As Zheng Huang prepared to confront the demon beasts and take the spiritual qi vein, Feng Fan arrived at the pond, his eyes narrowing as he took in the sight of cultivators sitting motionless within it.
"So many people got here before me. But something feels... off."
Before he could analyze the situation further, two familiar voices called out from behind him.
"Fanfan!"
"Feng Fan!"
Turning around, he saw Huang Xue and Xue Qiang approaching him. A smile broke across his face.
"Hey! I'm glad to see you two are safe."
"Feng Fan, I'm so glad you're safe. After what that old dog did, I was worried you might have been killed…" Xue Qiang said, her voice tinged with relief.
Huang Xue nodded silently in agreement, her expression softening.
"Come on, it's not that easy to kill me," Feng Fan said with a smirk. "If anything, it's my enemies who should be worried!"
Xue Qiang and Huang Xue chuckled at his confidence.
