Cultivation Pet Shop

When Lin Fan left the room, he was led back to the contestant waiting room by the staff member who had been waiting outside.

This time, the staff member was no longer as casual as before, rather he was much more respectful towards Lin Fan.

Someone who could meet the Alchemy Master and his guest, it seemed like this Fan Lin's backing really wasn't small.

Lin Fan came back to the waiting room and finished watching the remaining matches, which took another four hours. In between that time, there was an hour long break given for the viewers and contestants to take lunch.

Once the first round of one hundred was finished, the contestants were once again called onto the stage to draw their next opponents. Once again Lin Fan was called up first.

After a quick introduction by the host, Lin Fan was allowed to draw his ball.

When the ball was opened, what was revealed was a piece of paper that had the number 1 on it.

As soon as he finished drawing his ball, he was sent back to the contestant room to wait for his turn, but he didn't have to wait long since there were less people drawing this time.

Since he was number 1 again, he was immediately brought out in the first batch and once again he defeated his opponent as easily as flipping his hand. His opponent was left crying as he continued trying to finish refining his pill even though he knew that he had already lost.

Lin Fan came back to the waiting room and was told that he could either leave now since his matches were over or he could stay to watch his competition. Lin Fan being someone who treasured his time, he naturally chose to leave.

When he left, everyone in the waiting room looked at him with a bit of anger since it was clear that this person was looking down on them. He clearly thought that they weren't worth his time at all, but there was nothing they could do with his dazzling performance.

Lin Fan left the stadium and came to an alley to take off his disguise before sending a message to Elder Hua.

His plan would all come to fruition tomorrow, he needed to make sure that everything was ready, which meant that it was finally time to tell Elder Hua his plan.

…

That night, in one of the top private rooms in one of the best restaurants in Green Wood City, there was a meeting being held.

At this large table that was clearly meant for a large conference, there were only two people sitting. One was an old man and the other was a young girl.

If one were to guess, they would think that it was the young girl who had invited the old man, but it was actually the opposite.

When that old man looked at the young girl, his eyes were filled with a bit of fear and his actions contained reverence. He was very careful in everything he did, like he was afraid that any mistake would anger her.

The young girl just enjoyed the dishes that had been brought in and never said a single word.

Finally the old man couldn't take it anymore and asked, "Your highness, if I may ask, why did you come to this lower realm?"

The young girl just casually ate her food before saying, "Well, it seems like your Alchemy King Hall has been acting quite overbearing lately. Why else do you think I'm in this lower realm?"

While her tone was very calm, the old man could hear the implications that were behind her words. The old man immediately broke out in a cold sweat as he said with a bow, "Your highness, we wouldn't dare to act that way, this is all a misunderstanding. If there is some way that we have offended you, we will immediately fix it."

The young girl was still very casual as she said, "No, no, you haven't offended me, yet. You should know what that brat from your place has been doing. If you keep letting him act this way, you might provoke someone who you can't afford to provoke."

The old man was confused when he heard this, but then he remembered that the reason they had been called down was because of a pet shop with a mysterious faction behind them. His eyes suddenly filled with understanding as he thought, "Could it be that this pet shop is related to the princess?"

When this thought entered his mind, he immediately stood up and bowed to the young girl, "Your highness, we didn't know! Please show mercy, we will definitely cease all actions in this lower realm immediately!"

The young girl waved her hand and said, "No, I never said that. You will allow that brat to do what he wants to do until the end, but when he inevitably gets taken down, you will step in and clean up the mess. Do you understand what I mean?"

The old man was stunned. The princess was basically asking him to throw away that kid they had trained and to use him as a grinding stone, then he had to even clean up the mess and create a good relationship with the one who destroyed the one from their faction. This was basically asking them to take the slap to the face and smile while doing so.

But the old man only hesitated for a second before he agreed to her request.

This young girl didn't seem like much, but she was someone that came from even above the Galactic Humanity Alliance. With just a simple wave of her hand, she could clean out all ten of their factions and replace them within a single day. To offend someone like this would be equal to walking the path of death and this old man still wanted to live.

The young girl nodded when she heard him agree and then she said, "The only thing you have to make sure of is that the owner of that shop doesn't get hurt. If he does, neither of us can handle the consequences, understood?"

The old man was filled with curiosity at this, but he knew that he shouldn't ask with how serious her tone was. The old man just agreed to everything the young girl told him.

The young girl nodded once again before waving her hand to send the old man out.

Once the old man was gone, with a few distortions in the air, there was a dark figure that suddenly appeared beside the young girl. This figure had been in the room the entire time, but the old man had never noticed this person.

Once the dark figure appeared, he gave a bow to the young girl before saying, "Your highness, why are you so insistent on protecting that young man?"

The young girl ignored this and said, "You will follow him during this time and make sure that he is safe. But you will not interfere unless his life is in danger. He needs to experience danger to grow, but we can't let anything happen to him."

The dark figure knit their brows as they asked, "Your highness, is this really worth it?"

The young girl knit her brows as well, "When have you ever questioned my orders? This is my direct order to you, are you disobeying me now?"

The dark figure still didn't give up, "Your highness, there's still many things to take care of back in the kingdom, but you keep running down to this lower realm. If we continue doing this, we'll start losing bases and our power will drop."

Finally, the young girl relaxed her brows and said, "This is an order from that place. As long as we can finish this mission that they gave us, it doesn't matter if we lose a few bases. This is the most important thing."

The dark figure trembled in shock, "That place? Do you really mean that place?"

The young girl nodded and said, "Now do you understand why this is so important?"

The dark figure still knit his brows and said, "Your highness, are you still trying to…"

But before he could even finish, the young girl had cut him off, "Stop! Don't ask any further."

The dark figure gave a sigh before saying, "Your highness, you know that I would give my life for you, but this really doesn't seem like the right decision."

The young girl just smiled and said, "Grandpa, I know that you treat me best, I can only trust you with this."

The dark figure gave a helpless smile before saying, "Alright, alright, I'll do my best."

Once he said this, there were ripples in the air again before he disappeared.

The young girl stood up once that figure was gone and walked onto the balcony. When she walked out, the moonlight shined down on her face and if Lin Fan was here, he would have recognized her.

It was Zi Ling!

She just revealed a faint smile as she said, "That Lin Fan, he really gets into all kinds of trouble…"
