C1552 Quadruple City Li Family
"This." Xu Fann was stunned.
"Is that true?" Xu Fann went up to Anna and pricked her ear, crying out in pain.
Xu Fann said embarrassedly, "Sorry, sorry."
"Okay, okay. Let's talk about why you're here and why you're being treated like that by those people." Seeing that Anna was about to go on a rampage, Xu Fann changed the topic.
Anna's gaze also looked into the distance as she slowly said, "You should know that I also caused some trouble that day and was stripped of my position as a mayor. That town just now was my hometown, what a pity …"
As Anna spoke, her voice became choked with sobs. Xu Fann frowned slightly and asked softly, "Did something happen?"
Taking a deep breath, Anna calmed herself down and said, "I heard the news about my parents' death as soon as I got back."
"Was it done by someone from the Lee Family?" Xu Fann asked.
Anna didn't say anything. She just nodded her head and closed her eyes. Two streams of tears flowed down from her beautiful eyes and her face was filled with pain.
Xu Fann did not disturb her and allowed Anna to vent her pent-up emotions like this.
After a long while, Anna finally said slowly, "Patriarch of the Four Great Imperial Cities' Lee Family, I don't know where you heard that there was an important treasure in my family, but after searching for a few times without any results, you actually killed my parents."
Anna clenched her fists tightly. She was obviously angry. "After I came back, these people seemed to have seen hope. They pestered me every day, hoping to find the whereabouts of the so-called great treasure."
"What treasure is it?" Xu Fann asked curiously. The moment Xu Fann finished, Anna looked at him vigilantly.
Xu Fann touched his nose awkwardly. He shrugged helplessly and said, "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it, don't look at me like that."
"It's nothing much, it's just that I've been tense for the past few days. Don't blame me for being a little nervous, benefactor." Anna said, embarrassed.
"I understand." Xu Fann nodded slightly. It wasn't easy for a girl to be this strong after being exposed to such an unexpected situation.
"As for what treasure it is, I don't know about it at all. I've never heard of it before, and I've never heard my parents mention it since I was young." Anna sighed as she spoke. Xu Fann's gaze was attracted by the pendant on Anna's chest.
"This pendant of yours is very unique." Anna looked down and said, "This is the only memorial my parents have left for me."
Xu Fann suddenly felt as if something was pulling the Innate Genuine Qi in his body, and after a moment, he confirmed that the reason for being drawn was because of the pendant. This made Xu Fann extremely shocked, as there was a high possibility that there was a treasure that the Lee Family of the four cities were looking for.
"Anna, right? Your pendant isn't ordinary. It's very likely to be one of those so-called great treasures." Xu Fann said to Anna with a serious expression.
Anna also exclaimed in shock, "What?!" He took off the pendant and the two of them examined it for a long time.
Although Anna had no cultivation results, her knowledge was quite vast. After looking for a long time, she still could not find anything abnormal, so she asked, "Benefactor, could you have seen wrongly?"
"That won't happen. The true energy within my body can clearly feel that there is an extremely powerful energy fluctuating within this pendant." Xu Fann shook his head and said. Although he was injured from the backlash, he could clearly feel the movements of the Innate Genuine Qi in his body.
"In that case, I'll give it to you." There was no reluctance in her eyes. Instead, there was a sense of self-mockery and loneliness.
"No. Your parents died because of this, so how could I take away your family's treasure?" Xu Fann never coveted these things. He was brought here by the Asura Lord Fire Qilin, he didn't have any great treasures. Furthermore, Xu Fann wasn't the kind of person who coveted cheap goods.
"You saved my life. Just take it. This pendant was originally a pair, and the other one is in my house. I don't know if it is also a treasure or not." Anna said.
Let's not worry about all this for now. The people from the Four Great Imperial City's Lee Family must be looking for us everywhere, so we should leave this place first. Xu Fann was never the kind of rash person.
"Yes." Anna nodded slightly. Her short silver hair swayed with the wind. Xu Fann felt like someone was having a heart attack.
Then, just when the two of them got up and were about to leave, they heard a hubbub from a distance. Xu Fann's face immediately darkened as he protected Anna behind him.
"It's the people from Four Directions City's Lee Family!" Anna said from behind Xu Fann, and her voice was trembling a little, obviously because she had suffered a lot from the attacks from the Lee Family of the four cities.
"Uncle, it's this person!" Hurry and kill him! " The man who was beaten up by Xu Fann said. An old man with a wretched appearance glanced at him and said, "Scram, something shameful."2
"I am the Lee Family Elder of Four Directions City, Tribulus. May I ask what is your relationship with this woman?" The old man said as he sized up Xu Fann with his pair of small eyes. Finally, he stopped looking at the two swords behind Xu Fann.
Xu Fann said expressionlessly, "I'm not willing to give up."
"Hahaha, if that's the case, then alright, this old man will not ask anymore about this matter. Meeting is fate, my Four Corners City's Lee Family is always hospitable, little brother, would you mind coming to the palace to drink a cup of water?" Terry said with a smile.
"To steal someone's treasure, it's best not to go to a place like this where people live. Otherwise, my shoes would get dirty." Xu Fann said with disdain.
"Good, good, good. As expected of a young hero." There was a trace of impatience and ruthlessness on his face.
Terry walked a few steps towards Xu Fann and said, "Don't blame me for bullying the juniors. Don't blame me for not giving you the opportunity to hand over the two swords behind you. I can take charge on behalf of the Patriarch and let you go."
"Otherwise?" Xu Fann was a bit amused, he immediately took off the two Carbuncle Sword s behind him. Although one was real and one was fake, Xu Fann wouldn't give him the face of the person in front of him even if he threw it away.
The moment Xu Fann took down the Carbuncle Sword, a cold light shot out in all directions, and the elders of the Four Corners City's Lee Family were unable to shift their gazes away. These two swords could be seen as treasures, and compared to the treasures that the Anna family had passed down, it was truly a lot more.
"Hmph, how stubborn!" Terry snorted coldly and then turned into a shadow, charging towards Xu Fann. His hands constantly changed in mid-air as he struck out with a palm that instantly flew towards Xu Fann. It was obvious that this was an extremely sinister palm technique.
