Chapter 1013: Chapter 1013: Has the Feiyu Sect Joined One of the Five Great Sects?

Although they were puzzled, once Xiong Lin spoke, the cultivators had no choice but to leave.

After everyone had dispersed, Xiong Lin then looked at Ning Fan with a smile and said in a deep voice, "Young friend, would you care to join this old man for a meeting?"

"Of course, I can, but I hope Elder Xiong would allow these few friends of mine to come along." Ning Fan naturally wouldn’t act haughty when others showed him respect.

Yan Shuang and the other two hadn’t even snapped back to reality, looking like they were in a dream when Ning Fan helped them up.

They thought they were doomed to be imprisoned, perhaps even to die here.

Unexpectedly, this young man saved them with just a few words.

"What is your name?" Ning Fan asked as he looked at the other person’s tattered clothing and laughed, "Your black clothes earlier were quite dashing."

These three turned out to be the peak Transcendent Realm Martial Artists Ning Fan had encountered at Mount Kunlun when he first entered.

Their now miserable appearance did not surprise Ning Fan at all.

After all, powerful martial artists could be found everywhere in Kunlun; it was the cultivators who truly had a future here.

Only those whose talents were insufficient to embark on the path of cultivation had no choice but to cultivate martial arts.

So even though the three of them were powerful Transcendent Realm masters outside, in Kunlun, they were just nameless pawns.

Yan Shuang gave a wry smile, "We never expected Kunlun to be like this."

Thinking back to their high spirits when they entered Kunlun compared to their current plight, Yan Shuang’s heart felt even more bitter.

"To break through the shackles, one must endure far more suffering than what one faces on the cultivation path." After a while, he sighed deeply.

At the same time, he grew even more admiring of Ning Fan.

He simply couldn’t imagine how Ning Fan managed to cultivate to such strength in the Secular World.

Even after they entered Kunlun at the same time, Ning Fan had already become a Sect Disciple, and even conversed as an equal with an Elder who seemed very powerful.

All along the way, Yan Shuang was trying to adjust his mindset while also encouraging his two brothers.

But having cultivated to this point, they clearly were not the type with a fragile mentality.

"Big brother, don’t worry, we’re not children anymore," Liu Xing said with a bitter smile, "It is just a matter of starting over."

"Yes, just starting over. With our talents, couldn’t we cultivate back up?" said He Yun in a deep voice.

Cultivate back up?

Yan Shuang glanced ahead at Ning Fan and Xiong Lin, walking side by side.

The two conversed and laughed, appearing very natural, as if they had known each other for many years.

Ning Fan looked to be in his early twenties, yet he had already cultivated to such a level.

Yan Shuang wondered how many years of cultivation it would take for him to catch up.

"Daoist Xu is so young, yet you possess such cultivation. It truly is impressive," Xiong Lin exclaimed.

The realm Ning Fan showed him was Mid Foundation Establishment, and even then, cultivators of this age at Mid Foundation Establishment were few and far between in Lower-Ranked Sects.

Typically, only those like Zuo Chengjue, who were nurtured by an entire sect, had a chance to reach this level.

Ning Fan, with no family background, managed to cultivate to this point, which showed how extraordinary his talent was!

Ning Fan smiled and humbly said, "Elder Xiong flatters me too much; it’s just good luck, plus the sect’s willingness to nurture me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have made it to where I am today."

By his side, Wan Kun chuckled, "Brother Xu is too modest. If it weren’t for your talents, you wouldn’t have received the sect’s nurturing."

Wan Kun was the cultivator previously collecting the entrance fee at the city gate.

He was Xiong Lin’s close disciple, only punished to guard the gate recently because of his laziness.

The moment he obtained the Top-grade Elixir, he sought out his master.

That was why Xiong Lin immediately brought him along to find Ning Fan.

As a result, that previous scene took place.

After chatting for a while, Xiong Lin curiously asked, "I wonder which senior Alchemist your Sect Master invited to refine elixirs for your sect?"

This was something he had been puzzled about.

Senior Alchemists were all controlled by the Five Great Sects, and without the consent of their own Sect Masters, it was impossible for them to refine elixirs for other sects.

Could it be that the Feiyu Sect was connected with one of the Five Great Sects?

The numerous possibilities contained within made Xiong Lin attach great importance to this matter.

The Five Great Sects were the supreme entities of Kunlun, and any sect under their support could become outstanding among peers.

Ning Fan feigned difficulty, "This... Elder Xiong, you know how peculiar the tempers of those Alchemists are, so..."

Xiong Lin nodded, "I understand, I understand, they do not wish to reveal their names."

He paused for a moment, then broached another topic, "But those Mid-grade Elixirs just now, were they personally refined by you, Daoist Xu?"

Earlier Ning Fan told them that the Mid-grade Elixirs were flawed and mentioned in passing that he had refined them himself.

Xiong Lin found this hard to believe.
