Chapter 139 - Elder Song
Flying back to the Flying Sword Sect at the fastest speed possible, Xuan Hao carried both his disciples as he went over the message that the Inner Elder Song had send him earlier.
In the message, he had described that the Sect Master's friend and the Vice Sect Master had started fighting on top of the Vice Sect Master Mountain Peak. The fight had apparently caused most of the disciples of the Flying Sword Sect to run around in a panic as they had no idea what was happening and could not concentrate on cultivating or anything else that required their focus with a giant fight happening close by.
From the message, Xuan Hao also managed to understand that it was the Vice Sect Master that had started it and the Sect Master's friend only defend all this while. Not attacking the Vice Sect Master Zu Fei at any point.
"Hah… I wonder how much damage Zu Fei has caused… Hopefully she only destroyed her own pavilion like Elder Song said…" Thinking about the damage that a Nascent Soul Realm Expert could cause, Xuan Hao felt worried that the Zu Fei would end up damaging the few dwellings and other infrastructure of the sect located besides the Vice Sect Master's pavilion.
The cost of repairing in the future would definitely not be cheap for the sect…
…
By the time Xuan Hao arrived in the vicinity of the Flying Sword Sect, he could see giant swords constantly clashing against an enormous lotus flower at the centre area of the Flying Sword Sect.
At this point, most of the people in the Flying Sword Sect had already evacuated the area where Zu Fei was fighting and were watching the show from the side. The Flying Sword City had also gotten a bit more popular than usual as many wandering cultivators from nearby had come to watch the fight between the two Nascent Soul Realm Experts.
The reason that they had gathered in the Flying Sword City located at the entrance of the sect instead of watching the fight from the other sides of the sect, was due to the fact that the other areas leading into the Flying Sword Sect were obscured by a dense mist year-round.
For them, it was quite rare to be able to watch a Nascent Soul Realm fight without having to worry about dying in the process was a huge opportunity. Maybe they would even be able to comprehend something and have a breakthrough from watching the fight!
So, the amount of people gathering in front of the Flying Sword Sect's entrance to watch the fight as closely as possible kept increasing, with some even sneaking onto the roofs of nearby buildings to get a better view of the fight happening in the centre area of the Flying Sword Sect.
Landing in an area a little away from the Flying Sword Sect's entrance without being seen by the crowd that had formed all around the area of the Flying Sword Sect's entrance to try and watch the fight happening in the distance.
"You two can wait over there together with the rest of the disciples as I go deal with the Vice Sect Master…" Xuan Hao motioned towards a group of Flying Sword Sect Disciples that had gathered at a mountain peak close to the entrance to watch the fight before quickly making his way inside the Flying Sword Sect and towards the Vice Sect Master's Mountain Peak.
Qing Yi and Chu Yang felt a bit confused upon suddenly finding themselves at the entrance of the Flying Sword Sect, but quickly managed to recover and make their way over to the mountain peak where a large group of disciples had gathered.
After asking around from the other disciples of the Flying Sword Sect about what happened, Qing Yi and Chu Yang quickly found out what happened and that the people fighting at the centre region of the Flying Sword Sect was none other than the Vice Sect master Zu Fei and the Sect Master's guest.
…
At the bottom of the Vice Sect Master's Mountain Peak, Xuan Hao arrived in front of the elder standing there anxiously waiting.
Looking at the elder well into his late eighties with a splendid beard standing there waiting for him to arrive, Xuan Hao smiled a bit.
This elderly man was the role model of many elders inside the Flying Sword Sect and there were even many of the disciples admiring to become someone like him in the future, more so than any of the other Core Elders or even the Sect Master!
The reason for this was simple as the Elder known as Elder Song was in charge of the Outer and Inner disciples without a master being taught the different cultivation mantras and sword techniques in the sect, he helped both Inner and Outer disciples of the sect improve.
Other than just helping the Outer and Inner disciples improve their cultivation, he also helped organize several public events where both the Inner and Outer disciple could get to know each other and improve.
One of the most popular events that he helped organize was the newcomer tournament that Qing Yi had gone through in the past. Tournaments like the newcomer tournament where the new disciples of the sect would get a chance to show off and gain some fighting experience.
At the same time, they could get more familiar with the other new disciples of the sect from fighting against each other.
The older disciples of the sect often came to watch the newcomer tournament to see the new faces that would be entering the sect and also managed to get more familiar with each other and even make a few friends along the way.
All in all, the newcomer tournament was just one of the many successful events that Elder Song had managed to organize over the years.
Many in the sect also believed that if Elder Song reached the Nascent Soul Realm in the future, he would take over the role of Vice Sect Master instead of Zu Fei.
