"The efficiency of Lingyan Pavilion is indeed impressive. I am very satisfied."

At this moment, Huang Chongyue gave Xiao Lan a thumbs-up, then turned his gaze towards Xu Fan.

"Xu, do you still not understand your current situation?"

"Kneel before me!"

Huang Chongyue barked fiercely at this moment, like a thunderous roar!

His face was full of confidence. What could Xu Fan's strength amount to?

He was just one person; how could he fight against so many from Lingyan Pavilion?

Keep in mind, Lingyan Pavilion is a local bigwig in Jinling, closely connected with many families and official forces in Jinling.

If they take action, Xu Fan alone couldn't possibly handle it!

It wasn't just him; even the Xia Family would suffer punishment for angering him!

"Uh..."

Perhaps intimidated by Huang Chongyue's fierce demeanor, Xu Fan touched his nose, showing a fleeting look of fear on his face.

"Pfft."

But before long, that fear on his face collapsed into laughter with a snort.

"Sorry, sorry, I couldn't hold it in."

"Xu! At a time like this, you still dare to sass me!"

Xu Fan's careless laughter infuriated Huang Chongyue!

Near death, did he still not understand his situation?

"Big Huang, before saying these things, can you do me a favor?"

Taking a deep breath, Xu Fan put away his smile and looked at Huang Chongyue earnestly.

"Could you please stand up from the chair?"

"What?"

Upon hearing Xu Fan's request, Huang Chongyue was suddenly at a loss.

What did this kid mean?

"The seat you're sitting in is the Pavilion Master's seat of Lingyan Pavilion, so you are not qualified to sit there, got it?"

This time, Xu Fan kindly explained.

Huang Chongyue looked at the chair he was sitting on and couldn't help but frown.

So this chair had such a background?

No wonder Xiao Lan was displeased earlier.

"So what? Kid, I can't sit, but do you have to mind?"

Huang Chongyue completely ignored Xu Fan's reminder.

The Huang Family, esteemed among the Hidden World Families, what's wrong with sitting in a mere Pavilion Master's seat of Lingyan Pavilion?

Does it matter to Xu Fan at all?

Now that he had allied with Lingyan Pavilion, both Xu Fan and the Xia Family were about to face calamity. These things weren't even necessary for him to worry about!

"I do have to care about this matter."

Just about to have Xiao Lan start taking action, Xu Fan spoke again.

"Because this seat is mine, Big Huang, do you understand?"

"Wha... what?"

Xu Fan's explanation left Huang Chongyue utterly stunned.

From Xu Fan's words, did it mean he was the head of Lingyan Pavilion?

Then... didn't he bring reinforcements straight into the enemy's base?

This...

This kid must be playing me!

Huang Chongyue looked disbelieving and directly glanced at Xiao Lan.

At this moment, Xiao Lan stood up and directly walked over to Xu Fan.

"Yeah, he's right."

Now with Xu Fan backing her, Xiao Lan glanced indifferently at Huang Chongyue and simply agreed.

The reason for her previous endurance was solely that Huang Chongyue's cultivation level was too high, making her afraid to act rashly, leading to heavy casualties in Lingyan Pavilion.

Thus, she pretended to know nothing, letting Huang Chongyue nag by her ear.

She was still thinking about how to deal with this guy, only to find Xu Fan had returned at this time...

"How can this be..."

Causing such a blunder, Huang Chongyue was utterly humiliated; his face was now as red as a liver.

Xu Fan found it amusing watching from the sidelines.

The fact that he was now the Pavilion Master of Lingyan Pavilion was known to very few people.

The rumor outside still had Xiao Lan in charge of Lingyan Pavilion, so it was understandable that Huang Chongyue would make such a blunder.

"Big Huang, why don't you try finding someone else? Maybe you can find someone in Jinling who can deal with me?"

"You!"

Hearing Xu Fan's taunt, Huang Chongyue stared at Xu Fan with bloodshot eyes!

"Xu! Don't be so arrogant!"

Huang Chongyue was extremely furious! He truly didn't expect that even in Jinling, besides Shanghai, Xu Fan still had overwhelmingly strong backing.

Though angry, Huang Chongyue was not flustered.

So what if Xu Fan had Lingyan Pavilion as his backing?

Could the Huang Family be something he could provoke?

"Xiao Lan, I suggest that Lingyan Pavilion should cut ties with this guy."

"Otherwise, the tragedy of the past will repeat itself."

"You!"

Seeing Huang Chongyue's angry gaze, Xiao Lan gritted her teeth and was about to fight!

Huang Chongyue's mention of the tragedy repeating clearly referred to the tragedy of Xiao Tianfang in the past!

The Huang Family was indeed connected to her brother's death!

"Sister Lan."

Before Xiao Lan could rush out, Xu Fan reached out and stopped her.

"I'll handle this."

Xu Fan's gaze instantly calmed Xiao Lan down.

She trusted him to help her vent her anger, so she obediently nodded and retreated behind Xu Fan.

"Big Huang, threatening a woman is not a good thing."

Protecting Xiao Lan, Xu Fan looked at Huang Chongyue and said, "Whether the tragedy of the past will repeat, I do not know, but if you don't obediently get off that chair now, you'll have to perform the tragedy several times for me."

"What?"

Hearing Xu Fan's threat, Huang Chongyue was infuriated yet ended up laughing.

This guy dared to threaten him?

"Xu Fan, do you truly think that I..."

Slap!

Perhaps Xu Fan wasn't aware of how solid his background was, but Huang Chongyue was about to explain.

But before he could finish speaking, a shadow flashed before his eyes. Xu Fan, just five meters away a moment ago, was already in front of him!

Xu Fan's raised hand mercilessly slapped down hard!

So fast! Unprepared, Huang Chongyue, along with the chair, rolled backward!

Crash! The well-crafted Taishi chair shattered into pieces under Huang Chongyue.

"You're looking for death!"

Though embarrassed, Huang Chongyue wasn't incapable of standing up after a slap; clutching his reddened cheek, eyes blazing with rage, he charged at Xu Fan!

But before he could approach, Xu Fan wielded his Sword Finger, unleashing Thunderclap Finger!

In an instant, azure spiritual power emanated from Xu Fan's fingertips!

The spiritual power gathered, forming a blade pointed directly at Huang Chongyue!

This skillful manipulation of spiritual power stopped Huang Chongyue's enraged charge.

Xu Fan glanced at Huang Chongyue indifferently and snorted, "Big Huang, a mighty dragon can't overpower a local serpent. Jinling is under my control, Xu Fan's territory—what do you have to fight me with?"
