?Chapter 647: Chapter 647: Cangxue Mountain Range_1 Chapter 647: Chapter 647: Cangxue Mountain Range_1 The four people in the car included Qin Qinglong, who had the lowest strength and position and, without a doubt, became the driver – he drove in silence, steadily and quickly.
Elder Zhu Yangyuan sat beside him in the passenger seat, quietly closing his eyes to rest.
In the back seat naturally sat Long Guhuang and Xu Fan.
“Patron Xu, I never expected your daughter to be so adorable, truly a charming little princess,” Long Guhuang said with a sideways smile.
“Indeed.”
Xu Fan accepted the praise without any hesitance, the smile edging his lips devoid of any force but full of tenderness.
In this life, the softest spot in his heart belonged to his daughter.
Even though his cultivation had plummeted back to the beginning, he felt no regret.
Instead, he was proud and fortunate to have such a precious daughter.
In a sense, he even felt he had made a huge profit.
If he were to trade Tongtong for a chance to ascend to The Immortal Realm, he would refuse without hesitation.
“Rest assured, Patron Xu, this time going to the Northern Border Ruins I’ve specially dispatched a team of experts to secretly protect the Xu Family residence, so as not to let any accidents befall your family,” said Long Guhuang, the corners of his mouth tipping up a bit.
If someone else heard this, they might misinterpret his action as a veiled threat to use Xu Fan’s family as leverage, to ensure he kept his promise and avoided causing any trouble.
But Xu Fan, relying on his powerful mental strength, could easily discern Long Guhuang’s tone and thoughts, knowing that the other party was indeed trying to eliminate his worries with this gesture.
This time, Xu Fan had directly removed all the Black Blade Organization operatives he had planted within the Xu Family, severely foiling their plans.
Perhaps driven by frustration and anger, they could seize the opportunity to target his family.
“Thank you,” Xu Fan nodded.
“No need for thanks.”
Long Guhuang continued, “Patron Xu, I’ve heard about the incident with Azure Dragon and you.
Fortunately, it was just some misunderstandings and no irreconcilable conflicts.
Let me add that I value Azure Dragon’s potential as an outstanding member of the Flame Dragon Organization, which is why I’ve chosen him to receive the Northern Territory Sovereign’s inheritance.
I hope you can understand and look after him to some extent.”
Immediately after, Long Guhuang glanced at the rearview mirror and frowned slightly.
Qin Qinglong had been distracted by the conversation behind him and, upon seeing this, quickly turned to face Xu Fan with sincerity, saying, “Patron Xu, I was mistaken about the previous matter and offended you.
I have repented, and I hope you can forgive me this time.”
“Fine,” Xu Fan replied with a single word, but his tone was exceptionally decisive.
To Xu Fan, Qin Qinglong was simply a bit too arrogant, but he hadn’t done anything too extreme, and this matter could be let go.
Long Guhuang immediately smiled.
From Xu Fan’s tone, he understood Xu Fan’s intention, which clearly meant he would no longer dwell on the matter.
Any remaining worries in Long Guhuang’s heart dissipated, and he promptly said, “It’s great that this matter can be resolved like this.
Qinglong, what are you waiting for?”
“Thank you, Patron Xu, for your generous forgiveness,” Qin Qinglong said hurriedly.
Xu Fan nodded indifferently.
Only then did Long Guhuang formally bring up the matter of their journey, “Patron Xu, you’ve been staying at home these past few days, so you probably haven’t learned much about the Northern Border Ruins.
Let me tell you about it now.”
“The Northern Border Ruins are located within the Cangxue Mountain Range of Iceberg City.
It’s expected to open tonight at eight o’clock.
We are quite far, so we will head straight to the airport now and take a chartered flight to Iceberg City, then drive to Cangxue Mountain Range.
In that way, we can arrive an hour before the opening time.”
“What’s worth mentioning is that once we enter the Ancient Ruins, it’s no different from stepping into another world.
There, the rules of the Ancient Martial World do not apply, nor do the laws of the Secular World.
The only law is the survival of the fittest.
Therefore, if it’s not necessary, Patron Xu, there’s no need to hold back.
Kill anyone who dares to provoke you.
Qinglong, remember this as well.”
“Because news of the Northern Border Ruins opening spread five days ago, people from the Ancient Martial World rushed over upon hearing it.
Thankfully, as Patron Xu wields exceptional strength, these people pose no concern.”
“However, after the Black Blade Organization got wind of the news, they brazenly started slaughtering in Yundian Province, and even their Sect Hierarch made an appearance.
To prevent them from causing further trouble, I’ve issued a Black Annihilation Order to all well-known powers in the Ancient Martial World, asking them to send powerful warriors to assist in subduing the situation in Yundian Province.
I also plan to take some people there to assess the situation, so only Patron Xu and Azure Dragon are going to Iceberg City.”
“Once you arrive at the ruins, contact Chief Steward Li Yunlei, who guards our northern frontiers.
I’ve already informed him, and he will arrange everything for you.”
“…”
After listening, Xu Fan had a basic understanding of the present situation concerning the Northern Border Ruins.
But to him, it made no difference whether he knew the details or not.
Even though there were no age restrictions for the competition for the ruins, he held no worries; no matter whom he encountered within the ruins, he wasn’t concerned about facing any danger.
This was not an act of arrogance, but rather full confidence in his own overwhelming strength.
He even thought that, after quickly finishing the exploration of the ruins, he might shift his path to Yundian Province to eradicate the Black Blade Organization.
His determination for revenge was unwavering.
Subsequently, they all silently watched the scenery flash by outside the window.
In just half an hour, they smoothly arrived at the airport.
After bidding farewell to Long Guhuang and Zhu Yangyuan, Xu Fan boarded a private jet with Qin Qinglong, heading for Iceberg City.
Turning around, Long Guhuang’s expression reverted to cold indifference.
He took out his phone to contact Grand Elder Fang Zhenwu, asking, “Grand Elder, where are you now?”
Fang Zhenwu replied, “We’ll be at the airport in fifteen minutes.
The Sword Heaven Sect and Bing Xuan Sect along with other major powers of the Ancient Martial World have reported in, sending top masters.
We’ve agreed to meet in Kunyuan City.”
“Got it.
Elder Zhu and I are at the airport.”
After the call, Long Guhuang looked up towards the southern sky and murmured to himself, “Black Blade Organization, this time, I will uproot you completely.”
Soon after, the two of them joined Fang Zhenwu and a group of others on a private jet, flying to Yundian Province.
?????.??
The Flame Dragon Organization could be said to be deploying en masse this time; not a single one of the four Grand Elders was left behind, and of the four Chief Stewards watching over the headquarters, only Qin Jiumo remained to guard it.
As for the protectors, there were dozens.
Indeed, the warriors on this plane represented the absolute main battle force of Flame Dragon, including two true Dongxu, one quasi-Dongxu, three Heavenly Venerables, nine Kings, and the remaining several dozens were all Grandmaster-level experts.
Moreover, with many powerful warriors dispatched by various major forces of the Ancient Martial World, Long Guhuang was brimming with confidence in the conviction that they could utterly destroy the Black Blade Organization.
…
After Xu Fan and Qin Qinglong’s private jet landed, as soon as they disembarked, two young men were waiting outside the plane, bowing their bodies, one of them said, “Patron Xu, and Minister Qin, I am the Flame Dragon team captain stationed in Iceberg City, Shen Yiqi.
This is my team member Pang Gongtian.
The car is parked outside; please come with us.”
“Good,” Xu Fan nodded.
Quickly, they got into a Mercedes-Benz 7 Series, with Shen Yiqi and Pang Gongtian sitting in front, driving them towards the Cangxue Mountain Range.
Drawing closer to the Cangxue Mountain Range, Xu Fan’s Divine Sense spread out, bringing more and more martial artists’ auras into his perception.
Among them were plenty of Heavenly Venerable Realm auras, mostly from older Ancient Martial World elders, and surprisingly, a significant number of Qi Drawing Realm Ancient Martial Artists.
