A Good Person

Isn't this bullying? Good thing I came prepared, Gu Wufang thought. "A gentleman uses words, not fists! Our junior martial uncle used to be a scholar through and through. Before he left, he even came to Sect Master Peak to help me with official business. If he finds out you tore my mouth apart, he definitely won't... You're actually doing it!"

An Outer Sect disciple guarding the gate gripped his sword, looking worried. "Senior brother, is everything really all right in there?" Should they call for help?

"No need. Just a little scuffle. Happens all the time. This your first?"

...Was it really a little scuffle? Why did he feel as though the roof of the hall was about to fly off?!

"Relax. The Heaven-Shattering Sword Sect is so friendly. Nobody's going to die."

The gatekeeping disciple: ...

While the fight here raged "hot and heavy," the commotion at the mountain gate finally ended after a war of words. Some people did ask what fortuitous opportunity Wen Xu had just obtained, but Zhao Qi and Venerable Mo Rong fended them off. By the time they settled in on Guest Peak, the evening glow had quietly climbed into the treetops.

Guest Peak covered a vast area. The Five Sects Assembly was a grand event in the Cultivation Realm, and besides the Five Major Sects, smaller sects and Rogue Cultivators had naturally come to attend. Hehe Sect, Bitter Crossing Temple, and Yonglu Mountain each occupied a peak; everyone else could take whichever peak they reached first. The Heaven-Shattering Sword Sect wasn't particularly keen on arranging sect formations anyway, and the spiritual energy on each peak was much the same.

"Whew, that was scary. I once thought about joining the Heaven-Shattering Sword Sect, but looking back, I really didn't know my own limits."
