Chapter 574 - Three Way Meeting (2)

When the two girls behind him saw this, they both revealed faint smiles that almost seemed like they knew something that Lin Fan didn't.

The thugs came right up to their group and stopped in front of Lin Fan.

In fact, they didn't even stop at first and were about to move past Lin Fan to come up beside the girls, but Lin Fan had pulled out his sword to cut a line in the ground.

After this line appeared, he said in a low voice, "Pass this line if you dare."

The thugs were taken aback when they heard this, as if they didn't expect this at all. After being surprised, they turned to look at the two girls with looks that almost seemed like they were asking them for help.

Lin Fan was completely confused by this, but this wasn't the time to think about this since the most important thing now was to protect the two girls.

But then Mao Tao came forward to tap Lin Fan on the shoulder before saying, "It's fine, let them through."

Lin Fan was even more confused when he heard this and he said, "But…"

Qiao Yi Fei cut him off and said, "She said that it's fine, so it's fine."

Lin Fan had a bitter look on his face and he turned to look at the thugs, but sensing that there was no killing intent coming from them, not even any hostility coming from them, he moved aside in the end.

The thug looked at Lin Fan with a weary look before passing since the pressure that he had placed on them earlier was real, but they came over to where Mao Tao was still.

One of the thugs that seemed to be the leader of the group leaned in to whisper something in her ear before secretly handing her something. Others might have missed this, but with Lin Fan's senses, it was hard to miss it.

Then after handing the thing over, the thugs didn't even look back as they went off in their own separate directions, joining the other groups of thugs that were also hanging out in this valley. Once they joined those groups, all those groups headed off in different directions before disappearing without a trace, leaving only the three of them in this alley.

Lin Fan saw all of this and then turned to ask Mao Tao, "So they all work for you?"

Mao Tao just nodded with a smile.

Lin Fan shook his head with a bitter smile, "Is it fun playing like this?"

Mao Tao looked at him with a bright smile and said, "It's good to know that you care."

Then without even bothering to wait for Lin Fan's response, she walked past him and headed towards the bar.

Qiao Yi Fei took a look at Lin Fan before following Mao Tao into the bar.

As Mao Tao headed towards the bar, she couldn't help revealing a blush.

When Lin Fan had suddenly appeared in front of her, her heart had skipped a beat before a warm feeling filled it.

After all, he was just too dazzling and handsome when he acted like this.

Even Qiao Yi Fei couldn't stop her heart from skipping a beat when Lin Fan stood out in front of her which was why her brows were knitted as she followed Mao Tao. It was clear that the one for her was Diabolis, so why did her heart skip a beat for him?

Not to mention that she knew that Mao Tao liked him…

Lin Fan was left behind with a bitter smile on his face.

Even an idiot could understand what was going on even if they used their foot to think. It was clear that this was all a cover up that the Hunters Organization had created to allow them to host this secret meeting.

However, Lin Fan couldn't help feeling amazed by this. The reach of the Hunters Organization really was quite deep if they even had small places like this prepared that they could use on such short notice.

But this meant that they were worthy of being known as one of the twelve great factions.

After a moment of being dazed, Lin Fan followed the two of them inside.

The inside of the bar was surprisingly packed, but not a single person turned to look in their direction even though there were two nation collapsing level beauties that had come in.

Mao Tao went over to the bar and took out the thing that the thug gave her to show to the bartender behind the bar.

When the bartender saw this token that she placed on the bar, he didn't react at all as he continued wiping the cup that had been in his hand. All the bartender did was give a cough which caught the attention of the barmaid who had been about to go out to serve a drink.

When the barmaid turned over and saw the token on the table, she gave a nod to Mao Tao before going out to serve the drink. Once she was done, she came back to lead Mao Tao into the back of the bar which led to a corridor that had several doors that were all ajar.

As Lin Fan was being led past them, he was able to peek into them and he knew exactly what they were used for.

These were rooms that had a couch in them and a slight pink tint to the light, almost as if it was setting a mood.

These rooms should be one of the main earners normally for bars of this repute…

After being led past several doors, they finally came to a door that was clearly bigger than the others.

When this door that was bigger was opened, it revealed a room that was visibly much more luxurious than the others. There was even a large bed that was in the center of the room which Lin Fan immediately knew the function of with a single look.

After leading them in, the barmaid gave them a bow and closed the door behind her as she said, "Please enjoy yourselves."

Lin Fan was surprised by this, but he didn't show it on his face since he knew that this was all part of the cover that the Hunters Organization had set for this place.

As expected, once they were here, Mao Tao moved right past the bed and headed to a bookshelf that had strangely been put in this kind of room. She moved to the side of the bookshelf and inserted the token that she received into a groove that was on the side of the bookshelf.

Once the token was inserted, there was a click sound as the bookshelf started to move, turning in a way that revealed a passage with stairs leading down.

Lin Fan reached his head out to look down, but all he saw was a winding staircase, so he couldn't see that far down it.

Since he couldn't see, naturally his first reaction was to release his spiritual sense to check it out. However, his spiritual sense didn't get far before being stopped by something that was at the bottom.

It was the spiritual sense of another expert and based on how strong it was, it was clearly someone much stronger than him.

Lin Fan pulled back his spiritual sense and started following the two girls down the staircase.

As his spiritual sense told him, it didn't take them long to reach the bottom of the winding staircase where there was another door that was waiting for them. This door was even bigger than the door that had led into the room that they had been in, making it clear that there was a big room behind this door.

Mao Tao easily pushed open the door and revealed the large meeting room that was inside.

This was a room with no decorations, only having a single giant table in the center of the room, but the table itself was more than enough to decorate the room with how luxurious it was.

Lin Fan could feel the life energy coming from the table and he knew that this wasn't a table that was made from simple material. It was definitely a table that was made from a very rare material.

If it was left in a space long enough, it would be enough to fill a space with life energy that would be very beneficial to one's training.

Even when the door opened, Lin Fan could feel the stronger concentration of life energy that came from this room.

Around the table were three different parties that had evenly divided the table into three parts.

There was the Hunters Organization party which had both old man Qiao and president Mao, there was the Myriad Sword Hall party which had Wang Jian and a white haired old man that Lin Fan didn't recognize, and finally there was the Ice Goddess Palace party which had Bing Yu and an older woman with blue hair that Lin Fan didn't know.

As he looked around the table, Lin Fan revealed an awkward look since he didn't know where to sit.

Seeing this, old man Qiao waved his hand at Lin Fan as if telling him to come over.

Lin Fan quickly noticed this and was happy that he was given a way out, so he walked over to the Hunters Organization group with Mao Tao and Qiao Yi Fei.

However, when Lin Fan passed by the Myriad Sword Hall group, the white haired old man suddenly opened his eyes to reveal a sharp gaze that he turned to look at Lin Fan with.
