Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion

Chapter 187 – To be enemies with the world is very exciting to think about

Meng Fan instantly felt awkward.

His question seemed a bit foolish!

If the answer wasn't what he expected, Senior Disciple Jin wouldn't even bother to reply.

And if it was what he thought, Senior Disciple Jin would be even less likely to answer!

Meng Fan forced a bitter smile to hide his embarrassment.

He chatted briefly with Senior Disciple Jin before turning to leave for the Alchemy Hall to find Ye Qingyu.

When Ye Qingyu saw Meng Fan and heard his request, she couldn't help but feel a bit... helpless.

Just yesterday, she had told Meng Fan that he could come to her for any pills he needed in the future.

And here he was, the very next day, asking for two types of pills, both of which were not simple.

He had taken "no need to be polite" to the extreme!

"Alright, come by tomorrow evening to pick up the pills," Ye Qingyu didn't refuse Meng Fan. Since she had already agreed, she had to follow through.

Besides, this was the first time Meng Fan had asked her for help since returning to the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

If she declined the first time, it would seem too harsh.

After all, she owed her alchemy inheritance from the Sword Immortal of Alchemy mostly to Meng Fan!

"Thank you, Senior Sister Ye!" Meng Fan thanked her with a smile, very politely.

Ye Qingyu said flatly, "One batch of Spirit Fusion Pills requires about thirty Spirit Stones, and one batch of Mind Focusing Pills requires about fifty Spirit Stones. Pay up first!"

Business is business.

She also suspected Meng Fan might be shameless enough not to pay.

But she was wrong about Meng Fan.

Meng Fan was always fair in his dealings.

He promptly took out eighty Spirit Stones and handed them to Ye Qingyu.

For Meng Fan now, eighty Spirit Stones were a trivial amount, not worth mentioning.

***

Afterward, Meng Fan left the Alchemy Hall and headed to the Cliff of Remorse in the back mountain.

The Thousand Catty Fall formation was a cultivation method provided by Elder Lin for the Heavenly Origin Realm, and it was indeed effective.

Since he was back at the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, Meng Fan naturally wanted to make use of it.

With the physical strength of Meng Fan's Orient Loong God Body, combined with his cultivation at the third level of the Heavenly Origin Realm, he could now endure an hour of training within the Thousand Catty Fall formation.

"Meng Brother, long time no see. Where have you been lately?" Lin Jian approached Meng Fan as soon as he saw him, asking curiously.

Meng Fan was the only one who could come and go freely at the Cliff of Remorse.

Lin Jian knew Meng Fan was using the Thousand Catty Fall for cultivation and understood that he was a determined person worth befriending.

He also enjoyed chatting with Meng Fan, asking him about news from the outside world.

Mostly, he was interested in news about his master.

Meng Fan knew nothing about Lin Jian's master, only that her name was Lu Xiaoyun.

Lin Jian had told Meng Fan this himself.

Lin Jian had asked Meng Fan to help find out about Lu Xiaoyun, but Meng Fan had never taken it seriously and never inquired.

But the name Lu Xiaoyun did sound gentle, making it understandable why Lin Jian might be infatuated with his master.

After all, what man doesn't like gentle women?

But Meng Fan's thoughts were problematic!

Judging people by their appearance is often wrong, let alone by their name.

Names are given by parents and don't represent one's looks or personality.

"I went down the mountain for some training," Meng Fan casually replied to Lin Jian.

"Training down the mountain? That's great. The first time I went down the mountain, my master took me. She was dressed in white, as pure as snow, like an immortal descending to the mortal world, in an instant..."

Meng Fan had only said nine words, but Lin Jian went on to say at least nine hundred.

Every word was about his master, and his eyes were filled with tenderness as he spoke.

Initially, Meng Fan didn't take Lin Jian's infatuation with his master seriously.

In this world, such feelings were indeed against societal norms.

Although Meng Fan could accept it from his perspective, he still thought Lin Jian was a bit delusional.

The reason was simple: Lin Jian and his master Lu Xiaoyun were not mutually affectionate.

Lin Jian had this rebellious love, but his master did not.

So, in Meng Fan's eyes, Lin Jian was just being "reckless."

But at this moment, Meng Fan's thoughts suddenly changed.

He felt Lin Jian wasn't wrong; he even suddenly envied Lin Jian.

Is it wrong to love someone?

Is it wrong to love someone you shouldn't?

No matter what others think, Lin Jian himself was not wrong.

Especially when Lin Jian mentioned his master, the deep tenderness in his eyes made Meng Fan a bit envious.

Honestly, he also wanted to love someone wholeheartedly, to experience that passionate love.

Even to the point of standing against the world for love!

Just imagining it was thrilling.

But unfortunately, Meng Fan couldn't do it.

Deep down, Meng Fan was a selfish person, incapable of loving a woman with his whole heart.

"Today, I'll help you find out about Lu Xiaoyun," Meng Fan suddenly said to Lin Jian, looking serious.

Lin Jian was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with excitement and joy.

"Thank you, thank you so much!" he said, his words stumbling over each other.

He had sensed that Meng Fan wasn't interested in his matters before and had never helped him inquire.

He didn't expect Meng Fan to bring it up now, which was a pleasant surprise.

Meng Fan smiled, "Actually, I used to think you shouldn't love your master, that you were being rebellious.

But just now, I realized you're not wrong. Loving someone isn't wrong, and loving someone you shouldn't love isn't wrong either!

As long as it's sincere, even if the world curses you, you have a clear conscience!

Senior Brother Lin, keep it up. I look forward to the day I can drink at your wedding with your master."

Hearing Meng Fan's words, Lin Jian, this rough man, had tears welling up in his eyes instantly.

This showed how much Meng Fan's words moved him!

Because no one had ever supported him; everyone mocked, ridiculed, and scolded him.

Some even thought he was unworthy of being human and should die to atone.

Only Meng Fan was the first to support him in such a long time!!!

Lin Jian said firmly, "Meng Brother, just for those words, from today on, you are my blood brother!

When I marry my master, no matter where I am, no matter where you are, even if it's the ends of the earth, across nine heavens and ten lands, I will invite you to drink at my wedding!"
