Chapter 309: Finally Taking Down the Moonlight Sect! Rename? Sure! (Part 1)

"How, how is this possible?!"

Yan Lie and the others' faces turned ashen.

Their hands even began to tremble.

They couldn't understand how this could be! Their side clearly had an advantage as vast as the sky, and they were just about to succeed in annihilating the Moonlight Sect!

To put it in another way, it's as if they had already subdued their opponent, stripped them naked, and were about to finish the job, but then... suddenly, someone jumped out and knocked them off course.

And then, a whole bunch of burly men appeared, each holding something bigger than ours, aimed right at us.

Even the rear was blocked by these burly men!

This...

No, is there anything more fcked up than this in this world?!"

"Damn it!"

Chen Mengzhu's face darkened with anger, and he said, "Lin Fan, our three sects have no grudges with you and the Moon Holding Sect. Why are you plotting against us?"

"Moreover, your Moon Holding Sect and the Moonlight Sect are sworn enemies. By doing this, we are helping you take revenge on the Moonlight Sect. You don't appreciate it, and that's fine, but you bring so many people here to attack us?"

"Isn't this a betrayal of trust and repaying kindness with enmity?"

"Plotting?"

"What plotting?"

"Betraying trust and repaying kindness with enmity."

Lin Fan shook his head and said with a displeased face, "Don't talk nonsense, and don't randomly accuse me. I don't like all this messy stuff."

"It's still plotting!"

Chen Mengzhu was furious, "If it wasn't a plot, how could your people have been lying in ambush here so early?"

"The Spirit Sword Sect, Beast Taming Sect, Taihe Palace, and even the Hai Family from the Northeastern Domain..."

"You dare to do it, but you don't dare to admit it?"

"Nonsense."

Lin Fan rolled his eyes and said, "They were indeed invited by me, but who said it was to plot against you?"

"I only heard that you were going to annihilate the Moonlight Sect, so I called some helpers to take a look. If there was a chance, I'd add fuel to the fire and completely destroy the Moonlight Sect."

"What does that have to do with you?"

Upon hearing this, the people from the Moonlight Sect: "(⊙o⊙)..."

You, you...

In an instant, everyone broke out in cold sweat.

Damn it, so if we don't agree, there's absolutely no way out, right? Even if Ji Zongzhu successfully breaks through and the Divine Armament descends, there's only a dead end!

At the same time, Lin Fan's words silenced everyone from the three sects.

The loose cultivators were also stunned, their brains buzzing.

So...

Damn it, are we loose cultivators just pawns in your play?

Chen Mengzhu was almost laughed off by this.

"Good, good, you're truly as timid as a mouse, daring to act but not daring to admit it!"

"That sounds nice, but if it's not a plot against the three sects, then why have you brought people to surround us and cut off our retreat?"

"Could it be...?"

"We're the ones who are the Moonlight Sect?"

"What a joke!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, look at you."

Lin Fan sighed, "You're too impatient; I haven't finished speaking yet!"

"Originally, I did plan to take advantage of the opportunity to get rid of the Moonlight Sect once and for all, but then..."

"However..."

"Plans can't keep up with changes."

"Who would've thought that the Moonlight Sect would suddenly have a change of heart, decide to endure the pain and correct their past mistakes... In short, the Moonlight Sect suddenly had an epiphany and begged to join the Moon Holding Sect, becoming a part of it."

"They've already sworn their Dao Heart Oath, and now, there's no more Moonlight Sect, only the Moon Holding Sect's Moonlight Branch."

"I think it's great."

"Moon Holding... Embracing the Moonlight into our embrace."

"It's quite fitting, isn't it?"

"In other words, if you want to annihilate our Moon Holding Sect's Moonlight Branch, how can I not stand up for them? So, I brought people here for a legitimate defense and counter-attack. Where's the conspiracy and betrayal of trust?"

"This is clearly just and righteous!"

"That's right, and regarding this matter, didn't my disciple mention it earlier?"

"How is it, Chen Mengzhu? Are your ears not working, or is your brain not functioning?"

"Nonsense, are you joking?"

Chen Mengzhu almost couldn't help but curse, "The enmity between the Moon Holding Sect and the Moonlight Sect has lasted for over ten thousand years, and both sides could be said to be locked in an endless feud."

"Moreover, I don't believe you're unaware that the Moon Holding Sect's decline is all due to the Moonlight Sect."

"Who doesn't know about your enmity?"

"In such a situation, how could you possibly shake hands and make peace, even merging into one and becoming the same sect?"

"You, a Moon Holding Sect, what qualifications or abilities do you have to make the Moonlight Sect give up its hatred, put aside its pride, and bow down to you, recognizing you as their master?"

"There's absolutely no such possibility!"

"If you want to deceive me with your nonsense, you're still a million years too young!"

"Huh?"

Lin Fan smiled, "What qualifications and abilities does the Moon Holding Sect have that I need to tell you about? Who are you to question me? You're just a few years older, that's all."

"I'm giving you face by calling you Chen Mengzhu. If I don't give you face, who are you?"

"Do you have the right to question me?"

"I'm explaining this to make it clear to the world that the Moon Holding Sect is upright and just, and everything we did was legitimate defense. Even if we annihilated your three sects, no one can find fault with us."

"Do you really think I'm wasting so many words just to argue with you?"

Lin Fan really wanted to laugh.

This old man, acting all high and mighty, did he really think he could manipulate me so easily by casually throwing around accusations?

Isn't this a joke? Playing the blame game, manipulating public opinion, and engaging in verbal warfare? I, a transmigrator, should be afraid of these things?

Moreover...

Does he want me to prove myself?

Lin Fan was very clear about everything that was going on.

As soon as one follows the train of thought and words of these old guys, it's easy to fall into the trap of self-validation. If one cares about these things, it will inevitably lead to a series of subsequent troubles.

Therefore, the best way to deal with this self-validation trap is to completely ignore it. Either turn the tables and point out the other party's faults, letting them 'self-validate'.

But these words are also a skill.

The requirement is nine truths and one lie. Nine true statements with one falsehood mixed in can play the other party like a fool.

Another method is like what Lin Fan is doing right now.

You want me to self-validate?

Sorry...

I'll just flip the table!

Chen Mengzhu was instantly enraged, his mouth twisting as he pointed at Lin Fan, "Fine, fine, fine! How dare the younger generation act so arrogantly these days? They have no respect for their elders and don't understand the importance of honoring seniors."

"Since that's the case, since that's the case..."

"Don't put on a show over there." Lin Fan showed no mercy, chuckling disdainfully, "It's just a delay tactic, isn't it obvious to everyone?"

Chen Mengzhu and Yan Lie's faces turned pale in an instant.

Were they found out?!

But...

That's not right.

They were surprised and puzzled. If they knew we were stalling for time, why aren't they taking action?!

"Is that strange?"

Lin Fan's smile was radiant, his teeth white, "Why do you know you're stalling for time but still not take action?"

"..."

Although Yan Lie had a fiery temper, he was also a person who could be both rough and meticulous. He was the first to react, "That's not right! You... are also stalling for time?!"

"You got it right."

Lin Fan spread his hands, "But there's no reward."

"Oh no!"

Yan Lie was terrified, "We must leave at all costs, now!"

"Run as much as you can!"

He didn't know what Lin Fan was waiting for, but he was very clear about what he was waiting for.

Moreover...

Lin Fan's side already had far more power than their own, and even so, they were still waiting. In other words, no matter what they were waiting for, the result they wanted was to take down everyone on their side with minimal casualties.

In other words...

The other party had a backup plan, perhaps another Ninth Realm expert or some other force.

But no matter which it was, it was a disaster for their side.

They couldn't afford to delay any longer.

"Damn it!"

"Run!!!"

Their hearts were bleeding, but at this moment, they couldn't afford to hesitate. They immediately used their trump card.

"Reverse Transmission Array!"

Boom! Suddenly, a peculiar light shone.

Most of the people from the three sects were instantly enveloped by the array's glow.

"Hmm?!"

"Mystic Ice Dragon Soaring!"

Hai Dongpo's eyebrows furrowed, and he made his move at the first opportunity, but...

He was still a step too late.

The ice dragon soared through the sky!

Even the void was frozen, but Yan Lie and the others had already disappeared without a trace.

Only a small portion of the three sects' forces remained, their faces pale, and... panic-stricken, with loose cultivators cursing furiously.

"Damn it, they escaped!"

"How... how could they?!"

"They're so shameless!"

"Damn it, we were invited here to help them, and they ran off?!"

"Reverse Transmission Array! Using themselves as the array's foundation, once activated, they become the transmission array. But it's said that this method consumes a lot of resources, so few people use it. I never thought they'd be so well-prepared."

"It's not... three sects against one, a three-to-one advantage, and yet they're still so cowardly, even preparing a Reverse Transmission Array!"

"They ran, so what do we do now?!"

"Damn it, they truly deserve to die!"

The loose cultivators were almost in tears.

Damn...

The battle situation changed in an instant. In a flash, they went from an absolute advantage to an absolute disadvantage, and at this moment, even escaping seemed hopeless.

They had initially thought that as long as the people from the three sects were still there, if they really fought, they might still have a chance to escape.

But now...

Escape? That's a joke.

What should we do now?

Take action?

That's just asking to die.

Not taking action...

How can we survive?

They were extremely anxious, and at the same time, someone took immediate action, "Hey, everyone, if I say, I mean, if I say, if I was forced by them..."

"Can you spare my life?"

The others listened...

That's right!

Although these words were amusing and insulting to their intelligence, at the end of the day, it was still an opportunity.

What if...?

What if it succeeds?

With this in mind, they spoke up one after another.

"Yes, fellow cultivators, we were forced to do this."

"They forced me, damn it!"

"I was forced by the Shadow Demon Palace, my daughter is in their hands."

"I was forced by that old bastard Yan Lie, he..."

"..."

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes, "So, you... are treating us like idiots?"

"Kill them."

Lin Fan shook his head, looking down on these people.

In terms of strength...

They still had some ability.

But with no principles, these people were useless.

Hearing this, the crowd was ready to take action.

"Hold on, hold on!"

One of them quickly shouted, looking at Qu Fei Si, who had already raised his hand, ready to summon countless spirit beasts, "Qu Sect Master, do you remember? I even invited you to dinner once."

Qu Fei Si: "..."

What nonsense!

The raised right hand slowly lowered.

"Roar!"

The spirit beasts roared and charged forward.

"Fight!"

The remaining Eighth Realm experts from the three sects roared.

Compared to the loose cultivators who still had some 'hope', they knew there was no way out for them. Their opponents would never let them go.

Since that was the case, they had no choice but to fight! But...

With such a huge gap in strength, everything was futile.

Action: Chapter 12 - The Great Plan

Even before the others could react, Qu Fei Si single-handedly swept away the terrifying beast tide, including nearly a hundred Eighth Realm powerhouses.

Moreover...

They were all eliminated in a short time, leaving no traces.

Among them, there were even five at the peak of the Eighth Realm.

"Thank you all for your trouble."

Lin Fan bowed to Qu Fei Si, Qian Yinyang, Rao Zhi Rou, Hai Dongpo, and the others, expressing his gratitude, "I will repay you all later."

"Lin Zongzhu, you're too kind," Qian Yinyang laughed heartily, "We didn't do much; we just stood here to show support. I almost forgot to congratulate you, Lin Zongzhu. The Moon Holding Sect has become even more powerful!"

"Moon Holding Sect, Moon Holding Sect."

Rao Zhi Rou sighed, "At the beginning, it was because of this name that we had a dispute with the Moonlight Sect. But who would've thought that after so many years, the Moon Holding Sect has indeed embraced the moonlight."

"Congratulations, Lin Zongzhu."

She originally wanted to warn Lin Fan to be cautious. After all, the Moonlight Sect has been around for so many years, and it's definitely not simple. He shouldn't underestimate them.

But after a second thought...

Lin Fan wasn't a fool. Since he dared to do this, he must have his reasons! Saying those words would only make him think that she considered him a 'moron'.

So, she just congratulated him.

"Actually, I'm also quite amazed."

Lin Fan shook his head and smiled.

He still remembered when he first crossed over...

He had considered this problem.

After learning that the Moon Holding Sect had a mortal enemy in the Moonlight Sect, he thought...

If the moonlight shines in the sky, why not embrace the moon? But he never imagined that after ten years...

He had truly 'embraced' the Moonlight Sect.

It could only be said...

The world is truly marvelous.

After all, just about a year ago, he had never considered such an outcome, not even in his wildest dreams! At most, he pondered that since Lu Ming's identity had been discovered by them and he was now in a high position, he was invincible!

Solving the issue with the Moonlight Sect was definitely not a problem!

But who could've imagined that after such a short time, his undercover mission had turned him into the leader!

However...

Lin Fan didn't let his guard down. After all, Ji Haoyue was still alive.

If he successfully broke through and returned...

He would still need to deal with him properly.

Kill him?

It wasn't impossible, but compared to that...

Wouldn't it be better to 'PUA' him and make him his own henchman?

Hmm...

He needed a good plan.

"Lin Zongzhu," Qu Fei Si smiled, "There are many small fries around, and the Moonlight Sect's protective array is malfunctioning. Let's stay and help for a while. After the array is fixed, we'll leave."

"That's naturally the best," Lin Fan responded with a smile.

Qian Yinyang's heart sank upon seeing this.

Qu Fei Si, this old guy, was always trying to steal the spotlight!

He couldn't fall behind! Qian Yinyang stepped forward and said, "Those small fries are sneaking around, and it's disgusting. Lin Zongzhu, let me take some people to get rid of them?"

"No rush, no rush," Lin Fan smiled and looked towards He An Xia, who had already arrived nearby, and asked, "How's it going?"

"Master," He An Xia showed a smile, "Those small fries can be dealt with at any time."

"But..."

"The three sects' escapees, it's unlikely they'll be effective in a short time."

Lin Fan was indeed stalling for time.

But it wasn't to wait for other helpers; instead...

He wanted He An Xia to unleash his full power! Lin Fan even gave him an idea.

Don't rush to kill them.

With so many Eighth Realm peak experts, He An Xia couldn't eliminate them all right now.

So...

First, plant a bomb! First, plant various bacteria and viruses into their bodies, letting them incubate and nurture the bacteria and viruses with their 'nutrients'! As the bacteria and viruses grow and mutate, they can be 'detonated' at a critical moment!

So...

Even if they escaped, Lin Fan wasn't worried.

Everything was going according to plan.

As for wiping them out here, that was a bit too much to hope for.

They weren't fools, and they would definitely have a backup plan, like a reverse teleportation array.

So...

There was no need to rush.

As for the subsequent changes...

Lin Fan didn't believe that the growth of the Blazing Sun Divine Palace and other forces would surpass that of the Moon Holding Sect and their own protagonist templates.

In other words, the longer it dragged on, the more advantageous it was for them.

So, why rush?

After a moment's thought, Lin Fan said, "Don't rush to take action. Let them spread the news and distance themselves. When they can no longer provide any help, then..."

"Yes, Master!"

"Get lost, all of you!" At this moment, Wang Teng soared into the sky, intimidating the small fries and 'spies' around.

"Or else, die!"

His domineering aura caused the small fries to pale, and with the Moonlight Sect now stable, staying any longer wouldn't yield any more gains. They stopped insisting and retreated one after another.

Lin Fan nodded in satisfaction.

"Let's go in."

Lin Fan, along with his direct disciples and Long Ao Jiao, entered the Moonlight Sect!

Inside the Moonlight Sect.

Aside from the elders repairing the array, the remaining elders and disciples stood in order on several spiritual mountains, welcoming...

But at this moment, everyone's gaze was complex.

As the Sect Master, Lu Ming stood at the forefront.

However, at this moment, Lu Ming still looked weak and dispirited, and even his upper body, which hadn't been fully repaired, appeared pitiful.
