, Xu Fan couldn't help but think of Mu Qingyan. It was about ti to start treating Duoduo's muteness and deafness.
However, since he was lying in a hospital bed right now, that would have to wait until he was discharged.
"Speaking of which, did you co to see for a reason?"
After chatting with Xiao Lan for a while, Xu Fan asked.
For so reason, Xu Fan felt that Xiao Lan bringing Zhou Zhanlong and the others to visit him wasn't just to give him the Jiuyang Warm Jade.
"You actually guessed it right..."
Xiao Lan looked at Xu Fan with a wry smile and said, "Silly little brother, you might have stirred up so trouble..."
"Huh?"
Xu Fan frowned, Trouble?
He didn't quite understand what Xiao Lan was referring to...
"Do you rember the exhibition I took you to last ti?"
Upon Xiao Lan's reminder, Xu Fan imdiately nodded; it was Uncle Yao who had given Xiao Lan two tickets, and she had taken him there.
Xu Fan clearly rembered how frightened he was when Mr. Jiya ntioned Feng Huang.
Thinking carefully about what had happened at the exhibition that day, Xu Fan smiled.
"Lan, are you talking about the trouble with those Dongying people?"
At the exhibition, Shuichi Akita had mocked the swords from Huaxia, and Xu Fan had stood up.
In the end, he had fought Miyamoto Jiro and had directly disabled him.
If the trouble Xiao Lan ntioned had arisen at that ti, it must surely be this.
"Yes, exactly."
At this mont, Xiao Lan nodded and explained, "Xu Fan, don't underestimate those people from Dongying. Shuichi Akita's family is also quite a major family over there."
"However, if the trouble were just him, with Lingyan Pavilion's capabilities, it would be easily settled."
"The ones looking for trouble this ti, are not Shuichi Akita, but the Miyamoto Itto-ryu."
"It's quite a headache to talk about, but the current sect leader of Miyamoto Itto-ryu, who is also Miyamoto Jiro's grandfather, is getting old. In recent years, he has even started considering retirent."
"Looking at the entire Miyamoto Itto-ryu, it's hard to find anyone more suitable than Miyamoto Jiro to take over, but now, you've disabled Miyamoto Jiro..."
As Xiao Lan spoke, she couldn't help but sigh and said, "I heard from sources in Dongying that the Miyamoto Itto-ryu has already declared that they want to kill you for revenge..."
"Is that so..."
Listening to Xiao Lan's explanation, Xu Fan couldn't help but smile. By sheer coincidence, he had wrecked the best successor of the Miyamoto Itto-ryu, and it made sense for the Miyamoto family to want to kill him.
"Master, we've also received word recently that quite a few people with unknown identities have infiltrated Jinling. It seems they are all from Dongying."
Hu Busan remarked at this ti.
"We suspect that these people have been sent by the Miyamoto family for revenge."
"Hehe, they sure act quickly."
Xu Fan laughed. In such a short ti, they had already initiated their plans. It seed that the Miyamoto Itto-ryu was truly determined to be at loggerheads with him.
"As for the Miyamoto Itto-ryu, such a third-rate martial arts school, if its lineage ends, then let it end. It's really botherso..."
Xu Fan sighed and then said, "Alright, I understand the situation. If there is anything that needs doing, I'll let you guys know."
"Just a few Dongying locusts, no need to worry too much."
"Oh, right."
Suddenly recalling the person he had bumped into in the elevator, Xu Fan imdiately looked at Hu Busan.
"Check soone for ."
