Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion
Chapter 350 – Although my surname is Meng, I’m not fierce enough

Chapter 350 – Although my surname is Meng, I’m not fierce enough

Meng Fan didn't want to mention the Fengyun Demon Sect in front of Lin Jinghong, knowing that Lin Jinghong was an undercover agent who had come from there. But with Elder Lin's life or death uncertain, he couldn't hold back.

If he didn't speak up now, even if he ventured into the Fengyun Demon Sect's territory again, it would likely be futile and he wouldn't find anything.

This was his only chance. If he missed it, seeing the Sect Master again would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens!

Lin Jinghong smiled and glanced at Meng Fan.

"Lin Bianyun?

Heh, you're quite filial, aren't you?

Don't worry, Lin Bianyun is fine. You don't need to worry about him. He will come back in due time.

And don't be foolish enough to go looking for him at the Fengyun Demon Sect; he's not there right now!"

Hearing Lin Jinghong's words, Meng Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the Sect Master said Elder Lin was fine, then Elder Lin should indeed be fine. After all, the Sect Master wouldn't lie to him.

"Then, Sect Master, where is my master now?" Meng Fan asked instinctively.

"You brat, why do you ask so many questions, just like that girl Yang Ling?" Lin Jinghong waved his hand impatiently, and Meng Fan's figure instantly appeared outside the Demon Locking Tower.

Outside the tower, Meng Fan looked at its massive doors, feeling helpless.

Did he ask too many questions?

Actually, he hadn't even finished asking them!

He still wanted to ask why the Sect Master had come to the Demon Locking Tower, and whether there was any unusual activity there.

But now, he had no chance to ask.

And even if there was something unusual, it had nothing to do with a small fry like him!

"Why did it take you so long to come out? What did the Sect Master talk to you about for so long?" Yang Ling asked curiously.

Meng Fan, without missing a beat, said, "The Sect Master said I'm a promising talent and holds me in high regard. He wants to groom me to be the next Sect Master of Shu Mountain."

He was completely making it up.

Yang Ling rolled her eyes and ignored Meng Fan, clearly not believing him.

But Li Xuerou believed Meng Fan's nonsense completely. She even developed a good impression of the Sect Master, thinking he had great vision.

"Disciple, since the Sect Master is unwilling to accompany you to the Hundred Flowers Sect, next time you go, I will go with you!

Although my strength isn't as terrifying as the Sect Master's, as long as I'm there, those people from the Hundred Flowers Sect won't dare act recklessly.

At the very least, they won't dare to harm you!" Yang Ling said to Li Xuerou.

In her view, if the Sect Master were willing to go to the Hundred Flowers Sect, the Peony Ancestor's legacy would be a sure thing.

But if she went alone and the Hundred Flowers Sect had ulterior motives, she might not be able to protect the legacy, but she could at least ensure Li Xuerou's safety!

After all, no matter what, the Hundred Flowers Sect wouldn't completely break ties with the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

"Xuerou, Elder Yang is right. It's very dangerous for you to go to the Hundred Flowers Sect alone this time. Next time you go, make sure to inform Elder Yang and have her accompany you," Meng Fan advised Li Xuerou.

Li Xuerou nodded seriously, "I understand."

As for when she would go to the Hundred Flowers Sect again, she hadn't decided yet.

So, for now, the matter was put to rest.

Meng Fan parted ways with Li Xuerou and Yang Ling and returned to the Sword Pavilion.

With Elder Lin absent, Meng Fan felt that something was missing in the Sword Pavilion.

But since he had received news from the Sect Master that Elder Lin was safe, he was relieved.

Knowing that Elder Lin wasn't in the Fengyun Demon Sect, he naturally wouldn't think of going there to gather information.

Unexpectedly, meeting the Sect Master in the Demon Locking Tower had put his mind at ease.

No, three things at ease!

Back in the Sword Pavilion, Meng Fan relaxed his tense mind. Instead of meditating, he lay on his bed and had a good sleep.

The next morning, Meng Fan walked out of his room, glanced at the array of swords in the Sword Pavilion, and thought that his life was finally back on track.

For now, he didn't need to think about going down the mountain.

He just needed to cultivate quietly in the Shu Mountain Sword Sect and wait for news of Elder Lin.

"My cultivation level is just a step away from the fifth level of the Condensing Elixir Realm. It's time to break through," Meng Fan murmured to himself.

Meng Fan's cultivation speed had always been impressive. Although he had a Mixed Spiritual Root, his actual cultivation speed was comparable to that of a Heavenly Spiritual Root.

So he never forced himself too much in terms of cultivation; he focused more on sword techniques and Sword Dao.

A strong Sword Dao allowed for defeating enemies of higher realms, which was exhilarating!

"However, my ability to defeat enemies of higher realms is still not strong enough," Meng Fan was not satisfied.

Although his surname was Meng, he wasn't that fierce yet!

With his current cultivation at the fourth level of the Condensing Elixir Realm, defeating ordinary cultivators at the eighth or ninth level wasn't difficult.

But defeating a cultivator at the Summoning God Realm, even just the first level, was still very challenging!

Naturally, Meng Fan was not satisfied with this!

As a time traveler with a "cheat," if he couldn't defeat enemies of a higher realm, it would be a disgrace to the time traveler community.

For Meng Fan, improving his strength wasn't difficult; he had many ways to do so.

The simplest, most direct, and most effective way was to continue comprehending the Sword God Stele.

This trip down the mountain had been fraught with danger, but the gains were significant.

Not to mention, he now had over twenty thousand spirit stones.

If he went to comprehend the Sword God Stele, he could do so for twenty days and nights straight!

"Wait, besides spirit stones, there are other valuable items in the storage ring I got from the Fengyun Demon Sect leader. Selling those could also bring in a considerable amount of wealth."

Thinking of this, Meng Fan went to the Alchemy Hall and found Liu Yanping.

Buying pills was something to ask Ye Qingyu about.

But selling pills was more reliable with Liu Yanping.

"Senior Brother Meng, where have you been lately? You asked me to find people for you to teach sword techniques for a fee. Are you still doing that business?" Liu Yanping asked, surprised to see Meng Fan, as she had looked for him at the Sword Pavilion a few days ago but couldn't find him.

Senior Disciple Luo had mentioned that Meng Fan had gone down the mountain, but didn't know where.

"Is there someone else who needs guidance in sword techniques? You know my fees aren't low, starting at a thousand spirit stones," Meng Fan said with a smile. "But let's talk about that later; I have some serious business with you."

"What business?" Liu Yanping asked.

She knew Meng Fan wouldn't come to her without a reason; he wouldn't visit the Three Treasures Hall without a purpose.

Meng Fan took out some bottles and jars and said to Liu Yanping, "I have some pills here. Can you help me find a way to sell them?"

The Alchemy Hall did have a pill recycling service.

But selling directly to the Alchemy Hall would definitely result in being "ripped off."
