School Beauty's Peerless Soldier

Chapter 1311: Counterattack



After Zhou Minghui left, the smile on Xu Fan's face gradually faded, turning cold.

Of course, it wasn't because of the Zhou Family, but due to the aggressive demeanor of the Li, Long, and Feng families.

From West City to the base, it had only been one night, and the Li, Long, and Feng families had already reacted, aiming to strip Xu Fan of his instructor identity by pressuring the Zhou Family, thus intending to kill Xu Fan.

Xu Fan was not a tyrannical person, he allowed himself to act against others but did not allow others to act against him. If the Li, Long, and Feng families confronted Xu Fan openly, he would be very willing to accept. However, the three families chose such petty tactics to force Xu Fan.

If Xu Fan didn't have an unclear relationship with Mu Lao, he might indeed find himself helpless in this situation.

Xu Fan adjusted his clothes and expression, appearing as though he was unaffected, as he walked towards the Divine Arms Pavilion at the base.

Mu Lao's identity here seemed extraordinarily special. Xu Fan only needed to deliver his message to any one of Mu Lao's four associates, and he believed all four would help solve this trouble.

Mu Lao had waited for decades, finally encountering Xu Fan, and now Xu Fan hadn't yet broken through to the Vajra Realm. Would Mu Lao allow anyone to lay a hand on Xu Fan?

However, defense was never Xu Fan's style.

Li Hua wasn't killed by Xu Fan, yet the three families, in a laughable show of face, chose collectively to send an assassin after Xu Fan. Naturally, after ensuring his own safety, Xu Fan would retaliate.

How to retaliate? Xu Fan had long contemplated countless plans.

But before counterattacking, Xu Fan still needed to visit the Divine Arms Pavilion to pass some information to Mu Lao and perhaps seize a few suitable divine weapons.

Last night on the helicopter, Old Xie promised Xu Fan he would gift him divine weapons. Ever since encountering the Spiritual Snake, Xu Fan had been intrigued by divine weaponry. Such an opportunity was something Xu Fan wouldn't miss.

...

The Divine Arms Pavilion, alongside the Elixir Pharmacy, Book Depository, and Mission Hall, held equal standing within the base. However, as Xu Fan stepped into the Divine Arms Pavilion, he couldn't help but be mildly astonished.

Unlike the splendid and intricate Elixir Pharmacy and Book Depository, the Divine Arms Pavilion lacked towering structures or opulent decorations. It seemed more like a slightly larger blacksmith shop, bearing a faint air of poverty.

Yet, the gleaming divine weapons displayed around conveyed to visitors that this was no ordinary smithy, and no one dared act presumptuously here.

The Divine Arms Pavilion was filled with divine weapons but appeared somewhat empty due to the absence of people.

In the corner, on a chair presumably meant for guest waiting, sat a woman dressed in blue, her head lowered as if resting.

Xu Fan's footsteps made the blue-clad woman lift her head to look at him, and even someone accustomed to beauty like Xu Fan couldn't help but find her a bit stunning.

The neckline of her sky-blue dress revealed a slender, graceful neck akin to a swan's, elegant and proud. Her exquisite features were flawless, creating a dazzling ensemble that seemed beyond the mortal world, more like nature's masterpiece.

Though Xu Fan was captivated, he was well-versed with various beauties and remarkably composed, so his reaction wasn't excessively astonished. After a brief surprise, his slightly stirred gaze returned to calmness.

At this moment, the woman in blue looked at Xu Fan with eyes like autumn water, her brows slightly furrowed, and her pursed lips carried an innate pride and coldness. Yet, it didn't evoke any resentment—the cold, proud aura harmonizing seamlessly with her presence.

"Are you here for divine weapons too?"

The blue-clad woman's voice was icy, resembling a winter spring, yet crisp and clear.

Whether intentionally or not, the woman often spoke with a subtle hint of grace, resembling a queen in disguise addressing a commoner, attempting to appear calm and harmonious, yet unable to conceal her inherent pride.

Xu Fan didn't favor this demeanor, but he refrained from showing displeasure just because her voice was cold. Instead, he simply nodded faintly without replying.

Unexpectedly, Xu Fan's stance seemed to pique the woman in blue's interest, as she slightly furrowed her brow, pondering something.

"Although I've just arrived at the base, I'm quite familiar with the situation here. Those eligible to retrieve divine weapons from the Divine Arms Pavilion are few throughout the base."

"Coincidentally, I've encountered those few, among whom you do not appear."

With these words, a gleam passed through her captivating phoenix eyes, and with a resolute tone, she asked Xu Fan, "If I'm not mistaken, you should be the Xu Fan who's been causing quite a stir in the base recently, Coach Xu?"

Even Xu Fan, upon hearing this, was slightly surprised. The blue-clad woman had discerned Xu Fan's identity at a glance, based solely on seemingly insignificant cues. Her keen perspective was genuinely impressive.

Instead of immediately nodding, Xu Fan asked her, "The Divine Arms Pavilion appears less grand than the Book Depository or the Elixir Pharmacy. Why, among the entire base, do so few come to purchase divine weapons?"

This was the key question to the blue-clad woman's identification of Xu Fan's identity and an element of Xu Fan's curiosity. Xu Fan knew well that there were numerous family descendants within the base brimming with points.

Momentarily stunned, the blue-clad woman was not taken aback by the difficulty of Xu Fan's question but by its simplicity.

Having had little exposure to such matters previously, Xu Fan was somewhat unsure about some fundamental aspects.

At this moment, the blue-clad woman began explaining to Xu Fan, "The reason is straightforward. Each divine weapon above the Third Rank costs at least ten thousand points! Within the base, besides a handful of individuals from deeply established backgrounds, very few can muster such points."

"Ten thousand points? So expensive?" Xu Fan's face was full of shock.

Even Fourth Grade or Fifth Grade elixirs, capable of saving lives, weren't as expensive as this.

Seeing Xu Fan's expression, the blue-clad woman hesitated slightly, "You're not going to tell me you came to the wrong place, are you?"
