After refining the Ghost Gu Insects, Xu Fan had been focusing on resting in this small farmhouse.
It wasn't that he wasn't afraid of death or unwilling to refine other Gu insects for a better chance of winning. It was simply that the powerful Gu insects documented in the Ghost Gu Secret Art were too troublesome to refine.
Finding the necessary poisonous insects within dozens of miles around was difficult.
And there was the issue of time, which simply wasn't on his side.
Despite facing a formidable enemy, Xu Fan remained calm, with his usual strong heart.
He enjoyed listening to the wind, admiring the moon, and comprehending the Nine Heavens Sword Technique, utterly content.
During his rest, he even had time to chat with Miaomiao and the others.
With no internet in the suburbs, watching live streams was out of the question. Therefore, to ensure fair treatment for herself, Miaomiao had taken a few days off and had specially become his chatting companion.
If Brother Qianfan can't watch my streams, then no one else gets to either.
Such a reason for pigeonholing...
"Hmm?"
The ringing of the phone that had been set aside pierced the quiet, and Xu Fan, standing at the courtyard, sheathed his Yanluo Sword and walked over.
"Boss, the Ke Family has already brought people over, and Ana Dan is with them."
This brief message, clearly sent by Han Dongxu, caught Xu Fan's attention as he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Ana Dan is here too?
Perfect, he would deal with them all at once!
It wouldn't take long for the Ke Family to bring their men to attack, and right now Xu Fan went inside the small farmhouse to bathe and change. Then he began waiting quietly.
Half an hour passed, and suddenly the roaring sound of engines thundered outside the house. Xu Fan stood up, opened the door, and looked out.
He saw a grand convoy of hundreds of vehicles snaking its way toward him from a distance!
Leading at the very front was a Hummer with a license plate of 8888.
Those who had spent time in H city knew that these four eights were one of the license plates collected by Ke Longxiang.
About a hundred meters away, the grand convoy split into two and drove around the back of the farmhouse.
Effectually, they surrounded this humble country building, sealing it off completely!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
One after another, the sounds of car doors opening echoed, and from the vehicles menacing enforcers jumped out one by one.
All were armed with lethal weapons and as they leapt from the cars, they became fully alert.
All this show of force for him, a man gravely injured?
Xu Fan couldn't help but chuckle. The Ke Family really did take him seriously.
With a bang, the door of the Hummer parked in front of the farmhouse opened, and Ke Longxiang, dressed in Armani, stylishly hopped out.
At this moment, his face was brimming with triumph.
After guiding his mother down from the vehicle, Ke Longxiang's cold gaze turned to Xu Fan, who stood alone at the entrance of the building.
"Hmph, Mr. Xu, it seems we meet again!"
"Today, I want to see where you can run."
Now, having rallied the entire underground forces of H city with all their elite troops!
Xu Fan had only one choice now!
That was to kneel and beg him for mercy!
"With so many distinguished guests arriving, it would be rather rude of me to run, wouldn't it?"
Xu Fan looked indifferently at Ke Longxiang, then his gaze shifted past him and his mother to the row of people waiting behind them.
Aside from Han Dongxu, the heads of all the major and minor forces in the vast underworld of H city were almost all present.
Among these, aside from giving face to the Ke Family, many at this moment are probably coveting my Lingyan Pavilion.
"Humph, Xu Fan, you really think highly of yourself, huh?"
"Can you still manage to laugh in such a situation?"
Thousands of people, even if each spit only once, would be enough to drown that Xu surname. Ke Longxiang was now coldly watching Xu Fan, his eyes stirring with emotion as he silently swore to himself that later, he must thoroughly humiliate this guy and get revenge for all the previous humiliations!
"Since everyone's here, why don't all you bosses come inside with me for a cup of tea? Let's sit down and have a proper talk?"
Xu Fan was leaning against the wall at this point, his gaze sweeping over the people in front of him who could represent H city's underworld forces, and he spoke.
As soon as his words fell, no one stepped forward, but instead, they kept watching him warily.
It seemed as though they believed that by following him into the building, they would risk their lives.
"Big bosses, the fact that thousands of you have come in force, but in the end, you're still afraid of just me? The thing that you've got down there, it wouldn't happen to be fake, would it?"
"You little bastard! Dare to talk to your Uncle Xiao like that?"
"Do you freaking believe that I can kill you right now?"
The blatant mockery, as soon as the words ended, spurred a cacophony of curses from all around, each person hurling insults one after another.
The clamor of nearly a thousand people was incredibly grating on the ears. At that moment, one could see Anadan in the crowd gesturing with her hands.
The arguing gradually died down among the crowd.
Before coming here, they had repeatedly confirmed that there was no activity from Jinling's side. Xu Fan couldn't possibly have any troops hidden inside with him at this point.
Besides, how many people could this building even hide?
"Xu Fan, fine, we'll go inside and have a good talk with you."
Anadan said and then gave a sideways glance, signaling the few experts raised by the Ke Family to follow her and Ke Longxiang as they approached.
"This..."
Recently, this kid had caused quite a commotion in H city, so they were indeed very wary of him.
But now, even the only woman present had already gone over. If a bunch of grown men continued to hover around here indecisively, it would be quite embarrassing...
Not to mention, they came here also hoping to carve out a piece of territory from Jinling's side for themselves.
"Humph, kid, let's see what tricks you can play!"
In an instant, each of them, leading their respective experts, walked towards the building.
Xu Fan, watching all this, turned and led the way into the house.
Once inside the living room, Xu Fan took a seat in the main chair and watched as everyone filed in, cautiously scanning their surroundings. He couldn't help but squint his eyes.
They are indeed a bunch of old foxes...
In the room, there wasn't even any lavish furniture to speak of, let alone a place to hide people. After a few glances, the crowd relaxed a bit.
"Gentlemen, please take a seat. It's a small place, so don't mind it too much," Xu Fan said, waving his hand to the onlookers, gesturing them to sit.
Before the big bosses sat down, Ke Longxiang suddenly kicked over a chair with a fierce movement.
"You Xu surname!"
Ke Longxiang, with a fierce look on his face, said to Xu Fan, "We surely will sit, but you, you don't have the right to!"
Now that he was surrounded, if they wanted, killing him would be no harder than squashing an ant!
And he still dares to sit in the main seat giving orders?
Does he have the right to do so?
Ke Longxiang then stretched out his hand and pointed to the floor beneath his feet, saying fiercely, "Xu surname, today is not your turn to be the host!"
"If you want to live a little longer, you'd better roll back here and kneel down nicely!"
