"That Shangguan Jinghong is so hateful! Humph, no one else has any objections, he just talks too much!"
On the way back to Thirteen Hall Peak, Chu Ling'er kicked the stone under her feet and muttered to express her inner dissatisfaction. Lin Fan smiled and said, "Sister Sister, you have been talking all the way, and my ears are almost out of calluses.
”
Chu Ling'er pouted and said, "But Shangguan Jinghong is very hateful. Originally, the quota of Lingshen Spring belongs to you, but he jumped out to object."
"I understand him. Think from the perspective of others. If I were in his position, I would probably protest." Lin Fan said lightly.
Lin Fan really had no resentment or disgust towards Shangguan Jinghong.
As he said, if his quota was in the hands of others, he would probably protest.
Shangguan Jinghong dared to refute the decisions of the Pavilion Master and the elders in public. Lin Fan admired this courage.
Not everyone can do this.
Chu Ling'er said, "Do you still understand him? Junior brother, don't you know what the Lingshen Spring means?"
Lin Fan said: "I know, haven't you introduced me to me just now?"
"Then do you still understand Shangguan Jinghong?" Chu Ling'er was angry, as if the Lingshen Spring quota he received suddenly flew away not Lin Fan, but her, "Little Junior Brother, why are you so stupid?"
"Sister Sister, do you have no confidence in your junior brother?" Lin Fan asked with a smile.
Chu Ling'er shook her head quickly and said, "It's not that I don't believe in you. If it's a competition among the disciples of the cabinet, I won't worry. Even compared with Senior Brother Jian Fenghan, I believe you have a certain chance of winning. But Shangguan
Jinghong is a true disciple, and his cultivation has reached the highest mid-stage level, which is much higher than you."
Lin Fan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "It is precisely because of this that I proposed to show up again in ten days."
"What's enough for ten days!" Chu Ling'er frowned.
"Ten days," Lin Fan smiled and said, "Ten days may be enough for me to tie the gap in strength with Senior Brother Shangguan."
Chu Ling'er blinked and said, "Little Junior Brother."
"Um?"
"I trust you!"
"Um."
....
After returning to his bamboo house, Lin Fan was immersed in his mind and began to practice.
Lin Fan is self-aware. With his current strength, he has almost no chance of winning with Shangguan Jinghong.
That's why Lin Fan asked to postpone the showdown date by ten days.
These ten days are Lin Fan’s opportunity!
Lin Fan wants to practice quietly and then amaz everyone.
On the other side.
Shangguan Jinghong knelt in front of Elder Ge, lowered his head, and honestly admitted his mistake, but he did not look like he had before.
There were four young men next to them, who were Shangguan Jinghong's senior brother and Elder Ge's personal disciple.
Elder Ge sat on the chair, gently stroked his beard, and smiled and said, "No, you are right, you are wrong for your teacher."
Shangguan Jinghong's face changed, thinking that Master was really angry, and hurriedly said, "Master, I really know that I am wrong. I should not go against Master's intentions, I should not act willful, and I should not...
…”
"alright."
Elder Ge interrupted Shangguan Jinghong's words, raised his right hand slightly, and a gentle force helped Shangguan Jinghong up.
Elder Ge looked at Shangguan Jinghong with a smile and said, "Jinghong, you are right, but the wrong one is your teacher."
Speaking of this, Elder Ge looked around and said, "My teacher has always taught you that we sword cultivators should have a clear conscience. The sword in our hands can be bent and broken, but the sword in our heart is better than bent! That's what I said
, but did not do this. Today Jinghong's approach awakened me. Not afraid of power and sticking to my original intention is the true style of sword cultivator! Jinghong, today, you taught me a lesson
Elder Ge said: "I hope you can always stick to your true heart, and you will be the same."
"Abide by the teachings!"
Shangguan Jinghong and the other four disciples said in unison.
"Um."
Elder Ge nodded and said, "Jinghong, the Pavilion Master's mind cannot be measured, he will not be dissatisfied with you because of this. On the contrary, the Pavilion Master will appreciate you more, so you don't have to worry. However, ten days later
In the showdown with Lin Fan, you must do your best to show off your style!”
"Jinghong must do his best!"
Shangguan said loudly.
"Okay, go down and prepare." Elder Ge waved his hand and said.
"Yes, my disciple will leave."
The disciples bowed and left Elder Ge's room.
Elder Ge always looked at the five disciples with a smile on his face, but when they left, the smile on Elder Ge's face instantly restrained and turned his head to look at another place.
Over there, the space twisted slightly twice, and a figure slowly emerged.
Elder Ge quickly got up, clasped his fists and was about to salute.
But the man raised his hand gently.
Elder Ge suddenly felt a soft but irresistible force coming, and he straightened up.
"Your disciple is going to compete with Lin Fan for the quota of Ling Shenquan?" the man said.
Elder Ge nodded and said, "Yes, the Pavilion Master also agreed."
"Haha, Ge You, Ge You, you are a lot of thoughts." The man smiled and pointed at Elder Ge and said, "But do you know that as long as I am willing, the decision made by the mistress will be the same.
Can be changed.”
Upon hearing this, Elder Ge's face changed.
But the man continued, "But don't worry, I won't do such a shameless thing. I believe that the disciple I like, he will definitely surprise everyone in ten days."
"Haha, let's wait and see." Elder Ge smiled.
"Hahaha!"
The man laughed a few times, and then disappeared like a bubble.
....
In the following time, the Jiange was calm.
But everyone knows that a good show is about to happen.
During this period, Lin Fan was in seclusion in the bamboo house and did not show up.
Five days passed in a flash.
In the bamboo house, Lin Fan opened his eyes with a "swish".
The moment he opened his eyes, a divine light flashed by.
Lin Fan slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.
After five days of cultivation, although Lin Fan has not yet broken through the third stage of creation, he has completely digested the perception of fighting for swords and swords, and his cultivation has also reached the peak of the second stage of creation, and he can break through just one slight distance.
But don't underestimate this gap of distance. It is possible that you will break through the next moment, or that you will stay in place for ten or eight years or even longer.
Lin Fan was not in a hurry to achieve success, so he ended his retreat and left the bamboo house.
There are still five days left before the showdown with Shangguan Jinghong.
In these five days, simple practice may not make any improvements.
Therefore, Lin Fan no longer went into seclusion, but went to the gallstone.
He has never forgotten the ultimate reward of gallstones in the rumors.
Lin Fan decided to try the gallstone in the next five days.
Even if you cannot get the ultimate reward, you can still hone your sword intent, which will improve your strength.
Soon, Lin Fan came to the gallstone.
The disciples of Jiange around the gallstone all greeted Lin Fan.
Lin Fan nodded in response with a smile, then found a seat, sat cross-legged, calmed down, and began to feel the truth.
