C11 The Sect's Secret

On the stone platform in the distance, the elders didn't answer. Lan Yu didn't even try to stop him. This was a tacit agreement with Zhao Hong's request.

"Great Elder, who do you think will win?" Lan Yu asked in a low voice.

"I don't see any clues yet, but Chen Fan was able to fight to a draw with Bai Yu in the main hall. This old man thinks that he might be able to do something unexpected."

The Great Elder had always been conservative. Even his prediction of the situation was only a vague suggestion.

"Bai Yu has suppressed his cultivation base. That battle cannot be counted. Chen Fan's true ability will depend on today's battle."

Lan Yu waved his hand. His eyes glanced at the elder on the other side of the crowd.

"It seems like Sect Leader has already made up his mind." The Great Elder nodded and replied meaningfully.

"If this kid can be used, I can help him. It's time to beat him up in the past two years." Lan Yu didn't hide anything as he spoke.

"Zhao Hong was obviously arranged by the Fifth Elder to test Chen Fan's skill level. It seems like he is tempted as well." The Great Elder's expression didn't change. He was very frank.

"Who asked this kid to hold the Ancient Token of Grand Master in his hand? I must win him over. Wouldn't it be a waste to give him to the Fifth Elder for free?" Lan Yu laughed, his eyes flashing.

In fact, Chen Fan, who was in the middle of a fierce battle, wouldn't have thought that after he had left for thousands of years, the Qing Xuan Sect, which was personally founded by the Third Disciple, had already fallen into a very long internal conflict.

The seven great elders of the Qing Xuan Sect were all senior brothers and sisters of the same generation. From the top to the bottom, they were divided into the True, Hidden, Tong, Jing and De. Gen and Ming. Most of them were around four to five hundred years old. There were few impacts that could affect their state of mind.

Although it seemed like they were still friendly on the surface, there were two major factions that were represented by Sect Leader and the Fifth Elder Qian De. They were divided into two major factions. Behind them was a portion of the Sect's resources, along with tens of thousands of disciples who joined them.

Speaking of which, Speaking of which, this could be traced back to the mistakes of the previous Sect Master. When he was alive, he had valued Lan Yu greatly. After accepting him, he had spent more time teaching than the other disciples. He had even treated Lan Yu as his own son. This was something that everyone in the Qing Xuan Sect knew.

Therefore, even though Sect Leader hadn't appointed a successor before his death, the higher ups had tacitly agreed that Lan Yu should be the successor of their master.

However, there was a dried up virtue that jumped out, believing that his talent and combat strength were both at the top, a level higher than Lan Yu's. A group of Follower had gathered around him, intending to fight for Sect Leader's power.

The situation back then was very straightforward. Qian De's strength was outstanding. He was an outstanding figure in the entire Sect, and his potential for growth far surpassed those of his peers.

On the other hand, Lan Yu had the qualifications to be Miao Hong's only candidate. He had the advantage of being a Xiantian expert. The two sides continuously exchanged blows in secret for a full three months.

After a complicated game, relying on the friendship left behind by the previous sect master, Lan Yu obtained the support of several supreme elders. In the end, he managed to secure the throne of the new Sect Leader.

After Lan Yu successfully ascended, he naturally suppressed Qian De's bloodline. Now, Elder Qian Yin, Elder Qian Tong, and Ninth Elder, who had died young, took the opportunity to replace him. They were the direct descendants of Lan Yu.

However, this Fifth Elder's talent was indeed extraordinary. Over the past hundred years, his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, almost reaching the same level as the former.

Although his Follower group had been cut down from the upper echelons, they had firmly occupied the core strength of the Sect. Out of the thirty-six protectors, nearly twenty of them were old disciples of virtue.

If not, with his actions of challenging Lan Yu back then, he should have been exiled a long time ago. How could he still hold onto his position as an elder today?

Together with Fourth Elder Qian Jing and Sixth Elder Qian Yuan, the three of them joined hands and were faintly able to contend against Lan Yu.

Apart from this, the highly respected Qian Zhen, Seventh Elder Qian Ming and Eighth Elder, who had been sitting on the throne, didn't interfere with the conflict between the two factions of Sect. They adopted a neutral attitude. They could be considered as a third party that didn't interfere with the internal strife.

However, in reality, they were more inclined towards Lan Yu. After all, he was the true Sect Leader.

Perhaps Chen Fan didn't care about these conflicts. It wasn't as exciting as ten thousand years ago when the major ancient families fought in different ways. Lan Yu and the others were just small fights, but he was destined to be involved in them.

Since he had chosen the Qing Xuan Sect as the stepping stone for his rise, he had to settle the grudges between these old fellows first.

"It seems like Sect Leader is quite interested in this little guy." On the other side of the battlefield, Qian Jing and Qian De also saw it.

"Don't panic. This kid did show some strength in the hall. If we can defeat him again, we can give him an olive branch."

Qian De did not think highly of Chen Fan. In comparison, Zhao Hong, who was trained by himself, was more assured.

"Hey, if it wasn't for the fact that this kid has a big appetite, we would have supported him. He actually wants to get the position of elder. What a wishful thinking." Now that he thought about it, Qian Jing was still a little angry.

Don't worry. This old man will definitely win this round. Lan Yu's speed is too small. He might not even be able to accommodate a junior. "

Qian De had a confident look on his face. Just like how he had persisted in Sect Leader's position for so many years, he was also determined to win.

The reason why these two major camps had to pay great attention to Chen Fang was because they wanted to find out the reason behind it. Only that medicinal Ancient Token of Grand Master remained.

He was definitely going to hand it over. It involved the fate of the Sect. Regardless of whether it was Lan Yu or Qian De, they naturally couldn't wait to take control of it.

Lan Yu was able to stabilize his position and establish supreme authority. Qian De could use Ancient Token of Grand Masters to summon even greater powers. In short, it was extremely important to both of them.

"Your spiritual energy is surging out from the Baihui acupoint. It should have been a key acupoint of the human body, but it isn't very solid. It seems like relying on external forces during the cultivation process is a bit too much."

Chen Fan instinctively sensed Zhao Hong's cultivation level. It was very weak. He must have consumed a lot of spiritual herbs to increase his cultivation level. He could not help but give some pointers.

"Heh, an outsider who descended from the sky actually gave me some pointers on my cultivation. You really don't know how strong you are." Zhao Hong was shocked in his heart, and then he raised his voice and refuted in an extremely stiff manner.

"Unfortunately, it is a pity. If you could calm down a little, with the aptitude of this physical body, you would be able to achieve even greater results."

Chen Fan sighed. He still could not suppress his old habit of casually speaking the truth. It seemed like he would have to pay more attention in the future.

After all, he no longer had his usual peak strength. He always looked like a fraud. No one would believe it even if they told others.

"You're playing tricks, acting crazy, not knowing what to say. You're just asking for a beating." Zhao Hong scolded him mercilessly. This was the first outsider comment Chen Fan received after he came back to this world.
