"Mr. Fang, I'm so sorry." The next second, Lin Yao's expression became respectful and humble. She took light steps, walked up to Fang Han, bowed slightly, and said respectfully.
Her voice was soft, with a hint of caution, a stark contrast to the sternness she displayed when reprimanding the elder.
Scarface, Elder Wu, and the Discipline Elder, among others, witnessed this scene and felt their hearts sink into an abyss.
They were not fools, and they naturally sensed that Fang Han's identity must be extraordinary, perhaps even above that of the sect leader, Lin Yao.
Otherwise, given Lin Yao's proud and arrogant nature, there would be no way he would be so humble and respectful to Fang Han.
In fact, Lin Yao was extremely nervous at this moment.
Recalling yesterday morning, she had just returned from Yanming City. Fang Han had shown her mercy and let her go that time.
She thought the matter was over, but now that Fang Han had suddenly appeared without warning, a chill ran through her heart.
She secretly wondered if Fang Han had changed his mind and was here to completely annihilate her and the entire Poison King Sect.
The moment this thought crossed her mind, a fine layer of sweat instantly appeared on her palms, and her heartbeat quickened involuntarily. However, she still had to pretend to be calm and maintain the dignity of the sect leader.
"It's alright. Your Poison King Sect doesn't have a good reputation to begin with, and everyone knows your style of doing things. I was already expecting this. If I didn't show some real skills, how could I have met you so easily?"
Fang Han remained calm, then changed the subject, continuing, "The Shi family, since returning to Guyue City, has not given up their evil intentions and even attempted to retaliate against me. Relying on Shi Tianming's connections, they actually mobilized a thousand county soldiers, attempting to intimidate me by force. Just last night, every adult expert in the Shi family above the Martial Master level was killed without exception. Now, the remaining old, young, sick, and disabled are already terrified and have fled in a sorry state. From now on, the Shi family will no longer be a force in Guyue City."
Upon hearing this, not only Lin Yao, but everyone present from the Poison King Sect was shocked by this sudden news.
The crowd looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
It should be noted that the Shi family is a powerful and influential family in this area, wielding considerable influence and having a complex and intertwined relationship with the Poison King Sect.
Upon hearing that the Shi family had suffered such a devastating calamity overnight, how could everyone's hearts not be filled with shock and disbelief?
"Mr. Fang, as soon as I returned to Guyue City from Yanming City, I went straight to the Shi family. At that time, the Shi family was busy gathering their elites and plotting how to take revenge on you. When I saw this, I immediately told the Shi family head, Shi Tianyong, that if the Shi family did not sincerely apologize to you, they would surely face the calamity of extermination. Unfortunately, Shi Tianyong was too arrogant and did not listen to my advice at all."
Lin Yao frowned slightly, a hint of regret flashing in her beautiful eyes. She sighed softly and said quietly, "Now that he has ended up like this, it can only be said that he brought it on himself."
"You don't need to be so nervous. I've come to see you today because I have something to discuss with you, not because I want to take action against your Poison King Sect. Let's put an end to all the past grievances."
Fang Han keenly sensed the hint of fear in Lin Yao's eyes, raised his hand slightly, and spoke gently.
Fang Han's words made Lin Yao, who had been on edge, secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Fang, distinguished guests, please follow me."
Lin Yao quickly cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Fang Han and the others, extending an invitation.
She secretly rejoiced that she hadn't impulsively chosen to take revenge on Fang Han; otherwise, the Poison King Sect would probably have suffered the same tragic fate as the Shi family.
Seeing this, Fang Han nodded slightly and withdrew his divine sense that was suppressing the Poison King Sect members.
In an instant, the dozens of people, including the Discipline Elder, the Black-Clad Elder, and Scarface of the Poison King Sect, who had been immobilized, suddenly felt the invisible pressure on their bodies disappear and their bodies finally regained their freedom.
The group stretched their stiff bodies, their fear of Fang Han intensifying.
Soon, Lin Yao led the way, taking Fang Han and the others towards the Poison King Sect.
"How could there be such a terrifying demon in this world? He doesn't even need to lift a finger; he merely releases an aura that renders us immobile. Even our sect leader never exerts such a powerful aura on us on ordinary days..."
As Scarface walked, he was still immersed in the shock he had just experienced, muttering to himself unconsciously.
His voice was soft, but it sounded exceptionally clear in the quiet atmosphere.
"Smack!"
Before Scarface could finish speaking, a loud slap suddenly rang out.
The elder in black robes glared angrily, his face contorted with rage, and raised his hand to slap the scarred man hard across the face.
Caught off guard, Scarface was sent flying by the slap, crashing heavily to the ground. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, making him look extremely disheveled.
"Master, why...why did you hit me?"
Scarface, looking utterly aggrieved, struggled to his feet and said with a mournful expression.
He was filled with confusion, not understanding why his master would be so angry when he had only spoken a few words from the heart.
“I was misled by you before, but now it seems that Mr. Fang is at least a peerless expert in the Divine Sense Realm. He suppressed us with his powerful divine sense. You ignorant fool, how dare you spout nonsense and call him a demon? If you are determined to die, your master will naturally not stop you. But don’t forget, if you continue to speak so recklessly, you will only implicate your master and other fellow disciples, dragging us all into an abyss of no return.”
The elder in black snorted coldly, his eyes filled with disappointment, and reprimanded the scarred man sternly.
Upon hearing his master's words, Scarface turned deathly pale and dared not utter another sound.
