Whats going on here? Who tolled the bell?

Acting like he just showed up, Venerable s.h.i.+ looked tense as he walked in front.

Seeing his elders were also here, one came before him and pointed at Zhuo Fan, Venerable s.h.i.+, Zhuo Fan holds the Sect Leader badge and rang the bell, convening this meeting. Now he wants everyone in the sect to march for Mystical Heaven Sect.

What? Venerable s.h.i.+ looked deeply at Zhuo Fan then at the badge.

Zhuo Fan gave him a cold look. He knew that Venerable s.h.i.+ was the boss of the inner sect. Even though Xie Wuyue was the Sect Leader, he was still being contradicted in cases. Which made it even harder just by having his badge.

In this case, if he was blocked, he would just have to set Venerable s.h.i.+ as an example for the rest of them.

Zhuo Fans eyes flashed with bloodthirst while the oldies looked at his defiant gaze with mockery.

[Youre just a mere disciple with a bit of merit to your name. Even if youre Sect Leaders right hand, not even Sect Leader himself would be able to do what he wanted if Venerable s.h.i.+ was against it.]

[Wanting to use some piece of wood to cower us? You dont know the power of the inner sect by the looks of it!]

Venerable Qi and the others from the Labor Office watched while calculating gains and losses. If Zhuo Fan was going against Venerable s.h.i.+, they would side with him.

Although Zhuo Fans order was casual, it had deep implications and should be treated with care. But he had Sect Leaders badge and was also Labor Offices representative.

Be it in a vie for power in an empire or the clashes between sects, it always came down to following the one that adhered to their goals.

Zhuo Fan was the rock of the Labor Office. So no matter how ridiculous his request was, they would back him up. This was a fight for interests.

The hall was split in two groups on the spot, glaring at each other as they were on the brink of war, plunging the sect into a bitter fight.

However, Venerable s.h.i.+s action left everyone shocked. Both factions stared at him in stupefaction.

Bowing before Zhuo, uhm, the badge, Venerable s.h.i.+ spoke with utmost respect, Greetings, Sect Leader, I obey your order!

Venerable s.h.i.+ His faction looked at him lost, the same for Labor Offices side.

[Whats with Venerable s.h.i.+ all of a sudden? Why did he cave so soon when he always fought tooth and nail with Sect Leader? ]

[Is Zhuo Fans aura so grand that it shook him?]

Everyones mind was thrown for a loop at the sudden development.

Glaring at them, Venerable s.h.i.+ spoke earnestly, Impudent! Zhuo Fan carries Sect Leaders badge which makes him the highest power beneath Sect Leader. His words are Sect Leaders. How dare you defy his orders!

We wont! They all hung their head.

Zhuo Fan and Venerable Qis side were filled with doubt.

[Did he wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?]

Ignoring their puzzled gazes, Venerable s.h.i.+ smiled, Ha-ha-ha, since this is Sect Leaders will, we can only follow it. Only, we cant leave the sect empty. May I leave a few inner sect elders and disciple to defend it, Steward Zhuo?

Eying him, Zhuo Fan nodded.

He didnt want to take them in the first place, only Labor Offices elders or if they came as well, it might spell trouble at the worst moment.

Though Venerable s.h.i.+s att.i.tude was very peculiar, queer in fact.

[Why is he helping me for a change?]

Frowning, Zhuo Fan looked dead in the weasels eyes, pondering and finally letting it go.

Time was no longer a luxury right now.

Alright. Well do as Venerable s.h.i.+ said. The inner sect elders and venerables shall stay behind while Labor Offices will follow me! Zhuo Fan nodded and boomed.

Everyone nodded and bowed in response. Venerable Qis team had their doubts but now, to support Zhuo Fan, they kept silent.

[Since even Venerable s.h.i.+ who was always against us didnt make a fuss, why should we?]

So, Zhuo Fan led the oldies group as they walked out of the Main Hall with great fanfare. Soon, the entire sect was in a clamor as the disciples gathered to set off.

Watching the lively scene, Venerable s.h.i.+ had a nasty smile. An elder next to him frowned, Venerable s.h.i.+, why would you allow such a serious action

Its because its so serious that we must let the kid do it. I cant let him run off again without stirring things, ha-ha-ha

Venerable s.h.i.+ stroked his beard, his eyes glinting, Getting rid of him alone isnt enough. We must remove the Elite Labor Office down to the root as well. Or they would just rise again and well regret it. Now that hes asking for it, we should further his manic plans and let him destroy himself.

The others frowned, with only Grand Elder able to see the wisdom in it and shaking his head.

[The kid has done it this time]

Demon Scheming Sects disciples had their orders and soon gathered. Kui Gang and Yueer were obviously there, since they were the closest to Zhuo Fan.

Soon there were tens of thousands of disciples at the ready.

Zhuo Fan looked around before setting off with all of them. The entire Demon Scheming Sect was now empty and eerily silent with only a hundred elders holding down the fort..

Two weeks later, Kui Gang and the girls were tense, waiting for news from Zhuo Fan. Seeing how another month pa.s.sed, the four were tense about Chu Qingcheng and the others fate as well as if Zhuo Fan would be able to bring any help.

Rumble~

The sky darkened and thunder rolled. The black clouds loomed overhead, reflecting the downcast mood they felt inside. It was so oppressive it was hard to breathe.

Looking above, those were not clouds but a sea of people that came right for them.

The one leading them was none other than Zhuo Fan!

Kui Lang cried out, Heavens above, Steward Zhuo got the entire sect to come? Why are there so many people here to get our girls?

How high could Zhuo Fan even be in the Demon Scheming Sect? Your Sect Leader is willing to fight Mystical Heaven Sect all because he asked? Demon Scheming Sect looked stunned.

The other two girls were excited. Across all western lands, only one man had such a charisma to get so many people to move, Zhuo Fan.

Not that others lacked the power, but none were crazy enough to go to such lengths as attacking a sect for a girl.

None but Zhuo Fan

Whoos.h.!.+

Zhuo Fan led the descent. Kui Langs group rushed over with grat.i.tude, Steward Zhuo, your name is so widespread and heavy that Sect Leader gave you such force. I am in awe of being able to follow someone like you!

Zhuo Fan however made a gesture for him to keep silent. Keep it down. This isnt Xie Wuyues doing. Luckily he was away and I could bring so many.

Eh? Kui Langs scalp was numb.

Also, these guys dont know why Ive brought them yet. So dont say anything and leave the explaining to me. Zhuo Fan grinned at the four.

Yet they were all sh.e.l.lshocked. Kui Lang was even shaking all over.

[Steward Zhuo, you didnt tell them anything and still brought them? When they find out were going to save our girls, wont they turn on us?]

Kui Lang felt like crying.

[I can even see my master over there!]

His master was against being with Han Qianying and he was wondering just how p.i.s.sed off hed be once he found out he was here just to save her

Zhuo Fan patted his shoulder, Do you want to save her?

I do!

How much?

With every fiber of my being! Kui Lang spoke heavily.

Zhuo Fan nodded and smiled, Then leave it all to me!

With a wise look in his eyes, Zhuo Fan turned to the elders and released his mighty aura.

Seeing him so high and mighty, Kui Lang finally realized that he was unlike any of them.

They were still hesitating even if they wanted to do this, while Zhuo Fan was a man of action and determination. That was why he, as a mere disciple, led most of the Demon Scheming Sects elders and venerables
