Chapter 753: Chapter 753 The Stubborn Old Man

“Injustice?”

Ning Kun sized up Jiang Fan and sneered, “I remember you. Your name is Jiang Fan, right?”

“Your cultivation is only at the Sixth Layer of Core Formation.”

“You haven’t reached the Eighth Layer yet.”

“If Commissioner Luo didn’t cheat for you, then what else could it have been?”

With that,

he snorted again through his nose. “Now that you’re back,”

“come with me to meet the Pavilion Master!”

“You dare to play tricks with unorthodox methods just after entering the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, bringing corrupt influences here.”

“This chief steward’s eyes tolerate no sand!”

“Let’s go!”

His hand moved like lightning, grabbing Jiang Fan’s arm.

But how could Jiang Fan let himself be grabbed so easily?

Arcs of Thunder shot out from the surface of his body, numbing Ning Kun’s hand.

Taking advantage of the situation, Jiang Fan broke free, pulled back slightly, and said:

“Chief Steward Ning, it would be better to investigate clearly before drawing conclusions.”

Ning Kun was shocked. “Thunder Dao Divine Power?”

“A skill like this is an excellent treasure for exploring the underground world.”

“Unfortunately, your intentions are a bit unethical.”

“In our Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, we’d rather have none than allow the wrong ones!”

“Be obedient and follow me to receive judgment from the Pavilion Master!”

Jiang Fan sighed.

These old stubborns, why are they always unwilling to listen calmly?

“Fine, if Chief Steward Ning can defeat me, I’ll go with you willingly.”

Ning Kun burst out laughing angrily.

“Even senior disciples aren’t as arrogant as you!”

“Yu Tiandu, arrest him.”

It wasn’t worth it for a Ninth Layer Core Formation chief steward to fight a new disciple directly.

That would just make him a laughingstock.

Yu Tiandu would be enough.

Yu Tiandu, at the Seventh Layer of Core Formation, should effortlessly catch Jiang Fan, whose cultivation was at the Sixth Layer.

But despite shouting for a long time,

Yu Tiandu remained unmoving, with a troubled look on his face.

Ning Kun turned his head to look, frowning. “I may not be your master,”

“but I am still the chief steward! Are you refusing my orders now?”

Yu Tiandu’s face flushed as he said, “Chief Steward Ning, this is a misunderstanding.”

“It’s not that I don’t want to follow your orders.”

“But I’ve already fought with him before.”

“And… I lost.”

Hmm?

Ning Kun was deeply astonished.

Yu Tiandu was from the Taicang State.

Logically speaking, the martial arts he had encountered and his combat experience should far surpass the Green Cloud Sect disciples.

What’s more, his cultivation was one level higher than Jiang Fan’s.

Yet he had actually been defeated?

Ning Kun reexamined Jiang Fan and let out a faint snort. “No wonder you’re so arrogant.”

“Turns out you have some real strength.”

“But rules are rules.”

“If you haven’t reached the Eighth Layer of Core Formation, you cannot form a team.”

“I still have to bring you to see the Pavilion Master!”

This time, he decided to handle it personally.

With a low shout,

his sleeves billowed.

The overwhelming Spiritual Power of a Ninth Layer Core Formation cultivator radiated an intense pressure.

Everyone present, except Mu Ying whose expression remained relaxed,

showed a hint of pain on their faces.

Just the aura was so frightening.

It was scary to imagine how powerful his techniques could be.

“Piercing the Clouds to See the Moon!”

He unleashed his palms, evoking a breathtaking image of scattered clouds revealing moonlit brilliance.

The force was so immense that even an Eighth Layer Core Formation cultivator would struggle to counter it.

He executed the move with full strength.

Toward such an unorthodox and arrogant junior, he would never show mercy.

Seeing Ning Kun’s seriousness,

Jiang Fan naturally dared not be careless.

“Divine Lord’s Vastness!”

Without hesitation, he decisively activated the Brahma Saint True Spirit Technique.

A divine statue materialized abruptly and simultaneously launched four palms.

Boom—

Upon collision, the resulting intense shockwave cracked the extraordinary floor with numerous fissures.

Everyone besides Mu Ying was blown back, unable to hold their ground.

Ning Kun, on the other hand, turned pale with shock.

The opponent had actually withstood his full-powered strike?

And clearly, the opponent still had more tricks to use?

At this moment,

the divine statue behind Jiang Fan retracted its palms and gradually dissipated.

Jiang Fan cupped his hands and said, “Chief Steward Ning’s strength is profound; this junior is utterly humbled.”

His voice was calm, without a hint of panting.

Ning Kun, however, was breathing heavily, his palm slightly numb, his chest churning with fluctuating energy.

The difference in strength was clear to him.

Jiang Fan was simply giving him a way out to avoid embarrassment, offering a dignified retreat.

Gazing at Jiang Fan with a complex expression, Ning Kun’s eyes betrayed a touch of astonishment:

“I truly misjudged him.”

This Jiang Fan is the most deserving candidate among the new disciples.

Even though Mu Ying’s strength was comparable to Jiang Fan’s,

Mu Ying was already twenty-two or twenty-three, having cultivated several more years than Jiang Fan.

In terms of potential, Jiang Fan far surpassed Mu Ying.

Such a missed opportunity!

“Chief Steward Ning, does Jiang Fan’s team count or not?” Yu Tiandu couldn’t quite figure out the situation.

He wasn’t able to discern how much power Ning Kun had truly used in his strike.

If it was only one or two-tenths of Ning Kun’s strength, Jiang Fan barely holding his ground wouldn’t mean much.

The Eighth Layer cultivator Jiang Baihua and the Ninth Layer Mu Ying both showed thoughtful expressions.

The shockwave from earlier didn’t seem like something a duel between Seventh Layer cultivators could produce.

A Fifth Layer disciple from outside snorted, “Of course not.”

“Chief Steward Ning clearly didn’t use his full strength.”

“Out of leniency toward a newcomer, he must have only used one or two-tenths of his power.”

This comment made Ning Kun’s face turn red.

He coughed lightly and avoided answering, saying: “Though Jiang Fan’s cultivation hasn’t reached the Eighth Layer of Core Formation,”

“his actual strength has.”

“He’s qualified to establish a team.”

“Alright, Commissioner Luo, what are you standing around for?”

“Hurry up and process the team for my disciple!”

He tossed the Commissioner Token back to Luo Dongcheng.

Luo Dongcheng caught it in a daze, his mind completely muddled.

So, Jiang Fan’s reassurance to let him rest assured,

had been literal all along.

It turned out Jiang Fan had no need to bribe after all.

The Spiritual Meat had merely been a gift from Jiang Fan.

This realization filled Luo Dongcheng with gratitude, and he quickly bowed to Jiang Fan: “Thank you, Junior Brother Jiang!”

Jiang Fan smiled slightly.

He turned to regroup with Shang Shiqiu.

Shang Shiqiu blinked a few times and muttered, “You… you’re this strong?”

“I thought this freshly formed team would disperse immediately just now.”

She was well aware of Ning Kun’s character.

Without meeting the Eighth Layer requirement, Ning Kun would never let Jiang Fan off the hook.

“No need to talk about that now. Let’s head to the underground world soon,” Jiang Fan said eagerly.

Shang Shiqiu couldn’t help but laugh somewhat bitterly: “Aren’t you being a bit too impatient?”

“Entering the underground world requires a Jade Talisman as proof.”

“It’s fine for you since I can get one for you from my master.”

“But as for the other three, they’ll need to retrieve theirs from their masters.”

Jiang Fan recalled that before entering with Dharma Seal Vajra, the Pavilion Master had given him a Jade Talisman.

He sighed helplessly and said, “Then let’s gather back here later.”

The group nodded and went their separate ways.

Shang Shiqiu said, “Junior Brother, let me take you on a tour of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion and explain the rules along the way.”

Jiang Fan nodded.

The so-called rules were mostly similar to those of the Nine-Sect.

Still, Jiang Fan listened attentively.

Before they knew it, an entire two-hour period had passed.

The rules had been explained, and the upper levels of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion explored.

The two were heading toward the Task Hall for their rendezvous.

Suddenly, a sweet voice called out from outside the hall: “Fan, come here.”

Hmm?

The only one who called him that was Liu Qingxian, right?

Following the voice, he looked over.

He saw Liu Qingxian standing outside the high walls of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

With an air of mystery, she beckoned him with a curling finger: “Come with me.”

Jiang Fan was puzzled. “Why are you outside the hall?”

Liu Qingxian smiled cryptically: “Just come.”

“I have a surprise for you.”

Confused, Jiang Fan turned to Shang Shiqiu and said, “Senior Sister Shang, could you let Chaoge and Senior Brother Liang know to wait for a bit?”

Shang Shiqiu pouted:

“You’ll be together every single day later on, and you still care about this little moment?”

“Won’t you grow tired of each other?”

“Fine, just go.”

Jiang Fan chuckled helplessly and followed Liu Qingxian away.

Meanwhile, Shang Shiqiu strolled toward the Task Hall.

Xia Chaoge and Liang Feiyan were already waiting there.

But Liu Qingxian was waiting there too.

Wait a minute!

Shang Shiqiu abruptly turned to look at Liu Qingxian:

“Y-you… weren’t you outside just now?”
