Chapter 394: Chapter 370: Reward for the Meritorious

“Where is Master Ji? Has he lost his sanity?” Li Fan, who had quickly perceived the crux of the matter, asked.

Huang Fusong glanced at Li Fan, cleared his throat and said, “Dean Ji has profound cultivation and naturally cannot lose his own will.”

“It’s a pity that those cultivators who were with him had strong abilities and, when they united, even Dean Ji had some difficulty coping.”

“Forced to protect himself, Dean Ji had no choice but to kill all of them,” he concluded with an expression of regret.

Upon hearing this, Li Fan and the others were a bit taken aback.

They seemed to have gained some understanding but didn’t dare to think too deeply about it.

“It’s indeed too dangerous; no wonder it needs to be temporarily sealed.” Li Fan agreed.

Huang Fusong scanned Li Fan with a warning look and transmitted a message: “Boy, I’ve told you what I should tell you. Don’t push your luck.”

Li Fan simply pretended not to hear him.

“Tomorrow I am going to other regions to manage the construction of the array.”

“If any of you have any needs, you can find me before then.”

Once they arrived at the Eternal Immortal Fortress, Huang Fusong showed a smiling face and said to Xue Mu and Jiang Qigui.

As to Li Fan, he didn’t spare him a glance and just left.

Li Fan did not mind either.

After years of hardship, their goals were finally achieved.

The first thing they did after returning to Duan Zhang Immortal City was to check their own rankings.

In these five days, the leaderboard had undergone earth-shattering changes.

Jiang Qigui’s contribution surged as he presided over the entrance of the TianXuan array hub.

Li Fan, however, managed, by a slim margin, to maintain a total score higher than him, thanks to his previous advantages.

Yet, both of them had fallen out of the top ten, rapidly approaching around the twentieth place.

“When you look at it, seemingly in the past few days, quite a few places have completed the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Array. Even some unfamiliar faces have appeared in the top ranks of the leaderboard.”

“I think it’s a bit unfair. We built an array on the Roaring Abyss, which is a lot more challenging than doing the same in ordinary states. Master Li and his team should have earned more points.”.

“Is there a possibility that the points have already been difficulty-adjusted? After all, the Roaring Abyss may be dangerous, but it may not necessarily be the most dangerous place in the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.”.

“Brother Li Fan, look, Guo Yezhong has actually climbed to three hundred place!” Xue Mu indicated via telepathy amidst the discussions of the crowd.

“Hmm, I noticed as well. Friend, what do you think?” Li Fan asked.

“Everyone’s points aren’t static, but are constantly increasing. Under these circumstances, Guo Yezhong has been able to overtake us.”

“And it’s only after many array constructions have been completed that his points have surged dramatically…”

“I suppose this person may have been involved in the initial design of the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array.”

Xue Mu, despite his wooden expression, was by no means stupid.

At this moment, he analyzed calmly: “Dean Ji once told us that the amount of points one achieves is decided according to their contribution to the completion of the array technique.”

“As one of the creators of the array, naturally every time an array is completed, it is to his merit.”

“Thus, this situation can be explained.”

Li Fan recalled the look of Guo Yezhong when he had seen him in the Universal Academy.

“At that time, he was just a Golden Core Array Master. Could that be possible?” He asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Xue Mu also seemed hesitant.

“Maybe, he just provided one of the ideas?” He suggested uncertainly.

“Thinking too much is of no use, we just need to do our own thing well.” Li Fan advised.

Xue Mu looked at the seemingly old and frail Li Fan, nodded solemnly in agreement.

“Being involved in the initial design of the Tianxuan Soul Locking array, and then reaping the benefits later.”

“Not only would he gain a massive amount of points in this competition, but once the Spirit-locking Formation becomes widespread, his status and position would inevitably rise.”

“What a good plan!” Li Fan thought when he returned to his room after parting from Xue Mu.

“If time can be reversed by thirty years, I’m afraid there would be no one who knows the Tianxuan Soul Locking array better than me.”

“Ingenious! Even though I need to be careful when revealing my true intentions…”

Li Fan mused leisurely.

Late into the evening, Li Fan quietly visited Huang Fusong.

As if he had anticipated Li Fan’s visit, a bowl of spirit tea had long been placed on the table, awaiting his arrival.

“Green Dragon Whiskers, capable of prolonging life by ten years. It should be enough to just keep you hanging on,” Huang Fusong mocked.

Without any reservation, Li Fan finished it in one gulp.

After tasting it, he looked at his Even True panel. freёnovelkiss.com

His physiological age limit had just increased by one year.

“Indeed, it’s barely enough.” Li Fan shook his head, an unimpressed expression on his face.

Huang Fusong was almost amused by his reaction. However, he didn’t want to argue about this. Instead, he cut to the chase and asked directly: “Why are you working so hard when you’re on the verge of death? Isn’t it good to enjoy the rest of your life leisurely?”

“And you are still aiming for the top of the leaderboard? What are you thinking?”

In front of Huang Fusong, Li Fan did not display the altruism and integrity he showed in front of others. Instead, he offered a different reason.

“It is because I am nearing my end that I am more desperate.”

“In this way, I may find a chance of survival and regain a thread of vitality.”

Li Fan declared firmly.

“Oh? Could you explain this?” Huang Fusong became interested.

“Being trapped in the Demon Sound Tide and the Element Devouring White Fog was unexpected. Almost consuming all my lifespan in order to seek rescue was also beyond my expectation.”

“I have been in this world for less than a hundred years and am facing imminent death. How can I accept this?”

“Naturally, I want to live.”

“Yet, the life-prolonging treasures are too precious for me. I’m afraid that even if I exhaust the rest of my life, I won’t be able to obtain one.”

“If I want to survive, I have to find another way, to save my country by a detour.”

“Even though there is no absolute certainty, it is definitely worth it for me to gamble on it.”

Li Fan’s eyes were shining, contrasting starkly with his elderly appearance.

Huang Fusong became even more curious: “A gamble? What are you gambling on?”

Li Fan responded solemnly, word by word: ” I am betting…”

“That the Immortal Alliance won’t let down those who have made contributions!”

“Especially in the construction of the Tianxuan Soul Locking array!”

Huang Fusong stared at Li Fan in astonishment, drinking his tea made from Green Dragon Whiskers.

Li Fan continued earnestly: “You and I both know the importance of the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array.”

“And my hard work for constructing the array is widely known.”

“It goes without saying who engineered this.”

“Before all the arrays are completed, is it better to let someone like me who serves as a role model die in destitution, or is it better for the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals to save me?”

, “Compared to inspiring all the Array Masters in the world to work hard, a few life-extending treasures are surely of little significance.”

“Therefore, at this moment, not only am I not afraid of dying of old age soon, but I also think I have too much remaining lifespan!”

“Elder Huang, the tea you just served, almost ruined me.”

“How should you compensate?”

After speaking, Li Fan looked quietly at Huang Fusong.
