230: C230 Invitation from the Nine Palace Empire

C230 Invitation from the Nine Palace Empire

This man …" Just as the man's voice rang out, another figure appeared in the inn's hall. This person had a short beard, a chignon, and wore a black robe. He looked like a middle-aged man, and was Great Sect Master of Origin Sect, a leading man of Origin Sect, a Heavenly Sage Stage expert who was not one bit weaker than Zhuo Bufan — Lin Wuhui.

Towards Lin Wuhui's arrival, the practitioners of Origin Sect were fine. After all, the person who appeared was their sect master, so they all immediately bowed to Lin Wuhui. Even the high and mighty Second Patriarch of Origin Sect, Hsu Wei, who was arrogant like him, also consciously bowed to Lin Wuhui.

As for the three people of Duobao Sect, only Zhuo Bufan was completely at ease with Lin Wuhui's appearance, as if he had already known this since a long time ago. Qin Wuyan and Nie Zhen, who were left, were extremely surprised with Lin Wuhui's arrival.

Needless to say, the difference between Qin Wuyan and Lin Wuhui was like heaven and earth.

As for Nie Zhen, although his soul power far surpassed experts of the same level, Lin Wuhui's cultivation level was too high. Without Nie Zhen's Spiritual Awareness noticing, Lin Wuhui had appeared here. Even he was shocked.

"Sect Master Lin, how have you been?" Zhuo Bufan cupped his hands towards Lin Wuhui and said with a faint smile.

"Heh heh... Sect Master Zhuo, I didn't expect you to meet me at such an occasion … I thought we'd meet on the day of the tournament. " Wu Tie replied with an expressionless face.

Seeing Lin Wuhui's arrival, Hsu Wei hurriedly took two steps forward and said, "Great Sect Master, I'm sure that the matter regarding Martial Nephew Yu Baitian is related to the Duobao Sect, I …"

However, at this time, Lin Wuhui actually waved his hand, stopping Hsu Wei's words, and said lightly to Hsu Wei: "I have already heard of this matter, but it is all your deductions, Second Sect Master, we do not have any substantial evidence. Second Sect Master, do not be rash, and instead call us fellow cultivators of Duobao Sect to see this joke, so as to prevent others from thinking that my Origin Sect is too small, and that I cannot tolerate anyone.

Although Lin Wuhui's words sounded very fair and impartial, his words and tone made people feel that he was filled with hostility towards Duobao Sect, especially the last sentence, "After the exchange competition ends, it will be a waste of time". His meaning was that Duobao Sect would obviously lose to Origin Sect in this exchange competition, and at that time, Duobao Sect would use this matter as a reason to falsely accuse Origin Sect of oppressing them.

The Three Sects exchange competition had not even officially started, and this Lin Wuhui was hinting from his words that Duobao Sect would suffer a crushing defeat this time, he had gone too far!

However, Lin Wuhui still forced himself to stand as if he was trying to justify his actions in Duobao Sect, making people unable to even show their temper.

If Zhuo Bufan's personality was that kind of bamboo that was soft on the outside but tough on the inside, then Lin Wuhui's style was a soft knife that could kill.

However, even though Lin Wuhui's words were unpleasant to hear, his attitude still proved that the people from Origin Sect were destined to come to the Tianyuan Inn to draw water from a basket, because they wouldn't be able to get anything out of it.

"Second Sect Master, bring your people back quickly. Don't throw my Origin Sect's bearing away." Lin Wuhui's words set the tone for this matter.

Although he was still unwilling in his heart, Hsu Wei knew that staying here could only increase the ridicule of others. Since Lin Wuhui had already given himself a way out, he took advantage of the situation and cupped his hands towards Lin Wuhui: "Since Great Sect Master has said so, then this old man will return first. But Sect Master Zhuo, I will put it bluntly here, my Origin Sect will not let this matter rest!"

Zhuo Bufan lightly said to Hsu Wei: "As for what happened afterwards, that is the matter within your Origin Sect, it has nothing to do with my Duobao Sect. As long as something as illogical as today does not happen again, I will not intervene.

"Humph!" Hsu Wei let out a cold snort, and immediately left the inn with the rest of the practitioners of Origin Sect. The originally bustling hall was now extremely cold and cheerless.

Due to the relationship between Origin Sect and the group of people, ordinary people did not dare to linger around the inn. This resulted in not a single person being seen other than the two brothers, Zhuo Bufan, Sun steelmaking Great Sect Master, and Nie Zhen.

At this time, after Lin Wuhui sized up Zhuo Bufan, he said to Zhuo Bufan, "Sect Master Zhuo, I presume that your message token has received the news?"

Lin Wuhui's attention was currently completely focused on Zhuo Bufan, and he did not even bother to look at the two Duobao Sect disciples behind Zhuo Bufan.

Qin Wuyan and Nie Zhen didn't know what Lin Wuhui's words meant. However, Zhuo Bufan did take out the message token to take a look, and his expression had clearly changed.

As for Zhuo Bufan, the two of them knew him very well. From the start, when Hsu Wei led the Origin Sect army to press down on the land, Zhuo Bufan had always been indifferent, and his expression had not even changed. However, when Zhuo Bufan read the contents of the transmission spirit tablet, his expression changed.

Zhuo Bufan looked at Liu Tie and nodded. He replied, "That's right. Sect Master Lin must have received this message and that's why he came here today, right?"

Lin Wuhui did not comment, and then said lightly to Zhuo Bufan: "Sect Master Zhuo, this is a very important matter, it seems we need our Three Sects's leaders to discuss it, what do you think?"

Zhuo Bufan nodded and said in a deep voice, "Indeed."

With that, Zhuo Bufan turned around and said to Nie Zhen and Wu Tie: "The two of you go back first. This sect leader and Sect Master Lin have something to discuss with the Great Valley Master of the Ice River Valley."

"Disciple obeys!" Nie Zhen and Qin Wuyan could tell from Zhuo Bufan's expression that this matter was definitely very important and they did not dare to disobey immediately.

With that, Zhuo Bufan and Lin Wuhui left the inn at the same time. With a flash of light, the two of them disappeared.

Nie Zhen and Qin Wuyan looked at each other. They didn't know what had happened and quickly went back to the second floor to look for Second Sect Master and Fifth Sect Master.

In the next moment, in a quiet courtyard with four sides, in an ancient room, three middle-aged men were sitting in a separate room.2

The two who were seated in the guest seats, one on the left and one on the right, were Duobao Sect Great Sect Master and Zhuo Bufan, and Origin Sect Great Sect Master and Lin Wuhui. The two of them were currently drinking tea.

Sitting on the main seat was an old man wearing a white robe. He had white hair that hung down naturally, and his beard reached his waist. He could not help but exude an icy aura.

This person's appearance was similar to an old man, especially when compared to Zhuo Bufan and Lin Wuhui, he looked even more old. However, Zhuo Bufan and Lin Wuhui would not underestimate this Great Valley Master, Bing Tianya, who was also a Heavenly Sage Stage expert, because of this.

Ice River Valley and Duobao Sect had come to the Yuan Yuan Empire to participate in the Three Sects exchange competition this time, and there were only three days left until the exchange competition, so naturally, the people from the two sects were all present.

Unlike Duobao Sect, which could directly rent an inn, Ice River Valley's method was to rent an entire courtyard in a quiet place. And currently, Zhuo Bufan and Lin Wuhui, were precisely arriving at the courtyard the Ice River Valley team was renting.

After three rounds of sightseeing, Lin Wuhui, who was the host, took the lead and said, "Icy Valley's Valley Master, Sect Master Zhuo and I have come specially to pay you a visit. You should already know the purpose of this visit, right?"

Bing Tianya nodded and said slowly, "But that message we received earlier?"

The other two nodded their heads, and Zhuo Bufan said: "The only leader of the Nine Palace Great Empire, Jiugong Sect, personally sent a message to the three of us, asking us to organize an exchange competition between the three of you. The two other people nodded their heads, and Zhuo Bufan said:" The only leader of the Nine Palace Great Empire, Jiugong Sect Grand Sect Master, personally sent a message to the three of us, requesting us to jointly organize an exchange competition between the three of you.

Lin Wuhui was the first to answer: "This Jiugong Sect is really strange, of our three great empires, only the Nine Palace Great Empire has the strongest Jiugong Sect, the Nine Palace Great Empire has the strongest Jiugong Sect, if we were to talk about it, then the power of the Jiugong Sect should be stronger than any of our single sect, but their style has always been to sweep the snow from their doors, and they have never participated in any other sects' matters, so there must be a secret behind this matter."

Zhuo Bufan nodded his head and agreed: "And this time, the Jiugong Sect threatened to take out two prizes from his own pocket for the champion of the tournament. The rewards are of such high quality that it has already surpassed the boundaries of our three empires."

Usually, the champion prizes would be shared evenly between the top few sects, which was reasonable. For example, in the Three Sects exchange competition that was going to be held soon, the final prize would be given by the three great sects.

But this time, Jiugong Sect was inviting other sects' people to participate in the exchange, and the Jiugong Sect was actually coming out of its own pocket.

In regards to this, Bing Tianya nodded and said: "That's right, the prize given by Jiugong Sect is just too shocking, in our three great empires, we have never heard of a treasure of this level appearing, but we never would have thought that not only does it appear in Jiugong Sect, it is also treated as a prize by Jiugong Sect. In this old man's opinion, this event is either a demonstration by Jiugong Sect, showing us that the treasures at this level can be treated as prizes as well, or the Jiugong Sect has confidence, and the people they send have the ability to suppress all the talented people in our other sects, no matter what happens, this prize is his Jiugong Sect, at the same time it is also a demonstration!"

San Great Sect Master was a smart person, they thought of this as soon as the message was sent.

"Then... What do we decide this time? Are you going to participate? " Lin Wuhui stroked his beard and asked Great Sect Master.
