Chapter 398: Chapter 374 Chief Lu Arrives

Many buildings were suspended in mid-air over the blue river.

Supported by only a few stone pillars.

The Giant Whale Exotic Beast spouted a stream of air, gently placing the Dustcrosser Boat on a spacious platform.

It then jumped into the river below.

A strange sight occurred.

This giant beast plunged into the blue river without causing a single splash.

Only the ripples proved that the leap of the whale into the river was not an illusion.

Dong Fang led the crowd to leave the Dustcrosser Boat. They moved through the corridor from the platform towards the building cluster not far off.

Walking above the river, the crowd felt extremely nervous.

They were afraid that the stone pillars below might collapse and they might fall into the river.

This blue river seemed to be of the same origin as the Spirit Transforming Stone.

Countless waters converged, pushing the suppression of spiritual energy to its limits here, and Li Fan’s power inside was completely silenced.

Without the support of his cultivation base, the near-death Li Fan felt increasingly weak due to his age.

Even walking a few steps became somewhat breathless.

It seemed that in the next second, he would lose his grip and fall to the ground.

While shocked, Li Fan tried to summon Even True from within, and found that he could still use it normally.

This relieved him.

“Only people like you can stay in this ghost place.”

“Even if it isn’t my first time here, I still can’t get used to it.”

After a long walk, they finally arrived at a hall.

Huang Fusong wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed.

“We have no other choice. The number of Soul Beads is limited. The construction of the Great Array is urgent and can’t be delayed.”

“All of them are given to my men to speed up the process. There aren’t any left.”

“Otherwise, I could give one to Brother Huang Fu for emergency use.” Dong Fang said with a smile.

Huang Fusong waved his hand: “The mission is the priority. The mission is the priority.”

“We need to get our work done promptly and leave this ghost place.”

Dong Fang nodded, about to say something, but his face changed slightly.

A blue light flew in from outside, stopping right in front of him.

Li Fan looked and saw it was a small, exquisite, blue bird.

Flapping its wings constantly and chirping, it seemed to be saying something.

Dong Fang seemed to understand this “bird language”.

As the bluebird tweeted, he suddenly stood up, his face growing more serious.

“I understand, you can go now.” Dong Fang said.

The blue bird turned into blue light and disappeared instantly.

“What’s wrong?” Seeing Dong Fang looking like he’s about to face a great enemy, Huang Fusong couldn’t help his curiosity and asked.

Dong Fang folded his hands: “Brother Huang Fu, I’m afraid I can’t join you.”

“I received a sudden notification.”

“The chief is coming for an inspection soon, I need to go check everything again to prevent any problems.”

Huang Fusong was also taken aback when he heard this.

He quickly stood up and asked: “The chief? Which chief?”

Dong Fang gave a wry smile: “Who else could make me so nervous? Of course, it is the highest-ranking chief.”

Huang Fusong was somewhat shocked: “Lu…”

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Dong Fang.

“Shh, knowing this much should be enough for you, Brother Huang Fu. Remember, keep this to yourself.”

Huang Fusong also became nervous after learning that his superior’s superior was coming for an inspection.

“Understood, understood.”

“Dong Fang, go ahead with your official duties.” fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

“This one from the rumors, isn’t so easy to deal with…”

Huang Fusong nodded in response, about to say something, but suddenly froze.

The shock on his face could no longer be hidden. He quickly turned to look at Li Fan, who was sitting quietly by his side.

The now-aging Li Fan was resting with his eyes closed.

He seemed disinterested in the conversation between the two.

“Is this the reason he came here?”

“How is that possible?!”

“Coincidence, or…”

Huang Fusong is no ordinary man, after all.

Moments later, he suppressed the surprise on his face.

Dong Fang seemed to have sensed something and glanced in the direction of Li Fan.

But he didn’t ask further, just bid farewell and left.

After Dong Fang left, Huang Fusong could no longer hold back, and called Li Fan into a vacant room.

Lowering his voice, he stared unblinkingly at Li Fan: “Boy, did you already know that Chief Lu was coming?”

Li Fan just gave a faint smile, neither denying nor confirming.

Seeing this, Huang Fusong got his answer.

He drew in a sharp breath at that moment.

As a member of the Tianyu State Array Hall, Huang Fusong was keenly aware of just how high Chief Lu’s status was.

Not to mention her Unity-Path cultivation.

Merely with the authority as the Chief Array Master of the Immortal Alliance Formation Hall, and her duty of overseeing all array affairs, she could crush Huang Fusong with the same ease as stepping on an ant.

All the array masters of the Immortal Alliance Formation Hall, strictly speaking, were her subordinates.

And Chief Lu was known for her ruthless methods.

The group of people who had once competed with her for the chief’s position were all suppressed for various reasons shortly after she took office.

They disappeared from the world.

This blatant retaliation didn’t cause a backlash.

On the contrary, it received strong support from the highest decision-making body of the Immortal Alliance.

Her series of swift and decisive reforms, along with several severe punishments.

Had silenced all the array masters in the Hall.

Even Huang Fusong had heard Ji Hongdao mention that the plan to promote the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array was first proposed by Chief Lu.

Many rumors about her from the past suddenly surged in his mind.

Cold sweat trickled down Huang Fusong’s forehead.

This bigwig.

This seemingly unremarkable and rootless boy in front of him could have anticipated her whereabouts days in advance?

What does that mean?

Even if Chief Lu is not the one backing him.

He must be very close to Chief Lu.

At this thought, Huang Fusong couldn’t help but feel dry-mouthed.

“No wonder I always felt this kid has an extraordinary demeanor, he is not ordinary.”

“He really has a powerful backer!”

As he recounted Li Fan’s past experiences, Huang Fusong suddenly seemed to understand.

“No wonder he fought so hard for the ranking, even on the verge of death he seemed utterly nonchalant.”

“He was fearless because of his solid backing.”

“No wonder the news of his selfless contributions spread so quickly, it’s almost known throughout the whole Immortal Alliance.”

“It was premeditated all along.”

“All his seemingly selfless acts, were just a chance to make himself look good.”

Several thoughts flashed through his mind, and he cursed silently.

Regardless of his internal complaints, Huang Fusong had a brilliant smile on his face.

“Li…”

“Yes, yes, Li Fan, you really keep a low profile!”

“With such connections, there’s no need to hide it. You’re treating me like an outsider!”

Li Fan’s expression remained the same: “Elder Huang Fusong, I’m not sure what you’ve figured out.”

“But I think you might be misunderstanding something.”

“I don’t have any strong backing.”

He said seriously.

“Still playing dumb? Is it because you’re afraid it might look bad?”

That’s what he thought. However, Huang Fusong immediately nodded earnestly, “I understand, I understand!”
