C90 Actual Acting
When they heard that, the others didn't do anything. In particular, the Third Elder's facial expression was gloomy. He was pacing left and right. Grandson's life was in danger, and Chen Fan was extremely determined to kill him.
"Master Gu, this old man will say whatever he wants. Don't treat me like an outsider. I'm telling you the truth."
The fifth elder couldn't hold it in any longer. He was known for his fiery temper in the Yuan Sect. He immediately fired at Chen Fan.
The Great Elder was worried that he would cause trouble, but just as he was about to stop him, Sect Leader, who was at the top, shot him a glance, indicating that he shouldn't move.
"I respect your medical skills and skill in formations. I have opened up the mystery of the Void Tomb for thousands of years for our Yuan Sect, and saved Hu Mu's life. The thirty million Hu Mus you gave me earlier was your personal reward. How can you go back on your word so quickly?"
"We can't just give away all the belongings in the room because of the locksmith, can we?"
Alright. As expected of the elders of the Yuan Sect. They were all as smart as ghosts. With just a few words of comparison, Chen Fan was refuted. At first glance, it sounded like they were talking about couplets.
"Master Gu, you are a reasonable person. Why are you making things difficult for the Yuan Sect?"
The Great Elder added.
This time, Chen Fan was placed on the opposite side of morality. If he insisted on asking for a reward from the Spiritual Stone, even his personality would be questioned.
"Let me say something fair. Master Gu has indeed been treated unpleasantly in Qingshan Town. We can't bear it."
Sect Leader cleared his throat and stopped the other elders from making a move. The show was almost done. He was still trying to recruit Chen Fan. It would be bad for both sides if it was too stiff.
"With the Spiritual Stone of the Third Elder, I can also let you choose a cultivation technique from the storehouse. Consider it a token of my appreciation."
Two red faces, one white face. They were both singing and coordinating well. The elder stood on the opposing side and spoke loudly and indirectly to Chen Fan, intentionally or unintentionally occupying the moral high ground.
In the end, it was Sect Leader who made the conclusion. He took the initiative to take a step back. If it was anyone else who suffered a loss, they would be grateful for the promise given by the Yuan Sect due to their great influence.
"Sigh, what a bunch of pedantic people. Why did this old man come all the way here? He's practically playing the piano to a dog!"
Chen Fan sighed. Unsurprisingly, he activated the Heavenly Heart Formula to its maximum. The few old men instantly turned furious. A dignified elder was actually called a dog by someone!
It was fine to play the zither to a cow, but after being surrounded by them, it was fine for Chen Fan to complain.
He had even specially changed the word 'animal' to compare with them. This was intolerable. No one in the entire North Domain dared to do this. They were mocking the upper echelons of the Yuan Sect in front of everyone.
He sneered in his heart and secretly felt satisfied. However, before Sect Leader and the others could get angry, Chen Fan continued calmly.
"The reason why I asked for ten million Yuan Sects is because I heard that you want me to stay in the Yuan Sect. So, I agreed tactfully. It just so happens that I have the same intention..."
As soon as these words sounded, a short period of silence later, the few old fellows' thoughts became active. They did not know that everything was under Chen Fan's control.
"Master Gu, are you serious?" Sect Leader suddenly became interested. This was his true intention.
"Forget it. I would rather return to Wilderness and seek peace instead of facing you all day long and living in the Yuan Sect, where killing intent can be easily revealed."
Chen Fan waved his hand and said impatiently. This was also his plan. He had used ten million Spiritual Stones as a catalyst to fish out Sect Leader's thoughts.
"No, no, no, Master Gu misunderstood. If you can really stay in the Yuan Sect, the Void Tomb can be opened for you. We are a family now."
The Great Elder made a promise without hesitation. This was a promise that they had discussed long ago. As long as one was an elder, they could choose Void Tombs from the Void Tomb.
"Hehe, I have lowered my attitude, but you all are trying to push me. What else do you have to say now? It is truly a pity."
Chen Fan pretended to be angry and used his acting skills.
"Isn't this a special situation? Master Gu, you have to forgive us. Recently, the Sect has been busy with a lot of things. My brain is about to become mush. I can't think of the meaning behind your words."
The Fifth Elder was good at adapting and adapting. After noticing Chen Fan's original attitude, he immediately changed his attitude 360 degrees. He was very decisive.
The reason why he declined repeatedly just now was mainly because Chen Fan had no intention of letting go. He said that he would leave the Yuan Sect after helping Hu Mu treat his illness.
Sect Leader and the elders would definitely not be willing to ask for ten million yuan as compensation. This was equivalent to giving it away for nothing. It would be better to just let it go and listen to what was going on.
"I am an ordinary person. The rules are defined by the definition of vulgarity." Chen Fan was lost for words. His expression was calm.
"Our sect has decided. Master Gu joining us is the fortune of our Yuan Sect. 15 million Spiritual Stones and you can choose two Void Tombs from the Spiritual Beings. It's worth celebrating!"
Sect Leader was extremely excited. Being able to obtain Chen Fan's help, he had even thought of the few dangerous places in the North Domain that still had the remnants of the ancient Spell Formation, which was extremely powerful.
With the help of the latter, he was sure that the luck within the Spell Formation would be beneficial to the Yuan Sect once again.
Moreover, they had been rude first. Adding on this wave of ridicule, Sect Leader had taken the initiative to raise the reward of the Spiritual Stone. This price was worth it.
"20 million Void Tombs. I want three of the Spiritual Beings in the Spiritual Beings."
The corner of Chen Fan's mouth rose. After several days of planning, it was finally time to reap the fruits.
"Third Elder, what do you think?"
Before Sect Leader and the others could speak, the conversation was immediately passed to the Third Elder. It was his fault that he had a disappointing grandson like Patriarch Ma.
"For the sake of Sect, as long as Master Gu can stay, I think this condition is very suitable. It completely suits your identity and ability."
Third Elder gritted his teeth and endured the pain. He decided to give up his right to choose. Only then would he be able to calm down the other elders.
"You can't say that. This old man can promise to become a High Official of the Yuan Sect. If there's anything you need my help with, don't expect to stay in the Yuan Sect forever. I don't have the fortune to do so."
Hearing this, Sect Leader had a troubled look on his face. He started to think about how to deal with the situation. He didn't expect Chen Fan to have additional conditions.
Taking the medicinal Spiritual Stone and leaving, he would put on the title of a consecrate. Although there was something to call for, in the end, it was almost done. Whether it was worth it or not, Sect Leader could not be sure either.
"Master Gu is too cruel to this old man..." The Great Elder wanted to dissuade him again, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Chen Fan.
