Chapter 480 Final Talk Before Leaving



Since they had already made their decision, there was no time to hesitate.

They would need to not only gather up the city troops that Yue Lan and Ming Xin had trained, they also needed to prepare the supplies for all of these troops.

At the same time, Lin Fan also had a few things that he wanted to prepare before going.

But the most important thing of all...was the Love Sect.

There were remnants of the previous Love Sect that were in the current Love Sect. These were the previous disciples of the Love Sect led by the Senior Brother Ying.

They had also found a few other disciples during the time that Lin Fan had been out through Yue Lan's connections and they had brought them all back to the Dungeon City.

Since these were the remnants of the Love Sect and they were going to attack the sect that had participated in the destruction of the Love Sect, there was no doubt that they should be included in this attack on the Gale Sect.

But before that, Lin Fan wanted to talk to them to see what they thought about this.

Still, it was hard for him to bring this up since this involved a matter that deeply hurt them...so he avoided them until night came.

His excuse was that he was helping Yue Lan and Ming Xin prepare the army, though in reality, he was just following them around during the day so that he didn't have to talk to those people from the Love Sect.

The two of them didn't mind, but they still chased him off since they knew that this was something that he had to do sooner or later.

Since they had chased him off, Lin Fan found Mu Bao Bao first before heading to the current Love Sect.

Since the Love Sect was still in hiding and there were many enemies, the place that they were gathered wasn't called the Love Sect. This place wasn't even called a sect, but rather it was disguised as an orphanage.

After all, most of the current Love Sect disciples were orphans that had been gathered from all over the empire by Yue Lan. So with all of these orphans, it was no problem for them to hide the current Love Sect as an orphanage.

When he arrived, Lin Fan was immediately greeted respectfully by many disciples.

Even disciples that he had never met before respectfully greeted him like they already knew about him.

Lin Fan couldn't help being surprised by this until he found...the source of it all.

It seemed that while he was away, the elders of the sect, these senior brothers and sisters of Mu Bao Bao, had been busy. In addition to teaching them cultivation, they had been making sure that Lin Fan was someone that every single disciple recognized.

They had built a statue of him right in the center courtyard and there were plenty of posters with his face posted all over the buildings.

If he didn't know any better, he would have thought that he had just walked into the residence of a diehard fan of his...but he knew that this was just how they were showing their respect for him.

At the same time, he knew that it wasn't just the senior brothers and sisters who did this...it was most likely also the work of the Hidden Dragon Sect...

They believed that he was their sect master and that the plan was to slowly take over the Love Sect, so of course they did all that they could to raise the prestige of their 'sect master' in the Love Sect.

For those people, their lives were on the line, so of course they did all that they could to appease him.

But what they didn't know was that all this did was annoy Lin Fan.

Unfortunately, Lin Fan couldn't chase them away since they were very powerful even if they were annoying. Those that came from the Hidden Dragon Sect made up most of the current Love Sect's power.

In terms of Golden Core Cultivators, they were the only ones that the Love Sect had other than Mu Bao Bao.

So Lin Fan couldn't chase them away since he still needed them for his mission.

But for now, the ones that he had business with were the elders of the Love Sect.

Since he had created a commotion by appearing in this place, it didn't take long before people were attracted by this commotion that he created.

Senior Brother Ying and the other senior brothers and sisters of Mu Bao Bao came over to greet Lin Fan.

During the time that they had been away, it seemed that they had found a few more remnants of the Love Sect and had brought them here since there were unfamiliar faces with Senior Brother Ying.

However, Mu Bao Bao happily greeted them which was all that mattered.

Senior Brother Ying said, "Brother Lin, it really has been a long time since you've been back. We had thought that you had forgotten about us."

Lin Fan just said with a smile, "It's been busy lately and I haven't had time to come visit."

Though he had already been in the city for over a week now and still hadn't visited.

In truth, Lin Fan didn't want to visit unless he had to since he was avoiding those from the Hidden Dragon Sect.

They still believed that he was their sect master, so he avoided them to prevent them from finding out the truth.

Still, Lin Fan didn't spend too much time on greetings since there was a reason why he had come here today.

After a few words, Senior Brother Ying and the others from the Love Sect were gathered in the hall. The people from the Hidden Dragon Sect had also wanted to come, but he convinced them that this was a matter related to the old Love Sect.

If the people from the Hidden Dragon Sect came, it really would be awkward.

It was hard for them to accept at first, but Lin Fan was able to convince them in the end since in their minds, he was the evil sect master who controlled all of their lives.

After settling in this room, Lin Fan didn't waste any time in telling them what they had found out during their trips over this past period of time.

Once they had learned the truth and who it was that had destroyed the Love Sect, they all couldn't help looking at Mu Bao Bao with complicated looks. Of course, there wasn't a single one of them that looked at her with looks of blame since they knew that she was also a victim in all of this.

But Mu Bao Bao couldn't help feeling guilty as she bowed to them and said, "I'm sorry, it was all my fault."

In no time at all, all of the senior brothers and sisters started comforting Mu Bao Bao, telling her that it was in no way her fault.

If one had to blame someone, it would either be the princes or her father, the emperor.

Normally, one would be angry that their father was being insulted like this, but Mu Bao Bao seemed like she didn't care at all.

In truth, she most likely didn't care in the slightest since in her heart, she didn't take Emperor Mu as her father.

Once they had settled down, I told them about Emperor Mu's plan to attack the Gale Sect, as well as what the Gale Sect had done.

Once they heard all of this, they fell into silence again.

After all, there was no way that this situation was as simple as it seemed.

After a while, Senior Brother Ying said, "Are you certain that you want to do this?"

Mu Bao Bao had an unwilling look on her face, but she looked at me and then she revealed a calm look before saying, "Yes."

Seeing this, Senior Brother Ying said, "Alright, then we will go with you. However, I want to leave a few of us behind just in case things go wrong so that we can preserve the Love Sect. Are you alright with that?"

The one that he asked this to was Lin Fan and not Mu Bao Bao because right now, Lin Fan was the sect master.

Even if Mu Bao Bao had been the sect master before and was currently the grand elder, the right to make decisions in the sect was still up to Lin Fan as the sect master. So they had to respect this and ask Lin Fan for his permission before doing anything.

Lin Fan just gave a simple nod before saying, "Do whatever you want to do. I won't force any of you to come and I won't force any of you to stay. Just do what your heart wants to do in this situation."

This might seem like it was a very wishy washy thing to say, but in truth, it was what he needed to say at this moment.

That was because everyone knew that they wouldn't have a role to play in this attack on the Gale Sect.

The Gale Sect was a sect that had even participated in the destruction of the Love Sect when it was at its peak. For the current Love Sect that was far from being able to compare to the Love Sect at its peak, there was nothing that they would be able to do to the Love Sect.

The only reason that they were going was because they were going to take revenge for the past Love Sect.

After a while, Senior Brother Ying said, "Can you let us discuss this? We will come back to you tomorrow on who will depart and who will stay."

Lin Fan gave a simple nod before turning to leave.

He knew that when it came to this talk, he wasn't someone that should stay to listen since he wasn't someone that had been with the Love Sect before.

He should give them the privacy that they need.

Mu Bao Bao was about to stand up and leave with Lin Fan, but he shook his head in her direction to tell her to stay.

She had wanted to leave to show support for Lin Fan and while he appreciated it, he knew that she should also stay to talk with them.

He understood that this was their past and he didn't want to disrespect it, so he understood the boundaries that he should set.

Mu Bao Bao looked at him with a grateful look before turning to face her senior brothers and sisters with a serious look.

As Lin Fan left, he thought about taking the Hidden Dragon Sect with him, but he rejected this thought in the end.

After all, the Hidden Dragon Sect was fickle and a time bomb, so he wanted as little contact with them as possible.

Most importantly, they wouldn't be able to help in the first place.

So it was better to leave them here to cultivate.
