Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion -
Chapter 302 – He had forgotten about an even more ruthless star
Chapter 302 – He had forgotten about an even more ruthless star
Elder Lin was swift and decisive this time. After giving Meng Fan some instructions, he left the Sword Pavilion and descended the mountain.
As for where he was going and what he was going to do, he didn't say a word.
The night was cool as water, and moonlight streamed through the window, illuminating Meng Fan's face as he sat cross-legged on the bed.
Although Elder Lin said nothing, Meng Fan's intuition told him that Elder Lin had gone to the Fengyun Demon Sect.
He was somewhat worried about Elder Lin's journey.
Indeed, Elder Lin was very strong, extremely strong.
But the Fengyun Demon Sect was not Elder Lin's home turf, and the risks were too great!
If it were on Shu Mountain, Meng Fan could unconditionally trust Elder Lin, even thinking that Elder Lin could wrestle with the Sect Master.
Of course, the result would definitely be a loss, but at least he could try.
"Master has roamed the martial world for so many years; he's the most seasoned of veterans. How could it be my turn to worry? Master will definitely be fine."
Meng Fan muttered to himself and continued his meditation and cultivation.
However, he couldn't calm his mind and enter the state for a long time.
The next day, Meng Fan hurried to the Scripture Pavilion.
As for Wu Tian, Meng Fan had Senior Disciple Luo keeping an eye on him.
Although Senior Disciple Luo's cultivation level and strength were far inferior to Wu Tian's, Senior Disciple Luo wasn't blind.
Whether Wu Tian went to the second floor of the Sword Pavilion or stole a sword from the Sword Pavilion, Senior Disciple Luo would inform Meng Fan.
By then... (the bloody scene is not suitable for description)
Meng Fan came to the Scripture Pavilion to seek information from Senior Disciple Jin.
Master didn't want to tell him why he went down the mountain, but he felt that Senior Disciple Jin must know something.
After all, Senior Disciple Jin's persona was the all-knowing sage of Shu Mountain.
Scripture Pavilion!
Senior Disciple Jin looked at Meng Fan standing before him and said helplessly, "Why are you here again?"
Although Meng Fan had come to him several times, and he was a bit annoyed, to be honest, for a long period before, Meng Fan hadn't come to him, and he felt rather bored.
Meng Fan came to him, naturally, to inquire about Elder Lin.
Although Meng Fan was calm and didn't ask or stop Elder Lin when he went down the mountain, it was because Meng Fan knew Elder Lin wouldn't say anything, and he couldn't stop him.
As for following Elder Lin down the mountain...
Heh.
Elder Lin hurried down the mountain, clearly having important matters to attend to. Following him would only be a burden.
So after Elder Lin left, Meng Fan could only seek information from Senior Disciple Jin.
"Senior Disciple Jin, Elder Lin left right after receiving the letter you passed to him," Meng Fan said to Senior Disciple Jin.
Hearing Meng Fan's words, Senior Disciple Jin understood Meng Fan's intention.
He shook his head and said, "I told you yesterday, the letter had no signature, and I don't know who sent it. As for the content of the letter, I know even less. How could I possibly peek at Elder Lin's letter?"
On this point, Meng Fan believed him.
Not because he thought Senior Disciple Jin was of high moral character, but because he believed Senior Disciple Jin wouldn't dare do such a thing, as Elder Lin would definitely beat him half to death!
Don't be fooled by Elder Lin's usual kindness towards Meng Fan and Shu Changsheng; it didn't mean he had a good temper.
For instance, someone once badmouthed Elder Lin behind his back and got three legs broken by him, unable to get out of bed for three months.
Actually, two of the legs healed in three days.
But the third leg was almost crippled, taking three months to barely heal, and it was said it still hurt and was never fully cured.
"Senior Disciple Jin, with our life-and-death friendship, don't fool me. Give me some inside information," Meng Fan said with a smile.
"When did we have a life-and-death friendship?" Senior Disciple Jin looked puzzled.
Meng Fan lowered his voice and whispered, "With our relationship with Elder Wang, isn't that a life-and-death bond?"
Senior Disciple Jin rolled his eyes and didn't respond.
Seeing Senior Disciple Jin unmoved, Meng Fan had to press on, "Senior Disciple Jin, even someone as ignorant as me can guess that since the letter came from Huoyun Town, it most likely has something to do with the Fengyun Demon Sect!
With your vast knowledge and experience, you must know more than I do. Just give your junior brother a little hint."
[No need to call you when nothing's up, but addressing you formally when there is]
At least it sounded more pleasant.
Senior Disciple Jin glanced at Meng Fan. He had a good impression of Meng Fan and didn't mind lending a hand when it was within his power.
Note two premises.
First, within his power.
Second, casually.
If it was even a little difficult, he might refuse.
Senior Disciple Jin hesitated for a moment and then said to Meng Fan, "Although I don't know what was written in the letter Elder Lin received, nor why Elder Lin went down the mountain.
However...
I can confirm that the letter is most likely related to the Fengyun Demon Sect.
Moreover, the most important thing is, something major happened recently in the Fengyun Demon Sect!"
Meng Fan was listening intently, but Senior Disciple Jin stopped here, leaving him hanging.
He could only cooperate and ask, "Senior Disciple Jin, what major event happened in the Fengyun Demon Sect?"
Senior Disciple Jin pondered for a moment, seemingly hesitating whether to tell Meng Fan the news.
But it wasn't really a secret, so there was nothing to hide.
"The leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect attempted a tribulation crossing."
This news stunned Meng Fan.
He was just casually inquiring about some gossip, but Senior Disciple Jin dropped a bombshell.
[Tribulation Crossing]
This was the ultimate fantasy and dream of every cultivator.
Hearing these two words, even with Meng Fan's determination, he was momentarily lost.
"The leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect attempted a tribulation crossing? Did he succeed? Did he ascend to immortality?" Meng Fan asked curiously.
Just after asking, he continued, "Wait a minute, Senior Disciple Jin, what does the leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect attempting a tribulation crossing have to do with my master?"
He was clearly asking about his master, so why was Senior Disciple Jin talking about the leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect?
Senior Disciple Jin shook his head and said, "I haven't finished yet, why are you in such a hurry?
The leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect failed the tribulation crossing.
He's dead!
As a righteous person, this news is actually good news, as it means the fall of a great figure in the demonic path.
As for why Elder Lin went to the Fengyun Demon Sect, ultimately, it has something to do with the leader's fall.
Because after the leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect fell, a new leader needs to be chosen.
And now, the Fengyun Demon Sect is divided into two factions.
One is led by Elder Wang Dong.
The other is led by the Holy Son, Nie Longjie.
Wang Dong represents the new generation of elders in the Fengyun Demon Sect. Although he has only been an elder for three years, his strength is terrifying, ranking among the top three elders.
Moreover, he is young, with boundless potential, extremely formidable!
Nie Longjie, the Holy Son of the Fengyun Demon Sect.
Holy Son sounds young, but in fact, he is much older than Wang Dong and represents the old faction of the Fengyun Demon Sect.
Most importantly, Nie Longjie is the son of the former leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect!
Barring any surprises, the new leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect will definitely be one of these two."
