Chapter 102: Every Word from the Heart

The next day.

The outer sect was already in an uproar. Ye Shaotian had made a strong comeback, crushing Feng Bujue, one of the ten geniuses of the outer sect. But at this moment, he was himself crushed by the fool who had been granted permission by the sect master to establish the Holy Demon Sect. This news left everyone stunned and incredulous.

Round after round, Ye Shaotian's strong comeback had already seemed unbelievable to them.

That fool from the Holy Demon Sect actually possessed such strength—this was somewhat unexpected in everyone's eyes.

In the past few days, because of Ye Shaotian's matter, Lin Fan had come up with an idea.

After several days of secret investigation, Lin Fan found that quite a few disciples in the Holy Sect had partners. In his view, some of their nocturnal activities were not entirely satisfactory.

To use an old saying, they couldn't sweat it out and display masculine prowess.

The Holy Demon Sect was currently in a slow development phase and needed to bring in a large influx of fresh blood. Ordinary pills might not attract those disciples, but if he could temporarily solve their hidden ailments, it might be possible to win over a group of loyal disciples.

Feng Bujue had not been in high spirits lately. He had been staying here for several days. Originally, in Feng Bujue's view, although the place to live wasn't great, at least it was relaxed and carefree.

But who would have thought that after the wooden house was built, he would have to join the weeding team? This left Feng Bujue on the verge of tears, not knowing what to say.

Zhang Ergou was quite satisfied with his recent days. Although the place to live wasn't great, here, Zhang Ergou experienced for the first time others currying favor with him.

Especially since those currying favor were all outer sect disciples, which left Zhang Ergou even more at a loss for words.

When Zhang Ergou learned that the reward for these outer sect disciples weeding was the Suyuan Pill, he was completely dumbfounded.

Although he had never taken the Suyuan Pill, he had heard of it—it was a divine pill very helpful for cultivation.

He never expected the sect master to use Suyuan Pills as a reward; it was an eye-opener for Zhang Ergou.

At this moment, Lin Fan came out of the house. In the past few days, Lin Fan had been pondering the formula for a pill. This kind of pill had never appeared in the Holy Sect, and there was no such category of pill at all.

"Sect Master, you're out!" Zhang Ergou saw Lin Fan's figure and immediately trotted over. As expected, after a few days, the weeds had all been cleared. At a glance, the view was beautiful—although bare, Zhang Ergou was more confident than before.

Because through these days of contact, Zhang Ergou found that the sect master was a miraculous one.

Maybe if he worked under the sect master, he could thrive in the future.

Lin Fan had been deep in thought. Hearing Zhang Ergou's voice, he was slightly startled, then looked around at the surroundings. Delighted, he nodded with satisfaction.

These annoying weeds were finally all cleared. If he hadn't used pills to hire outer sect disciples, relying on his own strength alone might have been tricky.

"Sect Master." Feng Bujue stepped forward to greet him.

"Mm." Lin Fan's true intention toward Feng Bujue was to nurture him well, but he didn't quite like Feng Bujue's personality—too serious, too manly. In Lin Fan's view, this might cause him trouble in the future.

But there was no rush for now. The sect was currently safe, and as for training, he would do it properly after finishing some recent matters.

"Ergou, you've done well, living up to my expectations. Here's a bag of Suyuan Pills as a reward. You can go back now." Lin Fan tossed a small bag of Suyuan Pills to Zhang Ergou.

As for Zhang Ergou, Lin Fan had never considered taking him into the sect. Not because Lin Fan looked at people with prejudice, but because Zhang Ergou really didn't look good.

Even just standing there quietly, his whole demeanor screamed, 'I am a petty person, I am a villain.'

Especially his inverted-triangle face, which left Lin Fan speechless.

At this moment, Zhang Ergou took the pills the sect master tossed to him, completely stunned.

Go back?

Back to the menial disciples?

No...

In that instant, Zhang Ergou was dumbfounded. In his original thoughts, he should have become a disciple under the sect master. But now, why was he being sent away?

If he went back, wouldn't that be a dead end?

"No..." At this moment, Zhang Ergou's true feelings burst forth.

Like a abandoned wife, he slumped helplessly to the ground, then reached out his hand, painfully trying to hold back the man who had heartlessly abandoned him.

"Sect Master, from the first day I saw you, I was deeply impressed by your greatness. On that day, I also discovered the purpose of my life."

"When I came here, facing such harsh conditions, I didn't flinch at all, because I believe that you, Sect Master, will surely build this place into the number one sect under heaven."

"Sect Master, I have long considered myself a disciple of the Holy Demon Sect. Now that you want me to leave, I naturally cannot disobey, because you are the person I admire most in my life. But to express my determination, I will die to show my love for the sect..."

Zhang Ergou, with tearful eyes, sobbed, tears and snot streaming down.

Every word was deeply moving. Even Feng Bujue looked at Zhang Ergou with some surprise; he hadn't expected Zhang Ergou to have such deep feelings for this place.

Lin Fan, seeing Zhang Ergou's expression, was also momentarily stunned.

This... this was too shameless.

But Lin Fan rather liked this shamelessness.

To Lin Fan, every word was from the heart, without any falsehood, sincere and true.

Lin Fan believed that Zhang Ergou was truly impressed by his dazzling brilliance.

At this moment, Zhang Ergou, without another word, got up and rushed toward a nearby stone, ready to die to express his determination.

Lin Fan sighed slightly. Although Zhang Ergou wasn't good-looking and his demeanor was somewhat punchable, oh well.

"Forget it, come back." Lin Fan said.

Zhang Ergou, who was about to die to prove his resolve, immediately slammed on the brakes upon hearing the sect master's words, quickly returned, and without hesitation, fell to his knees with a thud.

"Disciple Zhang Ergou pays respects to the Sect Master."

Zhang Ergou's series of actions left Lin Fan dumbfounded. Then he patted Zhang Ergou on the shoulder.

"You're quite something." Lin Fan was at a loss for words.

Zhang Ergou was very shameless, absolutely shameless. Although his talent wasn't great, if he could receive Lin Fan's true teachings, his future achievements would be limitless.

"Alright, I want to go down the mountain. You two do as you please. Since you are my only two disciples, decide among yourselves who will be the senior brother." Lin Fan waved his hand, not wanting to bother with too much.

Let them handle the trivial matters themselves.

As for who became the senior brother, Lin Fan didn't care at all. After all, here, I am the sect master, the biggest boss.
