Upon seeing the latter's expression, President Fan was taken aback again. After a moment of contemplation, his gaze met with that of the two vice presidents beside him. He pondered for a long time, but couldn't help feeling surprised by it.

Qin Yun's words were correct. A few days ago, he had indeed been unusually close to Xiao Yan, which was seen by everyone in the entire Golden Radiance City. And the three guards beside him were indeed as he said, never leaving his side without his orders. But now, these three were surrounding Xiao Yan, and judging from their appearance, they had clearly just been in a fight. Moreover, judging from their positions, it seemed that they were intentionally trying to stop Xiao Yan.

What are they stopping?

"Could this really have been done by this kid named Xiao Yan? Even Qin Yun was used and became his protector? Xiao Yan, just who are you?"

A series of questions arose in President Fan's mind, and the two vice presidents on either side also frowned, especially Qi Ming, who felt that they seemed to have overlooked something. However, Qin Yun's words left him speechless. After all, they had witnessed Xiao Yan destroy the formation, which made it difficult for anyone to shift the blame to him.

But it was precisely because of this that Qi Ming became even more suspicious of Qin Yun's words.

"Hiss..."

Suddenly, President Fan looked up sharply, as if he had thought of something. Almost at the same time, the two vice presidents behind him also looked up abruptly, their gazes instantly falling on Xiao Yan.

"If this kid is an alchemist, then if he's a member of the Alchemist Alliance, then all of this makes sense."

President Fan's face was grim, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent. At the same time that thought arose in his mind, the two people behind him felt the same way.

The Alchemist Alliance and the Formation Master Association are sworn enemies, each regarding the other as a thorn in their side and wishing nothing more than to eliminate the other. Today, Xiao Yan took advantage of their momentary lapse in attention to destroy the array, which is undoubtedly a declaration of war by the Alchemist Alliance!

"Damn it!"

"I never imagined the Alchemist Alliance would resort to such despicable tactics to deal with us!"

"Boss, what do we do now? Let's make our move, capture that kid, destroy our city's protective formation, and make him pay the price today. If such a young alchemist dies, it will be a devastating blow to them!"

Cheng Zhihui and another vice president behind him also spoke one after another, their words filled with murderous intent.

"However... I'm still very curious. Your three guards are all Nine-Star Dou Di experts. How could they not be able to deal with a mere Five-Star Dou Di brat when they attacked together? You weren't doing this on purpose, were you?"

However, at this moment, Qi Ming, who had been silent all along, frowned, narrowed his eyes, locked his gaze on Qin Yun, and said in a deep voice the doubts in his heart.

This question truly hit the nail on the head. The moment the words left his mouth, the people around him seemed to realize something and immediately turned their gazes back to Xiao Yan. They could tell at a glance from the surging Dou Qi emanating from the latter's body that he was indeed only a Five-Star Dou Di.

" Five-Star Dou Di! This kid is actually just a Five-Star Dou Di!"

Upon seeing Xiao Yan reveal his aura for the first time, Cheng Zhihui's expression instantly turned to shock, and he couldn't help but show an incredulous look. It's no wonder that such a young Five-Star Dou Di would be favored by Qin Yun. It's just a pity that Qin Yun seems to have misjudged him.

" Qin Yun, you should give me a reasonable explanation for this matter. Otherwise, I still can't believe that he intentionally framed you."

President Fan's face darkened, and his voice still carried a strong sense of suspicion.

Indeed, normally speaking, how could a Five-Star Dou Di be a match for Nine-Star Dou Di? Even if they faced each other alone, they would not be able to resist at all, let alone face three at the same time. Considering this point alone, Qin Yun's words just now were all lies.

Therefore, how could President Fan believe that a Five-Star Dou Di could destroy the city's protective formation under the combined attack of three Nine-Star Dou Di experts? If they didn't intentionally hold back, probably no one would believe it.

Upon hearing this, the two people behind him immediately turned their gazes to Qin Yun. At this moment, Qin Yun's expression remained calm, as the current situation was entirely within his expectations.

"If President Fan doesn't want to believe it, you can always ask the other people in this square; they are all witnesses to this event."

Qin Yun gave a cold laugh, seemingly quite displeased with President Fan's suspicions.

Upon hearing this, President Fan snorted coldly and swept his gaze over the people in the square below. As he had expected, everyone whose eyes met his quickly turned their heads away, pretending to know nothing.

Whether it's the Formation Master Association or Qin Yun, these two forces are behemoths to them, and none of those present can afford to provoke them. Naturally, they will pretend they didn't see anything about what just happened.

" Qin Yun, you don't need to say any more of this useless nonsense. If you don't have a reason that can convince me, then even if these three protect you, you must stay here today!"

President Fan gave a cold shout, his body trembled slightly, and the surging Dou Qi within him immediately burst forth, rippling around him like waves.

Seeing this, Yan Hua, who was standing in front of Qin Yun, also frowned and took half a step forward. At this moment, an aura of Nine-Star Dou Di powerhouse spread outward. At the same time, Yan He and another black-robed old man on the other side also changed their expressions slightly and were about to step forward.

"Etc."

Just then, Qin Yun spoke up again, calming the group down.

"You three don't need to worry about me, just keep Xiao Yan at bay, we absolutely can't let him get away!"

Qin Yun gave a cold shout, startling Yan He and the other two. Seeing that Yan Hua made no move, Qin Yun gave an even louder command, and the latter finally retreated, joining the other two in surrounding Xiao Yan once more. Then, Qin Yun turned his gaze back to President Fan and said:

"As for President Fan, I know you don't believe what I just said, but if you think Xiao Yan is really just an ordinary Five-Star Dou Di expert, then you are very wrong."

What do you mean by that?

President Fan frowned, a sense of suspicion creeping into his heart.
