A few days later, Lin Fan arrived at the town with the members of the Hidden Dragon Sect.
This time, there wasn’t a procession out to welcome him since Yue Lan had received his letter.
They quickly made their way to the building that was set as the town hall of this dungeon town. There, Lin Fan found that Yue Lan and the rest were already waiting for her.
When they saw the group that Lin Fan led in, they all turned to Mu Bao Bao who just shook her head back at them.
The moment that they saw this, they all couldn’t help revealing anxious looks.
Lin Fan had explained the general situation in the letter that he had sent to Yue Lan, but the most important thing was that he told them just how strong the group from the Hidden Dragon Sect was.
And Mu Bao Bao’s action just now confirmed yet.
She had just told them that she couldn’t beat them.
After all, there were five Golden Core Cultivators that came with Lin Fan.
It was the sect master and four of the elders.
The other elders had stayed in the Hidden Dragon Sect to protect it just in case anything happened.
But in truth, they had all wanted to come with Lin Fan.
If it wasn’t for Lin Fan stopping them in the end, they might have really all come to the dungeon town.
After meeting the girls, the sect master and the elders were all shocked. After all, they had never seen such beautiful girls before.
There was even a trace of envy that filled their hearts when the thoughts of their ancestor being able to have his way with these girls now that he had taken over Lin Fan, but that quickly disappeared because of their fear of the ancestor. This was the ancestor, there was an instinctive fear that made them unable to act up against him.
At the same time though, they were worried that these girls would be able to see through the ancestor.
The ancestor was different from Lin Fan, even if he had done his best to act like Lin Fan, they weren’t familiar enough with Lin Fan to tell if he was doing a good job or not. So in the end, they had no idea if it would fool them or not.
After a long period of silence, Lin Fan finally said, “You can all leave now.”
The sect master and the elders were all surprised when they heard this.
The sect master quickly said, “Saint, we can’t just…”
Before he could finish, Lin Fan raised his hand to cut him off, “Enough, just go.”
The sect master and the elders all had hesitant looks on their faces, but they still left in the end.
After all, if they made too much of a fuss, the girls would naturally get suspicious.
So they could only accede and let Lin Fan head off with them.
But they wouldn’t remain idle since they had their own things to do while Lin Fan was here convincing the girls.
They would be bringing the Hidden Dragon Sect to this dungeon town in the future, so the first thing that they had to do was scout out the town for their future development.
While they were sure that the ancestor would help them with what they needed, it was best for them to scout out the area themselves since the ancestor would only be able to do so much as he was pretending to be Lin Fan.
After they were gone, Lin Fan led the girls into a special room that had been prepared.
This was a room that Lin Fan had planned for a long time and it had only just been finished lately.
He never thought that he would be using it so soon.
As soon as they came in, the first thing that Lin Fan did was…
Let out a long sigh.
He no longer needed to pretend once he entered this room because this room was a special room for him to relax in.
The room was made of a special material that he had bought from the system.
As for why it was special, it was a material that could keep in all sound and could keep out all spiritual sense.
This was a room that couldn’t be spied on at all.
Once they were settled in, Yue Lan immediately asked, “What happened?”
Lin Fan looked at all the girls looking at him with stern looks.
It was clear that they were angry at him and in cases like this, he knew that his only choice was…
So without hesitation, his hands came forward and his head followed after, falling to the ground as he adopted the traditional pose of apology.
He dogeza’d in front of them and said, “I’m sorry, it was my fault. I never expected things to develop like this.”
All of them were taken aback when they saw this, but seeing how sincere he was, they knew that it was him.
They had been worried that he had been taken over by something after seeing how close he had been with those people from the Hidden Dragon Sect. As well, they had seen how differently he had been acting compared to usual.
But seeing him act this way in front of them, they knew that this was the usual Lin Fan.
After all, it was rare to find someone that acted this way in this cultivation world.
So after letting out secret sighs of relief, Yue Lan asked, “What happened?”
Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile as he started telling them the story of his time at the Hidden Dragon Sect.
They listened in silence the entire time until they heard what happened with the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor.
As soon as they heard this, they couldn’t help revealing wary looks as they looked at Lin Fan.
After all, something like body possession wasn’t that easy to handle, so they were worried that Lin Fan might have been affected even if he said he wasn’t.
In the end, he had no choice but to let Mu Bao Bao search him with her spiritual sense to ensure that all traces of the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor’s soul was gone.
But after confirming this, it still didn’t relieve the doubts that they had about this matter.
After all, Lin Fan was only a Foundation Realm Cultivator. How did he resist the body possession of a higher realm cultivator like this?
Seeing all of them looking at him with doubtful looks, Lin Fan just revealed a bitter smile since he knew how unlikely this sounded. However, this was something that he wasn’t willing to tell anyone yet or else he would have already told them about it.
So after a long period of silence, Lin Fan said with a serious look, “I have a special artifact that allows me to resist things like this, that’s all I can tell you.”
Seeing this rare serious look from Lin Fan, the girls all knew better than to ask and just to trust him on this matter.
After all, with how well they knew him, it was impossible for him to fool them like this.
Once that had been settled, Lin Fan told Mu Bao Bao about his plan to incorporate the Hidden Dragon Sect into the Love Sect.
Mu Bao Bao was taken aback when she heard this, but she didn’t reject his suggestion. She knew that there were pros and cons to this suggestion, but for Lin Fan to make this suggestion meant that he had already thought it through.
After her misjudgment of Han Fu Rong back then, she had already started questioning her own judgement. At the same time, she was filled with a sort of dependence towards Lin Fan.
So even if his decisions might seem like a mistake, she would still consider them and accept them in the end.
After a long period of silence, Mu Bao Bao suddenly said, “Since they are being incorporated into the Love Sect, I think that you should become the sect master.”
Lin Fan’s mouth dropped when he heard this sudden suggestion.
It wasn’t just Lin Fan, all of the other girls were shocked by this.
They all tried talking her out of this, but Mu Bao Bao shook her head and explained, “It’s the best decision right now. It will not only bind the Hidden Dragon Sect to the Love Sect, it will also be for the best since Lin Fan has been the one developing the Love Sect the entire time.”
Lin Fan said with a serious look, “The Love Sect is something that the elders have left in your hands, how could I take that away? Not to mention, I haven’t been in the Love Sect all that long, so I doubt the others will accept this.”
Mu Bao Bao shook her head and revealed a smile this time as she asked, “Do you really think that they wouldn’t accept this? They have already been waiting for this to happen since they know that I’m not suited for this position.”
Lin Fan was about to say something, but Mu Bao Bao suddenly came forward to press her finger on his lips before saying, “Please, take this position. It’s better if you’re the sect master, you’ll lead the Love Sect to much greater heights than me.”
Lin Fan looked into her eyes as she said this and he could see the determination that was in them.
After a long silence, he said with a nod, “Alright.”
Mu Bao Bao revealed a joyful smile when she heard this, but at the same time, there was a mist that filled her eyes.
She was happy that she had found someone to help her carry on the legacy of the Love Sect, but she was also sad that she couldn’t do it herself.
She had wanted to be the one to revive the Love Sect in honour of the sect master and all of the elders who had died. This was the little wish that she had when she had been entrusted with the legacy of the Love Sect.
But she knew that Lin Fan was the best choice for this, so she didn’t hesitate to hand it over to him.
Lin Fan could see the mist in her eyes and he knew what she was thinking, so he reached out to wipe them for her.
Mu Bao Bao felt his gentle touch and said with a wider smile, “I’m fine.”
Lin Fan hesitated before giving a nod. Then he said under his breath, “It’s a good thing that she made this decision. She really isn’t suited for being the sect master in the first place.”
Although he said this under his breath, Mu Bao Bao was a powerful cultivator and could hear everything that he said.
That smile on her face turned dark as she looked at him and asked, “What is that supposed to mean?”
Lin Fan revealed an awkward smile and quickly raised his hands as he said, “Nothing, nothing at all.”
Everyone on the side revealed a smile when they saw this.
After all, they knew that Lin Fan had said this on purpose to cheer Mu Bao Bao up.
