Chapter 373: Seemingly False, Actually True



Chapter 373: Seemingly False, Actually True

Huangfu Song heard Li Fan’s somewhat rogue words and couldn’t help but feel not annoyed, but rather showed a somewhat approving expression.

“When I heard about your deeds before, I thought you had been possessed.”

“How come, you have nothing to do with the words ‘self-sacrifice’ and ‘selflessness’.”

“It’s just that your actions are seen by everyone, and they cannot be faked. I’ve been puzzled for a long time.”

“Today, your words have dispelled my doubts.”

Huangfu Song looked at Li Fan and nodded slightly: “You, little brat, are ruthless!”

Li Fan remained unchanged: “Senior, you praise too much! I wonder how this compensation will be.”

Huangfu Song patted his stomach and sneered: “You just want to know from me where to compete most efficiently next. Why bother with all these twists and turns.”

With that, he pointed in front of Li Fan.

In an instant, the construction of the Tianxuan Locking Spirit Array, which covered most of the current territories of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, and the information of the corresponding array masters, densely and meticulously, entered Li Fan’s sight.

Not only were the points rankings of each array master on the current big competition leaderboard marked, but even the predictive abilities of each player’s future competition were intimately addressed.

Huangfu Song proudly said: “This is the top-secret list that was newly released yesterday. Although a day has passed, the points will change again. But it can definitely be used as a reference.”

“Ordinary people want to see it, they have to pay a price.”

Li Fan quickly scanned the contents of the list.

After a moment, he frowned slightly.

Huangfu Song saw Li Fan’s expression and was somewhat surprised: “What, Li kid, aren’t you satisfied?”

“Senior Huangfu, it seems that some places are missing from this list?” Li Fan asked, his gaze piercing.

“Missing? Impossible! I…”

Before Huangfu Song could finish his retort, Li Fan interrupted directly: “What about the Five Elements Great Cave?”

Huangfu Song froze in place.

But Li Fan continued incessantly: “As the fuse that caused the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders’ Heavenly Spirit Province to have a great battle thousands of years ago, and now the main source of countless resources within the alliance, such an important place, it’s impossible not to set up a Tianxuan Locking Spirit Array, right?”

“And what about the Endless Sea? A training holy land that countless cultivators dream of, once crossing the sea, they can reach the peak of the current realm in one go. I didn’t see it on the list either.”

“Xingzhu Yuan, Jieshi Tian…”

“Although I’m ignorant, I’ve still heard of these places,” Li Fan said, in order to conceal his true intentions, he mentioned many secret and important places in succession.

These were all things Li Fan had learned from browsing secret documents in daily life and had not actually visited.

However, at this moment, bringing them out to confuse the situation couldn’t be better.

“You know quite a lot.” Being exposed by Li Fan, Huangfu Song’s expression remained unchanged.

With a grumble, Huangfu Song said seriously, “Let’s be direct. You also know the importance of these places. It’s simply impossible to let outsiders enter at will.”

“That’s right. Building formations in these places does indeed yield several times the contribution of ordinary areas.

“But the relevant formations are all managed by specific people. You, a junior, without connections or backing, still want to sneak in to earn points…”

“You’re really overthinking it.”

Huangfu Song shook his head repeatedly, “Look at the many people on the big competition leaderboard, who among them can do it?”

“Are they stronger than you?”

Li Fan, faced with Huangfu Song’s denial, didn’t feel disheartened for a moment; instead, he seized the key point.

Thoughtfully, he said, “Senior’s meaning is, as long as one has connections and a background, it’s not impossible to participate in the construction of these formations in these areas, right?”

Huangfu Song was rendered speechless by Li Fan’s unique line of thought.

Just as he was about to make a mocking remark, he saw Li Fan deep in thought, and inexplicably, he felt a shock in his heart.

“Could it be that you really have some backing?” Huangfu Song asked suspiciously.

Li Fan, however, didn’t directly answer, just smiled faintly, “Just doing what one can, that’s all. Perhaps this matter will still require Senior Huangfu’s mediation in the future.”

These ambiguous words made Huangfu Song even more uncertain.

“If there’s anything I can do, I’ll contact Senior again later. I hope Senior will help me when the time comes.” Li Fan said politely.

With that, he was about to leave the room.

Watching Li Fan’s departing figure, Huangfu Song’s gaze flickered.

After hesitating for a moment, he couldn’t help but ask, “Regarding Dantai Tao…”

Li Fan didn’t stop walking, and in an instant, he had disappeared from Huangfu Song’s sight.

Only a faint voice lingered, echoing in the room.

“Just a joke from a junior. If Senior feels bothered by it after helping me several times, then I won’t mention it again in the future.”

Huangfu Song stared in the direction where Li Fan disappeared, his expression inexplicable.

With a cold snort, he slammed the door of the room shut.

Li Fan remained composed and returned to his own residence.

Li Fan wasn’t sure whether the untimely death of Dantai Tao and the others was really related to Huangfu Song.

However, when Li Fan initially casually mentioned Dantai Tao to tease Huangfu Song, he noticed a hint of strangeness in his somewhat overreacted expression.

He even faintly felt a killing intent directed towards him.

Although it was almost imperceptible, Li Fan, who had mastered the “Formless Killing Intent”, was extremely sensitive to murderous intent.

It could be basically confirmed that at that moment, Huangfu Song did indeed have the thought of killing Li Fan.

This made Li Fan somewhat curious.

So, from then on, Li Fan continuously used the death of Dantai Tao to test Huangfu Song’s bottom line.

What surprised him was that whenever Li Fan mentioned Dantai Tao, Huangfu Song really became somewhat more agreeable.

And because of this, his attitude towards Li Fan was also different from that towards other disciples.

Until today, Huangfu Song’s question.

It was considered to confirm that there was indeed some connection between him and the deaths of Dantai Tao and the other disciples.

The possibility of him personally taking action was unlikely, otherwise, he should have been dealt with long ago.

However, it was still possible that he had done things like revealing information about Dantai Tao and the others.

This was also why Huangfu Song was somewhat sensitive to the three words “Dantai Tao”.

Because he couldn’t stand serious investigation.

Although time had passed, and the names of Dantai Tao and the others had been almost forgotten by the vast majority of people.

But Li Fan always brought it up in front of Huangfu Song every once in a while.

And indeed, it made him somewhat uneasy.

Li Fan naturally understood the principle of moderation.

Since Huangfu Song had made his intentions clear today, it would be impossible for Li Fan to pretend to be ignorant as he did before.

The conveyed meaning was also very clear: as long as you help me one last time.

Then from now on, I will never mention this matter again.

Li Fan had already obtained plenty of information from Huangfu Song, and it wouldn’t be good to push him too far.

Li Fan made this statement without any reluctance.
