The Young Master Storms the City
Chapter 1018: Loyalty

Chapter 1018: Chapter 1018: Loyalty

The kindness in saving lives and showing the way was enough to make them completely loyal to Ning Fan.

Having thus enlisted the three, Ning Fan began to prepare to help them step onto the path of cultivation.

As for loyalty, Ning Fan did not consider it much.

Everyone came from the Secular World, and with the personalities of the three, it was clear that they were not likely to betray.

More importantly, their only obsession was cultivation.

As for familial attachments, as Yan Shuang put it, they had long been left devastated after the fierce struggles of early years.

Ning Fan neither agreed nor disagreed with this.

Entering this path meant that making enemies was inevitable.

Even Ning Fan himself, if not powerful enough, would have already faced the destruction of his home and family.

Strength was the most powerful support system in this world.

Once the three had calmed their emotions, Ning Fan took out some mid-grade elixirs he had previously made for them to consume and begin practicing.

These mid-grade elixirs were not very potent, but most importantly, they would not have any adverse effects on the body.

Taking these elixirs, even if they couldn’t enhance their strength, at least they wouldn’t leave any hidden problems.

However, for them to completely break through and transform their constitution, they ultimately needed a Foundation Establishment Pill.

It was at this time that Xiong Lin suddenly rushed over in a hurry.

"Daoist Xu, what level of elixirs can you now produce?"

Hearing this, Ning Fan realized there might be trouble with the Sect Master’s daughter and spoke gravely, "Top-grade."

"Success rate... never mind, no point worrying about success rates now!" Xiong Lin didn’t wait for Ning Fan to respond and started dragging him toward the direction of the Sect Main Hall.

Ning Fan only had time to tell Yan Shuang and the others to wait for his return, then he was already being whisked far away.

"Elder Xiong, what happened?" Ning Fan asked, controlling his movement, "Has the Sect Master’s precious daughter fallen ill again?"

"That’s right, she should have been awake at this hour today, but she suddenly collapsed and fainted."

"Just now, Sect Master had invited Master Yun He, a renowned physician, who said that her condition suddenly worsened. Only a top-grade elixir could alleviate it."

"If she cannot consume the elixir within three days, she will be dead within a week!"

Xiong Lin spoke rapidly, quickly clarifying the situation.

Ning Fan suddenly understood why Xiong Lin was in such a hurry to bring him.

"Has Elder Zhang found an alchemist?" He curiously asked.

Xiong Lin snorted disdainfully and cursed, "Heaven knows from where he found some guy who just advanced to a senior alchemist, who after being invited, looked down on everyone arrogantly, absolutely unbearable."

Saying this, he glanced back at Ning Fan, and after a moment’s thought, he spoke slowly, "Daoist Xu, set my mind at ease, if you really are uncertain, then let it be."

Although this guy called Xu Fan claimed he could produce top-grade elixirs, he was still young, and Xiong Lin thought it was probably boastful.

Although Xiong Lin wished to capitalize on the opportunity, he also didn’t want to bring an alchemist who might only succeed once in a hundred tries.

If they had to wait for a hundred elixirs to be refined, the Sect Master’s daughter would be cold in her grave, which wouldn’t help at all!

Hearing this, Ning Fan gave a slight smile and reassured, "Elder Xiong, rest assured, since I say I can produce it, then I am confident."

Seeing Ning Fan so confident, Xiong Lin was silent for a moment, then clenched his teeth and nodded vigorously, "Brother Xu, if you can help me save the Sect Master’s daughter this time, whatever Brother Xu wants to do in the future, I, Xiong Lin, will certainly not shirk!"

Xiong Lin had already invested too much for this opportunity.

To become the Deputy Sect Master, he would gain access to more resources.

With more resources, he could try to enhance his strength.

His cultivation was also at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, seeking to reach the Foundation Establishment Peak.

If he could establish a connection with the Five Great Sects, obtaining a cultivation technique to advance to the Pseudo-Dan Stage was not out of the question.

So, when Ning Fan spoke those words, even though Xiong Lin hesitated, he still decided to bring him along.

At this time, it wasn’t his place to hesitate.

He had to trust that Ning Fan could truly produce the top-grade elixir mentioned by Master Yun He.

Soon, the two arrived at the Sect Main Hall.

Entering the main hall, Xiong Lin did not stop but led Ning Fan toward the back through a narrow corridor.

Exiting the corridor, a quiet courtyard appeared before their eyes.

In the courtyard, there stood Zhang Shili, with whom there had recently been a conflict.

Next to him, was an old man in a white robe who looked distinguished and refined.

"This old guy is called Xue Yun, rumored to be apprenticed to a senior alchemist from the Five Great Sects, and he himself was just promoted to an alchemist," Xiong Lin whispered to Ning Fan to clarify the other’s identity.

Xue Yun glanced disdainfully at Ning Fan, then quickly shifted his gaze, clearly ignoring him completely.

"You really are bold to have brought him here,"

Zhang Shili stepped forward with an unfriendly expression, despite having already warned him on the mountain path earlier, this young chap did not seem to heed the advice at all.

"I have a kind heart and cannot stand to see others suffer," Ning Fan replied with a light smile. "Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. It’s a great deed."
