In the end, Lin Fan wasn’t able to convince Wang Fu no matter what he said.
He wasn’t surprised that Wang Fu could guess what they were up to since the Star Tower specialized in fortune telling. He just assumed that Wang Fu had guessed what they were up to based on his fortune telling.
However, it didn’t matter what Lin Fan used to try to reason with Wang Fu, it just seemed like Wang Fu wasn’t willing to listen at all.
Wang Fu gave the same excuse each time.
They were here to experience the outside world, so this would be one of their experiences.
In the end, Lin Fan had no choice but to give up since Wang Fu wouldn’t budge.
The one thing that he was surprised about was that the elders actually agreed to taking the Star Tower group with them.
He had thought that they would be against it, but it turned out that this wasn’t the case.
That was because…
“We’ll show them our strength.” Senior Brother Ying simply summarized everything with these words.
It seemed that even if they agreed to work with the Star Tower, they wanted to show off the power of the Love Sect before that.
Since everyone was fine with it, there was nothing that Lin Fan could say and he just agreed with it as well.
…
Three days later, the Love Sect set off for their expedition.
This would be a long day, so they set off early in the morning.
Their destination was the Scarlet Sun Sect, which was one of the four sects that were targeted to be subdued.
The Scarlet Sun Sect wasn’t a powerful sect and it wasn’t a big sect, but they had been slowly gaining more and more disciples as more and more people moved to Dungeon City.
It wasn’t as if everyone could join the Love Sect, so many of the people who migrated here settled for a different sect.
The Scarlet Sun Sect was one of those sects.
But as the Scarlet Sun Sect started to recruit more and more disciples, they also started to become more and more unruly.
In time, they were doing things behind the back of the Mu Empire government which now controlled all of the sects in the Mu Empire. Which was why it was being targeted to be subdued.
Since the Scarlet Sun Sect was taking disciples from Dungeon City, they had actually moved their headquarters closer.
It would have been hard for a sect that had a longer tradition to move, but the Scarlet Sun Sect wasn’t a sect that had a long tradition. The Scarlet Sun Sect was a sect that had only existed for a few generations, so they didn’t have that many things to move.
They were able to easily build a new sect headquarters for themselves and it was even bigger than their sect from before. It really seemed that the Scarlet Sun Sect was doing well for itself with how much wealth it seemed to have.
This wasn’t just the effect from recruiting more disciples and having them perform missions for the sect. This was also the effect of them making deals under the table.
Since they made such a big headquarters for themselves, it was easy for the Love Sect to find them.
But the Love Sect didn’t hide themselves as they headed for the Scarlet Sun Sect.
It was made very clear to everyone that the Love Sect was heading to the Scarlet Sun Sect for a reason.
So before they even arrived at the Scarlet Sun Sect, there was a messenger from the Scarlet Sun Sect that was sent out to see what the Love Sect was planning.
“How could you do this!?” The messenger said in an aggrieved voice as the light drained from his eyes.
“The rest of your sect will either submit or will be following you soon, so you don’t need to feel aggrieved.” Huang Xie said in a calm voice after cutting the messenger down.
The look in the messenger’s eyes became even more aggrieved when he heard this.
How could this make him feel better?
The one thing that he didn’t understand was what their Scarlet Sun Sect had done to offend the Love Sect like this.
He just didn’t understand why the Love Sect was going against his Scarlet Sun Sect like this.
…
“Have you heard anything from the one that we’ve sent?” The sect master of the Scarlet Sun Sect questioned the elders that were gathered in front of him.
All of them had grim looks on their faces as they slowly shook their heads.
Since sending that messenger out, they hadn’t received a single response.
They didn’t need to think to understand what had happened.
That messenger had either betrayed them or they had been captured by the Love Sect.
In that case, it seemed that the Love Sect wasn’t here with good intentions.
It was very likely that there was something that the Love Sect wanted from their Scarlet Sun Sect.
Seeing that no one was saying a thing, the sect master of the Scarlet Sun Sect, “Are all of your brains empty? Give me any idea…”
Before he could finish saying these words, there was a loud explosion that came from outside that attracted all of their attention.
After revealing frowns on their faces, they quickly went to see what was happening.
When they came out of the main halls, they found that it was the gates of their sect that this sound had come from. Or rather, it was better to say that it was from the remains of their sect gates that this sound came from.
The gate had been shattered to pieces, like it had been hit by some kind of explosion.
But that wasn’t the important thing right now.
The important thing was the screams that were coming from all around their sect, as well as the sounds of fighting that rang out.
It was obvious that there was someone attacking their sect.
After taking a moment to collect themselves and scope out the situation, the sect master and the elders of the Scarlet Sun Sect suddenly split up and headed off in different directions.
When they landed, they found themselves facing different scenes happening all around their sect. But there was one thing that all of these scenes shared in common which was that their sect’s disciples were being suppressed by the invader.
It seemed that their sect’s disciples weren’t able to do a single thing against these people that invaded their sects.
However, there was also one thing that came to mind as they watched this happen.
“What are these monsters?”
That was the only thing that the sect master and the elders of the Scarlet Sun Sect could think when they saw these invaders attacking their sect.
“Stop!”
The sect master of the Scarlet Sun Sect was the one that recovered first as he shouted out for the invader in front of him to stop.
His voice was quite loud since he strengthened it with his spiritual energy, so everyone in the Scarlet Sun Sect was able to hear his words.
When they heard this, the elders also did the same thing to support their sect master.
It was just that these invaders completely ignored the sect master and elders of the Scarlet Sun Sect. With the way that they continued attacking, it was like they didn’t even notice their existence at all.
Seeing this, the sect master and the elders had no choice but to attack as well since the invaders were not stopping.
It was just that they weren’t able to do a thing.
All of their attacks were easily dodged by the invaders and the invaders were even able to keep attacking the disciples of the Scarlet Sun Sect.
The sect master had a very grim look on his face as he said, “What is the meaning of this? Why is the Love Sect attacking our Scarlet Sun Sect? We are all sects that are under the Mu Empire, so isn’t this treason against the Mu Empire?”
Only when he said this did the invader in front of him turn to look at him, as if he was finally paying attention to him.
This person was just one of the normal disciples of the Love Sect.
But even then, he said, “Your Scarlet Sun Sect knows what you’ve done. Do you think the Mu Empire wouldn’t know?”
The sect master trembled when he heard this, but he didn’t say anything as he was fully aware of what this disciple was talking about.
Since that was the case, the only thing that he could do was…
“Attack them! Repel the invaders!” The sect master roared out before swinging his sword at the Love Sect disciple in front of him.
But it wasn’t the Love Sect disciple who blocked this attack.
Rather, it was a fist that was covered in a faint green glow that slammed into this sword.
The sound of metal clashing rang out when the fist clashed with the sword.
The Love Sect disciple narrowed his eyes to look at the one that stopped the sword for him before saying, “Junior brother, are you stealing this prey from me?”
Huang Xie who stepped in said with a faint smile, “Senior brother, there’s something strange about his sword. Let me handle this and I’ll give you the sword afterwards.”
The Love Sect disciple didn’t bother arguing with Huang Xie and just gave a simple nod before turning to deal with the other Scarlet Sun Sect disciples.
Huang Xie turned back to the sect master and said, “Shall we?”
