From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master-Chapter 297 : Ziwei Star

Inside the cave, there were torches burning, lighting it up in a warm glow.

It started to get even warmer as they walked deeper into the cave.

They stopped when they reached a small enclosure.

There were piles and piles of artifacts strewn around the area.

"Take a seat." Su Qi Nian pointed at some stone chairs, and he proceeded to make some tea.

Lin Fan and the others sat down.

With a hot teapot in his hand, Su Qi Nian came over and poured them a cup of tea each.

When he was done, Lin Fan introduced themselves and asked, "So, what are the options that we have?"

Su Qi Nian sat down, smelled the aroma of the tea from the teacup and took a sip.

He smiled and said, "I've never thought it could come into use, but I have an artifact called the Thief's Gauntlet."

"Thief's Gauntlet?" Lin Fan asked.

"You can steal parts from someone's life destiny and make it so that you have a life destiny of an Emperor.

"But it wouldn't be something like the real deal.

"You might be able to only wield half the power of the imperial seal."

Su Qi Nian explained how the Thief's Gauntlet can work with the imperial seal.

He had forged it years ago and thrown it into a corner.

Never in his life could he have come up with such a utility for it.

He was excited to see how it would turn out.

"Who do I steal the parts from? And would it be permanent?" Lin Fan asked.

Taking a small sip of his tea, Su Qi Nian walked over to a pile of artifacts and rummaged through it.

He talked as he threw some of the artifacts away, "You can steal it from anyone, and it can be returned to the owner."

After a few moments, he stopped his rummaging and picked up a gauntlet that had rust covered all over it.

Su Qi Nian placed it onto the stone table and sat down.

"This is the Thief's Gauntlet.

"What you need now are parts from life destiny to make yours complete like an Emperor's.

"Give me your birth date and time, I'll let you know what's lacking for each of you."

He passed them a piece of paper each and they wrote their birth date and time on it.

Lin Fan had to recall hard as it was far back in his memory.

Luckily, he was able to recall it, and he wrote it down.

After he was done, he passed the paper back to Su Qi Nian.

Su Qi Nian went through the papers one by one.

Using his fingers, he calculated the ziwei from their birth date and time.

However, he stopped when he came across Lin Fan's.

This man could have been dead for a very long time.

But here he was, alive and well before him.

Su Qi Nian looked at Lin Fan and recalculated again.

He was right the first time and didn't make any mistake.

This man could have been dead.

The Dao must have taken pity on this man, giving him a second chance in life.

All that he needed was the Ziwei Star to complete his life destiny as an Emperor.

Lin Fan and the others frowned when they saw Su Qi Nian's expression.

They were relieved moments later when Su Qi Nian broke out in laughter.

"Didn't expect it to be so easy.

"Lin Fan here, just requires a Ziwei Star from Ho Ming over there, to complete his life destiny to be an Emperor.

"Not a real one, of course."

Lin Fan raised his hand and asked, "Any harmful effects to Ho Ming if I did that?"

Su Qi Nian shrugged and said, "A little bit, things might not go as smoothly for him. Anyway, you can return it any time."

"Just take what you need, Lin Fan." Ho Ming said, trying to convince Lin Fan.

He sighed, continued and said, "After all, what could be worse than dealing with my father? If I can survive his nagging, I can survive some misfortunes."

"Thanks, and don't worry, I will use the Thief's Gauntlet only when required."

Lin Fan nodded and thanked Ho Ming.

He was appreciative of having a loyal friend like him.

There was no way he would want to put Ho Ming into extra harm's way.

"Well, give it a try." Su Qi Nian picked up the Thief's Gauntlet and put it on Lin Fan's hand.

"Inject your Qi into it and you shall see something in your eyes." Su Qi Nian instructed.

Lin Fan did as he was told.

When he looked at the others, he saw bright stars above their heads.

"The stars that you see are the stars of their life destiny. Notice each of them has a different set."

Lin Fan looked carefully and nodded.

Su Qi Nian was right, Ho Ming, Hun Yen Kun and Han Dang had different sets of stars above their heads.

"Now, use the gauntlet and take the purple star from Ho Ming. To return it you can just do the same and place it back."

Lin Fan reached out his hand that had the gauntlet and grabbed onto the bright purple star that was above Ho Ming's head.

It shined in his hand for a moment and the purple star got absorbed into the gauntlet.

Something happened as Lin Fan felt different.

His aura changed as he felt that he should be above all.

Ho Ming, Hun Yen Kun and Han Dang saw a glow that made them want to follow Lin Fan's lead.

"Now, take out the imperial seal and try it out." Su Qi Nian stared intensely and marveled at his own work.

To think that he nearly wanted to melt the Thief's Gauntlet down into scraps.

He stopped his breathing as he saw Lin Fan taking out the imperial seal.

Lin Fan grabbed tightly onto the imperial seal as it shook in excitement.

A ruler of the lands had finally laid claim on it.

He held the imperial seal up high, and everyone knelt onto the ground.

"Your Majesty…" They stammered and were forced to speak out the words.

"Rise." Lin Fan's voice boomed into their ears, and they felt the need to obey.

They stood up and Lin Fan quickly kept the imperial seal back into his storage device.

The others rested their tense shoulders when the tension and pressure from the imperial seal was gone.

Lin Fan then placed the Ziwei Star back above Ho Ming's head.
