Chu Ting was even more confused, but then she revealed an expression of understanding.

That was right, they didn\'t know each other. Even if the other side had saved her for an unknown reason, that didn\'t mean they would keep working with her.

Since they were competitors for this inheritance trial, naturally they wouldn\'t let her continue in it. But there was nothing she could do or say since the other side had already been kind enough to save her life.

Moreover, it was clear that they were much stronger than her and if she kept pushing the limits, she might not be able to get out of here alive…

Chu Ting seemed like she wanted to say something, but then she swallowed her words as she gave a sigh.

Chu Ting pulled out a token from her Space Ring and threw it over to Lin Fan who skillfully caught it. On the surface of the token was a carved snowflake, which was the symbol of the Chu Stellar Kingdom\'s royal family.

Lin Fan was confused by this, but he understood when he heard what Chu Ting said.

Chu Ting said with a serious look on her face, "If you ever need anything, you can come and find me in the Chu Stellar Kingdom with that token. I promise that I will do my best to help you to repay you for saving me."

On the surface it seemed like she was just repaying them for saving her life, but it was clear that there was another meaning to this action.

She naturally knew how powerful Momonga and Angela were, as well as guessing that Lin Fan was on the same level since he could even command them. Since that was the case, if she were to lure them to the Chu Stellar Kingdom and make people think that they were friends with her, it would definitely raise her status.

Or at least that was the reasoning that Lin Fan and Momonga thought that Chu Ting was using.

In truth, after Chu Ting had handed over the token, she had secretly taken a look at Lin Fan\'s face before the slightest blush appeared on her face. She had thought that no one had seen this, but it was actually seen by Angela who was usually not the sharpest person.

However, it seemed like Angela\'s womanly senses were very sharp and she had noticed this small detail that everyone else had missed.

Of course, there was nothing she could do since nothing had happened yet and acting on it would actually be worse than doing nothing, so she didn\'t say a word in the end. However, she did make a mental note of this and she was planning on getting a little payback from Lin Fan later on.

Since she had finished everything she wanted to do, naturally it was time for Chu Ting to leave, but before she did, she suddenly remembered something.

Chu Ting suddenly turned and said, "Before I go, I have to tell you that my fourth brother\'s forces are surrounding this planet. He said that it was just in case I ever needed backup, but it\'s clear that they\'re here for another reason. They won\'t dare do anything to me outside of this secret inheritance realm, so there\'s nothing for me to worry about, but they will naturally know that you were the ones who interfered with their plans when they see you leave the planet. You should be careful when you leave."

Lin Fan\'s group all looked at each other with smiles on their faces when they heard this. They naturally didn\'t need to worry about this since they didn\'t exactly come to this planet the conventional way, so naturally they wouldn\'t be caught by forces that were only surrounding the planet.

But still, for her to tell them about this, it was enough for her to show her sincerity.

Lin Fan just nodded at this and said, "It\'s fine, we have our own way of dealing with this. You don\'t need to worry about us."

Chu Ting slightly knit her brows when she heard this, but there was nothing she could say in response. In the end, she just gave a nod before heading out of the tower and leaving the inheritance realm.

But after leaving the tower, Chu Ting couldn\'t help taking one look back and giving a sad look with a sigh. However, after she left the realm, she went out with a determined look on her face.

Since her fourth brother wanted her dead, there was nothing she could do except do her best to live. Not to mention that he had killed the one that was like a father to her, there was no way she would be as naive as before.

Once she was gone, Lin Fan turned back to Momonga and asked, "What did you leave out for her?"

Momonga looked at Angela first before looking at him with a complicated look in his eyes, "Why are you asking this?"

Lin Fan of course couldn\'t explain the impulse that he felt to Momonga, he himself didn\'t even know why he felt this kind of thing.

In the end, Lin Fan gave a sigh and said, "I feel pity for her, isn\'t that enough?"

Momonga paused and took another look at Angela before saying, "It isn\'t just the fourth prince who is targeting her, it\'s the fourth prince working with the fifth and sixth prince. They are all princes without much chance of succeeding the throne, so they are working together to defeat their older brothers. But now that the seventh princess is on the rise, they wanted to stop her before she could gain any momentum and pose any threat to them."

Lin Fan was silent for a few seconds as he looked at the token Chu Ting had given him and then he said, "But at least we have this token from the royal family, right? That is considered a gain."

Momonga shook his head at this and said, "No, rather it\'s unlikely we\'ll ever be able to use this token."

Lin Fan looked at him with a confused look, "What do you mean? Isn\'t this the token of the royal family?"

Momonga came over and pointed at a flower that was underneath the snowflake before saying, "That is the sign of the seventh princess, which means that this is her personal token, not just the token of the royal family. How likely do you think it\'ll be that she will be able to survive until the time comes for you to use this token with three of her older brothers aiming for her life?"

Lin Fan didn\'t give up as he said, "But there\'s still a chance isn\'t there? As long as she does survive, wouldn\'t that mean that we would be able to use this?"

Momonga shook his head, "You can want to believe that she will survive, but we both know how unlikely that is. It is better not to hold onto empty hopes. Rather if we were to show it after she was dead, it might even harm us since they will want to tie up any loose ends, so they will target us as soon as we reveal this token."

Lin Fan then said, "But do you really need to be afraid of them?"

Momonga said with a sigh, "Any trouble that can be avoided is best avoided. There\'s no reason to cause more trouble for yourselves if you can avoid it."

Lin Fan didn\'t know how to respond to this since he knew that Momonga was correct.

That strange impulse deep down made him feel pity for Chu Ting, but right now there was nothing he could do. He couldn\'t just have Momonga and Angela solve everything. Not to mention whether they would be willing to do this for him or not, there was nothing to gain from this.

The only thing Lin Fan could do now was slowly build his power and not meddle in these higher realm politics. When he was strong enough, then perhaps he would be able to do something.

With renewed energy, Lin Fan headed up to the second floor without another word and began cultivating as he made his way up.

Without saying a thing, Momonga and Angela also made their way up, not feeling the pressure at all.

For Momonga and Angela, the pressure that was coming from above was below their realm, so naturally they couldn\'t feel a single thing from it. It was like walking normally for them, so they could have made their way to the top and finished the trial at any time. However, the only reason that they were here was to accompany Lin Fan. While they were curious what the rewards of the trial would be and Momonga wanted to meet the other fragment of Leo\'s soul, in the end they were just accompanying Lin Fan.

Lin Fan slowly cultivated the same way as before, using his suction force to drain the pressure around him, allowing him to slowly make his way up. But with this new determination that he had, it didn\'t take him long to break through to the next floors.

It took him an hour for the second floor, half an hour for the third floor, fifteen minutes for the fourth floor, ten minutes for the fifth floor, five minutes for the sixth floor, three minutes for the seventh floor, two minutes for the eighth floor, and only a single minute for the ninth floor.

While the pressure was strongest on the ninth floor, he had already completely absorbed the law that was coming from the top, allowing him to easily manipulate the power of the law around him. He walked right through it all like a fish swimming in water, easily reaching the tenth floor.

When he reached the top of the tower, all of the pressure on him seemed to have suddenly disappeared.
