Legend of the Fighter (2)
Chapters... 59: The Situation of Bei Xian City
"What an unattractive appearance I have, not even once did he try to glance at me." Lan Ning muttered as she sat her body beside Zhou Fan.
Actually Zhou Fan also did not say if Lan Ning was unattractive, it was just that what was inside his head right now was just the determination to gather the beast crystals. How could he think of a woman whose wife was struggling to avoid death.
Time passed and the night changed in the morning. Zhou Fan had yet to open his eyes, but his nose had inhaled a charred scent that made his consciousness return instantly.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Fan squinted, looking at the chaos before him.
The rest of the burning scattered, even the ground turned black from burning.
"Since the teacher has helped me master the water element, this is the gift I have prepared. Who would have thought if making grilled fish is not as easy as it looks." Lan Ning showed the results of her trial.
"You're gonna kill me?" Zhou Fan looked at Lan Ning who was holding two fish skewers. There is something odd about these two fish, instead of brownish like grilled fish, it is black like charcoal.
There was no need to try Zhou Fan could already feel the bitterness of the fish meat.
"You eat alone, I don't taste." Zhou Fan let out a barrel filled with wine, gulping thoroughly.
How could he eat a charred fish, it was the same as eating firewood charcoal.
Lan Ning threw out the two charred fish in her hand, she then took out two fresh pieces from the storage ring. "I don't want to either. Teacher, this is an apple."
Zhou Fan caught Lan Ning's apple, without further ado began to bite the bright red apple.
Day after day passed, it did not feel like they had been in the eternal world for three months.
Zhou Fan who arrived suddenly felt his body was extremely heavy, glancing at Lan Ning who also looked like he was holding his legs to stay standing.
"It seems, the world of immortals will soon be closed. All the remaining people will return to their original places." Zhou Fan said while sitting his body down, he did not try to fight back, as the more resisting the pressure would get stronger.
Lan Ning followed what Zhou Fan was doing, sitting cross-legged right beside the maroon-clothed young man.
Simultaneously two halos were created above the head, roughly the same size as their body circumference.
Zhou Fan turned his head up, he guessed if it was that circle of light that would pull them out and return them according to the destination.
Slowly the eyes closed and the halo of light seemed to extend, forming a cylindrical tube that locked Zhou Fan and Lan Ning apart.
Blash....
When his eyes opened, Zhou Fan had returned to the room where he was before. Not only him, but rather Lan Ning and the other three people.
"Brother, what do you get from the immortal world?" Shao Mingrui looked excited, it seemed like the third prince had obtained something precious.
Zhou Fan only shook his head slowly, he did not get anything except some rare herbs as well as the spoils he had obtained from an old man.
But saying not getting anything was actually also not true, considering what was inside the storage ring was even more so compared to what belonged to him before.
"I got a weapon, but I can't measure how strong it is." Cheng Delai showed a dagger in a wooden box.
Zhou Fan looked at the dagger, there was indeed nothing he could measure. Usually the weapon will be seen whether it is a legendary rank weapon, epic or the one below it.
While the rank mitick weapon is a little difficult to assess, so it could be a dagger that is a rank mitick weapon, but there is also a possibility that it is an ordinary weapon.
Zhou Fan swung the night blood sword, slashing the dagger with a hint of force.
Not broken, the dagger still looks solid. If it was an ordinary weapon, it would have been broken into pieces.
"Uncle, it looks like it's a rank mitick weapon. You've found something very valuable." Zhou Fan congratulated.
Cheng Lao who heard this instantly turned his face into excitement, it was very coincidental that the type of weapon he used was a dagger.
After a while of talking about the items obtained from the immortal world, Zhou Fan returned to his room.
It had been three months that he had been in the immortal world, somehow Zhou Jim's state when he was in the territory of the Mantis Tribe.
Entering the room, Zhou Fan was greeted with a wolf howl. Without finding out he already knew that it was his wolf, Zhou Jim.
Zhou Fan swung his hand, taking out the flesh of an eighth level beast.
"That is the flesh of a sky crystal crow beast, I want to see if an ice-elemented beast can affect your appearance just like it would when absorbing a fire-elemental beast crystal."
Zhou Jim caught the meat carefully, he did not let the meat touch the floor of the room even if it was just a small piece.
Zhou Fan closed the door, but just as the door was closed the sound of knocking sounded impatient.
"Who interrupts when I'm going to rest." Zhou Fan opened lazily, when he saw that the one coming was Lan Ning, the frown on his forehead grew clearer.
"Brother Zhou, several people including the third prince were waiting. The situation in Bei Xian City is getting chaotic, this requires action."
Zhou Fan narrowed his eyes at the call coming out, but as soon as he heard the sentence after, he could not take the situation lightly.
"Take me there." Zhou Fan walked first, leaving Lan Ning still in place.
Meanwhile, in a room consisting of dozens of people, seriously discussed the matter about the condition of Bei Xian City. Because after all the territory of the Mantis Tribe was directly adjacent to Bei Xian City, what happened certainly had a big effect on them.
"One month ago, the eighth prince sent Bing Caojie to organize Bei Xian City. From that day on, Bei Xian City became very chaotic, the very high taxes had a serious impact on our tribe which made Bei Xian City a trading center ...."
" ... In addition, there were many robberies in the Bei Xian City area. In Bing Caojie's power, the city seemed to be a vulnerable place even for the residents of Bei Xian City themselves."
Simultaneously Zhou Fan came along with Lan Ning. Since Zhou Fan had gained the trust of some people, he got a high view of the people there.
Zhou Fan upon entering heard the name Bing Caojie, one of the eighth prince's subordinates. Somehow, Zhou Fan thought it was the same person as the person who had injured him last time.
"Uncle, can you expose a person named Bing Caojie?" Zhou Fan turned his head towards Lan Feng.
Lan Feng did not immediately reply, for a moment the old man fell silent.
"Bing Caojie was at the level of a three-star senior fighter, he was a dagger user."
Hearing the chief's words, Zhou Fan let out a cold snort.
Hem...
"Not wrong anymore!"
