Chapter 407 – Master, I am not a scumbag
Chapter 407 – Master, I am not a scumbag
When he first joined the Sword Pavilion and became Elder Lin's disciple, Meng Fan didn't really understand much about the Shu Mountain Sword Sect. He instinctively thought that such Heavenly Grade Sword Techniques were very advanced and had indeed heard that only the Sect Master and his successors could practice them.
But now, looking back, it seemed utterly ridiculous!
So...
Had Elder Lin been putting on an act all this time?
How could he possibly not know these Heavenly Grade Sword Techniques of Shu Mountain?
Thinking of this, Meng Fan asked with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice, "Master, I have a question for you."
"What is it?" Elder Lin responded.
"Master, do you really not know those Heavenly Grade Sword Techniques of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect? Not even the Myriad Swords Art?" Meng Fan asked through gritted teeth.
Although it was a question, Meng Fan already knew the answer.
He asked purely to express his dissatisfaction.
To think that as a disciple, he had been fooled by Elder Lin for so long was simply too much.
"No, I don't. The Myriad Swords Art of Shu Mountain was something you shared with me before, wasn't it?" Elder Lin said with a serious face.
If it had been a few months ago, Meng Fan would have been easily deceived by Elder Lin.
But now, looking at Elder Lin's serious face, four words came to Meng Fan's mind—[Old Fox].
Even at this point, he still wanted to deceive him?
It was too heartbreaking!
"Master, since I've asked, it means I already know the answer. There's no point in hiding it from me anymore!
You just said that when the Sect Master encountered trouble, he immediately contacted you to return to Shu Mountain to take charge. This proves that in the Sect Master's mind, you are second only to him.
Otherwise, why would he seek you out first to take charge?
In other words, you are the second-in-command of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, and your strength is likely second only to the Sect Master!
How could someone like you not know the Heavenly Grade Sword Techniques of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect?"
The more Meng Fan spoke, the more he felt foolish.
"I should have realized it earlier. The Sword Elder, who wields the Divine Artifact, the Demon Locking Sword, how could you be just an ordinary elder?
The older, the wiser! As a junior, I am still too young and naive!"
Hearing Meng Fan's words, Elder Lin shook his head and tried to explain, "These are all your baseless speculations. I just have a good relationship with the Sect Master, and he trusts me, so he asked me to return to take charge!"
"Master, even Lin Feiyan knows the Myriad Swords Art, and you still dare to say you don't?" Meng Fan said helplessly.
He wasn't questioning or blaming Elder Lin; he just felt a bit upset for being deceived for so long.
Even as a junior, was it too much to vent a little?
Elder Lin's face changed, and he asked nervously, "When did you get involved with that girl Lin Feiyan?"
As an old friend of Lin Jinghong, Elder Lin naturally knew that Lin Jinghong was a playboy, leaving illegitimate children everywhere, so many that they couldn't be counted on one hand.
But among all his descendants, Lin Jinghong cherished Lin Feiyan the most.
The news of Meng Fan getting involved with Lin Feiyan was something Elder Lin had never expected.
Especially since he knew that Meng Fan had several women around him, reminiscent of Lin Jinghong's younger days.
Liu Yanping, Ye Qingyu, Yang Yuqi, Li Xuerou...
Each of these women was extremely outstanding, and any ordinary man would be lucky to have just one.
Elder Lin's frown deepened. This rascal, knowing so many women wasn't enough, and he still dared to get involved with Lin Feiyan?
If Lin Jinghong found out about his precious granddaughter's relationship with Meng Fan, he would never let Meng Fan off!
"Master, rest assured, Lin Feiyan and I are just ordinary friends. It's not as complicated as you think." Seeing Elder Lin's complex expression, Meng Fan instantly guessed that Elder Lin was probably thinking of something dirty!
Shameless old man!
Elder Lin didn't believe Meng Fan's words and glared at him, "Ordinary friends? Liu Yanping, Ye Qingyu, Yang Yuqi, Li Xuerou, which one of them isn't your 'ordinary friend'?"
"Oh, Li Xuerou isn't an ordinary friend. She's your sister, and not even a blood-related sister!"
Meng Fan was stunned.
He never thought that in Elder Lin's eyes, he would be seen this way.
He was clearly a decent man, so how did he become a playboy and a womanizer in Elder Lin's eyes?
He wasn't the Sect Master.
He wasn't Lin Jinghong!
The key was that those women Elder Lin mentioned were really just his ordinary friends.
It was so unfair!
"Master, they really are just my ordinary friends, without any romantic feelings. You're overthinking it." Meng Fan said helplessly.
"Ordinary friends? Ha, it doesn't matter if I believe they're your ordinary friends. The key is whether Lin Jinghong believes it!" Elder Lin said coldly.
Hearing Elder Lin's words, Meng Fan was truly speechless.
This kind of thing, even if he was right, he couldn't explain it clearly.
"Master, really..."
"Alright, enough. You should go back. I need to think about how to handle the upcoming matters." Elder Lin said helplessly.
Before Meng Fan left, Elder Lin added, "By the way, try to avoid contact with Lin Feiyan in the future. Lin Jinghong treasures his granddaughter like a gem. Don't bring trouble upon yourself."
"Got it." Meng Fan sighed and reluctantly turned to leave.
Watching Meng Fan walk down the stairs, Elder Lin let out a long sigh of relief and found a chair to sit down.
Finally, he had managed to fool this kid.
Otherwise, if this kid kept asking about the Heavenly Grade Sword Techniques, it would be hard to brush him off.
After all, the kid had already noticed something. It wouldn't be easy to deceive him anymore.
Indeed, the older, the wiser!
"Senior Brother Meng, Senior Brother Meng, what did Elder Lin talk to you about? Where has he been all this time? Why did he suddenly come back?"
As soon as Meng Fan walked down the stairs, he saw the curious Wu Tian waiting downstairs.
In a bad mood, Meng Fan snapped at Wu Tian, "How should I know? If you want to know, ask Elder Lin yourself!"
Leaving a bewildered Wu Tian behind, Meng Fan walked back to his room.
Standing at the staircase, Wu Tian felt miserable.
No one cared for him.
Elder Lin ignored him, and Meng Fan ignored him too!
Alone in the Sword Pavilion, he truly experienced the coldness of the world.
Like drinking water, only he knew whether it was warm or cold.
Back in his room, Meng Fan looked at the still suffering Hong Qi and sighed.
He couldn't understand what was going on in Elder Lin's mind to misunderstand his disciple so much.
