Martial Universe: Invincible through lottery, with godlike comprehension from the start.

Suddenly, a surprised voice rang out from behind Ling Qingzhu.

Lin Fan shifted his gaze slightly, looking towards the location from which the sound came.

There, he saw a familiar girl's figure, Su Rou, whom Lin Fan had saved during the Hundred Dynasties War.

The girl was dressed in a light blue dress, with a beautiful face, and the timidity she once had was gone from her cheeks.

At this moment, a smile of surprise and excitement appeared on the girl's face as she waved her little hand toward Lin Fan.

Looking at the overjoyed Su Rou, Lin Fan smiled slightly.

Su Rou's actions were obviously noticed by the Dao Sect disciples beside Lin Fan. They were stunned for a moment, and then looked at the man with admiration. How come this guy knows beautiful women everywhere he goes?

"You have a really wide circle of friends," Ying Xiaoxiao couldn't help but shake her head, then glanced at Ying Huanhuan beside her.

Ying Huanhuan was chatting with Qingye beside her, as if she hadn't noticed anything at all.

However, the observant Ying Xiaoxiao could still notice that her occasional glances into the distance clearly indicated that she wasn't completely indifferent to the matter.

"I met these friends during the Hundred Dynasties War," Lin Fan explained with a smile, then glanced at Ying Huanhuan beside him, feeling slightly helpless.

After seeing Ling Qingzhu that day, Ying Huanhuan ignored him. Lin Fan roughly understood her feelings and felt a little guilty, but for the time being, there didn't seem to be any good solutions.

At the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace, Ling Qingzhu was slightly taken aback by Su Rou's behavior and asked softly, "You know him?"

"Yes, back during the Hundred Dynasties War, if it weren't for Brother Lin Fan, my brother and I would never have made it to Hundred Dynasties Mountain," Su Rou nodded and smiled.

"Brother Lin Fan is amazing. Despite coming from a low-level dynasty, he became the champion of the Hundred Dynasties War."

"When the Western Xuan Region finally tried to seize the ancient space, it was Brother Lin Fan who turned the tide, rescued several seniors from the eight major sects, and ultimately forced them to retreat."

Su Rou's face was full of admiration, which made some of the male disciples around her a little jealous.

Ling Qingzhu nodded slightly, her eyelashes trembling as she slowly suppressed the subtle ripples that flashed across her clear eyes.

That guy's experiences over the years have certainly been quite remarkable...

"The people from Yuanmen have arrived..."

Lin Fan nodded to Su Rou, gradually turning his gaze away, then looked at another part of the sky, his eyes flashing slightly, and said.

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, all the Dao Sect disciples' expressions darkened slightly, and they looked up and locked onto the sky.

Swish!

A sharp whooshing sound rang out as hundreds of disciples of the Yuan Sect, led by the three young kings of the Yuan Sect, broke through the wind and arrived!

Hundreds of Yuanmen disciples formed a neat square formation in mid-air. Powerful energy surged from their bodies and converged, causing a low rumble of thunder to echo in the sky.

At the forefront of the Yuan Sect disciples, three figures stood upright.

Of the three, Lin Fan had already met Little Thunder King Lei Qian, so he looked at the two people next to him.

To Lei Qian's left was a handsome man in white, holding a folding fan. As he fanned himself slightly, he appeared quite elegant.

“He is the Little Spirit King Lingzhen…” Ying Xiaoxiao stared at the white-robed man with a slightly solemn expression and said softly.

"However, among the three young kings of the Yuan Sect, the most powerful is the young king, Yuan Cang."

Ying Xiaoxiao's eyes were somewhat complicated, and when she said the name, her voice was even slightly hoarse, which showed how much pressure that name brought her.

Lin Fan nodded slightly and looked at the man in blue standing between Lei Qian and Ling Zhen, who was smiling.

When those prodigies from various sects saw Yuan Cang, their expressions became somewhat unnatural, and a look of wariness flashed in their eyes, clearly indicating that they were extremely wary of him.

Under the gazes of countless eyes, Yuan Cang, dressed in blue, turned his head and turned his gaze toward the location of the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace, or more precisely, onto Ling Qingzhu, who was standing on a blue lotus.

"Hehe, it seems Qingzhu is indeed leading the team for the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace this time. If we run into each other in the Otherworldly Demon Realm, I hope you will go easy on me."

Yuan Cang looked at Ling Qingzhu, whose face, though not particularly handsome, was extremely pleasing to the eye, and a smile appeared on his face. He chuckled gently.

"Senior Brother Yuan Cang is joking. Qingzhu doesn't have that kind of ability," Ling Qingzhu said softly, her long eyebrows slightly lowered.

As soon as she finished speaking, Ling Qingzhu glanced subtly into the distance, in the direction where Lin Fan was.

"Qingzhu is being modest. If you were to go all out, even I might not be able to defeat you easily."

Yuan Cang smiled and then slightly withdrew his gaze, turning his head to look in the direction of the Dao Sect disciples.

The moment Yuan Cang looked over, Lin Fan could feel that all the Dao Sect disciples behind him tensed up.

Even Ying Xiaoxiao and Wang Yan couldn't help but feel their internal energy circulating more rapidly.

“Ying Xiaoxiao, Wang Yan…hehe, they’re all acquaintances,” Yuan Cang said, looking at Ying Xiaoxiao and the others.

Immediately, Yuan Cang's gaze shifted slightly, finally settling on Lin Fan, his narrow eyes narrowing slightly.

"I had already heard that the champion of this year's Hundred Dynasties Battle rejected the Yuan Sect's invitation and joined the Dao Sect instead."

Yuan Cang smiled, then paused for a moment before continuing, "It's better this way; better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a snake."

Yuan Cang's laughter caused many Daoist disciples to glare angrily.

Does this mean that Lin Fan can only be a leader in the Dao Sect, but can only be ranked last in the Yuan Sect?

This guy may seem gentle, but his words are like a needle hidden in cotton, piercing to the bone.

The clamor that had filled the air subsided slightly at that moment.

All the people from various sects watched this scene. Everyone present was well aware of the deep-seated grudges between the Dao Sect and the Yuan Sect.

Unexpectedly, the two sides sparked such intense rivalry upon meeting, but judging from the current situation, Dao Sect is clearly no match for Yuan Sect.

At the Taiqing Palace in the Nine Heavens, Ling Qingzhu frowned slightly and glanced at Su Rou beside her. The latter's small face was also full of worry.

"A promising start but a disappointing finish; words alone don't count," Lin Fan shook his head slightly and chuckled.

"The three young kings of Yuanmen have quite a reputation, but their strength is rather lacking. Not long ago, I beat that little Thunder King to a pulp."

"Oh, right, there was that battle back then. My Dao Sect's Senior Zhou Tong fought three against one, killing some of your Yuan Sect's three little kings, wounding others, and forcing some to flee. Tsk tsk, what a miserable sight..."

After saying that, Lin Fan shrugged, showing a deeply sympathetic expression.

Lin Fan's words immediately caused an uproar in the sky.

Many people were surprised, clearly not expecting Lin Fan to dare to contradict Yuan Cang.

"Damn it, you only ambushed me that day. How dare you compare yourself to Zhou Tong?" Lei Qian's face turned ashen as he spoke angrily.

“Even Zhou Tong will eventually be killed by my Yuan Sect,” said Lingzhen, the little spirit king holding a folding fan, with a smile.

"The Yuan Sect leader was actually able to kill a Dao Sect disciple. The Yuan Sect is indeed powerful," Lin Fan said disdainfully, curling his lip.

Upon hearing this, both Lingzhen and Lei Qian frowned, their smiles becoming somewhat unnatural.

Back then, Zhou Tong was indeed just a disciple, but he forced the Yuan Sect leader to personally take action to kill him. This incident later attracted some sneers and damaged the Yuan Sect's reputation.

It's a real worry for the disciples of the Yuan Sect.

Just as Lei Qian's face darkened and he was about to say something, Yuan Cang in front of him waved his hand slightly.

Those narrow eyes stared at Lin Fan with a hint of a smile, but there was a chilling coldness in that smile.

"It seems that all these years, I still haven't dealt with your Dao Sect disciples enough..."

Yuan Cang smiled, then shook his head. His gaze, sharp as a venomous snake, slowly swept over everyone in the Dao Sect, and he said softly:

"In that case... you'd better pray for yourselves in this sect competition."

His voice didn't contain any overly explicit threats, but the ill intent in it was clear to everyone.

"This same sentiment applies to the Yuan Sect!"

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze calmly sweeping over the Yuan Sect disciples, a hint of killing intent surging within him, causing many of the Yuan Sect disciples to feel a chill in their hearts!

“You have guts, I like that. I will say this to you again when the time comes, and I hope it won’t be the last thing you hear before you die.”

Yuan Cang smiled faintly, then slowly withdrew his gaze, interlacing his fingers in front of him.

Seeing this, Lin Fan calmly withdrew his gaze.

"The Otherworldly Realm is about to open..."

After a while, Ying Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke up to remind her.

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan looked up and saw that visible ripples were beginning to appear on the spatial barrier in the distance.

This is a sign that the Otherworldly Realm is about to open.

……

As the Otherworldly Demon Realm was about to open, three streaks of light flashed across the sky thousands of miles away, moving as fast as lightning.

"Junior sister, don't worry too much, we can make it to the sect competition."

Of the three streaks of light, the one at the back paused for a moment, then said with a hint of helplessness.

In the instant the light and shadow paused, half of a ghost mask could be seen on its face, making it look eerie.

"How can you be so slow? If you don't want to go, then don't come with us. Huo'er and I will go."

However, the two beams of light in front of it did not stop, and one of them emitted a crisp sound.

Immediately, its speed suddenly increased, and it hurtled towards the horizon.

Seeing this, the masked man couldn't help but smile bitterly, shake his head, and quickly followed. In the distance, he could vaguely hear the voices of two people talking.

"Junior Sister, are you going to find someone? Who is it? Is it... important?"

"Hmm, but you'll find out who it is once you find him... Sigh, but I'll probably get scolded when I find him, so be careful then, or I'll tell Master you didn't protect him properly when we get back."

"Hehe, I know, Sister Qingtan is going to find Brother Lin Fan and the others."

"Lin Fan? That name sounds familiar..."

……

On the vast, dark plain, the distorted space suddenly rippled like waves, and a terrifying fluctuation emanated from the distorted space.

And the crowds on the plains became restless again because of this change.

All eyes were fixed intently on the distorted space.

Those familiar with this scene know that it is a sign of the opening of the Otherworldly Realm.
