There was a mont where the two of them just stood there with their fists raised.
Their fists were still pressed up against each other, but neither of them moved a single inch.
Everyone looked at the two of them with strange looks when they saw this, but they didn't say a thing as they waited for a response from either of them.
After a long silence, Huang Xie looked at Lin Fan with a strange look.
The way that he looked at Lin Fan was almost as if he was asking him a question.
Only Lin Fan didn't give an answer as he pulled his hand away from Huang Xie's fist.
He looked down at his fist for a second before saying, "The spar is over."
Huang Xie still looked at Lin Fan as if he was asking him a question, but Lin Fan was already walking away with a look of thought on his face.
After Lin Fan walked off, there were several disciples that ca over to ask Huang Xie, "What happened?"
Huang Xie looked at them and slowly shook his head to say, "I don't know either."
Since no one was explaining it to them, the disciples lost interest in the end.
But it wasn't the sa for the elders who had sharper senses than the disciples.
The mont that Lin Fan and Huang Xie's fists made contact with each other, they felt sothing strange. They knew that sothing happened the mont that the two fists collided with each other, they just couldn't tell what it was.
"If the sect master isn't saying anything, who are we to guess?" It was Senior Brother Ying who cut through their thoughts in the end.
He looked at the elders and said with a bitter smile, "Are we really going to let one of the disciples catch up to us that easily? It's ti that we work a bit harder too, don't you think?"
The elders from the Hidden Dragon Sect weren't that easily incited, but it was different for those from the Love Sect. After all, before they beca elders of the Love Sect, they had been disciples of the Love Sect at its peak.
They were still young even if they were elders, so they felt that they could still reach higher heights.
They wouldn't let Huang Xie pass them that easily, even if he had passed so of them.
At least Senior Brother Ying didn't want to be caught up to that easily.
So this spar between Lin Fan and Huang Xie had actually incited the elders to cultivate even more diligently.
It seed that the effect of the spar was good, but there was sothing that Lin Fan cared about much more than the spar itself.
When he was alone in the tent, Lin Fan raised his hand and condensed sothing.
"I never thought that I would be able to take this…It'll be useful, but I shouldn't use this unless I have to." Lin Fan said to himself as he looked at what had condensed around his hand.
Still, he gave a satisfied nod in the end.
…
Three more days passed before the Love Sect started heading back to Dungeon City.
If they had left right away, then people might have been suspicious about what they had done in Death Valley, so they could only stay a few more days to sell the story before heading back.
But no one really minded since they were exhausted from fighting in Death Valley during this ti.
Even if the disciples didn't admit it, it had been hard for them fighting against all of the spirit beasts that had been guarding the elixirs in Death Valley. So the bit of rest and relaxation was good for them.
But after coming back to Dungeon City and the Love Sect, many of them quickly headed into secluded cultivation to solidify their new cultivations and reach higher heights.
Lin Fan didn't care about this since this was what he wanted to see from them.
Rather, there was sothing else that Lin Fan was concerned with.
He was called to et with Mu Bao Bao when he arrived back in Dungeon City.
He didn't know why she suddenly called him, but she had sent soone to wait at the gates for him to bring him to her as soon as he ca back.
When he arrived at the eting place, he found that it wasn't just Mu Bao Bao alone.
There was also Yue Lan and Ming Xin who were also in this room.
The mont that Lin Fan ca into the room, he asked, "Is sothing wrong?"
Mu Bao Bao didn't say anything at first as she turned to the one that led him here and waved her hand to dismiss him. That ssenger quickly left the room so that it was only the four of them that were there.
It was only after he left that the three of them revealed awkward looks and Mu Bao Bao said, "It's not that sothing is wrong, it's just that…"
Yue Lan took over to say, "It's just that the situation has changed in a way that we didn't expect it to."
Lin Fan raised a brow to look at them to show his confusion, but he didn't say anything as he waited for them to explain what they ant by this.
After exchanging a look, Yue Lan took out a few pieces of paper in a stack and placed them on the table for Lin Fan.
He looked at it with the sa confused look, but he took it and read what was on the report.
As he read it, he couldn't help furrowing his brows.
When it was over, he looked up at the three of them with a frown to say, "Is this true?"
The three of them slowly nodded in response which made him knit his brows even more.
"But why at a ti like this?" Lin Fan asked after a long mont of silence.
The three of them shook their heads in response before Mu Bao Bao said, "No one knows why they've suddenly decided to do sothing like this. As far as we know, they had been keeping their heads down this entire ti, so it's definitely strange that they're doing sothing like this all of a sudden."
Yue Lan then added, "Are you going with him?"
Lin Fan thought about it for a bit before slowly nodding.
He knew that this was sothing that he had to do eventually, but he didn't expect it to co this soon. He had been planning on letting Huang Xie beco a bit stronger before this happened, but it seed like they weren't planning on remaining idle.
It seed that they really wanted to die.
In that case, he would do what he could to help them.
"Go and take care of this. He needs to end this matter himself." Mu Bao Bao said in a firm voice.
Once again, Lin Fan gave a simple nod.
He took the report that they gave him and headed back to the Love Sect.
When he ca back, the first thing that he did was find Huang Xie.
Huang Xie was surprised that Lin Fan was looking for him, but he ca to where Lin Fan was waiting for him and asked, "Master, is sothing wrong?"
Lin Fan didn't say anything as he pointed at the report that he had placed on the table.
Huang Xie had a confused look on his face, but he still picked up the report and started reading it.
When he did, his expression changed the sa way that Lin Fan's had when he read the sa report. Though the way that Huang Xie's expression changed was much greater than how Lin Fan's expression changed.
It seed that he was more affected by this report than Lin Fan.
That was because he was more related to this matter than Lin Fan was.
This was a report on the Huang Family after all.
The report was on the recent actions of the Huang Family.
It was clear that they had been acting in a way that would cause harm to the Mu Empire. It even seed like they had intentions of betraying the Mu Empire with what they've been doing.
That was why Mu Bao Bao had received this report.
She had to send soone to quell the Huang Family.
"Is this true?" Huang Xie asked slowly after he finished reading the report.
Lin Fan gave a slow nod in response before saying, "It's ti to go back."
Huang Xie had a very complicated look when he heard this and he didn't say anything in response at first, but eventually he gave a nod in response.
It seed like he still didn't fully agree with this, but he did recognize that this was sothing necessary.
He would have to end this relationship with the Huang Family one day and it didn't seem like there was a better chance than right now.
Seeing the look on Huang Xie's face, Lin Fan said, "I'll co with you."
Huang Xie was surprised to hear this, but he quickly shook his head and said, "No, master, this is sothing that I should do alone."
Lin Fan just raised a hand to put on Huang Xie's shoulder before saying, "It's what I should do as your master. Not to ntion that I'm the envoy of the Mu Empire, so it's necessary that I go if the Huang Family really is up to sothing."
Huang Xie once again had a complicated look when he heard this, but he eventually gave a firm nod in agreent.
