Chapter 80: The Great Chaos Approaches

“Senior Brother, do you think the Sect Master believed me?” After being dismissed by the Sect Master with a single sentence, Lin Fan looked somewhat helplessly at Senior Brother Meng.

Meng Yangquan’s heart was unsettled at this moment, filled with anxiety over the impending crisis.

“He believed you,” Meng Yangquan nodded.

“Then why didn’t the Sect Master discuss what to do next? After all, only by uniting can we survive this dangerous period,” Lin Fan said.

The Sect Master really doesn’t know how to unite, always thinking about acting alone. Unity is strength.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked at Senior Brother Meng with confusion, unsure of what he was about to say.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it’s useless. This time, many sects are attacking the Holy Demon Sect, and they’re likely sending experts at the Divine Transformation realm or above. Outer disciples, even inner disciples at the Innate realm, are useless. No matter how many there are, they’re just cannon fodder. The gap between realms is like heaven and earth. Unity won’t help,” Meng Yangquan said with concern.

In terms of individual sect strength, the Holy Demon Sect is undoubtedly more powerful than most sects.

But if many sects unite, it’s likely to crumble.

“How could that be?” Although Lin Fan had been in this world for a long time, he hadn’t truly understood it.

A Divine Transformation realm expert can sweep through hundreds, even thousands of Innate realm experts.

This is a qualitative change in realms. Numbers alone are useless.

When Lin Fan was at the Innate realm, he once tried to kill Mo Yixuan, who was in a dazed state, but couldn’t even break through his physical body.

This is the gap between realms.

If you really want to bridge it, you’d need a Profound-tier weapon.

“The Sect Master will probably notify the entire sect soon,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, how can that be? If there’s a traitor among us, wouldn’t Emperor Yan and the others find out?” Lin Fan said.

Meng Yangquan shook his head, “It doesn’t matter whether they know or not. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Holy Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there’ll be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come back when we’re stronger,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

If you can’t win, hide. If you can win, fight. Why be so inflexible?

Meng Yangquan’s expression turned serious, “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s legacy cannot be abandoned. Remember, this world is one of survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worry on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious.

“I’ve been an inner disciple since I was two, raised by the sect. If the sect lives, I live. If the sect falls, I fall. I will stand with the sect to the end,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering conviction.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, unsure of what to say.

At that moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating him.

Just as Senior Brother Meng had said, the Sect Master ordered all disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave the sect.

When the news broke, all the disciples were stunned, feeling as if the sect was abandoning them.

But when they learned that the Holy Demon Sect was about to be attacked by numerous sects, everyone fell silent.

Some disciples below the Divine Transformation realm quietly returned to their quarters to pack their belongings, while others refused to leave, determined to stand with the sect to the end.

“Senior Brother Ni, Senior Brother Yin, what will you do?” Lin Fan asked.

Yin Mochen shook his head, “Where would I go if I left? The Holy Demon Sect has long been my home. I’ll stay and fight to the last drop of blood.”

“If Senior Brother Meng isn’t leaving, I won’t either. Since I joined the sect, Senior Brother Meng has always guided me. I’ll stay by his side and protect him to the end,” Ni Mingyang said.

“Junior Brother Lin, you should go. Bringing this news to the sect is already a great contribution. There’s no need to throw your life away here,” Ni Mingyang said.

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment. To leave or stay? Everyone only has one life. Is he afraid of death? Naturally, Lin Fan is afraid.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t either,” Lin Fan said with determination.

“Junior Brother, you should go. We’re staying because we have things we care about here. You haven’t been in the sect for long. Even if you leave, we won’t blame you. We want you to live,” Ni Mingyang said.

If the sects really attack the Holy Demon Sect this time, those who stay will likely face certain death.

Not even a sliver of hope remains.

“Enough said. If I die, so be it. If I live, I’ll live on. Since ancient times, who hasn’t died? It’s just a matter of sooner or later. Besides, there’s no need to be so pessimistic. Maybe the Sect Master can turn the tide,” Lin Fan said.

Lin Fan is a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understands that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave is also giving them an honorable way out. After all, if the sect is in trouble and all the disciples flee, it would tarnish the sect’s reputation. So, the Sect Master’s order allows these disciples to leave with dignity.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their unspoken words conveyed in that gesture.

Qingxin Pavilion.

“Junior Sister Mu, you should leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said, his eyes soft yet filled with reluctance.

Now that the sect was facing a calamity, he couldn’t keep Junior Sister by his side. He had no time to spare and could only let her leave to preserve her life.

“Senior Brother, you don’t really believe him, do you? This is all just unnecessary worry. Senior Brother, let’s go out and see the mountains and rivers. Maybe you’ll feel differently,” Mu Chenyu said, while secretly resenting Lin Fan.

“Junior Sister, don’t be foolish. Leave the sect. If I survive, I’ll come find you,” Meng Yangquan said. He and Mu Chenyu had known each other for a long time.

The first time he accidentally saw Mu Chenyu in the outer sect, he began to take notice of this junior sister. Later, Meng Yangquan left the inner sect and came to the outer sect, thinking it would take some time to find her. But one day, she appeared behind him and asked him a question.

That was the beginning, and now, today might be the end.

“Senior Brother, if you’re not leaving, I won’t either,” Mu Chenyu shook her head.

“Get out!” Meng Yangquan’s expression suddenly changed, his face twisted with anger and ferocity.

Mu Chenyu was stunned, frightened by his sudden transformation.

“Senior Brother, what… what did you say?” Mu Chenyu looked at him in disbelief.

“I said get out.”

At this moment, Meng Yangquan was far from calm. He was filled with anxiety about the impending crisis.

“He believed you,” Meng Yangquan nodded.

“Then why didn’t the Sect Leader say anything about what to do next? After all, only by uniting can we survive this dangerous period,” Lin Fan said.

The Sect Leader was simply too poor at fostering unity. Always thinking about going solo—teamwork makes the dream work!

“Senior Brother, do you think the Sect Master believed me?” After being dismissed by the Sect Master with a single sentence, Lin Fan looked somewhat helplessly at Senior Brother Meng.

Meng Yangquan’s heart was anything but calm at this moment. He was filled with anxiety over the impending crisis.

“He believed you,” Meng Yangquan nodded.

“Then why didn’t the Sect Master discuss what to do next? After all, only by uniting can we get through this dangerous period,” Lin Fan said.

The Sect Master really doesn’t know how to unite people. Always thinking of acting alone, when unity is where the real strength lies.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked at Senior Brother Meng with confusion, unsure of what he was about to say.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it won’t make a difference. This time, many sects are attacking the Holy Demon Sect, and they are likely sending experts at the Divine Transformation realm or above. Outer disciples, even those at the Innate realm among the inner disciples, are useless. No matter how many there are, they would just be cannon fodder. The gap between major realms is like heaven and earth; unity alone won’t help,” Meng Yangquan said with worry.

In terms of individual sect strength, the Holy Demon Sect is undoubtedly more powerful than most sects.

But if many sects unite, it would likely crumble like a house of cards.

“How could that be?” Although Lin Fan had been in this world for a long time, he hadn’t truly understood it.

A single expert at the Divine Transformation realm could sweep through hundreds, even thousands of Innate realm experts.

This is a qualitative change in major realms; sheer numbers are useless.

When Lin Fan was at the Innate realm, he once tried to kill Mo Yixuan, who was in a dazed state, but couldn’t even break through his physical body.

This is the gap between realms.

If one really wants to bridge it, only a Profound-tier weapon would suffice.

“The Sect Master will probably notify the entire sect soon,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, how can that be? If there are spies among us, wouldn’t the news reach Emperor Yan and the others?” Lin Fan said.

Meng Yangquan shook his head, “Whether they know or not doesn’t matter. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Holy Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come back stronger later,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

If you can’t win, hide; if you can win, fight. Why be so inflexible?

At this moment, Meng Yangquan’s expression turned grave, “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s legacy cannot be abandoned. Remember, this world is about the survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worried look on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious as well.

“I am an inner disciple, taken in by the sect at the age of two. If the sect lives, I live; if the sect perishes, I perish. I will stand with the sect to the end,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering conviction.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, unsure of what to say.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating him.

“Senior Brother Ni, Senior Brother Yin, what will you do?” Lin Fan asked.

Yin Mochen shook his head, “Where would I go if I left? I’ve long considered the Holy Demon Sect my home. I will stay and fight to the last drop of blood.”

“If Senior Brother Meng isn’t leaving, I won’t leave either. Since I joined the sect, Senior Brother Meng has always guided me. I will stay by his side and protect him to the end,” Ni Mingyang said.

“Junior Brother Lin, you should leave. Bringing this news to the sect is already a great merit. There’s no need to throw your life away here,” Ni Mingyang said.

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment. To leave or stay—each person only has one life. Was he afraid of death? Naturally, Lin Fan was afraid.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t leave either,” Lin Fan said with determination.

“Junior Brother, you should go. We have things here that we can’t let go of, which is why we don’t want to leave. But you haven’t been in the sect for long. Even if you leave, we won’t blame you. We want you to live,” Ni Mingyang said.

If the sects really attack the Holy Demon Sect this time, those who stay will likely face certain death.

Not even a glimmer of hope remains.

“Enough said. If I die, so be it; if I live, I’ll live for ten thousand years. Since ancient times, who hasn’t died? It’s just a matter of sooner or later. Besides, there’s no need to be so pessimistic. Perhaps the Sect Master can turn the tide,” Lin Fan said.

Lin Fan was a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understood that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave was also giving them a way out. After all, when the sect is in trouble, if all the disciples flee, it would tarnish the sect’s reputation. So, the Sect Master’s order made it seem justified and honorable for them to leave.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their unspoken words conveyed through that gesture.

“Junior Sister Mu, you should leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said, his eyes soft yet filled with reluctance as he looked at Mu Chenyu.

“Senior Brother, you don’t really believe him, do you? This is all just unnecessary worry. Senior Brother, let’s go out and see the mountains and rivers together. Maybe you’ll have a different perspective,” Mu Chenyu said, while secretly resenting Lin Fan.

“Junior Sister, stop fooling around. Leave the sect. If I survive, I’ll come find you,” Meng Yangquan said. He and Mu Chenyu had known each other for a long time.

The first time he accidentally saw Mu Chenyu among the outer disciples, he began to take notice of her. Later, Meng Yangquan left the inner sect and joined the outer sect, thinking it would take him a while to find her. But one day, she appeared behind him and asked him a question.

“Get out!” At this moment, Meng Yangquan’s expression changed, his face twisted with anger and ferocity as he shouted.

Mu Chenyu was stunned, frightened by Meng Yangquan’s sudden change.

“Senior Brother, you… what did you say?” Mu Chenyu looked at Meng Yangquan in disbelief.

“I said get out.”

“Senior Brother, do you think the Sect Master believed what I said?” After being dismissed by the Sect Master with a single sentence, Lin Fan looked somewhat helplessly at Senior Brother Meng.

Outer disciples, even those at the Innate realm among the inner disciples, are useless. No matter how many there are, they would just be cannon fodder. The gap between major realms is like heaven and earth; unity alone won’t help,” Meng Yangquan said with concern.

Mu Chenyu was stunned, frightened by Meng Yangquan’s sudden change.

“Senior Brother, what… what did you say?” Mu Chenyu looked at him in disbelief.

“I said get out.”

“Actually, the Sect Leader understands that no matter how united we are, it won’t make a difference. This time, numerous sects are attacking the Holy Demon Sect, and they’re all sending experts at the Divine Ascension stage or above. Outer disciples, or even innate realm disciples within the sect, would be useless. No matter how many of them there are, it would only mean more deaths. The gap between these major cultivation stages is like heaven and earth—unity alone won’t help,” Meng Yangquan said with concern.

In terms of individual sect strength, the Holy Demon Sect was definitely stronger than most other sects.

However, if many sects united, the Holy Demon Sect would likely collapse like sand in the wind.

“How could it be like this?” Although Lin Fan had been in this world for a while, he still didn’t truly understand it.

A single Divine Ascension expert could easily wipe out hundreds or even thousands of innate realm experts.

This was a qualitative change between major cultivation stages—numbers simply couldn’t compensate.

When Lin Fan was at the innate realm, he had once tried to kill Mo Yixuan, who was already in a dazed state, but couldn’t even break through Mo’s physical defenses.

That was the gap between cultivation stages.

If one truly wanted to bridge that gap, one would need a Mysterious Tier weapon.

“In a while, the Sect Leader will probably inform the entire sect,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, do you think the Sect Master believed me?” After being dismissed by the Sect Master with a single sentence, Lin Fan looked somewhat helplessly at Senior Brother Meng.

Meng Yangquan’s heart was unsettled, filled with anxiety over the impending crisis.

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there’ll be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come back stronger later,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

If you can’t win, hide; if you can, fight. How can they be so inflexible?

Meng Yangquan’s expression turned grave, “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s legacy cannot be discarded. Remember, this world is one of survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worry on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious as well.

“I’ve been an inner disciple since I was two years old, raised by the sect. If the sect falls, I fall. I will live and die with the sect,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering conviction.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, unsure of what to say.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating him.

Just as Senior Brother Meng had predicted, the Sect Master ordered all disciples below the Divine Transformation level to leave the sect.

When the news broke, all the disciples were stunned, feeling as if the sect was abandoning them.

But when they learned that the Holy Demon Sect was about to be attacked by numerous sects, everyone fell silent.

Some disciples below the Divine Transformation level quietly returned to their quarters to pack their belongings, while others refused to leave, determined to live and die with the sect.

“Senior Brother Ni, Senior Brother Yin, what will you do?” Lin Fan asked.

Yin Mochen shook his head, “Where would I go if I left? The Holy Demon Sect has long been my home. I’ll stay and fight to the last drop of blood.”

“If Senior Brother Meng isn’t leaving, I won’t leave either. Since I joined the sect, Senior Brother Meng has always guided me. I’ll stay by his side and protect him to the end,” Ni Mingyang said.

“Junior Brother Lin, you should go. Bringing this news to the sect is already a great contribution. There’s no need to throw your life away here,” Ni Mingyang said.

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment. To leave or stay? Everyone only has one life. Was he afraid of death? Naturally, Lin Fan was afraid.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t leave either,” Lin Fan said with determination.

“Junior Brother, you should go. We’re staying because we have things we care about here. You haven’t been in the sect for long. Even if you leave, we won’t blame you. We want you to live,” Ni Mingyang said.

If the sects really do attack the Holy Demon Sect this time, those who stay will likely face certain death.

Not even a sliver of hope remains.

“Enough said. If I die, so be it. If I live, I’ll live for millennia. Since ancient times, who hasn’t died? It’s just a matter of sooner or later. Besides, there’s no need to be so pessimistic. Perhaps the Sect Master can turn the tide,” Lin Fan said.

Lin Fan was a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understood that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation level to leave was also giving them a way out. After all, if the sect is in trouble and all the disciples flee, it would tarnish the sect’s reputation. So, the Sect Master’s order made it seem justified and honorable for them to leave.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their unspoken words heavy in the air.

At the Serene Heart Pavilion.

“Junior Sister Mu, you should leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said, his eyes soft but filled with reluctance as he looked at Mu Chenyu.

Now that the sect was facing a catastrophe, he couldn’t keep his junior sister by his side. He had no time to spare, so he had to let her leave the sect to save her life.

“Senior Brother, you don’t really believe him, do you? This is all just unnecessary worry. Senior Brother, let’s go out and see the mountains and rivers together. Maybe it’ll change your perspective,” Mu Chenyu said, while secretly resenting Lin Fan.

“Junior Sister, stop fooling around. Leave the sect. If I survive, I’ll come find you,” Meng Yangquan said. He and Mu Chenyu had known each other for a long time.

The first time he accidentally saw Mu Chenyu in the outer sect, he began to take notice of this junior sister. Later, Meng Yangquan left the inner sect and returned to the outer sect, thinking it would take some time to find her. But one day, she appeared behind him and asked him a question.

That was the beginning. And now, today might be the end.

“Senior Brother, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t leave either,” Mu Chenyu shook her head.

“Get out!” Meng Yangquan’s expression suddenly changed, his face twisted with anger and ferocity as he shouted.

Mu Chenyu was stunned, frightened by Meng Yangquan’s sudden transformation.

“Senior Brother, what… what did you say?” Mu Chenyu looked at him in disbelief.

“I said get out.”

If you can’t win, hide. If you can win, fight. Why be so inflexible?

“Senior Brother, do you think the Sect Master believed me?” After being dismissed by the Sect Master with a single sentence, Lin Fan looked somewhat helplessly at Senior Brother Meng.

Meng Yangquan’s heart was anything but calm at this moment. Faced with the impending crisis, he was filled with anxiety.

“He did,” Meng Yangquan nodded.

“Then why didn’t the Sect Master discuss what to do next? After all, only by uniting can we survive this dangerous period,” Lin Fan said.

The Sect Master really doesn’t know how to unite. Always thinking about going it alone, when unity is where the real strength lies.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked at Senior Brother Meng with confusion, unsure of what he was about to say.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it won’t make a difference. This time, many sects are attacking the Saint Demon Sect, and they are likely sending experts at the Divine Transformation realm or above. Outer disciples, even those at the Innate realm among the inner disciples, are useless. No matter how many there are, they’re just cannon fodder. The gap between major realms is like heaven and earth. Unity alone won’t help,” Meng Yangquan said with concern.

In terms of individual sect strength, the Saint Demon Sect is undoubtedly more powerful than most sects.

But if many sects unite, it’s likely that the Saint Demon Sect will crumble.

“How could that be?” Although Lin Fan had been in this world for a long time, he hadn’t truly understood it.

A single expert at the Divine Transformation realm could sweep through hundreds, even thousands of Innate realm experts.

This is a qualitative change between major realms. Numbers alone are useless.

When Lin Fan was at the Innate realm, he once tried to kill Mo Yixuan, who was already in a dazed state, but he couldn’t even break through his opponent’s physical body.

This is the gap between realms.

If you really want to bridge it, you’d need a Profound-tier weapon.

“The Sect Master should notify the entire sect soon,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, how can this be? If we notify the entire sect, what if there are spies among us? Wouldn’t that tip off Emperor Yan and the others?” Lin Fan said.

Meng Yangquan shook his head, “It doesn’t matter whether they know or not. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Saint Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come back stronger later,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

If you can’t win, hide. If you can win, fight. Why be so inflexible?

Meng Yangquan’s expression turned grave, “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s legacy cannot be discarded. Remember, this world is one of survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worried look on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious as well.

“I am an inner disciple, taken in by the sect at the age of two. If the sect lives, I live. If the sect falls, I fall. I will stand with the sect to the end,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering conviction.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, unsure of what to say.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating him.

Just as Senior Brother Meng had said, the Sect Master issued an order: all disciples below the Divine Transformation realm were to leave the sect.

When this news reached the disciples, they were all stunned. Did the sect mean to abandon them?

But when they learned that the Saint Demon Sect was about to be attacked by numerous sects, everyone fell silent.

Some disciples below the Divine Transformation realm quietly returned to their quarters to pack their belongings, while others refused to leave, determined to stand with the sect to the end.

“Senior Brother Ni, Senior Brother Yin, what do you think?” Lin Fan asked.

Yin Mochen shook his head, “Where would I go if I left? I’ve long considered the Saint Demon Sect my home. I will stay and fight to the last drop of blood.”

“If Senior Brother Meng isn’t leaving, then I won’t either. Since I joined the sect, Senior Brother Meng has always guided me. I want to stay by his side and protect him to the end,” Ni Mingyang said.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t either,” Lin Fan said with determination.

“Junior Brother, you should go. We have things here that we can’t bear to leave behind, which is why we don’t want to go. But you haven’t been in the sect for long. Even if you leave, we won’t blame you. We want you to live,” Ni Mingyang said.

If the sects really do attack the Saint Demon Sect this time, those who stay here will likely face certain death.

Not even a sliver of hope remains.

“Enough said. If I die, so be it. If I live, I’ll live for ten thousand years. Since ancient times, who hasn’t died? It’s just a matter of sooner or later. Besides, there’s no need to be so pessimistic. Maybe the Sect Master can turn the tide,” Lin Fan said.

Lin Fan was a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understood that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave was also giving these disciples a way out. After all, when the sect is in trouble, if all the disciples flee, it would tarnish the sect’s reputation. So the Sect Master’s order made it seem justified and honorable for these disciples to leave.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their eyes filled with unspoken words.

Qingxin Pavilion.

“Junior Sister Mu, you should leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said, his eyes soft but filled with reluctance as he looked at Mu Chenyu.

Now that the sect was facing a calamity, he couldn’t keep his junior sister by his side. He had no time to spare, so he had to let her leave the sect to preserve her life.

“Senior Brother, you don’t really believe him, do you? This is all just unnecessary worry. Senior Brother, let’s go out and see the mountains and rivers together. Maybe you’ll have a different perspective,” Mu Chenyu said, while secretly resenting Lin Fan.

“Junior Sister, don’t be foolish. Leave the sect. If I survive, I’ll come find you,” Meng Yangquan said. He and Mu Chenyu had known each other for a long time.

The first time he accidentally saw Mu Chenyu in the outer sect, he began to take notice of this junior sister. Later, Meng Yangquan left the inner sect and came to the outer sect. He thought it would take a while to find his junior sister, but one day, she appeared behind him and asked him a question.

That was the beginning, and now, today might be the end.

“Senior Brother, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t either,” Mu Chenyu said, shaking her head.

“Then why didn’t the Sect Master discuss what to do next? After all, only by uniting can we survive this dangerous period,” Lin Fan said.

The Sect Master really doesn’t know how to unite people, always thinking about acting alone. The power of unity is immense.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked at Senior Brother Meng with confusion, unsure of what he was about to say.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it won’t make a difference. This time, many sects are attacking the Sacred Demon Sect, and they are likely sending experts at the Divine Transformation realm or above. Outer disciples, even those at the Innate realm among the inner disciples, are useless. No matter how many there are, they would just be cannon fodder. The gap between major realms is like the difference between heaven and earth. Unity alone won’t help,” Meng Yangquan said with concern.

In terms of individual sect strength, the Sacred Demon Sect is undoubtedly more powerful than most sects.

But if many sects unite, it might just crumble.

“How could that be?” Although Lin Fan had been in this world for a long time, he hadn’t truly understood it.

A Divine Transformation realm expert could sweep through hundreds, even thousands of Innate realm experts.

This is a qualitative change in major realms; sheer numbers are useless.

When Lin Fan was at the Innate realm, he once tried to kill Mo Yixuan, who was in a dazed state, but couldn’t even break through his physical body.

This is the gap between realms.

If one really wants to bridge this gap, only a Profound-tier weapon would suffice.

“The Sect Master will probably notify the entire sect soon,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, how can this be? If there are spies within the sect, wouldn’t the news reach Emperor Yan and the others?” Lin Fan asked.

Meng Yangquan shook his head. “Whether they know or not doesn’t matter. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Sacred Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come back stronger later,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

Mu Chenyu was stunned, frightened by Meng Yangquan’s sudden transformation.

“Senior Brother, what… what did you say?” Mu Chenyu asked, unable to believe her ears.

“I said get out.”

“I was born to be an inner sect disciple. I was adopted by the sect at the age of two. As long as the sect exists, I exist. If the sect perishes, I perish with it. I will stand or fall with the sect,” Meng Yangquan said firmly.

“Senior Brother, do you think the Sect Master believed me?” After being dismissed by the Sect Master with a single sentence, Lin Fan looked somewhat helplessly at Senior Brother Meng.

Meng Yangquan’s heart was unsettled at this moment, filled with anxiety over the impending crisis.

“He believed you,” Meng Yangquan nodded.

Some disciples below the Divine Transformation realm quietly returned to their quarters to pack their belongings, while others refused to leave, determined to live and die with the sect.

“Senior Brother Ni, Senior Brother Yin, what do you think?” Lin Fan asked.

Yin Mochen shook his head. “Where would I go if I left? I’ve long considered the Holy Demon Sect my home. I’ll stay and fight to the last drop of blood.”

“If Senior Brother Meng isn’t leaving, neither will I. Since I joined the sect, Senior Brother Meng has always guided me. I’ll stay by his side and protect him to the end,” Ni Mingyang said.

“Junior Brother Lin, you should go. Bringing this news to the sect is already a great contribution. There’s no need to throw your life away here,” Ni Mingyang said.

Lin Fan was a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understood that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave was also giving them an honorable way out. After all, if the sect is in trouble and all the disciples flee, it would look bad. So, the Sect Master’s order made it seem justified and proper for them to leave openly.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their unspoken words heavy in the air.

Qingxin Pavilion.

“Junior Sister Mu, leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said, his eyes soft yet filled with reluctance.

With the sect facing imminent disaster, he couldn’t keep Junior Sister Mu by his side. He had no time to spare and could only let her leave the sect to save her life.

“Senior Brother, you don’t really believe him, do you? This is all just unnecessary worry. Senior Brother, let’s go out and see the mountains and rivers together. Maybe you’ll feel differently,” Mu Chenyu said, secretly resenting Lin Fan.

“Junior Sister, don’t be foolish. Leave the sect. If I survive, I’ll come find you,” Meng Yangquan said. He and Mu Chenyu had known each other for a long time.

The first time he accidentally saw Mu Chenyu in the outer sect, he began to take notice of this junior sister. Later, Meng Yangquan left the inner sect and returned to the outer sect, thinking it would take a while to find her. But one day, she appeared behind him and asked him a question.

That was the beginning, and now, today might be the end.

“Senior Brother, if you’re not leaving, neither will I,” Mu Chenyu said, shaking her head.

“Get out!” Meng Yangquan’s expression suddenly changed, his face twisted with anger and ferocity.

Mu Chenyu was stunned, frightened by his sudden transformation.

“Senior Brother, what… what did you say?” Mu Chenyu asked, unable to believe her ears.

“I said get out.”

When they heard this news, all the disciples were shocked, feeling as if the sect was abandoning them.

However, when they learned that numerous sects were about to attack the Holy Demon Sect, everyone fell silent.

Some disciples below the Divine Ascension stage quietly returned to their quarters to pack their belongings, while others refused to leave, determined to share the sect’s fate.

“Senior Brother, do you think the Sect Master believed me?” After being dismissed by the Sect Master with a single sentence, Lin Fan looked somewhat helplessly at Senior Brother Meng.

Meng Yangquan’s heart was unsettled, filled with anxiety over the impending crisis.

“He believed you,” Meng Yangquan nodded.

“Then why didn’t the Sect Master discuss what to do next? After all, only by uniting can we survive this dangerous period,” Lin Fan said.

The Sect Master really doesn’t know how to unite people, always thinking of acting alone. Unity is strength, after all.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked at Senior Brother Meng with confusion, unsure of what he was about to say.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it’s useless. This time, many sects are attacking the Holy Demon Sect, and they’re likely sending experts at the Divine Transformation realm or above. Outer disciples, even those at the Innate realm among the inner disciples, are useless. No matter how many there are, they’re just cannon fodder. The gap between major realms is like heaven and earth. Unity alone won’t help,” Meng Yangquan said with concern.

In terms of individual sect strength, the Holy Demon Sect is undoubtedly more powerful than most sects.

But if many sects unite, it’s likely that the Holy Demon Sect will crumble.

“How could that be?” Although Lin Fan had been in this world for a long time, he hadn’t truly understood it.

A single expert at the Divine Transformation realm could sweep through hundreds, even thousands of Innate realm experts.

This is a qualitative change between major realms. Numbers alone are useless.

When Lin Fan was at the Innate realm, he once tried to kill Mo Yixuan, who was in a dazed state, but couldn’t even break through his physical body.

This is the gap between realms.

If you really want to bridge it, you’d need a Profound-tier weapon.

“The Sect Master will probably notify the entire sect soon,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, how can that be? If there’s a traitor among us, wouldn’t Emperor Yan and the others find out?” Lin Fan asked.

Meng Yangquan shook his head, “It doesn’t matter whether they know or not. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Holy Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there’ll be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come back stronger later,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

If you can’t win, hide. If you can win, fight. Why be so inflexible?

Meng Yangquan’s expression turned serious, “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s legacy cannot be abandoned. Remember, this world is one of survival of the fittest. Go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worry on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious.

“I’ve been an inner disciple since I was two years old, raised by the sect. If the sect lives, I live. If the sect falls, I fall. I will stand with the sect to the end,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering conviction.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, unsure of what to say.

At that moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating him.

Just as Senior Brother Meng had predicted, the Sect Master ordered all disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave the sect.

When the news spread, all the disciples were stunned, feeling as if the sect was abandoning them.

But when they learned that the Holy Demon Sect was about to be attacked by numerous sects, everyone fell silent.

Some disciples below the Divine Transformation realm quietly returned to their quarters to pack their belongings, while others refused to leave, determined to stand with the sect to the end.

“Senior Brother Ni, Senior Brother Yin, what will you do?” Lin Fan asked.

Yin Mochen shook his head, “Where would I go if I left? I’ve long considered the Holy Demon Sect my home. I’ll stay and fight to the last drop of blood.”

“If Senior Brother Meng isn’t leaving, I won’t either. Since I joined the sect, Senior Brother Meng has always guided me. I’ll stay by his side and protect him to the end,” Ni Mingyang said.

“Junior Brother Lin, you should go. Bringing this news to the sect is already a great contribution. There’s no need to throw your life away here,” Ni Mingyang said.

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment. To leave or stay? Everyone only has one life. Was he afraid of death? Naturally, Lin Fan was afraid.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t either,” Lin Fan said firmly.

“Junior Brother, you should go. We’re staying because we have things we care about here. You haven’t been in the sect for long. Even if you leave, we won’t blame you. We want you to live,” Ni Mingyang said.

If the sects really attack the Holy Demon Sect this time, those who stay will likely face certain death.

There’s not even a sliver of hope.

“Enough said. If I die, so be it. If I live, I’ll live on. Everyone dies eventually, it’s just a matter of sooner or later. Besides, there’s no need to be so pessimistic. Maybe the Sect Master can turn the tide,” Lin Fan said.

Lin Fan was a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understood that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave was also giving them an honorable way out. After all, if the sect is in trouble and all the disciples flee, it would tarnish the sect’s reputation. So, the Sect Master’s order allowed these disciples to leave with dignity.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their unspoken words conveyed in that gesture.

Qingxin Pavilion.

“Junior Sister Mu, you should leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said, his eyes soft yet filled with reluctance.

The first time he accidentally saw Mu Chenyu in the outer sect, he began to pay attention to this junior sister. Later, Meng Yangquan left the inner sect and returned to the outer sect, thinking it would take some time to find her. But one day, she appeared behind him and asked him a question.

That was the beginning, and now, today might be the end.

“Senior Brother, if you’re not leaving, I won’t either,” Mu Chenyu shook her head.

“Get out!” Meng Yangquan’s expression suddenly changed, his face twisted with anger and ferocity.

Mu Chenyu was stunned, frightened by Meng Yangquan’s sudden transformation.

“Senior Brother, what… what did you say?” Mu Chenyu looked at him in disbelief.

“I said get out.”

Yin Mochen shook his head. “Where else can we go? I’ve long considered the Holy Demon Sect my home. I will stay and fight until my last drop of blood.”

“Senior Brother, do you think the Sect Master believed me?” After being dismissed by the Sect Master with a single sentence, Lin Fan looked somewhat helplessly at Senior Brother Meng.

Meng Yangquan’s heart was anything but calm at this moment. Filled with anxiety over the impending crisis, he nodded. “He believed you.”

“Then why didn’t the Sect Master discuss what to do? After all, only by uniting can we get through this dangerous period,” Lin Fan said.

The Sect Master really doesn’t know how to unite. Always thinking about acting alone, when unity is where true strength lies.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked at Senior Brother Meng with confusion, unsure of what he was about to say.

If one truly wants to bridge it, only a Profound-tier weapon would suffice.

“The Sect Master will probably notify the entire sect soon,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, how can that be? If there are spies among us, wouldn’t the Yan Emperor and others find out?” Lin Fan asked.

Meng Yangquan shook his head. “Whether they know or not doesn’t matter. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Holy Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come back when we’re stronger,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

If you can’t win, hide. If you can win, fight. How can you not be flexible?

At this moment, Meng Yangquan’s expression turned grave. “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s legacy cannot be abandoned. Remember, this world is one of survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worried look on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious as well.

“I am an inner disciple, taken in by the sect at the age of two. If the sect lives, I live. If the sect falls, I fall. I will stand with the sect to the end,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering determination.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, unsure of what to say.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating and heavy.

Just as Senior Brother Meng had said, the Sect Master ordered all disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave the sect.

When this news spread, all the disciples were stunned, feeling as if the sect was abandoning them.

But when they learned that the Holy Demon Sect was about to be attacked by many sects, everyone fell silent.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t leave either,” Lin Fan said with determination.

“Junior Brother, you should go. The two of us have things here that we can’t let go of, which is why we don’t want to leave. But you haven’t been in the sect for long. Even if you leave, we won’t blame you. We want you to live,” Ni Mingyang said.

If the sects really do attack the Holy Demon Sect this time, those who stay will likely face certain death.

Not even a sliver of hope remains.

Lin Fan is a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understands that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave is also giving them a way out. After all, when the sect is in trouble, if all the disciples flee, it would tarnish the sect’s reputation. So, the Sect Master’s order allows these disciples to leave with a clear conscience.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their unspoken words conveyed in that gesture.

“Junior Sister Mu, you should leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said, his eyes soft yet filled with reluctance as he looked at Mu Chenyu.

“Senior Brother, you don’t really believe him, do you? This is all just unnecessary worry. Senior Brother, let’s go out and see the mountains and rivers. Maybe you’ll have a different perspective,” Mu Chenyu said, secretly resenting Lin Fan.

“Junior Sister, don’t be foolish. Leave the sect. If I survive, I’ll come find you,” Meng Yangquan said. He and Mu Chenyu had known each other for a long time.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it won’t make a difference.

But if many sects unite, it might just crumble.

A single Divine Transformation realm expert could sweep through hundreds, even thousands of Innate realm experts.

This is a qualitative change in major realms; sheer numbers are useless.

When Lin Fan was at the Innate realm, he once tried to kill Mo Yixuan, who was in a dazed state, but couldn’t even break through his physical body.

This is the gap between realms.

If one really wants to bridge this gap, only a Profound-tier weapon would suffice.

“The Sect Master should notify the entire sect soon,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, how can that be? If there’s a traitor among us, wouldn’t Emperor Yan and the others find out?” Lin Fan said.

Meng Yangquan shook his head, “Whether they know or not doesn’t matter. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Holy Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come out again when we’re stronger,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

If you can’t win, hide; if you can win, fight. How can one be so inflexible?

Meng Yangquan’s expression turned grave, “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s legacy cannot be abandoned. Remember, this world is about the survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worried look on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious.

“I am an inner disciple, taken in by the sect at the age of two. If the sect lives, I live; if the sect perishes, I perish. I will stand with the sect till the end,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering conviction.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, not knowing what to say.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating him.

Just as Senior Brother Meng had said, the Sect Master ordered all disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave the sect.

Upon hearing this news, all the disciples were stunned, feeling as if the sect was abandoning them.

But when they learned that the Holy Demon Sect was about to be attacked by numerous sects, everyone fell silent.

Some disciples below the Divine Transformation realm quietly returned to their quarters to pack their belongings, while others refused to leave, determined to stand with the sect till the end.

“Senior Brother Ni, Senior Brother Yin, what do you think?” Lin Fan asked.

Yin Mochen shook his head, “Where would I go if I left? I’ve long considered the Holy Demon Sect my home. I will stay and fight to the last drop of blood.”

“If Senior Brother Meng isn’t leaving, I won’t leave either. Since I joined the sect, Senior Brother Meng has always guided me. I want to stay by his side and protect him till the end,” Ni Mingyang said.

“Junior Brother Lin, you should leave. Bringing this news to the sect is already a great merit. There’s no need to throw your life away here,” Ni Mingyang said.

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment. To leave or stay—everyone only has one life. Is he afraid of death? Naturally, Lin Fan is afraid.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t leave either,” Lin Fan said with determination.

“Junior Brother, you should leave. We have things here that we can’t bear to leave behind, but you haven’t been in the sect for long. Even if you leave, we won’t blame you. We want you to live,” Ni Mingyang said.

If the various sects really attack the Holy Demon Sect this time, those who stay will likely face certain death.

Not even a glimmer of hope remains.

“Enough said. If I die, so be it; if I live, I live. Since ancient times, who hasn’t died? It’s just a matter of sooner or later. Besides, there’s no need to be so pessimistic. Perhaps the Sect Master can turn the tide,” Lin Fan said.

Lin Fan is a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understands that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave is also giving them a way out. After all, when the sect is in trouble, if all the disciples flee, it would tarnish the sect’s reputation. So, the Sect Master’s order makes the disciples feel justified in leaving openly.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their unspoken words contained in that gesture.

Qingxin Pavilion.

“Junior Sister Mu, you should leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said, his eyes soft yet reluctant as he looked at Mu Chenyu.

Now that the sect is facing a catastrophe, he can’t keep Junior Sister by his side. He has no time to spare, so he must let her leave the sect to preserve her life.

“Senior Brother, you don’t really believe him, do you? This is all just unnecessary worry. Senior Brother, let’s go out and see the mountains and rivers together. Maybe you’ll have a different perspective,” Mu Chenyu said, secretly resenting Lin Fan.

“Junior Sister, don’t be foolish. Leave the sect. If I survive, I’ll come find you,” Meng Yangquan said. He and Mu Chenyu had known each other for a long time.

The first time he accidentally saw Mu Chenyu in the outer sect, he began to take notice of this junior sister. Later, Meng Yangquan left the inner sect and came to the outer sect, thinking it would take some time to find her. But one day, she appeared behind him and asked him a question.

That was the beginning, and now, today might be the end.

“Senior Brother, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t leave either,” Mu Chenyu shook her head.

“Get out!” Meng Yangquan’s expression suddenly changed, his face filled with anger and ferocity as he shouted.

Mu Chenyu was stunned, frightened by Meng Yangquan’s sudden change.

“Senior Brother, what… what did you say?” Mu Chenyu looked at Meng Yangquan in disbelief.

“I said get out.”

If the various sects really attacked the Holy Demon Sect this time, those who stayed behind would likely face certain death.

Not even a glimmer of hope remained.

“Enough said. If you die, you die. If you live, you live for ten thousand years. Since ancient times, who has escaped death? It’s just a matter of when—early or late. Besides, there’s no need to be so pessimistic. Perhaps the Sect Leader will find a way to turn the tide,” Lin Fan said.

Lin Fan was a man of both emotion and righteousness. He understood that the Sect Leader ordering disciples below the Divine Ascension stage to leave was actually giving them a way out. After all, when the sect faced disaster, if all these disciples fled, it would damage the sect’s reputation. Therefore, by issuing this order, the Sect Leader allowed these disciples to leave openly and with justification.

“Senior Brother, do you think the Sect Master believed me?” After being dismissed by the Sect Master with a single sentence, Lin Fan looked somewhat helplessly at Senior Brother Meng.

Meng Yangquan’s heart was anything but calm at this moment. He was filled with anxiety over the impending crisis.

“He believed you,” Meng Yangquan nodded.

“Then why didn’t the Sect Master say what we should do? After all, only by uniting can we get through this dangerous period,” Lin Fan said.

The Sect Master really doesn’t know how to unite. Always thinking of acting alone, when unity is our greatest strength.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked confusedly at Senior Brother Meng, not knowing what he was about to say.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it won’t be of any use. This time, many sects are attacking the Holy Demon Sect, and they should all be masters at the Divine Transformation realm or above. Outer disciples, even Inner disciples at the Innate realm, are useless. No matter how many there are, they’re just cannon fodder. The gap between major realms is like heaven and earth; unity alone won’t help,” Meng Yangquan said worriedly.

In terms of individual sect strength, the Holy Demon Sect is definitely more powerful than most sects.

But if many sects unite, it’s likely to crumble.

“How can that be?” Although Lin Fan had been in this world for a long time, he hadn’t truly understood it.

A master at the Divine Transformation realm can sweep through hundreds, even thousands of Innate realm experts.

This is a qualitative change in major realms; sheer numbers are useless.

When Lin Fan was at the Innate realm, he once tried to kill Mo Yixuan, who was in a dazed state, but couldn’t even break through his physical body.

This is the gap between realms.

If you really want to bridge it, you can only use Profound-tier weapons.

“The Sect Master should notify the entire sect soon,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, how can that be? If there are spies within the sect, wouldn’t Yan Emperor and the others find out?” Lin Fan said.

Meng Yangquan shook his head, “It doesn’t matter whether they know or not. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Holy Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there’ll be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come out stronger later,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

If you can’t win, hide; if you can win, fight. How can you be so inflexible?

At this moment, Meng Yangquan’s expression turned grave, “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s heritage cannot be discarded. Remember, this world is about the survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worried look on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious too.

“I am an Inner disciple, taken in by the sect at the age of two. If the sect lives, I live; if the sect dies, I die. I will stand with the sect to the end,” Meng Yangquan said with firm conviction.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, not knowing what to say.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating him.

Just as Senior Brother Meng had said, the Sect Master ordered all disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave the sect.

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment. To leave or stay—each person only has one life. Was he afraid of death? Naturally, Lin Fan was afraid of death.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t leave either,” Lin Fan said with determination.

“Junior Brother, you should go. We have things here that we can’t let go of, which is why we don’t want to leave. But you haven’t been in the sect for long. Even if you leave, we won’t blame you. We want you to live,” Ni Mingyang said.

After all, when the sect is in trouble, if all the disciples flee, it would tarnish the sect’s reputation.

“Then why didn’t the Sect Master discuss what to do next? After all, only by uniting can we survive this dangerous period,” Lin Fan said.

The Sect Master really doesn’t know how to unite people, always thinking about going it alone. Unity is strength, after all.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked at Senior Brother Meng with confusion, unsure of what he was about to say.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it’s of no use. This time, many sects are attacking the Sacred Demon Sect, and they’re likely sending experts at the Divine Transformation level or above. Outer disciples, even those at the Innate level among the inner disciples, are useless. No matter how many there are, they’re just cannon fodder. The gap between major realms is like heaven and earth; unity alone won’t bridge it,” Meng Yangquan said with concern.

In terms of individual sect strength, the Sacred Demon Sect is undoubtedly more powerful than most sects.

But if many sects unite, it’s likely to crumble like a house of cards.

“How could that be?” Although Lin Fan had been in this world for a long time, he hadn’t truly understood it.

“Senior Brother, how can that be? If there’s a spy among us, wouldn’t Emperor Yan and the others find out?” Lin Fan asked.

Meng Yangquan shook his head, “Whether they know or not is irrelevant. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Sacred Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there’ll be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come back stronger later,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worry on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious.

“I’ve been an inner disciple since I was two, raised by the sect. If the sect falls, I fall. I will live and die with the sect,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering conviction.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, unsure of what to say.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating him.

Just as Senior Brother Meng had predicted, the Sect Master ordered all disciples below the Divine Transformation level to leave the sect.

“Junior Brother Lin, you should go. Bringing this news to the sect is already a great contribution. There’s no need to lose your life here,” Ni Mingyang said.

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment. To leave or stay—everyone only has one life. Was he afraid of death? Naturally, he was.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then neither will I,” Lin Fan said firmly.

“Junior Brother, you should go. We’re staying because we have things we care about here. You haven’t been in the sect for long. Even if you leave, we won’t blame you. We want you to live,” Ni Mingyang said.

If the sects really do attack the Sacred Demon Sect this time, those who stay will likely face certain death.

Not even a sliver of hope remains.

Lin Fan was a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understood that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation level to leave was also giving them a way out. After all, if the sect is in trouble and all the disciples flee, it would look bad. So the Sect Master’s order made it seem justified and honorable for them to leave.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their eyes filled with unspoken words.

At the Serene Heart Pavilion.

“Junior Sister Mu, you should leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said, his eyes soft but filled with reluctance as he looked at Mu Chenyu.

Now that the sect was facing a calamity, he couldn’t keep his junior sister by his side. He was too preoccupied to protect her, so he had to let her leave the sect to save her life.

“Senior Brother, you don’t really believe him, do you? This is all just unnecessary worry. Senior Brother, let’s go out and see the mountains and rivers together. Maybe you’ll feel differently,” Mu Chenyu said, secretly resenting Lin Fan.

“Junior Sister, don’t be foolish. Leave the sect. If I survive, I’ll come find you,” Meng Yangquan said. He and Mu Chenyu had known each other for a long time.

The first time he accidentally saw Mu Chenyu in the outer sect, he began to take notice of her. Later, Meng Yangquan left the inner sect and came to the outer sect, thinking it would take some time to find her. But one day, she appeared behind him and asked him a question.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked at Senior Brother Meng with confusion, unsure of what he was about to say.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it won’t make a difference. This time, many sects are attacking the Holy Demon Sect, and they are likely sending experts who have reached the Divine Transformation realm or above. Outer disciples, even those at the Innate realm among the inner disciples, are useless. No matter how many there are, they’re just cannon fodder. The gap between major realms is like heaven and earth; unity alone won’t bridge it,” Meng Yangquan said with concern.

If you can’t win, hide; if you can win, fight. Why can’t he be flexible?

At this moment, Meng Yangquan’s expression turned serious. “Junior Brother, the glory of our great sect cannot be discarded. Remember, this world is one of survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worry on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious as well.

“I am an inner disciple, taken in by the sect at the age of two. If the sect exists, I exist; if the sect falls, I fall. I will live and die with the sect,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering conviction.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating and heavy.

If you can’t win, hide; if you can win, fight. How can one be so inflexible?

Meng Yangquan’s expression turned grave, “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s legacy cannot be abandoned. Remember, this world is one of survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment. To leave or stay? Everyone only has one life. Is he afraid of death? Naturally, Lin Fan is afraid.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t leave either,” Lin Fan said firmly.

“Junior Brother, you should go. We have things here that we can’t bear to leave behind, but you haven’t been in the sect for long. Even if you leave, we won’t blame you. We want you to live,” Ni Mingyang said.

If the various sects really attack the Sacred Demon Sect this time, those who stay will likely face certain death.

Not even a glimmer of hope.

“Enough said. If I die, so be it; if I live, I live. Since ancient times, who hasn’t died? It’s just a matter of sooner or later. Besides, there’s no need to be so pessimistic. Perhaps the Sect Master can turn the tide,” Lin Fan said.

Lin Fan is a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understands that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave is also giving them a way out. After all, when the sect is in trouble, if all the disciples flee, it would tarnish the sect’s reputation. So, the Sect Master’s order makes it seem justified and honorable for these disciples to leave.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their eyes filled with unspoken words.

Qingxin Pavilion.

“Junior Sister Mu, you should leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said with a gentle yet reluctant look in his eyes.

Now that the sect is facing a calamity, he can’t keep Junior Sister by his side. He has no time to spare and can only let her leave the sect to preserve her life.

“Senior Brother, you don’t really believe him, do you? This is all just unnecessary worry. Senior Brother, let’s go out and see the mountains and rivers together. Maybe you’ll have a different perspective,” Mu Chenyu said, while secretly resenting Lin Fan.

“Junior Sister, don’t be foolish. Leave the sect. If I survive, I will come find you,” Meng Yangquan said. He and Mu Chenyu had known each other for a long time.

The first time he accidentally saw Mu Chenyu in the outer sect, he began to take notice of this junior sister. Later, Meng Yangquan left the inner sect and came to the outer sect, thinking it would take some time to find her. But one day, she appeared behind him and asked him a question.

That was the beginning, and now, today might be the end.

“Senior Brother, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t leave either,” Mu Chenyu shook her head.

“Get out!” Meng Yangquan’s expression suddenly changed, his face twisted with anger and ferocity.

Mu Chenyu was stunned, frightened by Meng Yangquan’s sudden transformation.

“Senior Brother, what… what did you say?” Mu Chenyu looked at Meng Yangquan in disbelief.

“I said get out.”

“Senior Brother, do you think the Sect Master believed me?” After being dismissed by the Sect Master with a single sentence, Lin Fan looked somewhat helplessly at Senior Brother Meng.

Meng Yangquan’s heart was anything but calm at this moment, filled with anxiety over the impending crisis.

“He did,” Meng Yangquan nodded.

“Then why didn’t the Sect Master say what we should do? After all, only by uniting can we get through this dangerous period,” Lin Fan said.

The Sect Master really doesn’t know how to unite people, always thinking about acting alone. The power of unity is immense.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked at Senior Brother Meng with confusion, unsure of what he was about to say.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it won’t make a difference. This time, many sects are attacking the Sacred Demon Sect, and they are likely sending experts at the Divine Transformation realm or above. Outer disciples, even inner disciples at the Innate realm, are useless. No matter how many there are, they’re just cannon fodder. The gap between major realms is like heaven and earth; unity alone can’t bridge it,” Meng Yangquan said with worry.

In terms of individual sect strength, the Sacred Demon Sect is undoubtedly more powerful than most sects.

But if many sects unite, it would likely crumble like a house of cards.

“How could that be?” Although Lin Fan had been in this world for a long time, he hadn’t truly understood it.

A single expert at the Divine Transformation realm could sweep through hundreds, even thousands of Innate realm experts.

This is a qualitative change between major realms; sheer numbers are useless.

When Lin Fan was at the Innate realm, he once tried to kill Mo Yixuan, who was in a dazed state, but couldn’t even break through his physical body.

This is the gap between realms.

If one really wants to bridge it, only a Profound-tier weapon would suffice.

“The Sect Master will probably notify the entire sect soon,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, how can that be? If there are spies among us, wouldn’t the Yan Emperor and others find out?” Lin Fan said.

Meng Yangquan shook his head, “It doesn’t matter whether they know or not. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Sacred Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there’s no need to worry about firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide for a while? We can come back stronger later,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

If you can’t win, hide; if you can win, fight. How can one be so inflexible?

Meng Yangquan’s expression turned grave, “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s legacy cannot be abandoned. Remember, this world is one of survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“Senior Brother, what about you?” Seeing the worried look on Senior Brother Meng’s face, Lin Fan couldn’t help but feel anxious as well.

“I am an inner disciple, taken in by the sect at the age of two. If the sect lives, I live; if the sect dies, I die. I will stand with the sect to the end,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering conviction.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, unsure of what to say.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating him.

As Senior Brother Meng had predicted, the Sect Master ordered all disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave the sect.

When the news broke, all the disciples were stunned, feeling as if the sect was abandoning them.

But when they learned that the Sacred Demon Sect was about to be attacked by numerous sects, everyone fell silent.

Some disciples below the Divine Transformation realm quietly returned to their quarters to pack their belongings, while others refused to leave, determined to stand with the sect to the end.

“Senior Brother Ni, Senior Brother Yin, what do you think?” Lin Fan asked.

Yin Mochen shook his head, “Where would I go if I left? The Sacred Demon Sect has long been my home. I will stay and fight to the last drop of blood.”

“If Senior Brother Meng isn’t leaving, I won’t leave either. Since I joined the sect, Senior Brother Meng has always guided me. I want to stay by his side and protect him to the end,” Ni Mingyang said.

“Junior Brother Lin, you should go. Bringing this news to the sect is already a great achievement. There’s no need to throw your life away here,” Ni Mingyang said.

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment. To leave or stay—everyone only has one life. Was he afraid of death? Naturally, Lin Fan was afraid.

But sometimes, it depends on the situation.

“Senior Brothers, if you’re not leaving, then I won’t leave either,” Lin Fan said with determination.

If the sects really attack the Sacred Demon Sect this time, those who stay will likely face certain death.

Not even a sliver of hope remains.

“Enough said. If I die, so be it; if I live, I’ll live forever. Everyone dies eventually; it’s just a matter of sooner or later. Besides, there’s no need to be so pessimistic. Maybe the Sect Master can turn the tide,” Lin Fan said.

Lin Fan was a man of loyalty and righteousness. He understood that the Sect Master’s order for disciples below the Divine Transformation realm to leave was also giving them a way out. After all, when the sect is in trouble, if all the disciples flee, it would tarnish the sect’s reputation. So, the Sect Master’s order made it seem justified for the disciples to leave openly.

“Junior Brother…” Senior Brothers Ni Mingyang and Yin Mochen looked at Lin Fan, patting his shoulder, their unspoken words contained in that gesture.

At the Serene Heart Pavilion.

“Junior Sister Mu, you should leave with the other disciples,” Meng Yangquan said, his eyes soft but filled with reluctance as he looked at Mu Chenyu.

The Sect Master really doesn’t know how to unite. Always thinking of acting alone, when unity is the greatest strength.

“Junior Brother.”

“Yes?” Lin Fan looked at Senior Brother Meng with confusion, unsure of what he was about to say.

“Actually, the Sect Master understands that no matter how much we unite, it won’t be of any use. This time, many sects are attacking the Holy Demon Sect, and those coming are likely to be experts above the Divine Transformation realm. Outer disciples, even inner disciples at the Innate realm, are useless. No matter how many there are, they’re just cannon fodder. The gap between major realms is like heaven and earth; unity alone won’t bridge it,” Meng Yangquan said with worry.

“The Sect Master should notify the entire sect soon,” Meng Yangquan said.

“Senior Brother, how can that be? If there are spies within the sect, wouldn’t the Yan Emperor and others find out?” Lin Fan said.

Meng Yangquan shook his head, “Whether they know or not is irrelevant. They know the Sect Master won’t leave the Holy Demon Sect.”

“Senior Brother, as long as the green hills remain, there’ll be no shortage of firewood. Why doesn’t the Sect Master lead the entire sect to hide? We can come out again when we’re stronger,” Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

If you can’t win, hide; if you can win, fight. How can one be so inflexible?

At this moment, Meng Yangquan’s expression turned grave, “Junior Brother, the glory of a great sect’s legacy cannot be abandoned. Remember, this world is one of survival of the fittest. Alright, go find Junior Brother Ni and the others, pack up, and leave the sect early.”

“I am an inner disciple, taken in by the sect at the age of two. If the sect exists, I exist; if the sect falls, I fall. I will live and die with the sect,” Meng Yangquan said with unwavering conviction.

“Senior Brother…” Lin Fan watched Meng Yangquan’s retreating figure, unsure of what to say.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if the entire sky was pressing down on him, suffocating him.
