The elders from the Flowing Water Sect were completely shocked to see this.
They had no idea what was happening, especially since they could see that Elder Yue was serious about this.
It was clear that Elder Yue was actually angered by this and seemed like he was about to take action against them.
But why would Elder Yue do something like this?
After all, their Flowing Water Sect and the Martial Might Sect had always been close.
It could even be said that they were sects that were like brother sects since the Flowing Water Sect and the Martial Might Sect always held exchanges with each other.
The Flowing Water Sect had even depended on this relationship with the Martial Might Sect to increase their own position among the other sects.
If they were to suddenly lose this relationship…
The elder who had spoken before saying, “Elder Yue, what are you talking about? We’re not the ones that are acting wild, it’s this unknown kid who’s acting wild. Please stop joking around and uphold justice for us.”
Elder Yue narrowed his eyes to look at these elders from the Flowing Water Sect.
As he did, there was a strange look that appeared in his eyes.
This was a look that almost made him seem like he was disappointed in these elders.
That was because he was.
He had already made it very clear that Lin Fan didn’t have a normal status and he was even trying to give them a chance out as long as they apologized, but it seemed like they were too dumb to realize this.
If they didn’t realize this, then there was no need for him to keep helping them.
If they didn’t take the cup that he offered them, then he had no choice but to cut them off.
Elder Yue said in a cold voice, “Do you really think that our Martial Might Sect is blind? I already know exactly what happened and you’re still trying to make excuses?”
The elders of the Flowing Water Sect couldn’t help being taken aback when they heard this.
They looked at each other in blank dismay before the elder who spoke before said, “Elder Yue, our two sects have been friends for a long time. Are you sure that you want to do this?”
Elder Yue gave a snort before pointing at Lin Fan to say, “Do you know who this person is?”
The elders of the Flowing Water Sect were all confused when they heard this before slowly shaking their heads.
If they knew who this person was, would they be making all this fuss?
If they knew who this person was, then they would have already found a way to take care of him already.
But it was because they didn’t know who this person was that they were having this much trouble in the first place.
Seeing their response, Elder Yue said, “This one is the sect master of the Love Sect, Lin Fan.”
“Love Sect?” The elders of the Flowing Water Sect repeated this together as they revealed confused looks.
The others that were watching also had confused looks on their faces as they didn’t recognize this name either.
It was only after a while that one person suddenly said, “The Love Sect from the Mu Empire?”
When this was said, there were some people that had looks of recognition appear on their faces. It seemed that these people had heard the news of the Mu Empire’s change and the Love Sect’s role in it.
So they recognized the name of the Love Sect unlike the others.
But the elders of the Flowing Water Sect still had confused looks on their faces as they didn’t recognize this name.
After a while, the Flowing Water Sect elder said, “Elder Yue, does this matter?”
Elder Yue gave a cold laugh before saying, “You must not know the deep relationship between our Martial Might Sect and the Love Sect. This is a relationship that has existed for many generations and is a bond that is deeper than the sea.”
It wasn’t just the Flowing Water Sect, all of the others watching were shocked to hear this.
Elder Yue then didn’t hesitate to declare, “If you wish to harm the members of the Love Sect, you have to ask our Martial Might Sect first.”
The Flowing Water Sect elders really didn’t know what to say at this point.
The Flowing Water Sect was only a second rate sect in the Wu Empire, they couldn’t compare to the Martial Might Sect no matter how one looked at it.
If the Martial Might Sect really were to do anything to the Flowing Water Sect because of this, they wouldn’t be able to retaliate.
So the only thing that the Flowing Water Sect elders could do right now was…
“Sect Master Lin, please allow me to apologize for the rudeness that we have demonstrated previously. If you are willing to forgive us, then we will be more than happy to compensate you.”
The Flowing Water Sect elder said this to Lin Fan.
It seemed that he really didn’t have any shame at all.
One moment, he had been threatening Lin Fan and the next, he was apologizing without any hesitation.
But looking at it from another perspective, one could say that this elder was quite smart.
It was clear that the situation was bad for their Flowing Water Sect and if he didn’t apologize, it was very likely that they would have been destroyed by the Martial Might Sect with how aggressive Elder Yue was being.
Elder Yue wasn’t listening to him, so the only thing that he could do was talk to Lin Fan who Elder Yue seemed to care very much about.
As long as Lin Fan was willing to drop this matter, then Elder Yue would be willing to drop this matter.
But would Lin Fan drop this matter?
No, even if Lin Fan wasn’t willing, he would use the crowd and money as a way to force him to drop this matter.
Lin Fan wouldn’t be able to be too aggressive with everyone watching since he was from an unknown sect. At the same time, the Flowing Water Sect elder was certain that he would be able to offer enough to make Lin Fan drop this matter.
But to his surprise, Lin Fan said, “Didn’t I say that there’s no need for the Flowing Water Sect to exist anymore?”
All of the elders of the Flowing Water Sect were shocked to hear this.
They just looked at Lin Fan with these shocked looks before turning to see what Elder Yue thought about this.
They found that Elder Yue had a calm look on his face, almost as if he was accepting this conclusion which just shocked them even more. They never thought that Elder Yue would be willing to cut off all ties with them for this unknown sect.
The elders of the Flowing Water Sect all had looks of indignation on their faces, but they didn’t back down as the elder representing them said, “I never thought that the Martial Might Sect that represented our Wu Empire would bend their knee to other sects. It seems that my eyes have been opened today.”
He no longer spoke in a respectful voice when addressing the Martial Might Sect.
After all, the Martial Might Sect was already condemning them to death.
So the only thing that they could do was try what they could to survive.
They were planning on using the public opinion to force the Martial Might Sect into not being able to go through with this.
But they found that this just had the opposite effect.
Elder Yue just gave a snort before saying, “You’re the ones that caused this mess in the first place and you have the audacity to speak as if you’re the one being wronged.”
Elder Yue then turned to Lin Fan to say in an apologetic voice, “Sect Master Lin, I must apologize for today. I never thought that a sect that our Martial Might Sect associated with would be of such low quality. I will find a way to make it up to Sect Master Lin.”
Lin Fan had remained silent the entire time since he had wanted to see how Elder Yue would react and he had to admit that he was surprised by this reaction.
Still, he calmly said, “Then shall we go with what I had been planning to do in the first place?”
Elder Yue hesitated for a second, but he gave a nod of agreement in the end.
Elder Yue turned to look at the elders of the Flowing Water Sect and they felt a chill run down their spine.
“You can’t do this to us, we were invited as guests.”
They tried to say in an attempt to defend themselves, but there was no stopping it.
Lin Fan raised his hand and said, “Elder Yue, let me take care of this. They offended the members of my sect, so I should take care of them.”
Elder Yue looked at Lin Fan before giving a silent nod.
Receiving this approval, Lin Fan raised his hand again and there was a layer of ice and snow that appeared around the elders of the Flowing Water Sect.
They still tried to complain about this, but their complaints fell onto deaf ears as no one seemed willing to help them.
In the end, they were completely frozen in a block of ice before that block of ice was shattered.
Lin Fan gave a nod to Xiao Ming’s group before turning to look at Elder Yue.
Xiao Ming’s group understood and started heading towards the young masters.
Lin Fan just said to Elder Yue, “I’ll leave the matter of the Flowing Water Sect to your Martial Might Sect.”
Elder Yue simply gave another silent nod of agreement.
