For the past month, Lin Fan had been cultivating diligently every day. Not only did he cultivate his Qi Refinement cultivation, but he also cultivated his sword spirit and comprehended the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Mantra.
Lin Fan was no longer a mortal and could not clearly understand the Seven Emotions and Six Desires of the mortal world.
However, emotions also existed in the world of immortals. From time to time, there would be a hint of enlightenment, which would allow him to continuously improve the four types of cultivation techniques he had mastered.
As for the cultivation of a sword spirit, he only needed to be willing to use his blood essence. In the past, he had persevered in his cultivation. After a month of hard work, Lin Fan's sword spirit had already stepped out of the Sword Embryo Stage and reached the Transformation Stage. The body of the sword had already condensed into a human form. This human form was the shape of Little Luo's soul from before. Now, she wanted to borrow Lin Fan's sword and his blood essence to revive.
However, she had not completely condensed yet.
She was still in the stage of a child.
If Lin Fan used the sword spirit to attack now, the sword spirit would no longer emit an infant's scream, but a child's voice.
After the sword spirit transformed, it would live like a five or six-year-old child. As its realm continued to increase, the sword spirit would also continue to grow, grow, and mature …
When it reached the Condensation Stage, it would then transform into a little Luo Li's soul, which was a 14 or 15-year-old girl. After continuous cultivation, when it reached the Separation Stage, the sword spirit, which was Little Luo, would completely separate from the sword body. At that time, the little Luo Li's soul would be completely revived.
However, she was still not an ordinary human. If she wanted to grow and become stronger, she had to return to the sword body.
Moreover, the sword spirit was always under the control of its master.
In the future, it could only rely on its master.
This was because it was nourished by its master's blood essence.
Lin Fan was looking forward to the sword spirit.
He hoped that this little Luo Li would appear in front of him.
In his life, he had many women.
However, none of them had given birth to a daughter for him. He hoped to have a daughter of his own. After the sword spirit separated, he would treat this little Luo Li as his daughter.
However …
He was afraid that this little Luo Li would not treat him as her father. This was because when "Sword Maniac" Yue Buhui taught him the sword spirit technique, he had said that after the sword spirit separated, it would treat the sword master as her lover.
The Sword Master would also treat the Sword Spirit as his woman.
The Sword Master and the Sword Spirit had to reach the state of Unity of Spirit and Body. Otherwise, the Sword Spirit would not be able to unleash its greatest power.
The Sword Spirit made a breakthrough.
His Aura Refining cultivation had also improved, but in the short span of a month, Lin Fan hadn't made any substantial breakthroughs.
And at this time, the Liquid Gathering Pills in the Sumeru Ring had been used up. If he only relied on the spirit of heaven and earth to cultivate, the speed would be extremely slow, no different from the general Great Principle Golden Immortal.
He had to improve quickly.
There must be a continuous supply of Liquid Gathering Pills.
However, he hadn't received any assassination missions in the past month.
Lin Fan only had a monthly income, which was not enough to satisfy his needs for rapid cultivation.
On this day, Lin Fan prepared to go out.
He would use the remaining gold and silk he had to buy some Liquid Gathering Pills. Although he did not have much gold and silk on hand, he had heard about it.
The number of Liquid Gathering Pills is very rare. Ordinary pill stores don't sell it.
The rarer something is, the more valuable it is.
The price of a Liquid-gathering Pill was very expensive, almost five times that of a Qi-gathering Pill.
The amount of gold and silk Lin Fan had was not enough to buy hundreds of them.
But on this day, before Lin Fan went out, he received a summons from the Tower Master Hei Xuanfeng.
Deacon Wen Tianliang also received a summons.
Wen Tianliang was a Great Principle Golden Immortal Ninth Liquid Realm cultivator. He was powerful, but in terms of position, he was a lot worse than Lin Fan.
Although both of them were deacons, Wen Tianliang was only responsible for the assassins' lives in Storm House. It was an idle job.
In the end, he had no substantial power.
However, this Wen Tianliang was like his name, gentle and refined. He was very kind and amiable. He treated people very humbly. However, it was because of this that he was not in an important position.
One must know that Bi Luo Boundary was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. The law of the jungle was the law of the jungle. What kind of organization was Storm House?
It was an assassin organization!
Radical, strange, ruthless, and cruel …
Such a gentle and kind person was not in line with the aura of Storm House. How could he have great achievements?
How could he be in an important position?
Although Lin Fan's Qi Refining Realm was weak, although Lin Fan was restless and often did things that were out of line, it made people worry.
But it was because of this that Tower Master Hei Xuanfeng valued him. Although he also hoped that Lin Fan would know his place, if Lin Fan knew his place, he would not be valued by him.
"Greetings, Deacon Lin!"
The moment they met, Wen Tianliang greeted Lin Fan politely. His attitude was warm, and even a little humble.
Although the two of them were of the same level, he obviously regarded Lin Fan higher.
"Greetings, Deacon Wen."
Lin Fan returned the greeting. Lin Fan was like this. The more others respected him, the more amiable he was to them.
Moreover, since he became a deacon, Wen Tianliang was not jealous of him. He felt that this person was very good.
The two of them chatted intermittently. In fact, there was nothing to talk about. They only talked about who had become assassins of Storm House recently.
The cultivation and character of these assassins and so on …
The two of them chatted as they walked into Tower Master Hei Xuanfeng's room. Since Tower Master Hei Xuanfeng summoned them in his room, it was obviously a big matter. Sure enough, when they entered, they found that Deputy Tower Master An Qing was also there. He was sitting with Tower Master Hei Xuanfeng on a soft couch in front of a round table, drinking tea.
But it could be seen that the two of them were not relaxed.
"You're here. Have a seat." Tower Master Hei Xuanfeng pointed at the chair opposite the table.
The two of them sat down.
House Master Hei Xuanfeng glanced at the two of them and went straight to the point. "The reason I called you here today is because of a very important matter. A month ago, according to the intelligence personnel of Galerain House in the Milky Way Region, three Evil Immortals of the Purple Mansion Realm sneaked into the territory of the orthodox practitioners and caused several disasters. The Emperor of Azure Heaven summoned all the House Masters of Galerain House in the Milky Way Region to eliminate them …
As the Tower Master of Anyang Region, Lord An Qing and I have to act according to the order. From tomorrow onwards, we will leave Storm House for a period of time. The mission is a little special, so the time can't be accurately determined. If it's short, it'll be a month. If it's long, it'll be half a year. In short, it's hard to say …
During the time we're away, the two of you have to take responsibility and take care of Storm House well. "
"Lin Fan, you're young and reckless. You're impatient and restless. If there's anything in the future, you have to discuss it with Wen Tianliang. After all, he's dozens of years older than you and has been in Storm House for a longer time …"
Lin Fan agreed.
"In short, the two of you have to maintain a good relationship. If there's anything in the future, you have to discuss it more.
During the time we're away, nothing can go wrong … "Tower Master Hei Xuanfeng solemnly instructed.
"Yes!" Lin Fan and Wen Tianliang replied in unison.
Then, they looked at each other with friendly looks on their faces.
The next day, Tower Master Hei Xuanfeng and Deputy Tower Master An Qing left Storm House. Lin Fan and Wen Tianliang each carried out their own duties and lived in peace.
On the second week of Tower Master Hei Xuanfeng and An Qing's departure, something happened in Storm House.
Ling Xuefei sent a message through the Communication Jade Charm. She said that her Ling Family had been attacked and besieged by a big family.
After Hei Xuanfeng received the message, Lin Fan and Wen Tianliang immediately met to discuss the matter. They first contacted Ling Xuefei through the Communication Jade Charm and got a better understanding of the matter.
The news they received was that a cultivation family with the surname Li had some disputes with the Ling Family in business. They used their enormous power and wealth to attack the Ling Family and were determined to exterminate the Ling Family.
However, the Li Family saw that Ling Xuefei was an assassin of Storm House and had some misgivings, so they didn't attack Ling Xuefei and her family.
After receiving the accurate information.
Lin Fan and Wen Tianliang both expressed their opinions.
In the end, the two of them had different opinions. Lin Fan was extremely anxious at this moment. He wanted to help Ling Xuefei wholeheartedly. Although Ling Xuefei wasn't his woman, he had a good impression of Ling Xuefei. Moreover, Ling Xuefei was very protective of him.
Moreover, the two had gone through life and death together several times. When they killed Sage Shrouding Heaven, Ling Xuefei had helped him. Now that Ling Xuefei was in trouble, Lin Fan couldn't not help her.
Wen Tianliang's opinion was … to do things according to the rules.
In the Falling Heaven Domain, conflicts between cultivation families would happen from time to time and they were usually quite tragic.
However, as long as they didn't harm others, there wasn't any power that would interfere. Because of a business dispute, the Li Clan had acted against the Ling Clan. The Ling Clan was weak and was swallowed up or destroyed by the Li Clan. Although this was intolerable, Galerain House didn't have the power in this area, nor did they have the obligation to interfere. Galerain House only had the right and responsibility to protect the assassins in the organization and their immediate family members.
This was the rule of Storm House. Since the establishment of Storm House, tens of thousands of years had passed and it hadn't changed.
Now, it naturally wouldn't change.
Wen Tianliang said, "Since the Li Family didn't attack Ling Xuefei and her family, then Storm House.
According to the rules, our Storm House didn't do anything.
There was no need to attack … "
Lin Fan said, "The rules are dead, but people are alive."
"Deacon Lin, don't forget that we are an assassin organization, not a large sect. We have the spirit of brotherhood and friendship between us. We are also not a friendly organization that would use the power of the entire Storm House for a single assassin. In short,
You have to understand that we are assassins … "
Lin Fan said angrily, "What's wrong with assassins?
Assassins should be heartless. Can't assassins have brotherhood and sisterhood?
When an assassin is in trouble, others can't help. I'll say something unpleasant. If one day your Wen Tianliang Family is in trouble, can you just sit by and do nothing?? "
Lin Fan's words were quite sharp and refuted Wen Tianliang until he was speechless.
Wen Tianliang frowned and sighed. "Lin Fan, I'm not sure what to do.
To tell you the truth, I also want to help the members of the organization when they are in trouble, but Storm House's rules can't be changed.
The rules of Storm House could not be changed. Once it was started, it would get out of hand.
There are close to a hundred assassins in Anyang Domain's Storm House.
If everyone is in trouble, how will Storm House deal with it?
… "
"Make an exception.
Gather a few brothers with high cultivation. "Lin Fan said.
"If it's an exception, it can only be made by the Lord and Vice Lord. Others don't have this authority. Moreover, this exception must be made in an extremely secretive situation. Now that this matter is known by everyone, if this exception is made, I'm afraid there will be a second, third or even fourth exception in the future. At that time, the exception will no longer be an exception … Storm House will no longer be Storm House …" Wen Tianliang spread out his hands, expressing helplessness and powerlessness.
Wen Tianliang's reasoning finally annoyed Lin Fan. Lin Fan suddenly stood up and said, "Alright, I'll go alone.
I'll represent myself. That should be fine … "
"Of course, but I have to remind you that you are not allowed to use the authority in your hands. You are not allowed to call for other assassins …" Wen Tianliang solemnly reminded.
"Don't worry, I'll go alone. I won't call for anyone else." Lin Fan coldly said and left.
…
