Chapter 33: Exposure, Lin Fan's Crisis
"I have two handles in the sect. One is that I took the Holy Blood Pill, and the other is that I killed Zhang Hong."
"During the entrance test of the Qixuan Sect, it was Xu Zhifeng's grandfather who tested my immortal blood. Could it be that the old guy had already seen that I had taken the Holy Blood Pill?"
The more Lin Fan thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.
Xu Weng and Xuan Lingzi were both immortal cultivators in the Jindan stage.
Xuan Lingzi could see at a glance that Lin Fan had taken the Holy Blood Pill. Even if Xu Weng was not as capable as Xuan Lingzi, Xu Weng had personally tested Lin Fan's immortal blood and was very likely to have noticed that Lin Fan had taken the Holy Blood Pill.
"If their grandfather and grandson use this to make a fuss, it would really be a headache!"
Lin Fan smiled bitterly.
If things really get to this point, he will naturally not surrender.
At that time, he will definitely ask Huo Qilin to come forward and save his life and cultivation at all costs.
But!
At this moment, Xu Zhifeng did not make any move.
Instead, a smile of sincere admiration appeared on his face.
He looked gently at the elder who presided over the ring competition.
"Elder, I lost. According to the rules of the sect competition, Lin Fan is already the first in this year's Qi training period competition." Xu Zhifeng said calmly.
The elder did not notice anything wrong and nodded in agreement.
Although Lin Fan had many doubts, after hearing what Xu Zhifeng said, his uneasiness was reduced a lot.
"Could it be that Xu Zhifeng really doesn't want to tear his face with me?"
Lin Fan frowned slightly.
Just when he was extremely confused, the elder's loud voice sounded from the square.
"The first in the Qi training period of this sect competition has been produced, and he is Piaomiao Peak-Lin Fan!"
Wow!
Countless disciples of the Qixuan Sect looked at the ring where Lin Fan was with excitement.
Applause and shouts were thunderous!
At this moment, Lin Fan was completely awakened from a dream!
First in the sect competition!
He really did it.
Not only did he fulfill his promise to Xuan Lingzi, but he also got a bottle of foundation-building pill as a reward, giving him the opportunity to become a foundation-building cultivator.
"Now, I am already at the tenth level of Qi training. After I get the foundation-building pill, I will take a drop of fire spirit essence from the Fire Kirin and hurry up to break through to the foundation-building stage."
"Only when my realm is improved can my safety be greatly guaranteed. At that time, I can also start looking for a way to remove the short-lived curse."
Lin Fan clenched his fists excitedly.
Three months ago, he was still a child in Linjia Village who was at the mercy of fate.
Now, he has the opportunity to change the fate of the whole village.
At this moment, Lin Fan's heart was full of a sense of accomplishment.
But soon, he calmed down again.
"Something is wrong. Xu Zhifeng is like a poisonous snake. Once he gets entangled with me, he will definitely not give up. Today, the reason why he didn't fight with me on the ring is probably because he has other plans."
Thinking of this, Lin Fan's heart became nervous again.
He quickly looked at Xuan Lingzi on the Liuyun throne and secretly transmitted a message.
"Master, I feel something is wrong with Xu Zhifeng!"
"Don't be nervous, you are already the first in the Qi training period of the sect competition. Even if Xu Zhifeng deliberately targets you, he dare not do it too obviously."
After a pause, Xuan Lingzi said again: "I am here for everything, just rest assured!"
Lin Fan nodded heavily after hearing this.
But his heart could not calm down.
Nothing was said for a while, and after waiting for half a day, the Qi training period finals of the Qixuan Sect Competition was completely over.
The most eye-catching award ceremony finally arrived.
Lan Lan, the head of Yunlan Peak who was acting as the sect affairs, was suspended in the void quietly.
Her majestic eyes swept across the Qixuan Sect disciples below who were looking forward to it.
"This sect competition is over. Congratulations to Lin Fan of Piaomiao Peak for winning the first place in the Qi training period of this sect competition. Xu Zhifeng of Tianjian Peak ranked second...Lin Fan, receive the reward."
Before Lan Lan finished speaking, a man's anxious voice sounded from the crowd.
"I want to expose Lin Fan. He is not worthy of being the first in the Qi training period of this sect competition."
Buzz!
The atmosphere at the scene froze instantly.
Lin Fan, who was ready to receive the award, froze.
An inexplicable sense of crisis broke out from the depths of his heart.
At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to the disciple of Qixuan Sect who was speaking.
This person was wearing a shabby errand disciple's clothes.
His realm was only the third or fourth level of Qi training.
In Qixuan Sect, he was definitely at the bottom.
Seeing everyone's eyes looking at him, the errand disciple was under great pressure.
His face was flushed, his lips trembled slightly, and he couldn't even say a complete sentence for a long time.
"A mere errand disciple is also worthy of pointing fingers at the first in this sect competition? How disrespectful!"
Lan Lan frowned, and it was obvious that she wanted to protect Lin Fan.
Seeing this, Lin Fan smiled gratefully.
He knew that his letting Zi Yao go had paid off at this moment.
However, the errand disciple actually nervously took out a Heavenly Spirit Pearl.
Without saying anything, he activated it instantly in front of everyone.
Wow!
In the void, a light curtain of more than 20 feet in size appeared clearly in front of everyone.
On the light curtain, the scene of Lin Fan and Zhang Hong fighting fiercely was extremely clear.
Although no sound could be heard, it was very clear that Lin Fan killed Zhang Hong and took away Zhang Hong's top-grade small sword spirit weapon and storage ring.
At this time, there was an uproar at the scene.
Even if Lan Lan wanted to be on Lin Fan's side, she couldn't excuse Lin Fan in public.
"The sect prohibits private fights between disciples. Lin Fan violated the rules and should be punished by the sect rules."
"He killed his fellow disciples and robbed them of treasures. His methods were extremely cruel. I thought Lin Fan was an object of worship."
"This scum who killed his fellow disciples, even if he became the first in the Qi training period in the sect competition, I still look down on him!"
Countless curses emerged like a tide.
Lin Fan was so angry that he felt dizzy.
Although he had no direct evidence to prove that the Tianlingzhu, which recorded his killing of Zhang Hong, came from Xu Zhifeng.
But he was 100% sure that this kind of black-and-white thing was definitely related to Xu Zhifeng.
"No wonder Xu Zhifeng was so happy today!"
Lin Fan was furious.
He looked at Xu Zhifeng.
But he found that Xu Zhifeng was standing aside with a normal expression.
There was no abnormality on his face.
As if what happened at the moment had nothing to do with him.
"Looking at the entire Qixuan Sect, I only have a dispute with Xu Zhifeng. If he didn't deliberately frame me, it would be hell!" Lin Fan cursed inwardly.
Soon, Lin Fan calmed down again.
He knew very well that if he lost control of his emotions at this moment, he would probably be led by Xu Zhifeng.
If he really confirmed that he had killed Zhang Hong, even if Xuan Lingzi and Huo Qilin came out at the same time, they might not be able to save his life.
Thinking of this, Lin Fan calmed down and sneered secretly.
"Xu Zhifeng? Since you framed me like this, don't blame me for being rude!"
However, before Lin Fan took the initiative to attack.
Xu Zhifeng actually took the initiative to speak.
"Master Lanfeng, Ding Yuan is a chores disciple. But the facts are in front of us, and Lin Fan must be responsible for the murder of the sect."
After a pause, Xu Zhifeng's eyes swept over Lin Fan, and a cold light suddenly appeared in the depths of his eyes.
"Lin Fan, Zhang Hong and I are disciples of the same class who entered the sect at the same time. Zhang Hong accidentally discovered that Lin Fan had taken the Holy Blood Pill, and was killed by Lin Fan to silence him."
"Please ask Master Lan Feng to uphold justice for Zhang Hong and defend the sect's rules."
