Later that night, in the Love Sect's main hall.
All of the elders were gathered along with the girls of Lin Fan's harem.
These were all of the important mbers of the Love Sect that had been gathered.
As for the reason, they were here to discuss their sect recruitnt. They were here to discuss what had gone well and what they could improve on for next ti.
After all, it wasn't as if this was the only sect recruitnt that they would hold.
They would also recruit disciples in the future, so it was better to be prepared than not at all.
Senior Brother Ying was the one that led this eting as he gave a detailed report on everything that had happened during the sect recruitnt. From ti to ti, there would be a few people that chid in about certain details.
Overall though, it seed like everyone agreed that the sect recruitnt had been a success.
They were very happy with the disciples that had been recruited and how they had shown off the might of the Love Sect to the other sects.
After a certain point, it even beca a contest of bragging about the disciples that they had taken under them.
They were all trying to make themselves look the best.
But there were so that could see that Lin Fan had been silent the entire ti, so they couldn't help wondering what he was thinking of. At the sa ti, they felt a bit worried seeing the frown that was on his face.
Finally, Mu Bao Bao cut the bragging match off by saying, "What's wrong?"
When they heard this, all of the elders turned to look at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan who had been lost in thought was pulled out of it by Mu Bao Bao's question and he was surprised to see everyone looking at him.
Then with a sigh, he said, "Was it that obvious?"
A few of the elders couldn't help feeling awkward when hearing this since they had been too busy with their own bragging that they hadn't noticed this at all. It was only when Mu Bao Bao ntioned it that they finally noticed this.
But they were people that could adapt…or it could be said that their faces were thick.
So they acted like they knew all along and waited for Lin Fan to answer.
With another sigh, Lin Fan said, "It isn't that anything is wrong, it's just that…"
His voice trailed off like he wasn't sure if he should say anything or not.
The rest of them just waited for him since they trusted his judgent.
If he wasn't sure he should say it or not, he should have a valid reason for this.
It was better to wait for him to think it through instead of rushing him to say it.
In the end, Lin Fan gave another sigh and said, "The box that we received from the Long Life Sect…"
Once again, his voice trailed off, but the reactions that everyone had this ti was different.
It was clear that there was sothing special about the box. They all knew that from the mont that Lin Fan had gone off alone with this box.
But now, it seed that it was even more amazing than they thought.
Lin Fan took a deep breath and said, "There's a map and a key for a ruins realm in that box."
The mont that he said this, all of them revealed shocked looks like they couldn't believe what he had said.
They looked at him as if they were waiting for him to say more.
It was almost as if they were waiting for him to tell them that this was a joke.
But there was nothing more for Lin Fan to say since this was it.
It was a set of ruins!
This was anything but simple.
After all, these ruins were where experts of the past left their inheritances when they died.
So if they were able to explore these ruins and obtain the inheritance of the one who left these ruins, there was no doubt that their Love Sect would greatly benefit.
But at the sa ti, they couldn't help knitting their brows.
They knew that ruins weren't as simple as they seed.
After all, there would be danger associated with these ruins. There would be traps left behind to stop bandits, there would be trials that the owner of the ruins left behind to test for a successor, and all kinds of other dangers that they couldn't expect.
So they would have to be prepared if they wanted to explore these ruins.
After a long silence, there were many questions that were suddenly asked.
"Who do the ruins belong to?"
"Where are these ruins?"
"Is there a limit to how many people we can bring?"
Lin Fan didn't answer any of these questions and slowly took out the two items that he had received from the box. He waved his hand for soone to bring a table over before putting them down on that table for everyone to see.
The elders quickly gathered around the table and looked at the two items.
The one that attracted more attention was the map.
They all circled around the map and tried to figure out where it was leading them.
There were less people that gathered around the token, but there were still people that gathered around it.
In the end, it was the ones that gathered around the token that spoke first.
It was Ming Xin who asked, "Do you know what this 'Feng' character stands for?"
Lin Fan gave a nod before saying, "It's the owner of the ruins, his na is Feng Yu."
"Feng Yu?" Ming Xin repeated before knitting her brows.
It was as if she was trying to find sothing in her mind.
After a long ti, she shook her head and said, "I don't know this person at all." Then with a sigh, she continued, "I'll go and do so research, but don't get your hopes up. This person might not even be soone from our Mu Empire."
Lin Fan just gave a simple nod in response.
Lin Fan felt assured in leaving this matter to her, so he wouldn't stick my nose in.
After all, too many cooks in the kitchen was not good.
So he turned my attention to the group that was looking over the map.
It didn't seem like any of them were making any progress with this map until one of the elders suddenly said, "Wait, isn't this…"
When he said this, all of the others all looked at him and waited for him to finish his thought.
After a while, that elder said, "That's right! It really is that place!"
Hearing this, so of the other elders couldn't take it anymore and urged him to speak.
Lin Fan also was curious about this, so he asked, "What do you know about this?"
That elder was one of the elders from the Hidden Dragon Sect.
When he heard that it was Lin Fan who asked him this, he couldn't help being scared.
After all, in his eyes, Lin Fan was their terrifying sect master who still controlled their lives.
He cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to the sect master, this elder has so ideas as to where this map is pointing to."
Lin Fan couldn't stop his lips from twitching when he saw this before he waved his hand and said, "Just speak casually, there's no need to be this formal."
The elder was surprised, but he slowly brought his hands down and said, "Yes, sect master."
He turned back to the map and pulled out another map that he placed beside it.
When they compared the two, they found that there was a 90% similarity between the two of them. There were only a few places that were different between the two maps.
Lin Fan quickly asked, "What is this? Where is this place referring to?"
The elder said, "When I was younger, I went into the wilderness to hunt for spirit beasts. This is the map that I personally drew on that journey."
Lin Fan knitted his brows slightly as he slowly said, "Then you're saying that…these ruins are in the wilderness?"
The elder slowly gave a nod without saying anything.
Lin Fan nodded too before saying, "Alright, it seems that these ruins are closer than we thought."
Then he looked at the rest of the elders and asked, "So, should we go or not?"
None of the elders gave an answer when they heard this.
This was also the question that they had been considering the entire ti.
After all, they knew that it was a sensitive ti for their Love Sect and any rash moves would be dangerous for them.
During this ti where they were watched, there was no doubt that people would be suspicious if they suddenly headed into the wilderness.
Even if Dungeon City was near the border, this sudden trip into the wilderness would draw the suspicion of many people.
The more people that were suspicious of this, the more people that would follow them.
The more people that followed them, the more likely that it would be discovered that they had found so ruins.
Once that happened, there was no doubt that they would have to fight others over these ruins.
This was the last thing that they wanted.
If they waited so ti for the heat to die down…then that would be the best choice.
But Lin Fan said, "Let's go for it. There's nothing for us to lose."
