Chapter 900: And Just Like That, the Favorability Went Up

"Stop right there! Are you crazy? Do I even know you? You just swing your staff at me without a word."

Lin Fan climbed out of the deep pit, and seeing the domineering monkey about to strike again, he roared.

Who had he offended? He was just peacefully traveling through the void.

Then Lin Fan suddenly remembered someone—wasn't this the Great Sage Equal to Heaven he had seen before?

Looking around at his surroundings, Lin Fan felt he must have arrived in the territory of the Monkey Clan.

Around him, many monkey clan beings were staring at Lin Fan.

Though monkey clan beings were not too different from humans, their bodies were covered in a layer of yellow fur.

"Daring to intrude into the monkey clan camp, who are you?" After the Great Sage Equal to Heaven revived, he had returned to the monkey clan camp.

To the monkey clan beings, seeing such a powerful monkey clan member filled them with shock.

"Human, are you the Great Sage Equal to Heaven?" Lin Fan asked.

"Old Sun is indeed the Great Sage Equal to Heaven." The iron staff in the Great Sage's hand radiated divine charm, his battle intent soaring to the heavens—nothing ordinary.

Lin Fan noticed that the Great Sage's strength was not weak, but judging by his demeanor, he bore no grudge against him, which relieved Lin Fan.

"Great Sage Equal to Heaven, I'm just passing through. I have no intention of harming the monkey clan," Lin Fan said.

The Great Sage Equal to Heaven looked at Lin Fan. "Your strength is decent. Then fight me."

"What?"

Suddenly, Lin Fan was stunned. Fight your sister! I'm just passing through—is this necessary?

But at that moment, the Great Sage raised his staff and smashed it toward Lin Fan. The strike was formidable, as if it could shatter everything.

Bang!

Lin Fan blocked instantly, his hands stinging from the impact. Fortunately, his strength had increased, or he might have been crushed by this guy.

"Use words, not fists! A guest arrives, and this is how your monkey clan treats people?" Lin Fan shouted. This was utterly unreasonable.

"Refreshing!"

The Great Sage Equal to Heaven let out a wild roar, ignoring Lin Fan's complaints, and attacked again.

"Damn!"

Lin Fan felt this monkey was too domineering, simply going too far.

At that moment, Lin Fan and the Great Sage Equal to Heaven clashed. But Lin Fan sensed that the Great Sage seemed to be holding back, not using his full power; otherwise, with his own cultivation, he wouldn't have lasted this long.

"Refreshing! This is the first time I've felt so invigorated since awakening."

"Haha!"

After who knows how long, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven stopped. "Human, you're not bad."

Lin Fan's limbs were a bit numb, but nothing serious.

"Thanks for the compliment."

But Lin Fan could tell that this Great Sage Equal to Heaven wasn't as violent as the Buddha and his kind; he had some sense of justice.

"I've seen humans before, but humans as strong as you are rare," said the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

Lin Fan smiled. The implication was that humans had no strong fighters, but that was the truth—what could he do?

"That fight just now was just to savor the joy of battle. Since you're passing through, why not rest a while? I'll have my clansmen prepare a feast for you," said the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

His monkey clan lived apart from the world. There were many strong members, including some who sought conquest, but after his arrival, he had directly wiped out those warmongers.

The monkey clan had no need to contend with the myriad races; they only needed to guard this pure land.

"Then many thanks," Lin Fan said. Meeting such a friendly monkey clan was unexpected, so he decided to stay.

But when he saw the food the monkey clan had prepared...

Lin Fan found it a bit odd. Did monkeys now prefer meat? The entire table was covered in meat.

At the banquet, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven sat at the head, while beside him were some monkey clan elders. They held a favorable view of humans.

The main reason was that humans had never killed any monkey clan members.

But Lin Fan knew that was because humans had always been confined to the Xuanhuang Realm and couldn't reach the Ancient Saint Realm.

At that moment, the monkey clan elders were very warm toward Lin Fan, and he responded with a smile.

"Great Sage, do you usually eat this?" Lin Fan asked.

This world was in crisis, and knowing more strong people was beneficial.

If he had known some strong people earlier, when that bald donkey brought his men to besiege him, he wouldn't have had to fight so desperately.

"Yes. Is the food not to your taste?" The Great Sage looked at Lin Fan with confusion. These were top-tier ingredients, the most delicious parts of high-level ancient beasts.

"No, it's not that. Don't you usually eat bananas?" Lin Fan asked.

"Bananas? What are bananas?" The Great Sage was stunned, and the surrounding monkey clan elders were also puzzled. They had no idea what he was talking about.

They usually didn't fight with others, so they lived leisurely and were quite particular about food.

As for what this human mentioned, they had never even heard of it, let alone seen it.

"Damn, being a monkey and not knowing bananas—and peaches, of course, even less. Looks like I'll have to rely on these to build a good relationship."

Then Lin Fan smiled and said, "I happen to have some delicacies here. Let me share them with everyone."

Lin Fan entered Earth and directly took a large basket of bananas and peaches.

"What are these?" The Great Sage looked at them, puzzled.

The surrounding monkey clan members also showed confusion. They had truly never seen such things.

"Everyone, give them a try," Lin Fan said.

Lin Fan picked up a banana, demonstrated by peeling it, and then ate it.

Then the monkey clan members imitated Lin Fan.

When they took their first bite, their expressions suddenly turned strange.

"What is this? Though it has no spiritual energy, the taste seems tailor-made for us!"

One monkey clan member shouted after the first bite, his face full of excitement, as if he had tasted something extraordinary.

The Great Sage also tried it, and once he did, he couldn't stop. His expression was unusually rich, and he became utterly captivated.

"Lin Fan, what is this?" The Great Sage grabbed a peach and asked.

Lin Fan smiled calmly and said, "Great Sage, this is a peach. It's very delicious."

"Peach!"

The Great Sage looked at the object in his hand, his heart suddenly surging with excitement.

This was far tastier than those chunks of meat.

"Everyone, don't rush. There's plenty more, and they can even be planted here," Lin Fan said.

"What? They can be planted?" The Great Sage was startled, his expression suddenly excited.

Though he had lived through countless eons, each eon he had been like a bystander, never contending with any race. After repeated awakenings, he had long grown accustomed to a peaceful life.

Now, especially, the peaches and bananas had completely captivated the Great Sage.

Lin Fan smiled calmly. With a flick of his finger, the seeds of peaches and bananas instantly spread throughout the monkey clan camp.

Primordial earth and primordial water immediately activated.

The seeds sprouted, and in an instant, they fully bloomed.

Seeing this, the monkey clan beings became excited.

To them, what this human had brought was simply wonderful.

"Ding, monkey clan favorability increased. Friendship across generations."

Hearing the system prompt, Lin Fan laughed inwardly. He hadn't expected it to be so easy to raise the monkey clan's favorability.
