“But that alone is not enough!”
Lu Fan said coldly, “You must swear to the heavens that you will not reveal this matter, otherwise I will not believe you!”
“I swear to the heavens, I will never speak of this!”
Bai Yu raised his arm, “If I break my oath, may the heavens and earth destroy me!”
Lu Fan was quite satisfied. Once cultivators swore an oath, they would not break it, because if they did, they would suffer the power of the Heavenly Dao, which was an extremely terrifying force that even cultivators could not resist.
“Can I leave now?”
Bai Yu asked tentatively. In front of Lu Fan, this god of death, his usual aloofness was completely gone.
“You still have to agree to one condition!”
Lu Fan said coldly, “Otherwise, you will still die!”
“Please speak, as long as I can do it, I will definitely agree!” Bai Yu said repeatedly.
“After I leave, look after Niutian Village!”
Lu Fan said, “They are just ordinary people, and I don’t want to see them harmed in any way!”
“This is easy!”
Bai Yu quickly nodded, “From now on, Niutian Village will be under my protection, and nothing will happen within Qingshui Town.”
“Remember what you said!”
Lu Fan said coldly, “If I return one day and the people of Niutian Village suffer any grievances, you might not be able to keep your life!”
Bai Yu nodded solemnly, and was even more helpless by Lu Fan’s words.
Now, no matter what condition Lu Fan asked for, he had to agree, otherwise he would die an unnatural death, which was not what he wanted.
After Bai Yu left, Lu Fan came to the old village chief and at the same time channeled spiritual energy to him.
“It’s all my fault for implicating Niutian Village!”
Lu Fan said, “If I had come a step earlier, the old village chief would not have been so severely injured!”
“Immortal Lu has the grace of re-creation for Niutian Village, so why should you be so guilty!”
The old village chief said solemnly, “Moreover, Mr. Lu always considers Niutian Village. How can Niutian Village bear this!”
“This is what I should do!”
Lu Fan smiled slightly, “Now that the matter is resolved, I must really leave!”
“We respectfully send off Immortal Lu!”
The people of Niutian Village all knelt down with expressions of awe. If Lu Fan had not risked his life to save them, they would have faced disaster today.
However, with this experience, they could tell their descendants in the future that there was once an immortal in Niutian Village, which was extraordinary.
After Lu Fan left, Jiang Dahe helped the old village chief, “Old village chief, you must take care of your health. You are so old, and if anything goes wrong, it will not be worth the loss!”
“Of course I know this!”
The old village chief nodded slightly, “However, I have an idea to change Niutian Village to Luxian Village to commemorate the kindness of Immortal Lu!”
“Luxian Village?”
Jiang Dahe was slightly stunned, then overjoyed, “This name is not bad, and it can also commemorate Immortal Lu!”
“Since that is the case, it will be called Luxian Village from now on!”
The old village chief nodded slightly, looking quite satisfied.
“Dad, will Immortal Lu really not come back again?”
Dahu blinked his eyes, with a look of yearning. The villagers of Niutian Village had developed strong feelings for Lu Fan during their time together, and they were truly reluctant to see Lu Fan leave.
“Although Immortal Lu has left, he lives on in our hearts!”
Jiang Dahe said, “If you want to see Immortal Lu, then you must study diligently and become a powerful immortal like Immortal Lu, so that you can see Immortal Lu!”
“Then I will definitely become a powerful immortal in the future!”
Dahu nodded slightly. Although he was ignorant now, he had a great aspiration.
After leaving Niutian Village, Lu Fan did not rush on his way. Instead, he found a secluded place on the mountain to carefully study the beggar’s footwork.
He now realized that in this spiritual realm, no matter where you went, you needed powerful strength, otherwise you would only be bullied, and might even be in danger of losing your life.
After staying on the mountain for three days, Lu Fan’s movements became extremely strange. He could even shrink the ground into an inch and travel a thousand miles in a day.
With such agile movements, even if he encountered a stronger existence than Lu Fan, Lu Fan would not have to fear him.
“Xiao Fan, do you think Long Yi and the others might be in Qingshui Town?”
Lin Ke said, “We have been in Qingshui Town for the past few days, but we haven’t seen them.”
“The spiritual realm is so vast!”
Lu Fan said with a wry smile, “Since we have already separated, it is quite difficult to find them! But don’t worry, with our talent, we will definitely grow up. It will not be a bad thing to meet at the peak then!”
Lin Ke nodded solemnly, and then felt relieved. He quite agreed with what Lu Fan had said.
“Next, I need to go to Baishui City!”
Lu Fan said directly, “After all, a person must be trustworthy, otherwise, how can I not辜负 their good intentions!”
“That’s true!”
Lin Ke nodded, “After all, no matter what, ten taels of silver allowed you to get so many cultivation techniques. It’s only right to offer yourself in return!”
“Cough cough… Xiao Ke, you’re joking with me again!”
Lu Fan coughed a few times, and then arrived at Qingshui Town. In a utensil shop in Qingshui Town, Lu Fan looked around and finally saw a map.
“Sir, what do you need?”
The shopkeeper walked over, “Our utensil shop has everything, as long as you have money!”
“I don’t have money!”
Lu Fan said awkwardly, “I just want to ask for directions, how do I get to Baishui City?”
“Baishui City is always to the east!”
The shop owner said, “If you really don’t have money, I’ll give you a map!”
The shop owner unceremoniously handed the map to Lu Fan.
“Why is this?”
Lu Fan was surprised, “We are not related, why are you helping me?”
The shopkeeper looked around, then whispered, “Young man, you are wearing a sword, and you are no ordinary person. I assume the death of Zhao Dalei was your doing, right!”
Lu Fan was slightly stunned. He had not expected the shopkeeper to say such a thing, which left Lu Fan speechless.
“Now that you need a map to leave, I naturally cannot accept your money!”
The shopkeeper said seriously, “You have removed a scourge for our Qingshui Town!”
Lu Fan smiled awkwardly, “You might have mistaken me, I am not the person you are talking about!”
After saying that, Lu Fan picked up the map, “But no matter what, thank you for the map!”
When Lu Fan left, the shopkeeper looked confident. He had been doing business in Qingshui Town for so many years and had never seen Lu Fan before. No one in Qingshui Town dared to lay a hand on Zhao Dalei, so the culprit was obvious.
It was just a map, he could afford to lose money. Even if Lu Fan was not the person he said he was, it didn’t matter.
