Chapter 223 Heading to the Three Sword Peaks

"Lord (Your Highness)!"

Jiang Shang, Gu Tiefeng, An Lan and others all saluted Lu Fan. Lu Fan nodded slightly and sat down at the main seat.

"Lord, the carriage is ready. When do we set off?"

Looking at Jiang Shang who bowed and asked, Lu Fan shook his head and said, "We don't need so many people to go to Sanjian Peak this time."

"I can take Yuan Rang and Ling Ming with me."

It's just a small Wang Teng, there is no need to mobilize troops.

And after dealing with Wang Teng, he will continue to travel and will not return to Hanyang City at all.

So it's a bit troublesome to bring so many people.

Hearing Lu Fan say this, Jiang Shang nodded and returned to his original position and sat down without continuing to comfort him.

After all, he and Xiahou Dun and Pang De had chatted a lot in the past two days, and he probably knew the cultivation of the two.

With these two people following the lord, the lord will not be in any danger.

Gu Tiefeng originally wanted to persuade Lu Fan to take 3,000 golden fire cavalry, but seeing that Jiang Shang didn't speak, he knew what was interesting and didn't say much.

Now he already knew that Jiang Shang was Lu Fan's top strategist and a rare minister who could govern the country.

Jiang Shang did not continue to persuade him, and his words were a bit overstepping.

Seeing this, An Lan smiled and said, "Your Highness, can Wushuang and I go to watch the battle?"

Lu Fan was not surprised by An Lan's request, and nodded and agreed directly.

After all, An Lan was not his subordinate, and he had no power to control An Lan.

At this time, Xiahou Dun and Pang De walked in from the front hall and knelt on one knee to salute Lu Fan.

"Greetings, my lord!"

Looking at Xiahou Dun and Pang De saluting Lu Fan, An Lan's eyes shrank suddenly, and a trace of horror flashed in her eyes.

"Another two super strong men!"

Although she could not see through the cultivation of the two, she could feel the unspeakable threat and palpitation from them.

Especially Xiahou Dun gave her a more dangerous feeling, as if she was facing the god of death.

Compared to Cao Zhengchun who followed Lu Fan to see her three days ago, Xiahou Dun posed a threat to her many times stronger.

"Where did he get so many strong men? Is there some mysterious and terrifying force behind him?"

Shocked, An Lan subconsciously looked at Lu Fan, secretly guessing in her heart.

If Lu Fan had only one or two strong men under his command, she would not feel too much.

After all, as the prince of Daqian, it is normal for Lu Fan to have one or two strong men to protect him.

But up to now, there are too many strong men under Lu Fan, and each one is stronger than the other.

Although she didn't know much about the Daqian royal family, she was sure that the Daqian royal family definitely didn't have so many strong men.

If the Daqian royal family had so many strong men, they would have solved the ten first-class forces and the eight great families long ago, so how could it be delayed until now.

Others didn't know the ambitions of Emperor Qian, but how could she not know.

Just when An Lan was guessing and wondering in her heart, Lu Fan smiled and asked Xiahou Dun and Pang De to stand up, and then turned to look at Jiang Shang and Gu Tiefeng.

"Ziya, General Gu, after I leave, the northern border will be handed over to you. I hope you won't let me down."

Gu Tiefeng came to visit him yesterday, and he also told him that he would leave Hanyang City for some time.

Gu Tiefeng immediately expressed his attitude to him after knowing the news, saying that he would fully cooperate with Jiang Shang.

Lu Fan was naturally very satisfied with Gu Tiefeng's attitude.

Although he had initially mastered the Zhenbei Army, he was still much worse than Gu Tiefeng.

After all, Gu Tiefeng had been in the Zhenbei Army for 20 to 30 years.

To put it bluntly.

In the eyes of all the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army, Gu Tiefeng's orders were definitely more useful than the tiger talisman representing the military power of the Zhenbei Army.

Lu Fan knew this very well.

So he had always been vigilant against Gu Tiefeng.

Even though Gu Tiefeng had expressed his submission to him before and handed him the tiger talisman.

But after Gu Tiefeng expressed his attitude to him again yesterday, he had more trust in Gu Tiefeng.

Of course, it was just a little more.

As for the reason why Gu Tiefeng acted like this, Lu Fan knew without guessing that it must be related to the great victory at Beimang Pass.

After all, the Zhenbei Army had been guarding the northern border for hundreds of years, and there had never been such a great victory.

For military men, a great victory was enough to prove everything.

So when Gu Tiefeng showed his close attitude to him for the second time, he did not look down on him or feel uncomfortable, but felt that this guy was a promising talent.

Between a fool and a smart person, even a fool knows how to choose.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will fully cooperate with Jiang Junwei!" Gu Tiefeng stood up and clasped his fists to show his attitude, and Jiang Shang also stood up to show his attitude.

Lu Fan was very satisfied with Gu Tiefeng's attitude, and nodded with a smile.

After arranging and explaining these, Lu Fan did not want to waste time any more, so he stood up and walked outside.

Seeing this, everyone in the front hall stood up and came to the outside of the county governor's mansion with Lu Fan.

At this moment, there were two carriages and several horses parked outside the county governor's mansion.

Lu Fan glanced at everyone and boarded the first carriage. Lu Wushuang and An Lan followed him.

Xiahou Dun and Pang De got on their horses instead of riding in the carriage.

Wu Wei and the white-haired old woman who followed An Lan also gave up riding in the carriage and chose to ride horses.

"Farewell, Your Highness!"

Under the gaze of Jiang Shang, Gu Tiefeng and others, a carriage and four horses rushed towards the city gate.

The common people and monks gathered not far away followed behind and whispered to each other.

"His Royal Highness actually wants to go to Sanjian Peak to fight. Is he not afraid of death?"

"His Royal Highness is confused. Wang Teng is the first genius in the Northern Territory. He was at the peak of the ninth level of the Condensation Realm a few years ago. Now he has already entered the Spiritual Sea Realm. If His Royal Highness goes there, he will only die. Why bother?"

"Yes, it is not a wise choice to lose your life for some false reputation."

More and more common people and monks followed behind the carriage, and they were all discussing Lu Fan's acceptance of Wang Teng's life-and-death challenge.

In the eyes of most common people and monks, it was very stupid for Lu Fan to agree to the challenge.

After all, Lu Fan was the prince of Daqian, and his status was honorable and luxurious. Why should he send himself to the life-and-death stage for a dispute of will?

They all felt that Lu Fan was forced to agree to the challenge.

After all, Wang Teng released the news that he wanted to challenge Lu Fan, and this news spread to most of Daqian, and everyone in the Northern Territory knew it.

If Lu Fan didn't accept the challenge, he would definitely be ridiculed.

So the common people and cultivators all thought that Lu Fan was afraid of being ridiculed, so he was forced to accept the challenge.

However, Lu Fan's behavior of accepting the challenge was very unwise for the common people and cultivators.

Although it was a bit embarrassing not to accept the challenge, it was much better than losing his life.

As for the result that Lu Fan could defeat and kill Wang Teng, they had never thought about it at all.

After all, the gap between the two was too big...
