Chapter 1179: Chapter 1179: The Enemy’s Reconnaissance

Thinking about it, Ning Fan suddenly recalled what the Fire Phoenix had said before.

"If you come to know anything related to your mother through hearing, it will attract formidable enemies."

"These formidable enemies are so powerful that you are currently no match for them."

If the Spectral Skeleton and the Fire Phoenix came from the same place, then what he said was understandable.

It was highly probable that the enemies the Fire Phoenix and the Spectral Skeleton spoke of were the same group.

"Sect Master Ning, we have finished absorbing,"

While he was contemplating, the Fierce Lion and the others had already stopped their Cultivation and gathered in front of him.

Ning Fan nodded, his gaze fell on the two Supreme Elders on the ground, and he said solemnly, "Gentlemen, what do you think should be done with them?"

Upon hearing this, the four Sect Masters all showed hesitant expressions, unsure of how to begin.

After all, these were their Supreme Elders.

Vice Sect Master Zhuang Peng said resentfully, "These bastards almost killed our Sect Master; they must be eliminated!"

Huang Gu also agreed, "That’s right! They’re unconscious now, but who knows what they’ll do to the Sect Master if they wake up! We absolutely cannot let them off!"

In response, the Sect Master of the Blood Lion Sect, Fierce Lion, hurriedly pleaded, "Sect Master Ning, our Supreme Elders were only testing you before, they didn’t really intend to kill!"

Sect Master Shen Ning quickly echoed, "Yes, Sect Master Ning, the prime culprits of the assassination are now executed; please spare the others."

The other two Sect Masters also spoke up, requesting Ning Fan to spare the two Supreme Elders.

Ning Fan pondered for a moment, then said solemnly, "Considering that they did not actually strike to kill, I can spare their lives, but the Four Sects must now submit to me, otherwise your two sects may cease to exist."

Hearing this, the four Sect Masters looked at each other and quickly nodded in agreement, expressing their willingness to submit to Ning Fan.

Given the current situation, even if the Supreme Elders disagreed, there was nothing they could do.

Ning Fan alone was enough to annihilate their four sects.

Seeing this, Ning Fan nodded, and declared solemnly, "Good, from today onwards, you are under my command, holding the same status as the other two."

These two were Huang Gu and Vice Sect Master Zhuang Peng, who had been following Ning Fan for the longest time.

Seeing this turn of events, Huang Gu felt it was somewhat surreal.

He had only been the Sect Master of a Lower-Ranked Sect before, and now he was on an equal footing with the Sect Masters of middle-ranked sects—it seemed incredible.

Although the Fierce Lion and others were reluctant, thinking of Ning Fan’s strength, they finally had to accept the fact.

Soon, the two Supreme Elders also woke up from their unconscious state.

Their faces showed astonishment upon learning that Ning Fan had killed the Spectral Skeleton, disbelief written all over their faces.

The Spectral Skeleton was far beyond their strength limit.

Even at their peak, they could not have been a match for the Spectral Skeleton, and Ning Fan had actually killed it!

This strength directly discouraged the Supreme Elders from trying to oppose or discipline Ning Fan.

"Are you joking? They couldn’t even handle the Spectral Skeleton, much less these old folks."

"Sect Master Ning, with such strength, we, of course, recognize it."

"Yes, we acknowledge no one but Sect Master Ning!"

The two Supreme Elders hurriedly acknowledged Ning Fan’s position as Sect Master, not daring to have the slightest doubt.

After all, Ning Fan’s strength was evident; even if they had the intention to resist, they lacked the ability to do so.

With the submission of the two Supreme Elders, the storm also came to an end.

The complete submission of the Ghost Yin Sect, Fenyue Sect, Blood Lion Sect, and the Spike Mountain Sect to Ning Fan marked the conclusion of this event.

With the four sects submitting under Ning Fan’s command, Ning Fan’s forces grew even stronger, and so did Vice Sect Master Zhuang Peng’s position.

Vice Sect Master Zhuang Peng, having followed Ning Fan the longest time, was almost seen as an elder among the people.

For a while, all four Sect Masters were trying to curry favor with Zhuang Peng, making even him feel uncomfortable.

Ning Fan, however, didn’t mind but was focused on refining and absorbing the spiritual power of the Spectral Skeleton.

As the spiritual power continued to be refined, his spiritual power also grew incredibly, almost surpassing the Pseudo-Dan Realm.

"Phew... My spiritual power is now basically beyond the Pseudo-Dan Realm; I need not fear even if Zhai Yonghui comes again."

At this moment, Zhuang Peng, representing the other Sect Masters, approached him.

"Sect Master, the Sect Masters of the four sects have brought the auction house’s tokens."

He presented a token with both hands and respectfully handed it to Ning Fan.

Ning Fan glanced at the token and said solemnly, "Is everything arranged?"

"Yes, we are ready to leave for the auction house at any time."

"Good, then we shall leave tomorrow."

Ning Fan decided not to delay any longer as he had many tasks to complete.

Whether finding his parents or discovering how to restore Xu Yourong’s memory, his priorities were clear.

As for the situation of consolidating power here, Ning Fan decided to leave it to Zhuang Peng and Huang Gu, with the other four Sect Masters assisting them.

Hearing this, Zhuang Peng hurriedly said, "Sect Master, I can go with you. This journey is surely very dangerous, and you still need assistance."

He was now absolutely loyal to Ning Fan and naturally did not want any harm to come his way.
