Top-tier Unruly Master-Chapter 1833 - 870: Underlying Currents Surge
"What?! You are Ding Fan?"
At this moment, Zhang Heng looked at Ding Fan in shock, his eyes full of astonishment, and his mouth twitched slightly before speaking softly to Ding Fan:
"You... you are Ding Fan? So you’re the Ding Fan that our Wild Wolf Gang has been pursuing all this time?!"
Hearing Zhang Heng’s words, Ding Fan’s mouth curled slightly before he softly spoke to Zhang Heng:
"That’s right, I am Ding Fan. Perhaps the person your Wild Wolf Gang talks about is me..."
When Zhang Heng heard Ding Fan’s words, his eyes widened instantly, filled with disbelief. To be honest, Zhang Heng could hardly believe that the person in front of him was Ding Fan, who had been listed as wanted by their Wild Wolf Gang.
"No wonder... It turns out Senior you are Ding Fan. I wondered why Senior your strength is so formidable, and your age..."
At this moment, Ding Fan looked at Zhang Heng’s expression, his mouth curled into a slight smile, then he softly spoke to Zhang Heng:
"So young, right?"
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Zhang Heng nodded excitedly, then spoke to Ding Fan with admiration:
"Senior, you don’t know how much I admire you. Ever since I learned of your exploits, I’ve longed for you in my heart..."
Upon hearing Zhang Heng’s words, a bitter smile flashed across Ding Fan’s face, his mouth twitched slightly, then he spoke to Zhang Heng without humor:
"Alright, stop saying these useless things. Let’s talk about the Wild Wolf Gang first!"
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Zhang Heng was briefly stunned, showing a trace of hesitation before speaking softly to Ding Fan and Long Ren:
"Senior Ding, it’s like this: my status within the Wild Wolf Gang isn’t very high, so I’m not particularly privy to the Gang’s confidential matters. I can only talk about what I’m more familiar with..."
After hearing Ding Fan’s words, Zhang Heng’s eyes flashed slightly, then he nodded slowly to Zhang Heng.
Zhang Heng cleared his throat slightly, showing a thoughtful expression on his face, then spoke softly to Ding Fan and Long Ren:
"The origin of the Wild Wolf Gang is actually quite ordinary. In the past, the Wild Wolf Gang was just an ordinary sect in the Cultivation World, without even any experts at the Dividing Spirit Stage. It was only in the last hundred years that the Wild Wolf Gang suddenly grew to its current stature..."
Upon hearing Zhang Heng’s introduction, Ding Fan’s brows furrowed deeply, his eyes flickered slightly, then he glanced at Long Ren beside him, showing a hint of surprise.
At this moment, Long Ren revealed a puzzled expression upon hearing Zhang Heng’s introduction, hesitated slightly, then softly questioned Zhang Heng:
"Are you saying that the Wild Wolf Gang was once a very weak sect? Your growth has only accelerated like a rocket in recent hundred years?"
Upon hearing Long Ren’s question, Zhang Heng’s face showed a solemn expression, his mouth twitched slightly, then he slowly spoke to Ding Fan and Long Ren:
"Yes, the Wild Wolf Gang used to be extremely weak, and for some unknown reason, experts continuously emerged within the Gang. It didn’t take long before the Wild Wolf Gang’s strength grew to its current level..."
Upon hearing Zhang Heng’s words, Ding Fan’s brows furrowed deeply, his eyes flashing slightly, and a bad premonition slowly rose in his heart.
"The Wild Wolf Gang’s development has been so rapid... How on earth did they achieve it?"
Upon hearing Zhang Heng’s words, Long Ren’s eyes were filled with shock as his mouth twitched slightly, eyes full of solemnity.
Meanwhile, Ding Fan, upon hearing Long Ren’s words, furrowed his brows tightly, pondered slightly, then softly spoke to Long Ren:
"I’m afraid there are also hidden, unknown secrets within the Wild Wolf Gang. Long Ren, to be honest, during this period I infiltrated the depths of the Wild Wolf Gang and discovered traces of divine warrior activities..."
Hearing Ding Fan’s words, Long Ren’s eyes widened in surprise, eyes flickering, and he looked at Ding Fan in astonishment:
"What?! There’s evidence of divine warriors’ activities within the Wild Wolf Gang. Big brother, you’re not kidding me, are you?"
Ding Fan’s face was full of a solemn expression, his mouth trembled slightly, then he softly spoke to Long Ren:
"This is not a joke. Indeed, there are traces of divine warriors’ activities within the Wild Wolf Gang, although I haven’t actually seen a divine warrior myself yet..."
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Long Ren’s face also showed a solemn expression. He suddenly sulked, then softly spoke to Ding Fan:
"Big brother, if this matter involves divine warriors, then things will become very complicated..."
Upon hearing Long Ren’s words, Ding Fan slowly nodded in agreement. What Long Ren said was true, but even though Ding Fan knew there were divine warriors within the Wild Wolf Gang, Ding Fan felt no fear; it was known that Ding Fan himself was also a divine warrior.
Thinking this, Ding Fan looked towards Zhang Heng beside him, then softly instructed him:
"Zhang Heng, tell us everything you know about the Wild Wolf Gang."
At this moment, Zhang Heng was looking at Ding Fan in confusion. To be honest, he hadn’t understood a word of what Ding Fan and Long Ren were discussing just now, though he vaguely knew it all had something to do with the Wild Wolf Gang...
Thinking of this, Zhang Heng spoke to Ding Fan in a subdued voice:
"Senior Ding, I actually don’t know much about how the Wild Wolf Gang has developed over the years, being just a regular disciple myself. But what I want to say is, the Wild Wolf Gang has indeed done many shady things over these years. As for what exactly, I’m not too sure..."
Listening to Zhang Heng’s words, Ding Fan’s expression darkened. After pondering for a moment, he slowly nodded, his face full of grave concern.
"Long Ren, I think we need to deal with the Wild Wolf Gang quickly. I’m afraid something unexpected might happen..."
Long Ren also nodded slowly in agreement with Ding Fan’s words, agreeing wholeheartedly. To be honest, Long Ren felt the same way, as the Wild Wolf Gang’s development had been unnervingly swift, and there might be divine warriors supporting them in the shadows.
Understanding the formidable power of these divine warriors, Ding Fan was deeply concerned. Thinking this over, Long Ren also started to speak slowly:
"Alright! Big Brother, I’ll follow your lead on this, but..."
At this point, a look of hesitation appeared on Long Ren’s face, and Ding Fan noticed this, his gaze flickered, pondering for a moment before confusingly asking Long Ren:
"What’s the matter? Is something wrong?"
Long Ren, after a brief moment of contemplation, slowly spoke to Ding Fan: 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
"It’s like this, Big Brother, the Gloomy Sky Mountain Range is filled with dangers, and coupled with the lurking Wild Wolf Gang, I’m afraid..."
Hearing Long Ren’s concerns, a look of realization flashed across Ding Fan’s face, his lips curled slightly as he teasingly replied to Long Ren:
"I was wondering what it was. Don’t worry about the Yuan Beasts in the Gloomy Sky Mountain Range, I have plenty of medicine pills here. Just have our disciples consume them, and there will be no problems..."
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Long Ren’s lips also curled slightly, and he clapped his hands happily and said to Ding Fan:
"Great! In that case, Big Brother, I’ll leave everything to you to arrange!"
Hearing this, Ding Fan’s lips also curled slightly. With a glint of seriousness in his eyes, after a moment’s hesitation, he spoke to Long Ren in a subdued tone:
"Long Ren, I estimate that the things you previously did in the Gloomy Sky Mountain Range have already been discovered by the spies in the Wild Wolf Gang. From now on, our actions should be more secretive..."
Hearing Ding Fan’s words, a look of self-reproach flashed across Long Ren’s face, his expression darkening slightly, and he spoke softly to Ding Fan:
"Big Brother, it’s all my fault. Please punish me!"
Seeing Long Ren in this state, Ding Fan couldn’t help but show a trace of helplessness, his lips twitching slightly as he spoke to Long Ren, somewhat exasperated:
"Alright, there’s no point in saying this now, besides, with so many people coming with us this time, it’s impossible not to be discovered..."
Hearing Ding Fan say this, Long Ren felt a little better, his expression darkening slightly as he asked Ding Fan:
"Then Big Brother, what do you think we should do now?"
Ding Fan pondered for a while before speaking in a subdued tone to Long Ren and Zhang Heng nearby:
"Since our movements have already been discovered, we might as well show them what it means to fish in troubled waters!"
Long Ren was taken aback upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, his eyes blinking as he confusedly asked Ding Fan:
"Big Brother, how can we fish in troubled waters when our movements have already been exposed?"
Hearing Long Ren’s question, Ding Fan’s lips curled slightly, a gleam flashing in his eyes as he calmly replied to Long Ren:
"You’ll know when the time comes..."
Looking at Ding Fan’s mysterious demeanor, Long Ren couldn’t help but feel a trace of helplessness in his eyes. However, at this point, he wouldn’t say much more. Only on the day of the actual operation would Long Ren know for sure, right?
While Ding Fan and the others were plotting, the people of the Wild Wolf Gang were not idle. From the gang leader and down, everyone was busy. Ever since they’d learned of Ding Fan and the others’ whereabouts, everyone was on high alert.
It must be understood that the strength Ding Fan and his group displayed was overwhelming. Most importantly, Ding Fan had been able to infiltrate the Wild Wolf Gang and steal all their treasures without anyone noticing, which alone was enough to make the Wild Wolf Gang apprehensive.
At this moment, the Wild Wolf Gang’s leader sat in the main hall, looking down at everyone with a cold gaze, speaking in a clear, ethereal voice:
"Do you know what those people outside the Gloomy Sky Mountain Range are up to now?"
A disciple responsible for intelligence slowly stood up and responded to the gang leader:
"Reporting to the leader, from our observations in recent days, those people are still camped outside the Gloomy Sky Mountain Range, but they haven’t made any other moves recently."
