For Xu Fan, Mu Lao's importance reached an unparalleled level! Even if Mu Lao could not obtain Xu Fan's Divine Sense, he could not allow Xu Fan to continue growing.
In just a month's time, Xu Fan had completed such a magnificent transformation. If Xu Fan were given a few more years, even if Mu Lao and his three companions joined forces, they might not be Xu Fan's match.
Xu Fan must die! This is an unchangeable iron law!
So, even if it's Elder Niu, even if it's some so-called alchemy prodigy, should Mu Lao be determined to take down Xu Fan, he would likely be unstoppable.
However, Mu Lao had his own considerations for allowing Elder Niu to take Xu Fan away.
Within the base, Elder Niu holds a considerable status. If Mu Lao were indeed to offend Elder Niu, it would surely cause a commotion, and if those few hidden figures within the base were alarmed, it would be a loss outweighing the gain for Mu Lao and his companions.
