Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

Song Bufan's talent is merely outstanding, far from being considered a prodigy.

Among those from the same period, let alone the Ninth Prince Su Xinyan and the Sixth Princess, these three were the strongest.

Meng Ping'e and Zheng Guan, who are second only to them, as well as Wu Wendong and Xiao Hanxing, are all much more outstanding than Song Bufan.

At this moment, he was only able to fight against the second-to-last Purple Mansion Realm expert with the strength of the mid-stage Purple Mansion Realm expert because he relied on the powerful cultivation techniques and martial arts skills he had practiced and the better weapons he used.

But he could only manage to fight the second brother to a standstill; winning or even killing him was simply out of the question.

Sweating profusely, Song Bufan cautiously faced the challenge, but was suddenly distracted when he heard his beloved's cry for help.

"Qingqiu, wait a moment, I'll be right there."

"How dare you be distracted at a time like this!" The second brother's voice was hoarse, and his face was sinister.

He took advantage of Song Bufan's distraction and successfully launched a sneak attack.

Unfortunately, Song Bufan was wearing an inner armor with amazing defensive capabilities, which helped him withstand most of the damage.

The second brother's eyes lit up. "I didn't expect it to be such a big fish!!"

Powerful inner armor is rarer and more expensive than weapons.

He clearly understood that his sword strike just now had the power to kill most mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivators.

Song Bufan's inner armor easily blocked the attack, as if nothing had happened, which meant that his inner armor was very valuable. This must be a big fish!

Lu Qingqiu was in even worse shape, being beaten back by the third brother and on the verge of collapse.

"Song Bufan! You said before that no matter who hurts me, you would protect me with your life! Come and save me!"

Lu Qingqiu's tone carried a hint of resentment. She didn't care how difficult things were for Song Bufan at the moment; she only knew that she needed him to save her life, and he hadn't come.

In her heart, Lü Qingqiu was already cursing Song Bufan, calling him a useless piece of trash.

Hearing Lü Qingqiu's reproachful plea for help, Song Bufan felt both helpless and aggrieved.

I'm in danger right now, how can I protect her? Won't she even consider my feelings?

"Still distracted! You're asking for it!"

The second brother's attacks became increasingly fierce, each move deadly. If it weren't for the inner armor protecting him, Song Bufan wouldn't have survived even with several lives.

His clothes were relatively ordinary, but they had been beaten to shreds, with only a few strips of cloth hanging on his body. He looked extremely disheveled, like a beggar.

Although the inner armor blocked most of the damage for him, he still had to bear some of it himself, and he was already injured at this moment.

"what!!"

Lu Qingqiu was struck by the third brother's palm, screamed in pain, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Song Bufan felt heartbroken. He gritted his teeth, took out two talismans, and immediately activated one talisman, which transformed into thousands of sword blades to block the second brother. The other talisman flew to Lü Qingqiu's side and was handed to her.

"Qingqiu, this is a teleportation talisman, you go first!!"

When Lü Qingqiu saw Song Bufan take out a precious teleportation talisman, she not only didn't thank him after taking it, but instead looked resentful.

"If you had such a way to escape, why didn't you use it sooner! You only used it after I was injured. I really don't know what to say to you!"

Lu Qingqiu grumbled as he activated the talisman, his figure vanishing instantly without a moment's pause.

She didn't even ask what would happen to Song Bufan if she left.

Song Bufan stood there, dumbfounded.

The reason he didn't bring it out at first was that he wanted Lü Qingqiu to hold on for a while while he figured out a way to kill the second brother and then help her.

That way they could take down the three bandits of Qingshan and finally get to hold their heads high at home.

Unexpectedly, Lü Qingqiu was so incompetent that she was no match for the third brother.

Lu Qingqiu's attitude just now made Song Bufan realize that the person he had been pursuing for so long might not care about him at all.

To test this idea, Song Bufan, who still harbored a sliver of affection for Lü Qingqiu, took out the teleportation talisman.

He wanted to see if Lü Qingqiu truly cared for him.

The results are obvious.

Even a second before she fled, Lü Qingqiu was still blaming him, showing no gratitude or concern whatsoever.

"Hahaha! It turns out it was all just wishful thinking on my part all along!"

"I'm so ridiculous!!"

Although Song Bufan was smiling, his smile was somewhat tragic and eerie.

He was too mediocre among the many sons of King Zhenwu, so his family gave him little care and love from childhood. He longed to be noticed and loved.

When Lü Qingqiu first arrived at the Great Qi Academy, in order to gain a foothold, she showed him strong care and affection after learning his identity, which made him fall deeply in love and unable to extricate himself.

I only realized it now.

The second and third of the three bandits from Qingshan exchanged a glance.

"I didn't expect this kid to have a teleportation talisman like that! Kill him quickly, we can't let him escape too!!"

The two men attacked with intense killing intent, especially the third brother, who was particularly ruthless because he was furious that the girl he had his eye on had been given away by Song Bufan.

Song Bufan could barely manage one-on-one, let alone two.

However, he wasn't planning to hit it; instead, he threw out a black sphere.

"boom!!"

The black sphere exploded, sending thick smoke billowing out. This not only obscured vision but also blocked divine sense detection. Being inside the smoke was like being blind.

Song Bufan used the Zhenwu King's Palace's treasured escape technique to flee far away.

Teleportation talismans are extremely rare and precious; he only had one. Fortunately, he still had some other ways to escape.

By the time the second and third brothers rushed out of the smoke, Song Bufan was completely out of sight.

"Damn it! They got away!!"

"It's good that he ran away. With a teleportation talisman and such a powerful escape technique, this kid's identity must be extraordinary."

They might kill rogue cultivators or cultivators from ordinary forces, but if they accidentally killed someone of high status, they would be afraid.

At this moment, Meng Ping'e completely suppressed the leader of the three bandits of Qingshan, and it wouldn't be long before he could kill him.

Hearing the explosion, he turned around and saw that only the second and third brothers were there; Song Bufan and Lü Qingqiu were gone.

Where are my teammates??

Meng Ping'e was furious at this moment.

"Damn it! Song Bufan, that bastard, is not only a piece of trash, but also a coward, a treacherous villain!!"

"They agreed to stand together through thick and thin before the alliance was formed, and now they're just leaving like that!!"

Meng Ping'e was hoping that Song Bufan would use his trump card to help him kill the second and third brothers, but he actually ran away.

He did have some trump cards, but they were all for self-preservation and escape.

Meng Ping'e was filled with regret. He should have known that it would have been much better to just find two rogue cultivators at the late stage of the Purple Mansion Realm than to find Song Bufan and Lü Qingqiu.

I have a great advantage in one-on-one situations, but I struggle in one-on-three situations.

With Lü Qingqiu and Song Bufan fleeing one after another, the second and third of the three bandits from Qingshan had no choice but to turn back and join their eldest brother in dealing with Meng Ping'e.

They can't have run away too, can they?!
