Chapter 98 Remember, You Must Say What You Can Do

At this moment, Lin Fan was uncertain about the situation on site. The rhythm was off.

Ye Shaotian had been crippled for three years, suffering bitterly. Logically, Feng Bujue should have been arrogant and tyrannical, committing all kinds of evil. But looking at the current situation, it seemed the opposite.

Unscientific, very unscientific.

Lin Fan continued observing without changing his expression. He wanted to see how this matter would be resolved. In Lin Fan's view, Feng Bujue was somewhat pitiable—his cultivation was at the late innate stage, just one step away from the Great Perfection, making him a top existence among the outer disciples.

And Ye Shaotian's cultivation was also at the late innate stage, yet he defeated Feng Bujue in just three moves. Clearly, this was no simple feat.

"Feng Bujue, you should fulfill what you said earlier: the loser gets out of the Sacred Sect. I, Ye Shaotian, disdain fighting you, because in my eyes, you're nothing but an ant." Ye Shaotian's aura was overbearing, a disdainful smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

Feng Bujue's face was pale, with a trace of blood still at the corner of his mouth. Hearing these words, his mind shook violently, and his eyes suddenly became dazed.

Leave the Sacred Sect?

Thinking back to the hardships he endured to join the Sacred Sect, and now, because of a reckless bet, he had to leave this place he yearned for. Feng Bujue felt unwilling.

Ye Shaotian looked at Feng Bujue's ghastly face and laughed. "Don't say I'm bullying a fellow disciple without giving you a chance. Kneel and admit your mistake, and I, Ye Shaotian, won't stoop to your level. I'll let a waste like you stay in the outer sect. How about that?"

"Ye Shaotian, don't go too far!" Feng Bujue roared in anger. A true man stands tall and firm; making him kneel was nothing but a pipe dream.

"Brother Ye, why bother talking to him? Letting him kneel and apologize is already a mercy, but he doesn't know what's good for him, wasting your kindness." Ruo Mengyu said softly.

The outer disciples gathered around watched the spectacle. They had no right to meddle in such high-level conflicts.

Some were still afraid of Ye Shaotian. After all, over the past three years, they had not spared their sarcasm. Now that his cultivation had recovered and he shone again, if he sought revenge, it would truly be a tragedy.

Ye Shaotian smiled lightly. "In that case, you can leave the Sacred Sect."

Ye Shaotian's aura was imposing, a smile always hanging on his lips, as if this matter was just something he did on a whim to pass the time.

In Ye Shaotian's eyes, Feng Bujue wasn't even worth his attention. The top ten geniuses of the outer sect? In his eyes, they were utterly fragile.

The outer sect was, after all, just the outer sect. Only the inner sect was the core of the sect.

Feng Bujue clenched his fists, his teeth grinding, his expression full of reluctance. "Fine, I'll go."

The moment he said these words, Feng Bujue's body trembled violently. This was the outer sect. Though he had worked hard to become one of the top ten genius disciples, in some people's eyes, it meant nothing.

Lin Fan watched the situation and shook his head helplessly. Truly, a major sect was a major sect.

Such a situation would never happen in the Holy Demon Sect.

In Lin Fan's view, Feng Bujue was somewhat pitiful. In that instant, his figure seemed to age many years, exuding an indescribable desolation.

"Then why aren't you scramming?" Ye Shaotian said with a faint smile.

...

"Sigh..." Just then, a sigh came from the crowd.

"Born of the same root, why rush to destroy each other? Young man, don't blame your uncle for saying this, but your behavior is a bit excessive." Lin Fan shook his head and sighed, looking pained.

Ye Shaotian frowned, looking at Lin Fan. Who was this guy? Where did he come from?

Feng Bujue, who was about to leave reluctantly, stopped and looked at the speaker.

"Who are you?" Ye Shaotian demanded sternly.

"I am your uncle. Young man, don't be so hot-tempered. Although you have a junior sister by your side, she does have a few uncomfortable days each month. So in dealing with people and matters, you need to learn to be calm." Lin Fan felt somewhat disappointed with the new generation of Sacred Sect disciples.

This temper was way too fierce.

"You..." Ye Shaotian understood exactly what the other meant. As for being an uncle, that was complete nonsense.

At this moment, Lin Fan ignored Ye Shaotian and looked intently at Feng Bujue. "Do you want to leave the Sacred Sect?"

Feng Bujue looked at Lin Fan. Though he didn't know who this person was, he really didn't want to leave the Sacred Sect. He shook his head. "No."

"Well, but a real man keeps his word. Since you lost, you must honor your promise. Otherwise, not only will others look down on you, but you might even despise yourself." Lin Fan said calmly.

Feng Bujue was stunned, staring blankly at Lin Fan. He couldn't react for a moment. According to his thinking, this person should be mediating, but who would have thought he was also here to make him leave the sect?

Ye Shaotian, who had been on the verge of anger, now snorted coldly. At least you know what's good for you.

"I will withdraw from the sect and leave this place." Feng Bujue said hoarsely.

Lin Fan smiled slightly. "Good. Then are you willing to join my sect?"

Feng Bujue, dejected and disheartened, was taken aback, looking at Lin Fan in astonishment, not understanding what he meant.

Lin Fan looked at Feng Bujue's puzzled face and said with a faint smile, "The Holy Demon Sect on Nameless Peak. Are you willing to join my Holy Demon Sect?"

At this moment, the surrounding outer disciples were all startled, then began whispering among themselves.

"So this is the one who received the peak granted by the Sect Leader."

"I didn't expect the one who got the peak from the Sect Leader to be him."

"Now that Feng Bujue is withdrawing from the sect but joining the Holy Demon Sect, doesn't that mean he's still staying in the Sacred Sect?"

"This guy is going to offend Ye Shaotian for Feng Bujue."

...

Ye Shaotian had been in seclusion all this time and didn't know about this. Ruo Mengyu whispered to him, and he nodded from time to time.

"Are you willing?" Lin Fan asked.

Feng Bujue's mind was still reeling. He hadn't expected that the person before him was the one rumored to have been granted a peak by the Sect Leader.

This matter was no secret within the sect. The Sect Leader had made it clear: disciples of the Holy Demon Sect on Nameless Peak would enjoy the same treatment as the sect's own disciples.

"Disciple Feng Bujue pays respects to the Sect Leader." Quick as lightning, Feng Bujue knelt without hesitation and joined the Holy Demon Sect.

This speed was unprecedented, without a moment's hesitation.

Lin Fan was very gratified. He hadn't expected his sect's first disciple to have such insight. From now on, there was no worry about the sect not flourishing.

"Good. Then follow me back to the sect to have a look. I also have some matters that need your help." Lin Fan was delighted inside.

He had fooled another capable hand. The weeding team had gained another strong and powerful reinforcement.

"Stop right there." At that moment, Ye Shaotian spoke up.

Was this guy courting death? I, Ye Shaotian, wanted him gone, and yet someone dared to keep him.

So what if he was granted a peak by the Sect Leader? It was just a favor to a former branch sect, nothing important.
