Chapter 180: Chapter 180 The Powerful Flame Dragon Organization_1
“If I have the chance, I definitely want to meet the people on that prestigious list,” Xu Fan said with the faintest of smiles.
These individuals were the strongest martial artists of the young generation in Yan Country. Mo Luo Dan spoke of them with such respect that it sparked a hint of interest in Xu Fan.
He wondered just how powerful these exceptional geniuses were.
“Young Master, with your strength, you’re definitely not inferior to the top five on the list of heroes. If you want to enter the rankings, I can help,” Mo Luo Dan offered eagerly, seeing that Xu Fan was interested.
“I’m not interested in entering the list. I’m just curious about the people on it,” Xu Fan said with a slight smile.
“Curious about people?” Mo Luo Dan’s eyes swiveled, noting that the list included only one Ye Xinyu, a stunning beauty. He knew countless young martial artists wished to prostrate themselves before her. Perhaps Xu Fan’s interest was in Ye Xinyu’s favor?
After pondering for a moment, a suggestive grin formed on Mo Luo Dan’s face. “With your strength, Young Master, conquering her would not be a problem. It’s just that the Head of the Ye Family, Ye Qingyun, has a terrible temper. I suspect it won’t be easy to gain his approval.”
“What…” Xu Fan was completely baffled.
“Aren’t you interested in Ye Xinyu, the number one beauty of the Ancient Martial World?” Mo Luo Dan was also confused by Xu Fan’s question.
“Damn it, I said I was interested in their strength on the list of heroes…” Xu Fan said, at a loss for words.
“Ah, my apologies, Young Master. My mind wandered off track…” Mo Luo Dan hastily apologized.
Attempting to curry favor but hitting the wrong note could easily anger one’s master. Nevertheless, after giving it some thought, Mo Luo Dan felt relieved. Although Xu Fan was exceptionally strong, he had never actually met Ye Xinyu. To him, Ye Xinyu was nothing more than a name.
Those who had actually seen Ye Xinyu had been captivated by her unparalleled beauty. Every upright gentleman became a pretentious moralist before meeting her, but upon laying eyes on her, they couldn’t wait to become bootlickers.
Among the top 100 on the list of heroes, at least sixty to seventy percent harbored thoughts about Ye Xinyu, but she paid no attention to them. And the top few on the list were purely into martial arts; they were fools for the discipline, with no interest in the opposite sex.
Mo Luo Dan cautiously glanced at Xu Fan and thought to himself, “The Young Master couldn’t possibly be one of those…”
“Mo Luo Dan, among today’s martial artists, there seem to be many stirring up trouble. Can the top disciple of Shu Mountain Sword Sect really handle them all?” Xu Fan brought up another concern and asked Mo Luo Dan.
The martial artists he had encountered so far, like the earth, water, fire, wood, and metal siblings following Song Qiang at Jin Hui Company’s arena, were clearly not rule-abiding. Then there was Gui Sheng Twelve, a practitioner of wicked techniques, not exactly a good sort either. Even Mo Luo Dan himself was the type to kill at the drop of a hat, seeming no better. Could the Martial World really rely on the justice-loving Li Tianfan of Shu Mountain to discipline these unruly fighters?
“Master Xu, what you may not know is that in the Ancient Martial World today, aside from the sects and clans of martial artists, there’s an extremely powerful department under official control, the Flame Dragon Organization. The officials dare to let the martial sects and clans grow in power because they have control over this even more formidable organization. Even if the combined strength of the Six Great Martial Arts Noble Houses were added up, they couldn’t confront the Flame Dragon Organization,” Mo Luo Dan said, a serious expression flashing in his eyes, suggesting a deep apprehension of the organization’s operatives.
“Is the Flame Dragon Organization really that formidable? Strong enough to suppress the Six Great Houses?” Xu Fan asked, a bit surprised.
It could be seen from the heroic rankings that these six houses truly had an abundance of talented individuals and tremendous strength. If the Flame Dragon Organization could withstand the six houses on its own, what a massive organization it must be.
“Absolutely!” Mo Luo Dan asserted without hesitation, “There have been martial sects and clans that have challenged the Flame Dragon Organization before, but without exception, they were all obliterated. When Yan Country was first established, there weren’t just the Six Great Houses in the Martial World, but ten. However, three of them were demon sects that cultivated evil practices, and one allied with foreign martial artists, attempting to overthrow Yan Country. In the end, The Flame Dragon Organization clashed with these four great houses in a massive battle, and then, well, there was no ‘then’. Now, the Ancient Martial World of Yan Country only has the remaining Six Great Houses, and no martial force dares to openly defy or provoke the Flame Dragon Organization anymore,” Mo Luo Dan said gravely.
“It seems that Yan Country really is a place full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. I didn’t know it before, but now it seems that the Martial World of Yan Country is quite bustling,” Xu Fan said with a faint smile on his lips.
“With Master Xu’s inscrutable strength, you are sure to become legendary in the Martial World,” Mo Luo Dan said earnestly.
This wasn’t mere flattery; it was a genuinely heartfelt statement.
Xu Fan was young, yet his cultivation was so advanced, coupled with his miraculous alchemy skills. Giving him a set of Law Techniques turned out to be dozens of times more powerful than the Mo Luo Sect’s town-defining secret art. A person with so many resources, even if he wished to remain unknown in the Ancient Martial World, would shine brilliantly like the moon in the dark.
As they talked, the two had arrived at the foot of the mountain. Xu Fan saw the off-road vehicle driven by the two foreigners and instructed Mo Luo Dan to erase all traces of the vehicle.
Mo Luo Dan wasted no words, driving the vehicle to the edge of a cliff on Yulong Mountain. With a mighty palm imbued with the strength of Jin Gang, he pushed the vehicle over the edge with a single slap. After a short time, a thunderous crash echoed as it hit the ground.
After disposing of all traces of the two foreigners, Xu Fan called Mo Luo Dan to his Audi S7 and began the return trip to Zhonghai City.
This time, Xu Fan intended to visit the famous antique street in Zhonghai City. After feeling the pressure from the Assassin Alliance mentioned by the two foreigners, Xu Fan was extremely concerned about Tongtong’s safety. Although he already had a Ben Ben and a Mo Luo Dan for protection, he still wasn’t reassured and planned to refine another protective artifact for Tongtong.
For Xu Fan, crafting artifacts was a simple matter. Back when he was the Five-Direction Heavenly Emperor, his strength was immense, and he was a top expert in alchemy, artifact refinement, pet nourishment, and array setup in the Cultivation World. Crafting magical treasures was a trifle for him.
However, the materials required for crafting artifacts weren’t easy to find. On Sea Blue Star, a planet scarce in Spiritual Energy, the only crafting material Xu Fan could think of was jade stones.
Jade stones can harbor Spiritual Energy and effectively preserve the arrays that Xu Fan carves. For refining Spiritual Treasures or setting up arrays, jade stones are essential.
And what there was no shortage of on the antique street were jade stones.
