"Seventh brother, stop messing around. Even if Ye Fan is not suspected, we can investigate him and it will be alright, what's more there is a report here, it's within reason if we interrogate him. Why can't we endure it once we reach your place?"
The second clan elder bellowed at Su Mu.
"Speak less of this nonsense. If others want to interrogate you, you can interrogate them as you please. My disciple won't be able to do so!"
Su Mu said in a deep voice, standing there with his hands on his hips, like a shrew. Ye Fan was too lazy to speak anymore. With his master here, he would settle everything for him.
"Alright, alright, you two stop arguing, didn't you want to give your disciple some compensation? If after finding out, this matter really has nothing to do with him, then I will compensate him, and Ye Fan can come find me when the time comes."
The Third Elder saw that the two of them were actually getting more and more boisterous, so he had no choice but to intervene and directly settle this matter.
"Ol 'Three, you said it, but I'm not forcing you. When the time comes, don't go back on your word."
Su Mu was overjoyed upon hearing this, and spoke to the third clan elder.
"How would I dare? If I go back on my word, wouldn't you be pestering me every day?" Alright, let's take Ye Fan and leave first. Second Elder and I still have things to do. "
The Third Elder waved at Su Mu and Ye Fan impatiently, hoping to send the master and disciple off quickly.
"Disciple will take his leave!"
Ye Fan bowed towards the Second and Third Elders, then turned and left the great hall. Su Mu was not in a hurry to leave. Just as Ye Fan walked out of the hall, the hall was filled with sounds of argument. Evidently, Su Mu had not finished counting yet.
Ye Fan shrugged helplessly, then returned to his own residence. He then called Long Yuan and the others over and specifically instructed them once more.
Although he could be considered to have muddled through today, Ye Fan could not let his guard down. The person who wrote the letter seemed to understand Duan Xinglang's entire plan, which was why he was certain that Duan Xinglang had died in his hands.
If he didn't find this person, Ye Fan would never be at ease.
"The person who wrote the report did not dare to sign it. I think it must be someone we know, could it be Yue Wei?"
After Long Yuan heard everything, he couldn't help but target Yue Wei with his suspicions. After all, this Yue Wei knew of all of Duan Xinglang's movements, if not for his broken legs, he would definitely have followed Duan Xinglang to do so.
"I think so too, but if it really was him, then it would be easy to handle, because he knows that Duan Xinglang himself went to kill me, so he doesn't dare to say anything else. "What I'm worried about is that this person isn't him. If that's really the case, then we'll be in trouble. Maybe there's a fish that escaped the net."
Ye Fan said in a serious tone.
"If that's really the case, then it will be difficult to find this person. After all, we do not know much about Duan Xinglang."
Long Yuan said as he frowned.
"From today onwards, we will take turns to monitor Yue Wei. Pay attention to who he meets, I think that if he loses Duan Xinglang as his backer, he will definitely be in a hurry to meet Yue Wei."
Ye Fan said solemnly, he did not wish for anything to happen to this matter.
"Okay, we'll watch him from tomorrow onwards. "No, from today onwards!"
Long Yuan nodded and said.
"Alright, I'll leave this matter to you guys. I'm currently grounded, so there are many places that are inconvenient to go. Otherwise, it might arouse the suspicion of others."
Ye Fan said solemnly, his suspicions that he was not completely dispelled. According to his conjecture, the Second Elder would definitely arrange for people to watch him from the shadows, so he could not display any abnormalities.
Long Yuan, Fan Zhanyang and Cheng Xianjun then started to arrange related matters, while Ye Fan had himself locked in his cultivation room. After obtaining Duan Xinglang's Ever-Flame Battle Soul, he couldn't help but think of a new attack method, and it would be perfect for him to study it in the next few days.
In the blink of an eye, it was already noon of the second day. Ye Fan left his small courtyard and headed towards the training grounds, arriving at the tower of trials.
On the way, he deliberately looked around, and sure enough, there were two disciples of the Blue Cloud Sect that appeared beside him from time to time. It seemed like they were the people who were sent to monitor him.
But Ye Fan did not reveal anything strange, he pretended to not know, and walked straight into the resting area of the tower.1
Just as he entered the resting area, Ye Fan discovered that he was writing information on Nie Feng everywhere, and directly pulled Nie Feng to the side.
"You finally appeared. I thought you were captured."
When Nie Feng saw Ye Fan, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"Captured? Why should I be caught? "
Ye Fan asked suspiciously.
"You're still pretending, you dare say that Duan Xinglang's death has nothing to do with you? However, your methods are quite impressive. Even so many experts were taken care of by you. "
Nie Feng said with a light smile.
"I don't know what you're talking about, but don't pin me down like that, I don't even know how Duan Xinglang died."
Ye Fan immediately shook his head and denied. If Nie Feng knew about this, he would spread the word around the entire world.
