Chapter 140: Dragon's Arrogant Recovery and the Traitor's Counterattack on Moonseizing Sect! (Part 2)
"But, well, I have a nephew..."
"Oh, wow."
Huo Kunlun was speechless, "You're waiting for my approval?"
He sighed, "This matter, I believe, is inappropriate. If all of you change your affiliations, how would Fire Virtue Sect handle it? How would others view our sect?"
"So, this matter..."
"Do you find it inappropriate?" Jin Zhen nodded, "Yes, I also think it's inappropriate."
Ma Canlan quickly agreed, "Indeed!"
Zhao Tiezhu shook his head, "I also think it's inappropriate."
"So, you agree?" Huo Kunlun was taken aback.
"It's not that we agree. We just think it's inappropriate for Yun'er to become a disciple of Moonseizing Sect."
Huo Kunlun furrowed his brows, looking at the third elder.
"What do you have to say?"
Zhao Tiezhu spoke honestly, "Me?"
"I don't have so many wild ideas."
"And I don't have any descendants, which you know, Elder."
"But, well, I have a nephew..."
"Oh, wow."
Huo Kunlun was speechless, "You're waiting for my approval?"
He sighed, "This matter, I believe, is inappropriate. If all of you change your affiliations, how would Fire Virtue Sect handle it? How would others view our sect?"
"So, this matter..."
"Do you find it inappropriate?" Jin Zhen nodded, "Yes, I also think it's inappropriate."
Ma Canlan quickly agreed, "Indeed!"
Zhao Tiezhu shook his head, "I also think it's inappropriate."
"So, you agree?" Huo Kunlun was taken aback.
"It's not that we agree. We just think it's inappropriate for Yun'er to become a disciple of Moonseizing Sect."
Huo Kunlun: "..."

In the meantime, within the Fire Virtue Sect...
Upon receiving a secret order to temporarily manage all sect affairs, the Fourth Elder was dumbfounded.
"It's not that..."
"If the Supreme Elder and the other three elders don't return, I'd understand."
"Why even the Sect Master?"
"If there's no code, I'd suspect the Sect Master was kidnapped!" The Fourth Elder was baffled.
Fortunately, after so many years of development, the sect didn't require constant supervision from the Supreme Elder and others, or else things would've been chaotic.
"There's something important, but they won't say what it is, keeping it so mysterious."
"The Third Elder returned and even made copies of many secret techniques from the Scripture Repository..."
"Odd!"
"It's truly odd."
"..."
He considered visiting the Moon Holding Palace.
But after a second thought, that won't do!
If both the Sect Master and the three elders above him don't return, what if he can't come back either? Won't the Fire Virtue Sect be in complete chaos?
"Not good, not good!" He reassured himself and then sighed.
"The Sect Master and the others are Great Power Practitioners, they shouldn't encounter any accidents. Let's wait, they should return soon."
"..."
...
Inside the Moon Holding Palace, an unusual calm prevailed.
Outside, however, passion was rampant.
With the Golden Age unfolding, Heaven-Ordained Persons emerged one after another, vying for supremacy.
Almost every day, new news arrived.
Sometimes, a Heaven-Ordained Person suppressed a powerful force, or a faction was annihilated due to some reason.
Reading these messages, Lin Fan couldn't help but feel more solemn.
"I have a very unpleasant intuition."
"This year's crisis, I fear..."
"Will be even more shocking."
"Fortunately, this year, the Moon Holding Palace is also upgrading its forces."
"Although ordinary disciples remain at a low realm, Xiao Ling'er can already rival a Seventh Realm cultivator. Wang Teng's Artificial Sun Fist can easily defeat a Sixth Realm cultivator, and my true self can slay a Seventh Realm cultivator..."
"Additionally, there are seven Seventh Realm Great Power Practitioners among the external personnel, and none of them are weak."
"As long as there's no Eighth Realm cultivator, we can handle them all!"
Despite his concerns, thinking about the Moon Holding Palace's current strength, Lin Fan slightly relaxed.
"It's time to meet and get acquainted with the two of them."
That day, Lin Fan met with Cheng Guangshan and Luo Yu Shu.
Both gave him face and didn't show disdain despite Lin Fan's 'Fourth Realm' cultivation.
Their conversation was harmonious.
Night fell.
The array formation was set up.
It still couldn't block an Eighth Realm cultivator, but the formation covered one hundred and eight Spirit Mountains, making it more secure.
Moreover, this formation had an advantage: Seventh Realm and above cultivators could enhance the formation with their cultivation, making it more reliable. They only needed to enter the array core at a specific location.
After their conversation, the two made a Heavenly Dao Vow in front of Lin Fan.
The next day.
Lian Bo took the two to meet the 'Pill Master'.
When they saw Xiao Ling'er, they were dumbfounded upon learning she could guarantee Seventh Realm potent pills.
But...
Upon learning that she could also guarantee Fifth Realm potent pills, all shock and displeasure vanished.
Even Lian Sheng's old face seemed more pleasant now.
...
As the Moon Holding Palace developed, hidden undercurrents outside became more intense.
With the annual crisis approaching, Lin Fan was especially vigilant.
On this day, he contacted Liu Xun.
The latter, excited, rushed to the Moon Holding Palace and drank with Lin Fan.
The death of 'Second Master' Liu had indeed dealt him a significant blow, but his change wasn't just a fleeting passion. Some things, however, couldn't be altered.
For instance, he remained 'cleverly cunning'.
Drunk, Liu Xun stuck out his tongue, "Brother, good brother, I've reached the Ninth Level of the Fifth Realm!"
"You think I'm lying?"
Lin Fan: "..."
"Hmm..."
"Huh?!" Liu Xun was startled, "What did you say?"
"I didn't say anything, you misheard." Lin Fan spread his hands, "Actually, I called you here because I need your Liu Family's assistance."
"I estimate that in a few days, the Moon Holding Palace will face another crisis."
"What's that?"
Liu Xun shuddered, his drunkenness dissipating instantly, "Another one?!"
"If... if I remember correctly, you have one every year, right?!"
Moreover, he witnessed every crisis firsthand!
The first time was fine, aside from the 'Old Seven' from Yunxiao Valley and some Feather Race beasts, the others were mostly solitary cultivators, not very powerful. He and the Liu Family could easily handle them.
A few Fifth Realm cultivators could block them.
The second time, however, the difficulty skyrocketed, even 'Second Master' Liu couldn't withstand it!
By the third time, it became even more exaggerated.
A Seventh Realm Great Power cultivator was defeated!
"It's been less than a year, right?"
Damn it, another one? This time, how shocking, terrifying, and absurd will it be? Liu Xun's eyes held a hint of fear, "Brother, no, Uncle, I call you Uncle Lin, please tell me, is there news, do you know who the opponent is?"
"This crisis, will there be an Eighth Realm cultivator emerging?"
"If there's an Eighth Realm cultivator, our Liu Family can't withstand it."
"Even if we tie them all together, it won't be enough for an Eighth Realm cultivator to beat!"
"There shouldn't be an Eighth Realm cultivator."
Lin Fan estimated, "But I guess there'll be Fifth Realm cultivators above the Fifth Level, and not just one!"
"But rest assured, I don't intend for your Liu Family to be cannon fodder, nor do I expect you to fight to the death. As long as it's within our capabilities, we can handle it."
"If the situation is impossible, in a critical moment, the three elders of the Liu Family can escape on their own."
"What are you saying?"
Liu Xun frowned, "I'm apprehensive, not afraid, nor am I backing down."
"Actually, I just wanted to say that your Moon Holding Palace has been a little too 'unlucky' lately."
"If it were any other sect, they would have been wiped out by now!"
Lin Fan: "..."
He almost couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Damn, once a year, without fail, more punctual than a period!
And this was just a minor crisis.
If it were a major crisis that occurred once every ten years, or even once every hundred years...
That would surely drive people to their deaths!
"But now, we can't think that far ahead. Let's deal with the current problem first."
He sighed, "Liu Xun, Liu Shao, I know you are righteous, and I know the Liu Family values loyalty. But in many situations, it's not the time to risk everything."
"If we can fight, then we should give it our all."
"But if we know it's a losing battle, then fighting is irresponsible."
"In any case, when the time comes, ask the three elders of the Liu Family to come early and follow my arrangements. If I say it's impossible, then have them leave immediately."
Liu Xun was anxious and wanted to argue, but Lin Fan interrupted him, not even giving him a chance to speak.
"The Liu Family is currently in a period of rapid development.
"It's not the time to risk everything!"
"In this battle, regardless of victory or defeat, the Liu Family must not fall. I believe in the Liu Family, and I also believe that if our Moon Holding Palace is defeated or even destroyed, we can still rely on the Liu Family for support in the future, whether it's for rebuilding or protecting the disciples of the Moon Holding Palace, during this transformation, found himself in a unique situation. As he navigated the challenges, he discovered that his perception of his new identity and the accompanying experiences was evolving. Initially, the idea of a temporary gender transformation, even if it meant temporarily becoming a woman, was somewhat tolerable. The novelty of the experience even added a certain excitement.
However, as months passed and his body fully recovered, there was no sign of reverting to his original form. This realization left him utterly disoriented. The only thing keeping him going was the thought of finding Gu Yue Fangyuan and forcing that dog to change him back!
But now, with the news of Gu Yue Fangyuan's death, a wave of despair washed over him.
"How could you die, you bastard?! Ahhhh!" He roared in anguish.
His cries attracted several powerful Feather Clan members.
"Hey, have you seen this person?" They asked, producing a portrait.
Lin Fan's eyes widened. It was him, his pre-transformation self!
Damn! His expression twisted in anger. Normally, he would have unleashed his fury, slaughtering everything in sight. But now, he felt utterly disheartened, devoid of any desire to fight.
"Haven't seen." He mumbled, his voice weary.
Despite his recovery, the process of 'breaking and establishing' had pushed him further, elevating his strength. Yet, he struggled to even walk, each step an exhausting endeavor.
"You really haven't seen it?"
The powerful Feather Clan member frowned, still wanting to ask further.
Long Aotian turned his head back and glared at them viciously, "Get lost!"
These Feather Clan members were also afraid of Long Aotian, and immediately became cowardly, not daring to make a sound, and quietly slipped away.
Long Aotian's mind was in chaos, constantly pondering how to transform back into a man.
Suddenly.
She paused, her feet halting.
"Xiao Ling'er!"
"Her alchemy talent is very strong, and she has several unusual flames, as well as that dog day Fan Jian Gang!"
"Although their master and disciple pair are not as good as me, they still have some skills. Perhaps they have a way."
"Also!!!"
"At that time, Gu Yue Fangyuan took out two deceptive toads, one of which was a sex transformation toad that I, the Young Master, swallowed, and the other was in Liu Ming's hands!"
"If Liu Ming is still alive, and if that one is also a sex transformation toad..."
"Shouldn't I, the Young Master, still have a chance to transform back into a man?"
"Yes!"
"That's right!"
"There's a chance, there's definitely a chance!"
She happily bounced around.
The great principle in front of her chest surged.
"Liu Ming, you'd better not be dead, you motherfucker."
But soon after, Long Aotian's heart sank again.
In that battle, he barely escaped with his life, desperately fleeing, while Gu Yue directly died. Could Liu Ming... also be dead?
"I don't believe it. I must immediately confirm his whereabouts."
"It's a pity I don't have Liu Ming's communication talisman. Although Liu Ming and Xiao Ling'er are close, and Xiao Ling'er is Fan Jian Gang's senior disciple, I should be able to find out Liu Ming's whereabouts through Fan Jian Gang."
She took out Fan Jian Gang's communication talisman and was about to make contact when she suddenly paused.
"No."
Her voice, crisp and feminine, with a touch of cuteness and a hint of allure, made her almost want to crush her own throat.
This voice, if it belonged to another beauty, and that beauty was leaning against him, whispering sweet nothings, it would be wonderful, enough to make his bones melt.
But hearing this voice coming from his own mouth, it was driving him to the brink of collapse.
"Transformation."
"Yes, I know the transformation technique."
"Before, my injuries were too severe to use my arts and secret techniques, but now..."
She took a deep breath.
Finally, she was no longer in a state of panic.
After a moment, Long Aotian returned.
She...
Or rather, he looked at himself in the water mirror technique, his face contorted into a smile that was uglier than crying.
Me, Long Aotian, actually needs to pretend to be myself?
"Damn that Gu Yue!"
He immediately contacted Fan Jian Gang.
And deliberately recalled his previous tone and manner of speech, not revealing any difference: "You idiot, are you still alive?"
"Oh? Young Master Long?" Fan Jian Gang quickly responded.
Long Aotian was slightly surprised: "What do you mean? Do you know something?"
"I don't know anything, but aren't you being hunted down by the Feather Clan? I thought you were dead after such a long time without contact, but I didn't expect you to still be alive. Alas."
"Good people don't live long, while evil lives for a thousand years."
Damn it!
Why did that bastard Gu Yue die so early?
Long Aotian cursed inwardly, but said, "If you're still alive, then my master sister should be too, but if you have any ideas about her, I'll be the first to disagree."
"Let me show you my endless killing."
Thinking of Fan Jian Gang's straw dummy, Long Aotian felt a headache coming on, but fortunately, his current goal was not to kill, and he didn't want to take action.
"I'm not that pathetic yet, to bully a weak woman."
"Her? She's not even worthy of being my opponent. If she's willing to serve me as a slave, then maybe..."
Long Aotian felt particularly guilty as he spoke these words.
Still a slave?
If she's willing, I don't have that ability!
Damn it!
"Then what's your request?" Fan Jian Gang's eyes shifted: "Are you asking for her help in alchemy?"
"That's not..."
He initially wanted to deny it, but after a second thought, he couldn't be sure, so he changed his words: "I want to ask her, can she contact Liu Ming?"
"So, Liu Ming should still be alive?"
Long Aotian was nervous.
"..."
"Why aren't you responding?"
"Be careful, or I'll kill you!"
"Kill me? If you have the ability, come and try. What's the matter? I'm busy dealing with the attackers at Moonseizing Sect."
"You wait first."
"..."
Fan Jian Gang spoke rapidly, and after finishing, he unilaterally cut off the communication.
Long Aotian: "???"
"Someone is attacking the Moonseizing Sect?"
She muttered, and suddenly, her whole body trembled.
"The Moonseizing Sect is being attacked???"
"If they succeed, if Xiao Ling'er is killed by them, if..."
"I'll kill you all!"
"I'll fight you to the death!"
At this moment, Long Aotian was furious.
Currently, he only had two options.
But you want to destroy my hopes?
In your dreams!!!
He immediately tore through space, identified the location, and rushed towards the Moonseizing Sect at the fastest speed.
...
Meanwhile, at the Moonseizing Sect.
The sudden battle startled everyone except Lin Fan.
But...
It was only a momentary shock.
The Guardian Sect Array lit up, blocking the terrifying offensive.
Lian Bo, Cheng Guang Shan, and Luo Yu Shu, residing in three different array eyes, trembled all over, but with their support, the array managed to hold on!
