Tian Lu is completely provoking.

Bare-faced provocation!

In front of everyone, denying that Elder Han An was killed by Lin Fan, refusing to acknowledge Lin Fan's ability.

Although everyone clearly saw Elder Han An's death on their knees, Tian Lu's righteous speech makes one doubt their own eyes, wondering if they were mistaken just now.

Could it be that Elder Han An's death was not caused by Lin Fan?

The crowd was confused, looking at each other, unsure whether to believe their own eyes or Tian Lu's words.

They say seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving.

But Tian Lu's status is high, being Elder Han An's chief disciple, his words carry weight, and he is a rising star with boundless prospects in the Water Clan.

Playing the role of Lan Zhengqing's right-hand man, a strong henchman.

Therefore, the higher the status of the person speaking, the more people are willing to believe.

After all, everyone wants to flatter them, even if they speak the most outrageous, peculiar, and fantastic things, as long as it's not too foolish, someone will jump out to agree.

And there you have it!

Several opportunists among the Darts Masters immediately jumped out, seeking to curry favor with Tian Lu, or rather, with someone by Lan Zhengqing's side, immediately shouting in agreement.

"Right! Lin Fan is just an insignificant ant, can't even compare to Elder Han An's little finger, how could he possibly kill Elder Han An?"

"I don't believe it either! Elder Han An must have encountered trouble because of his own reasons, it has nothing to do with that guy."

"Although that ant attacked Elder Han An, his power is far from enough to kill Elder Han An. Three billion pounds of power may seem terrifying to everyone else, but to Elder Han An, it's like drizzle, not frightening at all."

"Exactly, I also felt Elder Han An seemed a bit off earlier, must be due to health issues. Lin Fan took advantage of the opportunity to attack, shameful, despicable act of a petty villain, trash!"

Several opportunists among the Darts Masters jumped out, parroting the words, calling black white, completely reversing the truth, ignoring the facts that just occurred right in front of them. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

The other Darts Masters did not express any opposition.

Who dares to express opposition!

Tian Lu is one of Lan Zhengqing's people, equating to representing Lan Zhengqing's authority in front of them.

Who dares to go against Lan Zhengqing?

That's courting death!

Better to keep silent than risk saying too much and making a mistake. So might as well shut your mouth tightly, stay aside obediently, watch things unfold, and offer no opinion, also a way to safeguard oneself.

However, doing so allows the rumors earlier to become rampant, becoming mainstream opinion, and part of the main narrative expressed.

It must not be allowed to become like this.

Though there are few opportunists and flatterers, the majority dare not speak, thus the minority becomes mainstream opinion.

Lin Fan shook his head helplessly, couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

Really wants to cover the sky with one hand!

Other capabilities mediocre, but obscuring the truth, "calling a stag a horse" indeed top-class!

"Tian Lu." Lan Yunwei took a deep breath, slowly walked over. She saw Lin Fan's restrained posture, inevitable concern in her heart, intending to ask Tian Lu to release Lin Fan.

But before Lan Yunwei finished speaking, Tian Lu raised a hand, interrupting her.

"Miss, no need to say more. We act on orders, compelled to do so. If you have anything to say, you may approach the Young Master; as long as the Young Master commands, we will comply."

Tian Lu spoke with utmost respect, yet his tone was very firm. The implication being, we only follow Young Master Lan Zhengqing's orders, no command from anyone else, no obedience!

Lan Yunwei had just opened her mouth but was silenced by Tian Lu, left speechless. She stared at Tian Lu's stern, solemn face, sighed inwardly, her brows furrowing slightly.

"So you remember to call me Miss, yet from your tone, you completely disregard me as the Miss."

"Not daring, we always respect the Miss, absolutely dare not offend. But now we are executing orders, thus only follow the Young Master's dispatch. Otherwise, ordinarily, I certainly act according to the Miss's intent, but now due to special circumstances, beg the Miss's forgiveness."

Round and round in circles, yet didn't offer Lan Yunwei a chance to speak, completely stifling what she intended to say.

His words left Lan Yunwei speechless, unable to pinpoint any flaws.

Tian Lu is indeed executing orders, and during task execution directly follows Lan Zhengqing's dispatch, no other person, even including the Clan Leader, has the right to instruct Tian Lu's group of five; Tian Lu has the right to refuse their requests.

Whether unreasonable or reasonable, can reject acceptance.

In other words.

Tian Lu now equates to the embodiment of Lan Zhengqing, his words are what Lan Zhengqing wants to express.

He is now Lan Zhengqing's spokesperson!

Lan Yunwei's eye corner twitched fiercely, eyes filled with displeasure, yet powerless. Since Tian Lu has spoken to this extent, repeatedly bringing up Lan Zhengqing, if she insists harder, Tian Lu naturally wouldn't embarrass her, but it would harm the Water Clan's reputation.

She pondered, for an ant, not worth jeopardizing the entire Water Clan.

Moreover.

So many men in the Five Elements Realm, is it truly necessary to be Lin Fan?!!

She doesn't believe no one is superior to Lin Fan.

So.

Lan Yunwei didn't say anything more, only gently nodded, resentfully glanced at Lin Fan, and retreated aside.

"Brother! Brother, hold on, let's talk this out." Zhu Qilue seeing Tian Lu heading towards Lin Fan, thought he was going to attack Lin Fan, hurriedly rushed over, intercepting Tian Lu.

"Young Master Zhu."

Tian Lu's voice, tone, and demeanor were very respectful, yet always seemed dismissive.

Making people extremely annoyed.

"What does Lan Zhengqing intend with Lin Fan?"

"That, probably isn't Young Master Zhu's concern, right."

"No, why would it not concern me?"

"Is this ant part of your Fire Clan?"

"Uh..."

"Since not, then Young Master Zhu please refrain from meddling, mind not getting yourself burned."

Tian Lu coldly finished speaking, with four fellow disciples, Fei Zhang, Yu Ze, Yang Biao, Jun Hao, bristling with momentum, murderous aura, bypassed Zhu Qilue, completely disregarding him, treating him as non-existent, directly ignoring him!

Headed straight towards Lin Fan.

Zhu Qilue stood frozen momentarily, what?! He was actually ignored!

Such a large living person standing before Tian Lu, though he felt Tian Lu's gaze wandering over him, yet felt as though Tian Lu was sightless, as if he didn't exist.

This feeling was extremely infuriating, simply humiliating!

As the noble Young Master of the Fire Clan, just blatantly ignored like this.

Utter humiliation!

He was about to confront Tian Lu, but Tian Lu already led his men before Lin Fan.

"Ant, don't think that with some trifling skills you can act wildly. Though Master's incident was an 'accident', it doesn't mean I forgive you."

"Accident?" Lin Fan chuckled, even though restrained by four towering ice pillars, his mindset remained excellent. Without it, he wouldn't be the Lin Fan of today; only a good mindset can progress further to greater heights. "You little trash, perhaps have a misunderstanding about 'accident', your understanding differs from mine! Or maybe you didn't graduate elementary, unaware of what you're saying, then I suggest returning for reconstruction, stop embarrassing yourself here."
