Just as Xu Fan's heart was burning with anxiety, Xu Tong's figure appeared once more. As soon as she arrived, she asked, "Third brother, the situation is very urgent. The family head wants me to bring you away. Do you have anything important to take with you?"

Xu Fan shook his head and secretly warned, "No!"

In fact, apart from the black bag that Xu Jincheng had given him, there was nothing else that was important to him.

Xu Tong looked at Xu Fan and said, "You should know where the secret passageway is, right?"

He could only escape through the secret passage, but he couldn't easily get rid of these guards and Xu Tong. Moreover, he didn't know the exact location of the secret passage, so he might as well tell these people to think of a way to escape after escaping.

Thinking about this, Xu Fan nodded and said, "Yes, I know. You guys take me to the inner castle's fake mountain area."

"Alright!"

A hint of joy flashed across Xu Tong's eyes as she thought to herself, "So it really is that place. She calmly said to the guards," Let's go. We're going to the fake mountain. "

After the time it takes an incense stick to burn, the group of people hurriedly rushed to the fake mountain in the inner castle with Xu Fan between them.

When he arrived at the fake mountain, Xu Fan was immediately dumbfounded.

Rather than calling this place a fake mountain, it would be more accurate to call it a small hill.

The fake mountain was terrifyingly large. It wasn't the fake mountain that Xu Fan had imagined would be made from stones.

"Where is this secret passageway?"

Xu Fan was suspicious. He looked around the fake mountain, but didn't find anything special.

"Third brother, this is the fake mountain area. Hurry and open the secret passage."

Xu Tong glanced at Xu Fan and urged.

"Oh …"

Xu Fan woodenly nodded his head and took a few steps forward.

Suddenly, just as Xu Fan was three feet away from the fake mountain, a white light suddenly shot out from the mountain. The white light landed on a jade pendant that hung on Xu Fan's body.

After a short moment, the white light disappeared and the entire fake mountain began to slowly move to the left. A moment later, a ten feet wide entrance appeared on the ground.

Xu Fan's heart filled with joy as he secretly let out a sigh of relief. Xu Tong and the guards behind him all revealed a strange expression.

Just as Xu Fan was preparing to enter the secret passage, suddenly, a wave of eerie laughter came from above: "I didn't expect there to be such a secret passage in the Xu family castle. Hehe … Do you want to escape?" "It's not that easy?"

Xu Fan raised his head in horror and saw a gray-robed old man standing on a flying sword in the air. This old man had a high bun on his head and a black bag around his waist.

"You … "Who are you?"

Xu Fan was dumbstruck as he stared dumbfoundedly at the person in midair.

This... This person was actually standing in the air. Wasn't this what he had seen on television in his previous life? The heck! In his previous life, only the immortals and demons on TV could fly in such a manner. Now, they actually saw it with their own eyes. Could this be the immortals of this world? From the looks of it, cultivating to become an Immortal really wasn't something to brag about.

Xu Fan couldn't believe it. He rubbed his eyes, and only in the end was he able to confirm that all of this was real. His heart was filled with shock, but also some yearning and joy.

In reality, it wasn't just Xu Fan who was dumbstruck. All of the guards were dumbstruck as well!

To be able to fly in the air and stand in the air, this was completely beyond their imagination!

Only Xu Tong's face lit up. This was the expert the Zhao Family had sent? He didn't expect it to be so powerful. Hmph, there's no need for him to trick this trash out and kill him now.

"Heh heh, you must be that trash of the Xu Family, Xu Fan, right? "I didn't expect him to be a 3rd level Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator. Now that I've killed you, it's not considered a violation of the cultivation world's rules."

The old man with the surname Ma laughed eerily.

The so-called rules of the cultivation world stated that cultivators were not allowed to participate in mundane battles, and even more so, were not allowed to slaughter mortals as they wished. Moreover, the struggle between cultivators could not bring disaster upon the secular family.

After all, cultivators also came from mortals. Before they started cultivating, who didn't have mortal families and descendants? Therefore, the cultivation world had made a rule that no cultivator was allowed to deal with the descendants of mortal foes. Otherwise, they would become the cultivation world's public enemy.

Although the original Xu Fan's cultivation base was only at the 3rd level of Qi Cultivating Stage and his cultivation base was low, he could still be considered half a cultivator. Unfortunately, the current Xu Fan was completely confused, thinking to himself, "How do I look like a cultivator?"

At this critical moment, Xu Fan calmed down. He clasped his hands at the gray-clothed old man and said, "Senior Ma, you must be mistaken. I'm not some cultivator you're talking about."

"Brat, cut the crap. Do you think this old man can't tell whether you are a cultivator or not? "Obediently hand over your Xu Family's' Exhibition Golden Arts', or this old man will give you a quick death and give you a chance to reincarnate. Otherwise, don't blame this old man for being vicious and destroying your soul!"

The gray-robed old man stared at Xu Fan and sneered.

At this time, Xu Tong pulled Xu Fan, and her eyes flashed: "Third Brother, hurry up and hand over that < Golden Ode of Exhibition > to this Master Ma! Could it be that you want to die? "

"What should we do? Did he really hand over the black bag that Xu Jincheng gave him? But looking at the situation, even if you hand it over, the other person might not be willing to let you go. "

The sense of danger Xu Fan felt clearly told him that his opponent's killing intent hadn't been quelled, but he still couldn't think of a way to deal with it. He could only bite the bullet and drag out the time, "Senior Ma, I really don't know what exactly is this' Exhibition Golden Arts' you're talking about?" How about you give me a hint? "

"Humph!" "Brat, since you want to die quickly, this old man will grant your wish!"

With that, the grey-robed old man revealed his killing intent. He landed on the ground and waved his hand, sending out a flying sword.

On the ground, Xu Fan could only feel a powerful aura firmly locking him down. He couldn't even move a single step.

Just as the grey-robed old man was about to drive his flying sword, something happened.

Behind the rock garden, a white light suddenly flew out. The white light flashed and went straight to the grey-robed old man on the ground at lightning speed.

Ah!" "Treasure talisman!

Caught off guard, the grey-robed old man let out a terrified cry. In the next moment, the white light struck the grey-robed elder, sending him flying and landing on the ground fifty feet away.

At this moment, a huge hole appeared in his chest from the white light. Blood gushed out like fireworks.

The grey-clothed old man's entire body was covered in bloodstains. His face was ashen as he shouted with an aghast expression, "Which fellow cultivator ambushed this old man?"

The immortal who was standing high and mighty a moment ago, showing off his power to control the lives of everyone in his hands, suddenly turned into a bloody figure with a face full of fear in the blink of an eye.

Everything on the field changed too quickly, to the point that no one was able to recover their wits.

However, before he could finish his sentence, several fireballs flew towards him.

Ah!" Rank 2 Fireball Charm!

The grey-robed old man's expression immediately changed. He was frightened out of his wits as he hurriedly took out a yellow paper talisman from the pouch on his waist.

By the time he realized it, however, it was too late.

Boom!

Several fireballs landed on his body, instantly turning into a huge ball of flames.

The grey-robed old man only let out a miserable scream before he was turned into ashes by the flames. All that was left on the ground was a black bag and a flying sword.

"..."
