Chapter 808: Chapter 808
"What did you just say?"
Su Qiong was taken aback; she knew Lin Fan's character well enough to know that he would never kneel and pay respects. He might come up with an excuse.
But she never expected this.
Lin Fan couldn't be bothered to come up with any excuse, directly stating that she wasn't qualified!
Lin Fan was far more arrogant than Su Qiong had imagined! ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel⸺fire.net
He was arrogantly outrageous!
"You are simply..." Su Qiong was about to explode.
"Enough, let's just talk while standing." The middle-aged woman seated in the main position spoke calmly, directly cutting off Su Qiong, preventing him from continuing.
"Master, he's gone too far..."
"Enough! Qiong'er, stand back." The middle-aged woman frowned slightly, feeling a bit displeased. Had she been spoiling this disciple too much? He actually dared to contradict her!
Seeing her master angry, Su Qiong grudgingly responded, silently stepping aside, and glaring at Lin Fan with eyes full of rage.
Lin Fan shrugged indifferently; was he really so annoying? Today was the first time he met Su Qiong, wasn't it?
"Thank you, Palace Master," Lin Fan said coolly, completely ignoring Su Qiong's glare.
Lin Fan's attitude made Su Qiong even angrier!
"I am Lan Ling, the Palace Master of Fuyao Palace! Lin Fan, you are not of the Eighth Rank Ancient Saint cultivation, right? Why did you join Fuyao Palace, and what are your intentions? Speak up now to avoid any misunderstandings later; I won't show mercy."
Lan Ling looked at Lin Fan and spoke calmly, her voice very even.
From the power Lin Fan revealed, Lan Ling estimated that Lin Fan's true cultivation was around the Second Rank Holy Emperor.
The cultivation of an Eighth Rank Ancient Saint was likely concealed with some treasure!
Such a Second Rank Holy Emperor joining Fuyao Palace surely had ulterior motives!
"Palace Master, if I say my joining Fuyao Palace is sincere, would you believe me?" Lin Fan said.
Lan Ling glanced at Lin Fan, a bit surprised.
"For the matter of the Outland Demons," Lin Fan replied.
Lan Ling raised her brows, "You know about the Outland Demons too?"
Upon hearing the Outland Demons mentioned, Su Qiong unexpectedly turned to look at Lin Fan.
She hadn't anticipated that Lin Fan also knew about the Outland Demons!
"Of course! The Outland Demons will descend upon the Divine Wind Continent in a little more than two years, right? When that time comes, the entire continent will be drenched in blood. I need ample cultivation resources to enhance my cultivation, only then can I contribute when the Outland Demons arrive!"
"I think Fuyao Palace is quite good, so I joined. But currently, it seems I have not received any good cultivation resources, so I intend to enter Fuyao Palace's Inner Sect. If nothing changes, I will have no choice but to leave Fuyao Palace and seek another path." Lin Fan stated his intentions.
He didn't hide anything.
It's straightforward; he wants cultivation resources!
Lan Ling was quite surprised; she didn't expect Lin Fan to explain .
"Why? Does the Palace Master not believe me?" Lin Fan looked at Lan Ling amusedly.
Lan Ling nodded, "I believe you; it's just this Palace finds it strange with your strength. Even if the Outland Demons come, self-preservation should be no issue, right? Moreover, you can completely find a way to leave the Divine Wind Continent and seek refuge in other planes. Why choose to remain and resist the Outland Demons?"
"If everyone flees, who will resist the Outland Demons?" Lin Fan countered, not explaining further.
Lan Ling looked deeply at Lin Fan, her eyes reflecting a touch of surprise.
She thought Lin Fan was proud and solitary, but didn't expect him to carry a sense of responsibility for the Divine Wind Continent.
"Well said; since that's the case, from now on, you can become an Inner Sect Disciple of Fuyao Palace. As for cultivation resources, Fuyao Palace has an abundance! I'm just afraid you'll never exhaust them!" Lan Ling shook her head.
Beneath Fuyao Palace, there are ninety-nine terrifying Spirit Veins, continuously producing spiritual energy.
The Inner Sect disciples cannot exhaust all the spiritual energy, much of it is wasted, merging back into the world.
Fuyao Palace has vast deposits of Xuan Stone, various herb gardens, countless spiritual medicines...
Fuyao Palace truly lacks no cultivation resources!
Outland Demons are expected to arrive in just over two years.
"Cultivation resources, I can provide them. As much as you need! But how can you guarantee loyalty to Fuyao Palace?" Lan Ling smiled at Lin Fan.
Through Lin Fan's demonstration, Lan Ling had already taken an interest in his talent.
If not for already accepting Su Qiong as a direct disciple, Lan Ling would even consider taking Lin Fan as her direct disciple.
"I can't stay in Fuyao Palace indefinitely, but I can assure you that if the Outland Demons arrive, I will stand alongside Fuyao Palace to combat them! If defeated, I am willing to sacrifice in combat against the Outland Demons. If victorious, I will depart Fuyao Palace," Lin Fan stated calmly.
"Depart? Where will you go?" Lan Ling frowned.
"Sumeru Continent, a more advanced plane!" Lin Fan replied placidly.
Lan Ling was genuinely shocked, not expecting Lin Fan to express such intentions.
Contrarily, Su Qiong sneered.
Even she didn't dare say she'd go to Sumeru Continent.
The Divine Wind Continent is a Middle Plane, while Sumeru Continent is an Advanced Plane. To enter Sumeru Continent, there are two methods: first, being invited by someone from Sumeru Continent, and second, to transcend the confines of the Divine Wind Continent's plane through extraordinary personal strength and forcibly ascend to Sumeru Continent.
For countless epochs, many have entered Sumeru Continent through invitation.
Each invitation requires a substantial expenditure of Xuan Stone, an outlay that even an entity like Fuyao Palace might struggle to afford.
As for those who transcend the Divine Wind Continent's plane boundaries through sheer strength, they are rare throughout history.
Lin Fan contemplating going to Sumeru Continent? What a colossal joke!
"Alright! It's enough to have your word, from now on, you're an official Inner Sect disciple of Fuyao Palace, and also this Palace's honorary disciple. As for cultivation methods, I won't teach you, merely granting you the status, so you can navigate Fuyao Palace more comfortably!" Lan Ling slightly nodded, consenting.
"Thank you, Palace Master," Lin Fan considered for a moment and didn't refuse.
An honorary disciple, just that, not a true disciple!
Lin Fan left the great hall.
As Lin Fan stepped out, Su Qiong couldn't contain herself and asked, "Master, why are you so considerate towards him? All these years, haven't you only taken Qiong'er as a disciple? How can you suddenly accept another honorary disciple?"
Su Qiong felt her master treated Lin Fan overly well.
She couldn't understand why her master would do such a thing.
Fuyao Palace had many talents, talents like Lin Fan weren't unheard of, but receiving such preferential treatment, Lin Fan was the first.
"Look at these materials first, then you'll understand why I've acted this way," Lan Ling said casually, raising a hand, and from the storage ring on her fingertip, a set of materials flew out.
Su Qiong instinctively raised her hand to receive them and took a look.
Her pupils contracted sharply!
"Impossible!" Su Qiong exclaimed, her voice filled with incredulity.
