Soon, the waiter brought the food, and the men moved a table to join Long Chen's table.
After a while, the man stood up with his wine glass and said, "Brother Long, my name is Meng Fan, these two are my brothers who have been through life and death, Zhao Kuo and Lin Yuan."
"Brother Long, I am Zhao Kuo!"
"I am Lin Yuan!"
The three of them all stood up with wine glasses in hand. Long Chen also stood up, raised his wine glass, touched it with the three of them, and drank it.
After some introductions, Long Chen finally got to know these three people. Meng Fan and several sworn brothers were originally the indigenous residents of the Northern Wilderness King's City and made a living by hunting. Meng Fan was the eldest brother of these people and was also very powerful.
The strongest one is the Eight-Star Tianwu Realm.
Zhao Kuo is a rough man wearing animal skins and carrying a steel knife on his back. He is tall and looks quite intimidating.
The other person, Lin Yuan, looks like a scholar and speaks in a polite manner.
"Is this Brother Long's first time coming to Canglan Star?"
After finishing his glass of wine, Meng Fan asked.
Long Chen nodded and did not deny it. After all, in the conversation just now, he showed too much ignorance about Canglan Star.
"That's no wonder!"
Meng Fan nodded and said, "Speaking of it, Canglan Star is really a treasure trove of resources. As long as you are strong enough, you can get a lot of cultivation resources."
As he spoke, he pointed to the top of his head, looked around, lowered his voice, and said, "Brother, you may not know why our Fairy Continent sent people to this battlefield between humans and demons, right?"
"Um?"
Long Chu was startled, "Didn't he say that he wanted to kill the demons and prevent them from entering the Fairy Continent?"
"Hey……"
"It seems that Brother Long was also deceived!"
Lin Yuan, who had been silent at this time, shook his folding fan and said, "Destroying the demon is certainly a reason, but it is not the main factor. The reason why the great power of the Fairy Continent sent people to the battlefield of humans and demons is mainly because of Canglan
Star resources.”
"Um?"
When Long Chen heard this, his expression changed and he said, "This Canglan Star only has so many resources? Will it actually attract all the powerful people in the entire Fairy Continent?"
"Hey……"
Zhao Kuo chuckled and said, "To be honest, you are right. Compared to the Fairy Continent, this Canglan Star is a huge and boundless virgin land that has never been developed. Only monsters live in it."
"Compared to this, you have also sensed how rich the spiritual energy here is, right?"
Long Chen nodded and said, "Your spiritual energy here is two or three times that of the Northern Wasteland."
"Hehe..." Zhao Kuo drank a glass of wine, "This is just the edge of Canglan Star, not even the periphery."
"The aura in the core of Canglan Star is a hundred times a thousand times that here, there are countless elixirs, and the veins of spirit stones far exceed those in the Fairy Continent."
"hiss!"
When Long Chen heard this, he couldn't help but take a breath. If this Canglan Star is really so rich, it will really attract the attention of the entire Fairy Continent.
But for a moment, Long Chen frowned, "That's not right. It stands to reason that Canglan Star has been discovered by the Fairy Continent for tens of thousands of years. Tens of thousands of years ago, there was such a terrifying existence as the Great Emperor on the Fairy Continent. Could it be that
After tens of thousands of years, you still haven’t conquered this Canglan Star?”
"Hey, conquest?"
Meng Fan smiled bitterly and said, "On this Canglan Star, the strongest ones are not humans, but the monsters. It is said that after the nine great emperors suppressed the demons in the Fairy Continent, they discussed leaving one person to guard the fairies, and the other eight
People come to explore Canglan Star, and so on."
"However, just when the eight emperors and many powerful people from the Fairy Continent set foot on this star, they were surrounded by a vast sea of monsters. During this period, there were also a large number of demons making sneak attacks. At that time,
The war lasted for ten years. Although humans repelled the beast tide and demons, a lot of power in the Fairy Continent was also consumed."
"But the emperors couldn't bear to part with the fat piece of Canglan Star, so they summoned all the power of the Fairy Continent and sent it here continuously from afar."
"In this way, it took hundreds of years for the Fairy Continent to barely gain a foothold here, but even so, the price paid by the Fairy Continent was huge. Eight of the nine great emperors rushed into Canglan Star.
, gone forever..."
After listening to Meng Fan's words, Long Chen remained silent for a long time.
Lin Yuan glanced at Long Chen and said, "Brother Long's visit this time must be because he received an order from the academy!"
Long Chen nodded.
"That's right, the academy allows geniuses like you to come here to practice, and at the same time, it can help the academy get valuable resources. It's a win-win situation."
Long Chen sighed and said, "Brother Meng means that the most terrifying thing here is not the demon, but the monster?"
"good!"
Meng Fan nodded, "Although the Heavenly Demon is powerful and has opened several passages at the edge of Canglan Star, which can directly reach the battlefield of humans and demons, there are not many skilled ones who can come here at once. Here, the monsters are
It’s different, there are simply too many of them.”
Hearing this, Long nodded and picked up the wine glass, "I'd like to toast you three."
"Hahaha..." The three of them laughed and stood up to raise their glasses.
After a while, after having enough wine and food, the group followed Long Chen to Long Mansion.
"Zhi Zhi, Brother Long is really a genius in the academy. He was assigned such a huge manor when he first came here."
Meng Fan's eyes were filled with envy, and Lin Yuan and Zhao Kuo's eyes were also shining.
Long Chen smiled faintly, "It's just a manor, it's nothing."
"Guys, please!"
While talking, a group of people came to the pavilion by the lake. Long Chen stretched out his hand and several people took their seats one after another.
"Fu'er, go make a pot of tea!"
Long Chen glanced at the three girls who were about to run away to play and said.
After a while, Jin Fu put the brewed tea on the table and disappeared in a flash. Long Chen poured tea for several people himself.
"Brother Meng, did you encounter anything scary when you went into the mountains recently?"
Long Chen asked tentatively.
Sure enough, after hearing his words, the expressions of the three people suddenly changed. Meng Fan quickly picked up the tea cup, trying to cover up his gaffe, but after drinking a cup of tea, he immediately spit it out because it was too hot.
…
Meng Fan's face turned red and he looked extremely embarrassed.
"Brother Long, I just remembered that I have some things to do, so I won't bother you today!"
Meng Fan stood up, picked up Lin Yuan and the others, turned around and walked out.
When Long Chen saw this, his expression became even weirder, "It looks like there really is some secret."
But he didn't want to say it, and he couldn't force him. After thinking about it, he threw the three red fruits over and said, "Brother Meng, just think of these three red fruits as a gift from me, take them and use them."
"
Meng Fan subconsciously caught Zhu Guo, his expression was hesitant, but he seemed to have remembered something. He gritted his teeth, hugged Long Chen's fists, and said, "Brother Long, I, Meng Fan, thank you for your great kindness, but there are some things that I have to do."
