Chapter 255 – Meng Fan, give me an explanation!!!
Meng Fan furrowed his brows.
Elder Lin's words made a lot of sense.
Since the Limitless Sword Sect had lured them over, there must be a conspiracy.
Moreover, the Limitless Sword Sect had gone to great lengths to entangle the Shu Mountain Sword Sect and the Skyhawk Demon Sect, clearly aiming to sow discord between the two sects.
Given this, how could the Limitless Sword Sect not exploit Liu Chen's death?
What's more, the survivor from the Limitless Sword Sect was the strongest among them, someone clearly deeply scheming and adept at using underhanded tactics.
"Master, why would the Limitless Sword Sect do this?" Meng Fan asked, puzzled.
What benefit did the Limitless Sword Sect gain from inciting hatred between the Shu Mountain Sword Sect and themselves?
After all, the Limitless Sword Sect was also a leading sect of the Righteous Path!
Elder Lin pondered for a moment and then said, "Given the timing, this incident is likely related to the Taixu Sacred Realm.
If I'm not mistaken, the Kunlun Sword Sect should also be encountering similar troubles during this period.
The Limitless Sword Sect loves scheming and is adept at intrigue; they are far from honorable!
It's truly a shame that the Shu Mountain Sword Sect is on par with them..."
Hearing Elder Lin's words, Meng Fan furrowed his brows even more, as he heard a completely unfamiliar term.
"Master, what is this Taixu Sacred Realm?"
Elder Lin glanced at Meng Fan and thought for a moment before saying, "It's no harm in telling you. If the Shu Mountain Sword Sect were to head to the Taixu Sacred Realm this time, I would strive to secure a spot for you.
The Taixu Sacred Realm is actually a kind of Fortunate Place.
Like the Demon Realm you visited before, it can be considered a type of Fortunate Place.
However, the Demon Realm is situated between the Human Realm and the Monster Realm.
The Taixu Sacred Realm, on the other hand, is between the Human Realm and the Immortal Realm!
The Human Realm, Monster Realm, and Demon Realm are worlds of the same level.
The Immortal Realm is a higher-level world, and the Taixu Sacred Realm lies between the Human Realm and the Immortal Realm, making it an extremely rare Fortunate Place!
If a cultivator can enter the Taixu Sacred Realm, not only will their cultivation progress be twice as effective with half the effort, but they will also gain many other benefits.
For you, just entering the Taixu Sacred Realm once would make reaching the Condensation Pill Realm a certainty, an easy feat."
Hearing Elder Lin's explanation, Meng Fan still didn't fully understand, but he had a vague sense that the Taixu Sacred Realm was a treasure trove, greatly beneficial to cultivators.
"So, Master, you think the Limitless Sword Sect is pulling these tricks to secure a spot in the Taixu Sacred Realm?" Meng Fan asked, frowning.
"Most likely!" Elder Lin nodded and said, "The Limitless Sword Sect's actions are indeed dirtier than those of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect and the Kunlun Sword Sect.
Our three major sword sects in the Northern Region only get one spot to enter the Taixu Sacred Realm each time.
The most important thing is that this spot is not fixed, nor is it rotated; no one can say for sure!
If both the Shu Mountain Sword Sect and the Kunlun Sword Sect are entangled in troubles, then the spot to enter the Taixu Sacred Realm will most likely fall to the Limitless Sword Sect."
Upon hearing this, Meng Fan's gaze unknowingly sharpened.
He had no previous grudge against the Limitless Sword Sect, just a dislike for those who cultivated the Supreme Heartless Sword Intent.
Now, hearing Elder Lin's words, he had no favorable impression of the entire Limitless Sword Sect.
As Elder Lin said, the Limitless Sword Sect was indeed dirty.
Not worthy of being called a righteous sect!
Although Meng Fan sometimes found the Shu Mountain Sword Sect too rigid and inflexible, compared to the Limitless Sword Sect, he still thought the Shu Mountain Sword Sect was much better.
At least being inflexible meant having principles!
"In that case, it seems I have caused trouble for the Shu Mountain Sword Sect," Meng Fan said helplessly.
Elder Lin shook his head and said, "This has nothing to do with you. Even without you, the Limitless Sword Sect would find other ways to trouble the Shu Mountain Sword Sect. You shouldn't feel any pressure because you did nothing wrong; the one in the wrong is the Limitless Sword Sect!"
"But Master, you just said you are not a match for Liu Bude, the leader of the Skyhawk Demon Sect. If that old scoundrel comes looking for trouble at Shu Mountain..." Meng Fan said worriedly.
If Master could handle Liu Bude, it would be fine.
If not, wouldn't that bring a huge problem to Master?
Elder Lin laughed heartily and said, "My dear disciple, this is Shu Mountain! Our Shu Mountain Sword Sect is full of experts, not just me. If Liu Bude dares to act recklessly at Shu Mountain, the Sect Master will be the first to deal with him!"
Mentioning the Sect Master made Meng Fan even more anxious.
Who could imagine that the dignified Sect Master of Shu Mountain was actually the biggest undercover leader of the demonic path!!!
What if the Sect Master and Liu Bude colluded?
As soon as this thought crossed Meng Fan's mind, cold sweat broke out on his back.
"What's wrong with you?" Elder Lin frowned at Meng Fan, asking suspiciously, "You usually don't scare easily. How come just hearing Liu Bude's name frightens you like this?"
Meng Fan smiled wryly.
It wasn't Liu Bude who scared him.
He was afraid of the Sect Master, okay?
But he couldn't explain this to Elder Lin.
He could only say helplessly, "Liu Bude is a leader of the demon sect. Since I killed his son, it's natural to be a bit worried."
Elder Lin patted Meng Fan's shoulder and comforted him, "I was just trying to scare you earlier. The Skyhawk Demon Sect is nothing to worry about.
Liu Bude has several sons, but I only have you as my direct disciple!
Even if Liu Bude comes to Shu Mountain, I won't let him harm a single hair on your head."
After a pause, Elder Lin continued to advise, "However, you should stay at Shu Mountain for now and not leave."
"Don't worry, Master. I understand."
Meng Fan left the second floor of the Sword Pavilion and returned to his room.
Moments later, the wailing cries of Wu Tian echoed from upstairs.
That kid had killed so many people on his recent trip down the mountain, so Elder Lin naturally had to educate him properly.
After all, Elder Lin had promised Wu Tian's father to discipline Wu Tian and not let him kill anymore.
But Wu Tian not only killed people, he did it in a spree!
Thinking about how he had taught Wu Tian the Ice Heart Sword Scriptures, only for Wu Tian to turn it into a Demon Sword, Elder Lin was furious.
Elder Lin couldn't bear to hit Meng Fan, but he showed no mercy when hitting Wu Tian.
Meng Fan returned to his room and took stock of his gains. Liu Chen's storage ring indeed contained many good things.
But these items had nothing to do with the Sword Dao, so Meng Fan planned to sell them all for Spirit Stones.
He roughly calculated that his Spirit Stones should surpass eight thousand!
Once Liu Changyuan and Liu Ye Han's batch of "students" graduated and paid their tuition, he would become a millionaire.
That night, Wu Tian, with a bruised and swollen face, angrily pushed open Meng Fan's door, glaring at him furiously.
"Meng Fan, you broke your promise. Give me an explanation!!"
What do you think?
