Chapter 2796: Return to the Buddhist Realm?

"O… okay." Long Cheng had no other choice. He also knew very well that if he didn't agree, Xiao Fan would definitely kill him without hesitation.

"Very good."

Xiao Fan nodded and used the same Restriction he had previously used to control Qian Daoling, applying it onto Long Cheng.

Long Cheng dared not resist. He felt a new Divine Thought appear in his mind; it was the Slave Mark that Xiao Fan had placed on him. If Xiao Fan wished, he could completely destroy his Primordial Spirit through that Divine Thought.

After doing this, Xiao Fan nodded with satisfaction: "Alright, you can go now…"

"…Yes." Long Cheng nodded, his expression ugly, and turned to leave.

Although he had become Xiao Fan's slave, he was at least still alive. If he were dead, he would have nothing left.

Long Cheng felt that as long as he was alive, there was still hope; as long as he didn't die, it would be fine.

Watching Long Cheng leave, Huian asked in confusion: "Big Brother, what's the use of taking him as a slave?"

"Who knows… Let's just keep him for now." Xiao Fan smiled indifferently.

The battle in the vicinity had already concluded, but they could not stay here for long, as experts from the Divine Dragon Realm and Heavenly Phoenix Realm might arrive later.

Furthermore, Xiao Fan was unsure if the Kongchen Realm would send anyone over.

"Big Brother, come with me to the Buddhist Realm." Huian looked at Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan hesitated for a moment and pondered seriously. After a while, he shook his head: "I cannot go with you."

"Why?" Huian exclaimed in bewilderment.

The three elderly monks of the Divine Wheel Realm nearby also revealed looks of confusion, simultaneously looking at Xiao Fan.

Commander Jia You and the others from Fortress 199 were the same, all looking at Xiao Fan with confused expressions.

What was Xiao Fan planning?

If Xiao Fan didn't go to the Buddhist Realm now, where else could he go?

He definitely couldn't go back to the Kongchen Realm, and the Dragon and Phoenix clans would certainly not let the matter rest. Xiao Fan could be said to be in great danger.

"If I go back with you, I will implicate you." Xiao Fan said calmly.

This time, Huian had helped him, which already counted as involving the Buddhist Realm. If Xiao Fan followed Huian to the Buddhist Realm afterwards, it would definitely drag the Buddhist Realm in even deeper.

It might even become the fuse that causes a war between the Buddhist Realm and the Dragon and Phoenix clans.

Xiao Fan was unwilling to do that; after all, it would certainly make Huian's situation in the Buddhist Realm very difficult later on.

If the Buddhist Realm forced Huian to hand him over, hoping to quell the anger of the Dragon and Phoenix clans using him, what would happen?

All these things might not seem like much now, but once they actually happened, it would mean Xiao Fan had placed his own life and fate into the hands of the Buddhist Realm.

Xiao Fan did not want to do that. He wanted to have the power of choice, to keep the battlefield in his own hands, even if he might die later!

"This… Big Brother, you are in great danger yourself." Huian's expression was ugly, and he still wanted to persuade him to stay.

"Buddha Son, listen to Patron Xiao… If things escalate later, I'm afraid even you won't be able to protect Patron Xiao." One of the Divine Wheel Realm elderly monks said with his hands pressed together.

They understood this point the best. Although Huian was the Buddha Son and held a high status in the Buddhist Realm, the Buddhist Realm was not his to command alone.

If Xiao Fan truly endangered the safety of the Buddhist Realm, even the Buddha would not protect Xiao Fan to the end; this was an unknown.

"This… Alright, Big Brother, take care." Huian hesitated for a moment before finally nodding heavily.

In truth, he himself was unsure what would happen if Xiao Fan went with him to the Buddhist Realm.

Therefore, Huian thought it was better for Xiao Fan to leave on his own for now.

After all, with Xiao Fan's abilities, he still had the strength to protect himself in the Heavens Battlefield.

"Alright, don't worry." Xiao Fan smiled and patted Huian's shoulder.

Xiao Fan looked at Commander Jia You and the others, whose Faces were livid…

With the Kongchen Realm doing such a thing, their faith had now collapsed, and furthermore, Commander Jia You and the others were very lost about where to go from here.

"Do you have any plans?" Xiao Fan asked.

"This… No." Commander Jia You shook his head, his Face livid.

"If that won't work, you can follow me to the Buddhist Realm." Huian smiled. For the sake of Xiao Fan's Face, it wouldn't hurt to help Commander Jia You and these people.

"This… Forget it, forget it. We'd better go back to the Kongchen Realm. At worst, we'll just pretend we don't know anything." Commander Jia You immediately shook his head.

What kind of place was the Buddhist Realm?

That was a Holy Land for brainwashing; he didn't want to go there and eat vegetarian food and chant scriptures every day…
