Next day …
After yesterday's events, Lin Fan felt much more at ease. Now that Grand Master and two Senior Elders had come to Nameless Peak, and the way they looked at him was filled with joy. Evidently, everything was going to be fine.
But what Lin Fan could not figure out was whether or not he would be able to cultivate pills. He could not say for sure.
As Lin Fan walked out of the house, Zhang Ergou rushed up, "Grand Master!"
After yesterday's events, Zhang Ergou could see the bright future ahead of him. With Grand Master and Senior Elders here to support his Grand Master, wouldn't he soar in the future?
"Yes." Lin Fan nodded his head. He was in a pretty good mood today as well.
Just then, a group of people appeared at the entrance. Lin Fan was taken aback. Could it be that these guys from Danding Peak were here again?
But when he saw the group of people clearly, Lin Fan was puzzled.
What the hell were these things?
They were short and had black skin. Their ears were long and sharp, and their arms were thick.
"These … these are demons!" Zhang Ergou was shocked. After being a servant for so long, he had never seen these creatures before. If he were to describe them as humans, they did not look like humans. But if he were to describe them as not humans, they did look a little like humans.
"Who are you guys?" Lin Fan frowned and asked.
These black guys were carrying tools in their hands. To Lin Fan, these tools were foreign to him, and he did not know what they were.
Just then, a voice came from nowhere and entered Lin Fan's ears.
At the same time, Lin Fan realized that he was the only one who could hear this voice. No one else could.
"Lin Fan, these are the Earth Demons that live under Glory Sect. They are the best craftsmen in the world, and they are here to build the infrastructure for your peak."
This was the voice of Grand Master Yan. Lin Fan looked at these Earth Demons with interest. He had seen his fair share of beasts, but this was the first time he had seen something like this.
"Sect … Sect Master, what are they?" Zhang Ergou asked.
Lin Fan smiled, "Don't worry, these are Earth Demons sent by the sect to build our houses."
"Old Demon?" Zhang Ergou looked at it doubtfully. Then, like Lin Fan, he also looked at it curiously.
At this moment, among these Earth Demons, one of the taller ones walked up to Lin Fan, opened his mouth and said a bunch of things.
This Earth Demon's green eyes flashed with a hint of doubt, his fingers gesturing in the air.
This was the first time Zhang Ergou had seen such a creature, and he was extremely curious, "Master, what are they talking about?"
Lin Fan was exasperated right now. How the hell would Yours Truly know what he was talking about? But looking at Zhang Ergou's doubtful expression, Lin Fan went silent for a moment.
He was the Master now. If he couldn't even understand something like this, how could he make Zhang Ergou submit to him?
But in order to converse with this Earth Demon, Lin Fan thought of a good idea.
Lin Fan did not speak, but nodded his head with a smile. He then pointed at his wooden house and Zhang Ergou's wooden house and nodded his head heavily.
Regardless, Lin Fan did not care if the other party could understand him or not. He gestured with his hands, his meaning was clear. 'You guys can do as you see fit.'
Just then, the Earth Demon began to speak again, its sharp and thick fingers gesturing up and down blindly.
Seeing that Master could converse with these Earth Demons, Zhang Ergou's face revealed a look of admiration. To Zhang Ergou, there was nothing that Master Lin did not know how to do.
This was truly admirable.
When Feng Bujue came out of the wooden house, he was shocked by the sight of these black and swarthy guys. He then hurried over to Zhang Ergou's side.
"Senior Brother, what are they doing?" Feng Bujue sized them up carefully.
"Shh, don't speak. Master is communicating with these Earth Demons. If we don't understand, don't interrupt." Zhang Ergou replied.
"Oh, oh …" Feng Bujue stood at the side and nodded his head. Then, just like Zhang Ergou, he looked at his Master silently.
...
"Ok … ok." Lin Fan raised his right hand and drew a circle, extending three fingers.
Since he did not understand what these Earth Demons were saying, he might as well show off his English and hope that they wouldn't understand.
Finally, as though the Earth Demon had understood Lin Fan's intentions, he turned around and spoke to the group of Earth Demons.
"ROAR …!"
The group of Earth Demons behind him let out a series of roars. Waving the tools in their hands, they spread out in all directions.
"Master, what did that last gesture mean?" Zhang Ergou asked.
"It means that there's no problem. You wouldn't understand such a profound language. Alright, let's head down the mountain first. I'll leave this place to them." Lin Fan replied.
"Yes." Zhang Ergou and Feng Bujue nodded their heads. Eventually, they could not help but admire the capabilities of their Master. This was truly admirable.
...
Just as Lin Fan was preparing to head down the mountain, he looked back worriedly. This leader of the Earth Demons was like a cow talking to a horse. Both of them might not even know what the other party was talking about. If they were to bluff their way through just like that, Lin Fan wondered what they were going to do.
The leader of the Earth Demons looked at Lin Fan as well. Opening his mouth wide, he revealed a row of sharp teeth, as though he was saying, "You guys can leave first.
"You guys can go. Leave this place to us."
These Earth Demons had been living in Glory Sect for tens of thousands of years. They had always been under the protection of Glory Sect. They did not have to contribute anything. Whenever Glory Sect needed something built, they would be the ones to do it.
Now that Nameless Peak needed them to build, this was a joyous occasion for these Earth Demons who loved to build.
Even though they did not know what they were talking about with this human, this gesture was a tradition passed down by the Earth Demons for tens of thousands of years.
This was a form of greeting to the contractor, a form of building exchange.
As the contractor, they naturally had to pass down this tradition.
Since the other party could not understand what they were talking about, it was up to them to decide how they wanted to build the building.
...
At this moment, Lin Fan brought his two disciples down the mountain.
The outer sect disciples who passed by were no longer fearful of Lin Fan. Instead, they respected him from the bottom of their hearts.
"Hello, Junior Master Lin."
"Hello, Senior Brother."
Lin Fan nodded his head silently, enjoying this form of address. Looking at the admiring gazes of the outer sect disciples, Lin Fan felt that everything he had done was worth it.
This was the feeling of being respected by tens of thousands of people. This was awesome!
Zhang Ergou puffed out his chest and followed behind Lin Fan.
To be able to follow Master Lin out was such an honor. But if Master Lin and Junior Brother were not around, everyone's gazes would be on him.
How great would that feel?
"Master, I'd like to make a trip to the servants' area. That's where I used to belong. I'd like to pay them a visit." Zhang Ergou said.
"Yes, go on." Lin Fan waved his hand.
In Lin Fan's opinion, if these two disciples of his weren't around, then everyone's attention would be focused on him.
How great would that feeling be?
Feng Bujue looked at Master Lin, then at his Senior Brother. Suddenly, he felt like he was an extra.
"Master, I'd like to pay a visit to my old friends." Feng Bujue felt that it was time for him to retreat.
"Yes, go ahead." Lin Fan said with a smile.
Finally, his two disciples were gone.
