Jun Wutian did not leave, and the disciples around him dared not move or make a sound.
Feng Shaoyun and Liu Yue stood at the back, frozen to the spot.
They would never have believed that Lin Fan dared to humiliate Jun Wutian in public if they had not witnessed the scene.
A bone-chilling aura filled the area, making everyone shiver. They could deeply feel how powerful Jun Wutian was.
“Trash!” Jun Wutian gritted his teeth, blood vessels in his eyes bursting. He made a vow in his heart that he would remember today’s incident and take revenge by killing Lin Fan. With that, he shot up high and disappeared into thin air.
His aura dispersed within no time.
The crowd heaved a sigh of relief, and whispering could be heard.
“He humiliated Senior Brother Jun in public, let’s see what his consequence will be!” Feng Shaoyun sneered.
“Who does he think he is? How dare he offend Senior Brother Jun? I’m waiting to see how pathetic he will be in the future. Will he drop down to his knees? Elder Tian Xu can cover him for now, but not forever!”
“Senior Brother Jun will be the sect leader eventually. We shall see then.”
…
At the same time. Lin Fan had already returned to his room. He could feel his heart racing violently on his way back home.
I’m acting cool with my life! Now that I have started this, there’s no turning back.
Ah, this feels pleasurable! I’m so happy that I feel like I’m flying! Even my little elephant raised its head, trumpeting.
But I’m well aware that Jun Wutian dares not do anything to me only because I’m Elder Tian Xu’s disciple. Elder Tian Xu can protect me now, but not forever. This is enough, though. As long as I have the time, I will be able to grow so that I can be strong on my own and act as I wish. It won’t take long either.
“Jun Wuwu, Jun Wutian?” Lin Fan mumbled. He was sure that he had made a mistake. Right before the grandpa died, he must have been in such pain that he was unable to say the last word and ended up repeating the second character!
Yes, that must be the case! Let me roleplay it now. If I am about to die and I wish to name the murderer, won’t I only say half of it and leave out the last character?
“Jun… Jun… Wu… Tian.” Lin Fan stretched out his hands, stammering and pretending to fall dead. “I’m right. This is it.
“Who are the grandpas, though? Why did Jun Wutian kill them? This is weird. It’s such a pity that I can’t put the three sovereign swords to use now.
“Eh? Why does it seem that my room is different from how I left it? It’s not my style to keep my room this clean!” Lin Fan took a look around his room that was in a neat state right now. He was puzzled by the state. Who would come along to tidy my room for me?
“Junior Brother Lin…”
His senior brother’s voice cut his train of thought. Lin Fan pushed the door open immediately. “Senior Brothers, news sure is fast. I only just returned and you already heard of it!”
“Junior Brother, you were gone for such a long time. Did you come across any troubles?”
Zhang Long and the others were looking at Lin Fan anxiously too. Their Junior Brother Lin went on such a long trip and there was no news to be heard, thus all of them were worried for Lin Fan. They were only able to be at ease when they heard that Lin Fan had returned.
“Yes, a lot,” Lin Fan said, putting on an exaggerated expression. “I just embarrassed Jun Wutian in front of a crowd at the entrance. If not for him, I would have been back earlier.”
When Lu Qiming and the rest registered Lin Fan’s words, they were stupefied. All of them stared at Lin Fan with jaws wide open. “Junior Brother, what did you say? Jun Wutian? The Jun Wutian from Heavenly Retribution Peak?”
“Yes. I’m now Elder Tian Xu’s direct disciple. Jun Wutian can only blame himself for being embarrassed by me. He is the one that wanted to kill me first. Let’s not talk about this anymore. I have brought goods back for Senior Brothers from this trip.” Lin Fan smiled and pulled out a pile of items from the storage ring.
A pile of Mortal pills was placed on the tabletop. They weren’t much use to Lin Fan, but they would be a big help for his senior brothers.
Among these, the six Gold Essence Pills were the most valuable.
“Junior Brother, what do you mean?” Zhang Long’s face fell.
“Nothing much. It’s just a gift for my senior brothers,” Lin Fan said.
Lu Qiming took a pill and had a closer look. “A Mortal high-class pill! Beast Blood Pill!” Lu Qiming shrieked. “It can increase your qi and blood and give you the power of a beast. This is one of the best pills among all Mortal high-class pills! This gift is too expensive, Junior Brother. Take it yourself or sell it. It’s such a waste to give it to us.”
Yin Xiaotian and the rest might’ve craved the pills, but they were aware that Lin Fan must have gone through a lot to get them.
“What do you guys mean?” Lin Fan pretended to be unhappy with Yin Xiaotian and the rest. “Are you looking down on me? If you take me as your family, share these evenly!
“Besides, three days later is the apprentice ceremony for me. By then, I will have as many pills as I need, so these are nothing to me.”
Even though they were friends, the damage they received from Lin Fan’s words was huge.
This was absolutely angering.
Looking at Lin Fan, Lu Qiming’s heart hurt. We are really proud of you, but you can’t treat us like this!
“Okay, since it’s Junior Brother Lin’s good intention, we will take it.”
Lin Fan smiled thinly. “That’s the way. I’m already an Earth Star Border Stage One, Senior Brothers. All of you must work hard or it will be hard for me to take you out in the future!”
“Stop.” Yin Xiaotian stopped Lin Fan immediately. “Junior Brother Lin, we can chat nicely, there’s no need for you to bring us so much damage.”
“Okay, this bottle of pills is the main thing.” Lin Fan opened the bottle and poured out the pills, passing everyone one.
Before Lin Fan could say anything, Zhang Long’s face turned pale. He jumped up immediately. “This is a Gold Essence Pill, a Mystic high-class support pill. It can cleanse your entire body and cure all illnesses. It will also increase the efficiency of cultivation drastically. It might be a Mystic high-class pill, but it’s more valuable than some Earth pills.” Zhang Long waved his hands immediately. “No, this is too much. Junior Brother, you should keep this for yourself.”
Lu Qiming was obviously shocked by the pill, as it was something that disciples like them – no, that even most inner disciples would not have.
It was too precious.
One’s constitution was inborn. Only external factors like pills or skillsets could change it.
But no matter which method, they were all extremely valuable. For example, this pill could turn a skinny man into a bulky one within no time.
These changes were qualitative.
Lin Fan. “Alright, Senior Brothers, take it. I have already taken a pill, and I will give you five out of the six I currently have. Take them now.
“Do not spread this news out either. It’s a burden to keep them with me.”
Hearing this, the group’s hearts sank. They were now aware that Lin Fan did not get the pills in a just and honorable way. What did Junior Brother Lin experience on this trip?
Huang Fugui was so touched that he cried. He never expected that such sincerity could be found in the sect.
How am I supposed to take in the fact that Junior Brother Lin is now giving us such valuable pills?
At last, when all his senior brothers had pills in their hands, they stared at Lin Fan in a different manner.
It was as if they were boring a hole through Lin Fan’s face, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
“Senior Brothers, go back and take them,” Lin Fan said.
When Lu Qiming and the rest left, they patted Lin Fan’s shoulder but did not say anything more, as they knew that words weren’t needed.
