After dealing with these matters, Xu Fan dismissed the ten thousand monks, and was not worried about Yunzhi and Yuanyuan escaping, directly arranging for the two to start work.
Not to ntion that the two have spent most of their lives in the Buddhist Sect, even if they could abandon these things and want to flee, but with Pu Xian presiding over the Buddhist Sect, even if they ran away, where could they go?
Offend a Kai Yang Realm strongman, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, it is certain death!
The ten thousand monks dispersed in groups, still showing a hint of excitent in their eyes. Everything that happened today was truly incredible—a re seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy beca the host of the Buddhist Sect!
However, everything seed utterly reasonable. Today, they witnessed Xu Fan create many miracles, which made the shock of becoming the host pale in comparison.
Yet Xu Fan, at this mont, was walking with Pu Xian towards a place within the Buddhist Sect.
In fact, Xu Fan entered the Buddhist Sect solely to hone himself through battles, without considering much else. When soldiers co, they'll block them; when water cos, they'll use earthen walls. As for the position of host, he hadn't even thought about it.
But who could have expected that Pu Xian's sudden appearance beca the biggest variable? A Kai Yang Realm super strongman, his re presence was overwhelming enough to crush everything!
Frankly speaking, if Pu Xian were determined to kill Xu Fan today, then even if Xu Fan used all his tactics, there was a high likelihood of him falling here! A Kai Yang Realm strongman was just too powerful! Xu Fan, currently in the Vajra Realm, was not on the sa level at all!
Though Xu Fan seed lucky that Pu Xian did not kill wantonly and even appointed him as the Buddhist Sect host, Xu Fan remained clear-headed, not blinded by the temporary victory before him.
Xu Fan always rembered one thing clearly: the real controller of everyone's destiny today was Pu Xian!
Everything might have already been planned by Pu Xian in his mind, like an invisible hand controlling everything in the shadows!
Yet the true intention behind Pu Xian appointing Xu Fan as the Buddhist Sect host... what was it?
Xu Fan did not know either.
Pu Xian, this person, was simply too terrifying! On the surface, he seed harmless, almost like a good-natured pushover; sotis he would even resemble a spiritual charlatan, seriously deluding the ten thousand monks with talk of Buddha's son.
But in reality?
A strongman of Pu Xian's level, let alone ordinary people, even cultivators might appear as re ants in Pu Xian's eyes! Being ants, what does their life or death have to do with others?
Precisely because Xu Fan saw through this point, he found Pu Xian even more terrifying!
However, Xu Fan did not show excessive caution, walking alongside Pu Xian generously without any deliberate defense or precaution.
In front of a Kai Yang Realm strongman, it's not very aningful for Xu Fan to be overly cautious. If Pu Xian really wanted to make a move against Xu Fan, he wouldn't have any room to resist! Rather than deliberate precaution, it's better to be open and direct.
Moreover, if Pu Xian simply wanted to kill Xu Fan, he would have done it long ago! Why wait until now? After all the effort, going so far as to use the Buddha's son to convince the ten thousand monks, finally helping Xu Fan beco host—how could he suddenly turn face and kill Xu Fan?
Due to the commotion Xu Fan caused today, countless buildings collapsed along the way, creating so obstacles for their walk. But the Buddhist Sect was only so large. Over the span of a cup of tea, Xu Fan, led by Pu Xian, arrived at a secluded place.
"Host, please."
Inside the hall, under the Buddha statue, Pu Xian invited Xu Fan to sit first and then seated himself on the opposite mat. Although Pu Xian still showed respect towards Xu Fan, it was clearly much less intense than when before the ten thousand monks.
At this mont, Pu Xian's respect towards Xu Fan was more an equal peer respect, rather than a superior-subordinate relationship.
Xu Fan certainly wouldn't expect a Kai Yang Realm strongman to beco his subordinate for no reason; from the mont Pu Xian appeared, Xu Fan set the tone of their relationship as mutually beneficial!
Why did Pu Xian admire him so much? Why did he insist that Xu Fan take on the role of host?
In short, it was just about interests!
This kind of interest isn't likely to be sothing Xu Fan has now, but rather what he will possess in the future. Nonetheless, the core must be interest! Only interest could have driven Pu Xian to take these actions!
A dignified Kai Yang Realm strongman, even if bored, how could he play a aningless ga with a bunch of ants?
Thoughts flashed through his mind, but Xu Fan outwardly remained calm and composed. As long as Pu Xian didn't break the silence, Xu Fan wouldn't either; it was best to keep things unspoken.
"To humiliate without killing, and barricade the mountain—the host's plan indeed ensures the Buddhist Sect is temporarily safe. But... What are the host's plans for the future? What are your plans for the Buddhist Sect?"
Sitting on the mat, Pu Xian looked at Xu Fan with piercing gaze, which had changed from the forr gentleness to being sharp as a drawn Treasured Sword!
"You needn't stand on ceremony, Senior. From now on, I'll call you Senior, and you can call Xu Fan."
In front of ten thousand monks, Pu Xian treated Xu Fan with utmost respect, but that was in front of others! Now with just the two of them, if Xu Fan demanded Pu Xian to act respectfully, he'd be foolish!
Pu Xian said nothing, rely gazing at Xu Fan, clearly too lazy to haggle over such things, or perhaps using this to prompt Xu Fan to answer his question.
Xu Fan responded calmly, "My plan, of course, isn't to stay inside the Buddhist Sect as host, but to continually hone and improve myself through battles outside while internally blocking my relationship with the Buddhist Sect until... the day I beco a true strongman."
"As for the Buddhist Sect, for a while, it'll require Senior's diligent care and attention."
Xu Fan's aning was clear; although he indeed beca the Buddhist Sect host, he didn't really intend to stay in the temple to be a monk, even if he was the highest-ranking among them… Xu Fan needs growth, and the quickest route to growth is through life-and-death battles!
There was apparent appreciation in Pu Xian's eyes, yet it flashed briefly before returning to calmness, "I'm afraid I can't wait that long."
The Buddhist Sect? rely a ans for Pu Xian to approach Xu Fan! Despite a few emotional ties, even so, it couldn't keep Pu Xian here for long.
As a Kai Yang Realm strongman, Pu Xian's power and lifespan have been significantly extended and enhanced, yet at this level, further progress becos naturally more challenging, and Pu Xian must seek the next opportunity for advancent!
And this opportunity naturally couldn't be within the Buddhist Sect.
But no matter why, Pu Xian felt that this young boy before him might very well be the key to his future advancent!
And this was the reason and purpose behind all of Pu Xian's actions! Though Xu Fan had not fully deduced this, in certain aspects, he did inadvertently coincide.
At this mont, Xu Fan quietly raised three fingers, his gaze fixed on Pu Xian, filled with confident brilliance.
"Three years."
Upon hearing Xu Fan's answer, Pu Xian's lips finally curved into a smile.
