Chapter 577 - Three Way Meeting (5)

There was a silence that lasted in the room for a long time before Bing Yu broke it.

She sat up from the ground and raised a hand to touch her cheek. When she felt the pain that came from touching it, she finally remembered what had just happened and there was a look of rage that appeared.

She glared at Lin Fan with eyes that seemed like she wanted to kill him as she roared, "You dare slap me in the face!"

But when she roared out at Lin Fan, looking like she was about to go all out against him, Bing Lan said, "Xiao Yu, enough!"

Bing Yu immediately gave a tremble before turning to look at Bing Lan with an aggrieved look, "But master!"

Bing Lan narrowed her eyes which caused Bing Yu to look down before she said, "Yes master!"

With her head down, she went over to where Bing Lan was standing and came up behind her to stand there. However, as she walked away, she didn't forget to glare at Lin Fan one last time.

Of course, there was also a trace of fear that was in her eyes because what she had experienced just now was real. She had no way of understanding how Lin Fan had just erupted with that kind of power just now.

The only reason she was able to stay calm now was because of the specialty of the Ice Goddess Palace's cultivation technique.

This cultivation technique was one that suppressed emotions and at its peak, it would turn the one that cultivated it into an emotionless piece of ten thousand year old ice. But that was only at the peak of this cultivation technique and no one at the Ice Goddess Palace had reached the peak yet, not even their leader.

Bing Lan also took a deep look at Lin Fan during this time.

The only reason she had let Bing Yu go out was because she had believed that Lin Fan was only a normal Low Embryo Soul Realm Expert.

She hadn't heard about what had happened in the store, but even if she had, she still wouldn't have had any reason to believe that Lin Fan was anything more than a genius that could skip a single minor realm.

She never would have thought that he was such a monster that he was able to skip two minor realms…No, it would be three minor realms since Bing Yu's battle power was at a level that even normal Peak Embryo Soul Realm Experts would find hard to resist.

Then there was the fact that he had dealt with her full power attack so easily…

With the power that he had demonstrated, she even suspected that he was capable of skipping a full major realm and fighting those in the Child Soul Realm.

A Low Embryo Soul Realm Expert who was able to cross three minor realms and one major realm to fight those in the Child Soul Realm, she really had never heard of a monster like this.

As this thought passed through her mind, she couldn't help revealing a look of regret as she looked at the Hunters Organization group. 

If this kind of genius could have appeared in her Ice Goddess Palace, how great that would have been…

It was too bad that she had also forgotten that her Ice Goddess Palace only took in female disciples. If Lin Fan were to appear in her Ice Goddess Palace, they wouldn't have taken him in the first place unless he…

Since her plan to demonstrate the power of the Ice Goddess Palace to take a more domineering position in this alliance had failed, she could only pull back now and present a more passive position.

After staring at Lin Fan for a bit, she said with a sigh, "It seems like this little friend here really is talented."

Then she said nothing else on this matter as she turned to the Hunters Organization group and said, "Since that is settled and everyone is here, how about we begin our negotiations?"

Old man Qiao and president Mao had been in charge of the Hunters Organization for quite some time now and as the saying went, the old ginseng was the most spicy. It didn't take long for them to figure out what Bing Lan had been planning with this sudden request for a spar, but they were glad that everything had turned out for the better with Lin Fan.

To be honest, even they never expected Lin Fan to be this powerful, but now he had given them quite the pleasant surprise.

Both of them nodded at Bing Lan before turning to One Sword.

While One Sword had his eyes closed, he was still able to hear everything that was happening around him and he also had his spiritual sense, so he had been able to see everything that had happened.

When everyone turned to him, One Sword opened his eyes as well and he gave a nod.

The negotiations didn't last long since the order had already been established by the spar just now.

One Sword already knew that Wang Jian had already lost to Lin Fan previously, so he didn't try to put the Myriad Sword Hall in a dominant position either.

Lin Fan spaced out during the negotiations because he felt that none of them applied to him, but at the end, old man Qiao said to him, "Then little friend Lin, are you fine with these terms?"

Lin Fan suddenly snapped out of his stupor and turned to look at old man Qiao as he asked, "What terms?"

Old man Qiao just calmly said, "You'll be the leader of the team that we're sending into the Ancient Era Ruin. Didn't you hear what we just said?"

Lin Fan revealed a confused look as he asked, "Ancient Era Ruin? But I'm not going."

Old man Qiao then revealed a surprised look before turning to look at Qiao Yi Fei who had turned her head away.

It wasn't hard for him to figure out what was going on, so he slightly knitted his brows before turning back to Lin Fan to say, "Little friend Lin, the Ancient Era Ruin is a very special place. It's a place that will be filled with opportunities, ones that you normally couldn't even get even if you wished for them. I'm sure that you wouldn't want to miss out on these opportunities, right?"

Lin Fan just gave a shrug and said, "I don't need them though."

Old man Qiao was taken aback by this, but then he had to admit that perhaps Lin Fan didn't need them.

He had been able to sense the laws in his store the last time he went there and he could tell that Lin Fan's backing wasn't normal. If Lin Fan was even related to a higher realm, then he really wouldn't lack this single Ancient Era Ruin…

Hearing what the two of them were talking about, Bing Lan's eyes lit up.

She could hear that there was a bit of dissidence between the Hunters Organization group and she could smell the scent of opportunity.

Before old man Qiao could say anything, Bing Lan suddenly said, "Little friend Lin, if the Hunters Organization is treating you unfairly, how about coming to our Ice Goddess Palace? We have plenty of beauties just like Xiao Yu back in our palace."

It seemed like Bing Lan had placed quite a high valuation on Lin Fan, even going as far as using a honey trap to pull him in and even going against the traditions of their sect to only accept women…

But one had to admit that Bing Yu was beautiful and the Ice Goddess Palace was a sect that was filled with only women, so he would be the only man there…

To put it in earth terms, it would be like being the only boy in an all girls school, full of girls who had never interacted with men other than their fathers before…That was a plot that many young men dreamed of!

On the Myriad Sword Hall side, One Sword had been staring right at Lin Fan with an intense gaze, making his meaning very clear. He didn't say a thing, but with his personality, he didn't need to say a thing.

Seeing both of them like this, old man Qiaq cursed at them in his mind, "Old vultures!"

It seemed like they were intent on stealing Lin Fan away from their Hunters Organization, but how could old man Qiao let that happen?

Old man Qiao suddenly stood up and without even caring about his appearance, he grabbed Lin Fan by the shoulder and pulled him aside to have a private conversation.

He had even released his life energy to form a barrier around them so that the other two forces couldn't hear a thing that they were saying.

Behind him, president Mao was tactfully doing the same, wrapping his barrier up with a barrier of her own just to ensure that these vultures wouldn't be able to play any tricks.

Old mao Qiao looked at Lin Fan and directly said, "Tell me, what do you want?"

Lin Fan gave a shrug and said, "I just want peace and quiet. Is that really that hard to get?"

Old man Qiao gave a laugh and said, "Even if you don't go, do you think that Lei Feng and Shi Yan will let you off?"

Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile when he heard this since he already knew the answer to this.

In fact, this was the only scruple that Lin Fan had which still dragged him back into any of this.
