Facing the white-bearded old man's question, Ye Fan looked confused.
Just when he was hesitating, the more than twenty monks all grasped the weapons in their hands and pointed at Ye Fan from a distance.
"Do you have any misunderstanding? I don't know anyone from the He family, and I'm not a killer. I'm just a passerby!" Ye Fan explained.
However, the white-bearded old man still did not believe it and said coldly: "This deserted mountain is infested with monsters and extremely dangerous. It has always been inaccessible and no passers-by will pass by at all! You show up here sneakily and you dare to make excuses? Really? Am I a fool?!"
After saying this, the old man burst out with extremely powerful power, his clothes moved automatically without wind, and his energy and blood surged into the sky. His strength was a bit stronger than that of Qian Wang Cao Guang, who was also at the peak of Nascent Soul.
For a time, the atmosphere in the venue was tense and extremely tense.
Ye Fan frowned when he saw this. He just wanted to ask for directions, but the other party was indiscriminate.
Clay Bodhisattva still has three points of fire energy!
Although most of the opponents are Nascent Soul cultivators, Ye Fan relies on the God Burying Sword, the Great Wilderness Divine Fire, etc., so he won't suffer any loss if he really wants to fight.
"Mr. Dong, wait!" At this moment, a soft female voice suddenly sounded.
Immediately, a girl with outstanding appearance walked out of the crowd.
The girl is younger than Ye Fan, about sixteen or seventeen, with bright eyes, a beautiful nose and cherry lips, and delicate skin that beats the frost. Although her face is a bit green, she can still tell that she is a beautiful woman. She will definitely become a gorgeous beauty in the future.
She was wearing expensive brocade clothes, with a faint brilliance flowing on the surface. It was obviously a valuable spiritual weapon and robe.
"Miss, what are your orders?" the white-bearded old man asked her respectfully.
"Mr. Dong, this elder brother doesn't look like a bad person, and he is so weak. Like Xi'er, he only has the cultivation of golden elixir. How could he be a killer hired by the He family?" the girl said softly.
Hearing this rescue, Ye Fan looked slightly embarrassed and didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
weak?
This is the first time someone has used this word to describe him.
In terms of realm alone, Ye Fan is only at the peak of the Golden Core. On the higher plane Tianshu Star, he is indeed not considered a master. Among his peers, those who can be hailed as "geniuses" are all Nascent Soul monks.
But Ye Fan's combat effectiveness cannot be inferred using common sense.
Ordinary Yuanying monks are completely vulnerable to him!
Even masters of Nine Transformations like Xie Dao Yan Jingfeng and Red King Huo Juechen were so frightened by him that they fled.
But now, Ye Fan hesitated and still didn't explain too much.
At this time, the old man with white beard looked straight at Ye Fan, his eyes were like a torch, and asked sternly:
"Boy, are you really just passing through?"
There is a hint of inner strength in his voice. If someone has evil intentions, he will immediately feel timid and show his weakness.
"That's right!"
Ye Fan nodded, his eyes clear.
"Okay! For the sake of my lady speaking for you, I'll spare you once! There are monsters in this Huangling Mountain. You can follow us out! However, if you dare to do anything wrong, I will never do it. I will be merciful!"
At the end of the sentence, the white-bearded old man's eyes burst out with murderous intent, and the surrounding temperature instantly dropped to freezing point.
Faced with this threat, Ye Fan shrugged and remained noncommittal.
"Okay, let's continue on our way!"
The white-bearded old man ordered, and the monks immediately took action and moved toward the southeast.
And the girl also came to Ye Fan and said: "Brother, my name is Qiao Xier, what is your name?"
"Ye Fan!"
"Then I'll call you Brother Ye!" Qiao Xier showed a sweet smile.
"Xier, thank you for speaking for me just now!" Ye Fan thanked him.
Although he is not afraid of Mr. Dong, after all, at the critical moment, this little girl is on his side.
"Brother Ye, Mr. Dong is like that, don't be angry!" Qiao Xier pulled Ye Fan's arm and blinked her big black and white eyes, making people subconsciously feel a sense of closeness.
She made an excellent impression on Ye Fan.
Normally, girls with such outstanding appearance grow up surrounded by the admiration of others and tend to be arrogant.
However, Ye Fan didn't see any arrogance in her, and she was willing to lend a helping hand even to strangers she met by chance.
"By the way, Xi'er, what happened to the killers of the He family that Mr. Dong mentioned just now?" Ye Fan asked curiously.
"this……"
Qiao Xier hesitated for a moment, then opened her mouth and told Ye Fan the whole story.
It turns out that the Qiao family is a fifth-grade family on Tianshu planet.
In Tianshu Star, in addition to sects, there are many family forces.
The two forms of sect and family have their own advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage of the sect lies in recruiting talents, and there is strength in numbers.
The advantage of a family is that it has pure blood, works together, and all members are related by blood.
When a family develops to its extreme, it will become a centralized state. The most obvious example is the Great Xia Dynasty.
There are countless families like the Qiao family on the Tianshu planet.
The current head of the Qiao family, Qiao Shan, is Qiao Xier's father. He has the ability to transform into a god and is considered a master.
But not long ago, Qiao Shan was suddenly poisoned by a mysterious poison, his level plummeted, and he became bedridden.
This news was originally a top secret of the Qiao family, but somehow it was found out by the old enemy He family.
Qiao, the ancestor of the He family, was originally a close friend. Later, for unknown reasons, they broke up completely. They have been grudges for generations, and now they are incompatible with each other.
After learning that Qiao Shan was seriously injured, the head of the He family gathered his troops and all his masters to surround the Qiao family's mansion.
If it weren't for the various mechanisms and formations in the Qiao family's mansion, the masters of the He family would have rushed in and carried out a bloodbath.
Qiao Xier was originally studying in a city thousands of miles away. When she heard the news, she rushed back with her family guards overnight. When passing through the Huangling Mountain, she happened to meet Ye Fan.
…
After learning the cause of the incident, Ye Fan comforted him: "Good luck has its own destiny! Xi'er, don't worry, your father will be fine!"
"Hey... I hope so!" A deep look of worry flashed through Qiao Xier's beautiful eyes.
Three days ago, she received news that the He family's masters had surrounded the Qiao family.
Even if she drove non-stop, she still had half a day's journey to the Qiao family's mansion.
"Xier, I happen to have time. If necessary, I can accompany you back to Qiao's house to help out!" Ye Fan said loudly.
It's not that he likes to meddle in other people's business, but Qiao Xier came to his rescue before.
Ye Fan's character has always been marked by grievances and grievances.
If people respect me one foot, I will respect others one foot!
Seeing that he was willing to help, Qiao Xier's beautiful eyes lit up at first, and then she seemed to have thought of something, shook her head and said: "Forget it, Brother Ye, you... you only have the Golden Core realm!"
Ye Fan looked a little embarrassed when he heard this, thinking that she was dissatisfied that his level was too low and he couldn't help.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Qiao Xier continued: "Brother Ye, the head of the He family is a monk who transforms gods, and he is ruthless. If you get injured with us, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life!"
Hearing this, Ye Fan's heart trembled. He never thought that the reason why she refused was for his own safety.
Such a kind girl is as rare as a diamond.
Ye Fan showed a determined smile, waved his fist, and said: "Xie'er, don't underestimate me! In fact... I'm very strong! When I meet the head of the He family, I promise to beat him everywhere.
tooth!"
Although Ye Fan did not deliberately raise his voice, his words were extremely clear in the silent field.
Before Qiao Xier opened her mouth, Mr. Dong who was not far away sneered:
"Tch! You brat, don't try to deceive the young lady with your sweet words! The head of the He family is a monk who transforms into gods. Even our head is extremely afraid of you. He can probably blow you away with just one breath of his breath!"
Other monks also echoed:
"Hahaha... what Mr. Dong taught me is that this guy is not strong enough, but his tone is so crazy!"
"If he saw the head of the He family, he would probably be so frightened that he wouldn't dare to fight back!"
"It's because the lady is kind that she believes in this guy!"
Facing this ridicule, Ye Fan remained calm and silent, too lazy to argue with these guys.
But his silence, in the eyes of others, was a sign of weakness and incompetence.
In the world of immortality, the strong are respected!
No matter where you go, if you don't have strength, you will only become an object of contempt.
