Huh?
The two of them looked over in unison, with astonished expressions.
Jiang Fan shook his head and said:
“I do have an impression.”
“But I can’t remember it for the moment.”
“It shouldn’t be particularly expensive or extremely impressive.”
“At least it’s definitely not related to what they mentioned about the ‘Great Sage Realm’.”
“Otherwise, I wouldn’t forget it.”
Wu Manyue said, “Then forget it.”
“Let’s focus on how to report this to the higher-ups.”
“The Hell Beast we talked about turned out to be a scheme by the Divine Movement Sect.”
“We might have enjoyed killing those beasts, but how do we explain it without taking responsibility?”
Jiang Fan was not worried.
Calmly he said, “No need to worry about that.”
“The Pavilion Master is a wise and understanding person. If he finds out, he’d likely praise us secretly.”
“Even if people from the Divine Movement Sect come to Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion to hold us accountable, the most the Pavilion Master would do is scold us on the surface.”
“He definitely won’t do anything to us.”
Despite limited interaction,
Jiang Fan could sense some of the character of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master.
He is definitely a leader one can rely on.
Not like that Demon Emperor who infuriates others.
Boom-boom-boom—
Suddenly.
The ground lightly trembled.
Jiang Fan looked toward the source of the sound, and a group of spirit beasts was approaching from the direction of the Demon Race.
He initially thought it was the retreating Green Cloud Sect returning.
It wasn’t until they got closer that he realized they were all female disciples.
Among the Nine-Sect,
The only sect with all female disciples is the Spirit Beast Sect.
Gong Caiyi, dressed in fluttering colorful skirts, stood atop a spirit beast.
She looked into the distance in Jiang Fan’s direction.
Seeing him unharmed, a gentle and serene smile finally appeared on her face.
Since Ji Ruyue reported that Jiang Fan was chasing down a group of people, Gong Caiyi was very worried.
When she learned there was a ferocious beast with Ninth Layer Perfection of Core Formation among them,
She was even more shocked, decisively abandoned searching for the Hell Beast, and led her disciples to return.
“Jiang Fan, are you alright?”
Even before the spirit beasts had stabilized, Gong Caiyi eagerly jumped over to check Jiang Fan’s body.
Seeing that there were no bloodstains on him, she finally relaxed completely.
Jiang Fan glanced at the many disciples behind her.
Semi-jokingly, he said, “Sect Master Gong, aren’t you afraid of being laughed at by your disciples?”
Gong Caiyi’s pretty face slightly blushed with embarrassment.
She said, “I’m worried about you, yet you make fun of me!”
Gong Caiyi lightly chided, saying, “You heartless little thing.”
“I should never have taken such good care of you back then.”
Jiang Fan chuckled.
He reached out and took her soft and slender hand.
Gong Caiyi was startled and shyly retracted her hand quickly.
Then, she noticed something foreign in her palm.
Unfolding it, she found two lotus seeds, glowing faintly.
“What is this?” Gong Caiyi asked in surprise.
