Xinfeng's cold and aloof face had yet to recover from the shock.
His sword was gone just like that?!
This was the sword that he had painstakingly infused with his Sword Will! How could this be … how could this be?!
Xinfeng's heart was filled with rage. But he knew that he had to hold it in. If he were to lose his temper, Jiuxiao Sect's reputation would be tarnished to the ground.
Xinfeng's heart was in turmoil, but he tried his best to calm himself down.
He mustn't get angry. He mustn't get angry.
No matter how much his heart ached, he mustn't show it. He had to put on a nonchalant look so that the other party would know that this sword was something that he could do without.
Xinfeng forced a smile on his face, but his heart was in pain.
The disappearance of the Sword Will Realm brought the Glory Sect disciples back to their senses. But when they caught sight of the scene before them, they fell into a daze once more.
Everyone then started discussing excitedly.
"Junior Master Lin is simply way too strong!"
"Just looking at that long sword was enough to send shivers down my spine. To think that Junior Master Lin could shatter it with just his body! That's way too scary!"
"Haha! So that's the pride of Jiuxiao Sect! To think that even our Junior Master Lin would be able to destroy that sword with his bare hands! That's so satisfying!"
"When he took out that horrifying long sword, I thought that Glory Sect was invincible. But when Junior Master Lin slapped it out so casually, I knew that I was overthinking things."
"Look at those Jiuxiao Sect disciples! Their faces are all pale!"
...
"Do you dare to receive a brick from me?" This was the third time Lin Fan spoke up.
Under the glow of the sun, the red brick in his right hand shone even brighter and redder.
The weather changed as the wind stopped blowing.
Time seemed to have stopped. Lin Fan just stood there, staring at Xinfeng with those calm eyes of his.
Lin Fan could not tolerate this little bastard acting all high and mighty like this.
You can be a coward, you can be a wretch. Lin Fan could tolerate all of these. He would treat them like dust and sweep them away with a wave of his sleeves. But why must you act all high and mighty?
Don't you know that I, Lin Fan, hate pretentious people the most?
Xinfeng looked at Lin Fan, his heart thumping. He had a suffocating feeling, but he hated this feeling.
The person in front of him was a genius disciple of Glory Sect. How could he lose to him?
Then, he looked at the red brick in Lin Fan's right hand. It was a very ordinary brick, and it didn't have any True Essence fluctuations.
This was not a Xuan weapon, nor was it a divine weapon.
Could it be …
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Xinfeng's mind. This man before him was not trying to do anything to him. Instead, he was trying to give Jiuxiao Sect a way out of this embarrassing situation. Hence, he took out an ordinary brick.
What would happen if the brick hit him? Xinfeng didn't even have to think about it to know that the brick was broken into pieces just like his sword.
And just like that, they could completely call it even. No one could blame the other, and this matter would come to an end just like that. They could properly welcome the Battle of the Strongest Heaven's Favorites.
"HAHA …!" Xinfeng, who had thought through everything, burst out laughing. He had seen through everything. All of this was just a way out of this embarrassing situation.
For the sake of Jiuxiao Sect's reputation, so what if he was smacked by this brick?
Wuya and Liang Yichu exchanged glances. Just like Xinfeng, both of them had a clear idea of what to do.
This brick looked extremely ordinary, without a single trace of True Energy. Given Xinfeng's physical body state, there was no way he would be hurt by a simple smack.
Even though Wuya and Liang Yichu had their fair share of bickering, their relationship was deep. Now that things had come to this, even though both of them were on the losing end, they could call it even.
Looking at Lin Fan, Wuya nodded his head in agreement. This lad was smart, and knew how to maintain the relationship between two sects.
A disciple like this who knew how to maintain the reputation of a sect was something Wuya had high hopes for. Even though this lad was the sixth generation disciple of Nameless Peak's Saint Devil Sect, Saint Devil Sect was still a branch sect of Glory Sect.
If they were to nurture this lad properly, it would be more than enough for him to inherit the position of Grandmaster in the future.
Wuya did not reply. Everything would have to wait until this brick landed. From now on, he should pay more attention to Lin Fan, and perhaps even recommend him to the Grandmaster.
An outstanding disciple was important to a sect. But a sensible and outstanding disciple was even rarer.
To be the Grandmaster, one not only needed to be strong, but more importantly, one had to have a smooth heart.
"Brother Yichu, since my disciple has received a sword, let's endure it for a while before having our meal." Wuya said.
Looking at Wuya's expression, Liang Yichu chuckled and gave him a thumbs up, expressing how fortunate Glory Sect was to have such a sensible disciple.
"Disciple, since that's the case, receive a brick then." Liang Yichu smiled.
"Yes." Xinfeng was not afraid at all. Receiving a brick wasn't a big deal, after all. Besides, this was just an ordinary brick.
Xinfeng felt a sense of kinship with Liang Yichu.
Both of them had similar personalities, and were in the same situation at the same time. Therefore, they were somewhat compatible.
Once this was over, Xinfeng would not mind having a friend for the first time in his entire life.
Xinfeng looked at Lin Fan intently. Within those arrogant eyes of his, he imprinted Lin Fan's image into his heart.
'You're my friend, Xinfeng!'
"Come on." Xinfeng raised his head proudly. At the same time, he tilted his body slightly and stretched his head forward, as though he wanted to let Lin Fan have a better time.
Lin Fan laughed coldly in his heart. Looking at the Nine Five Legendary Brick in his hands, he finally had a use for such a legendary weapon.
"Alright … don't worry. There won't be any injuries." Lin Fan replied.
Xinfeng lowered his head and let out a smile. Naturally, there wouldn't be any injuries. After all, he was a genius disciple of Jiuxiao Sect. How could he not even be able to withstand a normal brick?
'Don't worry, friend. I've understood your heart now.'
Lin Fan's right hand moved slightly, as though he had lost all strength.
When the surrounding disciples caught sight of this, they were bewildered as well. What in the world was going on?
But in the next second, everyone instantly understood.
'BAM!'
It was a light touch.
Lin Fan turned around and kept the brick in his storage without even looking at it.
"How disappointing. He can't even withstand a single blow …" Lin Fan let out a long sigh and pointed his finger at Xinfeng's forehead.
"BOOM!"
Something unbelievable happened. Xinfeng's body collapsed onto the ground just like that.
At this moment, the surroundings were silent. Everyone's eyes were wide open. They didn't understand what was going on.
Lin Fan looked at Senior Elder Wuya and nodded his head gently. He then walked off into the distance. Gradually, a voice came from not too far away.
"So this is all a genius disciple of Jiuxiao Sect is capable of …"
The figure disappeared. But the voice was just like Lei Ting's voice, exploding within the disciples of both sects, lingering for a long time.
Looking at the disappearing back view of Lin Fan, Wuya then looked at the collapsed Xinfeng. He was dumbfounded.
Could it be that we are overthinking all of this?
