The next day.
Before dawn, someone came to the outside of Ice and Fire City to see Lu An. The person who came was a monk from the Karmic Fire Sect.
Lu An had been resting and recovering his strength last night. He had almost recovered by now. Even though Lu An and Liu Yi were disgusted with the Karmic Fire Sect, the messenger still wanted to meet them.
However, they would never forget that the Karmic Fire Sect had tried to kill Lu An time and time again.
Soon, the monk entered the City Lord Mansion and met Lu An in the office. Lu An's attitude was very cold and his voice was very low as he asked, "What's the matter?"
The monk did not dare to offend Lu An and said respectfully, "Alliance Leader Lu, on behalf of the Karmic Fire Sect, I invite all the forces for this mission to gather in the sect. Alliance Leader Lu, please come in person."
Go to the Karmic Fire Sect?
Lu An and Liu Yi were not surprised by the other party's request. This was something they had discussed last night and they had already come to a conclusion.
Therefore, Lu An did not need to think at all and said directly, "I'm not going."
Hearing such a straightforward refusal, the monk's body shook and he looked at Lu An in shock.
"Alliance Master Lu …" The monk obviously didn't expect to encounter such a situation and panicked. After all, this was his mission. He hurriedly said, "This matter is of great importance. For this meeting, Alliance Master Lu's personal presence is very important. Please reconsider!"
"I said, I'm not going!" Lu An's gaze was icy cold as he said, "Besides that, pass my words to your elders. Don't think that you're so smart, and don't boast that you're punishing evil, yet the things you do are laughable."
"…"
Being insulted in front of his sect, the monk's face turned red and white. However, he knew that his mission was not to quarrel with the other party. At most, he would complain after the invitation. However, just as he was about to say something, Lu An spoke again.
"Men," Lu An said coldly, "send the guest out."
Immediately, two level-eight Heavenly Masters walked into the room and said sternly to the monk, "Please!"
The monk's face was clearly pale and ugly, but there was nothing he could do. He could only turn and leave.
After the Karmic Fire Sect monk left, Liu Yi took a light breath and said, "They will send someone over in a while. Furthermore, it might be a core Elder coming personally to invite us."
Lu An nodded. Liu Yi had mentioned this last night. He said, "Then I'll go?"
"Yes." Liu Yi nodded and said, "The Karmic Fire Sect won't dare to attack you in their own sect, so we can use 'Red Night' to restrain their energy. However, our focus should still be on denouncing the Karmic Fire Sect. Since the Karmic Fire Sect wants to kill you, we must also take this opportunity to isolate the Karmic Fire Sect in the sect. This way, it will be easier for us to act in the future. "
"Alright," Lu An said.
Just as Liu Yi had expected, before a quarter of an hour had passed, someone came to report, "Alliance Master, Lu Kong requests an audience!"
"Let him in," Lu An said.
"Yes!"
After that person left, Lu Kong quickly appeared outside the tall building and entered the office. Lu Kong and Lu An looked at each other. Both of them looked solemn, and there was no smile on their faces.
"Alliance Master Lu," Lu Kong raised his hand to salute and said, "Please come with me to the Karmic Fire Sect."
"What's the matter?" Lu An said directly, "Shouldn't the Karmic Fire Sect go to the Sect Master? Why do you come to me every day?"
"…" Lu Kong's face darkened. He took a deep breath and said, "After this, the Karmic Fire Sect won't disturb you anymore."
Hearing Lu Kong's words, Lu An kept silent for a while before he finally stood up and said coldly, "Let's go."
Du Kong didn't say anything when he saw this and left with Lu An.

Karmic Fire Sect, Eight Ancient Continent.
Among the Buddhas, in a huge palace, there were many people sitting on both sides. Naturally, they were the five sects that fought last night. Including the Karmic Fire Sect, who was sitting on the main seat, the people from the six sects were all present.
The core elders of each sect who took action last night had all arrived. After experiencing the battle, their faces were obviously very ugly. They were completely tense and didn't relax at all. It was obvious that the battle last night had given them immense pressure, and their hearts had almost been crushed.
Last night, they were really close to being completely annihilated in the ocean. Even if they sacrificed their fellow sect members to delay the enemy, less than ten percent of them would be able to return in the end.
As the core elders and the top experts among the Level Eight Heavenly Masters, they hadn't encountered such a crisis for a long time.
This was no small matter. After they returned to the sect, they immediately reported it to the Sect Master. The Sect Master was also shocked when he heard it. He didn't expect there to be such a force in the world. Although they all had the strength to deal with these enemies, the problem was that no one dared to confirm whether there was a Level Nine expert among the enemies.
If there was, wouldn't they also fall into the trap?
The number of Level Nine Heavenly Masters was too small. They were many times more precious than Level Eight Heavenly Masters. Naturally, they couldn't take this risk. Therefore, the people of the six sects all gathered together to discuss this matter before dawn.
Just now, the monk informed Lu An that he refused to go, which shocked the people of the six sects. Especially after Du Xu and Du Kong heard the monk report Lu An's words alone, their faces were extremely ugly. However, today's matter really couldn't be done without Lu An, so Du Kong went to invite him again.
Finally, everyone in the hall was shocked and turned to look outside. Two figures quickly appeared at the entrance of the hall and strode in.
It was Du Kong and Lu An!
At least four people from each sect came. Only the Ice Fire Union sent only Lu An, but no one cared. After all, as long as Lu An came, it was enough.
Seeing Lu An's arrival, the core elders of the five sects all stood up and cupped their hands to greet him. "Alliance Master Lu!"
"Alliance Master Lu!"
These people's voices were obviously filled with respect and gratitude. If it wasn't for Lu An's help last night, they might not even be alive now.
Especially Li Yin of the Flower Moon Sect. She used to look down on Lu An, but now she became the most sincere one.
Lu An cupped his hands and returned the greeting of the people of the five sects. However, he didn't even look at the people of the Karma Fire Sect. He walked directly to the empty seat at the side and sat down without asking for Du Xu and Du Kong's permission.
"Why did the Karma Fire Sect ask me to come here?" Lu An asked directly after he sat down.
Lu An's tone was very cold and stiff, which made the people of the five sects tremble. They all knew that the Karma Fire Sect had always wanted to kill Lu An in the operation. It wasn't surprising that Lu An had such an attitude. Moreover, to be honest, the people of the five sects were all on Lu An's side this time.
It was the Karma Fire Sect who asked the Ice Fire Union to help punish the evil. In the end, they wanted to kill Lu An. In the end, they were saved by Lu An. Because of this, the status of the Karma Fire Sect in their hearts had greatly decreased.
Du Xu frowned when he saw this. He didn't come in person last night because he heard what Du Xu said. No matter how accurate or serious Du Xu's words were, he couldn't experience it personally. Therefore, when he saw Lu An's attitude and thought of the words that Lu An asked the messenger to send back, he was immediately furious!
"Lu An!" Du Xu slammed the table and shouted, "Don't be rude!"
'Bang!' A loud sound startled everyone present. Both sides were ready to fight. Everyone quickly looked at Lu An, only to find that Lu An's eyes were full of indifference and contempt. There was no fear at all.
"What?" Lu An said coldly, "You dare to kill me?"
"You!" Du Xu's face turned even uglier. As the head of the core elders, he was second only to the three Sect Leaders in the Karma Fire Sect. When had he ever been treated like this?
Immediately, a terrifying pressure erupted from his body and swept toward Lu An. He didn't dare to kill Lu An, nor could he do it directly. However, he could give Lu An a huge pressure and embarrass Lu An in front of everyone!
However, right when this pressure was about to arrive around Lu An, another force suddenly appeared, and it directly collided with this force and forcefully destroyed it!
Bang!
A gust of wind swept through the hall, almost blowing it away!
This sudden change caused the hearts of everyone in the hall to tremble, and they all released their power to resist this impact. Du Xu looked at the person who attacked in shock. Even the other four Sects were the same.
Lu An also turned to look at the person who attacked. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
The person who blocked the force was Li Yin from the Flower Moon Sect!
Even though Lu An had saved his life, Li Yin was the only one among the six sects who had made a move. This caused Lu An to look at Li Yin in a different light.
Maybe … the Flower Moon Sect wasn't as bad as he thought.
