The Yaochi Holy Land was unguarded, so Xu Fei and Sister Zhao also got up, preparing to flee.
If the Yaochi Holy Land discovered they were allied with Lu Fan, it would be troublesome.
Wielding an unparalleled divine weapon, the Nine Heavens Profound Lady crossed thousands of kilometers in an instant but still saw no sign of him, causing his expression to turn grim.
"Could that brat have escaped!"
An old woman spoke, feeling displeased. With so many experts from the Yaochi Holy Land making a move, if Lu Fan truly escaped, how would the Yaochi Holy Land maintain its dignity?
"Investigate and find out who this person is!"
The Nine Heavens Profound Lady said coldly, "My Yaochi Holy Land will never compromise easily!"
"No need to investigate!"
The Saintess of Yaochi stated directly, "He is the assassin dynasty's Haotian!"
"Haotian?"
The Nine Heavens Profound Lady trembled slightly, a faint cold light surging. "Meaning, they are from the assassin dynasty?"
"That's right, he is indeed from the assassin dynasty!"
Dao Xuan spoke, "Today he came to the Yaochi Holy Land to steal the Peaches of Immortality and provoke the Holy Land's authority!"
"So it's a fellow Daoist from the Xuanguang Holy Land!"
The Nine Heavens Profound Lady chuckled, "If I remember correctly, this Haotian seems to have a deep enmity with the Xuanguang Holy Land!"
"For the past three years, I've been looking for him every moment!"
Dao Xuan stated, "I never expected him to appear and even dare to disrupt the Yaochi Grand Gathering!"
"Since that's the case, why don't you join me in capturing this scoundrel!"
The Nine Heavens Profound Lady smiled faintly, her words earnest.
"If the Yaochi Holy Land needs it, the Xuanguang Holy Land will not shirk its duty!"
Dao Xuan quickly cupped his fists, a hint of joy appearing. If they could capture Lu Fan, it would naturally be a good thing for their Xuanguang Holy Land.
After leaving the Yaochi Holy Land, Dao Xuan led the people of the Xuanguang Holy Land back to their Holy Land. Once he retrieved the peerless divine weapon, he would join forces with the Yaochi Holy Land to capture Lu Fan and the others.
Meanwhile, on a mountain peak, Lu Fan stopped, a hint of joy in his eyes. "These are the Peaches of Immortality brought from the Yaochi Holy Land. You can all try them!"
"Peaches of Immortality from the Yaochi Holy Land?"
Ghost Shadow was slightly stunned. "How does the leader have so many? If I remember correctly, each person can only have one Peach of Immortality from the Yaochi Holy Land!"
"I didn't expect you to know so much!"
Lu Fan nodded. "You're not wrong. These Peaches of Immortality are indeed one per person. However, I went to the Peach Grove, and all the Peaches of Immortality there naturally belong to me!"
Ghost Shadow held a Peach of Immortality, staring at Lu Fan in a daze, his face showing embarrassment. If it were truly as Lu Fan said, the Yaochi Holy Land would likely not let it go.
"Leader, it seems you've offended another great Holy Land!"
Peony said helplessly, "What should we do now!"
"So what if we've offended them!"
Lu Fan smiled faintly, his gaze appearing calm. "I want to see what the Yaochi Holy Land can do to me!"
"The leader is right. Even the Yaochi Holy Land can't do anything to us!"
Xu Fei nodded slightly, with a hint of arrogance. The assassin dynasty, after three years of growth, was naturally not what it used to be.
"Look quickly, it seems to be people from the Xuanguang Holy Land!"
Sister Zhao's voice rang out. Her gaze swept towards the distance, her eyes filled with solemnity.
"Prepare to attack!" Lu Fan's expression was cold. "The Xuanguang Holy Land harbors great animosity towards the assassin dynasty. Now that there's an opportunity, we must not let it go easily!"
"Leader, rest assured, none of these people from the Xuanguang Holy Land will escape!"
Ghost Shadow said, "Three years ago, the assassin dynasty suffered heavy casualties, and it was this old scoundrel's doing. Today, we must not let him off easily!"
The other members of the assassin dynasty nodded in agreement. They naturally remembered the grievances from three years ago.
Meanwhile, in the sky, Dao Xuan appeared to be in high spirits. Now that Lu Fan had appeared, he would not stand idly by and would make Lu Fan pay the price.
Letting Lu Fan and the others escape three years ago had always been a thorn in his side. Now, Lu Fan's appearance also piqued his interest.
"Supreme Elder, are we returning to the Holy Land to gather forces to deal with this person from the assassin dynasty?" an elder asked.
"Now that the assassin dynasty has reappeared, we must capture them all!" Dao Xuan said. "Only then can I be at ease. As long as the assassin dynasty is not eradicated, I will not feel secure."
"Supreme Elder, rest assured, we will follow the Supreme Elder's lead and make that person pay the price!" several elders cupped their fists, their gazes appearing earnest.
"With your words, I am relieved!"
Dao Xuan nodded slightly, not paying too much attention. At this point, how could he stand by and do nothing?
However, as they were conversing, several auras surged from not far away, causing them to stop abruptly. By the time they reacted, they found themselves surrounded.
"What a narrow encounter. I didn't expect us to meet again!"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on Dao Xuan, filled with meaning.
"I think it's not a narrow encounter, but you deliberately came to find trouble with me!" Dao Xuan narrowed his eyes. "So your trip to Yaochi this time was not to steal the Peaches of Immortality, but to deal with me, and it just backfired!"
"You know quite a lot!" Lu Fan nodded slightly. "You're right. I went to the Yaochi Holy Land merely to attend a grand gathering. I didn't intend to cause any disturbance there, it was just an miscalculation."
"So your target is me!"
Dao Xuan sneered. "Have you ever considered that acting within the vicinity of the Yaochi Holy Land would attract the attention of the Yaochi Holy Land? You might not be able to escape then!"
"My purpose for coming here today is to kill you. I won't think about the consequences!"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, his expression appearing indifferent, as if in his eyes, Dao Xuan was already a dead man.
Dao Xuan's expression was cold, and he retreated backward, feeling a sense of unease. Lu Fan wielded a peerless divine weapon, and if Lu Fan truly wanted to kill him, it would likely be as easy as turning his hand.
"Elders, it's time to lay down your lives for the Xuanguang Holy Land!"
Elder Dao Xuan spoke, "By killing this scoundrel, we can promote our Holy Land's prestige!"
The many elders of the Xuanguang Holy Land nodded and directly attacked, stepping towards Lu Fan and the others. As elders of a Holy Land, they naturally had no choice but to do so.
Seeing the elders holding back Lu Fan, Dao Xuan found an opportune moment and directly fled into the void, wanting to escape this place. Lu Fan possessed a peerless divine weapon, and if he were to confront Lu Fan directly, it might cause unnecessary trouble. He was naturally not that foolish.
Upon seeing their Supreme Elder leave, the elders of the Xuanguang Holy Land also smiled slightly, their eyes filled with disbelief. They had thought the Supreme Elder would fight alongside them, but it seemed they had been mistaken.
