Ning Fan's original intention was to not let Xu Xiaoqing follow him.
Although there wasn't anything wrong with Xu Xiaoqing following him, Ning Fan knew that this matter was out of the ordinary.
Since the Tang Clan had issued a challenge poster, their purpose had already become very clear.
If it were merely a contest between Elder Tang and Ning Fan, there would have been no need to do so; all Elder Tang wanted was to retrieve the Tang Clan's plaques.
But now that Elder Tang had issued a challenge poster, it indicated that his goal still lay in the reputation of the Tang Clan.
The prestige that the Tang Clan had painstakingly built up over hundreds of years had already experienced a severe shake-up when Ning Fan took the Tang Clan's plaque.
Although Ning Fan did not publicize it at the time, and there were no outsiders present at the entrance of the Tang Clan.
However, when Ning Fan carried the plaque away, that scene was witnessed by many people.
