Chapter 828: A Farce
Back on the land of Divine Sword Peak, Zhu Bufan felt as if ages had passed, though he was not familiar with this place, he still felt the joy of returning home.
"Brother Zhu Bufan, you've returned?" At this moment, Wang Hui's voice came over, turning his head quickly, indeed, Wang Hui with a smile on his face, was looking at him.
"Master Wang Hui, you are also unharmed? That's great!" Seeing Wang Hui, Zhu Bufan let go of his remaining worries, he was afraid that Wang Hui had gone missing; if so, being a member from the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Hui would have trouble here, but it seems Huo Ling found Wang Hui and convinced Elder Huo, so Wang Hui was here.
"Yes, luckily I was not far from Miss Huo Ling at the time, otherwise, it would have been a lot of trouble here. By the way!" After getting close to Zhu Bufan, Wang Hui lowered his voice and said, "By the way, Huo Ling's grandfather seems very dissatisfied that you caused his granddaughter to disappear, he was even saying everywhere that he wants to kill you…You have to be careful yourself."
After hearing Wang Hui's words, Zhu Bufan immediately broke out in a cold sweat; he would normally filter what those four big talkers said, but if even Wang Hui said it like this, then the matter must be really serious, as Zhu Bufan knew that Wang Hui wouldn't speak like this unless it was indeed serious.
"Should I slip away first?" Thinking of this, Zhu Bufan suddenly thought of escaping. Elder Huo, although Zhu Bufan had not spent a whole day with him, he knew his temper very clearly; the title of old rascal was not misrepresented on him.
"You came back and still thinking of leaving? Have you abducted my beloved granddaughter and now you don't have the courage to face me?" A thunderous voice flew close from afar, Zhu Bufan didn't know how Elder Huo heard his soft words, and in no time, Elder Huo's blood-red figure appeared in front of Zhu Bufan, his eyes full of killing intent, staring at Zhu Bufan, making him feel like a frog being stared at by a snake, of course, this frog was Zhu Bufan himself.
"Long time no see, teacher," Zhu Bufan said to Elder Huo with a forced smile, hearing Elder Huo's words, Zhu Bufan had a million grievances in his heart, but he dared not voice them, as Elder Huo directly accused him of abducting Huo Ling, naturally, he wouldn't allow Zhu Bufan to explain.
"Hmm? Didn't Ling girl say you've reached the Bone Forging Realm? Why do you still look like you're about at the Body Tempering Sixth Layer Heaven? Damn! I should have thought earlier, how could a youngster leap to the Bone Forging Realm in just over two years? It must be that girl tricking me! Disobedient disciple! Say! Are you having an affair with Ling girl? How outrageous! To think of laying hands on Ling girl!" As he spoke, Elder Huo was already howling, not giving Zhu Bufan a chance to speak, becoming more excited as he talked, eventually like a raging commander.
"Teacher, I am innocent, I haven't done anything with Huo Ling," Zhu Bufan looked at Elder Huo with a wry smile, finally finding a moment to hurriedly explain.
"Huo Ling? You call Ling girl by her name? Directly calling her name? That's outrageous too!! You indeed have improper thoughts towards my Ling girl! Unforgivable! Absolutely unforgivable!!" Hearing Zhu Bufan call Huo Ling by her name, Elder Huo seemed even more deranged, and Zhu Bufan was even more bewildered and sweating, he really didn't understand, aren't names meant to be called? If one can't even call names, then why have them?
"Old man!! Have you gone mad enough?" Just at that moment, a familiar voice came, hearing this voice, Zhu Bufan instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and at this moment, Zhu Bufan also noticed that aside from himself, only Elder Huo and Wang Hui were around, clearly, other people of the Dark Sect seeing Elder Huo's fury, all ran away lickety-split!
A figure rushed close, followed by a silver shadow and a water-blue shadow, swish swish swish, three figures quickly landed, it was Zhu Bufan's another master, the Artifact Refiner Wu Yingzhong, and behind Wu Yingzhong stood Huo Ling and a Silver Charm, this Silver Charm was the same one severely injured in the Medicine King Garden previously entrusted to Zhu Bufan by Emperor Yan, named Xiao Yin!
"Wu old man, what are you doing here? This is a matter between this bastard disciple and myself, it's not your place to intervene!" Seeing Huo Ling brought Wu Yingzhong over, Elder Huo became quite unhappy, "You go back to your Medicine King Garden and play with your jade stones!"
"Old rascal, you!! You're seeking death!! Also, I'm also his master, his teacher!!!" Elder Huo's words made Wu Yingzhong's veins bulge, Zhu Bufan, although not long with Wu Yingzhong, knew that Wu Yingzhong, like Wang Hui, preferred calm and indifference; only Elder Huo could make him this angry.
"Hmm? Is that so? I forgot! Never mind! Even if not counting the master-disciple thing, this rebellious disciple seduced my Ling girl and has now dared to return, I must cripple him!!" Speaking thus, Elder Huo's fierce gaze immediately turned towards Zhu Bufan.
"Grandfather!! What are you talking about? Who did he ruin! Stop talking nonsense!!!" Hearing Elder Huo's words, Huo Ling immediately got furious, her usual calmness flew beyond the high skies.
"Ling girl, no need to deny it anymore, Grandpa doesn't blame you for having an affair with him, but Grandpa doesn't approve of him! So, just by getting rid of him, you won't continue the affair with him!" Huo Elder's words, so aggressive that everyone present turned pale, especially Huo Ling and Zhu Bufan, who were already reeling. It's baffling how Huo Elder arrived at such a frivolous conclusion that the two had an affair.
"Ling girl, Grandpa knows you are embarrassed, but Grandpa is not blind! Look, when you just got back, the way you frantically asked Grandpa to fetch him, and in the end, you actually lied to Grandpa, saying this unfilial person reached the Bone Forging Realm! You know, my Ling girl never lies, it must be this unfilial man leading her astray, how despicable!! Having an affair is one thing, but corrupting Ling girl, unforgivable!!!"
When everyone was stunned by Huo Elder's aggressive reasoning and the far-fetched and unbelievable reasons, Huo Elder suddenly struck out at Zhu Bufan, with a simple and unremarkable palm strike that Zhu Bufan felt as the pressure of Mount Tai bearing down on him.
"Roar!! Old ghost, how dare you!!"
"Old man!! Insolence!!"
At this moment, two childish voices called out at the same time. Emperor Yan and Bai Ling sensed Zhu Bufan's peril and both transformed into human figures, appearing beside Zhu Bufan. One black and one white, they both unleashed Wutian Black Flames and Tourmaline Mysterious Water against Huo Elder's palm, while Zhu Bufan instantly unleashed all his power, striking back at Huo Elder's palm with his cosmic might.
Boom!!
A loud boom. Zhu Bufan was immediately pressed down to the ground, and both the little fox and Emperor Yan were forced to step back repeatedly. "Grandpa! What are you doing??" Seeing Huo Elder truly make a move, Huo Ling immediately stood in front of Zhu Bufan, angrily looking at Huo Elder.
"Still saying there's no affair, Grandpa was just testing him, and you got this nervous, who would believe there's nothing going on," Huo Elder remarked with a sneer, and then said to Huo Ling, "Strange, where did these two little girls come from, they are so fierce? Damn boy!! You're even not sparing children??"
"Go die!!" Before Huo Elder could finish speaking, Huo Ling directly smashed a Hanhai Spirit Pearl on Huo Elder's face, and at this moment, Zhu Bufan had already stood up. Aware of Huo Elder's shamelessness, Zhu Bufan was surprised that Huo Elder would indeed make a move on him, although the so-called move was just casually pressing his hand towards him.
"Grandpa! Stop talking nonsense, there is nothing between him and me! And I didn't deceive you! He has indeed reached the Bone Forging Realm!!" With an angry expression, Huo Ling stared fiercely at Huo Elder, "As for those two little girls, the black one is Emperor Yan's Sword Spirit, and the white one is the Two-tailed Demon Fox transformed into a human, they are not as filthy as you think!"
"Demon Fox? Sword Spirit?" In the urgency of the moment, Huo Ling did not hide the identities of Emperor Yan and Bai Ling, and as the two little girls were also present, hiding them was impossible. As for Wu Yingzhong, he was even more shocked because he heard Huo Ling saying that Zhu Bufan had reached the Bone Forging Realm, which was more shocking to Wu Yingzhong than a sudden blow to the head!
"Impossible! The fluctuations of his Primordial Qi obviously correspond to the Body Refining Sixth Layer Heaven, how?" Beside them, Wu Yingzhong, not waiting for Huo Elder to speak, immediately interjected, and by this time Emperor Yan and Bai Ling had already stood up, both of them looking resentfully at Huo Elder, whose face blushed slightly under their innocent gazes.
"Actually, this is what happened." After taking off his Golden Silk Robe, Zhu Bufan's true cultivation suddenly became evident, feeling the flow of Primordial Qi around Zhu Bufan, Huo Elder and Wu Yingzhong were finally forced to believe that Zhu Bufan had indeed reached the Bone Forging Realm, and Wu Yingzhong, looking at the golden liquid metal ball in Zhu Bufan's hand, started trembling violently, "Is this the Golden Silk Robe?"
"Yes, teacher, this Golden Silk Robe was crafted by an Artifact Refiner Master in that place where we disappeared, who helped me refine it from a damaged Water Mysterious Silver Robe." Because he was worried about Wu Yingzhong being upset, Zhu Bufan mentioned the lifespan of the ry>] Water Mysterious Silver Robe ended much earlier.
"Very exquisite craftsmanship, very precise control of the timing! And this shaping ability and refining ability, only... only a Sixth Rank pinnacle Artifact Refiner could achieve!" Seeing the Golden Silk Robe in Zhu Bufan's hand, Wu Yingzhong's speech became stammered, while Huo Elder directly turned his head to look at the sky, as if he hadn't been insisting earlier that Huo Ling was lying, a typical case of bury-his-head-in-the-sand!
"Hey! Old dead man!!" Just at this moment, Emperor Yan and Bai Ling cried out in unison, drawing the attention of everyone present. Seeing the two little girls staring dead at Huo Elder, and when Huo Elder turned his head, the two little girls said, "Old man! How dare you lay a hand on us two? Do you know who we are?"
