“The Heaven’s Pride Invite? What’s that?”
Many people did not know much about this invitation card, because the Heaven’s Pride Invite was something that was only passed down to certain circles.
“Those are the invites for the current generation of geniuses, but there are no specific requirements for who it is. Whoever has a card will be able to get in.”
“What if the holder loses it?”
“If they can’t hold on to their invitation, then they aren’t worthy.”
Many people finally understood why these fierce-looking foreign martial artists dared to be so impudent here during the Heavenly Dragon Elder’s birthday. Turns out that the Heavenly Dragon Villa had secretly allowed such a thing to happen.
This was obviously done to maintain the value of the Heaven’s Pride Invites. Although the Heavenly Dragon Villa could gather a lot of information, something would always fall through the cracks. With this method, the value of the people selected would naturally be guaranteed.
“No wonder they’re so desperate. As long as they obtain this invitation card, they can receive guidance from the Heavenly Dragon Elder. The elder is a powerhouse in the Divine Abilities Stage. Those who receive his guidance can break through by at least one realm. This can save one a lot of time.”
Many passers-by were envious. They were able to attend the birthday celebration because they had some connections with the Heavenly Dragon Villa. However, they were only passers-by. It was impossible for them to actually meet the elder not to mention receive his guidance.
While everyone was discussing this matter, a black-clothed young man carrying a large sword on his back strode onto the scene.
“I’m finally here.” Chu Yunfan gazed at the Heavenly Dragon Mountain Range, which was not very tall, but it was extremely majestic.
The interior of the entire mountain range had long been hollowed out. There was a huge space within that had been transformed into a huge base. This was the core of the Heavenly Dragon Villa.
The city that spanned across the mountain range was extremely vast. Chu Yunfan could see the faint outlines of an array formation around the entire mountain range.
This formation encompassed the entire Heavenly Dragon Mountain Range. Such a large amount of spending was indeed astonishing. It made Chu Yunfan involuntarily recall the origins of the Heavenly Dragon Villa. Like many top organizations, more than a hundred years ago, the Heavenly Dragon Villa was just an ordinary organization. Later on, they accidentally stumbled upon the Heavenly Dragon Mountain where they obtained the inheritance of an ancient sect.
From then on, the Heavenly Dragon Villa had been unstoppable. It did not take long for them to establish themselves, and their strength began to grow.
During this process, they encountered many situations where the organization was almost destroyed. However, these attempts were later blocked by the array formation the Heavenly Dragon Villa had set up. This formation had afforded the Heavenly Dragon Villa and the Heavenly Dragon Elder precious time.
There were many guesses about this array formation, and there were many versions of the rumors. However, it was recorded in Federation University’s encyclopedia that this formation was from the Heavenly Dragon Mountain itself. It was left behind by the ancient civilization that once occupied the mountain.
Of course, this level of confidential information was not something that ordinary students could see for free. They had to exchange Federation University’s points for this information.
Chu Yunfan had found out all this about the Heavenly Dragon Villa when he was investigating. This was the benefit of having a top-tier colossus backing him up.
If Chu Yunfan did not have any connections, it would be impossible for him to know the origins of the Heavenly Dragon Villa.
However, before Chu Yunfan could make his way up the mountain, a group of tall martial artists stopped him.
“Are you Chu Yunfan?” the leading martial artist asked as he stared at Chu Yunfan.
Chu Yunfan knew that this person was someone of note. Since he had rushed to the foot of the Heavenly Dragon Villa and dared to act impudently without fear of being attacked by the Heavenly Dragon Villa, there was only one possibility. He must be coveting the Heaven’s Pride Invitation.
These people were really good at scheming. They knew that no matter where Chu Yunfan hid, he would definitely come to the banquet. As long as they intercepted Chu Yunfan at the last moment, they would be able to get the invite all the same.
“I am,” Chu Yunfan said. “And where do you come from? Tell me your names.”
“You don’t have to know our names. Hehe, someone in the black market offered a beautiful price for that Heaven’s Pride Invite of yours. If you hand it over, we won’t make things difficult for you. Otherwise, you won’t leave here unscathed today.”
The leader grinned hideously. His body emitted a fierce aura. It was evident that he was not easy to deal with. He was clearly a murderer who had the blood of many on his hands.
“Looks like this invitation is really valuable.” Chu Yunfan sneered. “A person who hides his head and shows his tail. Don’t they even have the courage to fight me face to face?”
“Shut up, Chu Yunfan. Hurry up and hand over the invitation. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude. If you lose an arm or a leg, don’t say I didn’t warn you!” the leader boomed.
“In that case, I shall help the Heavenly Dragon Elder to clean up some pests. You black market pests should stick to the shadows. You actually dare to appear out in broad daylight? You must be tired of living.” Chu Yunfan sneered.
There were indeed many experts in the black market who would do anything to obtain a high reward. However, these outlaws were wanted by the Federation, which was why they had dared to venture out into a neutral region like Heavenly Dragon Villa. If they dared to appear this brazenly in a Federation city, they would be courting death. Local enforcements would certainly come to encircle and suppress them shortly.
The black market experts were instantly enraged when they heard this. They could see Chu Yunfan’s contemptuous attitude toward them.
“Get him!” The leader roared. He instantly released the aura of an Innate expert. A bloody aura that had been nurtured through the slaughter of countless people was released. One could even smell the faint scent of blood.
Stab!
However, before the leader could barely finish his words, a sword light swept past and entered his throat.
A blood flower bloomed. The leader’s eyes were still wide open. He never thought that Chu Yunfan would make a move just because of a disagreement. On top of that, he was an Innate expert. With his strength, he could be considered one of the stronger people in the Federation.
Yet, the leader was unable to block Chu Yunfan’s attack.
How was this possible?!
The death of their leader did not frighten the other black market experts. On the contrary, it provoked their anger, and they all pounced on Chu Yunfan.
However, how could these Acquired Stage experts defeat Chu Yunfan? Before the passersby could react, they saw a dazzling wave of sword moves, and the heads of the black market experts were separated from their bodies.
