1121 The Busy Lin Fan (2/2)

In the depths of the sect…

”How did it go? What did those few Ancient Immortal Kings say?” Geng Yangtian asked.

Lin Fan shook his head. ”Let's not talk about the Truth Immortal King, as he's no more. The Southern Demon Immortal King agreed to it right away, but from what I could tell, I doubt he's going to join us. As for the last two remaining Immortal Kings, I did not even manage to catch sight of them. I'm guessing that they must have been swayed by the words of the Boundless Future Buddha Lord, and would definitely not come forth to help. Old Master, looking at your expression right now, I'm guessing that you must have expected this, right?”

Geng Yangtian nodded his head. ”Indeed, it's as I had guessed! Those four Ancient Immortal Kings have their entire hearts set on attaining the great Dao of the Heavenly Lord, and would naturally not be concerned over affairs as such. For them, the affairs of the entire universe have nothing to do with them at all.”

Lin Fan chuckled out, ”You had me go over despite knowing that? Wasn't that just to have me make a wasted trip? On my way back, I was blocked by the Boundless Future Buddha Lord in my path. Thankfully, I was rather lucky and managed to give him the slip.”

Geng Yangtian looked at Lin Fan. ”Your strength is already that of an Immortal King, right? You don't have to hide it. I've had a hunch about it for a long time now.”

Lin Fan shrugged his shoulders. ”To think that you would have been able to tell. Initially, I had wanted to give you guys a surprise and tell you that I'm already at the Immortal King state. Since that Truth Immortal King did not know what was good for him, I did him in. There are seventy two Master Gods of the Moon Shadow Mainland, and I have killed two of them as well. However, that Boundless Future Buddha Lord is bound to be hot on my heels from now onwards. I might have to be really careful if I were to head out in the future.”

Geng Yangtian and some of the other Old Masters let out alarmed looks. Even though Lin Fan had said everything really casually, it was something unusually horrifying in their ears.

Han Juntian's face was just blank right now. ”From what you're saying, your current cultivation state is even higher than mine now, right?”

Lin Fan looked over at Han Juntian. ”Grandmaster, don't go harping on such things now. At times, it's better to not compare between ourselves and others. The most important thing in life is to be happy.”

”Hue… Hue…” Han Juntian could only laugh out bitterly. Bloody hell! How was he supposed to be happy about this? Even his disciple was stronger than him right now! If word of this were to get out, how embarrassing would that be?

Even though it is said that the student should always surpass the master, but wasn't this rate of growth way too fast?

Just as Lin Fan and Han Juntian were enjoying their idle conversation, a jade pendant on Geng Yangtians waist suddenly snapped into two, causing the color to drain out of his face. ”Not good!”

”Old Master, what's wrong?” Lin Fan inquired.

”This is a message from Junior Brother Yu Ling! Something must have happened over at the side of the Heavenly River Mountains.” The face of Geng Yangtian froze up. ”Junior Brother Yu Ling is also an Immortal King. For him to send out a distress call, I'm afraid that the side of the Moon Shadow Mainland must have sent out a Master God as well.”

”Old Master, say no more. I'm going to head over to check it out.” Lin Fan interjected immediately without hesitation.

Geng Yangtian's face changed. ”You've only just returned. For you to head out right away again…”

Lin Fan waved it off dismissively. ”Old Master, how can I sit by idly when it comes to affairs of the sect? Leave this matter to me. You guys don't have to come with me. I'm going now.”

How could Lin Fan possibly let this chance up? The only way for him to raise his strength right now was through those Master Gods! If he did not kill Master Gods, he would not gain any significant experience points!

Pshew!

Without waiting for Geng Yangtian and the others to say anything more, Lin Fan left the sect immediately.

Han Juntian could only sigh out, ”Hais! He's truly a wonderful disciple. After this crisis is done with, I think it should be time for me to step down as well.”

Geng Yangtian nodded his head and agreed in silence. Right now, Lin Fan was probably the only one qualified to be the Grandmaster of the Heaven and Earth Sect.
