197 First Senior Martial Brother (1/2)

As luck would have it, the two guarding the gate today were precisely the ones that had been guarding the gate the day when Mei Chao Bing and the others arrived. ”They've been here. They have left for more than a week already though. As far as I know, they were supposed to go to the Jian Chu Sect's camp next. They are probably still there.”

Zhi Guan put his tablet away and nodded. ”Thank you for telling me.” He turned away and wanted to leave but the disciple called out after him.

”Ah, don't you want to see the Elder or something?” That was what one would normally do, right?

Zhi Guan turned back and then looked at the camp, finally shaking his head. ”I'm in a bit of a hurry. Please extend my greetings to your Elder and tell them that I don't mean to slight them but there are pressing matters at hand so I can't take any risks and need to leave immediately.”

”Oh.” The disciple finally nodded and didn't try to get him to stay any longer.

Zhi Guan turned around once again, stepped onto his sword, and then continued to fly towards the Jian Chu Sect.

It really was true that Zhi Guan was the type of person that only liked to focus on one thing if possible. Meeting Elders or whatnot, he did not care about that. Right now, it was only important to see his little junior. It was probably good enough already that he paid enough attention to his surroundings to make sure that he wouldn't be attacked secretly. After all, he had already saved Kui Min so most likely, whatever use the demonic cultivators had had for him before was already a thing of the past. Now, he could be a target for their attacks as easily as everybody else. He would need to show a bit of vigilance.

Zhi Guan wasn't necessarily worried about that though. In any case, he wasn't weak. He would be able to win against most of the disciples from the other side unless it was somebody of an even higher level. But how likely was it that this kind of person would be sent to the edge of the border region instead of staying at the demonic practitioners' headquarter? He didn't think it was very likely.

Thus, there were no other operations and things just continued on their side as they had done before and Zhi Guan was able to rush to the Jian Chu Sect unhindered. He finally arrived there on the very same day.

Once again, he stopped in front of the gate, took out his jade tablet, and presented it to the two disciples while introducing himself. ”Are there other disciples of our sect here?”

The two disciples exchanged a glance and then nodded. ”There are. Should we bring you over?”
