He would reach the top and look down upon all the other mountains.
But to Zhang Ergou, his life was on the brink of destruction.
That pair of pitiful eyes looked at the weeds that were as tall as half a person swaying with the wind. It was so lively and moving.
There was no end in sight. Other than the two-story wooden house, there was nothing else.
Being poor was not scary. The key was being poor to the point of despair. That was really scary.
Could it be that I, Zhang Ergou, am going to live here forever? Am I really going to become a disciple here?
No …
Zhang Ergou looked up at the sky, trying his best to stop his tears from flowing, because this really made him sad.
Despair, deep despair. He could not see any future.
…
"How is it?" Lin Fan looked at the mountain that belonged to him and felt much better. On the stone tablet at the entrance, there were three words that represented everything. It would be the symbol of the Saint Devil Sect.
"Good, a paradise on earth, a paradise on earth. This place is so close to nature and so far away from the hustle and bustle of the crowd. The autumn wind blowing on my body is so refreshing. My Lord, this is a paradise." Zhang Ergou's expression became serious as he spoke.
"Yes, I think so too. Alright, let me introduce myself."
"I am Lin Fan, the sixth grand master of the Saint Devil Sect, and also the owner of this nameless mountain." At this moment, Lin Fan stood at the edge of the mountain with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance.
His long hair swayed in the wind.
Zhang Ergou could not help but be stunned. What a domineering man.
…
"Now, I will give you an important mission. This mission is related to whether the Saint Devil Sect can survive for thousands of years, and whether it can truly rise again. Are you willing to accept it?" Lin Fan looked at Zhang Ergou with a serious expression, as if he was about to entrust him with something important.
Zhang Ergou, who had already lost hope for the future, was infected by Lin Fan's heavy tone. His expression, which looked as if his parents had died, instantly disappeared.
Now that he had nowhere to go, returning to the servant side would only lead to death. Why not just stay here and become a glorious disciple of the Saint Devil Sect? If the sect really did prosper in the future, then no matter what, I, Er Gou, would be the second strongest person in the sect.
"Grandmaster, please instruct me! I, Ergou, am willing to go through fire and water for you!" Zhang Ergou replied excitedly.
"Good, not bad. I am very pleased." Lin Fan nodded. He had chosen the wrong person. The fact that Er Gou had such determination was a great victory.
"Do you see the lush green life in front of you?" Lin Fan pointed at the endless green grass as if he was talking about mountains and rivers.
"Yes, I see it. The lush green life force made me realize that we should be like them and live on unyieldingly." Zhang Ergou nodded his head. He had already thought it through. Since it was impossible for him to go back, he might as well spend the rest of his life here. Since the Grand Master had such an imposing aura, he would definitely not be any weaker in the future.
"Alright, take out your full strength and build a solid foundation for the sect that will never perish for eternity. Get rid of everything that stands before you!" Lin Fan said with a raging aura.
To Lin Fan, this was a huge project, one that required a huge amount of motivation.
If he did not have enough determination, it was definitely impossible to complete.
"Yes." Zhang Ergou did not hear what the grandmaster said clearly, but he felt that the grandmaster's words were very exciting. The blood that had settled down in his body started to boil ferociously after hearing the grandmaster's words.
"Ah …!" Zhang Ergou was dumbfounded after a short while of excitement.
"Grandmaster, what did you just say? I didn't hear it clearly. " Zhang Ergou was dumbfounded. He was affected by the grandmaster's words, and his brain did not filter any information at all.
Now that he had regained his composure, he thought about it carefully. He was so shocked that he could not speak.
Lin Fan looked at Zhang Ergou and shook his head slightly. Then, he turned around and walked to a huge rock. His palms gently caressed the rough surface of the rock, and his expression gradually became nostalgic.
"There was once a disciple of the Saint Devil Sect. Unfortunately, because of his inborn hearing problems, he sometimes couldn't hear what others were saying. Then one day, an elder told him something, and he said he couldn't hear it clearly. Then …" Lin Fan sighed, and with a light pat, the giant rock instantly broke into pieces.
"Grandmaster, after that … what happened …?" Zhang Ergou gulped nervously.
"After that, he ended up like this rock." Lin Fan pointed at the broken rocks on the ground and said.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ergou's face turned pale.
"You didn't hear it clearly just now. Let me repeat it to you then." Lin Fan said.
Zhang Ergou's body trembled. Looking at the grandmaster's palm, he nodded immediately, "I heard it clearly. I heard it clearly."
Looking at Zhang Ergou's expression, Lin Fan smiled.
"Hmm, it's good that you heard it clearly. Hurry up then." Lin Fan said.
"Yes …" Upon hearing this, Zhang Ergou did not dare to hesitate any longer. He dove head first into the thick weeds.
Zhang Ergou threw himself into the weeds with tears in his eyes. He held a long sword in one hand and started to work with tears and snot on his face.
At this moment, he understood. The reason he came up to the mountain was to get rid of weeds.
The distance from his goal was too far. He did not know if he could reach it in this lifetime. Who knew if he would tire himself to death in this pile of weeds?
Looking at Zhang Ergou's back view, Lin Fan nodded his head in satisfaction.
At this moment, Lin Fan felt that it was time for him to make plans for his future.
No matter if he wanted to prop up the sect, he had to clean up this place first. After all, he was going to live here for a long time.
In Glory Sect, there were two things that Lin Fan felt were the most important.
Cultivating pills and crafting weapons.
Lin Fan's crafting profession was no problem for him to craft upper graded weapons. As for cultivating pills, he had yet to learn it.
Based on his current situation, there were three ways for him to raise his cultivation base.
First, cultivate by himself.
Second, take pills.
Third, fight monsters.
But based on the speed of leveling up, if he were outside, fighting monsters would be the fastest way. But now that he was in the sect, he could only take pills.
But of these three, Lin Fan would not give up on any of them. As long as there was a chance, he would definitely go for it.
"Cut the weeds properly. I have to make a trip down the mountain." Lin Fan said to Zhang Ergou, who was struggling in the weeds.
"Yes, Master. Rest in peace." Zhang Ergou replied without turning his head back.
Lin Fan glanced at him. To Lin Fan, these words seemed to have a different meaning. But forget it. He would just go and learn how to cultivate pills first.
Lin Fan had already made up his mind. From now on, he would cultivate pills and take pills at the same time.
If everything went smoothly, he should be able to raise his cultivation base in no time.
By then, he would just have to nurture the sect properly. It wouldn't take long for it to regain its former glory.
Nine sects, Heaven Queen, Yan Huang, you guys had better wash your butts clean and wait for me to make you guys cry.
Destroying Master Lin's sect? You guys sure have guts.
