Chapter 1330: Chapter 880: The Invitation to Fire Origin Peak

Lin Feng called out to Yama Demon Saint several times, but the other party still ignored him.

Shaking his head helplessly, Lin Feng stopped calling and sat in silent contemplation.

He didn’t bother thinking about the Heavenly Tribulation since it didn’t affect him much; his main concern was the current dilemma he was facing.

After considering for a long time, he still thought that going to the Inner Mansion’s Fire Element Peak was much better than joining other sects.

Moreover, with the Fire Yuan Saint Master backing him, not even Taishi Xuan or Ke Youtian Han, nor the entire lineage of the Taishi Family, would easily dare to touch him.

Additionally, this would better provide protection for Nie Qian and Han Ying.

However, before the battle with Leng Jiang, Mentor Mu Li had mentioned he only had a month to consider, otherwise the opportunity would be lost.

Now the one-month period had long passed, and Lin Feng wondered if the Fire Yuan Saint Master would still accept him!

Of course, he had to go and try to find out.

Immediately, Lin Feng left his tower and headed to Mentor Mu Li’s residence.

This matter still needed Mentor Mu Li to mediate; he couldn’t go directly to Fire Element Peak.

In no time, Lin Feng arrived at the courtyard where Mentor Mu Li lived and promptly knocked on the door.

However, after knocking, there was no response from within; Mentor Mu Li was not present.

Feeling helpless, Lin Feng had no choice but to wait outside the door.

This wait lasted for three whole hours before Mentor Mu Li finally returned!

Whoosh!

Dressed in billowy white robes, Mu Li flew over from afar and landed beside Lin Feng.

"What are you doing here?" Mu Li asked coldly.

"Um... Mentor Mu Li, I wanted to ask if Senior Fire Yuan Saint Master is still willing to accept me?" Lin Feng asked awkwardly, stumbling over his words. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Having previously rejected the offer, it was truly embarrassing to return now.

"Have you thought it through?" Mu Li asked with a blank expression.

"I’ve thought it through!" Lin Feng nodded.

"Come with me!" Mu Li said softly and then turned to fly off into the distance.

Lin Feng immediately followed.

In no time, they arrived at the gates of the Inner Mansion and entered inside.

Re-entering the Inner Mansion, Lin Feng still felt incredibly astonished; countless peaks floated in the vast starry sky, exuding a majestic aura.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Mu Li and Lin Feng, one in front of the other, flew toward Fire Element Peak, where the Fire Yuan Saint Master resided.

Soon, they landed on Fire Element Peak.

The enormous Fire Element Peak was larger than any of the Nine Peaks of the Heavenly Spirit Sect but was sparsely populated and incredibly quiet.

Mu Li led Lin Feng once again to the main hall in the center.

Then, they stood silently waiting outside the door.

"Come in!" A moment later, the aged voice of the Fire Yuan Saint Master echoed from within the hall.

Mu Li pushed open the hall doors and led Lin Feng inside.

Inside the hall, the slightly plump and white-haired Fire Yuan Saint Master remained seated on a cushion with eyes closed, unchanged from Lin Feng’s last visit.

"Mentor, Lin Feng is here!" Mu Li bowed in greeting in front of the Fire Yuan Saint Master.

"Greetings, Senior!" Lin Feng also greeted respectfully, knowing he was seeking help and could not afford to lack courtesy.

The wrinkled Fire Yuan Saint Master opened his deep and weathered eyes, quietly gazing at Lin Feng.

"Did you only come to me because you had no other choice?" the Fire Yuan Saint Master asked plainly.

Uh~~

Hearing this, Lin Feng felt a bit embarrassed, realizing the other party was well aware of his situation and knew he came only out of necessity.

"Thank you for your high regard, Senior. It was presumptuous of me before!" Lin Feng clasped his fists and said.

"For thousands of years, you are the only disciple who has ever refused me," the Fire Yuan Saint Master said.

It had always been others coming to him seeking counsel, but for Lin Feng, it was the other way around.

Lin Feng gave an awkward smile, unsure of how to respond.

After a brief pause, the Fire Yuan Saint Master spoke softly, "Build yourself a dwelling on the mountain."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng felt a surge of joy, not expecting the master to agree so easily!

He had thought the master might make things difficult for him or require an apology, but hadn’t expected such generosity.

"Thank you, Senior!"

Lin Feng immediately expressed his gratitude, then cautiously asked, "Senior, I have two close friends; would it be possible for them to live with me?"

Upon hearing this, the Fire Yuan Saint Master’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Seeing this, Lin Feng’s heart sank; if the master refused, he might be safe, but Nie Qian and Han Ying would be in trouble.

"Fine!" After a short pause, the Fire Yuan Saint Master’s eyebrows relaxed, and he nodded slightly.

"Thank you, Senior!" Lin Feng was overjoyed; with the master’s consent, he, Nie Qian, and Han Ying were all free of worry.

The three of them living on Fire Element Peak would nominally be under the Fire Yuan Saint Master’s protection, and neither Taishi Xuan nor Ke Youtian Han would dare openly oppose them!

"Go on!" The Fire Yuan Saint Master waved his hand, signaling a dismissal.

"I take my leave, Senior!" Lin Feng bowed and then turned to leave the hall.

After Lin Feng left, Mu Li glanced at the Fire Yuan Saint Master and, slightly indignant, said, "Mentor, Lin Feng was so unappreciative before, and you just agreed so easily?"

Mu Li felt somewhat stifled; having invited Lin Feng to Fire Element Peak multiple times before, he had been refused each time.

Despite this lack of consideration, the Fire Yuan Saint Master had nevertheless accepted him so readily!

Mu Li held great respect for the Fire Yuan Saint Master, so naturally felt some resentment toward Lin Feng for not showing due respect.
