Chapter 531 Special gift

"Sect Master Lin, I have brought the finest herbs from our sect as a gift for you today."

"Sect Master Lin, this is a fine wine that our sect prides itself on."

"Sect Master Lin, please accept this handcrafted spiritual sword."

There were many people that came up and presented different gifts to Lin Fan, but all of them left with a disappointed look.

Not a single one of them was able to stir Lin Fan with their gifts, so they weren't able to say another word to him, let alone building a closer relationship with them.

All they could do was leave with awkward defeated looks on their faces.

They couldn't help wondering just where they had gone wrong..

But when they thought about it, they realized that there wasn't anything that they could take out that would move the Love Sect.

After all, fine herbs and pills, they were nothing compared to the medicine that the Love Sect had shown today.

Fine wine, could it compare to the wine that they were currently drinking or the food that they were eating?

A handcrafted spiritual sword, this was a sword that was only in the Foundation Realm and Lin Fan was in the Qi Condensation Realm.

Would he ever use something like this?

No!

So it wasn't worth anything in his eyes.

The only comfort that they found was seeing that everyone else was also being rejected just like them. There wasn't a single person whose gift was able to illicit a response from Lin Fan.

It was as if Lin Fan had already seen everything that had been brought forth in front of him.

It was as if there wasn't anything that they could bring out that would move him.

They couldn't help wondering just what kind of things the Love Sect could possess that he would feel this way..

This just made them even more determined to build a relationship with the Love Sect.

Lin Fan had been using his Appraisal Eyes the entire time one these gifts that had been presented to him.

And indeed, he was feeling disappointed.

That was because most of the things that had been brought were things that he had seen before in the Dungeon Master Store. These were all things that he was able to buy from the system and at a higher quality than the ones that were offered to him.

The things that he didn't see..were things that were too low quality that they wouldn't even appear in the store.

So he couldn't help being even more disappointed with these gifts.

These were sects that had existed for hundreds of years with firm foundations, but not a single one of them had anything special that could catch his attention.

It seemed that he had overestimated all of these sects..

That was until he finally found something that caught his attention.

The one who brought it was the sect master of a very small sect called the Long Life Sect.

This was a small sect that had only ever had a Nascent Soul Realm ancestor, so the inheritance that they had wasn't that great.

The current strongest member of this sect was only the Late Qi Condensation sect master that was in front of him now.

This information all came from Yue Lan who had investigated every single sect that had responded to their invitations.

But what Lin Fan was attracted to was the box that was currently in the Long Life Sect sect master's hand.

When he looked at it with the Appraisal Eyes.

Special Box

A box made of unknown material that contains a special item.

It was a very simple description, but there was no need for more when it was this simple.

For the Appraisal Eyes to call it special, it had to be special.

The last thing that he had found that was called special had given him the side mission that led him to the Hidden Dragon Sect.

He couldn't help wondering what kind of special things he would encounter this time.

With a smile, Lin Fan stood up and personally walked forward towards the Long Life Sect's sect master.

The Long Life Sect's sect master was taken aback when he saw this, but then he quickly fell to one knee and presented this box to Lin Fan like a subordinate presenting something to the emperor.

Though if one looked at the difference in power between the Love Sect and the Long Life Sect, that wasn't that inaccurate.

If the Love Sect wanted, they could just send a single elder to crush the Long Life Sect.

The Long Life Sect's sect master was just worried that Lin Fan would be offended by this gift since he couldn't see through his smile.

This box was something that had been in their treasury for a long time and they had never found the use of it. It had only been left there because it was a special item that their ancestor had acquired a long time ago.

They hadn't discarded it because it was left by their ancestor.

However, they had no idea what this thing was and it wasn't doing them any favours to keep this thing.

So instead of having this box take up more space in their treasury, it was better to use it for something else.

It was better for them to use this thing to build a relationship with the Love Sect.

The Long Life Sect's sect master hadn't had much hope for this item in the first place, but he hoped that it would be enough to catch the attention of the Love Sect sect master.

Lin Fan walked forward to take the box before helping the Long Life Sect's sect master up.

With a friendly smile, he said, "This fellow cultivator, there's no need to act so polite. We are all friends here."

When the Long Life Sect's sect master heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.

Just from this, he could tell that Lin Fan appreciated the gift that he had brought and that was exactly what he wanted to see.

With a smile, he said, "This is just a small offering from my Long Life Sect. I hope that the Sect Master Lin will not mind this."

Lin Fan gave a laugh before saying, "This friend is too polite. This thing that you brought is not as simple as it seems."

The Long Life Sect's sect master couldn't help being caught off guard when he heard this.

He also couldn't help taking one last look at the box that was now in Lin Fan's hands as he thought to himself, "Could it be that there really was something special about this box?"

But then he thought to himself, "Even if there is, it isn't as if my Long Life Sect is fated with it. There's no way that we would be able to keep this treasure even if we were to know what this thing was."

So he just happily talked with Lin Fan a bit before heading back to his seat.

Lin Fan looked at the rest that wanted to present their gifts before saying, "Everyone, I have some important business to take care of, so I will be leaving first. I will leave the rest of this banquet to my elders to take care of, so I hope that everyone will enjoy yourselves."

Without waiting for a response, Lin Fan turned to leave this banquet.

It wasn't just the guests that were surprised by this, but also the elders of the Love Sect.

They didn't know what it was that had caused their sect master to leave so suddenly, but they could guess that it was related to the box that he had just received.

Could it be that there was something special about this box?

After this thought passed through their minds, they quickly changed their mentality and covered for him while he went to examine the box. historical

The rest of the guests could only reveal bitter looks when they saw this.

They didn't even get a chance to present their gifts to Lin Fan before he left.

Wasn't this looking down on them and their gifts?

But what could they do?

Lin Fan and the Love Sect were in a much higher position than them, so there was no one that they could really complain to.

They could only blame their luck and their lack of a good gift.

When thinking of a good gift, many people couldn't help turning to look at the Long Life Sect's sect master.

They couldn't help wondering just what that box was that had excited Lin Fan so much..

But most of them thought that there had to be some kind of existing connection between either the Love Sect or Lin Fan and this Long Life Sect that Lin Fan would act this way. After all, it seemed too unlikely that he would be this excited about some random box.

They had already checked the box and confirmed that there was nothing special about it.

So why would Lin Fan be excited about it?

There had to be some kind of special relationship between either the Love Sect or Lin Fan and the Long Life Sect.

As many of them considered this, they thought about befriending the Long Life Sect as well.

Since they couldn't form a direct relationship with Lin Fan, this kind of indirect relationship would also work.

It was like this that the Long Life Sect became popular among the sects of the Mu Empire.

It was like this that the hope of the Long Life Sect's sect master came true.
