Since this matter had been settled, Lin Fan didn’t stay here any longer.
He called for Xiao Ming and the other Love Sect disciples to follow him and they immediately followed him out of that place.
As they walked over, they received many strange looks from the crowd that was watching.
However, not a single person in the crowd dared to look down on them.
They even moved out of the way to let them pass as they saw Lin Fan’s group walking closer to them.
Lin Fan didn’t care at all, but he was surprised to see that Xiao Ming and the others also didn’t care.
It seemed that a small part of him did rub off on his disciple of his and that rubbed off on the others.
They didn’t stay in this gathering area any longer and went back to their own residence.
Once they were back, Lin Fan dismissed the disciples and allowed them to do what they wanted.
He didn’t punish them for the commotion that they caused since he knew that it wasn’t their fault that it had happened. Though he could see that some of the disciples looked like they had been waiting for him to punish them.
After they were dismissed, they all went off to do their own things.
Lin Fan watched as Huang Xie went over to Yu Huang and said, “Come with me, we need to talk.”
Yu Huang narrowed his eyes to look at Huang Xie before slowly giving a nod and following him.
With the look that was on their faces, it seemed like they wanted to discuss something serious.
When she saw the two of them acting this way, Xiao Ming couldn’t help feeling worried and even looked like she wanted to follow them. However, before she could go after them, Lin Fan reached his hand out to grab her shoulder to stop her.
Xiao Ming looked at Lin Fan with a surprised look before saying in a soft voice, “Master…”
It was almost as if she was asking him to stop them for her.
But Lin Fan shook his head and said, “Sometimes, men have things that they need to talk about. You shouldn’t get in the way of that.”
Xiao Ming revealed a confused look as she said, “I don’t understand.”
Lin Fan just gave a chuckle as he said, “It seems that our Xiao Ming is still young. You’ll understand when you grow older.”
Xiao Ming’s cheeks puffed up when she heard this and she turned her head away with a snort, as if she was angry at being called young like this. But she listened to him in the end and didn’t follow the two of them.
Lin Fan just revealed a smile when he saw all of this.
He couldn’t help feeling that the story between these three kids was quite funny and interesting.
Especially since he knew that Huang Xie was the Heaven’s Chosen.
He was wondering if Yu Huang would be his rival or if he would be a villain character.
If he could choose, he would have preferred if Yu Huang became a rival to Huang Xie that would also be a close friend of his since Yu Huang was the son of a Mu Empire general. If they could remain friends and not escalate this, then it would be less troublesome for him.
As Lin Fan was lost in thought over this, he found that the other elders and the generals had come back.
They were looking at him with grim looks, as if there was something that they wanted to discuss with him.
Lin Fan revealed a faint smile before giving a nod and waving at them to follow him into the main hall of the residence.
Xiao Ming wanted to follow, but Lin Fan just shook his head and sent her off before walking in.
Once they were all seated, Senior Brother Ying asked, “Sect master, what happened?”
With the way that they were all looking at him, it was clear that they had heard about the incident and were now questioning him about it.
But it didn’t seem to affect Lin Fan at all as he casually sat back in the chair and said, “Well, they were bullying our people, so I bullied them back a bit.”
Bitter looks appeared on the faces of all the elders and generals when they heard this.
Senior Brother Ying looked at Lin Fan with a bitter smile before saying, “Even so, was there a need to go that far?”
Lin Fan revealed a serious look and said, “Of course there is. You should know that I have my own reasons for doing this.”
All of the elders and generals revealed surprised looks when they heard this since they didn’t expect this. They had thought that with Lin Fan’s temper…he was just doing this because he wanted to take revenge for the disciples.
But now he was saying that he had actually had a reason for doing this.
Lin Fan revealed a faint smile when he saw this before saying, “The reason that I did this was…”
The expressions on the faces of the elders and generals all changed when they heard this.
It went from confusion to surprise to a look of understanding.
By the end, it seemed like they understood why he had done all of this.
When it was over, Senior Brother Ying asked Lin Fan, “What do we do now?”
Lin Fan just said with a smile, “If my guesses are correct, they’ll show their cards tomorrow. We’ll have all of our answers tomorrow.”
…
The next morning, the rumours came in.
“They really did it, didn’t they…” Lin Fan couldn’t help saying to himself when he heard the rumours.
The Martial Might Sect had really kept their promise and had destroyed the Flowing Water Sect.
It was something that had shocked everyone, but not a single person had gotten involved in this matter since it was the Martial Might Sect.
The Martial Might Sect’s position in the Wu Empire could be clearly seen with this one matter.
But there was another piece of news that was spread along with this.
“It seems that they really won’t let themselves suffer no matter what happens.”
After the Martial Might Sect destroyed the Flowing Water Sect, all of the remaining members of the Flowing Water Sect had been absorbed into the Martial Might Sect.
At the same time, the treasures that had been in the Flowing Water Sect had all been taken and brought to the Martial Might Sect.
It could be said that they had earned quite a bit from accepting all these new members and all these new treasures. In the future, the Martial Might Sect would only be stronger and not weaker because of this.
There were even rumours that the sect master had been absorbed into the Martial Might Sect, but was only given a temporary position as the head of one of their branches. Once this tournament was over, it was said that he would be allowed back to take a position as one of the elders of the Martial Might Sect.
When the Love Sect elders and the Mu Empire generals gathered again, the first thing that was said was, “It seems like they’re just trying to make fools out of us.”
The other all nodded in agreement to this.
However, Lin Fan said, “We already knew this, didn’t we?”
Once again, everyone nodded in agreement to this, but the looks on their faces were much more grim than before.
Lin Fan didn’t mind this as he continued to say, “For now, we know that this is just how it is. There’s no need to think too much about it.” Then after a pause, the tone of his voice changed as he said, “What we should be doing is thinking about the future.”
Everyone was surprised to hear this from him, but they quickly nodded in agreement.
After all, the most important thing was that they were still in the enemy’s territory.
If they didn’t decide how they would act from now on, there was no knowing how they would suffer at the hands of the enemy.
Lin Fan saw the look on everyone’s face and said, “For now, how about we…”
The looks on everyone’s face slowly changed as they listened to what Lin Fan had to say.
When it was over, they all revealed complicated looks.
Senior Brother Ying was the one that asked, “Sect master, are you sure that this will work?”
Lin Fan just gave a calm nod and said, “I’m sure that it will. Just trust me and I’ll make sure that it’ll work.”
There were some uneasy looks on the faces of the elders, but they still nodded in agreement to his plan.
It wasn’t that they were convinced by his words, but rather because there was no other option. Even if they wanted to say something, it wasn’t as if there was anyone who had a better plan than this.
So they could only just accept this.
When it was over, they came out to find that Elder Qian was there waiting for them.
Elder Qian came over to where Lin Fan was and said, “Sect Master Lin, how are you today?”
Lin Fan was surprised to see that Elder Qian was here, but he still said with a smile, “Elder Qian, what are you doing here today? Is there something that you need?”
Elder Qian said with a nod, “Actually, I came here to invite your disciples to another gathering.”
