To the Main Plot
Ling Tai Xu and Hu Man on stage discussed as well, not caring about elders and disciples overhearing them.
"Hu Man, what do you think they want to acquire so bad that they don't care about ruining their reputation and risk losing their position as successors?"
"I actually think they never really cared about their reputation, even if they are willful they would refrain from fighting any moment their thoughts differ if they cared about having a good reputation. They are already famous as Tyrants, what reputation do they to defend. Anyway, they were selected as successor for their battle strength no one in same generation can match. Unlike yours, who needs a righteous character and support of Multiple Elders to become Leader. For them, as long as their strength is high enough, bad reputation is non-existent. It's just you people always trying to be on moral high ground."
"You do have a lot of complaints towards us,huh. Or are you angry because you can't control your own force and now, you just want to take out your anger on unrelated people. I will bear it then. After all, you are a truly pitiful father who was forced to give away his eldest daughter so his force won't break. I wonder how long that little girl will be able to delay your internal strife."
"You sure know a lot of inside details, however, instead of mine you should be worrying about your force more, much more. Compared to Long Jun and Fang Zaiji, your Su Yan is but a greenhouse flower who can neither compare with them in strength nor in ruthlessness. You know, her Title---"SHUT UP." Long Tai Xu shouted, unable to bear his Sect successor being insulted.
"Tch.Tch." Hu Man clicked his tongue twice and continued mocking him,"Old man, with your character, it is surprising you survived till now."
Ling Tai Xu,"It is only natural to be protective of one's own force."
Hu Man,"Yet you take every chance you get to mock me for making the only choice I had to save my force."
While the Two were bickering, Fang Yun left with Fang Zaiji and Long Jun silently.
For the next few days, this matter stayed topic of discussion and was discussed by everyone from Cultivator to Mortal in the 600km territory of High Heaven Pavillion, Blood Battle Hall and Storm Hall.
Words spoken about them were mostly curses.
----Time Skip----
2 Years Later
In these 2 Years, Fang Zaiji and Long Jun had a exciting life of being taught various Fighting Techniques and usage of different weapons by Fang Yun and were traveling around the Great Han Dynasty and experiencing different shades of life.
Living together for 2 Years, all Three of them were now well aware of each other character and sometimes drank together.
To both Long Jun and Fang Zaiji, living out of Sect didn't affect them much, with Fang Yun, a Immortal Ascension Realm Cultivator with them. They encountered no trouble. Living their life just as they lived in Sect.
Toying with any Mortal or Cultivator lower in Realm than them they encountered in way.
Right now, all three of them were in Central Capital of Great Han Dynasty, in house of Qiu Family, one of 8 Great Families.
Long Jun and Fang Yun were ready to leave, they had decided to leave Fang Zaiji here for the time being.
"Father, Spider. I will be back in some months, take care of each other till then." Fang Zaiji said with a light smile.
Fang Yun wordlessly spread out his Divine Sense, enveloped Long Jun and bodies of both of them started fading like mirages.
A voice rang in Fang Zaiji mind,"Son, you take care as well. Don't mess around too much, alright. Remember to be always Cautious."

Blood Battle Gang
Mining Site
Long Jun, Long Zai Tian and Fang Yun were discussing in a tent.
Fang Yun," Phase 1 is complete now. We have support of one of Eight Great Families and they have agreed to prevent anyone from capital form interfering, when do you want to start Phase 2 of our plan? "
Long Zai Tian," We can proceed with Phase 2 anytime. "
Long Jun," We will wait until I am done preparing some things. Till then, I will abuse my authority and create some trouble for the Sect. "
After saying what he wanted, Long Jun stood up and walked away.
Not stopping him to ask what he is talking about Fang Yun asked Long Zai Tian instead," What is he talking about? Do you know something? "
Long Zai Tian, " No idea. Moreover, he was with you for the past two years. Did he not tell you?"
Fang Yun," He did say, he wanted to check on some backhands he left as a surprise for his father-in-law. Right, he also told me to ask you to accompany him for his visit to High Heaven Pavillion."
Long Zai Tian laughed and commented," Hu Man is going to suffer bad. But, High Heaven Pavillion, do you think he is going there to beat those siblings? "
Fang Yun," Maybe, he does have a bad temper. "
Long Zai Tian, " Did his temperament not improve at all? "
Fang Yun, " No. The kids are still wild. However, they control themselves better now. "

Inside High Heaven Pavillion
Meeting Hall
All 11 Elders of High Heaven Pavillion were gathered.
" I, Long Jun, am here with a proposal of my Sect."
" The previous successor of Blood Battle Gang, huh. When were you freed of your imprisonment? " Long Tai Xu asked calmly ignoring Long Jun claim about being here with a proposal.
Uncaring about being called previous successor Long Jun asked in return," I am here with a Joint Proposal of Storm House and Blood Battle Gang. Would Pavillion Master like to hear my Proposal? "
Long Tai Xu changed his question, " Are you here to trouble the siblings for reporting your crimes? You do know, just like you, they also have a Elder as their Grandfather, and he wouldn't let you harm them. "
Long Jun smiled with a twitching face and said, " Pavilion Master, I would like to Present My, Sorry, My Sect's proposal to you. That is both Storm House and Blood Battle—"Wait." Long Tai Xu intrepted him.
" You are a failure of a diplomate. Why are you so confused about who you are here to represent? Sometimes, it's your sect, sometimes it's Storm House and Blood Battle Group and sometimes it's you. " Long Tai Xu spoke looking at him mockingly.
Long Jun, " Storm House and Blood Battle Group want to hold a compitition between our Three Sects and give a huge opportunity to the one who gets 1st place. The compitition will be held 4 days later. It is a must for all Disciples to participate. After all, we are righteous sects and give equal opportunities to all from Sect Outer disciples to Successors. "
Long Tai Xu didn't seem to take his words seriously, " All this bullshit just to fight Su Yan?"
Long Jun stayed silent for some seconds," Yes. Arrange a fight between me and her right now if you don't like it. "
Long Tai Xu, " Openly threatening to kill my Sect disciples in name of compitition if I don't agree, who came up with this idea? "
Long Jun remained silent.
Getting no reply, Long Tai Xu changed the topic, " Alright, I agree. You know where the Sect Arena is, right? Meet me there. I will bring Su Yun there myself within half an hour. "
With a Smile, Long Jun walked out of Hall.
All Elders who were standing at sides silently looked at their Pavillion Master with evident confusion.
2nd Elder couldn't hold back and asked directly, " Pavillion Master, why did you do this? Su Yan is our Sect successor, her life will be at risk if she fights Long Jun. Her life is much more important than other disciples for the future of our Sect. She is the Future Sect Master. "
" As her Grandfather, your Stance is right. However, as an Elder, you should put the well-being of Sect before Relatives. Like you said, as much as this is a risk for her this is also an opportunity for her to kill Long Jun. "
" Pavillion Master, are you kidding me? Kill Long Jun? He was a monstrous beast two years ago. Who knows what he has learned in these two years away from world. "
" I was just entertaining you, since you were being so delusional. Life at risk?, it is not a life and death fight. I would rather die fighting then let anyone walk into my Sect and kill our Successor before all Sect Elders and walk away. "
There conversation relaxed the atmosphere of the hall.
" You know as well that kid loves fighting. He is always fighting Fang Zaiji and treat him like a brother. If fighting Su Yan can bring them closer it will increase our Sect future Survival chances. "
