Chapter 126: Chapter 126 Ventilating and Informing

With a gentle wave of his hand, the twenty-one Gathering Yuan Pills flew towards Chen Fan.

He picked up one and inspected it, feeling the essence of power it contained, and couldn’t help but smile. "The power contained in this elixir is equivalent to a month’s cultivation for me."

"For an ordinary person, such an elixir could not only bring the dead back to life but also transform their body, truly a genuine Immortal Pill."

At that moment, he noticed the fragrance of the medicine filling the air and exclaimed, "Not good!"

He quickly took the jade bottle he had prepared earlier and stored all the Gathering Yuan Pills inside.

"The potency of the Gathering Yuan Pill is terrifying. Even its fragrance is far more nourishing than the finest ginseng. An ordinary person who inhales a breath or two would feel unbearably fiery and excessively virile. The girls in this hotel are likely to be quite busy this morning."

Chen Fan smiled helplessly and put away the jade bottle.

...

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, the day for the Cold Jade Marrow to mature arrived.

That evening, Chen Fan went to the Lu Family Mansion.

Lu Qiuyang led him to a room, then had Lu Qinghuan call in four experts with Great Achievement in Internal Strength, including Lin Hu and Dong Jian.

Upon seeing Chen Fan, Dong Jian’s eyes filled with endless hatred.

Chen Fan raised his eyebrows, thinking how inexplicable this man was. He hadn’t done a thing, yet this guy’s glare was as if he’d stolen his wife.

Lu Qiuyang glanced at the four men, "Gentlemen, there is an important task tomorrow. You four need to accompany me to the entrance of the Cold Cave. Our Lu Family may come across a tremendous opportunity."

Dong Jian immediately pointed at Chen Fan, "Patriarch, the Cold Cave is a Lu Family secret. It’s inappropriate for this guy to be here. Please ask him to leave."

Lu Qiuyang laughed, "The one bringing this opportunity to our Lu Family is none other than Chen Fan. He has already been to the Cold Cave, so there’s no need to worry about it."

Dong Jian’s face showed clear dissatisfaction. He had only learned of the Cold Cave’s existence after reaching Great Achievement in Internal Strength, and here was Chen Fan, who had been in Longhai for only a month and wasn’t even a member of the Lu Family, yet he was privy to such secrets, which imbalanced him greatly.

Lin Hu asked, "Patriarch, there hasn’t been any sign of Xuanming Stones in the Cold Cave for three years, what sort of opportunity could there be?"

Chen Fan spoke up, "Tomorrow, I will go to the very end of the Cold Cave and retrieve something. After that, there will be a continuous appearance of Xuanming Stones within the cave, and the amount will be several times more than before."

All four experts with Great Achievement in Internal Strength were shocked.

"Mr. Chen, you can reach the end of the Cold Cave?" Lin Hu’s eyes widened, "If I remember correctly, even the old master could only make it two hundred meters before he had to retreat."

Lu Qiuyang said with a smile, "Chen Fan is extraordinary. Last time, both Qinghuan and I witnessed his capabilities. There’s no need to worry about this matter."

Lin Hu nodded, his heart still incredibly shocked.

Dong Jian’s face was filled with envy. He thought to himself that this fellow must have stumbled upon some incredible luck to possess such strength.

He rolled his eyes and asked Chen Fan, "The treasure you’ll be retrieving from the end of the Cold Cave, is it valuable?"

Lu Qiuyang frowned slightly, clearly finding Dong Jian’s question inappropriate.

Chen Fan didn’t mind and nodded, "Indeed."

Dong Jian said, "Once you’ve retrieved the treasure, don’t forget to hand it over to the Lu Family. Don’t even think about absconding with it."

"Dong Jian!" Lu Qinghuan called out angrily.

Lu Qiuyang’s expression turned sour, "Whatever Chen Fan retrieves is his own. It’s already more than enough for our Lu Family to regain access to Xuanming Stones."

Dong Jian didn’t think there was anything wrong with what he had said, "Patriarch, the Cold Cave belongs to the Lu Family, and naturally, the treasures found within also belong to the Lu Family. We can’t let an outsider benefit from them!"

Lu Qiuyang’s face darkened, "Then why don’t you go and retrieve the treasure? If you can make it to the end of the Cold Cave, the treasures will all be yours!"

Originally, the Cold Cave had lost its value to the Lu Family, but Chen Fan managed to make the Xuanming Stones reappear in the cave, and the quantity would double no less, which already was a great opportunity for the Lu Family.

After all, Chen Fan was the only one who could reach the end of the Cold Cave, and it was already very generous of him to offer any benefits.

Therefore, he hadn’t even asked Chen Fan what lay at the end of the Cold Cave.

As a result, Dong Jian’s ignorance infuriated him profoundly.

Dong Jian still didn’t understand Lu Qiuyang’s intent, "If I can make it to the end alive, I will definitely hand over the treasures to the Lu Family!"

Lu Qiuyang felt like hitting someone, "Can you make it to the end alive?"

Dong Jian shrank his neck, "No."

"Then why are you wasting your breath here!" Lu Qiuyang, for the first time, felt repulsed by his own disciple, "Forget it, you don’t need to go tomorrow. Lin Hu and the other two will come with me."

Dong Jian immediately widened his eyes, "Master, you..."

Lu Qiuyang scolded, "Shut up! I don’t want to talk to you right now."

Dong Jian glared at Chen Fan, full of hatred on his face, as he believed that it was all because of Chen Fan that his master had developed such a bias against him.

Lu Qiuyang turned to Lin Hu and the other two, "Now that the old patriarch is in seclusion, to avoid the Qi Family, the Chu Family, and the Wu Family catching wind of this, we must keep it a secret, understood?"

Lin Hu and the other two responded in unison, "Yes!"

"Alright, you can all leave now." Lu Qiuyang looked at Dong Jian, "You stay in the mansion the next few days to keep watch and go nowhere. Reflect on yourself!"

Dong Jian clenched his fists tightly but ultimately said nothing, turning around and walking out.

In the courtyard, Dong Jian let out a long howl toward the sky, "Chen Fan, you took away the woman I loved the most, and now you caused my master to be prejudiced against me, I hate it!"

His eyes were filled with bloodshot veins, conveying an impulse to seek revenge on Chen Fan right away.

But he understood that Chen Fan was a Grandmaster, and seeking revenge in such a state was no different than seeking death.

After a long while, Dong Jian finally calmed down, his face revealing a cold smirk, "I may not be able to defeat you, but that doesn’t mean I have no way of dealing with you."

"Since you’re unwilling to hand over the treasures from the Cold Cave to the Lu Family, then you shouldn’t think about getting them either!"

Thinking this, he took out his phone and composed a very long text message, sending it separately to the Qi Family’s patriarch Qi Rufeng, Chu Family’s patriarch Chu Batian, and Wu Family’s patriarch Wu Xing.

The Qi Family, Chu Family, and Wu Family were also martial arts families of Longhai City.

The patriarchs of the three families had all reached the Grandmaster Realm.

The only reason the Lu Family was considered superior in reputation and ranked among the top three martial arts families was the existence of the Lu Family’s patriarch, a Grandmaster in the Transformation Realm.

Below the Transformation Realm, all are ants.

Therefore, no one dared to disrespect the Lu Family.

However, with the old patriarch of the Lu Family in seclusion and treasures emerging from the Cold Cave, these three families, upon receiving the news, may not refrain from taking a chance.

After a long wait, Dong Jian received replies from the three families, his face exhibiting an expectant smile, "Chen Fan, even if you’re a Grandmaster, what will you do when faced with the joint attack of three Grandmasters? I look forward to seeing how arrogant you can be then!"
