“No, honey!”

Xu Yixue called out worriedly.

Xu Fan knew everyone was anxious for him, and he couldn’t help but turn back with a slight smile, saying calmly, “It’s alright, trust me.”

Then, turning his gaze back to Zhu Yangyuan, he said calmly, “Right now, I simply don’t have the time.”

The birthday party still needed some time to end.

“No matter.” Zhu Yangyuan was not in a hurry and nodded, “The High Seas, in two and a half hours, no absence.”

“No problem.”

Xu Fan agreed readily.

Two combatants with strength not inferior to the God Realm, a mere clash could cause grave upheaval.

Naturally, they could not fight within the bustling city, lest they reduce the surroundings to ruins and harm countless ordinary people.

And The High Seas, virtually uninhabited, naturally provided the perfect venue for an uninhibited battle.

Zhu Yangyuan turned and left, waving to Qin Qinglong, “Qinglong, let’s go!”

“Yes, Master.”

Qin Qinglong felt a surge of excited anticipation, looking forward to the clash between God Realm fighters and imagining his master beating Xu Fan to a pulp.

Zhu Yangyuan, however, sighed inwardly and disappeared from the crowd’s sight with his hands behind his back.

Qin Qinglong’s confidence had taken a complete hit from Xu Fan; he had already resigned himself to being inferior, willing to concede, losing the drive for self-improvement.

This was not a good sign.

It was unknown when he would rekindle the will to fight, believe in his invincibility, and bring forth the unyielding battle spirit from within.

Qin Qinglong arrived at the door of the private room, turned to take a deep look at Xu Fan, his eyes flashing with a trace of unwillingness, but it was no longer strong.

The immense gap between him and Xu Fan had left him with an overwhelming sense of powerlessness and even some fear, with no thoughts of provoking Xu Fan anymore.

“Qin Qinglong has slinked away, so why are you still here?” Wang Xiaolong glared fiercely at Chen Baishi, speaking menacingly.

“Alright, alright, I’m leaving, right now.”

Chen Baishi snapped back to his senses, looking frightened, and scampered out, resembling a flustered minion in retreat.

If Qin Qinglong, a reputed young talent, couldn’t last a single round against Xu Fan, he was even less significant.

After these folks left, the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became a lot quieter.

Xu Fan smiled thinly and called out, “Come on, everyone, don’t just stand there.

Let’s continue to eat and drink.”

Everyone nodded and returned to their seats, but the jubilant and harmonious atmosphere had disappeared, and no one felt like eating or drinking anymore, all consumed with worry for Xu Fan.

“What’s the matter, why aren’t you eating?”

Xu Fan frowned and, after sweeping his eyes around the room and seeing everyone’s faces still etched with concern, he didn’t bother to explain and instead put a piece of beef on Tongtong’s plate, “Tongtong, open your mouth.

Daddy has got some beef for you.”

“Daddy’s the best.”

Tongtong opened her mouth, bit into the beef, and began to chew slowly with a happy giggle.

“My dear nephew, do you know Elder Zhu’s cultivation level?” Li Fuqiang eventually couldn’t hold back his curiosity.

“I have more or less figured it out.”

Xu Fan saw everyone looking over curiously and chuckled, “Zhu Yangyuan is a Golden Core Stage cultivator, roughly equivalent to the mid or late Dongxu Realm.”

So powerful!

It was beyond everyone’s imagination.

Yet Xu Fan spoke of it with such calm and nonchalance, stunning everyone present.

The Dongxu Realm, that was a level surpassing that of the Heavenly Venerables, a realm unreachable and far too remote for these ordinary Ancient Martial Artists.

To see one in their lifetime was already a rarity, not to mention achieving such a level.

It was said that Dongxu strong ones could, on the basis of invoking the energy of heaven and earth like those in the Heavenly Venerable Realm, further manipulate the might of heaven and earth for their own use.

Even, they could condense the Earthly Law Aspect, and with such power, they were far above those in the Heavenly Venerable Realm.

To prevent everyone from worrying, Xu Fan actually held back some information.

That was, the strength he mentioned of the enemy on Sea Blue Star, under heavy suppression, was in the Dongxu Realm; the actual realm of Zhu Yangyuan was at least that of Nascent Soul.

Otherwise, how could he carry the role of a great sect’s Law-transmitting Elder?

It is estimated that due to staying in the lower realms for too long, a deficit between what was taken in and what was expended caused his strength to decline.

If he had just descended, the displayed power would definitely be that of a complete Dongxu.

Nevertheless, everyone still couldn’t help but worry.

After all, Xu Fan had just entered the Heavenly Venerable Realm, a whole major realm and more behind Zhu Yangyuan, a world of difference.

“Honorable nephew,”

Li Fuqiang contemplated and then spoke his true thoughts, advising, “You have indeed shown extraordinary performance, possessing amazing aptitude and talent, with unlimited prospects.

Yet, with your current strength, I fear you are not yet a match for Elder Zhu.

Elder Zhu is not only many levels beyond you in realm, but he has also cultivated many spells and secret techniques, with plenty of profound methods.

If you cannot win, you must concede in time.

Do not let your youthful stubbornness get the better of you.”

“Old Li is absolutely right,”

Nan Bowan said to Xu Fan with a grave expression, “Xu protector, it’s said that ginger gets spicier as it ages.

Elder Zhu has lived hundreds or even thousands of years as a Cultivator.

He has eaten more salt than the rice you’ve eaten, and whether in terms of perspective, knowledge, or combat experience, he far surpasses you.

It’s better to bow your head, admit your mistake, and give in.

Such an act won’t cause loss of face.

After all, as long as you continue to improve, surpassing Elder Zhu in the future is not impossible.”

“Uncle Li, Uncle Nan, I understand what you mean,”

Xu Fan nodded, but his eyes were exceptionally firm as he said solemnly, “Please believe in me, I am not someone who acts rashly and recklessly.

Without certainty, why would I be so arrogant?”

Li Fuqiang and Nan Bowan exchanged glances and ultimately said no more.

As for Xu Dan, Cui Dong and the others, they believed in Xu Fan wholeheartedly, to the point of blind worship, believing him to be invincible in this world and that, no matter how fierce the opponent, he would ultimately be but a defeated subordinate under Xu Fan’s hand.

Zhang Qingning listened attentively, not offering any persuasion.

But she knew her son was not a rash person, and that mysterious expert called Elder Zhu probably would not strike a deadly blow.

Xu Fan, feeling his mother’s relatively stable emotions, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Three quarters of an hour later, after the meal was finished.

“Xu Dan, you take Zhou Xian and the other two, you must protect everyone properly, do not slacken in the slightest,” Xu Fan commanded.

“Yes.”

The four of them responded in unison.

“Honorable nephew, go ahead and focus on the battle.

I will deploy a team of the organization’s experts to ensure the safety of your sister-in-law and the others,” Li Fuqiang also said.

“Thank you.”

With the organization’s experts stepping in to protect them, he finally put to rest any concerns he might have had.
