Both the ancestor and the sect master of the Scarlet Sun Sect seemed like they couldn’t understand what they just heard.
Even if they understood the words that were said, it didn’t seem like they could process these words.
The ancestor just looked at Lin Fan in a daze for a while before suddenly asking, “Why? Is there a need for you to kill me when I offer to be a slave? Why do you insist on killing me?”
Lin Fan calmly looked at the ancestor and said, “Are you saying that you’re willing to submit completely in mind and soul? Would you really be willing to give your everything to the Love Sect?”
The ancestor was caught off guard at being asked this, but he had no shame at all as he said, “Of course. I could give everything that I have to the Love Sect as long as you spare my…”
Lin Fan cut him off simply by saying with a smile, “You and I both know that this isn’t true.”
The face of the ancestor twisted when he heard this, but then he said, “I’ll even give you a piece of my soul to show my loyalty to the Love Sect. As long as you spare me, I’ll be the Love Sect’s dog!”
“Even if you are our dog, do you think that you would fall under the Love Sect? You and I both know what kind of person you are.” Lin Fan once again said in a calm voice, but there was a chill that ran down the ancestor’s spine.
He looked up at Lin Fan with a strange look on his face, almost as if he didn’t know how to feel.
But in his heart, the ancestor understood why Lin Fan was acting this way.
If he was in the same position, perhaps he would have thought the same thing as Lin Fan.
Only he wasn’t allowed to think the same thing as Lin Fan in his current position because that would lead to his death. He had to think of a way to change Lin Fan’s mind or else all that would happen is that he would die.
He wouldn’t let that happen!
Even if he gave up everything, he would find a way to survive today.
It wasn’t even a matter of pride or wanting to take revenge, he was just the kind of person that cared about his life the most. That was why he had created this sect to gather resources for him and to increase his cultivation as much as he could.
Of course, he never would have thought that things would end like this.
So for now, the most important thing was to survive.
There was no such thing as pride when it came to surviving.
Gritting his teeth, the ancestor said, “I’ll…”
“No, you won’t.” Lin Fan didn’t even bother letting him say anything this time as he directly cut him off.
Lin Fan knew that there was nothing useful that would be coming out of this mouth, so there was no reason to let him say anything.
Letting him say anything would just be wasting more time, so instead of letting him waste more time, it was better to finish the matters here at the Scarlet Sun Sect and set off.
After all, there were still three other sects that had to be taken care of.
The more time that they wasted at the Scarlet Sun Sect, the more time that those sects would have to prepare.
Even if those other three sects didn’t know that they would be targeted, there was no doubt that they would think of countermeasures after hearing about what happened with the Scarlet Sun Sect.
They had no idea what the Love Sect was planning to do, but it wasn’t as if they would let their guards down.
If the Love Sect could take down the Scarlet Sun Sect, it was very likely that they would also move against other sects in the area.
As such, those sects would prepare themselves which would make them harder to attack.
“You can’t do this! If you kill me and him, what value will such a Scarlet Sun Sect have? The only value that the Scarlet Sun Sect has is its experts and without me or him, you won’t have anything. You’ve even shattered my Scarlet Sun Sword!” The ancestor suddenly changed his tone after hearing what I said.
At this point, he was certain that it didn’t matter what he said anymore.
There was nothing that he could do to convince Lin Fan of his loyalty, so the only thing that he could do was try to put conditions on this matter.
Only his words were true.
Without him or the sect master, it didn’t matter if the Scarlet Sun Sect was subdued, they would be much weaker than before. As such, there would be no value in subduing a Scarlet Sun Sect like this.
It would be like subduing a sick puppy.
However…
“That is for me to decide. You don’t have the right to say anything.” Lin Fan just calmly said as if he didn’t care about this matter at all.
The ancestor’s next words were stuck in his throat as he just couldn’t understand what was happening.
By all rights, what he said should have done was accept the ancestor’s words and turn him into a complete puppet. The ancestor could have accepted this as long as he was alive and there was hope for the future.
But it didn’t sound like he cared about this at all.
It was as if he didn’t see any value in the Scarlet Sun Sect in the first place, which was why he didn’t care.
The ancestor just couldn’t understand why he would view the Scarlet Sun Sect like this.
Even if it was a weak sect, it wasn’t weak enough to completely ignore.
They were strong enough to match any city in the Mu Empire. In fact, they were strong enough to match several cities working together to attack them at the same time.
That was just how many cultivators the Scarlet Sun Sect had.
This was not something that could be viewed lightly.
Only while the ancestor was still confused about why Lin Fan was acting like this, he suddenly felt a sensation of pain coming over him. When he looked down, he found that there was a large gash that had appeared on his chest.
This large gash was bleeding out and it seemed like he wouldn’t survive from this wound.
Only…the ancestor had no idea how he had even suffered this wound.
Before he could even react, he found that there was this large gash that was on his chest.
At the same time, he saw that it wasn’t just him that had this gash.
It was also the sect master that had the same gash across his chest and an equally shocked look on his face.
Neither of them had been able to see the thing that had hit them, which is why they were both shocked by the fact that they had been suddenly wounded like this. They really wanted to know just what they had been hit by.
The ancestor turned back to look at Lin Fan and found that he had a hand up as if he had just slashed out with it. Only he didn’t see any weapon in that raised hand that could have done this.
He just couldn’t understand how he had died like that.
Lin Fan didn’t care about the aggrieved look that was on the ancestor’s face since this wasn’t his concern at all. The only thing that he cared about was that the ancestor and the sect master was dead, after that, it didn’t seem like it was related to him at all.
Senior Brother Ying had someone drag these corpses to the side and then they hung up these corpses for all to see.
During this, there was a Love Sect disciple that led a group of young people over.
This group of young people were disciples from the Scarlet Sun Sect.
All of them seemed afraid as they were being led forward and some of them even seemed like they were about to faint when they saw the two corpses that were hung up.
The ancestor was not someone that these disciples knew, but the sect master was certainly someone that they all knew and feared. As such, there was a large reaction when they saw the sect master’s corpse being hung up like that.
Lin Fan didn’t care as he calmly looked at these disciples, as if he was looking for something from them.
After staring at them for a bit, he suddenly came forward towards one of the disciples. This one didn’t move away like the rest of the Scarlet Sun Sect’s disciples.
After coming up in front of this disciple, he suddenly reached out to place one hand on his shoulder and said, “From now on, you are the new sect master of the Scarlet Sun Sect.”
That was when everyone looked at him with shocked looks.
Even those from the Love Sect couldn’t understand what was happening.
…
“You are the new sect master.”
That was what Lin Fan said at each of the four guilds that were subdued.
Each time, he chose a random disciple of that sect to appoint as the new sect master and then forced the elders to bind themselves to that disciple. Though the fragment of the elders’ souls went to Lin Fan.
This was always after killing the ancestor and the sect master of those sects.
After appointing these sect masters, they all swore their allegiance to the Love Sect.
Like that, they were able to subdue all four of these sects.
