Chapter 101: Lin Fan Rejects Guiling, Jinling

As soon as these words came out, many people looked at Duobao with playful expressions.

Everyone was not an idiot; how could they not hear the meaning of Lin Fan's words.

It seemed like he didn't refuse, but in reality, it meant he didn't want to have a deep friendship with Duobao.

For a time, many people looked at Lin Fan with appreciation and recognition.

No other reason.

It was really because after the Three Teachings Grand Competition, Duobao's prestige within the Jie Sect had declined significantly.

This also led to his near-manic desire to regain his standing during this period, thereby establishing his prestige within the Jie Sect.

But the results were clearly not good; many Jie Sect disciples no longer bought it, and even didn't recognize him as the Senior Brother.

If it weren't for Wudang not having the heart to fight, the rise of the Wudang lineage would have become inevitable and unstoppable.

And Lin Fan was iron-clad Wudang lineage.

Duobao invited Lin Fan, seemingly just to build a good relationship, but in reality, he also wanted to befriend the Wudang lineage, and even bring Wudang under his command.

However, it was clearly a failure now; Lin Fan's words completely blocked the possibility of Duobao winning him over.

Thinking of this, many people smiled.

Immediately after, they didn't linger and walked straight away from this place.

"Damn it~"

Clenching his fists, Duobao's inner emotions were also extremely aggrieved and uncomfortable.

Befriending Lin Fan.

This was a step in his strategy.

After all, it could be seen from Tongtian Jiaozhu's previous behavior that Lin Fan's rise was inevitable.

Even the future Lin Fan would definitely be an existence not inferior to Wudang, and even surpassing Wudang's status.

Plus he himself belonged to the Wudang lineage; once he rose, the Wudang lineage would truly become the uncrowned king.

Therefore, he planned to win over Lin Fan, and then let Lin Fan and Wudang turn against each other, thereby creating opportunities and chances for himself.

Unfortunately, such a plan was very good, but this plan had already failed before it even started, and there was no possibility of continuing at all.

However, Duobao did not show his anger and forced a smile: "In that case, I won't disturb your cultivation, Junior Brother."

"When you finish your seclusion, I will definitely entertain you well!"

"Alright, Junior Brother Lin Fan, I will take my leave first."

After speaking, Duobao didn't wait for Lin Fan to answer and turned around to ride a cloud and leave in a hurry.

He didn't want to be rejected again; if that happened, he would truly lose all face.

"Junior Brother Lin Fan!"

After Duobao left, Wudang on the side walked up, nodded slightly and said: "Congratulations, Junior Brother!"

"However, I have something I don't understand. I wonder if Junior Brother can enlighten me!"

This was not Wudang speaking casually.

She indeed didn't understand the content and information of Tongtian Jiaozhu's previous words.

But since so many people didn't ask, she didn't want to pursue Tongtian Jiaozhu for information.

But Lin Fan had followed Tongtian Jiaozhu away for so many years, and now that he was back, Tongtian Jiaozhu said such words, so she thought Lin Fan would know some information.

"Of course!"

Unlike the rejection of Duobao, facing Wudang's inquiry, Lin Fan agreed without hesitation.

He was not an ungrateful person; if it weren't for Wudang's support and help in the past, he couldn't have risen so quickly, and even mastered the essence of the Shangqing Sword Dao.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan immediately said: "However, this matter cannot be finished in a few words."

"If Senior Sister Wudang doesn't mind, why not go to your residence and explain it in detail!"

"With pleasure!"

With a slight smile, Wudang also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.

After all, Lin Fan was indeed full of confidence when he rejected Duobao before, and even made people feel that he had completely risen and stood firm within the Jie Sect.

Now that Lin Fan could still maintain his past attitude and recognition towards her, this made Wudang extremely happy, which meant that her choice and help in the past were not wrong.

Thinking of this, Wudang immediately said: "In that case, Junior Brother, let's go back first!"

After speaking, Wudang and Lin Fan rode a cloud and prepared to leave.

"Junior Sister Wudang!"

"Junior Brother Lin Fan!"

"Wait a moment, we'll go together!"

Just at this moment, two calls came.

Following the sound, one could see the figures of Jinling Shengmu and Guiling Shengmu walking from not far away.

They hadn't left, but were waiting in a hidden area.

They happened to hear the conversation between Lin Fan and Wudang, and their hearts were even more urgent.

After all, they didn't quite understand what Tongtian Jiaozhu was talking about, so naturally, they wanted to get to the bottom of it.

"Two Senior Sisters, what is this?"

Seeing Guiling Shengmu and Jinling Shengmu flying over, Lin Fan hadn't spoken yet, but Wudang couldn't help but frown.

To be honest, Wudang didn't have much of a liking for these two Senior Sisters of hers.

Not for anything else, but because the two women had ambition and it was huge, not inferior to Duobao at all.

It was just that their strength and prestige were insufficient, which led to the two women not having too many big actions.

However, Jinling Shengmu and Guiling Shengmu joining forces was already an existence that could not be ignored within the Jie Sect.

The two women had also tried to win over Wudang, but were rejected, and later even suppressed Wudang openly and secretly.

Although Wudang didn't pursue it, it didn't mean that this matter had really passed.

Precisely because of this, Wudang didn't welcome the two women's arrival, and even less wanted the two women to get any information from Lin Fan through her.

"Junior Sister Wudang, we are all Personal Disciples, and we are all women, isn't it appropriate to visit each other?"

Jinling Shengmu saw Wudang's displeasure, but didn't care, pretending not to see it and saying sincerely: "It just so happens that Guiling Shengmu and I are free today, does Junior Sister not welcome us?"

"Of course not~"

Opening her mouth, Wudang still couldn't refuse.

After all, Jinling Shengmu only said visit, and didn't mention other information and matters, so she really couldn't refuse.

"Good fellow!"

"This Jinling Shengmu is high-level."

Taking in this scene, a flash of light in Lin Fan's eyes, he immediately understood the meaning of the other party's words.

But understanding was understanding.

But it didn't mean Lin Fan would accept and recognize it.

Jinling Shengmu and Guiling Shengmu wanted to manipulate Wudang and get information from him; he wouldn't be stupid enough to agree.

Although the two women gave him spirit treasures as a greeting gift back then, he was after all part of the Wudang lineage, and his relationship with them was in a state of opposition.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan immediately stepped forward: "Senior Sister Wudang, since Senior Sister Jinling and Senior Sister Guiling have something to do with you, then Junior Brother won't disturb you."

"When I finish my seclusion, I will come to bother you then."

"Three Senior Sisters, Lin Fan takes his leave!"

After speaking, Lin Fan cupped his hands and rode a cloud to fly towards his cave dwelling without hesitation.

This scene left the three women dumbfounded.

Immediately after, Wudang's mouth curled up, and a knowing smile appeared in the corner of her eyes.

On the contrary, the faces of Jinling Shengmu and Guiling Shengmu sank; although they didn't completely break their defense, their mood was clearly not good at this moment. ===== CHAPTER 102 =====
