When the topic of the beast tide came up, Yan Tianyang thought of the Sharp Edge Squad from five years ago.
Like Wei Cangyue, Wang Feng, the former captain of the Sharp Edge Squad, was also a talent he had high hopes for.
Unexpectedly, it ended up like that because of a sudden small beast tide.
Rumors circulated that the small beast tide was caused by human intervention, and he had sent people to investigate the matter, but ultimately to no avail.
If that's really the case, Jiang Fan would still be in some danger if he followed the Sharp Edge Squad.
Even though the Sharp Edge Squad hadn't encountered any sudden small-scale beast tides in the past five years under Wei Cangyue's leadership, it didn't mean that Jiang Fan would be safe this time.
It wasn't that he exaggerated his analysis, but rather that he inferred it based on facts.
Wei Cangyue is definitely a talented individual. Logically speaking, even if the Sharp Edge Squad did poorly under his leadership, it shouldn't be facing the current situation of disbanding.
He didn't believe that no one was secretly suppressing him.
"Regarding the Sharp Edge Squad, have you gotten any results from your investigation?"
"Over the years, I've been secretly investigating whether anyone is suppressing the Sharp Edge Squad, but I haven't found a single clue. So I guess either the person behind this is meticulous and leaves no room for error, or the Sharp Edge Squad is just incredibly unlucky, really unlucky."
Although Wei San said this, he actually leaned more towards the former, believing that the matter was not so simple.
"Therefore, I feel we can't treat it like we treated Ye Qizhen, simply sending a Ninth Rank Martial Artist."
After he finished speaking, he carefully observed Yan Tianyang.
To be honest, he was also afraid that Yan Tianyang would think that he said this in order to give Wei Jiu a chance to redeem himself.
In fact, there was still a little bit of selfishness in my heart.
After all, they are each other's closest comrades-in-arms, having gone through life and death together; it's really hard to just stand by and watch someone die.
Yan Tianyang stared intently at Wei San, his deep eyes holding an unfathomable glint that inspired both disbelief and fear.
A brief silence fell over the tent, and Wei San found it the most difficult to endure.
As time passed, Wei San's forehead began to be covered in fine sweat, which eventually gathered into large beads and rolled down his cheeks.
It landed on the ground with a "thud," breaking the deathly silence.
Finally, just as Wei San was about to succumb to the pressure, Yan Tianyang withdrew his gaze.
"Go and inform Wei Jiu to prepare in advance. If Jiang Fan dies in the Outer Wilderness Zone, he can come to me with his head."
call--
Wei San let out a heavy sigh.
"Yes, I'll go right away."
After leaving the tent, he let out several long sighs and kept wiping the sweat from his forehead.
That was terrifying!
Wei Jiu, Wei Jiu, I'm scared out of my wits because of you! If you dare not complete the mission properly, I'll be the first to kill you.
There are two sides to this story.
Jiang Fan followed Lan Shengxue to the Lan Family, stood in front of Lan Mingxi, and waited for the old man to speak.
In order to put psychological pressure on Jiang Fan, the old man deliberately dragged out the time without saying a word.
Jiang Fan knew perfectly well that the intention was to put psychological pressure on him.
It's just a test of mental fortitude, isn't it? Who's afraid of who?
So the old man and the Xiaoyan man just stared at each other, neither of them speaking first.
The atmosphere became quite awkward.
In the end, Lan Shengxue couldn't stand it any longer and broke the delicate atmosphere.
"Grandpa, just say what you want to say. It's getting late. Are you planning to have Jiang Fan stay for dinner?"
Eat shit!
Lan Mingxi muttered a curse to herself before speaking to Jiang Fan.
"Let's not beat around the bush, and I don't like beating around the bush. Just tell me, how did you get my Lan Family's Phantom Gale Leg?"
The fact that the old man didn't use the word "steal" was already the greatest respect he could show Jiang Fan.
"Would you believe me if I said I didn't use Phantom Gale Leg?" Jiang Fan said righteously.
"Do you want me to believe you or not?" The old man rolled his eyes at Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan scratched the back of his head, looking embarrassed.
"Actually, I learned it from Lan Shengxue."
That's the truth.
Lan Mingxi suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Lan Shengxue Lan Shengxue, whose beautiful eyes were filled with a myriad of expressions.
" Little Shengxue, you've hurt Grandpa so much! Grandpa trusted you so much, and you actually—you actually—lied to me and even passed on your secret martial arts techniques to this brat! What do you see in him? You like him that much? You two haven't already secretly pledged your lives to each other, have you? Oh my gosh—my precious cabbage has been eaten by a pig like this?"
Lan Shengxue had a splitting headache and glared at Jiang Fan with annoyance.
"What nonsense are you spouting? When did I ever teach you that?"
" Little Shengxue, stop acting in front of Grandpa. Just tell me honestly, how far have things progressed between you and this brat? You're not going to have a Little Shengxue for me, are you?"
As the old man spoke, he looked at Lan Shengxue's belly with a complicated expression.
Although he really wanted a little girl, not now, and most importantly, he hadn't accepted Jiang Fan yet.
"Grandfather!!!"
Lan Shengxue's lips twitched violently. If the other party wasn't her own grandfather, she would have already made a move.
Jiang Fan, standing to the side, was dumbfounded and truly admired the old man's imagination.
"I only saw Lan Shengxue use it once, but I memorized it, improved upon it, and turned it into my own unique martial art."
Jiang Fan felt that if he didn't explain, given the old man's wild imagination, he might soon say something even more shocking, perhaps even suggesting that they were hiding a child outside.
"You learned it after just one viewing? Ha! Do you think I'm a three-year-old? Even the most basic martial arts techniques are difficult to master in a short time, let alone the Phantom Gale Leg of the Lan Family, which is arguably the most superior technique."
This technique is extremely difficult to master; only my exceptionally talented Little Shengxue could have learned it. Even now, she's only scratched the surface of the second level. You claim you learned it after just one look and even improved it? Are you kidding me? Nobody believes you! If you don't want to talk, just say so. Don't try to fool this old man like this!"
Seeing Lan Mingxi's furious reaction, Jiang Fan knew he had no choice but to use his trump card.
"If Lan Family doesn't believe me, you can try using the second level of Phantom Gale Leg in front of me and see if I can learn it."
"What a boastful brat! Fine, today we'll see if you really have the ability!"
Lan Mingxi slammed her hand on the table, stood up, and walked over to Jiang Fan.
"If you can really learn it, I won't stop you from being with Little Shengxue, but if you can't learn it—"
