Capítulo 1492: Chapter 1496: So That’s How It Is
Lin Fei continued on his path, encountering disciple after disciple along the way. Though he spoke to them, they paid him no mind, making Lin Fei realize that things were far from simple. Hence, he headed directly to Sect Leader Liu Muqing.
He met many disciples on the road, but the situation remained essentially the same, so Lin Fei stopped asking around. Additionally, he had no idea where Qingfeng was.
Lin Fei finally arrived at Liu Muqing’s place. He pushed open the door, and indeed, Liu Muqing was there.
Liu Muqing was annoyed by the sudden interruption, his brows furrowed. But when he looked up and saw Lin Fei, he immediately smiled, “Junior brother? Why are you here? Come, sit down.”
Lin Fei’s face was stern, “Sect Leader Brother, I want to know what’s going on with the disciples outside.”
Upon hearing Lin Fei’s words, Liu Muqing knew he couldn’t keep things concealed any longer, so he sighed, “Junior brother, do you know what day it is three months from now?”
With Liu Muqing’s reminder, Lin Fei recalled the Martial Arts Tournament and asked, “Does this have something to do with the Martial Arts Tournament?”
Liu Muqing laughed and eventually nodded, “Of course, you know the Martial Arts Tournament concerns the honor of the entire sect, right? It’s a grand event that only occurs once every hundred years, so during this period, I’ve been stricter with the disciples, which has led to this situation.”
After hearing Liu Muqing’s explanation, Lin Fei’s expression brightened. After all, with gains come losses. If they want the sect to earn glory, sacrifices must be made; it’s a certainty.
“By the way, Brother, where’s Qingfeng? Where is she? Why haven’t I seen her? I have some matters to discuss with her.” Lin Fei wondered, could this be related to Qingfeng’s disappearance?
Liu Muqing shook his head, “I truly don’t know where Qingfeng is. She already left the Beidou Sect and said she was going to find someone, so I let her leave. It might be challenging for you to find her now.”
With no alternative, given the situation, Lin Fei could only nod helplessly.
“By the way, Junior brother, what are you here at the Beidou Sect for? I was going to have the disciples call you to participate in the Martial Arts Tournament in three months, but you came yourself; at least you saved on the phone bill.”
Liu Muqing chuckled. Naturally, as the Beidou Sect Leader, he wouldn’t be stingy about the phone bills; he was merely joking with Lin Fei, demonstrating that Liu Muqing and Lin Fei had a good relationship, and Liu Muqing seemed to hold Lin Fei in high regard.
Lin Fei explained the reason for his visit, “Brother, I want to borrow the assessment system at Beidou Palace. I have three brothers, and I wish for them to undergo trials and become Ancient Martial Artists, so at least we brothers won’t endure the pain of separation.”
Liu Muqing heard Lin Fei’s request and nodded, “Sure, use it as you like. Beidou Sect is currently somewhat closed off, so we’re not recruiting disciples. You can freely use the assessment tools; go ahead.”
“Thank you, Brother.” Lin Fei cupped his hands in appreciation to Liu Muqing.
“We’re brothers; there’s no need for thanks. Who knows, maybe you’ll become Sect Leader one day, and the Beidou Sect will be under your management. You could go wherever you want.”
Liu Muqing laughed, seemingly joking, but simultaneously serious.
Lin Fei shook his head; he wasn’t interested in being a Sect Leader. He preferred more leisurely days, as those other considerations hadn’t crossed his mind. Besides, Liu Muqing already had the ability to ascend to the Upper Realm and even returned from it, so as the Sect Leader, he’s likely to remain for a long while, at least a hundred years without change.
A century, a long time, Lin Fei couldn’t predict what might happen, so he stopped pondering, bade farewell to Liu Muqing, and headed toward Qingfeng Building.
Liu Muqing watched Lin Fei’s departing figure, tightly clenched his fist, furrowed his brows, and finally sighed, as the door closed automatically.
Meanwhile, Lin Fei arrived at Qingfeng Building, found his brothers who were all relieved that nothing had happened to Lin Fei. Lin Fei led them to where Dou Sect Master had trained him, which was at Beidou Palace.
The scenes of past training were vivid to Lin Fei’s memory, where he walked back and forth in the mud pit, and threw iron balls into it, requiring Lin Fei to retrieve all the iron balls from within.
Moreover, he was placed in a silent space, allowing him to train independently.
All these they perfected under Lin Fei’s efforts, although the final task got stuck. Nevertheless, Lin Fei relied on his talent to earn Beidou Master’s recognition, ultimately becoming his disciple.
Lin Fei led his brothers to the assessment site at Beidou Palace, letting them undergo trials, with each one eagerly diving into the mud pit.
They all understood the current situation; if they couldn’t pass the trial, they might never have the opportunity to support their leader’s strength. Therefore, they each resolved to ensure passing the trial.
What surprised Lin Fei was that each of them quickly passed the trial, astonishing Lin Fei so much, his jaw almost dropped.
“What… did you take? How did you become so fierce?” Lin Fei didn’t expect that in just two or three years, their progress would be remarkably swift.
After the brothers explained, Lin Fei realized they’d ardently trained themselves after Lin Fei left. That’s how they reached such a realm, meaning they now exceeded Lin Fei from two or three years ago; hence, they handled the iron ball trial swiftly.
Lin Fei brought them to the next level, the deep tranquility trial, which surprised him even more as they passed it with equal speed, taking only a few days.
“Boss, isn’t this thing a bit like the device Brick Keiron invented that uses brainwaves? We trained under this condition long ago to prevent enemies from using such tactics on us.”
Upon Radar’s explanation, Lin Fei understood that Brick Keiron’s device could plunge a person into absolute silence, ideal for severe interrogation, thus leading them three to train under similar conditions, now proving advantageous.
Lin Fei couldn’t help but admire them, finally leading them to the grand hall, where they couldn’t make any movement or let the candle in front extinguish.
This time, Lin Fei didn’t set a time limit for them, allowing them freedom as Lin Fei felt confident they would accomplish it.
