Cultivation Pet Shop

After putting this matter aside, the representatives suddenly brought up another matter.

Old man Qiao took the lead for them and came up to Lin Fan to show him a piece of paper.

Lin Fan was confused by this piece of paper at first, but when he saw what was written on it, he couldn\'t help being surprised.

It was an invitation from the Thunder Sect, the True Spirit Sect, and the Assassins Association to the Hunters Organization.

For them to send something like this at this time, it was clear that they had finished making their preparations and were about to make their move.

But to just send an invitation to the Hunters Organization?

What was the meaning of that?

That question however was quickly answered as the representatives all showed the invitations that they had received.

It wasn\'t just the Hunters Organization, every single one of the other twelve great factions had received the same invitation from the Thunder Sect, the True Spirit Sect, and the Assassins Association.

This was a very simple invitation that just had a time and place on it, inviting them to some kind of event. As for what the event was, there were no indications at all.

No matter how one looked at it, this invitation was very sketchy, but this was an invitation from the Thunder Sect, the True Spirit Sect, and the Assassin Association, so it couldn\'t be ignored.

The main reason that they were showing this to Lin Fan was not because they wanted his help with this, but rather they wanted to see the stance of the master behind him.

Since the Thunder Sect, the True Spirit Sect, and Assassins Association were finally making a move, for them to counter that, they had to rely on Lin Fan\'s master. After all, there was Bing Jun and the red haired young man of unknown origin behind these three factions.

They didn\'t know what these two were capable of or how strong the organization behind them was, so they needed some kind of backing of their own.

This backing was the master of this store that they chose to cooperate with before.

Lin Fan just knitted his brows as he stared at this invitation, trying to figure out just what the other side was planning. However, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn\'t understand why they would do something like this.

He had thought that their goal was to take over this Galactic Humanity Alliance, so they would eventually have to fight the other nine of the twelve great factions to make them submit under them. If they wanted to do that, they would try to at least have the element of surprise to make it easier for themselves.

But now they\'ve ruined that by inviting the other nine of the twelve great factions, which would just put them on alert.

So why would they do this?

Unless there was something that Lin Fan didn\'t know about that was influencing their decision…

But that wasn\'t something that he could think about since if he didn\'t know it, he didn\'t know it.

While everyone was pondering this, there was a knock that came from the door of the shop.

Everyone turned to see a very normal person standing there, but this was a person that most of them were unfamiliar with.

This person just ignored all of them and walked over to Lin Fan who he recognized with a single look. As soon as he was in front of Lin Fan, he took out a piece of paper that he handed to him.

Without explaining a thing, this person just said, "We hope to hear a favourable response from you."

Then without a word, he walked out of the store without giving anyone a chance to say anything.

Everyone was surprised by this person\'s sudden appearance and sudden departure, so much so that they weren\'t even able to react until he had been long gone.

Everyone immediately turned their attention to the piece of paper that this person gave Lin Fan and they found that it was an invitation that was similar to the ones that they received as an organization, but this one was addressed to Lin Fan as an individual.

It seemed like they were putting Lin Fan at the same level as their organizations after what had happened at the True Spirit Sect last time.

But what Lin Fan really cared about was that beside his name, there was also Lin Xue\'s name.

This was clearly the work of Bing Jun. It seemed that he still wasn\'t willing to give up on Lin Xue…

However, at the same time, all of this just confused him even more since he didn\'t understand what this meant.

The fact that Bing Jun was willing to invite Lin Xue just meant that this event was safe enough that he was willing to let her go. But if this was a safe event, then it was clear that they weren\'t planning on starting a fight.

So just what was their end goal here?

Or was he just confident that he would be able to protect her?

Every single move that Bing Jun made confused Lin Fan more and more, but he decided to stop thinking about it. There was no need for him to waste his brain power on thinking about what Bing Jun was planning.

After all, he didn\'t plan on letting Lin Xue go in the first place.

This was clearly a trap no matter how he looked at it, so he wasn\'t planning on putting her in any danger.

She would just wait in the store, the safest place that one could be in this turbulent Galactic Humanity Alliance.

As for himself, he had no choice but to go since he couldn\'t avoid this.

All these signs made it clear that no matter what happened, Bing Jun didn\'t plan on letting Lin Xue go. So unless he took care of Bing Jun, there was no chance that his family would ever find peace.

Let alone the fact that it was unlikely the Thunder Sect, True Spirit Sect, and Assassins Association would ever make peace with him.

He had fully committed himself to one side and the only thing that he could do now was see things through to the end.

So he gathered the attention of everyone around him and asked, "What are you all planning on doing?"

The representatives looked at each other before old man Qiao said, "We were planning on going to this meeting that the three of them had set up, but we\'re also planning on hiding our experts just in case anything happened. However…" As his voice trailed off, he looked at the door leading to the back of the store before looking back at Lin Fan.

The way he left his words unfinished made it clear what his intentions were.

Lin Fan looked at the other representatives and saw that they were all acting the same way.

Since that was the case, then he would play along with them.

With a cough, Lin Fan said, "My master won\'t make a move directly, but he\'ll provide help in different ways." Then after a pause, he added, "Let me go talk to him and see what ways he\'ll be providing you support."

The other representatives all looked at each other before revealing excited looks and giving gestures for Lin Fan to go.

Lin Fan headed into the back and then just stood there as he started counting the minutes.

After all, there was no master in this store.

The master that they were looking for help from was nothing more than a lie from Lin Fan that had been made true with the help of the system. But since this was what they were willing to believe, Lin Fan didn\'t mind making use of this.

As long as they were willing to fight in the end, Lin Fan didn\'t care what method he used.

So he just stood there for around five minutes before heading back to the front. When he came in front of the representatives, he said, "My master said that he would be providing some items that will help protect you, but beyond that, he won\'t be able to do anything else."

The representatives revealed excited looks again.

Just the fact that Lin Fan\'s master was willing to provide any help at all was already a great boost to their morale.

They already knew that there was no choice other than fighting for them, so they had already braced themselves for a hard fight. But if an expert that could give a hundred Nascent Soul Realm beasts to his disciple to control like it was nothing was willing to help, they wouldn\'t turn it down.

They were certain that while these items were small things for the expert, they would definitely be powerful items in their hands.

As long as they had these items, they would be much more confident in the upcoming fight.

Then Lin Fan added, "He\'ll be giving you the items over the next few days, so you leave someone here to take them when they\'re ready."

The representatives looked at each other again before quickly saying, "No problem, no problem at all." After that, they started praising Lin Fan\'s "master" and making all kinds of promises.

But Lin Fan had another goal in having them leave someone.

He didn\'t want something like He Wuji\'s attack to happen again, so he was getting these factions to leave someone here.

Since it was an important mission, they would certainly leave someone in the Nascent Soul Realm, which would be a very large protective shield for the shop.

Since they were on the same boat, he didn\'t mind using them for his own benefits.
