Chapter 696: Little Friend, Come Out Quickly

"Benefactor, why won't you take him as your master? This is Senior Feng Qingzi. Countless prodigies have sought to become his disciple but failed." The Venerable Shakya said with a pained heart.

"If you want to take him as master, go ahead. You bald donkey, you're crazy about taking a master."

"I wish I could, but Senior Feng Qingzi doesn't think much of me. Still, no matter what, I am a prodigy of the Buddhist clan. How did I become so worthless in his eyes?" The Venerable Shakya said regretfully.

"Stop the nonsense. This old man isn't too bright either. See that? A storage ring. The treasures inside are vast as the sea." Lin Fan said excitedly.

"What good is a vast sea? When the time comes, I guarantee Senior Feng Qingzi will appear before you in an instant. That storage ring will be nothing but a sight to behold." The Venerable Shakya said.

"Bald donkey, why are you so stupid? Forget it, I won't argue with you. Don't resist later; I'll take you into my treasure." Lin Fan said.

"Benefactor, are you serious? This is Senior Feng Qingzi's storage ring!" The Venerable Shakya said in shock. Feng Qingzi was a great power. If his belongings were so easy to take, they'd have been taken long ago.

"Of course I'm serious. Who's joking with you? Enough, time's almost up. Once we make this haul, we'll be rich." Lin Fan didn't let the bald donkey say more and directly took him into the "Heaven and Earth Furnace."

Five breaths had passed. This time Lin Fan ran faster than anyone, but he knew Feng Qingzi had real skill. No matter how far he ran, the guy would catch him in an instant. He had to think of a good plan.

"Old man, you came to me yourself. Don't blame me." Swallowing the old man's storage ring made Lin Fan a bit embarrassed, but thinking of his future actions, he felt relieved.

He was going to fight the Ancient Clan to the death from now on. The old man's storage ring could be considered support from the older generation to the younger.

"Invisibility."

"Conceal aura."

Lin Fan lay directly on the ground, gazing at the void.

He really didn't believe the old man could find him. With the system hiding his aura, even a supreme powerhouse would never detect him.

...

Ten breaths were up.

When Lin Fan fled, Feng Qingzi probed with his divine sense and found the kid running forward, then suddenly stopping at a spot. A smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

Later, Feng Qingzi wasn't in a hurry. He waited slowly, withdrawing his divine sense.

This human little friend was quite strong and gifted, but even so, he was still too weak for Feng Qingzi.

The wonders of the Eternal Divine Position at the tenth level of the Divine Heaven Stage could not be felt without reaching that realm.

No matter how far the kid ran, Feng Qingzi could reach him in an instant.

"This little friend is quite interesting. Well, ten breaths are up. Time to go find him." Feng Qingzi stroked his white beard, smiling calmly, exuding the demeanor of a lofty expert.

But just as Feng Qingzi probed for Lin Fan's whereabouts, his calm expression suddenly changed.

"How is this possible?"

Feng Qingzi's face instantly changed. He probed again in disbelief, his divine sense sweeping heaven and earth, but there was no trace anywhere.

"Impossible. How can this be?" Feng Qingzi could no longer stay calm. This was simply impossible for him.

Though this human little friend was strong, how could he evade his detection?

In an instant, Feng Qingzi shot up and flew in the direction Lin Fan had fled.

"My storage ring is in his hands!"

"But it should be fine. This human little friend is bent on slaying the Ancient Clan; he must be righteous. He won't covet my storage ring. Now that he's hidden, if I can't find him, he'll surely appear."

Feng Qingzi began to console himself.

"Little friend, where are you?" Feng Qingzi called out, his long white beard trembling, as if his heart was uneasy.

"How can this be? Even with a technique to conceal aura, he shouldn't escape my detection." Feng Qingzi looked in all directions, his divine sense fully open, but still found no trace of Lin Fan.

"Here he comes!" Lin Fan lay on the ground, looking up at the sky. Feng Qingzi floated in the void, searching everywhere.

"Hehe, old man, you've been tricked this time." Lin Fan smiled faintly. After entering invisibility, he stayed still. Such a powerful old man must have plenty of treasures in his storage ring.

If he just waited it out, in the end, he would surely profit.

Time passed minute by minute.

Feng Qingzi grew restless. Watching the sky darken, he sensed trouble.

"Little friend, come out quickly. I admit defeat. I won't take you as my disciple."

Feng Qingzi called out, but aside from the cold, silent wind, there was no other sound.

"Little friend, stop playing. I was just boasting. I can't find you. Come out quickly."

"You little rascal, if you don't come out and I catch you, I'll be rough with you."

"Ah, little friend, please, I beg you, come out."

The supreme expert Feng Qingzi was now heartbroken. He felt he had been tricked by that human little friend.

Now Feng Qingzi regretted making that bet and deeply regretted his overconfidence.

With his strength, Feng Qingzi believed no one could escape from under his nose.

But this situation had slapped Feng Qingzi hard.

"Am I going too far?" Seeing Feng Qingzi's heartbroken expression, Lin Fan felt a bit conflicted. But in a flash, he found a perfect excuse.

"It's all for the myriad races."

This old man was strong, but he didn't even dare to kill the Ancient Clan's supreme. His courage was too small.

So, he might as well take on that burden himself.

The Ancient Clan might be strong, but he wasn't afraid.

With a powerhouse's wealth, it must be immense. If he could use it, his strength would skyrocket.

Once he understood this, Lin Fan no longer felt guilty.

Day turned to night.

The sun blazed high. A pair of sly eyes watched the situation in the void.

Lin Fan was impressed by the old man. He had stood there for a whole day and night, as if determined to outlast him.

By now, Feng Qingzi deeply regretted it. If he had known, he wouldn't have handed over his storage ring. He also regretted making that bet.

What a scam! An absolute scam!

"This kid must still be here. If I stand here waiting, he won't come out. I'll have to hide." Thinking this, Feng Qingzi vanished in an instant,遁入虚空, waiting quietly.

"Huh? Did he leave?" Seeing Feng Qingzi leave, Lin Fan was a bit puzzled.

"No, this old man is trying to trick me. I've tried this trick a thousand times. No way I'm falling for it."

"Well, I haven't rested in a while. I'll just sleep here for a month." Then, without further thought, Lin Fan closed his eyes and went to sleep, planning to sleep for a month first.
