With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods
Chapter 294 Sect Reopening

The sect master quickly came forward and asked, "Ancestor, what do you mean we're creating a new sect?"

All of the elders quickly followed behind the sect master, but they didn't say anything as they waited for Lin Fan's answer.

After all, this was something that was very important to them.

Lin Fan didn't like being crowded like this, but he understood why they would act this way.

The Hidden Dragon Sect had been something that had existed for hundreds of years and now he was telling them to disband, so naturally they would replace it hard to accept. Even if they had been forced into this Hidden Dragon Sect by the ancestor with the Soul Seal, this was a place that they had been in for centuries.

It would be hard for them not to form some kind of attachment to this place.

Lin Fan had already expected this, so he said, "We'll be discarding the name Hidden Dragon Sect and going forward with a new name. As for everything else, it will remain the same."

Everyone once again revealed shocked looks when they heard this.

Discard the name Hidden Dragon Sect?

Wasn't that the same as disbanding the sect?

This wasn't something that they could allow to happen since that name was what protected them.

So the sect master quickly said, "Ancestor, we're registered in the cultivation alliance as the Hidden Dragon Sect. If we were to discard that name and continue on under a new name, that will open us up for attack from other sects."

Lin Fan's expression didn't change, but there was a flash of confusion that appeared in his eyes.

He quickly searched the memories of the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor and found the memories of the cultivation alliance.

The cultivation alliance was the alliance of sects led by the Five Great Sects. They were in charge of managing all of the sects and making sure that there was no meaningless struggle between the sects.

Of course, it was impossible for these sects to have complete peace since human nature was ever changing. But they did their best to mitigate the useless struggle between sects for the betterment of all sects.

But as he thought this, he couldn't help thinking of a strange thing.

Why did the Love Sect get destroyed for no reason if there was a cultivation alliance like this in place?

Shouldn't the cultivation alliance have stopped them from destroying the Love Sect.

After all, he had also seen the Love Sect on the list of sects registered with the cultivation alliance in the memories of the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor.

So this didn't make sense.

But still, it wasn't the time to think about this.

So instead, he said, "We'll still be registered under the Hidden Dragon Sect, but we'll be attaching ourselves to a larger sect."

The sect master couldn't help repeating in a surprised voice, "A larger sect? Which sect?"

Lin Fan just casually said, "The Love Sect."

As soon as they heard this, the sect master and the elders all quickly knitted their brows.

Perhaps if it was before, they wouldn't have known what this Love Sect was. However, in recent days, they had been hearing about the Love Sect from the cultivation alliance's network.

Even if they had closed the Hidden Dragon Sect, they couldn't hide themselves from the cultivation alliance or they wouldn't be able to draw on their support if something bad happened.

After all, their Hidden Dragon Sect was only considered a low grade sect.

There were plenty of powerful sects that could destroy them if they weren't careful.

After a moment of pause, the sect master said, "Ancestor, I've heard that the Love Sect was destroyed. How can we attach ourselves to the Love Sect if they no longer exist?"

Lin Fan just said in a calm voice, "They might have been scattered, but who told you that the Love Sect was destroyed? If we take this chance to attach ourselves to them while they are still regrouping, wouldn't we be able to benefit when they rise up again?"

The sect master and all the elders revealed surprised looks, but they couldn't help nodding in agreement.

But there was still a problem after all…

Was the Love Sect regrouping?

Even if they were regrouping, how would the ancestor know that?

It wasn't as if the ancestor had any contact with the outside, right?

Or could it be that the ancestor had been making contact with the outside without telling them?

That was the more terrifying thought since if the ancestor was making contact with the outside, there was the chance that he might abandon them.

He could kill them all with a single thought, so if he was abandoning them, that would mean their end…

So the sect master and the elders were all about to say something as if they wanted prove their usefulness still, but Lin Fan spoke first, "The owner of this body is connected to the remnants of the Love Sect, so we can make contact with them through this persona."

"Eh?" The sect master and all of the elders revealed shocked looks when they heard this.

They didn't know much about Lin Fan since they had rushed him into the trial, so they never expected him to be connected to the Love Sect.

As expected of the ancestor, it seemed that he had already planned for everything.

The Love Sect, this was a sect that was considered a mid grade sect since it had a Soul Formation Realm Cultivators.

This was a sect that was countless times bigger than the Hidden Dragon Sect, in terms of both resources and foundation, so even if they had been scattered by their enemies, it was worth it to try attaching themselves to them.

If it failed, then they would be able to get away with some of the resources of the Love Sect.

If they succeeded, they would be able to attach themselves to the Love Sect in the future.

There didn't seem to be a downside to this plan.

So the sect master and the elders couldn't help revealing excited looks.

They had been anxious when they didn't know what the ancestor had been planning, but now they realized why he didn't tell them anything yesterday.

He was most likely sorting out the memories of the body that he had taken over and had still been making his plan.

Now that he had shared his plan, they were feeling confident.

They would do anything that he wanted, even if he wanted them to disband the Hidden Dragon Sect.

So this group confidently went to the main square.

In this main square, the thousands of Hidden Dragon Sect members were waiting. Every single person in the sect had been called and they were all worried that it was something bad.

Everyone knew that the ancestor was back, but that wasn't good news for them.

They all remembered what had happened when they had joined the Hidden Dragon Sect, this was something that they could never get over because their souls were still in the hands of the ancestor.

But when the announcement was made, everyone was shocked.

"We're opening the sect again?"

"You mean we get to go out again?"

"We're going to join another sect?"

There were all these different whispers that filled the crowd when they heard the announcement.

That was right, the sect master just announced that they would be opening the sect and they would once again go out to the world. They would go and become the branch sect of another larger sect.

But even though they were shocked, they didn't have a trace of doubt.

They might have been doubtful if it was just the sect master alone, but there was also the ancestor there.

They immediately recognized the ancestor because they knew this person from when he had appeared in the Hidden Dragon Sect as the last holder of the Mark of the Hidden Dragon. They had all recognized him since they thought that he would be the last one before they were free.

But now it seemed like they would be destined to keep working under him until they died.

Now it seemed like he was a monster that lived off stealing the bodies of others to survive.

The only bright side of this was that they would be falling under a bigger sect.

A bigger sect meant more resources for everyone and more safety for them, so this was always welcome.

That was until they heard which sect it was.

"Love Sect? Does anyone know what sect that is?"

"Isn't that the sect that was destroyed…?"

As soon as this one person said this, everyone suddenly started revealing grim looks.

If it was a sect that was destroyed, then how could they be safe?

This would mean more enemies for them…

But the sect master announced, "We have found the remnants of the Love Sect, so we're joining with them to help rebuild the Love Sect."

He didn't say anything beyond this as he left this to the people smart enough to understand to figure it out for the others.

It didn't take long before those people understood the meaning behind this.

They were a destroyed sect, but those remnants would still have the inheritance of the sect itself.

As long as they worked with them, they would get a part of that inheritance.

But the most important thing was that…their ancestor could take over bodies…

It wouldn't be hard for him to…

So with this, everyone was filled with confidence towards this idea.
