Yao Wuxie harbored the dream of saving the world. Without a second thought, he decided to hang out with Lin Fan.
In Yao Wuxie's words …
"Right now, the people are living in an abyss of suffering. How can I stay out of it? I have to use my own hands to save them!"
Lin Fan was thoroughly touched by these words of Yao Wuxie. This was the bloody definition of a human with great ambitions!
...
A few days later …
Everyone gathered at Glory Sect.
"This time around, Glory Sect has invited all the Grandmasters of the major sects over. We've told them quite a bit, but we don't know what they're thinking about." With Yan Hongyu's presence, no one dared to go against him. But, what were the thoughts of those from the major sects?
Even Yan Hongyu wasn't too sure.
"I think they'll agree to it." Lin Fan chuckled. He wasn't worried about this at all.
"Right now, all the major sects are gathered at the main hall. Whether or not we can convince them later on will depend on you." Yan Hongyu said.
...
At the main hall outside …
All the Grandmasters and elders of the major sects were gathered at the main hall.
Glory Sect had come to their sects to lobby them.
Furthermore, they were in disbelief about this matter. How could the Upper Realm be like this?
This must be a hallucination!
"Grandmaster Wang, what do you think of this?" On the other hand, Grandmaster Long was hesitant. While Yan Hongyu's words were pretty scary, who knew whether or not he was just bluffing?
Grandmaster Wang's face was indifferent without a single bit of emotion, "Go with the flow."
The moment Grandmaster Long heard this, he exploded, "Grandmaster Wang, you're way too indecisive, aren't you?"
"Grandmaster Long, what do you mean by that? Go with the flow? How is that indecisive? The will of the masses cannot be disobeyed. "Grandmaster Wang replied.
Grandmaster Long looked at Grandmaster Wang. For a moment or so, he truly did not know how to reply. He then asked the other Grandmasters.
This was a huge matter!
If sects did not fight amongst themselves, would they still be considered sects?
Would there still be any meaning to life then?
"Guys, look! Grandmaster Xin's expression doesn't seem right! Why is it so red? Could he be constipated?" Some of the Grandmasters discussed cautiously.
But when Xinfeng looked over, everyone's expression changed back to normal, as though nothing had happened.
Xinfeng was extremely excited right now. Brother Lin was back!
However, he was also a little annoyed. Now that he had returned, he was not the first person to look for him. How annoying.
Even though it had been five years since they last met, Xinfeng couldn't help but feel excited.
As for the discussions of the other Grandmasters, Xinfeng heard them loud and clear. However, he did not want to lower himself to their level.
This group of people had nothing to do all day, gossiping all day long. They were even more womanly than women.
But then again, one couldn't really blame these sect leaders. Once their cultivation reached the pinnacle, they would be useless. Every day, if they weren't slacking off, they would be organizing disciples to fight with other sects.
In other words, he had too many good days.
"Thank you all for coming to Glory Sect." Just then, Yan Hongyu walked over slowly. Even though Zong Hentian was the Grandmaster right now, he was way too young. Yan Hongyu was afraid that he might not be able to hold the fort. Therefore, he had no choice but to step in personally.
"Brother Feng, it's been a long time." Lin Fan had long sensed an immense amount of resentment.
Evidently, the source of this vengeance was Xinfeng.
But then again, it made sense. Lin Fan must have some resentment towards him for not looking for him upon his return.
Looking at Lin Fan, Xinfeng could not help but walk up and give him a hug, "Brother Lin, you're finally back!"
At this moment, the various Grandmasters started discussing softly once more.
"Guys, look at Brother Feng's face! That expression! That expression! That expression! Something's not right!"
"Eh? Seems like it! "
"Brother Feng, don't tell me it's that?"
"That's hard to say. Everyone, don't lower your voices. We're all Grandmasters of major sects. Let's save some face!"
For these idle Grandmasters, catching a single piece of gossip was enough for them to talk about for at least a year.
Especially when it was about the Grandmaster of Jiuxiao Sect.
The passion they were exuding was incredible.
"Brother Feng, please don't take it to heart. I came back in a hurry this time around. There were too many things to do, and I couldn't make it to Jiuxiao Sect." Lin Fan said.
"It's alright, I understand. It's just that I heard that something big happened in the Upper World this time around. I wonder what's going on." Even though Xinfeng seemed fine on the surface, he was filled with displeasure in his heart.
Lin Fan nodded his head. He then looked at the masses, "Everyone, I am Lin Fan. The Upper World is known as the Ancient Saint World. Within it, the ancient race is suppressing the beings of the thousands of races out there. The situation is dire. Please take a look at it yourselves."
With a single thought, Lin Fan projected everything that had happened in the Ancient Saint World with his powers and projected it into the skies.
A scene unfolded. Everything that Lin Fan had seen and heard was recorded within.
All the Grandmasters of the major sects watched with a fixed gaze.
"Aiyah! This …!"
"Cruel!"
"This strange living being is so strong!"
"The ancient race devours living beings alive! That's way too evil!"
All the Grandmasters were captivated by the scene before them, each with a different expression.
Lin Fan couldn't be bothered to say anything more. Something like this had to be projected out so that they could comprehend it with their hearts. That would be even more useful than a thousand words from him.
Time passed by the seconds and minutes.
The Grandmasters were not the only ones who were trapped. Even Yan Hongyu and the others were in the same predicament.
They had not expected the Upper World to be this dangerous!
Lin Fan swept his robes and the scene disappeared.
"What do you think, everyone? Rather than waiting for death, why don't we give it our all? That way, we might still have a chance of survival. The Highest of the Ancient race isn't scary. What's scary is the Heaven's Will." Lin Fan said.
In the past, Lin Fan had thought that the Ancient Saint World would be liberated as long as the Highest of the Ancient race were killed. But by the looks of it, that wasn't the case at all.
The true enemy was the Heaven's Will.
The Heaven's Will of the Ancient Saint World was a thousand times scarier than the Highest.
Even though Lin Fan was strong alone, he wouldn't be able to withstand a gang attack.
"What do you guys think?" Lin Fan asked.
Everyone looked at one another, as though they were waiting for something.
"This is a serious problem."
"That's right! This is way too scary! To think that we wouldn't even be a match for a single Ancient race soldier!"
"Brother Lin, we'll do as you say. Jiuxiao Sect will always stand by your side." Xinfeng said.
"Xuanjian Sect as well." Xuan Yunxian added.
To Xuan Yunxian, if she didn't stand by her husband's side, what else could she do?
Grandmaster Wang had always adhered to the principle of going with the flow and following the will of the masses. Now that two major sects had expressed their stance, he naturally followed suit as well.
The other Grandmasters pondered for a moment before nodding their heads in agreement.
"Since that's the case, let's form an alliance then. Rather than being a pile of loose sand, why don't we form an alliance and fight against the Ancient race together?" Lin Fan said.
"Yes, that makes sense. In a situation like this, not forming an alliance would mean death."
"I agree."
"I agree as well."
"Everyone, in order to prevent me, Lin Fan, from monopolizing the authority, the leaders of this alliance can be chosen from the various sects." Lin Fan said.
"No, no, no! We believe in Glory Sect!"
"That's right! We believe that under your leadership, we'll definitely be able to obtain victory!"
"As for choosing the leaders from the various sects, let's just forget about it."
"You've been in the Ancient Saint World for such a long time now. You should be more familiar with it than any of us. Naturally, you'll be the leader."
The moment the Grandmasters of the various sects heard that the leaders were to be chosen from them, they naturally exploded.
This was a dangerous job that they did not want to be involved in.
To them, even if the heavens fell, there would be someone taller to hold it up.
In any case, they would fight wherever they were pointed at. As for the position of the leader of the alliance, forget it. Just the thought of it was dangerous.
Lin Fan sighed. Thinking about how he had released this image, he felt that it was wrong of him to do so.
To think that he had frightened them before even entering the Ancient Saint World. That was a sin as well.
