Chapter 1305: Gaining fame in his own way
“It seems like you really messed with the disciples from those righteous sects, didn’t you?”
Lin Fan couldn’t help revealing a faint smile when he heard this.
After all, he could tell from the tone that his master had, it wasn’t as if he was blaming him.
The Poison King even seemed a bit amused when he asked this.
What Lin Fan had done wasn’t considered going too far, but it was considering messing them up quite a bit. After all, it wasn’t just the Mount Hua Sword Sect disciples that he had created mental demons in.
It was all of the disciples of the righteous sects that he found.
He had even messed up the four elders that had been sent to protect them.
But the key thing was that they had come back without any physical harm, so it wasn’t as if the righteous sects could do anything about this. If there was physical harm, then they could demand compensation.
When it came to mental demons, it wasn’t as if this was something that could be easily proven or discussed since it would involve bringing forth the ones that were involved.
This wasn’t just a matter of compensation at that point, it was a matter of reputation.
If their disciples could gain mental demons that easily…
Well, it wasn’t a good look for the righteous sects and they had no choice but to hide this matter.
So in the end, it didn’t seem like there would be any consequences for Lin Fan on the surface.
But he knew that they would keep an eye out for him in the future and would try to get revenge for this in their own way.
Only when it came to the Heavenly Demon Sect, he was treated as a hero for what he did to the righteous sects. The righteous sects were just that hated in the Heavenly Demon Sect since they were mortal enemies.
When the rumours spread by the outer sect disciples spread, everyone started treating Lin Fan differently.
The Heavenly Demon suddenly said with a sigh, “This means that he’ll be on their Demon Hunting List in the future.”
“Is that really a problem? We’ve all been on that list before.” The Poison King said with a snort.
The Heavenly Demon said with another sigh, “It might not have been before, but you should know what value he has to our sect now. At the same time, it would mean that the other elders will start making their moves as well since they can justify it as protecting him.”
“I want to see them try.” The Poison King said with another snort, but the expression on his face showed that he thought differently.
It seemed that he was indeed a bit worried about this.
Lin Fan would have been worried about this in the past as well since he didn’t want to draw attention to himself, but it was different since he had already made up his mind.
It was only a matter of time before he would have been targeted by the four righteous sects as he gained influence in the Heavenly Demon Sect. So even if he had wanted to avoid it, it would have been impossible to hide himself.
That was why he chose to gain this fame in his own way.
It was only through this method that he would be able to set his own terms with those that would want to protect him from the four righteous sects.
It was only through proving his value that he would be able to have the initiative.
But right now, it wasn’t time for him to say anything.
“I’ll talk to them and tell them that I’ll be arranging protection for him.” The Poison King said all of a sudden.
The Heavenly Demon raised a brow to look at the Poison King, as if he was skeptical about something. But in the end, he gave a nod to show that he agreed with what the Poison King wanted to do.
The Poison King turned to look at Lin Fan before saying, “As for that territory of yours, it would be best if you didn’t visit them for now. There will surely be surveillance and until I can arrange everything, it would be dangerous to go there.”
Lin Fan couldn’t help slightly knitting his brows hearing this, but he wasn’t surprised by this since this was the obvious outcome.
But it wasn’t as if he could stay away from the Mu Empire forever.
So in the end, he would have to return since all that he cared about was there.
“Don’t worry, you’ll be able to go back soon. I’ll take care of everything right away.” The Poison King suddenly said with a smile as if he could read Lin Fan’s mind.
Lin Fan just gave a simple nod in response.
The Heavenly Demon on the other hand seemed to have something else to say, “There’s something that I need you to do for me.”
Lin Fan couldn’t help being caught off guard by the Heavenly Demon suddenly asking this, but he was curious what the Heavenly Demon was asking of him.
Instead of continuing to look at Lin Fan, the Heavenly Demon suddenly turned to look at Ye Qing Huan before saying, “It’s time for you to finish it.”
Ye Qing Huan couldn’t help slightly knitting her brows when she heard this, but it didn’t seem like she was agreeing with what the Heavenly Demon was saying.
Even so, the Heavenly Demon said with a sigh, “You can’t keep stalling this. This is something that you have to do eventually and now is the best time since we can have him help you.”
Ye Qing Huan still didn’t seem like she was convinced by the Heavenly Demon.
“What is it that you need help with?” Lin Fan suddenly asked, cutting in the middle.
Ye Qing Huan looked at the Heavenly Demon as if she was threatening him to keep it a secret, but the Heavenly Demon said, “She’s been holding back her breakthrough for some time now.”
Lin Fan was surprised to hear this since he never sensed anything like this from Ye Qing Huan.
But if it was the Heavenly Demon that said this…
It seemed that Ye Qing Huan’s cultivation was much deeper than Lin Fan thought since she was able to hide all of this from him.
However, Lin Fan also felt guilty since he knew that she had to be doing this because of him. It was all because he had suddenly come to the Heavenly Demon Sect…and she had been forcing herself to be with him.
Even though he had his own position in the Heavenly Demon Sect, she had always come to see him every day.
She had even been the first one to come see him after he came back with the outer sect disciples.
With how quickly she had found him and his group, it was almost as if she had some kind of tracking device on him.
With how she kept making herself available, it was clear that she had to be holding something else back for him.
“What can I do for you?” Lin Fan said in response.
He didn’t even ask if it was possible for him to help, he was just determined to help the Heavenly Demon with whatever he asked for. It was as if he and the Heavenly Demon didn’t care what Ye Qing Huan thought.
Though it wasn’t because they were disrespecting her, it was just that they knew that there was no point in asking her since she would only say one thing.
This was evident by the way that she glared at her master.
The Heavenly Demon just said, “There are a few things that I need your help preparing with your new found powers. I’ll give you the list later.”
With the way that he said this, it seemed that there was something else that he was asking from Lin Fan.
Lin Fan naturally knew what the Heavenly Demon was asking, so he turned to look at Ye Qing Huan. When Ye Qing Huan saw him turning to look at her like this, there was an awkward expression that appeared on her face since she didn’t expect this.
Lin Fan just asked with a stern look, “Why?”
“I just don’t want the gap to be that high between us.”
Lin Fan couldn’t help revealing a bitter smile when he heard this.
He didn’t think that Ye Qing Huan was looking down on him, it was just a fact that she was stating.
But he still said, “Who said that the gap would be that high? Once everything is arranged, I’ll be breaking through too.”
This wasn’t something that he was certain of, but it was the case when he usually absorbed another item made of pure elemental energy.
Ye Qing Huan seemed like she hadn’t thought of this before, but then she gave a nod as she said, “Alright.”
The Heavenly Demon couldn’t help shaking his head when he saw his disciple acting this way.
After all, he had done all that he could to convince her to break through and she wouldn’t budge at all.
Yet just a few simple words from Lin Fan had been enough to convince her to do it.
It really seemed like she no longer cared about her old master and only cared about her new lover…
Still, at least he had been able to convince her to go through with this.
This was an important one since…it would mean that she would be stepping into the realm of a true expert of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
