Chapter 911: Chapter 911: Eliminate Ning Fan in Three Days

Su Han did not notice the change in Su Qingcheng’s mood; after returning to his study, his expression flickered between light and dark.

At first, he had indeed intended to recruit Ning Fan.

But after this battle, his opinion of Ning Fan had changed.

This fellow was simply not a being that could be controlled; trying to forcibly recruit him into his command would instead be an unstable factor.

If one day someone in the family offended Ning Fan, the entire Su Family would have to pay the price for it.

Confronted with such an instability, Su Han pondered for a long time and ultimately made a decision.

"While the people from Kunlun are here, we must eliminate him!"

For now, the relationship with Ning Fan could still be reluctantly maintained through Su Qingcheng.

If Su Qingcheng were to marry into the Kunlun, then the only link between the Su Family and Ning Fan would be gone.

If something were to happen then, he wouldn’t even have the chance to ask Su Qingcheng for help.

He couldn’t possibly go to Kunlun to pull people over, could he?

He called over a member of the Su Family and instructed, "We must not let Qingcheng and Ning Fan meet these next few days, at least not until the people from Kunlun arrive, the two must not come into contact."

At first, Su Han thought that Ning Fan already knew about Su Qingcheng being married off to Kunlun.

However, after observing for some time, he was sure that Su Qingcheng probably had not told Ning Fan about this matter.

Kunlun will send someone in three days; the commotion will surely not be small and will absolutely not escape Ning Fan’s notice.

It is precisely for this reason that in three days, it will be the best opportunity to eliminate him!

...

Meanwhile, Ning Fan and Long Yun had returned to the old temple.

"This really is a great place."

As soon as Ning Fan walked into the temple, he couldn’t help but express his admiration.

Long Yun smiled with a hint of pride, "I’m not bragging to you, but I took a long time to painstakingly select this retreat."

Ning Fan nodded, thinking no wonder your martial prowess is so formidable.

The concentration of Spiritual Energy here was the strongest he had seen in Capital City.

Although Martial Artists didn’t need to absorb Spiritual Energy for their Cultivation, cultivating in a place rich in Spiritual Energy would involuntarily change their physiques, becoming closer to that of an innate body.

At birth, humans are at their purest.

It is only later, with the consumption of grains and breathing of the impure air of the world, that impurities infiltrate the body.

Absorbing Spiritual Energy into the body could promote metabolism and expel those impurities.

Long Yun’s talent was indeed terrifying, and the benefits conferred by this secluded retreat were also significantly good.

If he had chosen any other place for retreat, Long Yun’s strength would still have increased, but certainly not as powerfully as it was now.

Without exaggeration, Ning Fan had yet to encounter a stronger Martial Artist than Long Yun.

The two arrived at the old temple’s courtyard, where an ancient locust tree stood tall, its vast canopy covering almost half the sky.

Even under the scorching sun, sitting under the tree’s crown, one could still feel the cool shade.

Long Yun took out a set of teacups, brewed the tea, and pushed one of the cups towards Ning Fan, "Young Master Ning, this is a fine tea from my private collection, please have a taste."

Ning Fan took a light sip and nodded in praise, "Excellent tea, it’s fragrant upon entry and sweet in the aftertaste."

"Hahaha, this is a fine tea I found at the summit of Mount Kunlun many years ago. I’ve cherished it for a long time, and this is the first time I’ve served it to a guest."

Long Yun laughed heartily, pleased that Ning Fan appreciated his tea.

Hearing the name ’Kunlun,’ Ning Fan’s expression shifted slightly, then he set down his teacup and said gravely, "Actually, regarding the matter of Kunlun, I have some questions to ask Brother Long."

"Speak freely."

"Brother Long, do you know where exactly Kunlun is located?"

Long Yun picked up his teacup, his face brimming with a smile, "Kunlun is certainly to the east, haven’t you ever visited Kunlun? It’s a vast mountain range that stretches thousands of miles in our Xia Country..."

Before Long Yun could finish, Ning Fan interrupted him, "Brother Long, you know I’m not talking about that Kunlun."

Upon hearing this, Long Yun’s expression changed, he slowly put down his teacup, and looked at Ning Fan seriously.

"Young Master Ning, why are you interested in Kunlun?"

Ning Fan didn’t hide anything from him and briefly told Long Yun about Ning Potian and his mother as well as his need to seek a way into Kunlun to find a method to help Xu Yourong recover her memories.

"Brother Long, therefore, entering Kunlun is imperative for me!"

Looking at Ning Fan’s determined face, Long Yun pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, "Young Master Ning, entering Kunlun is not an easy task."

"Please enlighten me, Brother Long."

Seeing Ning Fan’s insistence on getting an answer, Long Yun could only tell him about his own past experiences.

"Back then, when I had just become the top powerhouse in Capital City, it so happened that men from Kunlun came here. Those people were extremely arrogant, showing no regard for the people of the Secular World."

"Being young and impulsive at the time, I could not stand it, and so I engaged them in battle."

Although Long Yun claimed it was out of his own indignation, Ning Fan knew that the men from Kunlun must have done something extreme to provoke Long Yun.

From the look of things, given Long Yun’s stature, he would unlikely instigate conflict with Kunlun over minor disputes.

"Initially, I defeated their first group of people and thought the people of Kunlun were nothing special, so I directly followed their trail all the way to Mount Kunlun."

"But despite searching around Mount Kunlun several times, I couldn’t find where those people came from... until I encountered others they had sent later."

At this point, Long Yun’s expression carried a touch of bitterness.

Noticing the change in his emotions, Ning Fan tentatively asked, "Did you lose?"

Long Yun nodded, "I lost, and it was a crushing defeat."

"That elder only used one strike to inflict severe injuries on me. Had I not had a life-saving technique at that moment, you might not be seeing me today."
