<h4>Chapter 1981: Chapter 1978: Dragon n Situation (1)</h4>


    In the Dragon n, besides the Hall Master, Ninth Grade Elders hold the greatest power.


    They can easily decide the life and death of every member of the Dragon n.


    They stand high above, looking down upon countless people.


    They can even preside over the grand affairs of the entire Dragon n in the absence of the Hall Master.


    Elder Ren had only seen a Ninth Grade Elder from afar once and never thought the other would appear in front of him.


    After all, he was just a small Fifth Grade Elder, nearly negligible in the Dragon n.


    But why did the othere here under these circumstances?


    His first subconscious thought was of Ren Feifan and the little girl in the room.


    However, upon further thought, it didn’t make sense. The Dragon Hall had no knowledge of Ren Feifan’s existence, much less a reason to send a Ninth Grade Elder personally.


    If the Overlord Dragon King sent someone, it would make more sense.


    He stopped overthinking and stepped forward to meet, performing a grand salute with respect, saying: "Supreme Elder, why have youe to my humble abode, truly bringing it great honor..."


    In the Dragon n, Ninth Grade Elders are also called Supreme Elders.


    The Dragon n Supreme Elder paused, observing Elder Ren with interest, discovering that he was gravely injured.


    He was slightly surprised, as Dragon n Elders hold positions far superior to others and are incredibly powerful, so why was he injured?


    "What happened to your injuries?" the Supreme Elder asked, his voice deep, like the tolling of a great bell.


    Of course, Elder Ren could not speak the truth, and respectfully replied: "Reporting to the Supreme Elder, I identally became possessed while cultivating."


    "Possessed? Hmph!" The Supreme Elder sneered, obviously displeased with Elder Ren’s lie, "Do you think my cultivation cannot see why you’re injured?"


    Elder Ren’s expression changed, and he promptly rephrased: "Reporting, my lord, I was identally injured while sparring with a friend, not possessed."


    The Supreme Elder did not bother with Elder Ren and headed directly to the cultivation room where Ren Feifan and hispanion were.


    Seeing this, Elder Ren’s expression shifted, hurriedly blocking the Supreme Elder’s path.


    "Supreme Elder, my friend is in seclusion, please do not disturb, or being possessed could be a problem."


    The Supreme Elder halted, nced inside, and demanded, "Is Ren Feifan inside?"


    Elder Ren never expected the Supreme Elder to ask for Ren Feifan directly by name, causing him to worry—is the Supreme Elder betraying too? Intending to capture Ren Feifan to curry favor with the Overlord Dragon King?


    This possibility was not out of the question; anyone couldpromise under sufficient interest!


    "Do you still want to block my way?" the Supreme Elder said, squinting his eyes slightly.


    No longer hesitating, despite his injuries, Elder Ren covered himself with dragon force and dered righteously, "Supreme Elder, inside is my friend. I promised to protect him, so I won’t step aside for anyone whoes, and if you insist on forcing your way in, then forgive my offense!"


    His voice carried a trace of resoluteness.


    Even so, Elder Ren’s hand was already forming a longsword, exuding a cold killing intent.


    The situation outside naturally caught Ren Feifan’s attention; he furrowed his brows slightly, realizing that the opponent’s power was strong,pletely beyond Elder Ren’s ability to resist.


    Critically thinking of the current situation, Ren Feifan found Elder Ren to be a very fine person.


    He couldn’t let the other get further injured because of him.


    Without hesitation, Ren Feifan instructed the dragon girl to remain silent, then pushed the door open and walked out.


    Upon seeing the Dragon n’s Ninth Grade Elder, he emitted a cold aura, prepared with the eighth-level killing formation, ready to use it to y the opponent if they made a move.


    "Looking for me? Let’s battle if we must, spare the idle chatter!"


    Upon these words, the whole world seemed to fall silent.


    A few secondster, the Supreme Elder burst outughing heartily, his voice filled with delight, echoing throughout Ren’s Mansion.


    Seeing the Supreme Elderughing, not only Elder Ren but even Ren Feifan sensed something was amiss.


    As Ren Feifan was about to speak, the Dragon n’s Supreme Elder exined: "A misunderstanding, it’s all a misunderstanding."


    Before anyone could react, the Supreme Elder sped his hands and respectfully said to Ren Feifan, "Mr. Ren, I have long admired your great name."


    At that moment, Ren Feifan was stunned.


    Elder Ren also stood frozen.


    The dragon girl inside the room was also curious, extending her spiritual sense to check the situation outside.


    A Ninth Grade Elder of the Dragon n, the highest rank, actually addressed Ren Feifan as Mr. Ren.


    "Long admired your great name?"


    The key was the respectful tone.


    How could this be possible?


    Seemingly sensing everyone’s confusion, the Supreme Elderughed and exined, "Mr. Ren, it’s actually the Hall Master who sent me to find you."


    Hearing the words "Hall Master," Elder Ren almost fell to the ground


    The Hall Master looking for Ren Feifan?


    How could it be!


    He drew a sharp breath, feeling a storm surge within his heart.


    This was the Hall Master!


    The highest of the Ninth Grade Elders, in front of the Hall Master, was only a servant!


    It could be said, the Hall Master was the true power holder in the Dragon n!


    Even the Overlord Dragon King had no right topare power with the Hall Master!


    But such a person was seeking Ren Feifan?


    Elder Ren stared intently at the Supreme Elder, wanting to discern if this was a guise.


    Otherwise, it truly made no sense!


    But no matter how he looked, the Supreme Elder before him was authentic, and his gaze was immensely sincere.


    Damn, the Hall Master was indeed looking for Ren Feifan?


    Suddenly, something urred to Elder Ren, recalling that Ren Feifan once mentioned having an unusually close rtionship with the Hall Master Ren Ao Tian, which he then dismissed as a joke.


    Never did he imagine that Ren Feifan was telling the truth back then!


    Damn!


    Elder Ren felt somewhat unsettled.


    Ren Feifan couldn’t help but take a deep breath, then said angrily, "How dare he have the nerve to send you to find me, I ought to beat him up, we came all this way to see him, and that little brat dares to go into seclusion."


    Beat him up...


    Little brat...


    Upon hearing these words, Elder Ren and the Supreme Elder couldn’t help but twitch their mouths.


    This person might be the first in the history of the Dragon n to dare scold the Hall Master!


    Under usual circumstances, they would have long executed this youth for insulting the sovereign.


    Yet here, they dared not!


    This was someone the Hall Master of the Dragon n deeply respected.


    Not wanting Ren Feifan to continue his insults, the Supreme Elder quickly apologized, "Mr. Ren, the situation in the Dragon n is ratherplex. Although it appears peaceful and is entirely under the control of the Hall Master, the Overlord Dragon King is always watching like a hawk. If the Hall Master couldn’t break through now, the entire Dragon n would surely be destroyed by the Overlord Dragon King."
