Chapter 1004: Clues! (1/2)

It was the biggest sect of the Fa Lan Sect. The buildings in Tiantai in the Continent of the Gods were similar. Lin Feng even thought that Tiantai could be considered the same level as the Fa Lan Sect.

Lin Feng was willing to establish Tiantai in the Country of Eternity. That way, Tiantai would be present in the Continent of the Nine Clouds, the Continent of the Gods, and the Country of Eternity. It would be present in a low-level, a medium-level, and a high-level world!

Lin Feng followed Fa Chun into the Fa Lan Sect. People in the Fa Lan Sect respected Fa Chun, so when they arrived, many people watched them respectfully, especially when they heard he was with the legendary young genius Lin Feng. They were also nervous, of course!

The patriarch of the Fa Lan Sect was a Half-Great Supreme God, which was quite good already. His servants, the elders of the sect, were Supreme Gods. In a few hundred years, they would break through to the Great Supreme God layer and then join the Fa Lan Empire.

One of the Fa Lan Sect’s purposes was to raise cultivators for the Fa Lan Empire. Unfortunately, apart from the few princes of the Fa Lan Empire, there had been no real competition in the previous years. Even worse, there was no genius comparable to Lin Feng in the Fa Lan Empire!

Fa Chun brought Lin Feng to the patriarch, and Lin Feng was surprised when he saw that Fa Chun talked to the patriarch of the Fa Lan Sect extremely respectfully. “Fourth uncle, how is the sect doing these days?”

However, Lin Feng wasn’t surprised that the high officials of the sect and the empire were related by blood. It was absolutely normal.

“Everything is fine, Leader,” replied the patriarch, nodding respectfully. Even though Fa Chun spoke to him respectfully, the patriarch also answered him respectfully and politely.

“This is Lin Feng. He has a few questions. Please tell him everything you know,” stated Fa Chun gravely. Everybody looked solemn around them when they saw Fa Chun’s expression.

Fa Chun was the one who managed the Fa Lan Empire, after all. Nobody knew that he was just Lin Feng’s puppet, as they weren’t strong enough to know those things. However, they all knew that Lin Feng had killed Fa Kun Lun!

“Please go ahead and ask anything you want,” agreed the patriarch, smiling at Lin Feng warmly.

Lin Feng didn’t have time to waste, so he was straightforward. “Do you know anything about Yan Ran Xue?” asked Lin Feng, staring at the patriarch.

When the patriarch heard him, he was stupefied. Then he glanced at Fa Chun. Lin Feng should ask the emperor that question, right? Fa Chun probably knew better than him!

Back then, Yan Ran Xue had shown up in the Fa Lan Sect. She was beautiful and talented, but then Fa Chun had taken her away because he wanted her to become an imperial concubine. Why was Lin Feng asking the Fa Lan Sect?

Also, what kind of relationship did Lin Feng and Yan Ran Xue have? The patriarch looked pensive. His expression kept changing, but he replied honestly, “Yan Ran Xue was the most outstanding female disciple of the Fa Lan Sect.”

“Alright, good. So, has she ever come back?” pressed Lin Feng, frowning grimly.

The patriarch looked at Fa Chun as if he expected some help from him, but Fa Chun just smiled helplessly and shook his head; the patriarch had to reply honestly.

The patriarch was a cunning person, and he knew how to deal with people. He understood something, but replied honestly, “Since Yan Ran Xue left for the Imperial City, she has never come back.”

“She never came back? You mean you’ve never seen her since?” demanded Lin Feng grimly.

The patriarch paled a little. Lin Feng was oppressing him with his terrifying Qi. The patriarch’s heart raced, but he forced a smile and replied, “Indeed. I’ve never seen her since.”

“I see… so she never came back…” When Lin Feng heard that, he was disappointed, and felt even more guilty. He shouldn’t have made Yan Ran Xue leave when he had saved her, but it was too late to regret and on top of that, she hadn’t been honest with him. Because of her lack of communication, they had both suffered, and still did.

“Alright, I see. Let’s go,” Lin Feng sighed helplessly. He glanced at Fa Chun and got ready to leave.

Fa Chun nodded and had everybody disperse. He got ready to leave with Lin Feng.

“Excuse me, who is Yan Ran Xue to you?” At that moment, a kind and fragile-looking woman stepped out of the crowd. Her voice was low and gentle. She looked extremely sweet.
