Chapter 1196: Meeting the ancestor
With Lin Fan’s declarations of the Love Sect’s plans, the Love Sect disciples didn’t hold back at all.
It had been a while since they had been allowed to go out, so even if they had gained quite a bit of power from training in the Love Sect, they had never had the chance to demonstrate that power.
They were still kids even if they were cultivators.
Naturally these kids felt the need to show off.
It wasn’t just to the sects in the Mu Empire that they wanted to show off to, they wanted to show off to all of the sects in the surrounding countries as well.
At the same time, they wanted to do their part for the Love Sect by finding things in those different countries.
The Love Sect was like a home to them, so it was only natural that they would want to do their best for the Love Sect.
Half of the disciples left the next day and the only reason that the other half remained was because they had tasks in the Love Sect. But many of them made plans to head off once they took care of their matters in the Love Sect.
The elders were also busy since they had to go along with their disciples to make sure that they were alright.
As for Huang Xie and Xiao Ming, Lin Fan didn’t go himself.
Instead, he sent two members of the True Fire Squad and the Wisteria Squad to follow them.
These two members weren’t weak at all, these two were in the Nascent Soul Realm.
At the same time, they were both impressed by the cultivation levels of Huang Xie and Xiao Ming, so they were more than happy to follow the two of them. In fact, it even seemed like they were thinking about bringing them back with them to the Heavenly Demon Sect, but they didn’t because I was their master already.
However, if one of the kings of the Heavenly Demon Sect was interested in them…
For now, they just followed Huang Xie and Xiao Ming to keep them safe.
With the Love Sect empty like this, Lin Fan couldn’t help revealing an emotional smile.
It was like he was a parent whose children had left the nest for the first time.
But he knew that this was for their own benefit, so it wasn’t as if he was going to stop them.
Instead, Lin Fan was looking forward to how they would develop.
After thinking about it, Lin Fan had been planning to head back to the magic continent.
It was for no reason other than to keep developing the dungeon that had been created on the magic continent.
Right now, it was necessary to gather more resources so they could continue increasing their strength for the invasion and the fight with the four righteous sects that would follow.
The best way to do that wasn’t to look for resources on this cultivation continent. After all, the resources of the cultivation continent were controlled by the Five Great Sects, or at least the best resources were controlled by them.
Instead, he would look to the magic continent that had far less strict rules when it came to the distribution of resources.
It certainly wasn’t just because he wanted to play around as an adventurer.
But before he could return to the magic continent, Mu Bao Bao suddenly came looking for him.
“I need you to come with me to a place.”
Lin Fan was surprised to hear this since Mu Bao Bao didn’t often call on him like this.
But since she had called on him, it was his duty to follow her to see what it was that she wanted.
In the end, it turned out that she was bringing him to see their relatives.
It wasn’t just Lin Fan who was called, it was also the prime minister who was called along in the end.
Lin Fan tried to get some information from him, but it didn’t seem like the prime minister had anything for him.
When they arrived, they were both surprised by what was waiting for them.
This place that Mu Bao Bao brought them was the royal tombs of the Mu Royal Family.
Deep inside of the tomb was someone who was cultivating there.
“So you’re the kid that our Bao Bao is interested in.”
Lin Fan was surprised by the aura that came from this person, but it wasn’t as if he was overwhelmed by this aura since at this point he was already used to it. People that were at this level no longer surprised him and no longer suppressed him.
After all, he had seen people that were much stronger than him.
“Oh, it seems like you can withstand my aura at your cultivation realm. Not bad, not bad.”
Mu Bao Bao couldn’t help shaking her head with a bitter smile when she heard this.
Before this person could say anything else, Mu Bao Bao said, “This is the ancestor of our Mu Royal Family and the hidden expert of our Mu Empire. As you can tell, he is in the Soul Formation Realm, but he is only in the Low Soul Formation Realm.”
The one that was called the ancestor by Mu Bao Bao frowned when he heard this before saying, “Bao Bao, how can you introduce me like that? Even if I’m a Low Soul Formation Realm Cultivator, I’m still a Formation Realm Cultivator.”
“He’s followed by two Peak Soul Formation Realm Cultivators. If you tried to do anything to him, then you’ll be the one that suffers, great grandfather.”
“Huh?” The ancestor of the Mu Family was shocked to hear this.
Lin Fan couldn’t help looking at the ancestor of the Mu Family with a surprised and a slightly confused look. After all, this information wasn’t considered new at all.
The two squads had been in Dungeon City and the Love Sect for a while now, so it wasn’t as if this was that surprising to begin with.
But it really didn’t seem like he knew anything about this with the reaction that he had.
After a long silence, the ancestor of the Mu Family said, “It’s been a while since I’ve gone out, when did something like this happen?”
Mu Bao Bao said with a sigh, “He’s a core disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect and the disciple of two of the Eight Kings, so it’s only natural that he would have this kind of protector. The Heavenly Demon Sect even gave him our Mu Empire as his territory.”
The ancestor of the Mu Family was completely shocked when he heard this before looking at Lin Fan with a strange look.
Even the prime minister looked at Lin Fan with the same look, showing that he didn’t know anything about this.
Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile as he looked at Mu Bao Bao.
It seemed that she hadn’t told her own family anything about this…
Mu Bao Bao said with a sigh, “I tried to tell you last time when I came to report on the matter of my mother and father, but you said that you wanted to meet him before I could tell you anything.”
The ancestor of the Mu Family revealed an awkward look when he heard this before saying, “Then doesn’t that mean that our Bao Bao isn’t worthy of him now?”
Mu Bao Bao immediately glared at the ancestor of the Mu Family when she heard this, as if she wasn’t afraid of being punished by him even though she was his ancestor.
The ancestor of the Mu Family didn’t get angry when he saw Mu Bao Bao glaring at him like this, there was just an apologetic smile that appeared on his face.
It seemed that the relationship between the two of them wasn’t that bad, but Lin Fan had no idea what was happening here.
Seeing the way that Lin Fan looked at her, Mu Bao Bao explained with a sigh, “I was led to meet the ancestor after taking over as the empress, but the matter of the ancestor is a secret since he’s the final trump card of our Mu Empire. During that time, we’ve gotten along quite well since our personalities are alike.”
“Right, it’s unlike your father who only schemes all the time for that wife of his.” The ancestor of the Mu Family complained about Mu Huang during this time, but he fell silent again when he saw the glare from Mu Bao Bao.
“In short, the ancestor said that he wanted to meet you and that’s why I brought you here.” Mu Bao Bao’s voice seemed to fill with a bit of shyness at the end of her words.
It seemed that she had other intentions in bringing Lin Fan to see the ancestor of the Mu Family.
Lin Fan shook his head with a smile before saying in a respectful voice, “Greetings ancestor.”
“No.” The ancestor of the Mu Family shook his head before saying, “Call me great grandfather just like Bao Bao.”
Mu Bao Bao’s face turned a bit red when she heard this and Lin Fan couldn’t help shaking his head with another smile before repeating, “Yes, great grandfather.”
Like this, it could be said that Lin Fan had obtained the approval of Mu Bao Bao’s elders.
So if there was anything that he wanted to do in the future, he would be free to do it with their blessing.
That was the real reason that Mu Bao Bao brought him here.
