The current situation in Shanghai was something the middle-aged man had heard about.
He did not think that Xu Fan could be a match for Situ Jing.
Even if he were to fully absorb the power contained in the Zhu Ling blood, there would still be no hope.
At most, the Zhu Ling blood could only help him reach the peak of the Innate Realm and certainly not break through Innate to peek into the Entering Dao Realm.
You see, Situ Jing had already stepped into the Entering Dao Realm. With Xu Fan's strength, the chances of defeating him were almost zero.
"Don't worry, once you help me retrieve the item, I can put in a good word for you with Situ Jing."
"By then, he should be willing to resolve this conflict with you."
The middle-aged man seemed very confident in his own background as he spoke to Xu Fan.
However, Xu Fan had no intention whatsoever of agreeing.
He shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I have no plans to reconcile with him."
