After Ding Fan explained everything, a sharp light flashed in his eyes as he led Zhuge Qing, Xue Wu, and the others down the mountain.
The long-bearded Elder watched Ding Fan and the others leave, and an uncertain light flickered in his eyes.
Zhuge Qing, Ding Fan, and the others arrived at the foot of the mountain. A sharp look flashed in their eyes, and Zhuge Qing's lips trembled slightly as he spoke:
"Brother Ding, why didn't you let the Second Elder come with us? He just joined us; I fear..."
Upon hearing Zhuge Qing's words, Ding Fan immediately responded:
"No need to worry, Brother Zhuge. I have my reasons for doing so. Whether the Second Elder is sincere or not, you need not fret!"
Hearing Ding Fan's words, Zhuge Qing's eyes flickered slightly. After pondering briefly, he nodded slowly toward Ding Fan.
Seeing Zhuge Qing's reaction, Ding Fan said calmly:
"Are you aware of the whereabouts of the Third Elder?"
