Chapter 236: Where Is My Horse?
Elder Han died.
He died very peacefully and he didn’t suffer any pain.
If one wanted to talk about sadness.
He didn’t feel too sad, after all, he had only just met Elder Han. He wouldn’t cry so much just because someone gave him some benefits.
That was too fake. Although he was an actor, what mattered was the process. Sadness without an entire process was without a soul.
Sadness without a soul was just bad acting.
Lin Fan dug a hole and buried Elder Han. He found a stone and made a tombstone. Just as he was about to carve his name, he asked, “What is Elder Han’s name?”
This was awkward.
He only knew that he was called Elder Han but he didn’t know his real name.
“Hanqing.” Elder Yunsheng replied
Lin Fan nodded his head and carved the name onto the tombstone. This was all he could do. He couldn’t do anything else.
Everything was settled and everyone stood by the river.
Elder Yunsheng and the others witnessed other people get lucky, moreover, it was very lucky.
“Young hero Lin, how much did you comprehend?” Elder Yunsheng asked curiously. Based on normal circ.u.mstances, it would be okay if we can comprehend 10%. Some with good comprehension can do 20-30%.
Lin Fan said calmly, “Not bad.”
It was indeed not bad.
If Elder Han had not been able to hold on, he might have comprehended all of his cultivation techniques.
Elder Yunsheng didn’t ask more. Maybe it was really as he said, not bad. There was no need to ask more, any more and it would cause him to be more envious.
But he was already really envious.
They had witnessed such a lucky break.
“Hero Lin, what do you plan on doing? If there is nothing, why not head over to Danxia Island?” Elder Yunsheng asked.
He really hoped that Lin Fan could head to Danxia Island.
He wanted to get closer to Young Hero Lin. For such a young man, if nothing went wrong, he would be able to reach a higher level.
He also wanted to head back to tell the Sect Leader that he saved their lives, for him to make an exception and allow them to give him techniques.
Although rules were rules, sometimes one had to make exceptions.
“No, I have things to do, so I won’t go there. If I pa.s.s by it, I will head over.” Lin Fan smiled.
He felt that the three of them were decent.
They were different from Nine Bug Gang who wanted to harm people right away.
Elder Yunsheng said regretfully, “Since that is the case, then we won’t force you. If you face anything, you can come to Danxia Island to find us.”
To the three of them, their lifesaver was bigger than the heavens. Moreover, he didn’t save them once or twice but many times.
So what if they died because of him? To them it was worth it.
Danxia Island had many disciples that died each year, why?
It wasn’t because they had many enemies but because they were righteous and paid back their debts. Since he helped them, they were willing to give up everything.
Even if it didn’t concern them, if they faced it they would care. It was okay if one was weak as long as their heart wasn’t.
So many of them died. Even so, Danxia Island maintained such a status, and became a publicly recognized righteous sect.
“Hahaha.” Lin Fan smiled, “If things really pop up, I will really do so. Then, let’s say goodbye here, the world isn’t big. We will have many chances to meet.”
“Okay.” Elder Yunsheng and the others cupped their fists and thanked Lin Fan once more.
They weren’t prepared to head back to Danxia Island. They wanted to head to Sword Palace to tell them what had happened in Black Mountain.
Elder Han was the Sword Palace Elder, he had a high status. If they didn’t tell them what happened, if Sword Palace met Young Hero Lin who carried the Huiwu Sword, they would definitely clash. They would make this journey there for him.
Lin Fan stood beside the river and looked on as the three of them left. He looked into the distance. There were no captains there.
None at all.
The matter was really clear.
The captains purposely sent people over and then left them there.
Forget it.
It was best for them to leave. As for those survivors, they would think of ways to survive on their own.
Lin Fan tried to refresh his points. He noticed that the cultivation technique he got from Elder Han couldn’t be refreshed. He probably wouldn’t be able to refresh them if he didn’t add the points himself.
But it was okay since swords were good. Along with his endless internal strength, they would radiate the most eye-catching light.
“Where did my horse go?” Lin Fan searched for his horse. Before he headed to Black Mountain, he had tied his horse here.
But why was it gone after he returned? There was only a rope left.
Who stole his horse?
“I need to find my horse.” Lin Fan muttered.
The story of him finding his horse…
…
“A 100-man army was wiped out, I want to know who did it.” A rough brute asked solemnly. He was a General under King Wutong. Yesterday, someone reported that they found burned corpses sliced into half. From the remaining clothes, they knew that they were troops under King Wutong.
The Deputy Generals all kept silent.
They didn’t know who did it. If they did, they wouldn’t have waited till now.
Zu Xiang was promoted from Lieutenant to Captain.
Although it was just one rank, he was already a Martial Official. Out of all his armies, he was promoted the quickest.
The reason was that the advisors who were against Liu Xuan liked him.
“Loyal Captain, say your opinion.” The general asked.
This Loyal Captain was his t.i.tle.
Zu Xiang was solemn. He took a step forward, “General, I don’t know what happened. If I head over, maybe I will discover something.”
“Eh, you will lead men to investigate.” The general nodded. He had high hopes for Zu Xiang. He knew that Zu Xiang wasn’t as dumb as the other generals and talents. As long as he was used well, he would help him get promoted by King Wutong.
“Yes, General heeds your order.” Zu Xiang replied. He didn’t need to climb quickly, he just needed to climb to a higher position.
When he left the camp, he noticed Liu Xuan.
“Sir Liu.” Zu Xiang cupped his fists, not feeling angry that Liu Xuan betrayed him. He was ready to kill him but just that the time wasn’t right.
Liu Xuan saw that Zu Xiang was slightly stunned, he smiled, “Loyal Captain.”
The two of them looked at one another and smiled. Normal people might have thought that they had a good relations.h.i.+p.
Several days later.
Yunlu City.
You didn’t see it wrong, did the name of the city look familiar?
Lin Fan was back. He didn’t just pa.s.s by this place, but he came to get more rage points.
As for the horse, it was such a waste. He didn’t find it and felt sad. Who stole his horse? Who could do such a lowly thing?
Lin Fan asked about the Yunlu City division and learned that they were rebuilding it and it was mostly done.
To the Yunlu City people, they were shocked and afraid during this period. Nine Bug Gang investigated all suspicious people. No matter whether or not it was you, they would capture you if they suspected you. Everyone felt threatened and didn’t dare to head out.
“If I wipe it out once more, will they make me their top enemy?” Lin Fan touched his heart and asked himself. Was it really good if he did that?
“It should be good.”
He believed that Nine Bug Gang would hate him to the core.
But he had no choice. For some reason, he wanted to fight them to the death.
Maybe this was the legendary unbreakable bond. Even if their hate was short-lived, his feelings for them wouldn’t change easily.
If he had to make things clear, he loved them, he really loved them.
That night.
Darkness fell. There were stars in the sky which shone brightly. It was really beautiful.
This was a world that one could fly in.
He was curious as to whether there were people living in the stars, how far the stars were. Would he have the hope of visiting one?
“Cultivation is decent.” Lin Fan stood on a roof and looked at the division. A smile appeared on his face.
He didn’t need to walk to the main entrance, directly stepping on the walls.
The division.
A bunch of people were drinking and talking, the atmosphere was great. There was wine and meat, the only thing lacking were girls. If there were, it would feel much better.
“Congrats Gang Leader Chen, White Demon’s death let you rise up and moved over to the Yunlu City division.”
“That’s right, how was that White Demon even good, just Gang Leader had faith in him. Look at him now, someone beat him to death. ”
“We felt then that Gang Leader Chen would rise up and be successful.”
The people around were all members of Nine Bug Gang and were all moved to the division. Naturally, they felt great. Being far from the headquarters meant that they were free and could do whatever they wanted.
Gang Leader Chen’s face flushed red. He felt great. Especially since he was now in charge of people, his old enemy White Demon was dead too.
Could he be unhappy?
As for whether anything would happen here, he could pat his chest to tell anyone that it was impossible. Normally speaking, no one would return to a place. Especially someplace with as much importance as this.
“Yi, did you hear a buzzing sound?” One of them listened intently, frowning as he asked.
He thought it was a fly.
Then, he noticed it wasn’t.
The noisy surroundings became quiet.
Everyone focused and listened, there was indeed buzzing.
“Go see what is going on.” Gang Leader Chen ordered someone else. He just handed these things to others. He just had to be the Gang Leader of the division.
“Yes.” That person’s face flushed red from drinking, he even faked to kneel on one knee.
Everyone laughed.
Gang Leader Chen nodded his head in satisfaction, this really felt great.
A while later.
Everyone was curious. He went out for so long, so why did he have no reaction at all?
“Oi! What are you doing.” The people in the room asked impatiently.
One of them got up, he wanted to see what was going on outside.
There were no signs of him either.
At the door, two people stood there, not moving at all.
