Cultivation Pet Shop

There was only silence in the air with the appearance of this figure.

With the speed this figure had moved at, it was clear to everyone that he was in the Soul Realm.

But before that person could even react, Lin Fan had easily caught him.

Lin Fan turned back to the Platinum Realm Expert and said, "So you were saying?"

The Platinum Realm Expert just looked at Lin Fan in disbelief. He couldn't even say the words that were at the tip of his tongue as he could only stare at Lin Fan in a daze.

That Soul Realm Expert that Lin Fan caught was caught off surprise, but he also immediately recovered and wanted to make a move, but he found that couldn't move a single muscle. All he could do was stare down at Lin Fan in disbelief.

This Soul Realm Expert was only in the low Fragmented Soul Realm, so naturally he wasn't a match for Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was already in the peak Fragmented Soul Realm and with his physique, he could easily take on those in the Embryo Soul Realm. He would even be able to match those in the Child Soul Realm if he went all out.

It was no problem for him to use his life energy to completely trap this Fragmented Soul Realm Expert.

But of course, this was something that no one had expected.

While they knew that Lin Fan was in the Soul Realm, all of them thought that he was just a newly advanced low Fragmented Soul Realm expert at most with his age. They never thought that he would be able to subdue an expert who had been in the Fragmented Soul Realm for a long time with such ease.

For Lin Fan, seeing the appearance of this Fragmented Soul Realm Expert, it made him even more excited.

The appearance of this expert made it very clear, this was not something that was normal if they were willing to send this Fragmented Soul Realm Expert to capture this Gold Realm kid.

It seemed like Lin Fan really had hit the jackpot.

For the Fragmented Soul Realm Expert, there was one thing he couldn't understand.

He had clearly sensed that this kid was only in the low Fragmented Soul Realm just like him and his cultivation wasn't as deep as his, so how could this kid catch him this easily?

What he would never know was that this was done deliberately by Lin Fan.

With his breakthrough in his cultivation technique, his body was much stronger compared to before.

With such a powerful vessel containing his cultivation, there was no leakage at all. Unless Lin Fan decided to release his full aura, others would not be able to see through his cultivation at all.

During this entire time, the cultivation that Lin Fan had been revealing was in the low Fragmented Soul Realm, which was why the Fragmented Soul Realm Expert had been so confident.

It was too bad that Lin Fan was playing the pig to eat the tiger.

When Xu Lin saw this, he immediately knew that this "Senior Lin" was not as simple as he seemed. He had seen through everything and controlled everything in the palm of his hands. Perhaps following him would turn out to be a good choice.

After all, he clearly didn't have fame in the Galactic Humanity Alliance, but he was trying to set up a faction around himself. If Xu Lin could join early, it would mean becoming one of his closest followers.

Of course, the inverse could also happen if Lin Fan wasn't strong enough, but what he had shown was already more than enough to convince Xu Lin.

Xu Lin came forward and kneeled down as he cupped his hands while saying, "Senior Lin, Xu Lin is willing to follow you and trying to convince the Xu Family to follow you."

Then he quickly signaled with his head to the others behind him and they learned quickly as they also kneeled down, pledging the same thing to Lin Fan.

The Platinum Realm Expert saw this and knew that this situation was bad for him, but when he came forward to say something, he never would have expected Lin Fan's next move.

Lin Fan didn't seem to pay any attention to the kids kneeling in front of him as he turned to look at the Platinum Realm Expert.

The Platinum Realm Expert who had been about to say something saw this and thought that this was a good turn for him, but he never expected a piece of stone to fly right through his forehead. It pierced right through his skull and his brain before his body crumpled onto the ground.

For Lin Fan, this Platinum Realm Expert no longer had a role to play, so there was no reason for him to live. After all, he clearly didn't bother hiding his killing intent earlier…

The Fragmented Soul Realm Expert still being held by Lin Fan panicked when he saw this. He hadn't even been able to see the stone fly out, which proved to him that Lin Fan was clearly much more powerful than him.

But before he could say anything as well, Lin Fan tightened his grip around his neck and knocked him out before throwing him over to Momonga. Then he said, "You know what to do."

Momonga took a deep look at Lin Fan before giving a nod.

After the Fragmented Soul Realm Expert was pulled aside by Momonga, Lin Fan finally turned his attention back to the kids still kneeling on the ground.

Looking down at them, he said, "As long as you truthfully tell me what you know, I won't be against taking you in. But you should know what happens if you try to aim your fangs at me. I hope that you won't have any ideas like that."

Ideas about betraying him? How could they have those ideas after seeing everything that had happened?

Seeing that none of them had any thoughts of this, Lin Fan gave a satisfied nod before turning back to Xu Lin to ask, "What is the artifact that your family has?"

Xu Lin no longer hesitated like last time, he had been completely subdued by Lin Fan's power. Xu Lin directly said, "It's not really that high level of an artifact, but it holds quite the symbolic power."

Then after pausing, Xu Lin entered his story, "The artifact that our Xu Family holds is only a Nascent Soul Realm Artifact, but this artifact once belonged to one of the elders of the twelve factions. The elder even declared that any who possesses this artifact would have the right to become the elder's disciple."

Lin Fan fell into thought once he heard this.

It was even more complicated than he had thought.

If it was a simple artifact, he could just take it and destroy the other force, but if it was just a normal artifact that had a different meaning, then it was a different story.

After all, Lin Fan wasn't looking to join any of the twelve factions and getting involved in the fight of this upper realm.

The only reason he wanted to be a part of the Hunters was because of the freedom that the Hunters Organization offered. The Hunters Organization allowed one to leave at any time and they never restricted one's movements. One would forever remain a Hunter once they passed their exam and the only way to lose the qualification to be a hunter was to lose their license.

For the Hunters Organization, the license was everything.

It was even said that a Hunter's license could bring one enough wealth to live several lifetimes if it was sold, it was even enough for an average person to become a Child Soul Realm Expert or even a Nascent Soul Realm Expert.

It could be seen just how expensive and important a license was.

But of course, no one would give it up since the benefits of a license were worth much more than what one could gain from selling it.

Since that was the case, there was no need for Lin Fan to personally take the artifact, but he could help raise someone who would help him control one of the twelve great factions from the inside.

Xu Lin was definitely the best choice since this artifact belonged to his family and he was someone with decent talent.

He was a Gold Realm Expert that could control a Platinum Realm pet, that kind of talent wasn't that common. It meant that he already had a certain amount of control over laws even in the Gold Realm.

As long as he reached the Platinum Realm, he would definitely be much stronger than all his companions in the same realm.

After Xu Lin explained what the artifact was, he continued, "Because of this artifact, their One Shadow Organization targeted our Xu Family for the artifact. To get it, the leader of the One Shadow Organization even went as far as poisoning my father, which is why I'm here. As long as I'm able to find the Cloud Lingzhi in this Green Mist Forest, I will be able to cure him."

He didn't say anything else, but with his pleading look, it was clear what he was asking of Lin Fan.

But Lin Fan didn't promise him anything as he continued in his thoughts.

After a while, Lin Fan finally came out of his thoughts and turned to Xu Lin to ask, "Xu Lin, how would you like to become the disciple of an elder of one of the twelve great factions?"
