Starting As A Clan Leader: My Rules Are A Bit Wild

Chapter 16: I'll Go for the Jackpot First

"Master Lin."

At this moment, Elder Zhou from the Peach Blossom Sect couldn't bear it anymore, but he also didn't dare to underestimate Lin Fan.

Although he was a fool, damn fools were the hardest to deal with! Especially when there were a few old guys helping the fool. So, he addressed him as "Master."

"Although the disciples of the Golden Eagle Sect were a bit impulsive, it was you who were in the wrong first. Acting like this, aren't you afraid of provoking a war between sects? Your Embracing Moon Sect is already in a precarious situation, and I'm afraid it won't be able to withstand such turmoil.

This is going too far."

"Too far?"

Lin Fan sneered, "If I were to bring people to your door and without saying a word, turn your Peach Blossom Sect disciples into pig heads, would your Peach Blossom Sect be willing to endure such humiliation?"

"It's not appropriate to generalize."

"What's not appropriate?"

Lin Fan didn't buy it at all, "You don't need to say more!"

"On the contrary, I want to ask you, haven't you heard an old saying?"

"What old saying?" Elder Zhou frowned.

He cursed inwardly.

This little bastard was really stubborn, not giving in no matter what. Why did he have to speak up for the Golden Eagle Sect? What does it have to do with me? It's not my disciples who are at a disadvantage.

He regretted it secretly.

"Since you're here, just accept it."

Elder Zhou: "???"

"Haven't you read any books? You look puzzled and don't understand?" Lin Fan crossed his arms, "Then let me reluctantly tell you the meaning of this phrase. It means, since you're here, just bury yourself here."

"Let me ask you, do you... think that my Embracing Moon Sect has good feng shui, and you all want to be buried here?"

Damn it!

Elder Zhou's face turned liver-colored.

Does this phrase mean that?

Even if I haven't heard this phrase before, I still think it's inappropriate, right?

No, I regret it!

Why did I bother with this stubborn fool?

He noticed that the "light" in the eyes of his disciples behind him was gradually dimming, and Elder Zhou shouted that something was wrong.

Fortunately, at this moment, an elder from the Eight Sword Sect jumped out.

He also felt that something was wrong.

We three sects came to cause trouble and demand an explanation together, but as soon as we met, we were suppressed by your Embracing Moon Sect. Seeing our disciples becoming more and more restless, how can we let things continue like this?

Don't we care about our face?

Moreover, it's the Golden Eagle Sect that's losing face, not my Eight Sword Sect!

It's better to skip this matter quickly.

The elder from the Eight Sword Sect said calmly, "Master Lin has some points, but now, you've already hit each other's faces. Shouldn't we talk about the main issue?"

"Before this, more than a month ago, your Embracing Moon Sect disrupted our sect's recruitment. You should know that the future of the sect lies in its disciples. Your actions have undermined the foundation of our sect!"

"If you don't give an explanation, this matter won't be resolved."

"Oh?"

Lin Fan still crossed his arms and said calmly, "So, what kind of explanation does this elder want?"

"..."

Elder Wang from the Eight Sword Sect twitched his mouth.

What kind of words are these?

What kind of words are these?

At this time, shouldn't you show weakness, say some nice words, compensate with some cultivation resources, and treat us to good food and drink?

Your indifferent attitude, and even wanting to fight, makes it difficult for me to handle!

Elder Wang was at a loss for words for a moment.

"Alright, since you're in a hurry, I won't talk too much!" The elder from the Golden Eagle Sect stood up angrily, "I have a solution."

"Speak!"

Lin Fan glanced at him indifferently, as if he didn't even care, which made him furious.

"Hmph!"

"Since you're snatching our disciples as well for recruitment, then let the newly recruited disciples from both sides fight a few battles, regardless of life or death!"

"After this battle, we'll call it quits."

"Dare you?!"

Elders from the Peach Blossom Sect and the Eight Sword Sect nodded one after another, indicating their approval of this proposal.

Lin Fan almost burst out laughing.

You bunch of small fries, you want the newly recruited disciples to fight against Xiao Ling'er?

Don't you understand what a protagonist template is?

"Details."

Lin Fan didn't refuse, but asked for more details.

This proposal, surprisingly, wasn't bad, at least for the Embracing Moon Sect.

Since that's the case, why refuse?

At most, it's just asking Xiao Ling'er to be more restrained and not too ostentatious.

"Our three sects will each send three people, while your Embracing Moon Sect will send nine!"

Elder Wang presented the regulations: "After this battle, regardless of victory or defeat, life or death, this cause and effect will come to an end!"

"It is said that there are over ten thousand people who came to pay respects to your Embracing Moon Sect this year. I suppose you can still come up with just nine disciples?"

Elder Zhou sneered, "Let your new disciples from Embracing Moon Sect come down!"

They naturally assumed that the Embracing Moon Sect disciples present were all "old timers."

With just the foundation of Embracing Moon Sect, can new disciples still advance to the Condensing Essence stage within a short month?

What a joke!

Lin Fan smiled, "I have no objections to the solution you proposed, but my Embracing Moon Sect has only recruited one new disciple this year. If we are to fight, it can only be a war of attrition."

"I don't mind, and I don't think my disciples mind either."

"I wonder what your three sects think?"

He smiled, but in his heart, it was ice-cold.

After this battle, regardless of victory or defeat, will the cause and effect come to an end?

But whether this cause and effect is resolved or not, it's not up to you to decide.

"???"

The elders and disciples of the three sects, whether new or old, were all a little confused when they heard this.

Over ten thousand people, but only recruited one. When did your Embracing Moon Sect have such courage and prestige?

That's not all, you even proposed a war of attrition, one against nine, and asked if we agree???

Where does your confidence come from?!

And...

Do you look down on us like this?

"Youngster, don't be arrogant!" Elder Wang's face turned ugly.

They naturally knew that there must be a problem with Lin Fan's proposal.

But no matter what the problem was, they couldn't refuse.

They were even thinking, could it be that Lin Fan was ultimately admitting defeat?

Do you want to use the death of the new disciple to resolve the cause and effect?

"Hmph."

"Since that's the case, let your disciple come down from the mountain." Elder of the Golden Eagle Sect said coldly, "My disciple will go first, I'm in a hurry."

"Come down from the mountain? What mountain? Hasn't she been here all along?"

"Linger, come out."

"You've heard the cause and effect, come out and learn from the high disciples of the three sects. Whether you live or die, it's up to you."

Lin Fan spoke lightly.

Right here?!

The elders of the three sects frowned.

Could it be that the newcomer has reached the Condensing Essence stage?

They couldn't help but look at the seven mascots, guessing who the newcomer of this year was.

But they never expected that Xiao Ling'er took a few steps forward and then turned to Lin Fan, bowing, "Yes, Master."

The elders of the three sects: "Σ(⊙▽⊙"????

Condensing Essence Fifth Layer?!

Are you fucking kidding me?!

The disciples of the Golden Eagle Sect, on the other hand, were excited. One of them stepped forward confidently, "Let me go first!"

"Just a disciple of Embracing Moon Sect, my fellow senior brothers, watch me easily suppress her! I'll take the first prize."

Suppress my ass!

The elder of the Golden Eagle Sect's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

"Master Lin!"

He hurriedly spoke, "As the master of a sect, how can you be so untrustworthy!"

"How could this girl possibly be the new disciple of your sect?!"

Condensing Essence Fifth Layer in a month, even on the verge of the Sixth Layer. Not to mention your Embracing Moon Sect, even in a top sect, she would be considered a Saintess!

Even if she entered with some foundation, it's impossible to progress so quickly. Why would she choose your Embracing Moon Sect?

"Hmph."

But at this moment, Li Changshou spoke up, "I, Li Changshou, hereby make a solemn vow. If Xiao Ling'er is not the only disciple recruited by Embracing Moon Sect this year, I will immediately have a heart collapse, go mad, and die."

The elders of the three sects were suddenly shocked.

Fuck!

A solemn vow!

Are you serious?!

What... what should we do now?
