Chapter 293: Chapter 273 The Three Grand Vows of Qian and Mai_1

Zhang Qianmo heard the words and chuckled, “It’s just a nightmare, Junior Brother need not take it seriously.”

However, looking into the fervent gaze of Li Fan, Zhang Qianmo pondered for a moment and said, “As for the aspiration of my life…”

“I don’t mean to hide it from Junior Brother. Ever since I joined the Violet Firmament Sect and embarked on the path of cultivation, I have always had three grand ambitions.”

“But I’ve kept them deep in my heart, never mentioning them to anyone.”

“Now that Junior Brother insists on asking, sharing them with you wouldn’t hurt.”

“Think of it as a jest, take it not to heart!”

Zhang Qianmo’s expression turned solemn, and he slowly stated, “I have three wishes.”

“First, demons wreak havoc, and living beings suffer. I wish to eradicate all the demons from this world, restoring a resplendent cosmos.”

“Second, the Ten Great Immortal Sects are withering with age, their might unmatched by virtue, no longer able to command respect. I wish to establish the Violet Firmament Sect in their place.”

“Third, the various sects cherish their own brooms as if they were treasures. The world possesses countless techniques, yet they are hoarded selfishly. An ordinary cultivator, even if pursuing a prized technique of a single sect all their life, cannot come to know them all, let alone the numerous other techniques across the world.”

“Life has its limits, but techniques are boundless. How regrettable! While techniques can be cultivated shared, not one sect is willing to share their techniques with everyone.”

“Narrow-minded, short-sighted! If I were to rule the world, I would certainly collect all techniques and make them public.”

“Everyone could then select the most suitable techniques for cultivation, and in no time, the prosperous age of ancient Immortal cultivation would be restored.”

With statements that would shock anyone to death, Zhang Qianmo revealed his three life ambitions in one breath.

Each more terrifying than the last.

Li Fan, upon hearing this, also couldn’t help but fall into a deep silence.

After a long while, he couldn’t help but let out a breath and said, “Brother, your aspirations are grand indeed, I admire you!”

Zhang Qianmo, upon hearing this, burst into hearty laughter, “They are just whimsical thoughts arising from witnessing injustice along my path of cultivation! Junior Brother should take it as a jest, not to be taken seriously!”

“Let’s be off!”

With that, he quickened his pace toward Ningyuan City.

Li Fan followed closely behind, thinking to himself, “I can only pray that this place isn’t sustained by Brother Zhang’s obsessions. My brother is truly no ordinary man. His wishes are bordering on the fanciful.”

“Who knows what his true ending was in history.”

The two of them journeyed on without words, and in silence, they soon reached Ningyuan City.

Masquerading their presence and assuming the guise of mortals.

The two brothers swaggered through the city gates into the city.

“Junior Brother, let’s split up and see if there’s anything amiss in this city,” Zhang Qianmo transmitted.

“Brother, you’re not intending to find your old flame Chi Xia, are you?” Li Fan bluntly exposed his intentions.

Zhang Qianmo turned somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this.

Just as he was about to explain, he heard Li Fan suddenly say, “If my spiritual sense is not wrong, the danger in this city is aimed at the two of us.”

“Therefore, it’s likely that an ambush has already been set up around Miss Chi Xia.”

“If Brother rashly meets with her, you might be walking right into their trap.”

“Brother, with your formidable cultivator’s strength, you naturally fear no one. But what I fear is that Miss Chi Xia may be caught in the crossfire and meet her demise.”

Realizing the sensibility in those words, Zhang Qianmo reflected for a moment and transmitted, “Junior Brother’s thoughts are more prudent. As such, let us both investigate all the informants within the city. After we’ve gathered information, we’ll plan our next steps.”

Li Fan nodded in agreement.

Zhang Qianmo’s figure slowly vanished into the crowd.

Likely knowing clear as day about the ambush set up within Ningyuan City, Li Fan saw no need for tiresome reconnaissance.

The reason he guided Zhang Qianmo to act this way was to delay the outbreak of battle.

Before that, he intended to take another look at Ningyuan City.

To find the true protagonist.

By now, Li Fan had been reincarnated in Ningyuan City of the Fallen Immortal Realm more than ten times.

Despite some reluctance to believe it, Li Fan understood very clearly, through the words just shared by Zhang Qianmo, that he might always have been mistaken.

Someone else was meant to be the main character of this stage play, not Zhang Qianmo.

For Brother Zhang’s obsession was too great,

And the stage of Ningyuan City too small.

The mere event of “obtaining the Longevity Fruit and being ambushed” did not match Brother Zhang’s grandiose visions.

“So, who then is the true master of this slice of time and lingering memory?”

Li Fan surveyed the bustling mortals within Ningyuan City.

“Could it be among these people?”

With this question in mind, Li Fan began to wander around Ningyuan City.

This was a bustling and vibrant city.

The mortals lived here contentedly, completely unaware of the impending disaster about to befall them.

Following the crowded flow of people, Li Fan arrived at a street called “Yongqing Street.”

Various stalls lined the roadside, where many excited mortals were playing around.

Wandering among them, Li Fan felt as though he had returned to Da Xuan.

That long-lost mortal world.

Suddenly, Li Fan’s pace slowed slightly.

His spiritual sense scanned the surroundings, and a barely noticeable smile crept onto his lips.

Then, he deliberately walked towards a dead-end alley not far away.

Behind him, several skinny figures hurriedly followed.

When they reached the depths of the alley, they were startled to find that the person they were following had disappeared.

Just as they considered retreating, they discovered a figure blocking the exit.

It was Li Fan.

Li Fan looked at the five individuals who had been following him and cocked his head.

Five mortals.

All of them children, frail and thin. 𝔣𝔯𝖊𝔢𝖜𝔢𝔟𝖓𝖔𝔳𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝖔𝔪

The oldest looked to be only about six or seven years old, skinny and seemingly unable to withstand a gust of wind.

“What are you kids doing following me?” Li Fan asked, somewhat amused.

The five children, caught red-handed, looked somewhat nervous.

But to Li Fan’s question, not a single one answered; they just stared at him intently.

Li Fan was about to speak again when suddenly one of them shouted, “Doggy!”

At the same time, the fierce barking of a dog erupted fiercely behind Li Fan.

The vicious dog was upon him in a flash, about to pounce on Li Fan.

Li Fan intended to kill it with a squeeze, but upon seeing the “vicious dog’s” appearance, he couldn’t help but pause.

With a bit of force, he grabbed it.

Despite its ferocious growling, he held it up close to examine carefully.

Indeed, its limbs were a dog’s…

But its torso and head were human.

“What is this?”

“A demonic beast?” Li Fan’s eyes flashed with an indescribable light.

Spiritual energy surged from within his body and circulated inside it.

The growling sound gradually subsided, and it fell into a deep sleep.

“Doggy!”

The five children behind him thought Doggy was dead, each letting out cries of utter despair.

Despite the vast difference in strength, they all simultaneously lunged at Li Fan.

With a gentle sweep from Li Fan, they all fell to the ground.

“It’s not dead now,” Li Fan said calmly.

“If you want to save its life, then answer a few of my questions,” he continued.

The children looked at each other and hesitantly nodded in agreement.

“This dog…”

Li Fan paused, then corrected himself.

“This child, what’s going on here?” he asked.

Indeed, upon examination, Li Fan realized that the creature with the body of a human and the paws of a dog was not some demonic beast.

It was human.

Only, it had been “grafted” with the limbs of a dog.
