Yun Xiao and Dao Tianwang were left speechless.
Especially Yun Xiao. After this competition, he felt Lin Fan wasn’t what he expected him to be.
If he were in Lin Fan’s shoes, it was unlikely for him to be this generous. ~How many pills did he just give out?~
~It must have been a lot. I’m not even able to produce so much even if I ransack my Yun Xiao peak.~
~But not only the other party was able to give out so many pills without any hesitation, but he’s also doing it willingly. How selfless must he be?~
Seeing Lin Fan give out those pills without hesitation, Mu Ling started to admire him even more.
Wang Fu was the same. He was impressed by how Lin Fan gave out his pills. He even put himself in Senior brother Lin’s shoes. ~Would I be this generous if I were him?~
This made Wang Fu ponder. ~I’d need to seriously debate on it for a long time.~
The invincible peak.
“Disciple.” Tian Xu stood at his spot, looking at him seriously. “Are you really prepared? Master will definitely try his best to help you if you are sure.”
“Master, you mean?” Lin Fan raised a brow. He didn’t understand his master’s words. But he soon realized that his master looked very serious, and he seemed to be talking about something important.
“The Patriarch’s position.” Tian Xu said.
Patriarch?
Lin Fan went into deep thought. He had never thought of fighting to be the next Patriarch. All he wanted was to be the strongest in the world and make the Magnificent Flame Sect great again.
After some time.
Lin Fan realized the resemblance between the sect and a country in his past life.
After undergoing many hardships and achieving much success, there were still many hurdles in life waiting for him.
Lin Fan wanted the most to become the strongest in the world and make the Magnificent Flame Sect great again. And also to let his boastful master lead a good life.
~I would have too much responsibility as the sect leader.~
“Master, if I said I’m not interested, would you be disappointed?” Lin Fan looked at Tian Xu. “Well, as you know, it’s difficult to be Patriarch due to the huge responsibilities.”
Tian Xu looked at Lin Fan seriously. The next second, he burst into laughter.
“You’re indeed my disciple. Haha, my dearest disciple. What’s good about being a Patriarch? If that wasn’t exactly my thoughts back then, why would I not be the Patriarch?”
Cough!
Suddenly, a cough could be heard from afar. It was as if the Patriarch heard him.
“Master, your expression scared me.” Lin Fan laughed.
“Disciple, master plans to leave the sect to travel after the sect becomes stronger. I don’t want to stay in the sect forever. But if you wanted to become the Patriarch, I wouldn’t leave and would have stayed to guard the sect for you.” Tian Xu patted Lin Fan’s shoulder.
“But since you’re not interested in the position, come with master to travel the world. This is my dream, after all.”
“Master, be at ease. Disciple will bring you on a trip one day. The world is huge, and disciple doesn’t want to stay here forever either.” Lin Fan laughed.
“Haha.” Tian Xu laughed loudly and shook his head. “However, master thinks that you’re suitable for the position. Take your time to think about it. As long as you’re willing, Master would give you all his support.”
“Alright, I will get going now. This was an interesting competition. It let me see a different side of the sect. I hope this will continue in the future.” Tian Xu said happily.
Lin Fan put out his hands. “Master, since you didn’t give the pills as rewards, return them to me.”
But as soon as he finished his words.
Tian Xu disappeared instantly, vanishing without a trace.
“Disciple, what did you say? Master is old. I have bad hearing. I couldn’t hear you clearly.”
Lin Fan rolled his eyes and said nothing else.
After the competition, everything finally calmed down. Lin Fan had some points now. He wasn’t planning to use the lottery until he broke through to the Heaven Star Border.
~Maybe a new lottery will be unlocked.~
~I must avoid the Sunshine sect this time.~
~ It’s too dangerous now. I should be blacklisted. Moreover, I might come across that insane guy.~
~His sword intent was horrifying. He was able to cut the world in half.~
~From his words, I know that he has once fought my master. This meant that he’s of the same cultivation as my master.~
~Luckily, he’s mad. Which allowed me to escape.~
The next day!
Bang bang!
Lin Fan heard the alarm immediately after he ended his cultivation. It showed that someone came to the sect. He pushed the door of the inner chamber open immediately.
A vast spiritual ark could be seen floating in the air and descending slowly.
The spiritual ark didn’t belong to the Sunshine Sect nor the Saint Convent sect. It was a spiritual ark that they had never seen before. The spiritual ark is brown in color, and incredible energy covered it.
Lin Fan didn’t know what it was, but he flew to the sect’s entrance to check it out.
The entrance of the sect.
Just when Lin Fan reached the place, the Patriarch and the elders had all gathered.
“Master, what is it?” Lin Fan asked curiously. This is the first time he had witnessed a situation that brought everyone, even the Patriarch out.”
“Disciple, this is the Titan sect. Our sect’s closest ally.” Tian Xu said. “Back when Emperor Yanhua overthrew the previous regime and saved the Magnificent Flame Sect. The Titan Sect was the one that gave him a helping hand when he most needed it. They helped resolve many of the Magnificent Flame Sect’s crises back then. Since then, we were on good terms with the Titan sect, and they have been our most steadfast partner since.”
Hearing this, Lin Fan was slightly confused. He hadn’t seen the sect’s recording or history, and he gained his knowledge slowly through personal experiences.
At the same time, many disciples were confused. Nobody was coming down from the ark.
Piak!
Suddenly, a hand could be seen grabbing onto the side of the ark. Blood could be seen trickling down the ark, making everyone turn pale.
Seeing this, Huo Rong immediately flew up to the ark. He held a man in his arms when he reappeared again.
“Gu Mu, it’s now up to you. This is a serious injury.” Huo Rong said.
Gu Mu raised his hands, and a ray of green light fused into the other party’s body.
“Such strong vital energy.” Lin Fan could feel the life force in the light. Lin Fan glanced at Gu Mu; he didn’t expect Elder Gu Mu to be this powerful.
Cough!
The motionless man started to cough. Every time he did, he coughed out black-colored blood. He seemed to get better after each cough.
“Elder Ba Sai, what happened?” Huo Rong asked. He felt something wrong, so he lifted up Ba Sai’s shirt. A scary footprint could be seen imprinted on his chest, making his chest concave. It was a terrifying sight.”
It’s a miracle that elder Ba Sai could survive until now.
“The Elephant god sect made use of the blocking world formation to isolate my sect and invade us. Please help us, Magnificent Flame Sect.” Ba Sai said urgently. He was so agitated that he coughed blood every time he spoke.
“The Blocking world formation isn’t something the Elephant god sect can activate. It seems like there’s another sect behind this.” Tian Xu frowned.
“Elder Ba Sai, be at ease. Our sect will definitely lend you a helping hand.” The Patriarch said seriously.
“Master, don’t you need to think about this?” Lin Fan whispered, pulling Tian Xu’s shirt.
“Disciple, the Titan Sect is situated Northeast of our sect. We can leave them that territory without worry. But if the Titan Sect is wiped out, our sect will be in danger. Ten years ago, when the Elephant God Sect invaded our borders, we managed to secure our territories. But if the Titan sect is destroyed, it will make things worse for us.”
“It seems like the Saint Convent Sect is behind this.”
“Patriarch, I feel like we shouldn’t wait any longer. The Blocking world formation can isolate the Titan Sect from the world. It might be the reason why we are unaware of it until now.” Tian Xu said after some thought.
“Yes, let Huo Rong lead the disciples over.” Patriarch nodded.
“Mhmm. This is the only thing we can do. Not all of us can leave the sect in case of an enemy invasion. It would be best to let Huo Rong lead a group of elders and disciples over.” Tian Xu said.
The elite elders should not leave the sect if possible or bring about a dire consequence when enemies invade the sect.
Especially Tian Xu. He was the strongest cultivator in the Magnificent Flame Sect. It would be dangerous if he left.
They still had to deal with the Divine Religion too. Their guardians were powerful. They might take the chance to attack the sect knowing that the elders are away.
“That’s what we can do for now. I’ll lead some disciples and Heaven Star Border realm elders over. We should be fine then.” Huo Rong said.
“Take this.” Just then, Tian Xu raised his hand. A ray of light landed in Huo Rong’s hand.
He was elated to see the treasure. “Great. This is great. We will be able to break the formation with this.”
“Master, I want to go too.” Hearing this, Lin Fan was dying to join the trip. ~My points are waiting for me!~
~ It’s fun killing beasts, but it’s even better to kill humans.~
After a short pause, Tian Xu nodded. “Alright. But remember to not wander deep into the place and stay close to Huo Rong at all times.”
“Be at ease, master.” Lin Fan smiled. “I will stay close to elder Huo Rong.”
More than a hundred rays of light flew over from the sect in no time. About twenty were Heaven Star Border elders, and the rest were first-class inner disciples of Earth star border stage eight and nine.
“Let’s go.”
With that, Huo Rong ripped space apart and led the group towards the Titan sect.
“Huo Rong, you can be injured, but not my disciple. Protect him well.” Tian Xu sent Huo Rong a voice message
Hearing this, Huo Rong looked up out of the space with a slight grievance.
