Chapter 216: The Merger of Sects! The Lanyue Sect's weapon-making branch - Huode Peak is established~!
This is not right!
If we keep talking like this, we're going to be convinced by ourselves!
The five great elders looked at each other in amazement, feeling more and more that something was not right.
Mainly...
This stuff sounds really wrong!
No, you have to tell me the shortcomings! Tell me the disadvantages!
Why do you keep talking about the benefits?!
But goose.
Their words greatly inspired contemporary elders such as Jin Zhen!
Jin Zhen patted his chest and said, "If that's the case, I can do that, too. For example, if I encounter customers or business that I don't want to take on in the future, right?"
"In the past, perhaps due to certain relationships, we couldn't refuse and could only accept it reluctantly. But if we merge into the Lanyue Sect, we can use the Lanyue Sect as a shield!"
"Just say that the master won't let us take it~"
"If it really doesn't work, just say we are busy making various magic weapons for the disciples in the sect, Bukong will do!"
This benefit made the elders' eyes light up.
It really hits the nail on the head!
Doing business, refining equipment...
After all, it is also a service industry.
Working in the service industry is bound to cause you to get upset and encounter those unreasonable and weird customers, especially those second-generation immortals. It's simply unbearable!
They had suffered a lot in the past, but Huode Zong did not dare to offend them at will, so they could only put on a bitter smile.
But if it is merged into the Lanyue Sect~
Add to that the benefits listed by the previous supreme elders, hiss!!!
now.
Several elders stared at Huo Kunlun with burning eyes.
If they were not worried about being attacked by several supreme elders, they would almost have been unable to resist asking for surrender.
Sovereign~
Let's vote~!
"What nonsense! What nonsense!"
The Grand Elder was shaking with anger: "Anyway, I won't agree!"
"There has to be something bad going on!"
"How can there be only benefits?!"
"Yes, there are disadvantages too!"
Huo Kunlun nodded, he remained calm.
Or rather, he had already thought it through before this.
But even he didn't expect that after all the cursing and talking about these supreme elders, in the end, they only talked about good things and didn't mention any bad things at all!
"Of course!"
The second elder of the Supreme Sect glared and said, "For example, the Lanyue Sect is only a third-rate sect, and our Huode Sect is at least the top of the second-rate. If the top of the second-rate is merged into the third-rate... how can we save our face?"
"We cultivators cultivate our dignity and our breath."
"How can you do such a shameless thing?"
Huo Kunlun replied without thinking: "Third-rate is just an appearance. As for our Huo De Sect, which is the top second-rate, we know how much water there is in it."
"Besides, the battle with the Sun Moon Immortal Dynasty has spread. After this, who would dare to regard the Moon Lan Sect as a third-rate sect?"
“It’s just first-rate!”
"It's not surprising that the second-rate merges into the first-rate."
"This?!" The second supreme elder was choked and didn't know how to refute for a moment.
"Well, let me tell you."
Huo Kunlun shook his head: "You have almost mentioned the advantages. As for the disadvantages, there is one more, the most important one is sovereignty."
"After being incorporated into the Lanyue Sect, you will be restricted by others. From now on, you must respect the Lanyue Sect and follow their orders."
"This is the biggest 'disadvantage'. Well, I can't really say it's a disadvantage, it should be said that it's the biggest loss."
"But even if we have sovereignty, can we do whatever we want? Aren't there also many restrictions?"
"It's just that the constraints are different. The difference is not necessarily that big, right?"
"Instead of being restricted and bullied by clients and outsiders, it is better to find a backer while strengthening yourself, eat their medicine, learn their invincibility methods, and borrow their power..."
"You've got all the benefits, and all we have to pay is a little reputation and some worthless things!"
"In this situation, if I don't lose something, I feel like I'm not a human being."
Huo Kunlun made his point clear.
Just want the benefits without paying any price?
Where in the world can such a good thing come from!
"Besides, don't make any noise."
"The resources of the Lanyue Sect didn't come from nowhere. Even if we want to merge into the Lanyue Sect, it's still unknown whether they will accept us."
"Whether you like us or not is up to you, why are you complaining about this and that?"
"What qualifications do you have?"
The elders remained silent and all quietly.
There's nothing wrong with the sect leader~!
The leader is not a traitor!
What the Sect Master said is right!
The great elders pointed at Huo Kunlun and trembled, but for a long time, they could not say a word. In the end, they could only shake their hands and leave: "Alas!"
"Forget it, forget it!"
"What an unfilial son and grandson!"
"I am old and can no longer make decisions. These younger generations are really..."
"You guys make the decision on this matter. I won't be in charge of it anymore!"
"hateful!"
They left.
Obviously, although they were cursing, they had actually tacitly agreed.
only···
Is it that simple?
Huo Kunlun blinked, a little confused.
Is that it?
However, I have prepared at least tens of thousands of words of speech to convince you!
It's just the beginning, and you agree?
Then all my preparations were in vain?
Also, Grand Elder, when you walked away just now, what was that smile on your face? !
Blanch?
Huo Kunlun suddenly reacted.
Could it be...
These old guys have had this idea for a long time, but they are just too embarrassed to bring it up, right?
Then, I brought it up, and they even took the opportunity to scold me?
This is fucking true!!!
Huo Kunlun couldn't help but frown.
I always feel like I've been betrayed by my own people!
The key is still your elders.
More importantly, after being pointed at and scolded by them, they still have to rack their brains to find a way to make Huode Sect truly integrate into Lanyue Sect and become its part...
So, damn it, all bad things happen to me, right?
You are all so righteous and you can curse and feel good about it.
What about yourself?
Even if you get scolded and blamed, you still have to do your job.
So angry!
and···
It's so dark!
Sure enough, is Jiang still the same as the old one?
Huo Kunlun was muttering to himself.
But Jin Zhen and other elders stared at each other with wide eyes and muttered, "What does this elder mean by this?"
"I don't know!"
"It should be the default, right?"
"It's just their attitude..."
Huo Kunlun was speechless and powerless.
Don't you understand this? Still acting cute here?! Don't you understand?!
But then he reacted.
These guys are all old foxes and have become shrewd already. How could they not understand?
In other words, they didn't understand at all! They clearly understood it better than anyone else, and they really understood it. The reason they were talking nonsense and pretending here was to urge me to go and discuss it with Brother Lin Fan in various ways!
How outrageous!
It's simply...
How outrageous!
“That’s enough!”
"Let me discuss this with Sect Leader Lin first. It's still unclear whether he is willing to take on this trouble from us."
"snort!"
Huo Kunlun also walked away in anger.
Jin Zhen, Ma Canlan and other elders all smiled.
"I hope Sect Master Lin agrees."
"From now on, we are the Lanyue Sect."
"Hey!"
"If you don't agree, let's think of a way to see if there is anything good that can be brought out..."
"That's how it should be!"
“···”
"As for reputation, hey, to be honest, over the years, our Huode Sect has not actually gained a good reputation. It seems that people give us face wherever we go, but in fact..."
It's just a false prosperity.
Thinking of this, they sighed.
This is not their imagination, but a real fact.
For example, once in the past when I was away from home, many forces gathered together.
The situation was a bit complicated at the time, but two of the first-rate forces had some hatred against each other, so they actually ignored their business and started quarreling, and were even about to fight.
Other first-rate sects couldn't persuade him.
When the elder leading the Huode Sect saw it, he also wanted to try it.
After all, on weekdays everyone was very respectful, greeting him with smiles, and acting very cordially, some even calling him "old brother". The elder thought, there should be no problem if he just acted as a peacemaker for the time being, right?
After all, it's not about making peace between them, it's just about letting them calm down for now and we'll talk about it later~
But who knows.
As soon as the words "give me some face" came out, he was immediately ridiculed by both sides.
The face was hit with a loud slapping sound.
"I usually call you brother, do you really think you are in a very high position?"
"Give you face? What kind of face do you have?"
"Who do you think you are?"
"Allowing you to sit here is already giving me enough face, and you still want to be a peacemaker, are you worthy?!"
“···”
Sharp words are like a knife that pierces people's hearts.
The worst thing is, after that, it's even hard to give someone the cold shoulder.
At most, we can impose some sanctions on them in terms of weapon refining.
But Huode Zong is good at refining weapons, but he is not the only one who can do that. He has other options too!
This type of incident is not just one, but countless.
actually···
There are also two factions within the Huode Sect.
One faction wants to stick to itself.
The other group believes that it is too difficult to stick to one's own views and it is better to find a big force to join.
It is nice to take shelter under a big tree. Although you will lose your sovereignty, at least you won't be so passive. When you go out in the future, you won't be looked down upon or ridiculed by others.
When doing things, you no longer have to look back and forth as before.
But the problem is that there are too few people in this group.
Moreover, voting is easy, but how can you determine the other party's character?
How can I be sure that the other party will not do anything wrong after I vote?
Therefore, the matter has been shelved.
Until now...
They suddenly discovered that Lan Yue Sect was actually the best choice.
His character is impeccable!
It's not just the sect leader Lin Fan, but his disciples as well.
It was so dangerous for Yaya to go, but Lin Fan only gave an order and did not even ask them to go, but none of these disciples were absent!
Let’s not talk about their strength for now, just based on their character, there is no need to worry too much about their character.
In other words, whether Lin Fan becomes the sect leader or one of his disciples succeeds him in the future, there is no need to worry too much about this.
Furthermore.
There are many more benefits.
Such as elixirs, skills and resources, needless to say, they are simply amazing!
In fact, in their view, the biggest problem is not the loss of sovereignty, but the fact that Lanyue Sect is only a third-rate sect after all, which is a bit embarrassing.
But this is not unacceptable.
What's wrong with being third rate?
No one dares to really regard the Lanyue Sect as third-rate!
Besides, Lanyue Sect is in need of manpower right now, and Huode Sect will vote~
Isn’t this a timely help?
“I hope it works.”
Ma Canlan muttered, "So, if I meet those guys again in the future, I will still ask them to give me some face. I want to see how many people dare to bully me!"
At the beginning, he was the first one to be slapped in the face!
······
"Uncle Huo?"
Lin Fan happily invited Huo Kunlun to sit down: "Have some tea."
"How come you have time to come?"
In his opinion, Huo Kunlun should be studying the skills obtained from the Sun and Moon Immortal Dynasty with the elders of Huode Sect!
It is worth mentioning that although not many resources were obtained this time, there were still quite a few skills and secret techniques.
There are three copies of the Emperor's Scripture (PS: a set of techniques that can lead to the ninth level of cultivation)!
There are dozens of various first-class secret techniques scattered around.
There are even more at the lower level.
Too bad there is no invincibility.
All of these now fill the Sutra Repository, giving Lan Yue Sect's disciples more choices.
He knew that the Huode Sect lacked martial arts skills.
Now that I have three copies of the Emperor's Scriptures in my hands, shouldn't I study and practice different techniques?
"Brother Lin~"
Facing Lin Fan, Huo Kunlun felt a little awkward for the first time.
After all, I am asking for help from others...
It’s not that he is self-deprecating or looks down on himself, but that there are too many disciples in the Huode Sect.
Compared to the Lanyue Sect... there are really too many.
There are nearly one million disciples, including those taught by the emperor himself, inner and outer sects, and menial servants!
If it were to be directly merged into the Lanyue Sect, based on the Lanyue Sect's monthly salary standards, how much high-quality elixirs would it have to spend every month?
The alchemy lineage must be exhausted!
Even if you work yourself to death you may not be able to produce that much.
On the contrary, what benefits can we bring to the Lanyue Sect?
The most obvious benefit is that refining equipment doesn't cost money, right? In addition, there is a refining business, which can help make some money.
But does Lanyue Sect lack money?
They only have that few manpower, and they also have the alchemy master Xiao Ling'er, so how could they be short of money?
On the contrary, if we take in the Huode Sect, with so many people, we might really be short of money!
Having many disciples is a kind of 'prosperity', but also a 'burden'.
Therefore, in Huo Kunlun's opinion, Lin Fan might not necessarily accept it!
At least, if the identities were reversed and I were the leader of the Lanyue Sect, I don't think he would agree to my "unreasonable request".
He smiled bitterly: "This...I am ashamed to say this."
"Brother, I came here to ask for a favor. I hope Brother Lin will agree to it."
"Huh?"
Lin Fan asked in surprise: "Uncle Huo, what are you talking about?"
"Given the relationship between our two sects, and Yun'er's relationship, even between you and me, we are close friends regardless of age difference. Why did it come to this?"
"Why ask?"
Huo Kunlun said helplessly: "Because I really have something to ask for."
Lin Fan's expression straightened.
I thought to myself, could something big be happening?
He couldn't help but be cautious. He didn't foolishly agree in advance, but asked what it was all about. He said, "Uncle Huo, there's no need to be like this. Just tell me what's going on. I won't refuse to help you if I can."
"Busy... I can help, but~"
Huo Kunlun is a bit fussy.
After all, this is really embarrassing.
But on second thought, whether you stick your head out or hide your head, you will be killed, so why bother?
Done!
"Brother Lin, I, your old brother, would like to ask you to accept the Huode Sect."
Lin Fan: “Σ(⊙▽⊙“a? Huh?!”
"Or in other words... our Huode Sect wants to become a part of the Lanyue Sect. Not to be a subordinate force, but to integrate into the Lanyue Sect and become the Lanyue Sect."
Lin Fan: “(ΩДΩ)? Huh?!”
When Huo Kunlun saw Lin Fan's expression, he immediately smiled bitterly.
"Brother Lin."
"I know, it's a stretch."
"As a fellow sect leader, I also know that our Huode Sect will become a huge burden."
"But... we, the Huode Sect, can't keep taking advantage of them like this, right?"
"At the same time, I've thought about it."
"As long as you agree, our Huode Sect will immediately announce to the world that we will merge into the Lanyue Sect and become the Lanyue Sect's weapon-refining lineage, specializing in weapon-refining."
“Although our past enemies will come with us, so will our connections, businesses, etc.”
"Well, well... As for the consumption of elixirs, we will do our best to train relevant disciples and strive to make up for the vacancies as soon as possible. If it is not enough... the monthly allowance of elixirs will be given to other disciples first. The monthly allowance of the weapon refining lineage will be distributed as usual according to the specifications of the Fire Virtue Sect."
"We will distribute it when the production is sufficient."
"We are latecomers in the weapon refining lineage, so there is no reason for latecomers to be ahead. So, Brother Lin, you don't have to worry too much about this matter."
"As for loyalty, Brother Lin doesn't need to worry too much."
Huo Kunlun took a deep breath.
"I have thought about it. I also know that the Lanyue Sect was betrayed by the Ximen and Zhou families, which led to its decline in a very short period of time. So, as long as you agree, I will ask everyone in the sect to swear an oath to never betray and never have two hearts."
"You must take this oath before you can join the Lanyue Sect."
"Otherwise, let them go down the mountain on their own. From now on, they are no longer disciples of Huode Sect, and they cannot join Lanyue Sect."
"Other aspects..."
“···”
Huo Kunlun has become even more fussy.
Obviously, he had really thought of everything.
To say it out now is to cover all aspects.
He mentioned everything that Lin Fan had thought of and had not thought of, and gave a perfect solution. Of course, this perfection was from Lin Fan's perspective.
If you look at it from Huo Kunlun's perspective... he suffered a huge loss.
Finally, Huo Kunlun concluded: "In short, I hope Brother Lin will give me a chance."
"Let our Huode Sect have someone to rely on from now on."
"I hope... that the Lanyue Sect can be respected!"
As he spoke, he paid attention to Lin Fan's micro-expressions.
Lin Fan, however, had no expression on his face.
But in my heart, I was already beaming with joy.
I thought it was something serious and I was so scared that I almost didn't dare to agree.
That's the result?!
That's it?!
Hi!
You, the Huode Sect, I have been planning this for a long time, okay?
Otherwise, guess why I want to "support" you, give you so much profit, and give you so many high-quality pills?
Isn't it just that you want to take it step by step?
I just didn't expect it to be so fast.
I didn't expect it~
You will take the initiative to bring it up!
In Lin Fan's opinion, Huode Sect must be taken in, but not now, because the time is not yet ripe. If he jumps out and says to Huode Sect: "Don't play with Huode Sect anymore, just join Lanyue Sect~"
I’m afraid that they will jump out and fight me to the death!
But who would have thought~
This 'favorability' is increasing much faster than I thought???
What exactly went wrong here?
He was puzzled about his sister.
But no matter what, this is definitely good news.
There are indeed burdens.
The main focus is on alchemy.
However, we can completely follow what Huo Kunlun said and keep the monthly salary as usual.
Let’s wait until the production supply increases~!
And, it actually doesn’t take that long.
Although the Huode Sect is wealthy and powerful, most of its nearly one million disciples are below the fifth level.
Xiao Ling'er can currently handle elixirs of the fifth level and above by herself.
It is difficult to say about the fourth-level elixir, those above the seventh grade, but those of the fifth or sixth grade~ those inner disciples of the alchemy lineage have gradually begun to mass-produce them under the training of Xiao Ling'er.
Among them, Huo Yuner is now the second best alchemist in Lanyue Sect.
She knew how to make pills and had even participated in an alchemy conference.
And there is also strange fire~
Under Xiao Ling'er's training, isn't it natural and easy for him to make rapid progress?
She could even refine the elixirs needed for the fifth and sixth realms, and could maintain the fifth and sixth grades, and occasionally produce the sixth and seventh grades.
In other words~
In fact, there is no shortage of elixirs above the fifth level.
Below~
In two or three years at most, there will be no shortage of it.
After all, once the Huode Sect is integrated into it, then the disciples of the Huode Sect will be the disciples of the Lanyue Sect. The alchemy lineage of the Huode Sect can be completely integrated into the alchemy lineage of the Lanyue Sect!
Then select some good seedlings and let Xiao Ling'er train them for two years.
With this output, the output of low-level, high-quality elixirs can naturally keep up.
Lin Fan was pondering.
Huo Kunlun felt like an ant on a hot pan and was in agony.
Why don't you speak?!
No expression either.
Even if it's rejection...
Please at least say something.
finally.
Lin Fan moved.
"Uncle Huo."
He looked at Huo Kunlun deeply and said, "This proposal means that you, Uncle Huo, think highly of me, Lin Fan, and my Lanyue Sect. I naturally welcome it."
"only···"
"Your clan elders and supreme elders, do you agree?"
He couldn't understand why his favorability increased so quickly and why he conquered the enemy so quickly.
I’m afraid Huo Kunlun is acting rashly and the other elders will disagree!
"them?"
Huo Kunlun thought of the elders' indirect urging.
He thought of the great elders pointing at his nose and cursing him, and he couldn't help but smile when he turned around, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly.
How could they not agree?!
They are obviously more impatient than me, right?!
"They all agreed."
After all, we have to save some face for our own people.
Although those old guys did some excessive things, they still have to take the blame.
I memorized it myself.
"If that's the case, then I have no problem."
"You are most welcome!"
Lin Fan couldn't help but smile: "But, there is one thing I don't understand, that is... Huode Sect is developing well, and it's not far from being first-rate, right? Why did you suddenly have this idea?"
"I won't hide it from you, old man... well, I won't hide it from you, Master."
Huo Kunlun changed his words immediately and decided to solidify the relationship first!
"In fact, everything is just a false prosperity."
"The Huode Sect has technology, resources, connections, money...it seems to have everything, but unfortunately, it does not have enough fighting power and its fists are not strong enough."
"But in the final analysis, the cultivation world always respects strength."
He smiled bitterly.
Don't want to continue.
You just surrendered and you're already complaining to the leader. How can that be?
"False prosperity?"
He didn't go into detail.
Lin Fan suddenly realized and murmured, "Stock up on food instead of guns. Your house is a granary..."
How could he not understand this truth?
But I didn't expect that Huode Sect, a top second-rate sect, actually had a lot of "water".
He even couldn't help but think of that hypothesis - if a world war was about to break out and the whole world was plunged into war, and you had 1 billion yuan, what would you choose to hoard?
The answers were varied.
Some people think it is food. After all, man is made of iron and rice is made of steel. Without food, nothing you say will work.
Some people think that we should stock up on medicine, especially anti-inflammatory drugs. After all, medicine is hard currency and can be used to exchange for many things.
Some people think it is gold. At least for now, gold is the most stable "currency". No matter who is in power, the value of gold will not be low, and gold can also be used to buy almost all materials.
But when Lin Fan saw these answers, he wanted to laugh.
Mad...
If the assumption is true, the world is in chaos, and you still want to exchange things with others?
What the hell are you thinking about!
Of course, you have to stock up on everything, but the most important thing is guns! Guns!
This is actually probably the current situation of the Huode Sect.
Xianwu Continent is actually between order and disorder~
However, Huo De Zong's "gun", or firepower, was not strong enough, so he must have been bullied a lot over the years.
In a battle between the Sun and Moon Immortal Dynasty, the Moon-Raising Sect showed off its muscles~
Plus the temptation of elixirs.
It is not surprising that Huode Zong suddenly made this choice.
"Hmm... there should also be those invincible methods."
Lin Fan completely dispelled his doubts.
Huo Kunlun kept repeating the words "Stock up on food, not guns; your home is the granary," with deep emotion.
“Insightful!”
“It’s really insightful.”
If it were someone else, they might not know what a "gun" is and might think it was a red tasseled gun.
But he, Huo Kunlun, really knows it.
Isn't that Barrett?
"So, Sect Master, let's make a deal?"
He stared at Lin Fan with burning eyes.
Damn!
Who cares?!
In the past, we stockpiled food but not guns, but from now on, our Huode Sect will be a part of the Lanyue Sect!
There are Xiao Ling'er, Yaya, Qiu Yongqin, Wang Teng, and...
There are so many peerless geniuses!
There are also powerful foreign players such as Long Aojiao, Song Yunxiao, and Lu Ming.
And a 'gun'!
Add to that the strength of our Huode Sect, and I'd like to see how many forces will be able to bully us and give us the cold shoulder in the future!
As for a genius who has not grown up, he is just a genius...
What you said is true, but there is more than one genius in the Lanyue Sect!
But a group!
They can't all die prematurely, right?
What's more, they have already become a big name!
What's there to be afraid of?
Perhaps the only thing to worry about is the Haoyue Sect and the forces that colluded with the Ximen family and the Zhou family and hid in the dark to deal with the Lanyue Sect.
However, given the combat power currently demonstrated by the Lan Yue Sect, even those two parties should think twice, right?
At least they won't start a head-on battle recklessly, otherwise their losses will not be small.
Therefore, in Huo Kunlun's view, there is indeed a crisis, but it is worth a fight!
"It's settled."
Lin Fan nodded, as if to agree.
"From now on, Huode Sect will be the weapon-refining branch of Lanyue Sect."
“Hey~!”
Unexpectedly, Huo Kunlun waved his hands repeatedly: "Master, this is wrong!"
"What is Huode Sect?"
"Huo De Peak, it's Huo De Peak!"
He corrected her.
Lin Fan burst out laughing.
This person... is quite humorous.
"It was my mistake, Huo Defeng."
Lin Fan changed his words: "It's just that the current territory of Lanyue Sect is still a little insufficient, and the territory of Huode Peak is far away."
"Let's do this."
"The Huode Peak lineage, I will grant you a hundred sacred mountains."
“First, we will relocate some relatively core industries and personnel here.”
"The rest will be worked out slowly later."
"no problem."
Huo Kunlun nodded: "It should be so, nothing wrong with it."
"As for treatment, we'll do as you say, and strive to unify the treatment for all sect members within two years." Lin Fan added, "The Sutra Library will be fully open... In short, the rest of the treatment will be the same for all."
Actually, there is a small problem here.
That is the direct disciple of Huode Sect.
After integrating into the Lanyue Sect, strictly speaking, their status will be lowered.
But there is not much difference.
And relatively speaking, there are many advantages, so they should not refuse.
"Nothing is wrong. Nothing is wrong."
Huo Kunlun nodded frantically like a chick pecking at rice.
"Then I will start announcing it to the world. The ceremony will be held in three days. From now on, there will only be the Lanyue Sect's Huode Peak, and no more Huode Sect~!"
“At that time, we will invite powerful people from all walks of life to come and watch the ceremony, and let all the elders and disciples of our sect change their sects and swear a Dao Heart and Heavenly Dao Oath.”
"Is this... necessary?"
Lin Fan was surprised.
Doing this would be somewhat embarrassing for Huo Kunlun and others.
He originally thought that the two parties would merge privately first and then announce it slowly later.
But I didn't expect Huo Kunlun to make such a big move from the beginning.
"It must be so! I will arrange everything needed for the ceremony."
Huo Kunlun was firm: "Although this move will put the Huo Defeng lineage at the center of public opinion and will inevitably lead to gossip, since we have made this choice, we must be prepared to withstand all the storms and ridicule!"
"And I firmly believe that in the future, they will be slapped in the face."
In fact~
What he was thinking was: If we don't dare to make it public, I'm afraid that other people in Lanyue Sect will think that we, the Huode Sect, are not sincere enough.
······
The news came out.
Make a big noise in the southwest region.
Needless to say, the second- and third-rate sects were shocked.
Even many first-rate sects, and even super first-rate sects, were angered by this.
"How can this be possible?!"
"Did Huo Kunlun of Huo De Sect suddenly go crazy and make such a choice?"
"Merge into Lanyue Sect? Wouldn't merging into our sect be better than Lanyue Sect? Why did you have to choose Lanyue Sect? This is simply... too much!"
“They all deserve to die!”
“···”
"It would be great if I could choose you!"
In the final analysis, there are only two words: sour.
So sour!
Although Huode Zong's fists are not strong enough, his technology is really good and his business is very big. In other words, this is a money-making enterprise that is sure to make a profit.
No matter which side you join, you can bring in a lot of money and help it develop more rapidly.
In the past, countless forces have extended olive branches to the Huode Sect, but they have never responded.
Insist on independence, self-financing and the like~
In addition, the Huode Sect had some connections, so they couldn't force it, and the matter was dragged on.
I thought there would be no unexpected changes, after all, Huode Zong’s attitude was so firm before.
Therefore, in the eyes of these first-rate sects, even if Huode Sect wanted to find a force to join or merge with, it should at least be a super first-rate force, or even a holy place, right? !
result!
Now there is news.
The Huode Sect is really preparing to merge with other forces!
And it was fucking Lan! Yue! Zong!
A broken third-rate sect!
Although it is said that it is quite powerful now, isn't it still third-rate? !
"Confused!"
“What a mess!”
"Huo Kunlun is really confused!"
"The Lanyue Sect was not stable to begin with, and had many enemies. Originally, it might have been able to survive for a while, but now that the Lanyue Sect has been exposed, it is already in danger. If the Huode Sect merges with it, wouldn't that make the situation even worse?"
"Even if they don't want to do it, with you as a piece of fat meat, they will want to do it, right?"
They cursed.
And laugh at it.
Various public opinions surged like a raging storm, almost drowning Huo Dezong.
However, Huo Kunlun and many elders and high-ranking officials of Huode Sect were extremely resolute in their attitudes and did not care about these things at all.
And inform all disciples that everyone must take a 'vow'.
only···
However, the disciples did not know the specific situation within the Lanyue Sect.
Not everyone is willing to join.
Especially under the ridicule and mockery of countless people...
"Brother, are you really leaving?"
A large number of disciples gathered at the gate of Huode Sect. They had different expressions and most of them felt confused.
"I'm leaving."
Someone waved his hand and said, "I joined the Huode Sect because it was developing very well and was a top second-rate sect. But now, I don't know what the sect leader and his men have gone crazy for. They actually... Oh, forget it, I won't say anything more."
"In short, I will not go to the Lanyue Sect. Otherwise, if it gets out, people will laugh at me. Even if they have the strength, I can't afford to lose this person."
"Junior brothers and sisters, the mountains are high and the rivers are long. I hope we will meet again in the future."
"Brother, I'm leaving too."
"I... Well, I'll go too."
"My mother asked me to leave..."
······
After getting the final data, Huo Kunlun looked a little ugly.
"More than 10% of the disciples chose to leave?"
"No problem."
Lin Fan shook his head and smiled: "After all, joining the Lanyue Sect is also dangerous, not everyone is willing to take the risk."
He didn't like to say things like "If they ignore him today, let them ignore him tomorrow."
But everyone has the right to choose their own life.
They have the final say on how to choose.
As long as they don't regret it later, it doesn't matter to me what they choose.
"Too."
“Eliminating these people in advance will reduce pressure.”
Huo Kunlun came back to his senses and nodded slightly: "Tomorrow, the ceremony will be held as usual."
"good."
······
The next day!
The Huode Sect was officially merged into the Lanyue Sect, becoming the weapon-refining branch of the Lanyue Sect, named Huode Peak!
According to spectators.
On that day, thunder rumbled in the Lanyue Sect, and the aura of heaven filled the air, lingering for a long time.
I wonder how many monks have taken this vow!
What puzzled them was that they thought many Huode Sect elders would oppose and be dissatisfied.
But in the end, everyone was happy and peaceful...
This made them extremely confused and they had no idea why this was happening.
······
Huodezong became history from then on.
From now on, there is only Huode Peak of Lanyue Sect!
It has just been incorporated and it will take time to get adjusted.
Especially since the number of disciples of Huode Peak is dozens of times more than that of Lanyue Sect. Fortunately, the elders of Huode Peak are very capable and are restraining their own disciples. In addition, the disciples of Lanyue Sect are also growing...
Especially with the presence of 'contemporary disciples' such as Xiao Ling'er.
There is nothing to fear.
With the addition of various skills and secret techniques, the strength of all disciples of Lanyue Sect is steadily improving.
Even the food for the many spirit beasts in the spirit beast garden has been improved a lot.
More than a month later.
The Lanyue Sect is practicing as usual.
Sudden.
The vast demonic power swept in, shaking all 520 sacred mountains of the Lanyue Sect. The sect's protective formation was in danger and was almost blown away by the 'wind'!
"There is a demon king!"
Lin Fan frowned.
Immediately, many powerful men from the Lanyue Sect rushed out at the same time.
"It's Samadhi Divine Wind!"
A supreme elder of Huode Peak said in shock: "I have seen this kind of Samadhi Divine Wind when I was young. Once it blows at full force, it can blow away a person's soul!"
Yaya frowned.
Her injuries have not yet fully recovered, but she can still attack without any problems.
"Certainly!"
She raised her hand.
The bronze immortal palace flew out and covered the Lanyue Sect from a distance, making the Lanyue Sect more stable.
Many disciples then dared to show their heads, all of them were terrified.
"what happened?!"
Wang Teng rubbed his hands in the sun, eager to try.
"Come to see me."
Long Aojiao narrowed his eyes slightly.
She knew the other party's purpose, but at this moment, she had to pretend not to know.
Otherwise, the Lanyue Sect will be implicated.
Lin Fan and the others could roughly guess it, but at this moment, they also had to pretend to be ignorant.
boom!
A demonic aura slashed past.
In just a moment, it seemed as if the entire sky was split apart.
Countless white clouds were split apart, creating a marvelous sight like a line of sky!
Immediately, more than ten demon kings arrived.
They are all great monsters from the Feather Clan, and they come with ill intentions.
"You Lan Yue Zong are so brave!"
The first person was burning with flames all over his body and had an astonishing aura. He had already reached the peak of the eighth realm. And because he was a demon, his body was strong, and relatively speaking, he was stronger than humans at the same realm.
He opened his mouth and shouted sternly, "How dare you secretly hide the deadly enemy of my Feather Clan? What crime should you be punished for?"
"To raise an army to investigate the crime?"
Lin Fan stepped forward, expressionless: "Evidence?"
"We are here, and that is the evidence!"
"The demon kings of my Feather Clan have come here in person. How dare you, a mere third-rate sect like your Lanyue Sect, ask us for evidence?"
"joke!"
The demon king laughed wildly.
"Then fight?"
Lin Fan responded.
The demon kings: “···?!”
grass?
Why doesn't this guy play by the rules? !
The demon king, who was burning with blazing flames, snorted coldly: "Considering that you are unaware and this is your first offense, I am too lazy to bother with you. Just hand him over!"
What it really wants to say is, don't fucking think that we are afraid of you, the Lan Yue Sect.
only···
I'm just afraid of that little girl from Wanhua Holy Land!
Especially when they saw that girl eager to try, their scalps went numb.
"Oh."
Lin Fan chuckled: "I see."
"But since you also said that this sect master didn't know about it, yet you asked this sect master to hand over the person."
"Then you have to tell this Sect Master who to hand it over to, right?"
"Of course it's Long Aotian!"
"Long Aotian?"
Lin Fan was immediately surprised: "Long Aotian is in my Lanyue Sect?"
He turned around and looked at the many disciples and elders: "Do you know about this?"
"Where is Long Aotian?"
Everyone shook their heads and said in unison: "I don't know."
Long Aojiao crossed his arms, looking like a bystander who didn't care about anything.
