The Master of the Violet Moon Peak and a female elder than ranked fifth in the Reincarnation Sect; she was a total legend. She had become a Half Heavenly Lord a thousand years in the past and her power was unpredictable. Besides, she was especially known for her fiery temper.
Chen Fan was pretty grateful to this female elder. After all, during the three years Shenxi cultivated, she was the one who protected Xiao Mang.
“Sure.”
Chen Fan nodded.
The two of them went to a platform on the Violet Moon Peak that was seventy-three thousand feet tall. This platform was a hundred feet large and was empty. There was only an old tree and a female cultivator who was sitting under it.
Chen Fan walked up.
He found that Elder Yuelon looked very young and didn’t seem like an old woman who had lived thousands of years.
She looked gorgeous. Her hair was long like a waterfall and her skin was fair. She was even letting out beams of light like an amber. Chen Fan narrowed his eyes. He knew this was because her body didn’t have a spec of impurities; it was also the sign that it would turn into a Nascent Soul Body soon. The energy inside her body was also faint.
She was like a baby.
Elder Yuelon was only half a step away from becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
“Sit.”
Elder Yuelon pointed and asked Chen Fan to sit.
Chen Fan then sat with his legs crossed. He didn’t look like he was facing a Heavenly Lord who was about to become a Nascent Soul Cultivator, but more like talking to a friend.
“Hm.”
Hua Nonyin stood aside and was a bit discontent.
Her Master was an elder that ranked fifth in the Reincarnation Sect, and even the leaders of the Heavenly Lord Families and Sect Masters of the Heavenly Sects had to be respectful. Chen Fan was only a Connate Cultivator, but he could sit there with her? Hua Nonyin’s impression of Chen Fan immediately became worse.
Elder Yuelon didn’t care about this. She said slowly, “Shenxi told me about you. You defeated the Ancient Demons and protected the two of them. The Reincarnation Sect owes you a favor.”
“No,” Chen Fan said, “Xiao Mang is my sister. I had to do that to save her. I should thank you for protecting Xiao Mang in the last three years instead. I’ll pay you back in the future.”
Pfft.
Hua Nonyin almost burst into laughter.
This was like a beggar telling the richest man in the country that he would return the favor one day. People would only laugh after hearing this. Even if a beggar paid all of his dues back, the amount would only be a minuscule fraction for a billionaire.
“No,” Elder Yuelon said calmly, “Xiao Mang is the future Goddess of our sect. You did us a favor by saving her life, so you don’t have to pay us back.”
Chen Fan remained silent.
Elder Yuelon continued, “I’ve already talked to the Ghost Underworld Sect. Their Sect Master said they wouldn’t do anything to you. The Grand Elder of the Demon-suppressing Heavenly Sect also told me they would just let it go. In the last few days, the Gongsun family, the Heavenly Jade Institute… I’ve contacted all of them. Don’t worry about them.”
Chen Fan frowned.
“This matter has been dealt with. I don’t want you to make any more trouble for Xiao Mang.
“There are things I can do for you, but there are some people I can’t deal with. I’ll give you a Heavenly Book that belonged to our former Heavenly Lord. It recorded everything he learned in his entire life. You can establish a sect with this book. Our Sect Master also agreed to let you choose any two Spirit Treasures in Treasure Pavilion, even Quasi-Heavenly Treasures, and we’ll protect you once. These are the compensations we offer you…” Elder Yuelon said.
Hua Nonyin’s eyes popped out.
She realized how much Elder Yuelon had done to appease the Heavenly Sects. She even offered Chen Fan a Heavenly Book, two Quasi-Heavenly Treasures and protection. Those would have been too much for any other sects.
That one-time protection was even like a death-free token.
After hearing what she said, Chen Fan became less respectful and he sat upright as he stared at Elder Yuelon.
“What do you mean?”
“Nothing, I just want to thank you for saving Xiao Mang,” Yuelon said.
“Xiao Mang is my sister. Why does the Reincarnation Sect have to thank me for saving her?” Chen Fan said calmly.
“Young man, do you really want me to tell it straight?” Elder Yuelon finally opened her eyes and glanced at Chen Fan. “These things are enough for us to make it up for you. Just leave. When Shenxi gets out, Xiao Mang will cultivate for a century and will have no time for guests.”
Then, she swayed her hand and closed her eyes.
Hua Nonyin got up and moved closer to walk Chen Fan out.
“Haha.”
Chen Fan sneered.
He stood up as he put his hands behind him. He looked at the storm outside and said, “I’ll remember the kindness offered by the Reincarnation Sect and I’ll return the favor. I can promise you that and I’ll do so even after ten thousand years. However, I’m going to take Xiao Mang with me after Shenxi comes out.
“I don’t need any Heavenly Book or Heavenly Treasures and I’ll deal with the Ghost Underworld Sect myself. Don’t you worry about it.”
“How dare you!”
Elder Yuelon was enraged.
Boom!
She widened her eyes and an invisible energy fell onto the platform. The floor collapsed and even Hua Nonyin turned pale.
When this elder was angry, she was even more terrifying than Feng Ziqiu.
“See if I dare or not!”
Chen Fan sneered.
He didn’t move a bit under Elder Yuelon’s terrifying energy. The images of the six fiends appeared behind him and they surrounded Chen Fan, blocking the force.
“Young people are disrespectful nowadays.”
Elder Yuelon wasn’t frightened by Chen Fan’s power. She said with a cold voice, “Xiao Mang is the future of our sect. She’ll surely become a Heavenly Lord and will help me in the Reincarnation Sect for the next ten thousand years together with Shenxi. I can’t let you take her away.”
“I’m Xiao Mang’s brother. It’s my right to take her,” Chen Fan said.
“Hm.”
Elder Yuelon became calm again. She turned around and looked up at the sky.
“Young man, do you know how vast our world is?”
Chen Fan sneered and didn’t reply.
He actually was the person who knew exactly how vast the world was, as he had stood on the top of the universe.
“Do you also know how talented Xiao Mang is? And how difficult it is to become a Nascent Soul Cultivator?” Yuelon continued.
“I’m three thousand six hundred years old and have an eighth-grade Golden Core. I’ve been half a step away from becoming a Heavenly Lord a thousand years ago, but no matter how many years I cultivate, I’m still stuck here. How many cultivators are there in the Heavenly Regions, the Barren Regions and the Fiend Sects who are stuck at the level like I am?
“Let me tell you, there are a lot and you can’t even imagine how many!
“Only a few cultivators on Planet Tianhuang have reached the Nascent Soul Level in a thousand years and there are a thousand Golden Core Cultivators in one sect. There are tons of Golden Core Perfected Cultivators on the planet, but just a small number of Nascent Soul Cultivators. This is like one in ten thousand cultivators!”
Even Hua Nonyin was surprised.
She was a peak-stage Golden Core Cultivator at the moment, but she didn’t know as much as Elder Yuelon did after all.
“It’s extremely difficult to become a Heavenly Lord! But even our Ancestral Patriarch is in awe of Xiao Mang’s talent and said she’s going to become a Nascent Soul Cultivator in a thousand years. Our sect would even trade a real Heavenly Treasure for such a potential Heavenly Lord, let alone a couple Quasi-Heavenly Treasures.
“You’ll waste Xiao Mang’s talent if I let you take her. Only in the Reincarnation Sect can Xiao Mang become a Nascent Soul Cultivator. Do you want to destroy your sister’s future?”
Elder Yuelon then turned around and looked at Chen Fan, hoping he would understand.
“Elder, you are wasting Xiao Mang’s talent,” Chen Fan said, “With her True Dragon Divine Meridians, I can help her become a Soul Formation or Void Returning Cultivator in a thousand years. She may even become a Dao Reunion Cultivator in the future. The Nascent Soul Level is nothing.”
“You’re shameless.”
Elder Yuelon was completely disappointed and she didn’t want to talk to Chen Fan anymore.
“Leave now. When Shenxi comes out, the Violet Moon Peak will be shut for a century. As for you, look out for yourself.”
Then.
Elder Yuelon swayed her hand.
The sight of Chen Fan and Hua Nonyin was blocked by mist and they couldn’t see Elder Yuelon anymore. They looked up and saw layers of arrays.
“You… Ah…”
Hua Nonyin looked at Chen Fan and shook her head.
She knew what Chen Fan said had angered Elder Yuelon. Her Master hated people who bluffed. A Connate Cultivator that looked down on Nascent Soul Cultivators was beyond arrogant.
“You have no idea how difficult it is to reach the Nascent Soul Level and how precious our gifts and protection for you are. The power of the Reincarnation Sect isn’t something your old servant and maid can compare.”
Hua Nonyin heaved a sigh.
She was disappointed about Chen Fan’s recklessness.
“You don’t know how much my promises mean to me.”
Chen Fan turned around and left.
Hua Nonyin stared at Chen Fan and thought that this young man was extremely mysterious, as if he were enveloped in mist.
He seemed to be friendly and easy-going when he was playing with the little disciples of the Violet Moon Peak, but when he was facing the elites and Elder Yuelon, he was extremely complacent. And yet, she knew what Chen Fan had missed. He would regret what he said this day in the future.
That was the promise of the Reincarnation Sect!
