Chapter 275: Qianmo’s Three Aspirations

Zhang Qianmo chuckled at the words, "It's just a nightmare, Junior Brother, no need to take it seriously."

However, seeing Li Fan's burning gaze, Zhang Qianmo pondered for a moment and said, "My life's wish, huh…"

"To be honest, Junior Brother. Ever since I entered the Zixiao Sect and began to Cultivate, I've always had three major goals in my heart."

"It's just that they were deeply buried and I never mentioned them to anyone."

"Now that Junior Brother insists on asking, there's no harm in sharing them with you."

"Just treat them as a joke, no need to take them seriously!"

Zhang Qianmo's expression turned serious as he slowly said, "My wishes are three."

"Firstly, Yao Beasts are causing havoc, and lives are in misery. I wish to kill all the Yao Beasts in the world and restore peace to the human realm."

"Secondly, the Ten Great Immortal Sects are old and frail. They have power but no virtue, and can no longer command respect. I wish for the Zixiao Sect to replace them."

"Thirdly, the various Sects in the world hoard their treasures. There are countless Cultivation Techniques in the world, but they are all privately hoarded. Ordinary Cultivators, even with a Sect's treasured Cultivation Technique, cannot fully comprehend them in their entire lives. Let alone the countless other methods in the world."

"Life is finite, but the Dao is infinite. What a pity! The Dao can be Cultivated together, yet no Sect is willing to share Cultivation Techniques with the world."

"Narrow-minded, superficial! If I were to rule the world, I would collect all Cultivation Techniques and make them public."

"Everyone could choose the most suitable Cultivation Technique to Cultivate, and in a few years, the glorious era of ancient Cultivation would surely reappear."

Zhang Qianmo's words were shocking, as he spoke his three lifelong wishes in one breath.

Each one was more astonishing than the last.

Li Fan, upon hearing them, couldn't help but fall into deep silence.

After a long time, he finally let out a breath and said, "Senior Brother's aspirations are grand, I admire him!"

Zhang Qianmo laughed heartily at the words, "It's just some wild thoughts from encountering various injustices since I began Cultivating! Junior Brother, just take it as entertainment, no need to take it seriously!"

"Let's go!"

With that, he sped up towards Ningyuan City.

Li Fan followed closely behind, thinking to himself, "I can only pray that this place isn't being maintained by Zhang Shixiong's obsession. This Senior Brother of mine is truly no Mortal. His wishes are ridiculously grand."

"I wonder what his true fate was in history."

The two traveled in silence, and soon arrived at Ningyuan City.

They concealed their aura and transformed into the appearance of Mortals.

The two Senior and Junior Brothers swaggered into the city through the city gate.

"Junior Brother, you and I will split up. First, see if there's anything unusual in this city," Zhang Qianmo transmitted.

"Senior Brother, aren't you going to find your old flame, Chixia?" Li Fan immediately saw through his plan.

Zhang Qianmo was a little embarrassed at the words.

Just as he was about to explain, he heard Li Fan suddenly say, "If my spiritual premonition is correct, the danger in this city is directed at both of us."

"Then, presumably, an ambush has already been laid around Miss Chixia."

"If Senior Brother meets her rashly, he might just step into their trap."

"Senior Brother's Cultivator strength is formidable, so he naturally isn't afraid of them. I'm just worried that Miss Chixia might be implicated and perish."

Zhang Qianmo felt that this made a lot of sense.

After a moment of thought, he transmitted, "Junior Brother's considerations are more thorough. In that case, let's first secretly ascertain all the hidden threats in the city, then we'll make plans after we regroup."

Li Fan nodded in agreement.

Zhang Qianmo's figure slowly disappeared into the crowd.

Li Fan, already knowing the deployment of personnel in Ningyuan City like the back of his hand, naturally didn't need to painstakingly scout the area again.

The reason he guided Zhang Qianmo to do this was to delay the outbreak of the battle.

Before that, he wanted to re-examine Ningyuan City.

To find the true protagonist.

By now, Li Fan had Reincarnated more than ten times in this Fallen Immortal Realm's Ningyuan City.

Through Zhang Qianmo's words just now, even if he was somewhat unwilling to believe it, Li Fan knew very well that he had likely been mistaken all along.

The protagonist of this stage play was someone else, not Zhang Qianmo.

Because Senior Brother Zhang's obsession was too great.

And the stage of Ningyuan City was too small.

The mere incident of "being ambushed while retrieving the longevity fruit" couldn't match Senior Brother Zhang's grand aspirations.

"So, who exactly is the master of this temporal remnant?"

Li Fan scanned the busy Mortals in Ningyuan City.

"Could it be among these people?"

With this question, Li Fan began to wander around Ningyuan City.

It was a rather prosperous and vibrant city.

The Mortals lived here in peace and contentment, completely unaware of the impending catastrophe.

Following the crowded flow of people, Li Fan arrived at a street called "Yongqing Street."

The roadside was filled with various stalls, and many excited Mortals were enjoying themselves there.

Walking among them, Li Fan felt as if he had returned to Great Xuan.

That long-lost Mortal world.

Suddenly, Li Fan's footsteps paused slightly.

His Divine Sense surveyed his surroundings, and a faint, almost imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Then, he deliberately walked towards a dead-end alley not far away.

Behind him, several thin figures quickly followed.

They walked all the way to the depths of the alley, only to be startled when they realized the person they were tracking had disappeared.

Just as they were about to retreat, they found a figure blocking the exit.

It was Li Fan.

Li Fan looked at the five individuals who had been following him, tilting his head.

Five Mortals.

And they were scrawny, weak children.

The oldest was only about six or seven years old, bony and frail.

"What are you little rascals following me for?"

Li Fan asked, somewhat amused.

The five children were caught red-handed, their expressions a little nervous.

But none of them answered Li Fan's question, only staring at him intently.

Just as Li Fan was about to speak again, he heard one of them suddenly shout, "Gouzi!"

At the same time, the fierce roar of a dog suddenly sounded behind Li Fan.

The vicious dog arrived in an instant, about to pounce on Li Fan.

Li Fan had intended to simply crush it to death, but when he saw the "vicious dog's" appearance, he couldn't help but stop.

With a slight effort, he grabbed it.

Letting it roar fiercely, he held it up and examined it closely.

It indeed had the four limbs of a dog…

But its torso and head were human.

"What is this?"

"A Yao Beast?"

A strange light flashed in Li Fan's eyes.

Spiritual Qi surged from his body, circulating through its body.

Its roars gradually weakened, and it fell into a deep sleep.

"Gouzi!"

The five children behind him thought Gouzi was dead and cried out in anguish.

Ignoring the absolute disparity in strength, they all rushed towards Li Fan.

Li Fan gently brushed them away, and they all fell to the ground.

"It's not dead yet."

Li Fan said faintly.

"If you want to save its life, answer a few of my questions."

The children looked at each other and had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"This dog…"

Li Fan paused, then corrected himself.

"What's going on with this child?"

Li Fan asked.

That's right, after the recent examination, Li Fan discovered that the monster with a human body and dog paws in front of him.

Was not a Yao Beast.

But a human.

Only, it had been "grafted" with the limbs of a dog.
