1700 Requesting Help
Seeing this, Nan Yifan finally heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately…
Inside were the auras of Nan Yiyi and the others. If anything happened to either of them, the jade pendant would immediately react.
From the looks of things, all four of them should still be alive. However, why have they suddenly broken off contact?
Nan Yifan only had this son and daughter, and he doted on them very much. Therefore, he had specially made a lot of preparations to be able to contact them at any time. But now, that connection had suddenly been severed!
How could he not be anxious?
“Uncle Dan, something must have happened to them!” Nan Yifan said firmly.
The old man called Uncle Dan also frowned. “What about the Eldest Young Master? You—”
Nan Yifan’s expression darkened. “He can’t be reached either.”
If not for that, he wouldn’t be so nervous.
Uncle Dan didn’t expect the matter to be so serious and hurriedly advised, “Don’t be anxious. Look, they’re actually still fine, right? As for why we can’t contact them, there must be a reason. I’ll investigate immediately!”
With that, he turned around and planned to walk out.
Nan Yifan put away the jade pendant and gritted his teeth. “There’s no need to investigate. Something must’ve happened in the God-Killing Tumulus!”
He couldn’t think of any other reason!
He thought for a moment, then walked out almost without hesitation. “I’ll personally make a trip to the God-Killing Tumulus!”
Uncle Dan was shocked. “Clan Leader, aren’t you going in a hurry? The clan—”
“There’s no time.” Nan Yifan stopped in his tracks, but his expression turned even uglier. “Even if they had encountered trouble, this never happened in the past. This time, they must’ve encountered great danger! What kind of place is the God-Killing Tumulus? If we don’t get there in time, I’m afraid it’ll be too late!”
Uncle Dan wanted to say something but hesitated. I’m actually very worried about their situation, but many people in the clan don’t know about their trip this time. If the family head goes over, the news will definitely spread like wildfire. At that time, I’m afraid—
“Uncle Dan, now isn’t the time to be calculative! If something really happens to Yuxing and Yiyi—” Nan Yifan didn’t finish his sentence, but his expression said it all. No matter what the consequences are, nothing else matters as long as they are fine. But if they are dead… then everything will be gone! At that time, there will be no chance to remedy it or regret it!
Uncle Dan’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately lowered his head. “Clan Leader is right. I was confused!”
Nan Yifan waved his hand.
“I know you’re also thinking about the overall situation, but this matter involves the God-Killing Tumulus. I’m afraid we can’t care less.”
He frowned and thought for a moment. “Invite Luo Yan and the others to go with you.”
Uncle Dan was stunned for a moment before he immediately bowed and responded respectfully. “Yes.”
With Elder Wu Peng and Elder Bai Tong accompanying them, something still happened. The situation there is probably more complicated than expected. It is safer for a few more people to go.
Uncle Dan opened the door and went out. His figure quickly disappeared from sight.
Nan Yifan paced back and forth, waiting anxiously. This happened too suddenly. They didn’t even have time to send out any distress messages before—
What exactly happened? Nan Yifan didn’t dare to think too much about it.
There had always been all kinds of rumors about the God-Killing Tumulus. However, the two times he had been there in the past hadn’t been dangerous, so he had always felt that the God-Killing Tumulus wasn’t as terrifying as the rumors said.
Until this time—
He began to regret it secretly. It was still a little risky to send only Elder Wu Peng and Elder Bai Tong! If I had known…
But how could there be a cure for regret in this world? The only thing he could do now was silently pray that those people would be safe before they arrived at the God-Killing Tumulus.
Soon, Uncle Dan rushed over with a few people.
Nan Yifan quickly scanned the area and was stunned. “Where’s Luo Yan?”
In the entire Nan family, Luo Yan’s combat strength could be ranked in the top five. Moreover, he had always doted on Nan Yiyi, so this time, Nan Yifan had made up his mind to bring Luo Yan along from the beginning.
Uncle Dan’s expression was a little subtle. “Luo Yan isn’t here.”
“He’s not here? He’s usually obsessed with cultivation and rarely goes out. Why is he suddenly gone now? He—” Suddenly, Nan Yifan paused. There is only one reason why Luo Yan would leave so quietly. Could it be—
Seeing that he seemed to have guessed it, Uncle Dan nodded helplessly. “He seems to have already left for the God-Killing Tumulus.”
As expected!
For a moment, Nan Yifan’s mood became even more complicated. Logically speaking, Yiyi and the others should’ve gained a strong helper since Luo Yan has gone. Therefore, why did something still happen? And judging from the time, they seem to have met with an accident after Luo Yan arrived!
This made Nan Yifan even more worried.
He suppressed the surging emotions in his chest and abdomen. Without hesitation, he then moved! “Uncle Dan, stay behind and deal with the clan’s matters. The others, follow me!”
No matter what, I have to bring Yiyi and the others back safely!
…
Godly Phoenix Hall.
In the hall, Yi Zhao sat at the head of the table with the elders on both sides.
Only four of the five elders had come today. Elder Yi Gong did not appear here.
Yi Zhao glanced at the empty spot. “Yi Gong still hasn’t come today?”
Elder Yi Jiao looked a little embarrassed and replied in a low voice, “Yes. Ever since Yi Ran’s accident, First Elder has been sad and hasn’t adjusted his emotions.”
The people present had different expressions. How is he sad for Yi Ran? He is clearly sad that his years of hard work have been wasted!
All these years, he has spent a lot of effort nurturing Yi Ran. How could he accept this outcome?
Yi Zhao couldn’t be bothered to expose him, so he nodded indifferently. “Then, let him rest well.”
Anyway, it wouldn’t matter much if he didn’t come.
After that, the few of them reported and summarized some things in the clan as usual.
Yi Zhao made a decision.
In fact, ever since the ancestral ceremony ended, there had been nothing major happening at Godly Phoenix Mountain.
“Recently, the children of the clan seem to be much more diligent in their cultivation than before.” Elder Yi Shang smiled. “They must’ve been stimulated by Tuan Zi during the ancestral ceremony.”
At the mention of Tuan Zi, a smile appeared on Yi Zhao’s ice-cold face. “Tuan Zi is younger than them, but she’s much stronger. Of course, it’s impossible for them not to feel anything. It’s not bad to have the heart to chase after Tuan Zi.”
Unfortunately, nobody knows when Tuan Zi will return. Yi Zhao thought regretfully.
Suddenly, a reddish-gold feather floated over from the hall.
Yi Zhao’s expression changed, and he abruptly stood up!
