Capítulo 1089: Chapter 1090: Rejecting the Celestial Dragon Sect
The Celestial Dragon Sect Leader pondered for a mont before saying to Xuan Chong, “Xuan Chong, you’ve only lost one Grand Elder, why not just let it go?”
Xuan Chong had not expected the Celestial Dragon Sect Leader to urge him to spare Lin Fei. But if he let Lin Fei go, how could he gain the trust of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect?
“Sect Leader Long, although I would like to show this favor, if I let Lin Fei go, not only would I fail to account for the deceased Grand Elder, but also cannot give the Profound Celestial Sword Sect an explanation. I hope Sect Leader Long can understand,” Xuan Chong said, clasping his fist.
His aning was obvious; he did not want to spare Lin Fei.
“Sect Leader Long, just like Sect Leader Xuan, the vengeance for my son cannot go unanswered. I hope Sect Leader Long can treat us fairly,” Gao Yi also said, clasping his fist to the Celestial Dragon Sect Leader.
The Celestial Dragon Sect Leader smiled and said, “I won’t forbid you from seeking revenge; I’m rely suggesting that old foes should reconcile rather than create more conflict. For fairness, you should fight one-on-one.”
Gao Yi and Xuan Chong exchanged glances; they both wanted to kill Lin Fei together.
But now, with the Celestial Dragon Sect Leader seeking justice and showing bias towards Lin Fei, any joint action would displease him.
Therefore, Gao Yi and Xuan Chong naturally couldn’t join forces against Lin Fei.
However, even without teaming up, one-on-one battles would be enough to defeat Lin Fei.
“Fine, as Sect Leader Long suggests, we won’t join forces and will face Lin Fei one-on-one,” Gao Yi said to Sect Leader Long.
Sect Leader Long nodded, “That works.”
However, after saying this, Sect Leader Long turned to Lin Fei, “Lin Fei, although Gao Yi and Xuan Chong are no longer teaming up against you, even one-on-one is very fair, but I must remind you, they are ranked second and third in the Pacific Ocean Secret Realm sects for strength.”
Lin Fei replied to Sect Leader Long, “Thank you for the reminder, and for seeking justice for , Sect Leader Long.”
Sect Leader Long stroked his beard with a smile, saying, “Lin Fei, no need for courtesy. I’ve heard from the Third Elder Qing Xuan that your strength is extraordinary, truly a rare talent. If you’re willing to join the Celestial Dragon Sect and serve , I could resolve your issues with the Divine Sword Sect and the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.”
Upon hearing the Sect Leader’s words, Gao Yi and Xuan Chong’s faces tensed up. They silently thought it was no wonder the Sect Leader was speaking for Lin Fei; he wanted to recruit Lin Fei into the Celestial Dragon Sect.
If Lin Fei agreed to join the Celestial Dragon Sect, they wouldn’t be able to settle accounts with him.
“Thank you, Sect Leader Long, for your kindness. However, I am already the Sect Leader of the Flying Heaven Sword Sect and cannot abandon it.” However, Lin Fei politely declined Sect Leader Long’s invitation.
Lin Fei’s refusal not only left Sect Leader Long astonished, but Gao Yi, Xuan Chong, and everyone from the three great sects could hardly believe what they heard.
Lin Fei refused to join the Celestial Dragon Sect?
And rejected the invitation from the leader of the Celestial Dragon Sect!
Everyone knows that the Celestial Dragon Sect is the leader among the thirty-six Secret Realm sects, a legend with thousands of masters and tens of thousands of disciples, its power almost unmatched.
For legendary masters, it is an honor to join the Celestial Dragon Sect.
But Lin Fei actually refused.
This was simply denying Sect Leader Long and the Celestial Dragon Sect.
Gao Yi and Xuan Chong secretly rejoiced: this Lin Fei is truly fearless, daring not to give face to Sect Leader Long. Just wait for Sect Leader Long to handle him!
Sect Leader Long indeed felt a bit awkward since he, as the leading figure among the Pacific Ocean Secret Realm legends, had never been rejected before.
However, this also proved that Lin Fei was indeed extraordinary, and he had not misjudged him.
Thus, Sect Leader Long transford his embarrassnt into a smile and said to Lin Fei, “Lin Fei, you are truly loyal to the Flying Heaven Sword Sect, and such loyalty is rare. This makes very appreciative.
How about this? Why not have you and the Flying Heaven Sword Sect join the Celestial Dragon Sect? You still remain the Sect Leader of the Flying Heaven Sword Sect, but from now on, it will be part of the Celestial Dragon Sect’s power, how about it?”
Gao Yi, Xuan Chong, and the people from the Divine Sword Sect and Profound Celestial Sword Sect all showed expressions of surprise.
Even the masters of the Celestial Dragon Sect were surprised.
The people from the Divine Sword Sect and Profound Celestial Sword Sect began to discuss in whispers.
“The Celestial Dragon Sect has never cared about forming alliances.”
“Today, they unexpectedly want to absorb the Flying Heaven Sword Sect under their influence?”
“Are they doing it just to recruit Lin Fei?”
“Since when did the Celestial Dragon Sect beco so willing to accept talents?”
The people from the Divine Sword Sect and Profound Celestial Sword Sect were deeply surprised because as the leader among sects, the Celestial Dragon Sect has always been an unreachable presence.
For Sect Leader Long to lower his posture and invite Lin Fei and the Flying Heaven Sword Sect to join is unprecedented.
Gao Yi and Xuan Chong were dumbfounded, while the Flying Heaven Sword Sect, from elders to legendary masters and disciples, secretly rejoiced thinking of having the Celestial Dragon Sect as a backing, the Divine Sword Sect and Profound Celestial Sword Sect couldn’t touch them.
However, Lin Fei’s response once again surprised everyone: “Sect Leader Long, I’m really sorry, but I’m used to being independent and don’t wish to be subordinate to anyone. I hope you understand.”
Although Sect Leader Long showed great appreciation and tried hard to recruit him into the Celestial Dragon Sect,
ultimately, Lin Fei would still be under Sect Leader Long’s command. Lin Fei fought with sect leaders during his inauguration ceremony, striving for a place for himself and the Flying Heaven Sword Sect.
Why would he bow down to the Celestial Dragon Sect?
Therefore, Lin Fei didn’t hesitate to refuse Sect Leader Long.
Sect Leader Long’s face imdiately turned gloomy; he had lowered his posture repeatedly, yet Lin Fei continually refused him.
“Fine, since you wish to be independent and not subordinate to anyone, I will not force you.”
Seeing Sect Leader Long’s displeased expression, Gao Yi and Xuan Chong secretly rejoiced; Lin Fei didn’t know what was good for him and dared to offend Sect Leader Long, seemingly digging his own grave.
“Sect Leader Long, let and Sect Leader Xuan teach this kid a lesson,” Gao Yi said, testing Sect Leader Long.
Sect Leader Long’s expression remained calm as still water, saying, “I have no interest in your disputes with him, but as always, be fair, don’t let it be said that you bully with numbers.”
Gao Yi and Xuan Chong realized that although Sect Leader Long spoke of fairness, he no longer appeared to favor Lin Fei like before.
As long as Sect Leader Long no longer shielded Lin Fei, it was good news for them.
“Yes, Sect Leader Long, we certainly won’t bully with numbers,” Gao Yi and Xuan Chong said with feigned sincerity.
anwhile, everyone in the Flying Heaven Sword Sect couldn’t help feeling tense; they hadn’t expected Lin Fei to reject Sect Leader Long’s invitation.
However, no matter what decision Lin Fei made, they all supported Lin Fei.
Moreover, they believed whatever decision Lin Fei made was right, without any disagreent.
In their hearts, Lin Fei’s status is irreplaceable.
“Sect Leader Xuan, let handle this kid first,” Gao Yi said impatiently, looking at Xuan Chong.
Xuan Chong’s eyes flickered with sharpness, saying, “Fine, then let Sect Leader Gao strike first. If he isn’t enough, I’ll strike next.”
“Hahaha, Sect Leader Xuan, I would struggle against this boy? Are you mocking ?” Gao Yi laughed loudly.
