The conversation between the old Mu and Xu Fan was extremely cryptic, leaving the members of the Grey Wolf Team baffled.

Even though Xu Fan and the old Mu were very restrained, speaking with a hint of a smile, the chilling intent in their words was unsettling.

What the members of the Grey Wolf Team couldn't understand was why the four from the old Mu clearly came to save Xu Fan, yet seemed unhappy upon seeing him alive?

Moreover, from their conversation, it was clear that the old Mu and Xu Fan were not familiar with each other at all!

Previously, everyone thought that the four from the old Mu were Xu Fan's backing, which is why Xu Fan acted so confidently. But now, this notion clearly seemed unfounded.

Just moments ago, when facing Xu Fan, a surge of murderous intent was visible in the eyes of the old Mu!

"Instructor Xu, are you alright?"

Facing the Grey Wolf Team members' greetings, Xu Fan waved his hand, appearing indifferent.

The blow from the Blood Rose was indeed fierce. If Xu Fan hadn't been prepared, he might have perished from that single attack! But now, Xu Fan stood here unharmed.

The attitude of the old Mu was something Xu Fan completely ignored.

The four from the old Mu were essentially on the opposite side of Xu Fan, wanting his life, so why would Xu Fan care about their feelings? Furthermore, after days of probing, Xu Fan was fully aware of their character and knew they would never attack him impulsively.

Today's showdown concluded perfectly.

Xu Fan was unharmed, the Grey Wolf Team gained tremendous notoriety, the Family Head of the Li Family was destroyed, and the White Tiger Team fled.

Even more pleasing to Xu Fan was that he had forced the old Mu into opposing the Hidden World Families and had inflicted significant injuries on him!

This could well be the turning point that would decide Xu Fan's fate a month from now!

The members of the Grey Wolf Team wanted to say more, but Xu Fan waved them off, "Alright, this is not the place to talk, let's head back to the base first."

The old Mu had just unleashed his might, not only crushing many of the Li Family's strongmen but also causing the onlookers to flee in panic. Who's to say more powerful individuals wouldn't appear later?

Although Xu Fan was unharmed, he had almost exhausted his trump cards, and with the severe injury from the Blood Rose on his back, he could be in danger if he encountered another strong opponent.

As Xu Fan was about to lead the Grey Wolf Team away, a man and a woman approached them from the front.

Peering at the newcomers, Xu Fan's brow furrowed slightly. The person walking towards him was none other than Lan Xinyi, with whom he had clashed numerous times!

Due to misunderstandings between them, Xu Fan held no favorable feelings towards Lan Xinyi.

The young man behind Lan Xinyi gave Xu Fan an indistinctly dangerous impression.

Such a feeling, whether Xu Fan was facing the likes of Li Kun or the formidable Li Tiancheng, he had never had before.

"Wow, what a beautiful lady! It's as if she's stepped right out of a painting!"

The members of the Grey Wolf Team, who had never seen Lan Xinyi before, were dumbfounded by her striking looks and outstanding demeanor—even Xu Fan was momentarily astonished upon first seeing her, let alone the rest of the team.

"Look, she's looking at me! I'm so happy, I might faint!"

Li Tao slapped the speaker on the head, "Which eye of yours saw her looking at you? She's obviously looking at our Instructor Xu!"

The members of the Grey Wolf Team laughed boisterously, ensuring space for Xu Fan and heading back to the base first.

Since Xu Fan was fine, and such a beautiful lady was approaching, the members of the Grey Wolf Team certainly wouldn't stand there like third wheels.

Xu Fan couldn't be bothered to explain, and directly addressed Lan Xinyi coldly, "What are you here for?"

Earlier, since Lan Xinyi was among the onlookers, Xu Fan had already regarded her as an opponent, speaking with complete bluntness.

Hearing Xu Fan's unreserved words, Lan Xinyi's anger flared up.

Originally, she had come to inquire about Xu Fan's serious injuries and mend their strained relationship.

But after hearing Xu Fan's brusque question, Lan Xinyi was at a loss for words.

Earlier, upon seeing Xu Fan "dead," Lan Xinyi had been heartbroken and shed tears!

But now, despite her good intentions, Xu Fan dared to speak to her in such a manner!?

"You! What are you so cocky about? I heard every word old Mu said earlier."

Lan Xinyi had observed the old Mu's attitude towards Xu Fan very clearly! Although she still couldn't understand why the four from the old Mu would assist Xu Fan, she was certain of one thing—the so-called backing of Xu Fan was unreliable!

In fact, the old Mu even showed murderous intent towards Xu Fan earlier!

This penniless kid, without backing or power, struggling on the edge of the knife, how could he deserve Lan Xinyi's affection?

"Xinyi, why waste your breath on someone like him? Just a mere ant!"

Luo Yan came out from behind Lan Xinyi with a cold smile, standing by her side, with unabashed disdain in his eyes towards Xu Fan.

In this world, strength and cunning are important, but what's most crucial is always the background! Without a strong background, no matter how terrifying the potential, there's no room to grow!

Realizing that Xu Fan lacked any solid backing, Luo Yan lost all interest in him completely.

After hearing Luo Yan's words, Xu Fan's expression gradually turned cold.

"Have you come here just to mock me as a mere ant? If that's all, then let's not waste any more time."

"Besides, whoever is the ant isn't determined by words but by a fight!"

"If you're really interested in finding out who the ant is, you can come to the Grey Wolf Team to find me. I'm ready anytime."

Xu Fan was not someone with endless patience, especially when facing the high-and-mighty scions of the Hidden World Families.

He coldly tossed out these words and turned to walk towards the direction of the base.

Xu Fan didn't want trouble, but he wasn't afraid of it either. While Luo Yan and Lan Xinyi's status was intimidating, and Luo Yan gave him an immensely dangerous feeling...

But how could that be more dangerous than the four from the old Mu?

Xu Fan had already offended so many people; adding two more was of no consequence.

"You!"

Lan Xinyi stomped her foot in frustration as she watched Xu Fan's figure disappear into the distance.

Meanwhile, Luo Yan's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Whether Xu Fan had any backing or not, he was destined to die! Anyone Luo Yan wished dead, how could they be allowed to live?
