"Mr. Li, this ti, you've really helped out a lot."
Mr. Li was feeling guilty when he saw Xu Fan start to express his gratitude.
He couldn't help but find it a bit funny—him, helping out a lot?
Helping out a lot... what does that even an?
"Kid, are you mocking ?"
He guessed that the kid was probably complaining about having made a wasted trip.
"Mr. Li, I'm not joking with you."
Xu Fan shook his head; he was not joking. Indeed, Mr. Li had unintentionally shown him a clear path forward.
As the saying goes, wherever you fall, just lie there.
Situ Jing had once been defeated by his foster mother's Gu insect, so Xu Fan would make him fall into the sa trap again.
Refining Gu insects—he could do that too.
Recalling what Mr. Li had just described, Xu Fan rembered the various effects of Gu insects docunted in the Ghost Gu Art.
With Situ Jing's current cultivation level, so of the low-level Gu insects from the Ghost Gu Art would be ineffective against him.
They would likely be destroyed by the overpowering Qi Force in his body.
Excluding those Gu insects, Xu Fan indeed found so clues.
It was a bit troubleso, but overall, it gave him a glimr of hope.
Success or failure would depend on the next month.
"Kid, what are you thinking about?"
Xu Fan was lost in his own thoughts, pondering sothing while Mr. Li couldn't help but ask curiously.
"You don't think you can find that expert, do you?"
Honestly, Mr. Li regretted having brought Xu Fan here.
Although he had given him a sliver of hope, that hope was entirely implausible.
"No, going there and back, it's too much trouble."
Xu Fan shook his head. Going to Miaojiang to seek his foster mother's help was indeed feasible, but he didn't wish to do so.
In his view, crying for help at the first sign of trouble wasn't very manly.
Besides, he might not be without hope after all.
"..."
This kid, seeing the vague confidence on Xu Fan's face, Mr. Li couldn't help but shake his head.
Talking as if he could just find it...
"So what do you plan to do?"
When Mr. Li asked, Xu Fan narrowed his eyes and said, "Let him fall in the sa place again."
"..."
Seeing Xu Fan's overflowing confidence, Mr. Li almost choked on his own breath.
This guy made it sound too easy, didn't he?
Lure Situ Jing to fall in the sa place again? Did he really think he had the capability?
"Xu Fan, it's better to be more down-to-earth as a person..."
Right then, Mr. Li started to advise earnestly.
"The Miaojiang Gu techniques are not sothing ordinary people can access. I know you have decent cultivation, but such Strange Techniques are still too far from your reach."
"I could find soone skilled in Gu Refinent, but do you think it would be effective against him, Situ Jing?"
Mr. Li felt what Xu Fan was thinking was very unrealistic.
Firstly, he couldn't access the highest level of Gu Refinent Techniques, and secondly, how could he cast Gu on Situ Jing?
You should know, with that guy's strength, Xu Fan would likely never get close enough to him.
"Mr. Li, don't worry about ,"
"If I dare to think it, I have the ability to do it."
Xu Fan didn't take Mr. Li's concerns seriously at all.
What he had inherited was the Ghost Gu Art directly passed down by his godmother, the supre art of Gu Refinent Technique in Miaojiang today.
With the Jade Silkworm in hand, even the most ordinary Gu insect could unleash several tis its power under his control.
By then, if Situ Jing's Gu combined with the Heart Demon that arose because of his godmother, he would have at least a fifty percent chance of winning.
As he calculated his next moves, Xu Fan couldn't help feeling sowhat gloomy.
If it weren't for Xia Sanjiu, the Green Rakshasa could still be assisting him.
With the power sparked by the Blood Calling Gu burning the Living Corpse's bloodstream, he believed he could contend with that old man.
However, after the battle on Hong Kong Island, the Green Rakshasa's bloodline had exhausted its contained energy and wouldn't recover its forr strength without nurturing for half a year.
Taking a deep breath, Xu Fan confird his next plan.
He believed that everything in Shanghai belonging to him would soon be snatched away by the Ye Family and Situ Jing.
What he needed to do was to bide his ti.
Once the Gu was ready, he would take back everything he had lost!
"Alright, Mr. Li, thank you for your help today."
It was almost ti to head back and start preparations, Xu Fan steadied himself and got ready to leave.
Mr. Li looked at Xu Fan's optimistically, feeling a bit bitter.
He wanted to help the kid, but now, there wasn't much he could do to help...
"Kid, don't worry, if anything happens to you, your friends, my Li Family will take care of them."
He knew what awaited Xu Fan next, no matter how strong he was, everything would be taken away by the vengeful Ye Family and Situ Jing.
If he could stay uninvolved in this disaster, he would do his best to take care of the people around him.
"Pfft."
While regretting, Xu Fan suddenly laughed.
Xu Fan shook his head, looking at Mr. Li's dejected face, he said, "Mr. Li, rather than that, I would prefer it if you acted as a matchmaker between and your granddaughter."
"Alright, no more talking, I'm off."
Without further explanation, Xu Fan waved his hand and walked straight out of the villa's living room.
Mr. Li watched Xu Fan's departing back, shaking his head involuntarily.
He prayed in his heart that Situ Jing would spare Xu Fan's life.
...
After leaving Li Family's place, Xu Fan drove straight back to Yunsheng Villa to start preparing for Gu insect refining.
This ti, the materials needed were incredibly rare compared to the previous Gu refining.
Just collecting them would cost a significant amount of money.
Even so of the basic insects for refining into Gu couldn't be bought with money.
The path was long and costly, and it was quite damaging financially.
But Xu Fan didn't care; as long as he could get through this obstacle, it would be like upgrading from a bicycle to a motorcycle.
When the ti ca, he would make the Ye Family pay back everything, with interest!
By the ti he reached Yunsheng Villa, it was already dark.
Xu Fan got out of the car and walked into the villa.
It was so late; he wondered what Gongsun Qin was doing.
"Hmm?"
As he pushed the door into the villa, Xu Fan couldn't help but frown.
Even though it was dark, he could vaguely make out signs of a fight in the villa's courtyard.
It seed Ye Chongshan's people had found this place!
Not knowing Gongsun Qin's current situation, Xu Fan followed the traces of the fight, rushing deeper into the villa.
Hurrying along, he soon reached the back garden of Yunsheng Villa.
By the light of the night, he could see that Gongsun Qin was confronting soone in the garden.
Clearly, they had started fighting before he arrived; several artificial hills in the garden had collapsed.
Gongsun Qin looked disheveled and was at her last gasp...
