Three days later!

After Ye Qingxuan finished his day's cultivation, he left his courtyard and walked towards the central square of the Fu Xiu Institute.

The Fu Xiu Institute was actually not very large, covering an area of only a mere thousand square kilometers.

Having stayed in the Fu Xiu Institute for so long, it was Ye Qingxuan's first time observing the internal environment of the Fu Xiu Institute up close.

Previously, Ye Qingxuan would always fly on his Flying Sword, and what he saw was the Fu Xiu Institute from a high-altitude, bird's-eye view.

After walking for a long time, Ye Qingxuan found that most of the Fu Xiu Institute consisted of courtyards of the same size, and the ornamental Spiritual Plants outside the courtyards held no attraction for him.

Looking at these, he might as well find a random mountain peak in the Xuantian Mountain Range; most of the mountain peaks within the Xuantian Mountain Range were exquisitely beautiful and filled with countless wondrous flora and fauna.

Thus, Ye Qingxuan gave up on the idea of walking and directly summoned his Flying Sword, riding it towards the central square of the Fu Xiu Institute.

After arriving near the Fu Xiu Institute's square, Ye Qingxuan finally gave up on riding his Flying Sword and walked into the square.

When Ye Qingxuan arrived at the square, quite a number of people had already gathered.

There were a total of one hundred Disciples from the Fu Xiu Institute who had joined the Xuantian Sect in Ye Qingxuan's batch.

And now, within the entire Fu Xiu Institute, apart from the managers, there were only these one hundred Fu Xiu Institute Disciples.

As for the previous batch of Disciples, they had all successively achieved Refining Qi Complete in the past few years, left the Fu Xiu Institute's Spiritual Land, and become true Blessed Cultivators.

When Ye Qingxuan entered the venue, it only caught the attention of a few people on the periphery; as they were not acquainted, those few did not come forward to disturb Ye Qingxuan.

He also preferred peace and quiet, so he directly found a secluded seat on the periphery.

At this time, the seats were already filled with various Spiritual Fruits and wine.

After scanning the area, Ye Qingxuan clicked his tongue and secretly thought:

"What a grand gesture! This banquet must cost a lot of Spirit Stones, right?"

Looking at the Spiritual Fruits and wine on the table, Ye Qingxuan did not hold back and began to eat the Spiritual Fruits and drink the wine on his own.

Before long, all the seats in the venue were filled.

Beside Ye Qingxuan, there was also a Xiao Pangzi with a blessed appearance.

After the Xiao Pangzi took his seat, he directly picked up a Spiritual Fruit and took a big bite, then looked at Ye Qingxuan with a cheerful smile and said:

"Brother, my name is Fu Dingtian, how should I address you? Are you also a Fu Xiu Institute Disciple? How come I've never seen you before?"

Hearing the Xiao Pangzi's address, Ye Qingxuan gave him a strange look and said indifferently:

"My name is Ye Qingxuan, a Fu Xiu Institute Disciple."

"Ye Qingxuan? Wait a moment, let me check!"

After saying that, the Xiao Pangzi took out his Disciple token and, after a thorough check, exclaimed loudly:

"Wow, Brother, you're really good at hiding! I actually don't have your contact imprint!"

Ye Qingxuan's forehead was covered in black lines!

Was it not normal for him not to have his contact imprint? They didn't know each other.

But the Xiao Pangzi didn't stop and continued to speak:

"I knew it! There were clearly one hundred people who came in together, but I only collected ninety-eight contact imprints! I even thought it was haunted!"

The Xiao Pangzi ignored Ye Qingxuan's gradually darkening expression and leaned closer to Ye Qingxuan on his own:

"Brother, I'm just missing you to collect all one hundred imprints from our batch. Let's be friends and exchange contact imprints, okay?"

"We're not familiar, I won't exchange!"

Facing the Xiao Pangzi's request, Ye Qingxuan directly refused.

But the Xiao Pangzi did not give up and shamelessly said:

"Don't be like that! Brother, we'll get to know each other! Meeting is fate, you can't be so heartless!"

Ye Qingxuan originally wanted to continue refusing, but feeling the gazes attracted by the Xiao Pangzi's voice, Ye Qingxuan could only grit his teeth and say:

"Alright!"

Fortunately, after he exchanged contact imprints with the Xiao Pangzi, the Xiao Pangzi happily returned to his seat and did not continue to pester him.

Ye Qingxuan secretly let out a sigh of relief.

He finally understood how this Xiao Pangzi managed to get everyone's contact imprints; he couldn't hit him, and the Xiao Pangzi was thick-skinned, so if he insisted, everyone could only give in.

Anyway, it was just an imprint, with no loss, so it wasn't worth getting entangled with the Xiao Pangzi.

After this unexpected interlude, the banquet hosted by Lin Fan officially began.

Lin Fan was seen holding a wine cup, and after a round of conversation with his few close friends around him, he stood up spiritedly and said:

"Senior Brothers, I am deeply grateful that you have given Lin Fan Face by attending this banquet!"

After speaking, he drank the wine in his hand.

And many Fu Xiu Institute Disciples in the venue who were on good terms with Lin Fan responded in agreement, raising their cups and drinking together.

Ye Qingxuan had no reaction to this, merely watching everything in the venue calmly.

On the other hand, the Xiao Pangzi next to him was excitedly making a fuss, not knowing what there was to be excited about.

After Lin Fan finished that cup of wine, he continued to speak:

"The purpose of inviting all Senior Brothers this time is, firstly, to gather with all Senior Brothers before my departure, and secondly, to discuss something, which I hope all Senior Brothers can agree to!"

As soon as Lin Fan's words fell, many people in the inner area spoke up in agreement, expressing support for Lin Fan:

"Master Brother Lin, just tell us what it is? We will definitely help if we can!"

"That's right! Master Brother Lin, don't be polite with us, just speak directly!"

"I have been friends with Brother Lin for many years; Brother Lin's matter is my matter. Brother Lin, don't hesitate, just speak directly, everyone will agree."

Those people in the inner area, one after another, almost directly agreed on behalf of everyone present.

But many people on the periphery, including Ye Qingxuan, merely watched all this with cold eyes, and many even showed a hint of a sneer!

"Indeed, there's no good banquet!"

Ye Qingxuan secretly thought to himself, beginning to eat the fruits and watch this good show with interest!

After receiving numerous affirmative responses from his many friends, Lin Fan shouted loudly:

"Good! Since that's the case, I'll speak frankly then!"

"We are all Senior Brothers who entered the Fu Xiu Institute together. The purpose of gathering everyone here this time is to hope that everyone can form a Blessed Cultivator Alliance, so that we can look out for each other in the future. What do you all think?"

Hearing Lin Fan's words, someone in the venue immediately asked:

"Master Brother Lin, how will this Alliance be formed?"

"That's right! Master Brother Lin, what do we need to do after joining the Alliance?"

Facing their questions, Lin Fan slightly raised a hand and smiled:

"Don't rush, everyone. Let me first introduce two good friends!"

After speaking, he pointed to two people not far from his side and said:

"These two are Senior Brother Li Xuan and Senior Brother Zhu Dafu. They are Senior Brothers who entered the Xuantian Sect in the same batch as us. Although they are not Fu Xiu Institute Disciples, they are now Outer Sect Disciples of the Xuantian Sect's Foundation Establishment Realm."

Li Xuan and Zhu Dafu stepped forward, not interrupting Lin Fan, but merely smiling at everyone in the venue.

After a pause, Lin Fan continued:

"After we form the Alliance, everyone's future Spiritual Land output can be uniformly handed over to Senior Brother Li Xuan and Senior Brother Zhu Dafu for processing."

"Of course, everyone can rest assured that the Alliance will purchase the resources produced within everyone's Spiritual Land at market price."

"Moreover, after everyone joins the Alliance, any materials that need to be purchased can be uniformly reported to the Alliance, and Senior Brother Li Xuan and Senior Brother Zhu Dafu will arrange for people to purchase them for us!"
