Chapter 355 – Fate with Buddha? Karmic connection
In Meng Fan's view, Wu Tian was already a cultivator at the Condensation Pill Realm. Why would he still care about those petty gains in the mortal world?
Wu Tian looked at Meng Fan in surprise and said, "What do you mean by just a mortal family? Senior Brother Meng, do you have some misunderstanding about my Wu family?
Our Wu family is not some small household in the mortal world. In the entire Cultivation World, the Wu family is a well-known aristocratic family.
Of course, we can't compare to your Shu Mountain Sword Sect, but we're definitely not weaker than a second-rate sect.
The treasures in our Wu family’s ancestral land are countless. Just picking one or two could easily sell for ten thousand Spirit Stones.
What I just mentioned about ten thousand Spirit Stones is not a lie!"
Hearing Wu Tian's words, a trace of surprise appeared on Meng Fan's face.
He had thought that Wu Tian's family was just an ordinary family in the mortal world. Now it seemed he had underestimated them.
"If the Wu family is so strong, why did they send you to the Vajra Temple instead of nurturing you within the family?" Meng Fan asked, puzzled.
Wu Tian's face was full of helplessness upon hearing this.
He had a lot of complaints about this matter.
"When I was born, my father had a good friend, an old monk from the Vajra Temple, who insisted that I had a predestined affinity with Buddhism and wanted to take me as a disciple.
My foolish father believed him and sent me directly to the Vajra Temple.
What could I do?
I was helpless too!
I also wanted to be a pampered scion, living a life of luxury and oppressing the good...
Unfortunately, I wasn't that lucky!"
It was obvious that Wu Tian's father's friend, the old monk who was Wu Tian's master, had misjudged.
Wu Tian clearly had no true affinity with Buddhism!
If anything, it was a karmic misfortune.
"So you want to return to the Wu family to fight for a spot to enter the ancestral land?" Meng Fan asked Wu Tian with a frown.
From Wu Tian's tone, it seemed that the Wu family's ancestral land was indeed something valuable.
If he stopped Wu Tian from returning, it would indeed be inappropriate.
However, if Wu Tian encountered trouble and danger upon returning...
Thinking of this, Meng Fan shook his head helplessly.
Wu Tian was going back to his own home, and there was nothing he could do if he encountered trouble.
When Elder Lin returned, Meng Fan could give an account of himself.
Besides, what danger could he encounter at his own home?
At this moment, Wu Tian, standing opposite, said somewhat irritably, "What do you mean by fighting for a spot to enter the ancestral land?
That spot is rightfully mine; I just won't let anyone else take it!
It's not that I want to go back to show off, but I must reclaim what belongs to me. No one can take it away."
Meng Fan frowned deeply, staring seriously at Wu Tian, and said in a heavy tone, "Are you really planning to return to the Wu family?"
"Of course, do you think I would lie to you? If you're really worried, why don't you come with me to the Wu family? After it's done, I'll return to Shu Mountain with you!" Wu Tian said to Meng Fan.
Meng Fan's eyes were sharp as he looked directly into Wu Tian's eyes.
"You want me to go with you to the Wu family? Are you planning to team up with your relatives to teach me a lesson for bullying you all this time?"
"Senior Brother Meng, you really misunderstand me," Wu Tian said with a bitter smile.
"My relationship with those relatives in the Wu family isn't as good as my relationship with you!"
Hearing this, Meng Fan couldn't help but laugh.
He didn't doubt Wu Tian's words!
Based on what he knew about Wu Tian, given Wu Tian's personality, his cousins probably hated him to the core.
As for Wu Tian's father, who was said to be imprisoned, Meng Fan believed Wu Tian wasn't lying about that either.
If he were lying, Meng Fan would have to reevaluate his opinion of Wu Tian and see him in a new light.
That level of acting would be quite impressive!
However...
Regardless of Wu Tian's situation in his family, Meng Fan had no intention of going to the Wu family with him.
Was he that bored?
Why get involved in someone else's family affairs?
Meng Fan would never do something so thankless.
"If you really want to go home, I have no reason to stop you. Even if Elder Lin asks me later, I can honestly tell him the truth. There's no problem; I can let you leave.
But asking me to accompany you to the Wu family? Are you kidding me?
Whether you return to the Sword Pavilion after going home is none of my concern. I don't care about you!"
This was Meng Fan's honest thought.
Previously, he had stopped Wu Tian from going down the mountain because he didn't want Wu Tian to cause trouble in the mortal world.
Now that he knew Wu Tian was going home, he didn't care anymore.
If this kid went home obediently, it would save him a lot of trouble.
As a result, after Meng Fan decided to let Wu Tian leave Shu Mountain, this kid still clung to him, trying to drag him along.
"Senior Brother Meng, if you come with me to the Wu family, after it's done, not only will I return to the Shu Mountain Sword Pavilion with you, but I also promise to give you ten thousand Spirit Stones!"
Wu Tian knew Meng Fan valued Spirit Stones highly, so he used them to entice Meng Fan again.
Hearing this, Meng Fan couldn't help but sneer.
"I just said that ten thousand Spirit Stones could indeed buy me, but I don't believe you can come up with ten thousand Spirit Stones."
To be honest, if he could really get ten thousand Spirit Stones, he wouldn't mind going to the Wu family with Wu Tian.
After all, the Wu family wasn't a dragon's den, and as a disciple of Shu Mountain, even if the Wu family wasn't friendly, they wouldn't harm him.
But still, he didn't believe Wu Tian could come up with ten thousand Spirit Stones!
Wu Tian frowned. He knew that given his current situation, promising ten thousand Spirit Stones wouldn't gain anyone's trust.
But if he didn't drag Meng Fan along, he wouldn't get any benefits from going home.
Not to mention, he had a cousin named Wu Jun, who he couldn't defeat.
And the one trying to take his spot this time was Wu Jun.
If he could drag Meng Fan along, he believed Meng Fan's strength could handle Wu Jun.
Unfortunately, it was easy for Meng Fan to fool him, but it wasn't easy for him to fool Meng Fan!
Wu Tian thought carefully, then took something out from his storage space.
It was half a blade!
It seemed to be the broken half of a sword weapon.
The broken blade was entirely silver-white, with a translucent luster, indicating extraordinary material.
Moreover, the silver-white blade emitted a strange, eerie glow, with a clearly noticeable malevolent aura.
Meng Fan, who often dealt with various sword weapons in the Sword Pavilion, had a good eye for identifying weapons.
With one glance, he could tell that this broken blade was a Dao weapon.
