From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master-Chapter 286: North Realm

"Pills? I don’t have much need for them now. Maybe take it that you owe me a favor? Return the favor when I ask for it." Lin Fan said.

Governor Lu glanced over at Sima Liang.

With a huge smile, Sima Liang just nodded.

Urging him to accept Lin Fan’s conditions.

Governor Lu then thought about his son, and he imagined him dressed in a general’s armor.

Every parent would be proud of their son if they could achieve it.

"All right. I accept it." Governor Lu agreed.

"Great, just let me know how I can help." Lin Fan said, raising his teacup and toasting Governor Lu.

"The Raging Tiger Army is tasked to clear the north, pushing the Hulu Tribe further back.

"Whoever can do so successfully among the candidates to be the next General shall win."

Governor Lu briefed Lin Fan on the situation.

"When will this be? I’ve got to be somewhere else first." Lin Fan replied.

"It’s a mess right now in the Raging Tiger Army with everyone trying to grab power.

"They will move off at earliest in the next few weeks." Governor Lu said.

"Great. It’s a deal then, just inform Sima Liang when the time comes." Lin Fan said and bid farewell to Governor Lu.

Things were lining up smoothly for him.

If Lu Ding gets to be general because of his help, Governor Lu would have to be on his side when the time comes.

...

The following days were spent stocking up and preparing for the trip to Artifacts Mountains.

Guo He Ru had finished another batch of his Heavenly Rejuvenate Pills.

Lin Fan and Ho Ming stocked up on them as they had proven to be crucial for their survival.

This trip didn’t seem to be dangerous, but it was best to be prepared.

He also stocked up on food, clothing, water and other essential items.

And of course, a hotpot dinner with Lee Xiao and Tai Lan.

He made a promise, and he was not about to break it.

"Here, we brought some demonic beast meat." Lee Xiao said and nudged Tai Lan as they entered the wooden hut.

Tai Lan lifted his hand that held a packet of demonic beast meat wrapped in oil paper.

"Oh, here you go."

He placed it onto the table and rubbed his stomach.

It growled and Tai Lan scratched his head in embarrassment.

"You shouldn’t have. We have more than enough." Lin Fan pointed to Ho Jie who was busy in the kitchen.

Lee Xiao and Tai Lan glanced over and saw plates of demonic beast meat sliced and placed on them.

Ho Jie turned and gave them a chuckle, "Dinner will be served in a minute, take a seat."

Lee Xiao sat down with Lin Fan nervously.

He then pulled Tai Lan’s robe for him to sit down.

Lin Fan shook his head and poured them cups of tea.

"I wish I could go with you." Lee Xiao exclaimed as he thought about what he had gained by going on a mission with Lin Fan.

The other disciples were full of envy when they saw Lee Xiao and Tai Lan getting cultivation lessons from Hun Yen Kun.

His Swordsmanship was now worthy of their attention.

Not to mention the bottles of Blood and Qi Restoration pills that they had.

It would take them a year to save enough to buy so many.

Yet, Lee Xiao and Tai Lan were able to have so many after a mission.

Lee Xiao knew what he and Tai Lan owed to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan shrugged and said, "Focus on your cultivation, there might be something coming soon. Best to be prepared."

"Something?" Lee Xiao mumbled to himself and glanced over at Tai Lan.

Tai Lan was swallowing a mouthful of saliva at the prospect of having a hearty meal.

The hotpot blew their minds as it was beyond anything they had before.

The meat after boiling it in the hot soup was fresh and tender.

Nothing like the overcooked meat they were used to.

...

North Realm.

Huo Ren Yi carried a little bottle on his waist as he stood at the entrance of the realm.

"My Lord, I shall find the Dark Ring Temple and get them to help us."

The content of the bottle swirled, and a weak voice came into Huo Ren Yi’s mind.

"I’ve underestimated Qing Feng Sect... Don’t make the same mistake as me..."

"Don’t worry my Lord. My Heaven Devouring Technique has ascended after surviving the lightning strikes."

Huo Ren Yi replied, and he took in a deep breath and entered the North Realm again.

The last time they entered, they were able to leave unscathed.

But this time they would have to take a bigger risk going deeper into the realm.

The Dark Ring Temple housed several ancestors of the dark cultivators.

If Huo Ren Yi was able to persuade them, he would be able to get them to help the Dark Lord in his plans.

...

Bian Jing, Capital of Quan Dynasty.

The Emperor was fuming and kicked hard at the chief eunuch.

"I’m sorry, Your Majesty." The chief eunuch rolled down the small flight of stairs in front of the Emperor’s seat.

He scurried and turned around to face the Emperor, kneeling down and kowtowing hard onto the brick floor.

Blood started to appear on his forehead.

The Emperor threw a teacup at the chief eunuch and said, "Enough! I want solutions not a kowtowing slave!"

"Let me figure it out, Your Majesty!" The chief eunuch stopped his kowtowing and held his head low.

His idea for General Liu Feng to ambush the Qing Feng Sect and Dark Lotus Sect had backfired.

Now, without General Liu Feng, the Hulu Tribe was starting to test the Quan Dynasty at the northern borders again.

The Emperor had to find someone capable enough to withstand them soon.

Everyone in the imperial court started to send gifts to the candidates, trying to gain influence with the future General.

This was far from what the Emperor had wanted.

All of them were just eyeing his seat as Emperor.

They shall pay a price for this.

Finally, the chief eunuch spoke softly, "Your Majesty, maybe it’s time to openly go against the Qing Feng Sect and the other sects."
