“Alright, that’s enough.”
Elder Qian suddenly said this, which caused Tie Yong and Tu Ying to stop fighting.
It was clear that this would keep going for a while, but they were expected to be at the Martial Might Sect by the end of the day. So it wasn’t as if they could let this fight keep going.
Elder Qian was surprised to find that there was someone who was able to keep up with his disciple.
But in his mind, he also felt that this fight was worth it since he had obtained some valuable information.
It was clear that this Tie Yong was their strongest disciple, which was why they had sent him out.
Everything that had happened before was nothing more than a distraction from Tie Yong. It was why even the disciple of the sect master had treated Tie Yong like that earlier.
He was their secret weapon that they had sent out.
But if he was only a match for Tu Ying…then they shouldn’t be able to do anything to their other disciples.
Tu Ying was barely in the top ten in their Martial Might Sect, there were plenty of other disciples that they could rely on.
However, before that…Elder Qian had to at least put on a show.
So he turned to Lin Fan and cupped his hands to say, “Sect Master Lin, it seems that your sect really is filled with talents. This Qian really is humbled by this spar.”
Lin Fan could tell that this old fox was lying right through his teeth, but he didn’t expose him as he cupped his hands to say, “No, no, it is the Martial Might Sect that is filled with talents. We are just happy that we were able to at least fight back with our meager talents.”
The two of them seemed like they were being humble, but…
Elder Qian didn’t keep up this act for long as he said, “Then shall we head to the Martial Might Sect now? The sect master is surely waiting for us to arrive.”
Lin Fan just gave a simple nod before saying, “Please lead the way.”
Elder Qian nodded before leading them out of the town.
With the way that he was leading them, it didn’t seem like he was taking them anywhere special. With the way that he was leading them, it was almost as if he was just taking them to the outskirts of the town.
But it didn’t take long for them to realize why he did this.
There was a large gust of wind that came down from the sky before something appeared from above the clouds.
The clouds below this thing parted before it revealed itself.
It was a spiritual boat.
This was a powerful flying artifact that was used by large sects for transport.
It was something that all powerful sects should have.
But the Love Sect didn’t have such a thing.
The Love Sect did have a spiritual boat back when it was a powerful sect, but that was the past. When they had been scattered by their enemies, they hadn’t been able to escape with everything.
So the spiritual boat that they had before was most likely taken by the enemies.
Then when those enemies were destroyed, their wealth had been taken by the Mu Empire.
Right now, the spiritual boat that had previously belonged to the Love Sect was most likely in the hands of the Mu Empire. Though it was very unlikely that it would ever be returned to the Love Sect.
After all, this was an expensive artifact, it was not something that would be given easily.
Even if Mu Bao Bao wanted to return it to the Love Sect, there would be a lot of opposition from her ministers. Even if she acted arbitrarily sometimes, it wasn’t as if she could do whatever she wanted.
The ministers and generals would argue that this was for the good of the Mu Empire since the spiritual boat would greatly help their army, so they couldn’t just give it back.
So it would be unlikely that they would ever return the spiritual boat.
As for the Hidden Dragon Sect, they were a sealed sect, so it wasn’t as if they ever needed this.
Once the spiritual boat landed, Elder Qian looked back at Lin Fan’s group with a smile and said, “Sect Master Lin, after you.”
The look on his face made it very clear that he was showing off the spiritual boat of the Martial Might Sect. It was almost as if he was saying, “We have one, what about you?”
But Lin Fan didn’t react at all to this as he just gave a simple nod and headed up to the spiritual boat.
The elders and generals all acted the same way as Lin Fan, but it was impossible for the disciples to act the same way.
Not just the disciples from the Love Sect, even the young talents from the Mu Empire couldn’t help looking around with an excited look. After all, this was their first time riding on a spiritual boat like this.
This was most likely their first time even flying through the sky like this.
So they were very excited about this.
When Elder Qian and the disciples of the Martial Might Sect saw this, they looked at the Love Sect group like they were a bunch of country bumpkins.
The elders and generals looked like they wanted to say something about this, but Lin Fan just raised his hand to stop them.
He knew that it was already too late to stop them and doing anything now would have the opposite effect.
Instead, it was better to let them enjoy this and let them relax through this. It was better than just having them be too stressed out when the tournament began.
Since there was the spiritual boat taking them to the Martial Might Sect, they were able to arrive in the afternoon.
As soon as they arrived, they found that there was a large group there to welcome them.
Standing at the head of this group was this fierce looking middle aged man who everyone else clearly respected as they cleared the way for him. He was the one that walked up to Lin Fan’s group when they came off the ship.
With one hand raised to wave at them, this fierce middle aged man said, “Sect Master Lin, it really is an honour for our Martial Might Sect to have your presence here.”
Lin Fan was surprised by how respectful this person was, even though he didn’t show it on his face.
After looking at this person for a bit, he realized who this person most likely was.
“Sect Master Duan, you’re too kind. It should be our Love Sect’s honour to be able to visit your honourable Martial Might Sect.” Lin Fan said with a respectful look on his face.
The one that he was talking to was Duan He, the sect master of the Martial Might Sect and the one that had sent that invitation.
He had heard a bit about this person, but he never thought that he would be like this.
Though he looked fierce, he also looked like an uncle that would be in the neighbourhood..
Duan He just said with a smile, “Sect Master Lin, you’re the one being too kind.”
After that, he suddenly revealed a serious look before saying, “Sect Master Lin, I must apologize to you on behalf of our Martial Might Sect.”
Lin Fan was surprised to hear this before quickly saying, “Sect Master Duan, what are you saying? There’s no reason for you to apologize.”
Duan He shook his head and said, “No, I must apologize on behalf of our Martial Might Sect. Even though the Love Sect and the Martial Might Sect have been friends for many generations, we weren’t able to come to your aide when you were attacked by all those enemies. I deeply apologize for this on behalf of all of us at the Martial Might Sect.”
Lin Fan was even more surprised to hear this, even if he didn’t show it on his face.
He took a moment to gather himself before saying, “No, Sect Master Duan, this isn’t your fault. Even if your Martial Might Sect wanted to help, I’m sure that it would have been difficult since you were in the Wu Empire and not the Mu Empire. None of us blame you for this matter.”
Duan He gave a nod before saying, “Sect Master Lin, it is truly kind of you to say this.”
Duan He suddenly came forward after saying this and grabbed Lin Fan by the shoulder before saying, “I promise that our two sects will still remain as close friends from here on out. I hope that Sect Master Lin will not mind this.”
Lin Fan was still surprised to hear this, but he shook his head and said, “How could I mind this? I would be honoured to be friends with Sect Master Duan.”
“Then what is this sect master, sect master address? Just call me brother from now on.” Duan He said while patting Lin Fan on the shoulder.
Lin Fan just calmly gave a nod and said, “Then Brother Duan, I hope that you will take care of me in the future.”
Duan He laughed as he said, “Brother Lin, I think that it should be me asking you to take care of us in the future.”
Though this scene seemed very harmonious, Lin Fan wasn’t fooled at all.
It seemed that the Martial Might Sect really was filled with these wily old foxes.
