Chapter 1577 - 372: How Did You Know Who I Am? (Part 4)
The group of cultivators who came to spectate and maintain neutrality were shocked to learn that the mysterious powerful figure was Wei Qiu’s granduncle; they could hardly believe it.
With such a terrifying cultivator as a backing, Baoling Sect’s position in Central State was unshakeable, and no cultivator could threaten Baoling Sect.
Wei Sisi’s mind was spinning quickly. She had heard stories from her grandfather about the granduncle since she was a child. Although they were all mundane matters, she had listened with great interest back then.
Now, the granduncle who had always been thought of as a mortal was not only alive but also such a formidable cultivator.
Having such a backing.
Who would dare to intimidate me, Wei Sisi, in the future?
Thinking of this.
Wei Sisi proactively leaned towards Lin Fan, "Granduncle, I am..."
"I know you, Sisi, I watched you grow up," Lin Fan replied.
"Ah?"
Wei Sisi blinked her eyes.
Lin Fan said, "I’ve always been by your side, only you couldn’t see me, but I could see you."
Wei An said, "I knew it, it wasn’t just my imagination back then; granduncle has always been by my side, right?"
"Yes."
Lin Fan looked at the aging Wei An, lamenting the ruthless nature of time. Well, Wei An didn’t have much time left, so he decided to continue being by his side as he used to.
The third ordeal ended here.
The neutral cultivators voluntarily started to build ties with Wei Qiu. After all, what had happened today was truly shocking, enough to make Central State tremble.
Wei Qiu thanked them for their neutrality; though, with such events happening, a buffer was needed, so he did not invite them to stay temporarily at Baoling Sect.
Baoling Sect’s disciples were exhilarated, their spirits soaring, their demeanor transformed. The reason was none other than the appearance of the sect leader’s granduncle.
He was an invincible cultivator who could suppress the Black Dragon Ancestor with just a stone.
To them, it was a mountain placed in front, providing great relief.
The next day.
The events at Baoling Sect spread throughout Central State.
When cultivators from various places learned about this situation, each one was shocked beyond belief.
The Black Dragon Ancestor was suppressed.
The strong members of the Black Dragon Clan fell entirely in Baoling Sect.
And those cultivators who helped Black Dragon Clan attack Baoling Sect all died miserably.
Each piece of news fiercely impacted their nerves.
The remaining members of the Black Dragon Clan were frightened; some fled overnight, far away from Central State, fearing Baoling Sect’s revenge. After all, the reason the Black Dragon Clan could be so domineering was definitely because the Black Dragon Ancestor was backing them.
Now that the Black Dragon Ancestor was suppressed, the Black Dragon Clan naturally declined.
Years later.
"Grand...granduncle..."
The exhausted Wei An lay on the bed, even though his consciousness had already blurred, he still grasped Lin Fan’s hand, calling Lin Fan.
"Little Wei An..." Lin Fan responded softly.
Wei Qiu and the others gathered around the bed, each with lost emotions.
"Granduncle, granduncle..."
In the room, only Wei An’s weak voice could be heard.
Outside, the sun shone bright, time passed second by second, the sun gradually set to the west, and the shining rays dimmed.
Sunset over the mountains.
"He’s gone."
In the room, Lin Fan felt Wei An’s life fading away, and when the end was reached, all the breath vanished.
"Father..."
"Grandfather..."
Wei Qiu and the others knelt by the bedside, crying sorrowfully.
Lin Fan leaned down to kiss Little Wei An’s forehead, looking fondly at the serene face. A hundred years of companionship, the depth of emotion, naturally doesn’t need much saying.
"Little Wei An, if there is a next life, I hope you can go and live in my hometown."
The subsequent matters were handed over to Wei Qiu to handle.
Days later.
Lin Fan arrived at Little Wei An’s grave.
"Little Wei An, granduncle should leave now."
He stood before the tombstone, softly speaking, looking at the inscription, reminiscing about the past.
"Immortal Wei, I kept my word. I let Little Wei An live peacefully through a lifetime, only his children continued down the path of cultivation, which I think would be a real waste if the talent was buried."
"I think if I unseal Little Wei An, he’d definitely be more exceptional than Wei Qiu."
After speaking for a while.
Lin Fan looked towards the distant horizon, in the direction of Baoling Sect. In the unseen world, the amalgamated fortune above the Immortal Gate indicated Baoling Sect’s promising future.
He could also leave with peace of mind.
On this day.
"Granduncle, granduncle..."
Wei Sisi came looking for Lin Fan to play, opening the door, only to discover something amiss with the atmosphere; the room was empty, with a letter on the table.
Wei Sisi seemed to have anticipated something, and opened the envelope.
"When you read this letter, I have already left..."
Later on.
Having read the letter, Wei Sisi murmured to herself...
"Granduncle..."
She didn’t know where granduncle had gone, but he had certainly gone to do something most important.
...
Earth Immortal Realm.
Two figures dashed swiftly through the forest, looking rather bedraggled; a glance back revealed a giant one-horned python chasing behind.
This giant python was immense, as thick as a barrel, and in the blink of an eye, it surged hundreds of meters.
"I said not to provoke such a tricky demon beast like the Sky Swallowing Python; its scent tracking ability is strong, and it’s difficult for us to shake it off," said the man, who looked young, but in the cultivation world, judging age by appearance is utterly foolish; some might look tender yet could be several hundred years old."
