Chapter 379: Conflict Amongst Transmission Masters |
There was a slight nervousness in Dongfang Yaoyao’s heart: “This person’s name is Li Fan, he is…”
Being concise, she briefly introduced Li Fan’s life to Luxi Chan.
Although Huang Fusu did not actively mention this person’s information, Dongfang Yaoyao sensed something unusual in his gaze towards Li Fan that day.
Knowing well what kind of person her brother was, Dongfang Yaoyao immediately investigated secretly.
Whether it was the various extraordinary actions rumored about Li Fan, or the astonishing deeds spreading rapidly,
Dongfang Yaoyao believed that this person was not simple.
Perhaps the reason Huang Fusu came unexpectedly might be because of Li Fan.
And when Chief Luxi suddenly asked, it indeed confirmed her speculation.
Dongfang Yaoyao naturally understood this very well.
As a subordinate, the key was to cooperate well with the leader.
If one acted too clever and disrupted someone’s plan above, having no future prospects would be a minor issue.
It’s just that one might end up dying inexplicably.
Thinking of this, Dongfang Yaoyao dared not be negligent and meticulously recounted the surface information she had gathered.
Luxi Chan noticed that these two subordinates seemed to have some ulterior motives.
However, she didn’t intend to delve deeper.
Because there weren’t many things in this world worthy of her attention, and these two Nascent Soul Formation Masters obviously weren’t among them.
It was her daughter’s unexpected savior who caught her attention.
She had heard of Li Fan’s name before.
Being able to risk his life to save others in danger was indeed very rare in today’s era.
What’s more important was that even at the end of his lifespan, he could still hold the frontline in formation construction, which was worthy of being touted and celebrated.
Perhaps this person was truly a saint by nature, with high morality; or perhaps the techniques he cultivated were special, and this action was purely profitable.
For the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, it didn’t matter.
What mattered was that he really did those things.
What mattered was that the majority of cultivators in the world believed in him so much.
For the name of a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator to reach her ears,
There must be some familiar hands behind the scenes.
Luxi Chan was not surprised by this.
If she guessed correctly, if Li Fan were to fall before completing the formation, there would still be someone within the alliance to save his life.
Like using a thousand pieces of gold to buy a horse, they are doing another round of publicity.
Everything must be fully utilized, which can also be considered as the consistent means of action for that group of people.
A few figures of Transmission Masters flashed through Luxi Chan’s mind, and a shadow suddenly surged in her heart.
As the first group of people who actively followed the Transmission Celestial and established the initial Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance,
Transmission Masters had been in control of the highest ruling power of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance since the disappearance of the Celestial.
Regardless of cultivation level, none of them were inferior to Luxi Chan.
Just the ability to survive countless calamities over thousands of years until now made everyone not dare to underestimate them.
Not to mention, they also subtly held the method to restrain the Tianxuan Mirror…
“The Tianxuan Soul Lock is just the first step.”
Luxi Chan snorted coldly in her heart, suppressing her thoughts.
Her gaze then fell on the aged cultivator below.
“Thinking they have everything under control, unaware of what reaction there might be if I intervene.”
Before this, although he had been her daughter’s savior,
Luxi Chan didn’t have the intention to specially repay the favor.
After all, he had saved her daughter without asking for anything in return and left in a hurry.
In Luxi Chan’s eyes, it meant that Li Fan had given up this opportunity himself.
However, now this person appeared before her as a pawn of that group of people, which made Luxi Chan change her mind.
After a brief contemplation, she checked Li Fan’s ranking on the Great Comparison Golden List.
“Forty-fifth.”
“Perhaps I can lend him a hand…”
Thinking of this, she looked at Dongfang Yaoyao and Huang Fusu, asking, “What do you think of this person?”
Huang Fusu and Dongfang Yaoyao glanced at each other, murmuring in their hearts.
If you specifically ask like this, can we still speak ill of him?
Having a backstage is indeed great.
With envy in their hearts, the two of them praised Li Fan one after another, exaggerating his achievements.
They made him seem like someone from heaven, incomparable to anyone on earth.
If Li Fan were here to hear these praises about himself, he would probably blush involuntarily.
When it was almost enough, Luxi Chan nodded, “He has made so many sacrifices for the spread of the Tianxuan Soul Lock formation, yet there has been no corresponding reward within the alliance. It really shouldn’t be.”
“Continuing like this, wouldn’t it disappoint cultivators throughout the world?”
Huangfu and Dongfang were both astute individuals.
Hearing Luxi Chief’s implication, they were surprised but dared not speak up.
They only heard her continue, “If I were unaware, it would be fine. But now that I have personally seen it, I definitely can’t ignore it.”
“However, this is ultimately a matter of stepping in for someone else. It would be troublesome if it causes misunderstandings and rumors.”
“At this critical moment, our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance should be united from top to bottom.”
“Do you two have any good ideas?”
Suddenly, the two remembered some rumors they occasionally heard, and after a little thought, they understood the meaning behind Luxi Chief’s words.
However, such high-level struggles were not something they, as small pawns, could get involved in.
They felt helpless.
Feeling the continuous scrutiny from Luxi Chan, both of them felt an indescribable pressure.
It’s unreasonable to remain silent when the leader asks.
With sweat breaking out on their foreheads, at a critical moment, Huangfu suddenly remembered his conversation with Li Fan before.
With a sudden inspiration, he gritted his teeth and said, “To let the Chief know, subordinates have had several heart-to-heart conversations with Li Fan before. Although his lifespan is nearing its end, he is still willing to dedicate himself until his last moment.”
“Our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance has never mistreated those who have merits. However, despite his efforts, he is still ranked around forty to fifty. If we were to give him special treatment, other cultivators ranked higher than him might have objections.”
“If his ranking were slightly higher, it would be more reasonable.”
Huangfu paused for a moment, then continued, “This person once mentioned to me privately that although he has no regrets in death, he regrets not being able to explore the many wonders of our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance…”
This sudden remark seemed to come out of nowhere.
However, Luxi Chan and Dongfang Yaoyao, who were familiar with the rules of the Great Comparison Golden List, naturally understood the hidden meaning behind his words.
“That’s actually a good idea.” Luxi Chan nodded slightly, acknowledging Huangfu’s suggestion.
Huangfu couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Before he could relax, he heard Luxi Chief ask again.
“Do you have any recommended places to go?”
Huangfu’s heart tensed up again for a moment.
In a split second, recalling Li Fan’s words from before, Huangfu had no choice but to grit his teeth and say, “The Five Elements Grand Celestial, Endless Sea, and other secret realms, subordinates believe these are good choices.”
