A deafening silence fell as they looked at Wu Yuan, stunned. They can't believe that not only would they hear this name again, but also that there is actually a possibility of the person being alive?! And this is the reason why Chen Han, Fan Wen, and his disciples together with Dong Zheng and Dong Cheng left earlier?! To check if it was really Wu Ran that they saw?! They all thought as they looked at Xie Lan and Fei Yin who were similarly shocked as them.
To check on the enemy while not telling the others is indeed something that Fan Wen and the Xinfaxian Sect people would do. They will do it to not let the others be distracted by the impending battle against Ho Chu. If not for Xie Lan asking where his wife and kids… ehem, Fan Wen, and their disciples were, then none of them would have noticed that Fan Wen and his disciples were actually missing!
