A tall and a short young man led the way. After passing through a winding staircase and then a stone gate, they finally arrived at an open area!
The area was surrounded by mountain walls on all sides, resembling a basin but extraordinarily massive, encircled by a grove of trees leaving only a small path exposed!
The trees were laden with snow, and the ground was a vast expanse of white, evoking a sense of arriving at a mystical fairyland!
Afterwards, with the guidance of the two young n, Lin Fan walked through the path amidst the woods and finally arrived in front of a grand and luxurious building!
A tall wall encircled several palaces, and from where Lin Fan stood, the palace at the center was particularly prominent, as grand as the Taihe Palace in the Forbidden City.
In front of Lin Fan was a towering gate, entirely made of cyan stones, at least seven or eight ters tall. Standing beneath the gate gave people a sense of oppression, as if being overlooked by a supre master.
The three large characters "Celestial Tower" were carved in a flamboyant and elegant style on the gate, looking both arrogant and majestic in their age-old appearance. For a sect like this, all buildings were handmade, without a trace of modern technology. The ability to construct such a grand and luxurious manor by hand is a testant to the exceptional brilliance of ancient Huaxia artisans!
"Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother!"
The two disciples at the gate greeted the tall and short young n respectfully after seeing them.
"Report to the Sect Leader, Lin Fan has arrived!" the tall young man imdiately said.
The two disciples were startled upon hearing it was Lin Fan. The matter of Lin Fan snatching the "sheepskin scroll" from the Celestial Tower's Master Uncle was no secret within the Celestial Tower, and at that mont, seeing Lin Fan's presence filled their gazes with hostility!
However, Lin Fan's face showed no sign of worry, retaining an air of calmness with a hint of an amused smile hanging at the corner of his mouth!
As the two disciples went back to report to the Sect Leader, Lin Fan, along with the tall and short young n, strode through the gate and entered!
Though snow was still falling, there wasn't much accumulation within the sect grounds of Celestial Tower, indicating it had been swept already; the ground was very smooth, resembling a mirror once covered with a thin layer of snow. Fortunately, Lin Fan's footing was stable, or else he would have slipped!
Soon after, Lin Fan finally arrived in front of the main hall of Celestial Tower, a grand and imposing palace with two stone pillars standing at the entrance, engraved with the sect's ancestral teachings.
Swish, swish~
Before long, a group of disciples suddenly rushed out from within the palace, forming two lines by the entrance, surrounding Lin Fan. The gaze they cast upon Lin Fan sparkled coldly, like a pack of wolves eyeing their prey, ready to strike at a mont's notice!
Subsequently, a middle-aged man in a gray long robe, with hair interspersed with black and white twisted up into a bun, and a beard on his chin, strode out from the palace—it was the elder in a gray robe who had vied for the "sheepskin scroll" with Lin Fan!
And this man was none other than the Grand Elder of Celestial Tower, Gu Youming!
"You audacious brat, you really dare co to my Celestial Tower, utterly insolent. Today, I will use your blood to wash away my disgrace!"
Gu Youming, with eyes ablaze, roared towards Lin Fan!
"Old man, I didn't expect to see you here again. Nice to et you, hope that injury of yours is healed?" Lin Fan shrugged, spoke cheerfully.
In the previous dispute over the "sheepskin scroll", Gu Youming indeed suffered injuries, but coming from Lin Fan, those words were a bald insult, causing Gu Youming's expression to instantly darken!
"Such an arrogant brat, since you've co delivering your life, I will teach you on behalf of your father what it ans to respect the elderly and care for the young!" Gu Youming coldly rebuked.
Upon hearing "father", a flicker of a sinister gleam flashed swiftly in Lin Fan's eyes, though fleeting, it was strikingly glaring!
Lin Fan had never seen his parents since childhood, so his parents have always been his greatest taboo!
"So people must pay for their words!"
Lin Fan shouted sternly, without another word, he began stepping towards Gu Youming!
"What do you think you're doing?" Gu Youming was slightly taken aback!
"Weren't you planning to teach a lesson? Heh, then I'll obediently approach for you to teach." Lin Fan smiled lazily.
Tap tap tap~
Footsteps echoed, and in a short while, Lin Fan had already closed in on Gu Youming.
Lin Fan stood calmly in front of Gu Youming without making any move, yet induced a pressure emanating from the depths of his soul, as if standing under a giant, utterly insignificant like a speck of dust!
"Courting death!"
Gu Youming shouted coldly, raising his hand to strike towards Lin Fan's head, stirring a gust of robes fluttering!
Lin Fan faintly smiled, barely moving, clenched his hand into a fist and swung at Gu Youming's hand!
Boom~
The sound of a huge explosion echoed!
Upon seeing the collision of the fist and palm, a burst of air currents spread out. Lin Fan slightly stepped back, while Gu Youming stumbled back three steps!
Wow wow wow~
For a brief mont, everyone was stunned by the scene before their eyes!
The Grand Elder of Celestial Tower couldn't match a young man? Without witnessing it personally, it's hard for the disciples present to even imagine!
"Master Uncle, are you alright?"
The tall and short young n imdiately rushed before Gu Youming, asking worriedly.
At this mont, Gu Youming looked at Lin Fan with newfound seriousness. Although he didn't unleash his full strength in that last palm strike, Lin Fan too didn't exert his all, yet still managed to push him back three steps; how could Gu Youming not be shocked!
"Everyone listen up, surround this arrogant brat for imdiately!" Gu Youming commanded.
How could these disciples dare hesitate, they imdiately ford a circle, enclosing Lin Fan, each with a gloomy visage, the atmosphere tense and confrontational!
Nevertheless, apart from the deepening smirk at the corner of his mouth, Lin Fan showed no hint of panic, chuckling softly, "What's this? Can't win in a single combat, so you resort to gang up on ? Is this how you Celestial Tower handle things? If that's the case, then I'm disappointed. You Celestial Tower are simply disgracing the 'Second Tower' title!"
"Brat! Cease your arrogant words!"
"You damn bastard! Daring to defa my Celestial Tower, let's attack him together, finish him off!"
"This brat actually dares to insult my Celestial Tower, today I must give him a good lesson!"
The group of disciples imdiately cursed aloud!
In contrast, Gu Youming revealed so surprise on his face. It's one thing to know of Celestial Tower, but rely a few in the Martial World, especially among the younger folks, are aware of the "Second Tower" title, which is a closely guarded secret in the Martial World!
