Chapter 1892: Thick-Skinned

"Fair enough… You have a point." Xiao Fan nodded.

The two had a conversation.

Afterward, unless there was a Barrier set up by Wanxiang, they would not discuss anything else.

This was only because they were in the Yuding Sect.

If they were in any other major power, Xiao Fan wouldn't necessarily feel at ease even if Wanxiang had set up a Barrier.

An expert of the level of the Old Monk of Ziyun Temple had methods that were simply too bizarre.

If he were targeted by such an expert, he worried that the sound-isolation Formation would fail.

Luo Tian left and returned to his own Immortal Cave.

Both parties left behind a communication jade slip for each other.

They would notify each other if anything came up later.

Inside the Immortal Cave, Xiao Fan had Wanxiang put away the Formation that had just been set up.

"Wait for now… I reckon the old geezers here might not be able to sit still for long." Xiao Fan chuckled to himself.

He had acted like such a Prodigy.

There were other purposes behind it.

The stronger his strength was… the more importance the Yuding Sect would place on him.

With a Prodigy of this level joining the Sect, the Yuding Sect would definitely want to nurture him well!

If they didn't, wouldn't that mean the Yuding Sect was blind?

Of course, this was all just Xiao Fan's speculation.

Perhaps other unforeseen events might occur.

But that didn't matter.

If it really didn't work out, Xiao Fan would just leave and go to the next one.

If all else failed, Xiao Fan could just go find Huian.

By then, he would just let the little monk handle his spot to enter the Prodigy Secret Realm.

…

Inside the Yuding Sect's main hall.

At this moment, the Yuding Sect Patriarch had also come out of seclusion.

This was a powerhouse in the Liandao Realm.

The Sect Master, Elders, and Grand Elder were all present.

They were all discussing matters regarding Xiao Fan!

"What is this child's background and origin? Has it been investigated yet?" the Yuding Sect Patriarch asked in a deep voice.

"We have investigated, but so far there is no news…"

"Why is it so slow? Speed up the investigation!" the Yuding Sect Patriarch urged impatiently.

"Yes, yes!" the Yuding Sect Master replied.

He felt bitter inside.

Xiao Fan had only joined the Yuding Sect for a few days.

He hadn't even had time to send people to investigate yet!

"Patriarch, we originally intended to observe this child for a while, but this… what do you think now?" an Elder asked.

"A Prodigy Genius of this level might be the hope of our Yuding Sect…" the Yuding Sect Patriarch muttered, his eyes flickering as he struggled to make a decision.

He didn't know how to handle this matter regarding Xiao Fan.

Should they start prioritizing him immediately and nurture him vigorously?

Or should they continue observing!

The first option carried the fear that Xiao Fan had ulterior motives or was an ungrateful wretch, wasting their efforts.

The second option carried the fear of chilling Xiao Fan's heart and causing him to leave the Yuding Sect!

This was a dilemma.

It left the upper echelons of the Yuding Sect lost in deep thought.

For a moment, they didn't know what to do.

…

The investigation lasted for a full seven days.

But the Yuding Sect couldn't find any information about Xiao Fan at all.

This person seemed to have appeared out of thin air.

His background was mysterious, with not a single trace to be found.

In the end, the upper echelons of the Yuding Sect decided to take a gamble.

They had the Sect Master and several Elders go to contact Xiao Fan and express their intention to nurture him vigorously!

During these few days, the entire Yuding Sect was in an uproar.

Everything being discussed fervently was about Xiao Fan.

"That Xiao Tian is too powerful… You didn't see it at the time, but he defeated Senior Brother Zhuang Shi with a single punch!"

"Senior Sister Lin Ling's Myriad Swords… in front of Xiao Tian's punch… all became mere decorations."

"Luo Tian, a person so arrogant, ended up obediently becoming Xiao Tian's servant!"

"You didn't see it, before that Xiao Tian left, he called Luo Tian a servant, and Luo Tian didn't even dare to resist!"

"…"

Within the Yuding Sect, people were discussing matters regarding Xiao Fan in countless places.

And the way they discussed it was often by praising one while stepping on others.

Luo Tian, Senior Brother Zhuang Shi, and Senior Sister Lin Ling had all become stepping stones for Xiao Fan.

Especially Luo Tian…

Others were defeated, but he had become a servant.

There were many voices mocking him.

"This Luo Tian really has no brains… He dared to accept such a bet." someone mocked.

"You can't blame him either; he probably didn't think he would lose!"

"…"

If Luo Tian heard these remarks, he would probably be so angry he'd vomit blood.

But he couldn't refute them, because he really couldn't beat Xiao Fan.

As the Yuding Sect Master and Elders were on their way to Xiao Fan's Immortal Cave, they overheard these discussions.

Their expressions were complex.

The fermentation of the matter was far more serious than they had imagined.

If they didn't vigorously nurture such a Prodigy Genius, the Yuding Sect Disciples would likely be surprised.

They would think the Sect was blind!

The group arrived outside Xiao Fan's Immortal Cave.

Xiao Fan enthusiastically welcomed the Yuding Sect Master and the Elders inside.

"Come, come, come… don't be polite, just treat this as your own home."

Xiao Fan was beaming, and after welcoming them in, he even prepared tea sets to brew tea, warmly entertaining them.

"…"

The Yuding Sect Master and several Elders were surprised.

Why would they need to be polite?

The Yuding Sect was originally their territory.

But this also gave them a first impression of Xiao Fan.

That was that he was thick-skinned!!
