"Let's go!"
Lin Zhe said fiercely, leaving with his severe injuries. Although Lu Fan hadn't fought back, it wouldn't be that easy for him to deal with Lu Fan.
After Lin Zhe left, many disciples present felt a sense of helplessness. They had wanted to watch a good show, but they hadn't expected Lu Fan to be able to injure Lin Zhe.
With his severe injuries, Lin Zhe returned to his residence. The man beside him said, "Senior Brother Lin, isn't this matter too strange?"
"I also find it strange!"
Lin Zhe nodded, "How can there be such a treasure in this world? Even if there were, how could he have obtained it!"
"I think this kid has many secrets!"
A disciple said, "If Elder Mu Qiu could be made to act, perhaps he could capture him! Then—"
"Don't speak nonsense!"
Lin Zhe waved his hand, "Elder Mu Qiu is an outer elder of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, and a Spirit King expert. How could he make a move against a disciple!"
"That's not necessarily true. Elder Mu Qiu highly values treasures. As long as he knows this kid has such a supreme treasure, Elder Mu Qiu will definitely act!"
Several disciples spoke directly, extremely sure.
Lin Zhe nodded slightly, "This is indeed a good plan!"
Meanwhile, in the back mountain, Lu Fan finished gathering herbs and headed towards the alchemy room.
Seeing Lu Fan return with the medicinal herbs, Ling'er was slightly surprised, "It seems the rumors are true. You really injured Lin Zhe?"
"It should be the treasure on me that injured him!" Lu Fan smiled slightly.
"Really? Can you show it to me? It actually has such a treasure?"
Ling'er said quickly, her expectation growing.
"No!"
Lu Fan shook his head, "This treasure is extraordinary and cannot be casually shown to others!"
"If you don't want to show it, then don't,"
Ling'er gave him a look, "Let me tell you, if you really have a supreme treasure, you'd better hand it over in advance!"
"Why?"
Lu Fan shrugged his shoulders, "The treasure is mine, why should I hand it over?"
"To avoid bringing about the calamity of death!"
Ling'er reminded him, "As an outer disciple, possessing a supreme treasure will surely attract covetousness within the Heavenly Fire Pavilion!"
"That's true!"
Lu Fan's brow furrowed. He had casually made up a story, not expecting to dig a hole for himself.
"Hand over the treasure to me, and I'll keep it safe for you,"
Ling'er said seriously, "I have many connections in the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, and no one will trouble me!"
"Junior Sister Ling'er also wants that treasure?"
Lu Fan glanced at her, "But that treasure is bound to me by blood, and it can't be taken away at all!"
"Since that's the case, then forget it."
Ling'er's tone instantly turned indifferent. How could she not see that Lu Fan was unwilling to hand over the treasure to her.
Lu Fan didn't pay too much attention. This treasure was originally fictitious. Moreover, his purpose in coming to the Heavenly Fire Pavilion was to steal the Azure Lotus Sacred Fire. As for the interpersonal relationships within the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, he had no time to manage them.
He had been in the Outer Sect First Heaven for many days, waiting for an opportunity. As soon as the opportunity was ripe, he could sneak into the Third Heaven again to absorb the Azure Lotus Sacred Fire. If he failed, it would be troublesome to enter the Third Heaven again.
In Elder Mu Qiu's courtyard, Lin Zhe stepped inside, appearing very familiar with the place.
"Why are you here?"
Elder Mu Qiu glanced at him, "I heard you are about to enter the Second Heaven, and your status will be different from now on."
"I have good news to tell Elder Mu Qiu today."
Lin Zhe smiled and said, "I intended to deal with that kid from the Alchemy Pavilion today, but I didn't expect that kid to have a supreme treasure on him, and it was extremely powerful. I couldn't even get close. It must be a peerless treasure."
"There is such a thing?"
Elder Mu Qiu's face instantly lit up with joy, "How have I never heard of this before?"
"This kid is very low-key. If I hadn't made a move against him, I wouldn't have discovered it!"
Lin Zhe said directly, "In this case, does Elder Mu Qiu intend to make a move?"
"You boy coming to remind me, it seems you're not here with good intentions!"
Elder Mu Qiu squinted his eyes, "Have you forgotten that there are rules within the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, and one cannot harm fellow disciples."
"Of course, I haven't forgotten!"
Lin Zhe quickly said with a smile, "I was just saying it casually. Whether Elder Mu Qiu makes a move or not is Elder Mu Qiu's business, and it has nothing to do with me."
"You certainly distance yourself cleanly!"
Elder Mu Qiu nodded slightly, "Since that's the case, you can go back first! As for the subsequent matters, I will personally handle them!"
"Thank you, Elder Mu Qiu," Lin Zhe said with a happy expression. Since Elder Mu Qiu had agreed to act, he would never go back on his word.
He knew very well that Elder Mu Qiu treated treasures as his life, and how could he sit idly by with such a treasure.
Returning to his accommodation, Lin Zhe was beaming with joy. As long as Elder Mu Qiu made a move, no matter how powerful the treasure on Lu Fan was, it would eventually be dealt with by Elder Mu Qiu.
Meanwhile, in the alchemy furnace, Lu Fan was refining medicinal herbs, with Elder Shendan condensing pills beside him, appearing to be doing it effortlessly.
"I've heard about what happened today. Within the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, the way to protect your life is to not flaunt your wealth."
Elder Shendan said, "You kid, you've only been in the Outer Sect for a few days and you've already committed such a serious offense. This could lead to trouble."
"Thank you for your concern, Elder Shendan."
Lu Fan clasped his fists, "Actually, it's not a big deal. I can handle this matter myself."
"It's best if you can handle it!"
Elder Shendan nodded and said, "If you can't, then hand that treasure over to me, and I'll keep it safe for you, and I will never claim it as my own!"
"I still believe in the Elder's character, but I don't have any treasure on me." Lu Fan said with a wry smile, "It's just a rumor."
"I see!"
Elder Shendan nodded slightly, but he didn't say anything more. Since Lu Fan had already said this, he couldn't make further trouble.
In the following days, the news of Lu Fan possessing a supreme treasure spread further and wider, becoming known to everyone. All of this was naturally thanks to Lin Zhe.
As long as someone made a move against Lu Fan, he could sit back and relax, watching the tigers fight. No matter what treasure Lu Fan had, he would have to bear the wrath.
One day, Lu Fan went to the back mountain, gathering herbs as usual. Just then, a figure appeared behind Lu Fan.
"Elder Mu Qiu, why are you here?" Lu Fan asked in surprise.
"I heard you have a supreme treasure on you?" Elder Mu Qiu smiled, "It's already spread in the Outer Sect these past few days, and many disciples have already set their sights on you. You are very dangerous."
"Thank you for the reminder, Elder, but I'm not afraid!"
Lu Fan smiled faintly, appearing even more indifferent. He could see that Elder Mu Qiu's visit was not solely to remind him, but rather carried a palpable killing intent.
"How about this, you hand over the treasure to me, and I'll keep it safe for you,"
Elder Mu Qiu said directly, "That way, there will be no trouble!"
