After Ding Fan came out of the Mission Hall, the surrounding discussions never stopped.
Until, when Lianzi and Liu Yan passed by the Mission Hall, they couldn't help but be astonished upon hearing the discussions around.
"What? Ding Fan is back!"
"I just had a feeling that Ding Fan wouldn't be in trouble..."
The two were instantly shocked and started chatting, then decided that they must visit where Ding Fan was when they had time.

"Are you going to Beihou Mountain?"
The elder, dressed quite shabbily, was taken aback upon seeing Ding Fan's appearance. At the time, when Ding Fan was going to Beihou Mountain, he happened to see him, and later discovered the anomaly in Beihou Mountain, assuming Ding Fan was doomed. Yet unexpectedly, he ran into this guy here today.
The elder then asked in shock.
