Bing Fu looked at me with a strange look before suddenly saying, "Alright, I agree to this."
He didn't know what was happening, but it seemed like it was going in his favour.
After all, he could tell that Feng Ling's level of cultivation wasn't as high as his. She was only in the Star Realm while he had already reached the Peak Sun Realm. If they were to fight, there was no doubt that he would crush her.
While he was confused why Lin Fan would allow such a thing to happen, he didn't care as long as he was able to achieve his goal.
But before they fought, he had to set his terms.
"If I win, I want Feng Ling and Feng Yu to come back to our Blue Phoenix Tribe." Bing Fu said before anyone else could say anything.
Lin Fan just gave a simple nod in response to this as if he had already expected this before saying, "If you lose, you will no longer be allowed to contact either Feng Ling or Feng Yu."
Bing Fu slightly knitted his brows when he heard this.
He didn't think that he would lose if he fought Feng Ling, but there was something in Lin Fan's voice that made it seem like he was already certain of his victory. It was as if all of this was already a foregone conclusion, like it was just a formality.
He didn't understand why Lin Fan had this kind of confidence, but it made him wary.
Still, he knew that this was the only way that this would be settled, so he agreed to these terms with a nod.
Seeing this, Lin Fan gave a nod as well before turning to Xiao Huo and saying, "Xiao Huo, come and play with him for a bit."
When Bing Fu heard this, he said, "This isn't what we agreed on."
Lin Fan looked at him and said, "When did I say that you would be fighting Feng Ling? Aren't you ashamed of even thinking of something like this when you can clearly sense the difference in cultivation levels? Is this the kind of man that you are?"
There was a vein that popped out on Bing Fu's forehead when he heard this, but he forced his anger down by gritting his teeth.
After taking a deep breath to calm down, he said through those same gritted teeth, "This is a matter between me and Feng Ling, ex husband and wife. This is not a matter that others can easily interfere in."
Lin Fan revealed a faint smile as he said, "That's fine because Xiao Huo isn't an outsider in the first place."
Bing Fu knitted his brows a bit when he heard this before he said, "How isn't he an outsider?" With a snort, Bing Fu said, "Are you going to tell me that he's my ex wife's lover?"
When Feng Ling heard this, she couldn't help revealing a disgusted look as she looked at Bing Fu.
She had always hated his anger issues and the way that he lost control with his words.
But he was the one that her father had set her up with in the end, so even if she was disgusted by him, she did what she had to do. She had endured sleeping with him even though the very thought of him touching her filled her with waves of disgust.
The only good thing that came out of that relationship in the end in her mind were her two children.
Lin Fan's lips also twitched for a second and his eyes filled with a bit of disdain as he looked at Bing Fu, but then he said, "He's not Feng Ling's lover, but he's Feng Yu's fiance. So if you look at it from that perspective, he is related to this matter."
When his voice fell, Bing Fu immediately revealed a shocked look as he said, "What did you say?"
He turned to look at Feng Yu who was hugging Xiao Huo and his eyes filled with even more rage and hatred as he glared at Xiao Huo.
Even if he hadn't been around for most of her life, he still thought of himself as Feng Yu's father. So when he heard that his precious daughter was engaged and it was to someone like Xiao Huo…he couldn't help exploding with rage.
Especially when he saw the difference in stature between the two of them.
The way that they looked…it was like looking at a crime.
So as someone who thought of himself as a father, how could he allow something like this to happen?
Bing Fu's rage filled him and he couldn't help giving two laughs before saying, "Good, good, good! Very good! Alright, I accept your terms!"
His rage had completely filled him and he couldn't take it anymore.
If he didn't take this chance to beat the one that was being called Feng Yu's fiance, where would his face as a father go?
So it was decided that Bing Fu would fight Xiao Huo.
Xiao Huo wasn't as excited to fight as Bing Fu was, but that changed after Lin Fan whispered a few things to Xiao Huo.
Xiao Huo might have been a child, but there were still things that he could understand. After hearing certain things from Lin Fan, the way that Xiao Huo looked at Bing Fu changed.
There was what seemed to be a trace of anger in his eyes.
As he looked at him like this, Bing Fu couldn't help feeling a bit of pressure falling onto him.
He didn't understand why he was feeling pressure from what he considered his junior.
The elders had been silent the whole time, but it was clear by the look on their face that they didn't approve of this. They didn't want to see Xiao Huo get injured, let alone fight.
But since it was something that Lin Fan had decided, it wasn't as if they could say anything about it.
So they just watched with all of their focus, getting ready to interfere if anything happened.
Of course, this wasn't the place for them to fight since it was too small for a fight here. So they all stood up and followed Bing Fu to another place.
This was a room that was very spacious and there was an arena right in the center.
It was clear that this was the training room of the Blue Phoenix Tribe which made it perfect for the fight that was about to happen.
All of the spectators moved to the spectator seats while Bing Fu and Xiao Huo made their way to the stage. But before the fight happened, Feng Yu came forward and in a daring display, she stood up on her toes to plant a good luck kiss on Xiao Huo's cheek.
Both Xiao Huo and Bing Fu who were in the arena were caught off guard by this sudden action by Feng Yu.
After planting the kiss on Xiao Huo's cheek, Feng Yu ran off with a shy look on her face. However, there was no denying the wide smile that was also on her face.
She was clearly happy with herself for having the courage to do this.
When the shock passed and everyone came back to their senses, they reacted in different ways.
Bing Fu completely exploded and he looked like he wanted to rip Xiao Huo to pieces.
Xiao Huo…had a surprising blush on his face.
Even though he still had the mentality of a child, he understood what the concept of a kiss meant.
So he just stood there with a dazed look on his face.
Bing Fu couldn't wait any longer, so he said, "Let's begin."
Then without even giving Xiao Huo a chance to react, Bing Fu suddenly charged forward. There were blue flames that appeared around his hand as he jumped forward at Xiao Huo.
These blue flames didn't give off heat, but rather drew in all the heat around it.
These were the special blue flames of the Blue Phoenix Tribe that were based on ice laws.
So anything that these blue flames covered, they would freeze instead of burn.
But Xiao Huo was still in a daze from being kissed by Feng Yu, so he didn't react right away.
It was only when Bing Fu was too close that he couldn't dodge anymore that he finally reacted.
Seeing the blue flames that were closing in on him, Xiao Huo didn't hesitate at all as he was suddenly surrounded in red flames.
When the blue and red flames clashed, there was a wave of life energy that was released from the collision. This was a powerful wave of life energy that would have pushed those at the same cultivation level as the two of them back, but the two of them were able to maintain this equilibrium between them.
That is until there was a strained look that appeared on Bing Fu's face and he was forced to take a step back.
Then all of a sudden, the balance between the two of them crumbled and Bing Fu was sent flying back. He was able to stop himself before he was thrown out of the arena, but the way that he held his chest made it clear that his injuries weren't light.
His eyes were filled with disbelief and shock as he looked at Xiao Huo, trying to understand what had just happened.
But Xiao Huo didn't give Bing Fu that time to think.
Xiao Huo was already charging at Bing Fu covered in red flames.
