"Are you Lu Fan?"
The elder at the forefront narrowed his eyes, his imposing aura vast.
"Indeed, I am Lu Fan!"
Lu Fan nodded. "Lord Heavenly God, is there something you require?"
"I am the Law Enforcement Heavenly God. Zhang Feng died by your hand last night!" the Law Enforcement Heavenly God inquired.
"That is correct."
Lu Fan nodded slightly, his tone even more placid, as if this were no significant matter in his eyes.
"If that is the case, you should know the consequences of killing a disciple of Yuqing Mountain!"
With a calm expression, the Law Enforcement Heavenly God directly asked.
"Of course, I know!"
Lu Fan nodded. "However, I did not strike first. According to Yuqing Mountain's rules, if the one who strikes first meets an untimely end, it has nothing to do with me!"
"Who do you think you are? Just because you didn't strike first, you can slay my brother?"
Zhang Sihai's voice was icy as he looked at Lu Fan. "With the Law Enforcement Heavenly God present today, you cannot escape!"
The Law Enforcement Heavenly God closed his eyes, awaiting Lu Fan's explanation.
"Previously, I was a disciple of the Miscellaneous Affairs Room and might not have had the authority, but now I am a disciple of Yuqing Mountain!"
Lu Fan smiled slightly, producing a jade token. "Moreover, I am the personal disciple of Heavenly God Rufeng. If someone attacks me, and I kill them, it seems within reason!"
"Heavenly God Rufeng's personal disciple?"
The Law Enforcement Heavenly God seemed puzzled, then sighed. "Since you are Heavenly God Rufeng's personal disciple, and someone attacked you, you killing them does not violate Yuqing Mountain's rules!"
"Law Enforcement Heavenly God, how can this be?"
Zhang Sihai frowned. "Must my brother die so tragically? As his brother, I cannot seek justice for him!"
"Justice?"
The Law Enforcement Heavenly God chuckled. "In Yuqing Mountain, there is the Life and Death Arena. You can resolve it there. However, according to Yuqing Mountain's rules, he is in the clear, so even the Law Enforcement Department cannot do anything to him!"
His eyes filled with coldness, Zhang Sihai's hands trembled with anger.
"Very well, if there is nothing else, I shall take my leave."
The Law Enforcement Heavenly God waved his hand. "Remember, you cannot act arbitrarily within Yuqing Mountain, or you will be violating regulations!"
"This disciple obeys!"
Zhang Sihai cupped his fists slightly, his gaze sharp. According to Yuqing Mountain's rules, one could not act arbitrarily here, but there was the Life and Death Arena.
With this thought, Zhang Sihai looked at Lu Fan. "Do you dare to compete with me in the arena? I will make you pay the price!"
"If I'm not mistaken, you are at the third level of the Divine Arrival Realm!"
Lu Fan shrugged. "If I were to accept the challenge, wouldn't I be destined to die by your hand!"
"So you wish to be a coward!"
With immense fury, Zhang Sihai spoke again, his tone becoming even colder.
"You are correct, I wish to be a coward!"
Lu Fan smiled faintly, his gaze growing more indifferent, as if everything were within his control.
Upon hearing this, everyone was incredulous, naturally not expecting Lu Fan to speak in such a manner.
After all, those who reach this stage are all people with boundless aspirations; how could they admit to being cowards.
"You are the most shameless person I have ever met!"
Zhang Sihai said coldly. "You dare not go to the Life and Death Arena with me, which means you are afraid!"
"It matters not. If I want to go, I go. If I don't want to go, I don't go!"
Lu Fan shrugged. "What can you do to me!"
"Good, good, good!"
Zhang Sihai laughed in anger. "I will make you pay. Although I cannot touch you within Yuqing Mountain, your friends in the Miscellaneous Affairs Room are not so fortunate. They might soon die by my hand!"
"You dare!"
Lu Fan's eyes instantly turned cold, filled with killing intent. He valued those in the Miscellaneous Affairs Room greatly and could not tolerate any harm coming to them.
"See if I dare!"
The corner of Zhang Sihai's mouth curled up. He showed no restraint, as if everything were within his control.
Lu Fan's expression darkened. He did not want his affairs to implicate the Miscellaneous Affairs Room, but it seemed it was not that simple.
Some time later, Lu Fan arrived at the Miscellaneous Affairs Room and found everyone safe and sound, which greatly relieved him.
"What's going on? Why are you back?" Zhao Xiaoyu smiled. "You are now a disciple of Yuqing Mountain, your status is different from ours!"
"How is it different? You are my friends, is there a problem!" Lu Fan shrugged. "I came today because there is something. Zhang Feng's elder brother, Zhang Sihai, might act against you, so I came personally!"
"But no one has come to cause trouble," Zhao Xiaoyu shook her head. "Moreover, Heavenly God Rufeng is above us, so he wouldn't dare to act recklessly. You don't need to worry too much!"
"That would be for the best!"
Lu Fan nodded. "Since there's nothing else to do in Yuqing Mountain, I'll stay and guard the Miscellaneous Affairs Room for a few days!"
Zhao Xiaoyu wanted to say something more, but ultimately closed her mouth. Since Lu Fan had said this, it was enough to show that he had made up his mind, and anything further she said would be of no benefit.
After staying in the Miscellaneous Affairs Room for several days and seeing that Zhang Sihai had not appeared, Lu Fan finally felt at ease and could return to Yuqing Mountain with peace of mind.
Upon returning to Yuqing Mountain, Lu Fan continuously absorbed divine power, seeking to break through to the next realm as quickly as possible.
For he knew very well that the Divine Realm was more terrifying than other realms. Without sufficient strength, he might only become a foil for others, or even be unable to seek justice.
He saw this point very clearly.
After several tens of days, Lu Fan's aura became exceptionally terrifying. His entire body seemed to spiral upwards, as if he had reached a state of self-forgetfulness.
"What's going on? Why is the divine power of Yuqing Mountain fluctuating? Is someone about to break through?"
In a palace hall, several Heavenly Gods sat together, their hearts filled with surprise. Under normal circumstances, it should not be like this.
"Could it be that kid!"
Heavenly God Rufeng exclaimed in surprise. "I didn't expect him to show signs of breakthrough in just a few days. It seems he is indeed a favored child of heaven. Yuqing Mountain will have another prodigy in the future!"
"Are you referring to the disciple you mentioned?" the Law Enforcement Heavenly God smiled. "Indeed, he is young and promising. Having just ascended to the Divine Realm, he was able to kill someone at the second level of Divine Arrival."
Facing these words, Heavenly God Rufeng also smiled lightly, feeling a sense of relief. Taking Lu Fan as a disciple seemed like a good choice.
At the same time, atop Yuqing Mountain, Lu Fan's surging aura directly broke through the second level of Divine Arrival, pressing straight towards the third.
