Chapter 411: Chapter 411: Leaving After Accomplishment_1

Qian Zongsheng returned to Xu Fan’s side and whispered, “Protector Xu, a Chief Steward has heard about your conditions and has already booked a flight ticket. He will come to Zhonghai to discuss the details with you tonight.”

“Good.” Xu Fan nodded.

In the world of Sea Blue Star, the allure of the Six Superior Martial Skills, regardless of which major power one speaks of, was fatally attractive, truly priceless.

If it were in ancient times, the emergence of each Superior Martial Skill would have caused a bloody storm of contention.

“Protector Xu, you don’t seem to be worried at all?” Qian Zongsheng remarked, seeing his calm and collected demeanor, and couldn’t help but admire him.

“That’s right.” Xu Fan smiled, “Superior Martial Skills, who wouldn’t be tempted?”

Qian Zongsheng gave a wry smile.

But, that was the truth.

Even he could not have the chance to own a Superior Martial Skill. If he wanted to cultivate one, aside from becoming a Martial King, he would have to expend a vast number of Merit Points.

Therefore, in the entire Flame Dragon Organization, only a handful of people had the opportunity to practice Superior Martial Skills.

He couldn’t help but exclaim, “Protector Xu, I truly envy your fortune.”

One couldn’t even imagine, a discarded member of a family actually possessing the greatest and most lethal treasure in this world.

If the news were to spread, it would probably turn the Ancient Martial World upside down. No major power could stand idly by; all would definitely take action to vie for it.

However, for Xu Fan, the so-called Six Superior Martial Skills were truly of little use. Even in the Cultivation World, they were somewhat unheeded, only Cultivators below the Golden Core would reluctantly study them.

Not to mention a mighty Immortal Emperor.

If it weren’t for the concern that higher-level techniques and mystical arts were too esoteric, Xu Fan wouldn’t bother painstakingly searching his memory for such low-level martial arts techniques.

Of course, there was nothing to complain about, as it was determined by the level of the world.

Seeing the look of envy on his face, Xu Fan couldn’t help but say, “Minister Qian, if you don’t mind, I can copy one and give it to you.”

“Really?” Qian Zongsheng was instantly excited and stared at Xu Fan incredulously, “Protector Xu, you’re not just teasing me, are you?”

“How could I? I consider you a friend,” Xu Fan said earnestly.

Qian Zongsheng was moved as he looked at Xu Fan, filled with gratitude, yet he didn’t know how to express it. After all, a Superior Martial Skill was akin to billions in wealth; no manner of thanking could seem sufficient. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, “Thank you.”

Xu Fan waved his hand dismissively.

To him, it was just a simple favor, costless and effortless. Yet, it could earn him the friendship of Minister Qian, undoubtedly a good deal.

Overall, Qian Zongsheng had been rather considerate towards Xu Fan, caring for his interests.

Xu Fan was not made of wood; he could sense the other’s sincere attitude towards him, so he also wanted to reciprocate the uncompensated effort.

After the matter came to a close, Xu Fan left alone.

Qian Zongsheng and Gao Ziling still had to deal with the aftermath on the scene.

Gao Ziling was quite annoyed in his heart. The instigators had stirred a storm, and just like that, they left with a pat on their backsides, while they, in turn, became the “Rolexes,” required to manage the situation to prevent it from worsening, reducing the impact as much as possible, and meanwhile, the Black Blade Organization had actually become patrons to the Xu Family. This matter definitely needed to be clarified with Xu Qiyin, and they had to contact the Xu Family to find out if there were any other “landmines” left.

There was no choice, once there was a connection with the Black Blade Organization, any slight movement had to trigger full alertness.

…

Today, Zhonghai City had experienced its most tumultuous day since the new century began, with government departments operating at full capacity. Most families and powers also paid continuous attention to this event.

Without a doubt, from now on, Zhonghai City would undergo tremendous changes in its power structure.

And all of this was, of course, caused by Xu Fan.

After entering the elevator, Xu Fan used his spiritual energy to slightly alter his facial features. He looked like a different person, and even someone who knew him well would find it hard to recognize him now.

There were no side or rear doors in the hotel, and the main entrance was under heavy scrutiny; even a small cat entering or exiting would be noticed by countless people.

Therefore, Xu Fan jumped out of a window in an unoccupied room on the third floor and landed on the ground behind the hotel.

After that, he hailed a taxi nearby and headed for Xinghai Media.

As soon as he got in the car, Xu Fan called Xu Yixue immediately.

In less than three seconds, the anxious voice of Xu Yixue came through the phone, tinged with a hint of reproach, “Xu Fan, where are you? I’ve been trying to contact you so many times but couldn’t get through. I’ve been worried sick.”

Hearing the familiar, concerned voice, Xu Fan felt warmed inside and couldn’t help but smile. His voice was gentle as he said, “I’m on my way to your company. Don’t worry about me; how could anything happen to me? What could a few stinky fish and rotten shrimp stir up?”

“No trouble? Are you treating me like a three-year-old to be fooled? The whole Zhonghai City is in chaos right now,” Xu Yixue was so anxious she was nearly crying, praying, “I hope you haven’t had an accident!”

Through their constant interactions, Xu Yixue’s feelings for Xu Fan had deepened, and she relied on him more and more.

Xu Fan couldn’t bear to see a woman worry about him and quickly reassured her, “Xue’er, for your sake and Tongtong’s, I wouldn’t let anything happen to myself, nor would I let you two be in danger.”

“Tsch! Stop it with that nonsense.” Xu Yixue’s face was flushed, but her heart felt as sweet as if soaked in honey, and she no longer dwelled on the seriousness of the situation.

She then shared with Xu Fan the responses and plans made by various parties in Zhonghai City.

There was no helping it, since Xu Fan had turned off his phone and was unreachable, leaving others no choice but to contact her. This was how she learned about everyone’s attitudes.

After listening to her account, Xu Fan then realized that so many people were worried about his safety.

He had full confidence in himself regarding this incident. What he wanted was to intimidate the petty criminals and warn all forces not to target the people around him.

But outsiders didn’t know his purpose and thought he was simply being impetuous and vengeful, almost breaking the rules of the Ancient Martial World.

So many saw Xu Fan as a complete fool, believing that stirring up such a big mess would hardly end well, and that he might even have lost his life.

Given this situation, those who still stood by him and even offered help were prepared to face the repercussions, which could have been severe.

In response to this, Xu Fan could only silently note down these people’s names. He was clear about grievances and gratitude; never would he let their efforts go by like east-flowing water, never to return.

After ending the call with Xu Yixue, Xu Fan began to call these people: the Lu family brothers, Brother Long, the Yue family siblings, Cui Dong, and others, to express his thanks and assure them they could rest easy; the incident had come to an end, and he was safe.

After the calls, the taxi happened to stop right outside the building of Xinghai Media. Xu Fan handed the driver a red banknote before getting out of the taxi and walking towards the company.

A few minutes later, Xu Fan went straight into Xu Yixue’s office.

Upon opening the door, he saw Xu Yixue holding Tongtong and sitting there. Chen Shiyu was accompanying her and chatting. Ye Xiaoning wasn’t there; she had probably gone to the hospital with her father for treatment.
