Chapter 2172


    Regardless, the Eleventh Elder was not at a loss and Fane was the only one who would suffer.


    Fane glowered at the elder, though not as intensely, but his response was curt as he spoke, "You


    truly are amazing at calcting such matters, Elder Godfrey. Compared to you, my schemes seem


    to be nothing important."


    Elder Godfrey naturally understood Fane''s hidden sarcasm. He put down the teacup in his hand


    and looked up at Fane. "You don''t need to be so angry. We’re fated, and I have to thank you for


    rescuing me out of Mount Beasts. I owe you for your kindness, and I naturally won’t ignore you


    when you''re in trouble. It was indeed rash of me to suddenly announce this back then, but I won’t


    abandon you even if you''re unable to defeat any of those three disciples.”


    The elder''s words might have seemed pleasant, but Fane was not a three-year-old child. He


    chuckled and spoke softly, "You have to understand that I''ll face the danger of failing once I get onto


    the battle stage. You announced me as yourst disciple previously, and they''ll naturally target me.


    If they attack me fatally, I may lose my hands or legs by then."


    Elder Godfrey said, "I know that you aren''t an ordinary person, and you won’t put yourself in such


    danger. If you truly feel that your strength is iparable to


    them, you won''t join them on the battle tform. I know this clearly."


    Fane snorted and did not respond. He only turned to one side and looked at the dense trees


    surrounding them.


    Elder Godfrey was not displeased because of Fane''s attitude. He ignored Fane and continued


    speaking," Right now, you are already myst disciple. To put things simply, we are on the same


    boat. Don’t let these grievances affect our rtionship."


    Fane’s mouth twitched as he itched to say something terrible. However, he also understood that


    what Elder Godfrey said was true, and the two of them were in the same boat. It was best for them


    to not speak so harshly and cause their rtionship to be in a deadlock as he would also suffer


    because of that. He had no choice but to nod. "You''re right. However, you''ve refuted the First and


    Second Elder by doing this. Aren’t you afraid that the two of them will cause you trouble in the


    future? Even a newly recruited informal disciple who doesn’t care about the world also knows that


    the biggest issue in the pavilion right now is the battle for the position of pavilion master. No matter


    who will be the pavilion master in the future, it''ll be a battle between the First and Second


    Elder. It''s unwise of you to offend the two of them at once."


    Fane did not purposely say this to disgust Elder Godfrey. Instead, he felt that Elder Godfrey had


    completely offended those two elders by doing what he did. Both the elders were not people that


    could be easily dealt with, especially the Second Elder. He was a gloomy, extremely shrewd person.


    Once he had his eyes fixated on a person, that person''s life would not be easy in the future.

    Elder Godfrey chuckled and replied nonchntly, "We have many days ahead, and even if the


    pavilion master wishes to abdicate his position, it''ll take him two to three years to do so. Who will


    know how the situation is in two or three years? On top of that, will they let go of me easily even if I


    didn''t offend them? The others might not know this, but you know what I went through before. I was


    framed by others, and I found out that those two elders made a pact together to lure me into Mount


    Beasts after I did my investigation."


    Fane''s expression stiffened when he heard this. He had never imagined that this was the case. He


    naturally understood that Elder Godfrey was framed by others to appear at Mount Beasts at that


    time.
