The next day.
“Old man, is this the path towards Laoshan City?” Lin Fan blocked an old man who was carrying some heavy words.
It wasn’t that he didn’t believe his sixth sense, but it was better to ask another person.
The old man bent down, he looked like a normal civilian, “Young master, you are walking in the wrong direction, Laoshan City is there.”
Lin Fan didn’t want to say anything. When the old man pointed toward the path, he felt that something was a little off.
He had walked in the wrong direction?
I won’t accept this situation, how could I have taken the wrong path? I purposely took it to prove that sometimes people as smart as me can be wrong.
Lin Fan didn’t say anything, he wouldn’t admit that he took the wrong path. He believed that the world was round and if he walked forwards he would definitely make a round. Of course, unless one’s brain had problems, they would definitely change their path.
When the old man left, he turned his horse around helplessly. He actually took the wrong path, that was such a sad story.
“Laoshan City, I am here.”
He rose up in the air and headed towards Laoshan City.
I heard that there were enemies there.
I heard that there were rage points there too.
Although he didn’t know whether or not it was real, he had to take a closer look at it. He wanted to head back to Martial Path Mountain to continue the life he wanted, but things didn’t happen as he wished. One would often face things one couldn’t expect, which made one change their thoughts.
One could only take things step by step.
Although he was God Essence Realm, just from the secret techniques in the room, he knew that his Father was so strong that it terrified him.
However, if even such a strong father couldn’t be distracted, that was enough to show how strong his target was.
…
You City.
Lin Wanyi stayed guard beside the border. The barrier was calm and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. But occasionally, a crack would appear in it and Lin Wanyi would strike it, not giving the person a chance to pop out or even say anything.
This made the Alliance furious. Lin Wanyi was strong but he shouldn’t have been so out of hand, right?
His decisive killing without any care totally scared off Alliance.
“Why did you come again?” Lin Wanyi opened his eyes and asked towards the void.
Old Ancestor Su smiled and slowly walked out from the void, “It is so dangerous, it is just too dangerous. I can’t take it anymore. The various defense lines are problematic, only your You City is safe. I came to ask for some tips.”
Lin Wanyi didn’t care about his words, “I am guarding here, so unless I am dead, they won’t be able to take a step out. What is going on? I don’t think you came to talk to me because you are so free. If you are bored, you can help me guard here, so I can take a break.”
Old Ancestor Su said, “Sword Head has wiped out Nine Bug Gang and slashed open Nutao River. A flood drowned Fuzhou and many died. Monster Emperor is nowhere to be seen and he might be dead.”
Lin Wanyi was stunned and then said, “As expected, it is too rash. Monster Emperor wouldn’t die as he is hard to kill. As the Country Protector can you do something, like find those people working with Alliance in case they backstab us? When that happens, things will be a huge mess.”
“It is a mess, it is a total mess. Sword Head’s actions messed up all of our plans.” Old Ancestor Su said helplessly. This thing was really unexpected.
“I don’t know whether or not it is a mess, that is your problem. I just need to defend You City. Oh right, I hope that when you pass Martial Path Mountain, you can bring my son away. I don’t want him to be so close.” Lin Wanyi said. His mind was filled with thoughts about how to keep his son safe. Other things weren’t as important to him.
Suddenly.
The crack shook slightly like someone was about to come out.
The Old Ancestor Su raised his hand.
He slapped the air, adding pressure to the space. With a peng, the crack was wiped out, right away. There seemed to be a cry from inside, but all of this was not important anymore.
“Okay, when you pass Martial Path Mountain, I will bring your kid away. But if your kid doesn’t listen, can I be right?” Old Ancestor Su smiled as he asked.
In the past, when he met that fellow, he wanted to recognize this kid as his grandson, but he rejected the notion.
Zhang Tianshan said, “Last time, when you passed Jiang City, didn’t you want him to recognize you as his grandfather? Brother Lin be careful, this person wants you to be his son.”
Lin Wanyi squinted, and his expression was a little off.
Old Ancestor Su smiled, “Don’t look at me with those eyes. Don’t I think that your son is not bad and I want him to be my grandson to keep him safe? Moreover, your age is the same as my son, it is worth it, it is really worth it.”
Lin Wanyi wanted to hammer this person to death. His words were so infuriating, but he didn’t want to lower himself to his level.
“Okay, I won’t talk so much nonsense with you, and it is good that you know all of this. Be careful.” Old Ancestor Su left. He didn’t expect that someone would say out that matter so quickly. Was he trying to sow discord among the two of them?
His relationship with Lin Wanyi couldn’t be described in words, but they were really close.
…
“Is that Laoshan City?”
Lin Fan was floating in the air and he realized that Laoshan City was different from what he expected. It seemed even older and poorer than You City.
He was just looking at it from afar. There were mountains around the city but they seemed to have been damaged. From afar there seemed to be moon-like deep holes.
“An intense battle should have happened here.”
Even after some time, he could smell the scent that a battle between experts left.
He landed from the sky and walked towards Laoshan City.
This was different from the prosperous cities. There was no one around, not even a single civilian.
Not long later, his path was blocked.
“Stop, who are you?” A young man blocked Lin Fan. He held a curved blade and looked at Lin Fan warily. He seemed around the same age as Lin Fan, so he wasn’t too nervous about it.
This was an era when one paid a lot of attention to age. Young people wouldn’t be too strong. Of course, there were those who opened the Haitian Gate and their external cultivation reached a certain realm, which was why they were able to maintain their looks. They might have looked young, but they were actually old monsters.
Lin Fan looked at him and felt that his cultivation was still okay, he couldn’t be considered too terrifying. “I came from Jiang City Martial Path Mountain; I came to defend the border and fight against Alliance.”
The news he received from that person shouldn’t have been wrong.
As expected.
When he said these words, that guy’s attitude improved. Although he was wary, he put away the machete, “So, it is someone with ambitions. I am Hu Luo and I live in Laoshan City. I am now a scout, I am in charge of the few kilometers around the area…”
“Lin Fan, I am the Martial Path Mountain Sect Leader, I have only a few disciples and set up the sect randomly. But your name is quite special, Hu Nao (causing problems)…” Lin Fan laughed. It seemed like he wasn’t too strong, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been sent here.
Hu Luo looked young, but he acted a little old. He had no signs of youth on his face. After hearing what Lin Fan said, he rolled his eyes, “I am Hu Luo, not Hu Nao.”
Lin Fan smiled, “Little brother, let’s not talk about this. Why don’t you bring me to Laoshan City? I’ve just arrived, so I am unfamiliar with this place. I’ve found a few people who said they were from the Alliance and killed them. Through that, I found out about the border problem. I think that I have some skill, so I came to help.”
When Hu Luo heard this, his attitude towards Lin Fan improved. He asked curiously, “Brother Lin, you don’t look much older than me. I am 21, what about you?”
It was a little awkward.
He was actually 21, a little older than him.
“I am 22, a year older than you.” Lin Fan’s ability to lie while keeping a straight face was no joke. When he lied, one had no choice but to believe him.
Hu Luo totally believed his words and didn’t suspect anything at all. At the same time, he admired Lin Fan for bumping into Alliance people and killing them.
To him, the Alliance people should have run out of their area.
That battle was intense.
Although they were chased back, there were definitely people who snuck through.
Lin Fan and Hu Luo walked towards Laoshan City. Their short chat made Lin Fan realize that he was a good kid. When he asked questions, he would tell him everything without holding anything back.
Of course, he asked him about his love life since he was 21, but he told him that he wasn’t married yet.
Lin Fan took a look at him and understood why he hadn’t gotten married.
Maybe his conditions didn’t allow it.
His face wasn’t ugly, but it was just that some things grew on it, affecting his looks slightly.
Very quickly, they came to Laoshan City.
“Why are there so many people?” Lin Fan found it weird and was filled with disbelief. Everyone was armed. They looked like normal people, but when they held sharp blades, they looked really disproportionate to their bodies.
Hu Luo said, “We have always been living here. In the past, we had normal lives; only when danger came, then this would happen. Let me reintroduce myself, I am a second-generation person, my parents met here, and then I was brought into the world.”
“Then, they…”
“They died. They all died here, so I inherited their will and continued to defend this place.” Hu Luo smiled brightly and then said hi to the people around. They seemed really familiar with one another.
The people around sized up Lin Fan. After all, they were strangers so they needed to be a little wary.
