CHAPTER 40

"Could it be... Could it be that everything from yesterday... Is it all just an illusion..."

Lu Fan looked at his right hand in a daze, stretched out his fingers and moved it, everything was intact, but the sharp pain of broken bones yesterday still seemed to be there, if it was an illusion, it was too real!

"You're awake..."

Just when Lu Fan was stunned, an abrupt voice suddenly came into Lu Fan's ears, making him can't help but feel a spirit, and then turned his head to look in the direction where the voice came from.

"How does it feel?"

Elder Zhou looked at Lu Fan, who had just woken up, and a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.

"Meet Elder Zhou!"

When Lu Fan saw Elder Zhou, everything that happened yesterday slowly overlapped with the picture in his memory, that is, Elder Zhou in front of him saved himself, and his injuries were probably healed by him.

Lu Fan's heart was warm, and he struggled to get up and salute Elder Zhou, he was still a little weak now, and after standing up, a feeling of powerlessness surged all over his body, making him a little frivolous under his feet.

Elder Zhou smiled and nodded, motioning for Lu Fan to sit down.

"You kid is also a little capable, it's only been a few days since you entered the Shangqing Sect, and you have caused a few big sensations!"

Elder Zhou looked at Lu Fan, whose face was still a little pale, and said with a smile.

"Qianbu Shinei has become a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone with the results of the tenth order, and after a few days, he suddenly has the cultivation of the second layer of condensation, flirting with the sect Dan Dao Tianjiao, and he is not afraid of the inner disciples trying their best to resist, all this you have done is impressive!"

After Lu Fan heard Elder Hou Zhou's words, he touched his nose in a sneer, and a trace of self-satisfaction faintly rose in his heart...

"But!You were just an ordinary mortal boy before this, why would your cultivation skyrocket to the second layer of condensation qi out of thin air in just a few days after entering the sect?!"

A glimmer of essence flashed in Elder Zhou's eyes, and he looked at Lu Fan sharply, pretending to be serious.

Lu Fan was suddenly shocked in his heart!

"It's broken!"

On the stone platform, because he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, he knew that he was invincible and wanted to attack that Jiang Tianhai, and he was angry and exposed his cultivation in his heart, and he didn't think about the result after being discovered!

"Elder Zhou... I... I..."

Lu Fan was a little frightened in his heart at this time, the rules of the sect were strict, if the sect knew that he had stolen the pill, then the consequences would definitely be unimaginable! At the moment, there was no good excuse to prevaricate in the past, if he didn't handle it well, he might be just like Jiang Tianhai, he would be casually thrown into a corner, and he would be sentenced to death from then on!

The more Lu Fan thought about it, the more frightened he became, fine beads of sweat overflowed on his forehead, thinking of Elder Zhou's completely different attitude towards him, after gritting his teeth, there was a trace of hope in his heart, and he made up his mind!

"Elder Zhou, that's... That's because... Because I stole the elixir..."

Lu Fan lowered his head, his voice became smaller and smaller, and he could barely hear it clearly in the end.

Elder Zhou's face softened a little, in fact, he already knew from the sect master's message from the jade slip yesterday that Lu Fan stole the pill, but there was only one doubt that made him very puzzled, that is, the sect master actually sent the message himself, saying that there was no need to investigate Lu Fan's stealing of the pill.

"Lu Fan, the sect has already made up its mind about your stealing of the pill, and there is no room for ambiguity in this matter!

Elder Zhou said in a stern voice, a hint of hidden cunning flashed in his eyes.

"Also... Elder Wangzhou will give you advice!"

Lu Fan hurriedly raised his head, his face was full of excitement, if there was a chance to avoid the disaster, he would definitely hold it tightly in his hand!

Elder Zhou was very satisfied with Lu Fan's reaction, stroked his beard, and was silent and pretended to be profound, which made Lu Fan's heart anxious.

"As long as you become my disciple, those two pills should be given to you as a gift from the teacher, and the matter of stealing the pill will no longer be investigated..."

"Yes, willing, disciple willing!"

When Lu Fan heard that he could no longer hold himself accountable for stealing the pill, his heart was suddenly excited, because he had witnessed the scene that happened to Jiang Tianhai, so he didn't think about it, and quickly agreed.

"Good, good!"

Elder Zhou laughed heartily, three good words in a row and the joy in his tone made Lu Fan can't help but look sideways, and there was a strangeness in his heart.

"How... How does it feel that something isn't right?"

Lu Fan always had a feeling of being cheated in his heart, and Elder Zhou's reaction made him a little confused.

"Why don't you come and meet the master!"

Elder Zhou looked at Lu Fan's somewhat puzzled look, and was secretly happy in his heart, and then with a smile on his face, he was kind and kind.

For a moment, Lu Fan stayed where he was, as if he had seen the village chief, a warm current surged in his heart, his nose was a little sour, and his vision in front of him gradually blurred.

Lu Fan slowly walked in front of Elder Zhou, everything that Elder Zhou did for himself kept flashing in his mind, and after taking a deep breath, he knelt down on his knees and kowtowed three times!

"Disciple Lu Fan, meet the master!"

Bend your knees and kowtow three times, and the teacher's grace is as heavy as a mountain!

Elder Zhou looked at Lu Fan in front of him, thinking that when the two met for the first time, Lu Fan also knelt on the ground as he did now, perhaps since then, their master-apprentice relationship has been doomed.

"Okay, okay! Get up!"

Lu Fan slowly stood up and sat beside him obediently.

"Fan'er, the sect master has an order, when you wake up, you will go to the sect master's hall, mainly to ask about the elder token on your body at the beginning. ”

Elder Zhou frowned slightly, his expression slightly worried.

"Master, that's... So what should I say?"

Lu Fan was a little apprehensive in his heart, and when he thought of himself, he was a little timid to see the legendary Shangqing Sect Master.

"Fan'er, don't be afraid, the teacher will accompany you to the trip, whatever the sect master asks, you will say, but one thing must be remembered, you are responsible for what you say!"

Elder Zhou warned Lu Fan that although the sect master was close and gentle on weekdays, after all, he was the head of the sect, and there was absolutely no room for disrespect!

Lu Fan nodded, thinking that this sect master was not an ordinary big man, not someone who could see it if he wanted to, although he was a little timid at this time, but there was still a trace of expectation in his heart.

"The Shangqing Sect has stood in Dongzhou for thousands of years, and the sect master must be very powerful..."

Elder Zhou looked at Lu Fan, who was stunned, thinking that he was just a little afraid of meeting the sect master, and after shaking his head with a smile, he didn't pay attention to it anymore.

After Elder Zhou got up and found a clean set of clothes for Lu Fan to change into, the two of them set off for the East Peak Sect Sect Hall.

Because of Elder Zhou's special status, he was able to fly in the sect, and took Lu Fan all the way to roar, and soon came to the East Peak.

A magnificent hall stands in the middle of the east peak, the sea of clouds is misty, beautiful, bursts of fairy sound come out from the hall from time to time, the noon sun penetrates the clouds, dyeing a piece of gold for this hall.

Looking closer, eight giant pillars carved with tigers and leopards support the front hall, cranes shuttle and play in the clouds, and loud cranes swirl around the beams.

Above the front hall, the three big characters of the sect master hall were flying dragons and phoenixes, and the powerful coercion attacked, but Lu Fan couldn't help but stop.

"Master, this is the Sect Master's Hall?"

Lu Fan looked at the scene in front of him, the shock brought to him by the Shangqing Sect was too much, and until now, he had only seen the tip of the iceberg.

"Let's go!"

Elder Zhou was still a little uneasy here, and after a slight groan, he raised his feet and walked forward.

Lu Fan followed behind Elder Zhou, constantly looking around, the jewels were brilliant, and the tigers and leopards carved on the huge pillars were lifelike, as if they were still staring at Lu Fan, so that there was a faint earth-shattering roar in his ears.

After a while, the two of them came to the main hall, where a golden-robed man sat upright, his eyes blazing, and his sharp gaze seemed to be able to see through everything.

"Meet the Sect Master!"

Elder Zhou took a step forward, his face extremely respectful, and bowed to the man above the main hall.

Lu Fan also hurriedly clenched his fists, his voice trembled a little, the pressure on him from the sect master was too great, which made Lu Fan nervous in his heart.

Sect Master Liu Daotian looked at the two people in front of him, his gaze crossed Elder Zhou and paused on Lu Fan's body, his eyes flashed, as if he had seen through Lu Fan's whole person!

Lu Fan instantly felt a powerful coercion coming at him! His body continued to become heavy, and just as Lu Fan was struggling to hold on, he suddenly felt that his body was light, one heavy and one light were staggered, making Lu Fan almost unable to stand and stumble under his feet.

Elder Zhou didn't say anything on the side, he knew in his heart that the sect master would definitely not hurt Lu Fan, and showing his momentum was just for show.

Lu Fan was surprised in his heart, and suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Elder Zhou winking at him, and immediately reacted when he thought about it.

"Disciple Lu Fan, meet the sect master!"

Liu Daotian looked at Lu Fan, who bowed his head and bent down to salute, and his tense face eased a lot.

"You are Lu Fan?"

"Disciple is!"

Liu Daotian looked down at Lu Fan, a little puzzled in his heart, this is an ordinary teenager, and he doesn't know what the Supreme Elder in the Dan Pavilion likes about this kid.

"I sent you to the Sect Master Hall today, presumably Elder Zhou also told you the reason for the matter, say it!"

Liu Daotian's voice resounded in the main hall, humming loudly, and after the reflection of the wall, it came over, as if there were countless voices echoing in Lu Fan's ears.

Lu Fan suddenly felt a tightness in his heart, and the spiritual power in his body trembled uncontrollably, and the extremely strong coercion directly acted on his body, sealing all his cultivation that could be used.

Lu Fan reluctantly suppressed the apprehension in his heart, lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then told the story of how he obtained the Elder Token in Qingzhou City.

Elder Zhou had reported to the sect master once, so Liu Daotian also had a rough idea in his heart, at this time, he summoned Lu Fan just to hear what he said, when he heard that it was an old Taoist in Qingzhou City who gave the elder token to Lu Fan, Liu Daotian's eyes suddenly flashed a trace of essence, after interrogating Lu Fan's old Taoist appearance, Liu Daotian frowned tightly, he didn't have the impression of this person in his mind, but this old man must have something to do with Elder Wu's fall!
