"Fan must have a lot of stories hidden in his heart," Angie thought quietly as she watched Ye Fan walk away.
Angie chased after him after gathering her thoughts.
"Fan, wait up!!"
By the time Ye Fan and Angie arrived, a lot of martial artists had already gathered there.
However, no one found any spirit energy fruit.
Other than the dense forest, there were high mountains.
Water flowed down from the mountain top leaving behind a thunderous roar as it fell.
"That's odd. Why can't we find anything? Do you think it's somewhere else? Maybe we are looking in the wrong place?” asked someone from the crowd quizzically.
"I don't think so. The natural energy is much denser here, so it's the perfect place for spirit energy fruit trees to grow."
"Hurry up and look! The spirit energy fruit tree must be here."
Despite their efforts, they couldn't find anything.
But no one gave up, and everyone kept searching hard for the tree.
They looked like they were absolutely determined to find what they came for!
Kong Ming, Lv Hua, and Lu Yan-Xi were among these people too.
Perhaps Lv Hua was too engrossed on his search for the spirit energy fruit tree that he accidentally stepped on someone's foot.
‘Tm sorry. I kept checking behind that I didn't realize you were there. I'm so sorry," Lv Hua smiled as he apologized courteously.
"It's fine. I'm okay," replied the man graciously without any expression on his face.
"I'm really sorry..." replied Lv Hua instinctively as he laughed.
However, Lv Hua was stunned midsentence.
Wait a second. Why was this voice so familiar?
Wasn't that...
Lv Hua hastily raised his head to see Ye Fan's lean profile.
"What the hell?! Ye Fan? What are you doing here?”
Lv Hua's expression instantly fell.
He didn't expect to encounter Ye Fan here.
Lv Hua was sure that someone at Ye Fan's level was bound to end up getting devoured by wild animals or slaughtered by others.
But Ye Fan had shockingly made it all the way here on his own.
Some of the people who knew Lv Hua hurried over to talk to him.
"Oh my! Aren't you Mr Lv? I'm, Park Jeong-Chun, from Korea. Mr Lv, we met a few days ago, if you recall. You promised that we would have dinner after our work in South America is done. What happened to you? Why is your face bruised?" asked Park Jeong-Chun quizzically as he looked at Lv Hua's face.
"N-nothing. It was just an accident, so don't worry about it. Jeong-Chun, perfect timing. Let me introduce you to this man. He is a martial artist from China too. His name is Ye Fan, and he was born in the countryside. He isn't much of a fighter, but he was sent here to learn. Instead of taking the chance to expand his horizons, he started lusting after Yan-Xi. He's even chased us all the way here for her sake. Isn't that hilarious?" scoffed Lv Hua.
"Oh, really now?" Park Jeong-Chun laughed as he turned to look at Ye Fan.
"You're Ye Fan? Bro, you should consider whether you are worthy before you attempt to woo any woman. Or else, you will end up a laughingstock. You shouldn't lust after goddesses as beautiful and talented as Miss Yan-Xi. Only men as brilliant as Mr Lv deserve to have her," Park Jeong Chun mocked Ye Fan as he flattered Lv Hua.
"Lv Hua? Is he the one who defeated all the Indians and snatched spirit energy fruit from a mysterious martial artist?"
Lv Hua's name was gaining quite the reputation throughout the martial arts world through Ye Fan's efforts.
Hence, many people approached Lv Hua to befriend him when they found out who he was.
"I heard so much about you, Mr Lv. You defeated the Indian fighters with a single blow at the restaurant and made a name for yourself. Also, you turned the tides and snatched spirit energy fruit from a mysterious man. Now all the Australian martial artists who witnessed it are shocked by your ability."
"I have been dying to meet you in person. It's such an honor to meet you finally.'
"You're too kind, everyone. I was just lucky. It was pure luck."
Lv Hua chuckled smugly from everyone's warm welcome. He genuinely felt his pride and ego inflate immensely.
