Chapter 1079 The Sacred Tower

"You brat, don't get cocky. We'll set up a barrier around the Holy City. I don't believe you can stay in the Holy City forever!" Qing Deng said coldly, his gaze fixed on Lu Fan, exuding an overwhelming aura, completely disregarding him.

Meanwhile, Lu Fan remained unfazed. "If you truly have the ability, then you can try. But whether you can catch me is another matter!"

A cold glint appeared in Qing Deng's eyes, but he couldn't act within the Holy City. He could only leave, but since he intended to make a move, he would never let Lu Fan off easily.

At the same time, Lu Fan's expression was indifferent. He didn't take Qing Deng seriously. Even without his two peerless divine weapons, the old madman alone could give them a tough time.

"Helmsman, they've blocked the road. What do we do?" Gui Ying frowned. "It won't be easy to leave the Holy City like this!"

"I know that, of course!" Lu Fan nodded. "But it's not impossible. Besides, why should we leave the Holy City? I think the Holy City is quite good, so there's no reason to leave!"

Lin Wuya's face instantly showed embarrassment at Lu Fan's words. He hadn't expected Lu Fan to say such a thing, catching him off guard.

"Little brother, you need to think clearly. If you don't want to leave the Holy City, then I'll be the one in trouble!" Lin Wuya said with a wry smile. "Although I am the Lord of the Holy City, if what you say is true, then the Holy City will likely be captured by others before long."

"Senior is joking. With your strength, how could that happen?" Lu Fan shook his head. "Even if the Sacred Land wants to attack the Holy City, they have to consider if they have the strength. Otherwise, they will be the ones to suffer losses!"

With these words, Lin Wuya felt a bit surprised. He hadn't expected Lu Fan to speak in such a manner, which caught him off guard.

"Since little brother insists on staying in the Holy City, I should fulfill my duties as a host!" Lin Wuya chuckled. "Tonight, I will host you in the Holy Tower. I hope you can arrive on time!"

"Thank you for your regard, Senior. I will definitely be there!" Lu Fan nodded solemnly, his expression becoming serious. To be invited by the Lord of the Holy City was a great honor. As for why the Lord of the Holy City invited him, even Lu Fan was puzzled. Under normal circumstances, he was just an ordinary passerby and shouldn't be treated this way.

At the same time, many people in the Holy City showed astonishment. They hadn't expected Lu Fan to receive an invitation from the City Lord. This was a very high level of treatment.

Within the Holy City, there was a forbidden area: the Holy Tower. Without a special summons, one was not allowed to enter. What surprised them was that Lu Fan could receive an invitation from the City Lord, which was a matter of great honor in the entire Holy City.

When night fell, Lu Fan, Gui Ying, and the old madman headed towards the Holy Tower, appearing quite casual.

"Are we going to eat chicken legs?" the old madman asked, looking quite greedy, as if he could already smell the aroma.

"That's right, we're going to eat chicken legs tonight!" Lu Fan nodded and smiled, his eyes filled with seriousness. He was sure there would be many delicious foods in the Holy Tower, and it would be a good choice to let the old madman have a good meal.

As they arrived at the Holy Tower, they saw City Lord Lin Wuya, who was pouring wine and smiling. "Little brother, you've finally arrived. It's a blessing for our Holy Tower to have you here for a drink today!"

"Senior, please don't say that. Just tell me what you want to say directly!" Lu Fan smiled slightly. "If I can do it, I will do my best. If I can't, I can only ask Senior to bear with me."

Lin Wuya showed a wry smile. "I believe you've already guessed why I invited you to the Holy Tower. This matter is of great importance. If you continue to stay in the Holy City, it will have a huge impact on the Holy City!"

"Does the City Lord mean to drive me away?" Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, a faint stream of light appearing, his expression becoming even more indifferent.

"At this point, I can't hide it from you anymore!" the City Lord said directly. "If you continue to stay here, it won't be a good thing. The Sacred Land will never give up, and then even the Holy City will be implicated!"

"I understand what the City Lord means. After tonight, I will leave the Holy City!" Lu Fan waved his hand. "I don't like causing trouble for others!"

Seeing Lu Fan's understanding, Lin Wuya nodded slightly, feeling very helpless. If it weren't for the Sacred Land, he wouldn't have done this. After all, this was a rule he had set. Under normal circumstances, the Holy City would not easily let people leave. Now, he was asking Lu Fan to leave, all to protect the Holy City.

"I thought the Holy City was so powerful. It seems to be nothing more than this!" Gui Ying shrugged slightly. "I'll take a look at the Holy City then."

Lin Wuya showed a wry smile. "Although my cultivation is not weak, I don't have any peerless divine weapons. If we truly come into conflict with the Sacred Land, the Holy City will be the one to be destroyed. I hope you all can understand!"

"Since the City Lord has said so, I am not a shameless person and I know what to do!" Lu Fan nodded and smiled.

The old madman sat to the side, looking quite engrossed and completely disregarding Lin Wuya. The disciples nearby also smiled. They had never seen someone eat like this. Coming to the Holy Tower, why would they care about ordinary food? The more important thing should be the person in front of them, but this old madman didn't take the City Lord seriously at all.

"Who is this person? He doesn't seem like an ordinary person!" the City Lord asked, feeling somewhat surprised.

Facing this question, Lu Fan smiled. "He is my elder brother. I hope I haven't disturbed the City Lord!"

"Little brother, you are quite humorous. I see this old man is quite old, how can he be your elder brother!" Lin Wuya said directly. "More importantly, the aura on him is extraordinary. He is likely not an ordinary person."

"Since the City Lord already knows, why ask more?" Gui Ying smiled. "The more you know, the more detrimental it will be to the City Lord!"

"Detrimental to me?" The City Lord narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean by that? I don't quite understand!"

"City Lord, you don't need to understand!" Lu Fan smiled. "This matter is of great importance, so I cannot tell you the truth. I hope the City Lord can forgive me."

The Lord of the Holy City narrowed his eyes and then smiled, his gaze appearing calm.
