Chapter 409 – Master, I succeeded

"Don't worry."

"We've got this!"

The two elders sat cross-legged at a spot not too close and not too far from the lakeside, their faces serious.

"Alright, my disciple, we can head back now," Elder Lin said to Meng Fan.

One had to admit, Elder Lin's self-control at this moment was impressive, something that took Meng Fan by surprise.

Because Elder Lin didn't even glance at the lake bottom, as if he wasn't interested at all.

In fact, Elder Liu and Elder Li were the same; they didn't show much curiosity about the lake bottom either.

Unlike Meng Fan, whose gaze couldn't help but linger on the lake bottom, even hoping deep down that the next second would bring the Sect Master and Elder Yang Ling back.

Compared to these elders, Meng Fan indeed seemed quite immature in many ways.

On the way back, Elder Lin didn't take Meng Fan on the flying boat again. Instead, he showed a trick, pulling Meng Fan along in a teleportation, appearing in the Shu Mountain Sword Pavilion in an instant.

From leaving the Sword Pavilion on the flying boat to returning, and even chatting briefly at Qingtian Lake in between, the whole process took no more than three minutes.

In the world of true masters, it seemed like the concept of travel time didn't even exist.

Whenever Meng Fan took a group of tagalongs somewhere, it was always a non-stop journey, flying on his sword until his legs cramped.

"What is that little sword spirit of yours up to? It seems like quite a commotion," Elder Lin asked curiously, glancing at Meng Fan's room in the Sword Pavilion hall.

Hearing Elder Lin's question, Meng Fan's face showed a mysterious smile.

Clearly, even someone as knowledgeable as Elder Lin had never seen a Ginseng Fruit.

Back when he saw Han Qianye using a Ginseng Fruit to reconstruct a physical body for the Bixie Sword Spirit in the Sword Wraith Memory, it was indeed an extremely rare and mysterious sight.

This also showed that the enigmatic Hall of Yama was truly terrifying.

This most mysterious demonic clan in the Northern Region might also be the strongest clan.

Of course, it could also be that Han Qianye's strength alone elevated the Hall of Yama in Meng Fan's mind.

"Like I said before, Master, you'll know when the time comes," Meng Fan teased, not introducing the Ginseng Fruit to Elder Lin.

Previously, Elder Lin had tricked him, so now that he had something Elder Lin didn't know about, he wasn't going to reveal it easily.

When the time came, he would give Elder Lin a good shock.

Seeing Meng Fan's mysterious demeanor, Elder Lin shook his head and even rolled his eyes.

"However, no matter what your little sword spirit is up to, your actions this time have indeed surprised me.

I used to think you were stingy, money-grubbing, and a hoarder!

Now it seems, I underestimated you.

Although I don't recognize the spirit fruit in your room, I can sense that it's an extremely rare and precious spirit fruit.

If you consumed it, it would undoubtedly boost your cultivation level significantly in a short time.

But you actually chose not to use it yourself and gave it to your little sword spirit. This indeed makes me see you in a new light."

Elder Lin's words were not of discontent but rather filled with admiration.

When he first took Meng Fan as his disciple, this kid had repeatedly shocked him with his talent, something he had never seen in his extensive experience, truly astonishing.

But he also knew that his disciple's personality was somewhat... extreme.

Now it seemed he had misunderstood his disciple.

His disciple was more loyal and affectionate than he had imagined.

This was a good thing!

In the path of cultivation, the more one severed emotions and desires, the more likely they were to stray if they were heartless and unfeeling from the start.

"Very good, taking you as a disciple was not a mistake!" Elder Lin patted Meng Fan's shoulder and then walked towards the second floor of the Sword Pavilion.

Meng Fan felt a bit embarrassed by the praise. He had thought Elder Lin would consider it foolish to give such a precious spirit fruit to someone else.

Now it seemed, a master was indeed a master, always having a broader perspective than himself.

No, it was because he was Meng Fan's master!

He thought a bit smugly.

"Senior Brother Meng, what did Elder Lin take you out for just now?" The curious Wu Tian approached Meng Fan, asking with great curiosity.

Back at the Sword Pavilion, he felt truly uncomfortable.

Clearly, there were many gossips in the Shu Mountain Sword Sect now, but he knew nothing about them, feeling like a monkey was scratching his heart.

"If you want to know, ask Elder Lin yourself," Meng Fan replied the same way as last time.

Leaving Wu Tian on the verge of going crazy!

It was all Yang Ling's fault for kicking him out and keeping Meng Fan.

Otherwise, it would be Meng Fan racking his brains to get information from him, and he could pretend to be mysterious and not tell Meng Fan.

In this, he misunderstood Meng Fan.

Meng Fan didn't have such a strong interest in gossip; he would rather rest a bit more if he had the time.

Back in his room, Meng Fan continued his cultivation while guarding Hong Qi.

Time passed quickly when undisturbed, and in the blink of an eye, a day and night had gone by.

Hong Qi's painful cries finally ceased.

Meng Fan's face showed a smile. For Hong Qi, this suffering, though tormenting, was absolutely worth it.

At this moment, Hong Qi's spirit had completely entered the Ginseng Fruit.

The most difficult and painful process was finally over. Although there were still other steps to follow, they were all steps of happiness.

As Hong Qi's spirit fully entered the Ginseng Fruit, the fruit emitted unparalleled spiritual energy.

Now, it was no longer appropriate to call it a Ginseng Fruit; Xuantian Spirit Embryo was more fitting and accurate!

The Xuantian Spirit Embryo, originally only the size of a fist, was now slowly growing with each burst of spiritual energy.

An hour later, the Xuantian Spirit Embryo had reached a height of one meter seventy.

Then, the spirit embryo began to slowly wriggle, gradually revealing a humanoid outline.

Meng Fan frowned slightly, then waved his hand to tightly close the room's door.

He also turned around, back facing the Xuantian Spirit Embryo.

See no evil.

Undoubtedly, when the Xuantian Spirit Embryo was fully formed and Hong Qi successfully reconstructed her physical body, she would be naked.

No matter how strong the Xuantian Spirit Embryo was, it couldn't conjure clothes out of thin air.

Although Meng Fan had his back to Hong Qi's Xuantian Spirit Embryo, his eyes were still tightly closed.

To be honest, his heartbeat unknowingly sped up.

He had been careless; he should have left the room earlier, leaving Hong Qi alone inside.

Now, if he turned and left, he would inevitably see the almost fully reconstructed Hong Qi.

It was quite awkward!

He didn't know how long it had been, but it felt like a long time to Meng Fan, a torturous wait.

Finally, he heard a very familiar voice.

"Master, I succeeded."
