"Haha, Xu, Master Xu, you really love to joke... This old man... This old man really is not lying. This ti visiting the Lower Realm is just because I heard so rumors."
"The Hidden chanism Pavilion is fighting hard with the four Immortal Emperors, retreating step by step. Although not at the brink of life and death, the situation is extrely dire. It's said that as long as collaboration with Li Long can be achieved, it will be a great achievent. I happened to receive news of your appearance, Master Xu, so I hastily descended to the Lower Realm..."
Elder Lin was about to cry.
Can't we all just sit together, calmly and peacefully, and have a good conversation? Why does it have to be so terrifying?
Didn't this old man just put on a little posture? Is that really necessary?
This old man has lived for over a thousand years; Xu Fan, you're just a young man. It's no loss for you if I call you Brother Xu!
Under the eaves, one cannot help but lower their head.
You have Immortal Emperor experts backing you, Xu Fan, so this old man concedes!
If you don't like to hear Brother Xu, I'll call you Master Xu!
But could you please stop being so scary? This old man is getting old; I can't withstand such fright anymore!
At this mont, Elder Lin's heart was filled with deep regret.
What great achievent, what sure thing, it's all so simple, this old man doesn't want any of it. Whoever wants it can have it! This old man just wants to safely return to the Upper Realm as the Third Elder of the Hidden chanism Pavilion...
However, Elder Lin's wish was destined to be shattered.
No one can act smart in front of Xu Fan and leave the cri scene unscathed.
"Actually, when I first asked you this question, you should have given an answer. But I never expected that at this point, you still haven't figured out what's going on..."
Xu Fan gently shook his head, his expression still dreadfully calm, "But it doesn't really matter anymore. From the mont you decided to step onto Earth with your foolish mind, your fate was already sealed."
From Elder Lin's attitude, Xu Fan had already figured out most of the situation, and when Elder Lin revealed everything, Xu Fan was completely sure... This Elder Lin was completely used as cannon fodder by the Hidden chanism Pavilion! Everything was the Pavilion Master's sche!
To be feared by four Immortal Emperors, such a person is indeed terrifying to the extre!
Ridiculous that Elder Lin, even in death, didn't realize who truly wanted him dead.
Xia Hengzhou had his head lowered, with a hint of sadness on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.
Clearly, with Xia Hengzhou's intelligence, even though he didn't have contact with the real higher-ups of the Hidden chanism Pavilion, just from Xu Fan's few words, he could deduce a few things.
"No! Master Xu, Xu Fan, you can't kill !"
Elder Lin looked terrified, reaching a mont of certain death, and unexpectedly, he did not beg for rcy but instead threatened Xu Fan.
Xu Fan stepped forward lightly, slightly raising his eyebrows, "Oh? Why can't I kill you?"
Elder Lin trembled with fear, his voice changed tone, yet he desperately tried to act calm, "This old man is an Immortal Venerable expert, this old man is the Third Elder of the Hidden chanism Pavilion... If you kill , you offend the Hidden chanism Pavilion and go against it, the Pavilion Master will seek justice for ..."
Xu Fan took another step forward, approaching again, with a touch of compassion in his voice, "Hidden chanism Pavilion's Third Elder? If I'm not mistaken, you've been the Third Elder of the Hidden chanism Pavilion for probably over a thousand years, right?"
Like a little white rabbit facing a tiger, Elder Lin kept retreating, yet he continued to pretend to be calm, "Indeed, this old man joined the Hidden chanism Pavilion at its inception. Over the years, I've made great contributions to it. If you kill , the Hidden chanism Pavilion will be at odds with you endlessly..."
"Endlessly at odds?" Xu Fan shook his head, ignoring Elder Lin's pale threats, with an increasingly apparent feeling of pity in his voice, "A powerless Third Elder who only knows how to play mind gas and power tricks, with no use at all, might have been tolerated ordinarily, but now the Hidden chanism Pavilion is at the brink of life and death; how can it allow a useless person to sit in the position of the Third Elder?"
"Would the Hidden chanism Pavilion be at odds endlessly because of your death? Elder Lin, at this point, don't you realize the one who truly wants you dead is not , but the Hidden chanism Pavilion! It's your Pavilion Master!"
Elder Lin shuddered.
In an instant, Elder Lin seed to have a flash of lightning cut through his mind, and the questions he previously struggled to understand suddenly beca clear.
No wonder, when I had just learned about the collaboration between Hidden chanism Pavilion and Li Long, considered a great achievent, Xu Fan's appearance was imdiately brought to my attention.
No wonder, even though it was deed a great achievent, no one competed for the credit, and I was the only one who descended to the Lower Realm.
No wonder, even the mortal enemies who usually disagree with showed no fear when they heard I descended to the Lower Realm to compete for credit, instead sneering coldly.
In reality, the one who truly wanted dead was the Pavilion Master!
How can this be?
Elder Lin's heart was filled with indescribable sorrow and anger!
Even if Elder Lin had been domineering, he had never betrayed the Hidden chanism Pavilion, nor had he done anything detrintal to it. Descending to the Lower Realm was ant to alleviate the crisis for the Hidden chanism Pavilion.
But the Pavilion Master wants dead!
All of this seems reasonable and inevitable.
The Hidden chanism Pavilion never keeps useless people. Although I am an Immortal Venerable Rank expert, after years of arrogance, my combat power has long fallen, and the title of Immortal Venerable is just pretense.
Killing the Third Elder without reason would surely cause unrest within the Hidden chanism Pavilion.
And if this Third Elder ran to the Lower Realm and died at the hands of Li Long, it would be more easily accepted.
No!
The Hidden chanism Pavilion is in a dire situation and wouldn't want to make new enemies, so it wouldn't offend Li Long even without collaboration!
In other words... my descent to the Lower Realm was because of collusion with the four Immortal Emperors to intentionally sabotage the Hidden chanism Pavilion's collaboration with Li Long, becoming a villain through the ages, dying insignificantly, dying with joy!
With this thought, Elder Lin felt dizzy, unable to sustain himself, and collapsed to the ground.
Xia Hengzhou's face was also pale, but unlike Elder Lin, Xia Hengzhou's eyes were filled with a chilling coldness.
Xu Fan took steps again, walking towards Elder Lin step by step.
Killing not just the body but the spirit; since the spirit is killed, next cos the body.
"Elder Lin, since the outco is already determined, you still can choose the way it ends."
"I can give you two options: the first, die at the hands of an Immortal Emperor expert. The second option, fight in a duel; if you win, I'll let you go safely."
Clearly, Xu Fan fell into one of his little quirks again... Thrilled by the hunt!
Immortal Venerable Level experts, fighting them must feel extraordinary!
