"Do you dare to disrespect the imperial family!" the North American County Princess said coldly. "Do you know what a grave offense this is?"
"I am not aware of such matters. Furthermore, no one can offend the might of my Tianhuo Sect!" the Sect Master of Tianhuo Sect said coldly. "No one can stop what I wish to do, even if it means offending the imperial family, so what of it!"
"If I personally make a move, I can already fight you to a draw. If my Heavenly Emperor were to come, I wonder if you could still handle it!" Lu Fan sneered. "I'm not trying to threaten you, merely offering a friendly reminder, hoping you'll understand!" Su Dan Novel Network
Following these words, Ye Jiantian's expression turned grim. Lu Fan's previous words had clearly struck a chord, and any slight misstep could lead to endless turmoil.
"Sect Master, you should consider carefully. Everything I've said is the truth!" Lu Fan spoke again. "As for other matters, I will not say more to you. If Tianhuo Sect is unwilling to cooperate with the Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Court will not coerce you. However, if one day Tianhuo Sect violates the rules of the Heavenly Dynasty, the Heavenly Dynasty will absolutely not stand idly by and will strike with thunderous force!"
Facing these words, Ye Jiantian's expression was somewhat unpleasant. Especially being threatened by Lu Fan in this manner made him even more disgruntled. However, he was also acutely aware that Lu Fan's words were not without merit.
If they truly were to oppose the Heavenly Dynasty, their Tianzonghuo would not be qualified.
"Sect Master, you must not be deceived by them. The reason they say this is likely because they have already made preparations. Our Tianhuo Sect cannot fall for their ploy!" Several men nearby chimed in, urging him to reconsider. In their view, Lu Fan's arrival at Tianhuo Sect was a provocation to their sect's authority, and there was no room for negotiation.
"Enough, enough. Isn't it just about joining forces with the Heavenly Dynasty to deal with the Hell Dynasty together!" Ye Jiantian waved his hand. "I agree to this matter, as long as you don't make things difficult for Tianhuo Sect!"
"Thank you then, Sect Master!" Lu Fan clasped his fists. He hadn't expected the matter to be agreed to so easily.
"No need for thanks. I am doing this for the sect!"
The Sect Master of Tianhuo Sect waved his hand, his expression indifferent. The matter was settled, and any further discussion would be meaningless.
The members of Tianhuo Sect looked on with suspicion and disbelief. At least in their eyes, the Sect Master of Tianhuo Sect should not have acted this way.
They were a super sect, with extraordinary strength. Any slight could lead to endless disaster, and they were very aware of this.
"Everything I do is for the entire sect. That young man's strength is extremely formidable. He will likely become the most dazzling existence in the near future!" the Sect Master of Tianhuo Sect stated directly. "Therefore, forging a good relationship with him is a necessary choice for the entire Tianhuo Sect!"
"Sect Master, can he truly fight you to a draw?"
An elder spoke with seriousness, his tone laced with doubt. In their opinion, the Sect Master of Tianhuo Sect was exceptionally strong, and under normal circumstances, he should not have been defeated.
"That's right, his strength is on par with mine. If we were to engage for a prolonged period, I fear even I might not be able to defeat him, and could even sustain severe injuries!"
The Sect Master of Tianhuo Sect said frankly, his gaze appearing calm, as if everything was as it should be in his eyes.
At the same time, everyone could clearly feel that the Sect Master of Tianhuo Sect had no further words to add.
Although the Sect Master possessed immense strength, he had to consider the entire sect. They were well aware of this and understood the gravity of the situation.
As the Sect Master of Tianhuo Sect had said, some matters were not as simple as they appeared. To ensure the long-term survival of the sect, some special methods were necessary. Although super sects were powerful, they were still far inferior to the Heavenly Emperor Dynasty, and they understood this very clearly.
After leaving Tianhuo Sect, Lu Fan turned to Xue Long and asked, "Senior, besides Tianhuo Sect, do you know of any other super sects?"
"I am naturally aware!"
Xue Long nodded. "However, Tianhuo Sect alone has already made me weary. If we were to go to other sects, I'm afraid..."
"It's fine. As I said, I have complete confidence!" Lu Fan waved his hand, a smile appearing on his lips. He knew very well that if he couldn't bring the super sects under his banner, it would be extremely detrimental to the entire Heavenly Dynasty.
Seeing Lu Fan's persistence, Xue Long didn't say anything more, as he understood Lu Fan's character.
"Not far from Tianhuo Sect is Tianxiang Sect. This sect is extremely peculiar and is also one of the super sects!"
Xue Long explained, "If we can subdue Tianxiang Sect, then we don't need to go to other super sects!"
"Why is that?" Lu Fan asked, puzzled. The explanation he received was particularly thought-provoking.
"Tianxiang Sect has many peerless beauties. Not only are these beauties highly cultivated, but their temperament and other aspects completely overshadow others!"
Xue Long stated directly. "Therefore, most of Tianxiang Sect's consorts are in other super sects. As the saying goes, Tianxiang Sect is the root of the super sects!"
"I see!"
Lu Fan nodded slightly, a smile appearing on his face. He hadn't expected there to be such a connection, which was quite significant.
