Chapter 284: The Secret Chamber of Ningyuan

Since Shen Yurou called out the name "I Am Invincible," Li Fan's attention shifted to Su Xiaomei.

He didn't expect to encounter "I Am Invincible," who had appeared in "Discussing Dao While Seated."

Naturally, Li Fan became interested.

Ever since he left a message about being able to defeat Zhang Qianmo soon, he had disappeared.

He didn't reappear before Zhang Qianmo was defeated by Zhong Shentong.

Li Fan originally thought he had perished.

But unexpectedly, he was alive and well.

"Why hasn't he challenged Zhang Qianmo since then?"

Li Fan checked the battle records of the "Discussing Dao While Seated," feeling somewhat puzzled.

He didn't seem like someone who would boast emptily.

Moreover.

Li Fan opened the battle records of "I Am Invincible" Shuo Feng's previous matches with Zhang Qianmo.

In his previous battles, Shuo Feng also used flying swords, but it was a set of eighty-one shiny golden swords.

It was a far cry from the wooden sword he was using now.

"Did he maintain his strength, or..."

"Did he... retrain?"

Having cultivated the Sea Fixing Sword Technique and mastered the Cong Yun Sea Twenty-Eight Swords, Li Fan had some understanding of swordsmanship.

Comparing Shuo Feng's battles with Zhang Qianmo and Su Xiaomei, Li Fan concluded that the power of the wooden sword now far surpassed that of the previous set of golden light swords.

"This wooden sword seems to be a Heavenly Treasure?"

"And its grade..."

Without seeing the wooden sword fully unleash its power, Li Fan couldn't rashly conclude.

However, it should be certain that it exceeded the category of ordinary treasures.

"Earthly Treasure?"

Li Fan's heart stirred slightly.

Fortunately, Su Xiaomei was also very curious about this wooden sword.

She launched a continuous barrage of questions at Shuo Feng.

"Uncle, your wooden sword just now was quite powerful, can you lend me it so I can take a look at it?"

"Is it the same as that armor you're wearing on your body, some kind of magic treasure?"

"You're still wearing armor in a fight, that's too unfair."

"I went all out, and the armor didn't even break! You're really bullying me!"

...

Shuo Feng also had a bit of a headache with this mischievous child.

Li Fan's target this time was clear.

He casually borrowed some silver from a wealthy merchant in the city and began to inquire about "Mr. Bai."

It is said that money makes the devil work.

What puzzled Li Fan was that despite spending a lot of money, he couldn't get any useful information about "Mr. Bai."

It seemed that there was no such person in the city.

Li Fan had to change his approach and started asking about any exceptionally handsome young men in the city.

Under the strange gazes of the residents, Li Fan collected information about three candidates who fit the criteria.

The first two were ruled out by Li Fan after meeting with them.

They were just ordinary people who happened to be good-looking.

Only the last one remained.

Li Fan arrived at the target's door.

A secluded and dilapidated courtyard.

According to the descriptions of the residents, the owner of the courtyard was a young man who appeared somewhat frail.

This young man was not a local.

He arrived in Ningyuan two years ago with a group of refugees fleeing disaster.

He bought this courtyard with the little silver he had left and settled down here.

The young man usually kept a low profile and rarely showed himself.

It was said that he wrote excellent calligraphy and made a living by teaching in the city's wealthy households.

Despite his frail appearance, everyone who had seen him praised his handsome appearance.

...

Information about the young man flashed through Li Fan's mind.

Not sensing any signs of life inside, Li Fan flashed into the courtyard.

A cursory sweep of his spiritual consciousness found nothing unusual.

However, Li Fan knew that Mr. Bai's house had a stone statue made of Absolute Immortal Stone, which could shield against spiritual consciousness perception.

Without giving up, Li Fan pushed open each door one by one and carefully inspected the rooms.

When he came to a room on the west side of the courtyard, which seemed to be a storage room, Li Fan's footsteps paused slightly.

Pushing aside the miscellaneous items on the ground, Li Fan lifted a thin stone slab on the ground.

Beneath it was a dark hole.

"A slab made of Absolute Immortal Stone..."

"This must be it!"

A faint smile appeared on Li Fan's lips as he flew into the underground chamber.

Upon landing, a faint smell of blood wafted over him.
