Chapter 249: Chapter 249: The New Sect Master of Medicine Sect

Medicine Sect.

Chen Fan slowly opened his eyes, his aura had already returned to its peak.

"As Blood Blade is a colossal force overseas, I wonder how it compares to the Capital’s Mu Family, and I also wonder what my current strength amounts to in the eyes of the Mu Family."

"Although I am eager to go to the Capital and find Qingyan, the Capital is full of masters, so I must not be careless, to be on the safe side, I should wait until I break through to the Golden Core Realm before heading to the Capital."

Initially, Mu Tianxiong and Chen Fan had agreed on a one-year timeframe, and now more than half a year had passed, giving Chen Fan the strength of the mid-stage Foundation Establishment peak, the remaining time should be enough for him to find a way to break through to the Golden Core Realm.

"However, this battle has made me realize that I have been a bit too eager to advance recently, resulting in an unstable foundation, luckily the four Spiritual Medicines were absorbed by the Heavenly Creation Pearl."

During the battle, Chen Fan had noticed a feeling of emptiness in his Spiritual Power, a sign of an unstable foundation.

He had used the Thousand-Year Elixir to break through to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment peak in a very short period of time and was thinking of breaking through again without having stabilized it first; even if he succeeded, it would leave significant hidden dangers for his future advancement.

"I still have plenty of time, I should solidify my foundation first so that in the future I have the opportunity to challenge even higher realms."

"It’s also been long enough since I’ve been out; it’s time to head back to Jiangbei."

Without giving it much more thought, Chen Fan stood up and walked out into the courtyard.

Yang Tianzhen and Yang Wanli were sitting on stone benches in the courtyard.

Seeing Chen Fan come out, Yang Tianzhen hurried over with excitement and said, "Master Chen, I am a big fan, could you give me an autograph?"

Chen Fan looked at Yang Tianzhen with suspicion, "What are you going on about?"

Yang Tianzhen said, "Ah, you don’t know, while you were recovering these past two days, the name Master Chen has already spread overseas, now you are number one on the Heavenly List!"

She then relayed all the news about Master Chen from overseas over the past two days.

After listening, Chen Fan chuckled helplessly and said, "It’s a good thing that it’s Master Chen that became famous, not Chen Fan, otherwise it would definitely lead to a lot of trouble."

He was a low-key person and understood the dangers that can come with standing out too much, so he did not wish to draw too much attention.

"Next time something like this happens, it might be better to use an alias, to have a proxy identity to shield me from some trouble."

Yang Tianzhen then said, "Oh, also, the Sect Master asked for you to come see him once you were out, it seems there is something important that he wants to announce."

Chen Fan nodded, "Let’s go together."

The three of them headed towards the Medicine Sect’s Council Hall.

On the way, Chen Fan suddenly remembered something and turned his head to ask Yang Tianzhen, "When the people from Blood Blade set up the Poison Formation, logically, ordinary people affected by it should have collapsed, but how come you were able to run over and tell me to escape?"

Yang Tianzhen’s facial expression stiffened, and she gave a perfunctory response, "Maybe... it’s because my constitution is special, and the Poison Formation didn’t work on me."

...

Medicine Sect Council Hall.

Qin Xiu, the Great Elder, the Second Elder, and a group of Medicine Sect experts above the Transformation Realm were all gathered together, the atmosphere solemn.

The Great Elder looked at Sect Master Qin with hesitation, "Sect Master, have you really made up your mind?"

Sect Master Qin stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze unwaveringly firm, "Yes, my mind is made up, if any of you have objections, you may raise them now."

The crowd murmured amongst themselves, and eventually, a Medicine Sect expert spoke up, "I agree with the Sect Master’s decision!"

The rest began to echo the sentiment in agreement.

"I also agree!"

"I agree!"

...

The Great Elder’s gaze became resolute, and then he solemnly said, "Alright, since that’s the case, I agree as well!"

At this moment, Chen Fan and two others walked in.

The entire hall suddenly fell silent.

Chen Fan swept his gaze around, looking at Qin Xiu, "Sect Master Qin, Tianzhen told me you were looking for me?"

Qin Xiu, with a serious face, walked up to Chen Fan.

Chen Fan, observing Qin Xiu’s stance, felt a wave of strangeness in his heart. What was he up to? He couldn’t possibly be about to hit me, could he?

However, he saw Qin Xiu stop in front of him and bow respectfully, saying, "Master Chen, from today onwards, you are the new Sect Master of Medicine Sect. From now on, the Medicine Sect will follow Master Chen’s lead!"

Chen Fan was dumbstruck and hurriedly helped Qin Xiu to his feet, "Sect Master Qin, what are you doing? When did I ever say I wanted to be your Medicine Sect’s Sect Master?"

Qin Xiu said earnestly, "Master Chen, this is a unanimous decision made by all members of the Medicine Sect. If not for you, our Medicine Sect would likely have been obliterated by Blood Blade. Given the ruthlessness of Blood Blade, none of the Medicine Sect would have survived. Moreover, you have generously imparted precious Pill Refinement knowledge to us. You are fully deserving of being the Sect Master of Medicine Sect!"

The Great Elder, Second Elder, and the rest of the Medicine Sect’s members echoed in agreement.

Chen Fan’s face filled with astonishment, "Sect Master Qin, I..."

Qin Xiu interrupted him, "Master Chen, this matter is settled. Whether you agree or not, the Medicine Sect will follow your commands from now on."

He walked over to the table and began opening the six brocade boxes one after another, and instantly, the entire hall was filled with a dense spiritual energy.

"These are six of the Medicine Sect’s cherished Thousand-Year Elixirs. From today, they are at Sect Master Chen’s disposal."

Upon seeing those six Thousand-Year Elixirs, Chen Fan’s eyes immediately lit up, and he suddenly found himself less willing to reject the position of Sect Master of the Medicine Sect.

He glanced at Qin Xiu and said, "This... doesn’t feel quite right."

Qin Xiu replied, "Sect Master Chen, what’s wrong with it? The entire Medicine Sect is yours now. However you wish to deal with these Spiritual Medicines, we have no objections."

After pondering for a moment, Chen Fan then said, "Since you all have made up your minds, I find it hard to refuse. These Thousand-Year Elixirs are indeed very useful to me, so I won’t be polite with you."

"However, I’m not adept at leading a Sect, and I don’t have time to stay at the Medicine Sect, so you should continue to be the Sect Master. But if the Medicine Sect ever faces any difficulties, I will certainly lend a hand. How about that?"

Qin Xiu thought for a moment and then said, "The decision to make you the Sect Master of Medicine Sect is final and won’t change. However, I can manage the Medicine Sect on behalf of Sect Master Chen. You don’t need to deal with any of the Sect’s affairs, and you have the right to utilize all its resources. This is our way of repaying you; there’s no need for you to refuse."

Chen Fan, wearing a look of resignation, could only agree, "Alright then, I suppose I’ll just hold a nominal position in the Medicine Sect."

Seeing Chen Fan’s agreement, a smile appeared on Qin Xiu’s face as he bowed with his hands clasped, "With Sect Master Chen leading the Medicine Sect in the future, we will surely reach new heights!"

The Great Elder clasped his hands, "Sect Master Chen is mighty!"

The members of the Medicine Sect echoed in unison, "Sect Master Chen is mighty!"

Chen Fan smiled back at the crowd, looking somewhat embarrassed.

Who would have thought that his visit overseas would result in him unexpectedly becoming the Sect Master of the Medicine Sect? It was quite beyond his expectations.

At that moment, Qin Xiu took out a bank card and handed it to Chen Fan.

Chen Fan looked puzzled, "What’s this?"
