Chapter 267 (2/2)
He didn't understand, of course, it was reasonable to say that the current Ye Zhentian shouldn't be scared when he saw Lin Fan.
He could hide as far away as he could, but how dare he appear here so blatantly?
”Brother Ye, I've already seen you. If you have anything to say, come over here and say it, and don't be sneaky. If I didn't recognize it was you, I would have slapped you away.” Lin Fan shouted; he wanted to see what Ye Zhentian had in mind.
Ye Zhentian heard Lin Fan's voice and shivered in fright. He then tried to come in with a barely perceptible smile, yet on second thought, he couldn't smile at Lin Fan at all.
He was still reluctant.
However, a great man could bend. After becoming a core disciple, he became much more arrogant; but now, he had lost his arrogance.
Ye Zhentian arrived in front of Lin Fan. For him, the atmosphere was a bit depressing at this time, and his heart was beating very indisputably.
Lin Fan looked at Ye Zhentian, ”What? What's the matter? Looking at your sneaky appearance, you seem to have an idea. Could it be that you are stealing something from me? Or do you just step on the spot and look for a chance to kill me?”
Ye Zhentian was so horrified by Lin Fan's words that he didn't know what to say. He wanted to leave without this anger.
However, when he thought of yesterday's scene, he felt that the scene was picturesque and somewhat chilling.
”This is the spirit stones.” Ye Zhentian took out his storage bag and placed it in front of Lin Fan, ”No more, no less. It's the exact amount.”
Lin Fan grabbed the bag and took a look at it. He then looked at Ye Zhentian and smiled, ”This is strange. I thought you didn't have any. How come you have them so quickly? Also, the sect master has come to me and talked to me. This wouldn't be the sect master lending it to you and asking you to return it, right? It seems that the sect master is really good for you.”
Ye Zhentian felt there was something in words.
There was a problem.
A big problem.
It was about him snitching.
”It's not the sect master's; it's my own. I happened to receive these spirit stones today and sent them over.” Ye Zhentian said.
He really didn't have any spirit stones.
He borrowed them from an elder, and he had to pay them back. Initially, he hadn't thought of asking someone to borrow the spirit stones and give them to Lin Fan, but yesterday's situation was a bit scary.
”Hehe.” Lin Fan smiled, putting the spirit stone away, ”Well, that's good. I thought you went to the sect master's place to snitch and have no intention of giving it. However, now that you've given it, the matter of the spirit stone is over. I'm not going to dwell with you on this matter.”
”If there's nothing else, why don't you stay for a cup of tea?”
Ye Zhentian already wanted to leave, how could he stay and drink tea? He waved his hand, ”No, no need. I won't bother you; I'll take my leave.”
He didn't wait for Lin Fan to say anything more.
He directly ran away.
Lin Fan looked at Ye Zhentian's departing back and fell into deep contemplation. How should he find trouble with Ye Zhentian next?
This was a rather serious matter.
His master said to let it go, but how could he let it go like this? He must let Ye Zhentian know what kind of serious matter he had done, what kind of heavenly wrath he had caused.
At this time, Ye Zhentian was about to die of sorrow.
He had borrowed millions of spirit stones from an elder. Even with interest, he would have to pay back 30,000 a month.
Before, he was a free man with no debt. But now there was a heavy burden on his shoulders.
It had to be paid back quickly, or else it would be absolutely overwhelming.
……….
Several days later.
The vice sect master of the Void Jade Palace came to the Greatest Martial Sect.
Lin Fan was idle and wandering around, and when he learned that the Void Jade Palace was coming, he was curious.
If he didn't take action on the thing that happened in the Void Jade Palace, what would they think of the Greatest Martial Sect?
Inside the main hall.
When Lin Fan saw the vice sect master, he nodded slightly as a greeting as they looked at each other.
”Fellow Cultivator Ren, I wonder what's your purpose of coming to Greatest Martial Sect?” Sect Master Bai Qiu inquired.
Vice Sect Master Ren said, ”Sect Master Bai, this time I came to ask the Greatest Martial Sect for a favor. This matter is crucial to our Void Jade Palace, and even more related to the demon action. Truth be told, the situation on the other side of Jade Mountain is somewhat uncontainable. The demon fog drifting out of the abyssal cracks continues to spread towards the surrounding area…”
”…The Void Jade Palace has been unable to stop it with all its efforts, and would like to ask Master Bai to use the Greatest Martial Sect's treasure, the Greatest Martial Dao Pen, to suppress the area and seal off the demonic fog on Jade Mountain.”
Recently, the Void Jade Palace was busy with the matter of the Jade Mountain.
Because of the terrifying presence there, many sects never appeared again.
It was as if the demon event had nothing to do with them.
Lin Fan wondered about the Greatest Martial Sect's treasure; he had never seen it before. The name of it was quite desirable.
Greatest Martial Dao Pen.
Just by looking at the first three words, he couldn't tell what this object was. However, the last word was clear, so the Greatest Martial Sect's treasure was a pen.
”This….” The sect master frowned and hesitated, using the Greatest Martial Dao Pen would affect the Greatest Martial Sect's qi.
The purpose of the Greatest Martial Dao Pen was to suppress the qi of the Greatest Martial Sect.
It contained the spirit vein and hadn't been touched for hundreds of years. However, now the Void Jade Palace wanted to come and borrow the pen, making it a bit difficult for Bai Qiu.
Lin Fan said, ”Sect master, disciples think we should make a move. The situation over at Jade Mountain is a bit complicated. The demons want to return, so we as a great immortal sect must stop this.”
”Although the Jade Mountain is the territory of the Void Jade Palace, it is reasonable to say that it should be the Void Jade Palace's own to resolve the matter. However, when it comes to the matter of demons, it must be unified. We can't just sit idly by because it doesn't involve our sect.”
He righteously said this.
Vice Sect Master Ren looked at Lin Fan gratefully, not expecting this little friend to be so sensible.
Bai Qiu looked at Lin Fan and blinked; what an excellent kid.
