Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion
Chapter 313 – The position of Patriarch has been decided

Chapter 313 – The position of Patriarch has been decided

After absorbing the essence of the sword, Meng Fan didn't continue polishing the longsword but left the second floor of the Sword Pavilion directly.

He wasn't greedy for more essence; just enough was sufficient. After all, these sword weapons wouldn't run away from the Sword Pavilion, and besides himself, no one else in the entire Shu Mountain Sword Sect could absorb the essence of the sword.

For the next two days, Meng Fan quietly cultivated in the Sword Pavilion, occasionally giving pointers to Shu Changsheng on his sword technique.

His disciple's talent was astonishing, and his cultivation speed was not inferior to Meng Fan's own in the past.

One must know that Meng Fan had always been on a fast track!

Two days later, Senior Disciple Jin came to the Sword Pavilion to find Meng Fan.

Seeing Senior Disciple Jin taking the initiative to come to the Sword Pavilion, Meng Fan already knew that there must be news about Elder Lin.

"Senior Disciple Jin, is there news about Elder Lin?" Meng Fan asked, his face showing a hint of urgency.

Although he kept reassuring himself that with Elder Lin's strength, he wouldn't encounter danger, the more he comforted himself, the more he couldn't help but worry.

In the entire Shu Mountain Sword Sect, no, in the entire world, Elder Lin was the person Meng Fan cared about the most.

Even Li Xuerou, the childhood sweetheart from the same village as this body's previous owner, couldn't compare to Elder Lin in Meng Fan's heart!

"There is no news about Elder Lin, but the struggle for the position of the Fengyun Demon Sect's leader has been settled," Senior Disciple Jin said to Meng Fan.

"Who is the new leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect?" Meng Fan asked instinctively.

Although he was more concerned about Elder Lin's safety than who became the leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect, since Senior Disciple Jin brought it up, Meng Fan was still curious.

"The new leader is Wang Dong. To be honest, when I got this news, many people were extremely surprised, including me!" Senior Disciple Jin said with a tone of surprise.

Although Wang Dong had always been competing with Nie Longjie for the leader's position, most people favored the Fengyun Demon Sect's Holy Son, Nie Longjie.

But in the end, Wang Dong took the position, shocking many!

However, surprise aside, it was also within reason.

"Since Wang Dong has taken over as the leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect, this matter is finally settled. Shouldn't my master be coming back soon?" Meng Fan asked Senior Disciple Jin.

He knew that Elder Lin had hurried down the mountain after receiving a letter from Huoyun Town, which must be related to the Fengyun Demon Sect!

Now that the matter of the Fengyun Demon Sect was settled, even if Senior Disciple Jin had no news of Elder Lin, Elder Lin should be coming back.

Seeing the worry on Meng Fan's face, Senior Disciple Jin nodded and said, "In theory, that should be the case."

He didn't dare to speak too definitively, but this was already a way to comfort Meng Fan.

However, there were some things Senior Disciple Jin hadn't planned to hide, but seeing the worry on Meng Fan's face now, he chose not to say them.

What he didn't tell Meng Fan was that the struggle for the Fengyun Demon Sect's leadership had spiraled out of control before it ended!

Both Wang Dong and Nie Longjie were members of the Fengyun Demon Sect. Their competition for the leader's position should have had limits and boundaries!

The boundary was that they shouldn't kill each other.

But two days ago, that boundary was completely shattered.

Although they were all from the Fengyun Demon Sect, Wang Dong's faction and Nie Longjie's faction lost their minds and started a massacre, killing each other until the sky darkened.

The battle two days ago!

The Fengyun Demon Sect suffered heavy losses, with half of its experts falling.

Once a top demonic sect, the Fengyun Demon Sect fell to a first-rate sect overnight!

If Elder Lin had been involved in that battle, Senior Disciple Jin couldn't guarantee his survival. The battle was too brutal, and the risk of falling was too high!

Seeing Meng Fan so worried, he decided not to reveal this information, to avoid making Meng Fan even more anxious.

Because maybe he was overthinking, and Elder Lin would return in a couple of days!

"By the way, Senior Disciple Jin, what happened to Nie Longjie after he failed to seize the leader's position? Is he still alive?" Meng Fan suddenly asked.

Since ancient times, the victor takes all, and the loser rarely has a good end.

"Dead!" Senior Disciple Jin didn't hide this fact and said it straightforwardly.

The Fengyun Demon Sect was a notorious demonic sect, and most of its members were ruthless. Wang Dong was no exception.

Having become the leader of the Fengyun Demon Sect, how could he allow Nie Longjie to live and continue threatening him?

"Demonic sect members are indeed ruthless, not even sparing their own," Meng Fan muttered to himself.

Senior Disciple Jin laughed, his tone disdainful, "It's not just the demonic path; the righteous path is the same. In such situations, they would also eliminate any threats to avoid future troubles."

Hearing Senior Disciple Jin's words, Meng Fan showed a hint of surprise.

"Senior Disciple Jin, the way you say it, it sounds like your moral compass isn't very high. Are you a spy from the demonic path?"

This was purely a joke.

Because Meng Fan had seen Senior Disciple Jin's childhood memories in the Sword Wraith Memory, he knew why Senior Disciple Jin joined the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, so it was impossible for him to be a spy from the demonic path.

But Senior Disciple Jin gave Meng Fan a deep look and said coldly, "Damn, you've discovered my secret. What should I do? Should I kill you to keep you quiet?"

Meng Fan heard this and didn't take it to heart, even rolling his eyes.

"Senior Disciple Jin, your attempts at humor are really not funny at all."

Some people are just not born with a sense of humor, and Senior Disciple Jin was one of them.

Senior Disciple Jin smiled, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.

Not funny?

He thought it was quite funny.

After Senior Disciple Jin left, Meng Fan's worry for Elder Lin didn't ease.

Since the struggle for the Fengyun Demon Sect's leadership was settled, with Senior Disciple Jin's information network, there should be some news about Elder Lin.

But there was none, which was worrisome.

"Hope I'm just overthinking," Meng Fan muttered to himself.

In a blink of an eye, another seven days passed, and Meng Fan couldn't help but go to find Senior Disciple Jin again.

But Senior Disciple Jin's answer was the same as before, still no news.

Sometimes, no news is good news!

But in this situation, Meng Fan felt that no news was bad news.

"Don't worry, Elder Lin will be fine," Senior Disciple Jin comforted Meng Fan.

But this comfort carried no weight at all!

During this time, due to worrying about Elder Lin, Meng Fan had completely forgotten about Wu Tian, who had been tormented in the Contemplation Room for over a month.

Although Wu Tian's days were extremely tough, his progress was also significant.

Not only had he cultivated to the Condensation Pill Realm, but being constantly attacked by chaotic swords had deepened his understanding of the Sword Dao.
