"Boom!"
The windmill emitting blue light dimd, and Ralnor Warren spat out a mouthful of blood, his whole body struck by willow branches, instantly flying backward dozens of miles.
The victor had been decided.
Flowing Cloud did not continue to attack; his expression was calm as he hung in mid-air, as if he had done sothing trivial.
Even though this outco was anticipated, Carson Flores and his companions were still overjoyed to see Flowing Cloud win so effortlessly.
Fitzroy Flores’s face was pale; he never expected that Ralnor Warren would be defeated so cleanly and swiftly.
From start to finish, Ralnor Warren’s attacks posed no threat to Flowing Cloud whatsoever!
It’s over!
He feared his son’s death was in vain!
Other mbers of the Illusory Moon Sect also looked alard, many cursing inwardly. "Magnus Flores, you ruthless fool, you’ve offended soone on the level of a boss of bosses!"
Others bring trouble to their parents, but not only do you trouble your parents, you trouble the entire Sect!
The Sect Master even brought out their backing, and still couldn’t resolve the matter. What’s left to be done?
Man is like at on a chopping board; lying flat, waiting to be slaughtered.
Just as the Illusory Moon Sect bullied the Wind Snow Sect before, and the Wind Snow Sect could only bow and give in—even handing over the Sect Master’s granddaughter for the sake of the Sect.
Karma has co full circle; the Illusory Moon Sect’s initial bullying of the Wind Snow Sect has now returned to them.
Ralnor Warren turned pale, cupped his hands, and said, "Your prowess is formidable; I am not your match. Snow Wind Island will no longer ddle in this matter!"
Flowing Cloud nodded slightly, "Please leave."
Ralnor Warren acted decisively, turned around, and walked away without even greeting Fitzroy Flores.
Fitzroy Flores was thoroughly desperate, so when Flowing Cloud descended from the sky, Fitzroy Flores humbly cupped his hands in salute.
"I was unaware that you, senior, were a master from the Dragon Mountain Sect and acted wrongly. We are at your command, and we will comply without exception."
Flowing Cloud asked coldly, "Wasn’t it who killed your son?"
Fitzroy Flores replied calmly, "He did what he shouldn’t have done, offended those he shouldn’t have offended, not only causing his own death but implicating the Sect. As his father, I am heartbroken; as Sect Master, I must be responsible for the Illusory Moon Sect. Senior, whatever you request, I will endeavor to comply. Just spare the others in the Illusory Moon Sect, they are innocent."
"Innocent?"
Flowing Cloud sneered, "Do you dare to speak of innocence with ?"
Fitzroy Flores did not rebut or explain, simply waiting quietly, his deanor respectful, even humble.
Fitzroy Flores lowered his head; naturally, things would end here.
Flowing Cloud stated plainly, "We are taking Cirelle Moonshadow."
"Fine!"
"The compensation the Wind Snow Sect gave you, I will take."
"No problem."
"Although I acted out of disapproval at seeing a woman bullied to such an extent, and it has nothing to do with the Wind Snow Sect, if you decide to take revenge on the Wind Snow Sect because I killed your son, I will return to the Illusory Moon Sect."
"Our grudge with the Wind Snow Sect ended the mont we received the compensation. Today’s matter arose because my son committed an offence, deserving his fate. It has nothing to do with the Wind Snow Sect; I will not, nor dare to seek revenge on the Wind Snow Sect."
Fitzroy Flores quickly stated, fearful that Flowing Cloud might be uneasy, further adding, "Immortal Path is long; though a son is gone, he can be reborn. But if the Illusory Moon Sect is no more, and I am dead, then there’s truly nothing left. Rest assured, senior, I know the weight of things."
Flowing Cloud nodded with indifference, ignoring Fitzroy Flores, then turned and said, "Let’s go!"
Fitzroy Flores cupped his hands, bidding farewell to Flowing Cloud and his companions as they departed, only standing upright once they were out of sight.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; fortunately, the other side did not eliminate them entirely, or with their strength, no one would have escaped today.
"Sect Master, this matter..."
Fitzroy Flores turned back, saying solemnly, "Let this matter end here; the Dragon Mountain Sect is out of our league."
"What about the Junior Sect Master..."
Fitzroy Flores shook his head, "His deeds brought misfortune upon him, almost endangering the entire Sect. As his father, I am partly to bla, but thankfully no major disaster occurred. Let this matter rest."
Everyone breathed another sigh of relief; they had feared Fitzroy Flores might go mad and use everything to avenge his son.
If he were to do that, they’d have to reconsider whether he could still lead the Sect, because that would an heading towards death.
But since he knows that their challenger is too formidable, all is well.
...
Away from the Illusory Moon Sect, several figures landed on a peak.
"The matter here is settled; I must leave to investigate the master behind the Ocean King attack..."
Carson Flores cupped his hands, "Thank you for taking the ti to help with this trouble, senior. Otherwise, even if I could manage to take Miss Moonshadow away, the subsequent problems would be endless."
Flowing Cloud waved his hand, "A re trifle; don’t ntion it. Where are you heading next?"
Carson Flores replied, "Azure Divine Sect."
Flowing Cloud glanced at Cirelle Moonshadow and asked, "What about you, heading back to the Wind Snow Sect?"
Cirelle Moonshadow shook her head firmly, "I won’t go back."
Carson Flores was slightly surprised, "You are alone; if you don’t return to the Wind Snow Sect, where will you go?"
