In fact, the two choices Xu Fan gave to Feng Wu were merely meant to confuse her, and at this moment, Xu Fan had just dug a pit, and Feng Wu eagerly jumped right in.

"Senior Zhao, now can you understand who has been lying?"

Everyone in the venue looked towards the elder with white eyebrows with a few traces of confusion, after all, Feng Wu's ambiguous answer couldn't be faulted by anyone.

However, several Zhiwei Realm experts such as Old Xie were looking at Xu Fan, their eyes filled with admiration and a bit of apprehension.

This young man is terrifyingly scheming! Facing a desperate situation, he doesn't panic at all, seemingly making blunders intentionally, yet actually extremely clever!

The elder with white eyebrows sighed quietly, said nothing, waved his hand, and led the Zhao Family's many disciples towards the family's direction hurriedly.

In fact, Xu Fan's earlier words had clearly explained the risks involved. Regardless of whether the treasure was on Xu Fan's person, with all the major forces gathered, it was already impossible to take the treasure back to the Zhao Family!

Trying to force it back would only bring catastrophic disaster to the Zhao Family!

With the departure of the Zhao Family people, the rest finally came to their senses, realizing that Feng Wu had fallen into Xu Fan's trap. Feng Wu's cold face turned red with anger, yet she dared not act out, fearing being questioned about how Li Hua died.

At this moment, Feng Wu vaguely understood that her story hadn't deceived these Zhiwei Realm experts, and her days from now on would certainly become difficult...

"Hahaha! It seems everything has come to light! Since that's the case, this old man won't stay any longer! Farewell!"

Laughing heartily, Old Xie took Xu Fan with him, also leaving hurriedly, leaving behind a group of people with faces clouded in frightening darkness.

...

Zhao Family.

The elder with white eyebrows frowned tightly, his expression fluctuating.

Beside him, Zhao Tiancheng and many Zhao Family disciples showed expressions of confusion. Although they knew the treasure wasn't a cultivation technique or secret manual, even if the treasure wasn't on Xu Fan, it must have been secretly hidden by Zhao Chenglong somewhere. The elder with white eyebrows not only didn't order a search of the nearby area but instead directly led the many Zhao Family disciples back to the family.

At this moment, Zhao Tiancheng directly asked the elder with white eyebrows, "Ancestor, why don't we thoroughly search, are we just going to give up..."

"What do you understand!" The elder with white eyebrows, filled with boundless anger, directed it straight at Zhao Tiancheng.

"A bunch of incompetent fools! The treasure must be on Xu Fan! Otherwise, how can he be certain it's not a cultivation technique or combat skill? Can't you understand such a simple reason?"

Facing the elder's anger, the group all lowered their heads, but their expressions looked even more confused.

The ancestor clearly knew the treasure was indeed on Xu Fan, but why did he suddenly leave with many Zhao Family disciples? A moment ago, the Zhao Family clearly had the absolute upper hand.

After venting his anger, the elder still solved their doubts, "Earlier, people from the three Hidden World Families of Li, Dragon, and Phoenix were all there; in case the treasure was leaked, what could our Zhao Family use to resist their malice?"

The faces of Zhao Tiancheng and the others were still marked by deep resentment, "Ancestor, we have come with such a mighty force, expending a massive amount of manpower and resources, are we just to give up like this?"

"Give up? That's the Zhao Family's ancestral belonging and is the foundation of our Zhao Family, how can we give up?" The elder at this moment let out a sinister smile, "If we had stayed there before and attracted the three families' attention, it would only worsen the situation."

"And now, our target is nothing more than a mere Entering Dao Realm Peak junior! Dealing with such a junior is not an impossible task?"

After the elder's guidance, everyone finally showed expressions of sudden realization and then bowed to the elder in sincere admiration, "Ancestor, you're wise!"

The elder's face showed a bit of a sinister smile. He waved at the group, "Hasn't Zhao He been an instructor at the base for quite some years? Inform Zhao He to closely monitor this Xu Fan! Do not act first! Await the family's orders!"

...

Feng Family.

As soon as the three families had separated, the Zhiwei Realm elder of the Feng Family immediately stopped, slapping Feng Wu directly across her face.

Pah!

With furious energy, the Zhiwei Realm expert's slap instantly swollen Feng Wu's delicate face, causing her mouth to bleed.

The many Feng Family disciples around all looked bewildered, having no idea what had occurred.

"Tell me the truth of the matter! Do not overlook a single detail!"

Feng Wu, trembling, dared not show any cleverness in front of the elder, recounting the previously occurred events word for word to the elder.

Contrary to Feng Wu's expectations, even after hearing that Feng Wu did indeed kill Li Hua, the elder did not deliver a second slap on her face. Instead, with an ominous expression, he gazed in the direction where Xu Fan had departed.

The incident had already occurred, and no amount of punishment on Feng Wu could undo the mistake she committed. Moreover, punishing Feng Wu would only arouse suspicion from the Li Family.

Thus, the one who must accept punishment can only be Xu Fan!

In the elder's eyes gazing toward Xu Fan's direction was filled with blazing murderous intent.

...

On the helicopter, Old Xie and Xu Fan sat somewhat silently, both sighed in relief within their hearts.

The previous situation seemed harmless, but actually, any mistake could have led to an irreversible situation; a battle involving five Zhiwei Realm experts could have erupted, with Xu Fan being merely an Entering Dao Realm Peak. Amid the chaos, even Old Xie himself might not have been able to protect Xu Fan and might have faced the risk of falling!

Fortunately, Xu Fan spoke wisely, successfully making the Zhao Family's ancestor realize his predicament; the Zhao Family departed, and the three families stayed silent, enabling Old Xie to lead Xu Fan away from danger.

But the two only just took a breath of relief, shortly thereafter, anxiety gripped them tightly again.

This pressure came not from outside but rather from each other.

Xu Fan's earlier performance left Old Xie somewhat startled; facing a desperate situation, Xu Fan did not panic at all, remaining extremely calm and analyzing the venue's situation cleverly, ultimately convincing the Zhao Family's ancestor.

Such an occurrence likely wouldn't happen with any so-called genius, yet Xu Fan achieved it.

A month later, should Xu Fan break through into the Vajra Realm, won't he be even more monstrous?

As he watched the indifferent expression, full of calm in Xu Fan's eyes, Old Xie only felt a chill within, realizing that what he earlier witnessed might precisely be what Xu Fan intended for him to see.

For the first time, Old Xie sensed danger coming from a junior in the Entering Dao Realm.
