As Lu Fan was studying, Han Yunhai arrived, his expression somewhat grave.
"What, have you already found news about Canglong Academy?"
Lu Fan stood up. "Tell me, what exactly is the origin of Canglong Academy!"
"My lord, you may not know!"
Han Yunhai said solemnly, "The headquarters seems to intend to block information about Canglong Academy, but I have found something through some ancient texts!"
"Canglong Academy has existed since ancient times, and it is filled with martial arts powerhouses!"
"What's even more surprising is that within Canglong Academy, even ordinary members possess the strength of a Battle King, and those with outstanding talent are even Battle Emperors!"
At this point, Han Yunhai felt a chill down his spine. He was very clear about what this represented.
"Battle Emperor powerhouses?"
Lu Fan's expression was solemn. He knew very well that Canglong Academy was no simple matter, and it seemed to be true.
With just a little talent, one could possess the strength of a Battle Emperor. How terrifying was that? It meant that any member could destroy the Dragon Country.
No wonder the elders deliberately concealed it. If Canglong Academy was so powerful and somehow related to the Lu family, how could Lu Fan escape?
"My lord, this matter is of great importance. Regarding Canglong Academy, I think it's best not to investigate further!"
Han Yunhai's expression was serious. "I don't want anything to happen to you!"
"We must investigate!"
Lu Fan's expression was cold. "I must get to the bottom of this!"
"In that case, my lord, do you know how extremely dangerous this is!"
Han Yunhai's expression was solemn. "I hope my lord will reconsider and not come into conflict with Canglong Academy!"
"I know you mean well!"
Lu Fan nodded slightly. "But if I don't get to the bottom of this, I won't be able to rest easy. Things are not as simple as they seem!"
Han Yunhai was somewhat helpless, but he knew that if Lu Fan intended to do this, he naturally had his reasons.
As they were talking, Lin Ke and Jiang Meili arrived at Jiangjing Longting, accompanied by another woman. She was wearing a dress, and her demeanor and gait were no less than Lin Ke's or Jiang Meili's.
"Who is she?"
Lu Fan seemed to sense something and looked towards the woman. His gaze was sharp, and he had a bad feeling. He felt a dangerous aura emanating from the woman.
"My name is Long Yi!"
The woman spoke. "Today, I was bullied by a few men. These two sisters saved me, so they brought me here!"
"Yes, those men saw that she was beautiful and had improper intentions towards her!"
Jiang Meili said, "But I've already taught those men a lesson. It was really satisfying today."
"It's only right to help someone in need."
Lu Fan frowned slightly. "But by bringing her home, do you intend for her to stay long-term?"
"That's right. I think she's quite pitiful. She's an orphan with no means, and she's good-looking and a good person. If cultivated, she will definitely become a promising talent." Lin Ke nodded. "From now on, she will be my secretary!"
"I disagree!"
Lu Fan said coldly, looking at Long Yi. "You can leave now!"
"The two sisters are so kind, and I have nowhere to go. How can I leave so easily!"
Long Yi feigned a pitiful look. "If I leave like this, I will definitely be bullied by them!" Su Dan Novel Network
"Xiao Fan, Long Yi's background is tragic, and she's at her wit's end. Just let her stay!" Lin Ke persuaded. "I will definitely teach her well!"
Unfortunately, before Lin Ke could finish speaking, Lu Fan stepped towards Long Yi. "I'll ask you one more time, are you leaving or not? Even I can sense a threat from you. You are not an ordinary person, so how could you be bullied by a few men!"
"I am just a weak woman, and I will not pose a threat to anyone!"
Long Yi said aggrievedly, "Since you all think so, then I should leave! Lest I trouble you!"
"No!"
Lin Ke said seriously, "I brought her back. She cannot leave without my permission!"
"But..." Long Yi looked at Lu Fan.
"Xiao Fan, from now on, she will be my secretary. I need her very much!" Lin Ke said earnestly. "Besides, she has nowhere to go. If I let her end up on the streets like this, how can I bear it!"
Lu Fan was quite angered. He could feel the dangerous aura from Long Yi, and Long Yi was definitely not an ordinary person. Her proximity to Jiangjing Longting probably had other purposes.
"Since you refuse to leave, then I can only force you to reveal your true form!"
As soon as Lu Fan finished speaking, an internal force surged towards Long Yi.
With a sound, Long Yi's body exploded backward, blood trickled from the corner of her mouth, her face instantly turned pale, and she glared at Lu Fan fiercely. "I am just a weak woman. Even if I have no relatives or friends, you cannot bully me like this! I already said I wanted to leave!"
"Xiao Fan, how could you do this!"
Lin Ke said angrily, "She is my friend, how could you injure her!"
"Lord Lu, isn't this too much!"
Jiang Meili also frowned. "She's just a woman, and you actually hit her so hard!"
Lu Fan stood frozen, feeling somewhat awkward. He could vaguely sense the dangerous aura from Long Yi, but after the previous exchange, he realized that Long Yi was not a martial artist, but just an ordinary woman.
"I apologize, that was a momentary mistake!" Lu Fan said. "If you are truly not a bad person, then I naturally wouldn't have acted against you!"
"Do I look like a bad person?"
Long Yi rolled her eyes. "If I hadn't seen how kind Sister Lin is, I wouldn't have come here!"
Faced with these words, Lu Fan was speechless. He knew that whether Long Yi was good or bad, she would probably have to stay.
However, Lu Fan remained quite vigilant towards Long Yi.
After bringing Long Yi to a room, Lin Ke personally cooked several dishes. Lu Fan was cultivating in the garden, and Lin Ke did not call Lu Fan for dinner.
If it were usual, Lin Ke would have called him long ago, but she was genuinely angry about today's events.
"Long Yi, don't worry. As long as I'm here, no one can drive you away. Moreover, you will be my secretary from now on!" Lin Ke said indignantly.
"Xiao Ke, you don't need to be so angry!"
Jiang Meili said, "Lord Lu's actions were unintentional. He's just afraid that we'll be deceived by bad people!"
"It wasn't unintentional; it was practically trying to kill someone!"
Lin Ke rolled her eyes. "Long Yi is already injured."
"It's just a superficial wound, it's not serious!" Long Yi smiled. "It's always not good for me to stay. It will affect your relationship. Perhaps I should leave first!"
"That won't do!"
Jiang Meili said, "If I hadn't intervened today, you would have been defiled by those men. You can't just go out again! You should stay here from now on!"
Long Yi was very grateful. Only then did she slowly sit down and begin to eat.
Meanwhile, in the garden, Han Yunhai asked in surprise, "My lord, what's wrong today?"
