The Crown Prince was stunned, as if he had heard wrongly.
"Brother, are you really going to let me go?" The Third Prince had to make sure. He was afraid that he would be killed the moment he left.
Lin Fan looked at the Third Prince and took a deep breath. He patted his shoulder, his eyes pure. "Friend, we've known each other for quite some time. What do you think of me during this time?"
Here comes the suffocating question.
The Third Prince didn't know how to respond, and his eyes flickered. This question was too profound, and he wasn't an idiot. How could he possibly say, "You're despicable, shameless, sinister, vile, and vicious?" If he really said that, he probably wouldn't be far from death.
"Brother, although I haven't known you for a long time, I can already see that you are a person who keeps his promises. You are a dragon among men, with a noble character, and you treat people sincerely and kindly. Although you kidnapped me, no, not kidnapped me, you let me experience life, such an unforgettable experience, it is because of your selfless dedication and your fearlessness that I can feel the true meaning of life."
"At this moment, I don't want to say anything else. I just want to say that I will engrave Brother's teachings in my heart. I will never forget Brother's teachings. From now on, Brother will be my guiding light. You will always guide me forward. I will never forget your great kindness."
The Third Prince's tears trickled down his cheeks as he spoke. It was very difficult for him to squeeze out two drops of tears. Was he still human? Why did he have to encounter such a pervert?
Not only was he kidnapped, he even had one of his ears chopped off. Now he was saying that he was a friend. How could there be such a friend?
Hearing the words of the Third Prince, Lin Fan's heart skipped a beat. He patted the Third Prince's shoulder heavily, "Third Prince, no matter what, I've decided to be your friend. Not only do you understand my intentions, but your father and the dynasty also show me enough respect. Don't worry, if anything happens in the future, I'll definitely not let you suffer."
"Alright, take your servant and leave. I will let you go."
Lin Fan said sincerely. He was quite satisfied with this Third Prince. Even though he was a little arrogant and overbearing earlier on, he could understand. He was a young man after all. Who didn't have their moments of arrogance?
As long as he could change, it wouldn't be a problem.
"Brother, are you really letting me go?" The Third Prince asked again. He knew that Lin Fan would usually turn around and attack from behind. Then, he would say that he was ignorant. Others might not know about this, but how could he not know?
Lin Fan nodded. "Yes. Go."
The Third Prince gulped. He was a little nervous and a little scared. He didn't know if Lin Fan was serious or not.
"Then I'm really leaving."
"Go. Remember my name. I'm Lin Fan. Your Immortal Dynasty is not bad. You're loyal and generous. My impression of you has changed." Lin Fan sighed. It was hard to meet a dynasty like this. To meet one meant that one was luck. One had to cherish it and not destroy it.
The Third Prince turned his head back three times with every step he took, feeling extremely nervous. In the end, he soared into the sky and hurriedly fled into the distance. He was truly afraid.
"Crown Prince, wait for me." The old butler stretched out his hand and staggered to catch up.
He knew that the Crown Prince was disappointed in him and would not place him in an important position in the future. His heart was filled with pain and sorrow, but he was happy that the Crown Prince was able to preserve his life.
"Teacher, let's hurry up and leave." Lin Fan looked into the void and his emotions surged. He had obtained the riches, but he hadn't studied them in detail yet. However, this wasn't a place where he could stay for long. It was best for him to leave as soon as possible.
"Alright."
Of course, Tian Xu knew what was going on. Since the crown prince had left, he would definitely inform his men. If he didn't leave now, something big would happen.
The Ice Sky Demonic Dragon and the Blood-eyed Demonic Ape King were exhilarated. They had no idea how Lin Fan had done it and how much wealth he had gotten.
But it was really exciting. Even now, his blood was boiling.
Just as he was about to reach the sect, he suddenly stopped. "Master, you guys go back first. I have to check if there's anything wrong with these treasures."
He paused and thought of something. In his previous life, he had read quite a bit of content. For example, there were people who hid their auras in their riches and eventually followed them, resulting in the destruction of their sects and the deaths of their loved ones.
"My disciple, be careful. If you can't handle it, just leave. Don't be greedy." Tian Xu said. He was satisfied with his disciple's intelligence. As long as he was careful, he could live longer.
After his master left, Lin Fan took out all the treasure chests from his storage ring. Suddenly, treasure chests filled the air. They might not have been opened, but the aura of riches could be felt in the air.
Lin Fan wrapped the treasure chests up to check if there was any strange aura in them.
"Eh? There's nothing." Lin Fan was surprised. He didn't expect there to be nothing. "Mhmm, not bad. The Immortal Dynasty is good indeed. Very good. I'll remember you guys."
Lin Fan was satisfied. To think that there was really no strange aura in these treasures. He then kept the treasure chests and headed back to the sect.
"How tragic." The Third Prince disappeared into the void, tears streaming down his face. I'm finally out alive. He was really afraid that the other party would attack him.
But luckily, the other party was righteous enough to let him out after getting the treasures.
"How much did father pay?" The Third Prince was confused. But he should be able to find out once he returned to the dynasty.
The atmosphere in the Immortal Dynasty's palace was extremely tense. Emperor Zhou sat on his throne, and the head of the Grand Scholars was kneeling on the ground, retorting with a red face.
"Impossible. Emperor Zhou, you're wronged. I guarantee that there's no problem at all. Not even one chest is missing. It's really 2,563 chests."
He was shocked when he heard that Emperor Zhou only needed three to four hundred chests. His first thought was that it was impossible. How could it be so little? The other party must have made a mistake.
"Hmph! Nothing wrong? Did I hear wrongly? "Emperor Zhou's face was terrifyingly cold. He couldn't wait to kill the head of the Grand Scholars.
If not for the fact that his ancestors had contributed greatly to the Immortal Dynasty, Emperor Zhou would have killed him on the spot.
"Emperor Zhou, you're wronged. I might not be strong, but I'm wise. I've made a lot of calculations, and the final conclusion is that it's 2,563 chests." The head of the Grand Scholars was in tears. He wasn't sad that Emperor Zhou didn't believe him, but that Emperor Zhou didn't believe in his wisdom.
He thought that no one in the world could solve such a difficult problem except for him.
"Father, I have something to say," the Second Prince stepped forward and said.
"Speak. What is it?" Emperor Zhou found it hard to calm down. This was a huge blow to him. Not only had he given away the wealth, but he hadn't even managed to save his third son.
After a moment of silence, the Second Prince said something that frightened everyone. "The Grand Secretary said that no one could solve this conundrum except for him. When he made this request, did it mean that he only wanted us to give him more? And he himself didn't know how much Third Brother was worth. In his mind, maybe a few hundred boxes would be enough. However, the Grand Secretary calculated the correct answer, so we were wrong."
"The other party didn't say this to test us. He just said it casually to give us some pressure."
As expected, when the Second Crown Prince said this, the scene suddenly quieted down.
The Grand Scholar Shen Ran, who was crying, opened his mouth wide and his eyes wide. His heart was pounding furiously. It couldn't be like this, right? Cleverness could cause one to fall victim to one's own cleverness. The other party didn't even know about it and just casually said it. Yet, he and the others had gone all out to calculate and finally came to an answer that wasn't important at all.
"It really seems possible." The Great General was shocked. If that was really the case, didn't that mean that they had become demons and dug their own graves?
Emperor Zhou stood up. His expression was ugly and he was silent. It was like he was in a daze. Even his fingers started to tremble.
Just because he took it seriously, the 300-400 chests turned into 2,563 chests. A large portion of the Dynasty's wealth was given away to someone else?
If that was really the case, he really wanted to bang his head on the throne.
The Crown Prince saw that the situation wasn't right and felt that he shouldn't let them dwell on this matter. Then, he said, "Father, we've fallen into their trap. It's exactly 2,563 boxes. It's definitely true. That thief said those words to sow discord."
"Yes, you're right. He's trying to sow discord." Emperor Zhou replied. No matter what, he couldn't believe it. He would rather believe that it was more than two thousand chests.
The Great General and the rest looked at each other and agreed. They didn't dare to say that it was three or four hundred chests, or their hearts would hurt.
Suddenly, a ray of light could be seen coming from afar.
"Father …." The Third Prince's voice could be heard from afar.
"San Er is back." The Imperial Concubine was overjoyed. Women don't care about how much wealth they have. She rushed out, but tears welled up in her eyes when she saw the state of her third son. "San Er, you scared me to death."
The Third Prince sniffled. He was really scared out of his wits. His missing ear was still hurting.
But I'm lucky to be able to come back alive. He swore to himself that he would never go out and play again. It's too dangerous.
In the Magnificent Flame Sect, the disciples guarding the entrance were chatting. They usually guarded the sect when they had nothing to do. They talked about the sect's happenings to kill time.
"Eh? Look in the distance. Is Senior Brother Lin back? "
"I think so. And Elder Tian Xu. They're back too."
Lin Fan caught up with Tian Xu and returned to the sect together. They had something important to do, and that was to sort out their wealth.
"Master, let's go to your place first. We have to divide it properly." Lin Fan said. The wealth was too huge. They had to organize it properly.
The Magnificent Flame Sect might have gotten a lot of wealth from the Realm of True Immortals, but they were still too weak. The Black Sky Race and the Tower of Babel might have some good wealth, but they might not be able to take out the real treasures.
However, things were different this time. In order to redeem the Third Crown Prince, the Immortal Dynasty had accumulated an unimaginable amount of wealth. It was so vast that it was shocking.
I need to think about it.
