Chapter 88: Shameless
Lin Fan was unaware of how the situation was going for Jun Wutian. I hope he’s being beaten to death, but that seems impossible.
Lin Fan sprinted all the way and heaved a sigh of relief when he got back to the sect. It was a perfect trip, but who would have expected I’d meet with trouble on the return trip?
Liu Yue, that witch, has nothing on me, but that Jun Wutian is the one that is stressing me out. He’s too powerful, and there’s nothing I can do to him. He’s not an opponent that I could take down even if I used up all my brain cells.
Immortality might be powerful, but if I go forcefully fight him, I would surely not be able to return to the sect. The price is too huge.
I’ll gamble on it and return to the sect and see how things go.
“Slave, how dare you cause trouble to me?”
Jun Wutian could be seen dashing over from afar. He only managed to escape the Blood-Eyed Demonic Ape using tremendous strength.
He was unhappy about the incident. How could a small outer disciple dare to cause trouble to me? Where’s my dignity?
Absolutely horrifying!
Lin Fan gulped. Don’t tell me this guy dares to get rid of me in the sect?
I don’t believe this!
“Senior Brother Jun, this is a misunderstanding.” Lin Fan frowned helplessly, staring into the distance. Is this guy nuts? What am I supposed to say other than “Senior Brother Jun, this is a misunderstanding” when it’s really a misunderstanding?
If I wasn’t way weaker than you, I would really teach you how to be a human.
The Magnificent Flame Sect might’ve been a place filled with love, but anyone who was like Jun Wutian could indeed act without boundaries, just like his name suggested. Even ordinary elders would have to bootlick him.
Anyone that was not blind would know clearly if they should stand by a n.o.ble or a Diaosi. (TL note 1.)
“Senior Brother Jun, this guy is despicable! If it wasn’t for him attracting the Blood-Eyed Demonic Ape, Senior Brother Chen would not have died!” Feng Shaoyun stood next to Jun Wutian, staring at Lin Fan in anger. He was dying to see Lin Fan dead immediately.
“Senior Brother Jun, you should help the sect by killing this rotten apple to clear the sect of all future troubles!” Liu Yue glared at Lin Fan.
The intention to kill!
I can feel that they want me dead.
The disciples who were guarding the sect lowered their heads seeing the situation. They did not even dare to breathe as they were afraid of being pulled down the waters.
On the other hand, they were unaware of what Lin Fan did wrong that resulted in such public wrath.
Lin Fan frowned and looked up at the sky. “Are you planning to kill me at the sect’s entrance? Aren’t you afraid that the sect would punish you?”
“What a joke. Senior Brother Jun’s only helping to get rid of a pest in the sect. Why would they punish him? You think too highly of yourself.” Liu Yue sneered. “Right, how can an ant like you understand how much power and status Senior Brother Jun, the head of the ten peaks, holds? He even has the right to kill.”
Bullies, you guys are such bullies.
Anger boiled in Lin Fan’s system. You guys do talk cutely. I have noted it down, and I will never forget it. Make sure I never catch you ever or I’ll smush your mouths.
“You thought that you would be able to dodge the bullet after returning to the sect, right? I, Jun Wutian, have the right to keep the sect clean. Kneel down,” Jun Wutian said, staring at Lin Fan. In his eyes, Lin Fan was none other than an ant. He could kill him within no time.
The surrounding disciples felt the aura and looked down. They were trembling in fear as silence took over the place. The head of the ten peaks was not someone they could afford to offend.
At the scene, Lin Fan was the only person who was staring into s.p.a.ce. What’s the relationship between Jun Wutian and Jun Wuwu? he pondered, shocked at the name.
“Are you deaf?” Seeing that there was no response from Lin Fan, Liu Yue called out sternly. “How dare you not kneel down when Senior Brother Jun has told you to? Even an ant knows how to save their own life. I think you’re worse than an ant.”
“Ant, ant, ant. Your words are really unpleasant to hear. Liu Yue, what are you other than a dog that threatens others with its master’s power? Come down if you dare and see whether I turn you into mincemeat or not.” Lin Fan stepped up with his mace, still staring up at them. “The head of the ten peaks of the sect Senior Brother Jun, you’re nothing but that too. You can kill someone but not insult them. I, Lin Fan, am aware that I’m not your opponent, but I do not fear you.”
“You…!” Liu Yue stared at Lin Fan coldly. She never expected Lin Fan to speak so daringly when he was on his death bed.
Jun Wutian sneered and said nothing more. He raised his hands and did nothing more, but a transparent giant palm came down from the sky with incomparable force, going for Lin Fan.
Lin Fan had no fear when he was facing something fearful. He was calm when facing someone that was way stronger than him.
If that happens, I’ll just go hard.
“C’mon. Do you think I’m afraid of you?” Lin Fan stared at the transparent palm in the air. An extraordinary force came for him, making his clothes dance in the wind.
A smile crept up the corner of Liu Yue’s mouth. Senior Brother Jun has finally taken action.
I can’t wait for this stubborn guy to turn into a cold corpse.
All of a sudden, the surroundings seemed to have frozen. Jun Wutian’s transparent palm had disappeared into thin air too.
A majestic aura could be felt coming out from the sect.
Before the crowd could register what happened, a figure appeared in front of the crowd.
All disciples, including Jun Wutian, bowed down with respect. “Greetings, Elder Tian Xu.”
“Mm.” Elder Tian Xu stood in mid-air, long beard flowing down from his chin. He only hummed in response, but before Elder Tian Xu made any comment, no one else dared to speak.
Even the head of the ten peaks of the sect, Jun Wutian, would have to bow down to the strongest Elder of the sect.
“Chicken nuggets, you scared me.” After playing cool, Lin Fan’s heart raced after being saved out of nowhere.
Elder Tian Xu, I’ll give you many 6s with my hand…. You’re right on time. (TL note 2.)
However, it was so silent that it confused Lin Fan. Why not say something more since you’re here?
When Lin Fan looked up to Elder Tian Xu, he realized that he had a meaningful glance.
This glance seemed to contain many meanings, but he could understand at least one of them.
“You’re in big trouble, and I’m the only person who can save you. Do you now understand the importance of stable support?
“Do you still not get the idea?”
Others acted according to the other party’s disposition, but Lin Fan had the talent of acting according to the other’s glance. He could understand the other party’s message through their gaze.
Lin Fan was currently speechless. So this old man is forcing me to make a decision.
He still can’t forget the previous incident, huh?
I rejected him without hesitation, which was an embarra.s.sment to him.
But am I the type of person to look back and throw my pride away when I am in danger?
I am well known for being someone who never goes back on his words, and my words are worth nine sacred tripods! (TL note 3.)
But there’s a special case too.
I can throw my pride away after experiencing the cons of having no support. A fall into a pit, a gain in wit. I am a good teenager if I can identify my mistakes.
If Liu Bei could make three humble trips to the thatched cottage, then it’s already good enough that you gave me two chances. We can be too arrogant, and it’s a mistake to be shining too brightly too! (TL note 4.)
Even someone like Elder Tian Xu could not forget me, what’s there left to say?
All of a sudden, a shocking scene unfolded.
Lin Fan went up to Elder Tian Xu and spoke loudly, afraid that not everyone would be able to hear him. “Your humble disciple Lin Fan greets my mentor.”
Elder Tian Xu, who had been putting up a poker face, smiled, which was a rare scene. He nodded his head lightly too. A promising young man.
“I can feel your sincerity, thus I’ll take you in as my direct disciple.”
Lin Fan: “…”
Shameless.
