Chapter 318 (1/2)

A Happy Ending

The northern part of the island was shaking. Within the main palace, Ning Fan was inwardly shocked.

The person who made a stomp on the island really had great strength.

There is absolutely no one capable of exhibiting such strength unless that person is a Void Refinement Realm expert. However, in a way, it felt like the force of his stomp lost its momentum very quickly. Apparently, that person seems to be injured.

“Could it be that there is a Void Refinement Realm expert who is suffering from grievous injuries hiding in this island?” Ning Fan muttered to himself.

“Star Lord sure has a keen insight. To be frank, the person who made the stomp is very likely our father. He is the Great Elder of King Man’s valley. Besides, he was also the previous king of the star island, Man Xiong1. Just as his name suggests, our father’s temperament is not very good. Moreover, because of the matter regarding the Star Tempering Purple Zoysia, he seems to have some prejudice on Star Lord. The stomp he made was probably because he has heard of your arrival and is trying to challenge Star Lord. Please don’t be surprised, Star Lord.”

The two ugly wives of Man Shan hurriedly explained.

Ning Fan nodded his head.

So that injured Void Refinement Realm expert is Man Shan’s father-in-law.

If Man Shan was a complete stranger, he would never feel the slightest guilt and unease in annihilating the entire star island.

However, it seemed to him that he had owed Man Shan a huge favor. Wiping out the latter’s father-in-law and family would really be heartless and inhumane.

“Hmmph! So what if he feels surprised?! This old man is not going to be frightened by a young, immature kid!”

As the two ugly women finished speaking, an arrogant snort could be heard from the entrance.

Along with the cold voice which echoed in the air, a ray of starlight suddenly flashed past, forming the shadows of two individuals.

One of them was Man Shan while the other one was a skinny little old man. What was funny about it was that the old man who was obviously much shorter and smaller than Man Shan was carrying the latter while flying all the way to the main hall.

His body might look tiny and weak, but his aura was massive and vigorous. Upon his presence, all the demon beasts within the main hall felt the feeling of suffocation.

However, when his aura rushed towards Ning Fan, it abnormally parted for him, scattering right before him.

“Hmm? An Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivator was able to brush off my aura force?”

The old man simply tossed Man Shan to the ground. The latter’s two ugly wives instantly went to Man Shan and held him up with a worried look.

Well, this bear’s injuries had still yet to recover.

The old man stared deeply at Ning Fan while feeling astonished inwardly.

“Junior Lu Bei greets Senior Man Xiong!”

Ning Fan put down his teacup and stood up composedly to cup his fists towards Man Xiong.

His courtesy surprised Man Xiong once more.

At first, Man Xiong still did not believe the rumors that an Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivator has turned the Star Sea upside down. Currently, however, he could no longer deny the fact after meeting Ning Fain in person.

He could not be wrong! Ning Fan was certainly just an Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivator. However, his body had a quiet the demon prestige. Its aura force was so tremendous that he seemed to be a demon with ancestor blood standing on the pinnacle of the demon world while overlooking the common living creatures which looked like ants beneath him.

Of all demons, no one would be able to intimidate Ning Fan using aura force unless that person’s bloodline was stronger than his!

“Ancestor blood!”

All of a sudden, Man Xiong thought of that possibility and his eyes narrowed in seriousness.

A cultivator with ancestor blood is not someone to be trifled with…

If Ning Fan who possessed ancestor blood comes to ask for the Star Tempering Purple Zoysia, Man Xiong really needs to give him some face.

What Man Xiong did not expect the most was Ning Fan’s humble and respectful demeanor.

Are the rumors saying that this man is a haughty merciless killer who cut people down like cutting hemp stalks true?

Why would he be so polite to me who is just a little old man?

Is he afraid of my cultivation level? No! Not to mention that I currently suffer grievous injuries, even if I am fit and healthy, I am just an Early Void Refinement Realm expert. Compared to the experts who are qualified enough to be the star lords, I’m still slightly weaker. This young man, however, was daring enough to fight when faced with two other star lords and exposed their presence from the Void Realm… This young man is not afraid of Void Refinement Realm experts at all.

The reason why he is so courteous towards me is probably because I am Man Shan’s father-in-law.

When Man Xiong thought in that way, the impression he had towards Ning Fan changed one hundred and eighty degrees.

He could tell that Ning Fan would only be arrogant and cruel towards his enemies while to the people on his side, however, he would be very amiable and easygoing.

“This young man is not as simple as how the rumors describe him…”

Man Xiong always practiced this principle: if you are nice to me, then I’ll be nice to you. Since Ning Fan was polite towards him, he felt embarrassed to keep a straight face at Ning Fan.

After all, the issue of principle was unchangeable.

The coldness on Man Xiong’s face slightly subsided as he cupped his fists towards Ning Fan to return a greeting.

“You’re truly exceptional! However, the Star Tempering Purple Zoysia can’t be given to you. Please leave!”

Getting straight to the point as the Chinese saying goes: open the door and see the mountain!

Man Xiong was a person who did not like beating around the bush. A single word he spoke had blocked all the threads of discourse that Ning Fan planned to use.
