Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: Collusion

Flying boats, the most expensive type of transportation in the Continent of the Nine States, utilizing spirit stones to catalyze them, soaring through the sky, capable of traveling for tens of thousands of miles in a day.

Throughout the entire Grand Xuan Country, probably apart from the Heavenly Martial Academy, only the royal family and a few great clans were able to possess flying boats.

Legend has it that a large flying boat can hold 10,000 people at the same time, and it even has attack and defense formations engraved on it, so it can be called a mobile aerial fortress.

At this moment, Chen Fan's flying boat in front of him, of course, is not that big, but it's not small either, and it should not be a problem to accommodate dozens or hundreds of people.

Smoothly landed on the high platform, from the flying boat down three figures, the foremost is a white bearded old man, looking extremely powerful, a pair of tiger eyes gleaming, looking at the power.

Behind him, there were two young men wearing green clothes and carrying long swords.

One of them was a very handsome man with a lofty appearance, with a plump god like jade, it was Li Haoran, who was only seventeen years old and had already reached the eighth heaven of the Martial Artist, that is, Li Tingtian's son.

The white-bearded old man's gaze swept across the room, and at this time, Li Haoran came next to the other party, pointed in Li Dingtian's direction, and whispered a few words.

The old man nodded at Li Dingtian with a smile, then spoke aloud, "Old man, Tao Ran!"

The voice was not loud, but it accurately reached the ears of everyone present, looking at his aura, he was afraid that he was at least a character of the Martial Master realm, and most likely reached the Ninth Heaven of the Martial Master, possessing ninety thousand pounds of enormous strength in his body!

That is a hand and a throw, can open the mountain crack stone, enough to stir up the sea water turbulence of the characters.

Martial cultivation was known as one step to heaven.

Each small realm after the Martial Master would increase by 10,000 pounds of tremendous strength, which was why Lao Luo could so easily receive a move from Li Dingtian before.

It was because the two were simply not on the same level.

As for the Grand Xuan Country's most profound Martial Spirit realm, legend had it that each minor realm increased by 100,000 pounds of tremendous force!

What kind of concept is that?

Moving mountains to fill the sea, and calming the sea!

At this moment, after Chen Fan noticed Tao Ran's frown with Li Dingtian, his pupils shrunk slightly and he looked at Li Haoran again, unconsciously clenching his fists.

He knew that this was far from over!

After glancing at Li Dingtian, the other party's mouth already had a winning smile hanging at the corner, slowly rushing towards Tao Ran on the high platform and cupping his fists, he said, "Qingyang Li Family, welcome to Master Tao's presence!"

As soon as these words came out, the other families then remembered that they had been shocked into forgetting to salute, and hurriedly bowed.

However, this speed and reaction was no match for Li Dingtian.

Tao Ran waved his hand, although he seemed to be unconcerned about the rudeness of the bystanders, he nevertheless gave Li Dingtian an appreciative glance, it was obvious that no matter what kind of realm a person had reached, he had no resistance to flattering and kneeling.

"Then, the little dolls of the right age can come to the old man to measure their strength."

Tao Ran finished his sentence, and before the crowd could react, Li Dingtian picked up the conversation.

"Master Tao does not know, I have always had one thing I wanted to clarify, please be accommodating and allow me to finish before holding the selection."

"Oh?" A flash of doubt surfaced on Tao Ran's face as he said, "There's no harm in speaking up, Master Li."

Li Dingtian secretly gave Li Haoran a look, and only after receiving a response from the other party did he say, "This is about that mysterious person leaving behind a jade pendant..."

"What did you say, where is that jade pendant and who did the mysterious person give it to!"

Tao Ran didn't even let Li Ding finish, and immediately interrupted with a face of urgency, and the color of ecstasy appeared in his eyes, obviously that jade pendant was something extremely important.

But this also revealed another thing in an invisible way.

That was that Tao Ran, or rather the Tianwu Academy, although they all knew that they also attached great importance to the matter of the jade pendant, they did not know who exactly that jade pendant was in the hands of!

This was tantamount to giving Li Dingtian endless room for maneuver, after now having hooked up with Tao Ran, black and white, was about to be turned upside down in his hands, and everything that originally belonged to Chen Fan, would be attributed to Li Haoran!

This is a blatant robbery, in front of Chen Fan's face, will be supposed to belong to his things, forcibly placed in the head of the next person.

Chen Fan has been angry body trembling, until this moment, Li Dingtian's sinister intentions, malicious trickery also finally came to light.

He wanted to knock Chen Fan to the dust in one fell swoop!

At this moment, no one in the entire Qingyang City dared to refute Li Dingtian, even if they knew that what he said was overstated, but after all, the Li family was powerful, Li Haoran was specially recruited into the academy without even taking part in the auditing process, so how could they rebel against such a family?

Right in the middle of Chen Fan's rage, he suddenly felt his small pair of cold hands grabbing his arm, looking back, it was Mu Wanrong.

"If you can't help it this time, it is what Li Dingtian wants to see the most!"

Looking at Mu Wanrong's eyes, Chen Fan's mood strangely calmed down, the reason why he was angry was only because Li Dingtian had taken away all the things that originally belonged to him.

But ask, even without those things, who could stop him?

Collecting his mind, Chen Fa's eyes were wide open, he wanted to keep everyone's expressions today in his mind, and one day, one by one, he would trample them under his feet!

With actions, he would tell the world that those who offend me, Chen Fan, will be killed without pardon!

...

"That's how things are, I didn't expect him to crush that jade pendant."

Li Dingtian ended his words by once again pointing the finger at Chen Fan, claiming that he stole the jade pendant, and just now, fearing that someone would pursue the matter, he crushed it with his own hands.

Li Haoran also received his father's eye signals at this time, clasping his fists and bowing to Tao Ran, he said, "Master Tao, forgive me, Haoran has always wanted to prove himself with his strength, so the jade pendant given to me by that mysterious person has always been kept at home."

"It's just that I didn't expect it to be stolen by a small person, and *** the things left behind by a high person, it's really a crime that deserves death!"

Tao Ran waved his hand, looking at Li Haoran's eyes had taken on an infinite closeness, and even if one looked closely, there was even so much as a hint of a pleasing color.

"Hao Ran ah, you are doing the right thing, with your heavenly talent, even without that jade pendant, you will definitely be valued when you arrive at the academy."

"Now that I know that you are the true owner of that jade pendant, I will guarantee that before you are twenty years old, you will become a core student of my academy, with a status equal to that of a royal prince, and at that time, I may still have to rely on you to take care of Hao Ran ah!"

"My gosh, Tianwu Academy has never produced anyone who became a core student before the age of twenty, could it be that Li Haoran is going to break history?"

"The Li family is going to rise, it seems that the course of action will have to change in the future."

As Tao Ran's words fell, countless people started discussing, while Li Haoran seemed to not care at all and remained respectful to Tao Ran.

This made Tao Ran very flattered and heavily patted Li Haoran's shoulder, the more he looked at him, the more he liked him.

Only after looking at Li Haoran, Tao Ran again turned his eyes to Chen Fan, his expression already carrying a hint of disgust.
