"Sect Master, please don't be deceived by him!" Lin Qingbei stepped forward and said, "This matter is indeed the work of the Bai family, and there is absolutely no mistake!"
"Since it is the work of the Bai family, the Sect Master will naturally find out the truth!"
One of the elders spoke, "Are you, the Lin family, hindering this so much, as if what they said is true, that your Lin family is the mastermind behind this matter!"
"Elder, please see clearly, how would our Lin family dare to do such a thing!" Lin Qingbei quickly explained.
"Enough, no more talk!"
The Misty Sect Master said coldly, "I will send people to investigate. As for whether this matter is the work of the Lin family, it remains to be verified!"
Lin Qingbei nodded slightly, not daring to say anything more, but he was a little worried. After all, when dealing with Elder Shangguan that day, I was really found out. His Lin family was probably in great trouble.
At this moment, the Misty Sect Master looked at Lu Fan: "You are so young to have reached this level, and you were even able to injure Elder Shangguan. You are not simple at all!"
"You flatter me!"
Lu Fan smiled faintly, "If Elder Shangguan hadn't been so aggressive, I wouldn't have acted against him. However, I also know that the Misty Sect's foundation would not kill him, wouldn't that be seeking death!"
The elders present nodded one after another. Lu Fan's words were true. No one was a fool. It seemed that the Lin family was indeed suspicious.
"Grandfather, what do we do now!"
Lin Qingbei said softly, his expression changing slightly. He didn't know things would turn out this way, otherwise, he wouldn't have done such a thing.
"We can only wait and see. If it is really found out, I will resist them with all my might, and you will escape alone!" the Lin family master said seriously.
"How can this be? I am also a member of the Lin family. How can I live a life of cowardice!" Lin Qingbei said solemnly.
"The bloodline of the Lin family must not be broken. Nothing must happen to you!" The Lin family master said seriously, "My eyelids have been twitching, and I am afraid disaster is imminent. You seize the opportunity and escape this place, and never return to Baishui City again!"
Lin Qingbei frowned. He now understood that this matter was very likely to be exposed. By then, they would have no way to escape, and the Lin family would collapse without a fight.
It was a pity that his plan did not succeed, otherwise, it would not have been like this.
Not long after, the Lin family master said with a smile, "Sect Master, I suddenly remembered that there is evidence within my Lin family. I will order someone to fetch it now!"
"Evidence?"
The Misty Sect Master smiled, "Let the elders go! No one from the Lin family is allowed to leave this place!"
The Lin family master was slightly startled. He knew very well that by saying this, the Misty Sect Master already suspected their Lin family, and they were probably doomed.
Thinking of this, the Lin family master looked grief-stricken and helpless.
Lu Fan stood aside, his expression calmer. Since they had not done anything, they naturally had no fear.
"The Lin family is truly ambitious!"
Bai Xiaoqing said, "To have done such a thing, fortunately, the Misty Sect people were wise, otherwise the Bai family would be finished!"
"It's too early to say this now!"
The Bai family master said, "Whether evidence can be found is still unknown!"
Seeing that he could not leave, the Lin family master's expression turned cold, and he looked at the many guards of the Lin family, giving them a look. Things had come to this, and they could only fight for it.
At that sudden moment, several guards of the Lin family took action, instantly dealing with several disciples of the Misty Sect, and the scene instantly became chaotic.
The Lin family also swarmed forward, wanting to break through and escape. Now they were in a desperate situation, and staying here was meaningless.
"Surround them all, don't let any of them go!"
The Misty Sect Master's expression was cold. He never expected that the Lin family would be so bold as to attack him directly, without any regard. Several sect disciples died tragically, and as the Sect Master, he could not escape responsibility.
Many experts from the Misty Sect made their move. The Lin family master also exuded a powerful aura, carving out a bloody path. Two elders heard the commotion and moved to capture the Lin family master.
For a time, on the street outside the Bai family mansion, shouts of killing filled the air. Although the Lin family was not as good as the Misty Sect, they did have some foundation. Coupled with the surprise attack, it caused the Misty Sect people to be caught off guard.
"Should we make a move!"
Bai Xiaoqing was eager to try. The Lin family had framed the Bai family and failed. Now, he did not want to miss this opportunity.
"This kind of killing is too bloody!"
Lu Fan said, "Let's stay put. It's best not to help either side. This matter has nothing to do with us."
Bai Xiaoqing was stunned for a moment. What Lu Fan said was not wrong. This matter had nothing to do with them. If they made a move, wouldn't they be asking for trouble?
In a blink of an eye, many experts from the Misty Sect controlled the situation, and the Lin family members all died tragically, with no resistance.
Except for the Lin family master, only a few figures from the Lin family's high-ranking members managed to escape.
After capturing the Lin family master, the elder looked at the Sect Master, "How does the Sect Master plan to deal with him?"
The Misty Sect Master glanced at him, then said coldly, "You said before that Elder Shangguan was your friend. He helped you deal with the Bai family, and you are repaying kindness with enmity?"
"Hahaha..."
The Lin family master laughed, "Naturally, it's for power. Only by killing him will you deal with the Bai family. In this way, my Lin family will be able to cover the sky with one hand in Baishui City!"
"For your greed, you disregard your friends. People like you don't deserve to live!"
The Misty Sect Master struck out with a palm, carrying the might of thunder.
After the Lin family master was killed, the Misty Sect Master said, "Today's matter is a misunderstanding. The Lin family has been dealt with. From now on, the Misty Sect and the Bai family will have no more grudges!"
"Thank you, Sect Master!"
The Bai family master quickly cupped his fists, filled with emotion. He thought that this matter would implicate the Bai family, but he did not expect the Misty Sect Master to be so righteous.
"Little brother, you are not an ordinary person. If you have the opportunity, you can come and visit our Misty Sect!"
The Misty Sect Master said, "Our Misty Sect happens to be short of an elder position!"
Many people present were surprised. They did not expect the Misty Sect Master to be so direct in wanting to recruit Lu Fan into the Misty Sect.
"Thank you for your favor, Sect Master!"
Lu Fan smiled and said, "Unfortunately, I still have other things to do, so I probably can't accept it!"
"It's okay, I was just saying it casually. If you don't want to, I can't force you." The Misty Sect Master waved his hand.
The elders of the Misty Sect exchanged glances, with meaningful expressions. They had never seen the Misty Sect Master value someone so highly, directly offering an elder position. This was not the treatment that ordinary people could enjoy.
After the Misty Sect people left, Lu Fan smiled and said, "The Bai family's affairs are finally over. It's time for me to leave!"
"Where is Mr. Lu going?" Bai Xiaoqing asked, "This Spirit Realm is boundless. I don't know when we will meet again!"
