Chapter 170 Late night secret conversation
Everyone was sleeping in their clothes, so when they heard the noise they came out of their tents, gathered around the campfire, and stood behind Xu Fan and Zhang Xiaohou, looking down the mountain.

"Tsk tsk, there is always someone higher than you. We moved forward overnight as soon as the fire disaster ended, but there are still people ahead of us!"

A voice came from the darkness. A trace of doubt appeared on Zhao Manyan's face. The voice sounded familiar, but Zhao Chenying smiled in surprise.

"Dad, Mom, you're here!"

Zhao Chenying said in surprise, she frowned slightly, she knew that her father was a high-level wizard, she was afraid that Xu Fan and others' contract with Yan Ji would fail.

"Mr. Zhao is really a shrewd man. It's ok for him to be a high-level wizard, but he even arranged an ambush in advance!"

The people from the Hunter Alliance sighed, and everyone could see clearly that there were actually more than fifty people descending, but these fifty people were divided into three distinct groups.

There are only two people in the group, namely Zhao Chenying's father Zhao Yulin and Zhao Chenying's mother Jiang Feng.

The first group was from the Hunter Alliance, with more than thirty people, while the third group was from the military, with only a dozen people.

"Minister Liu is wrong. Perhaps not all the people above are Mr. Zhao's people!"

A heroic female officer slowly walked to the front of the crowd, but her eyes fell on Zhang Xiaohou next to Xu Fan, but soon shifted to Xu Fan again.

"But we should really thank Mr. Zhao. Otherwise, we would have to spend more time to find this place, and there would probably be a lot of unnecessary losses!"

Nan Yu smiled, and her words made Minister Liu of the Hunter Alliance laugh. It was true that they had been following the mark all the way here, and what Zhao Yulin said just now was simply a cover-up.

Mo Fan and Zhang Xiaohou looked at each other and then secretly glanced at Zhao Chenying. As expected, Boss Xu Fan’s guess was correct. There was indeed something wrong with Zhao Chenying.

However, Zhao Manyan lowered his head, not daring to look at Xu Fan and the others. He also realized that he was being used by Zhao Chenying, and was afraid that Zhao Chenying was here to snatch Yan Ji away.

"You guys are going up the mountain now? We should be blocking the way. Just go up the mountain. We still need to rest. Don't disturb us!"

Xu Fan said slowly, and then everyone followed him and took a step back.

"We've been traveling for such a long time, it's time for us to take a good rest!"

Nan Yu said with a smile. She had recognized Xu Fan, Mo Fan and others, especially Zhang Xiaohou. As the best of the southern military, there was some competition between her and Zhang Xiaohou.

"But, Commander Nan Yu..."

The adjutant was a little confused, but he shut up as soon as Nan Yu raised his hand. Now that Nan Yu was the leader, all they had to do was obey.

"Colonel Zhang, I think you guys don't mind if we take a rest nearby!"

Nan Yu said Zhang Xiaohou's name, but her eyes were fixed on Xu Fan. Xu Fan knew that she was actually trying to get his opinion.

"Commander Nan wants to rest. Go ahead and rest. After all, this mountain is not ours!"

Xu Fan waved his hand and said, and the highly mobile soldiers started to get busy in the open space on the other side of the mountain road as Nan Yu waved his hand.

"Humph, why are you guys keeping me in suspense?"

The people from the Hunter Alliance were extremely confused, but no one could answer his questions. This was in the wilderness, and everyone else could be seen as an enemy or a competitor. So he snorted coldly and led everyone to the top of the mountain. In an instant, the mountain path became empty.

“Nephew Manyan, you don’t mind letting us rest here for a while, do you?” Zhao Yulin did not ask his daughter, but looked at Zhao Manyan instead. Naturally, no one would refuse. Zhao Manyan was a little confused when he saw Jiang Feng wrapped in bandages, but he did not ask directly.

After Zhao Yulin and Jiang Feng entered their own tent, Zhao Manyan carefully patted Xu Fan's tent.

"what happened?"

Xu Fan walked out of the tent and found Mo Fan, Zhang Xiaohou and Nan Yu were all there.

A magical glow flashed on Nan Yu's body, and the sound of the conversation between the few people was blocked. This made Xu Fan take a closer look at the sound-based dimensional magic, but he didn't know when he would be able to awaken this system.

"Now there is a problem. My uncle, who clearly said he couldn't come before, changed his mind for some reason, and he should be following us closely. And the most important point is that he is a high-level wizard!"

Zhao Manyan glanced at Nan Yu, only to see that Nan Yu was also frowning.

"And he's the only high-level wizard!"

Nan Yu added that she knew everyone in the Hunter Alliance, and the strongest one was only slightly stronger than her, having just reached the mid-level. However, she was not very clear about the strength of Xu Fan and others. She only roughly knew that Xu Fan was at least at the mid-level.

"What happened? Where is your high-level wizard?"

Zhang Xiaohou asked in confusion. According to his experience, this kind of operation must be led by a high-level magician, or even more than one or two.

"There was a riot in the Shawang River that day. Even with the psychic mage's calming, as soon as the high-level mage appeared, those demon soldiers would still rush out!"

Nan Yu spoke slowly, focusing her attention on Xu Fan. She suspected that Xu Fan and others who crossed the river first might have done something.

"The Hunter Alliance has more than 30 people, and you are more than a dozen people. We have quite a few people on our side as well, and we all have the ability to fight against high-level mages. It seems that the ownership of the treasure on the top of the mountain will depend on each person's ability!"

Xu Fan said playfully that he certainly knew that there was something wrong with Zhao Yulin and his wife, but now was not the time to expose the problem.

"There is only one thing on the top of the mountain that is worth fighting for. As for the other thing, we will not fight with you!"

Nan Yu knew very well what was on the mountain, but she still didn't know that the Fire Tribulation Fruit was the new Flame Princess.

"Four forces are fighting for two treasures. I just don't know who will have the last laugh!"

Xu Fan smiled and waved his hand, and the sound barrier set up by Nan Yu was broken. If Nan Yu's side really did not have any high-level magicians, then Nan Yu and others were just here for tourism.

"No matter what happens in the wild, it won't involve Anjieli!"

Nan Yu glanced in the direction of Zhao Yulin and his wife. Even if all the treasures fell into Xu Fan's hands, the military would not hold him accountable.

"Haha, of course! Otherwise, there is one thing, we must fight for it openly and honestly. If anyone plots or uses tricks, don't blame me, Xu Fan, for being rude!"

Xu Fan laughed loudly, then left with Mo Fan and the others. Zhao Yulin and his wife, who were hiding in the dark, had ugly expressions on their faces. It was obvious that Xu Fan's last sentence was meant for them.

"Humph, you brat, I will make sure you know how powerful I am tomorrow!"
