Chapter 43: Senior Sister of the Five Elements Sect Comes to Visit!
The three continued to drink and chat.
Senior Brother took the opportunity to teach Lin Beifan a few moves again, and also imparted his experience of advancing to the Divine Core stage to Bai Yiyi, benefiting them greatly.
Bai Yiyi was surprised to find that Senior Brother seemed to have really changed.
No longer as dull, cold, and serious as before, but instead a bit carefree, enjoying drinking, laughing, and behaving like a wandering hero.
Furthermore, she noticed that Senior Brother seemed to treat Lin Beifan very well.
During their conversation, he hardly looked at her, but instead focused most of his attention on Lin Beifan.
He cared for him meticulously and occasionally showed happy and gratified smiles.
The way he looked at him was like treating his own younger brother, pleasing in every way.
Could it be that Senior Brother really considers Lin Beifan as his brother?
Bai Yiyi’s lingering worries eased slightly.
At this moment, Senior Brother set down his wine glass and said seriously, “By the way, people from the Five Elements Sect are coming. Do you know?”
Bai Yiyi nodded, “I know, the ten-year period has come to an end, and they are indeed coming! I wonder what kind of disciples they will send?”
“Whoever it is, they will undoubtedly be the most outstanding disciples of the Five Elements Sect!” Senior Brother said.
Although their words sounded cryptic, Lin Beifan knew what they were talking about, which involved the origin of the Tai Xuan Sword Sect.
The ancestors of the Tai Xuan Sword Sect and the Five Elements Sect were actually brothers.
They were both extraordinarily talented, but one excelled in swordsmanship, while the other excelled in the Five Elements technique. Eventually, they founded their respective sects, becoming legends for all time.
Due to the relationship between the ancestors, the two sects had been on good terms for generations.
In addition to the usual exchanges, they also agreed to send disciples to each other every ten years for exchange visits, lasting for one year.
This was somewhat similar to the exchange student system in universities.
Last time, it was disciples from the Tai Xuan Sword Sect visiting the Five Elements Sect, so this time it was their turn to come.
“Sister Bai, with your innate spiritual roots and being an outstanding disciple among our outer disciples, they will certainly not overlook you. Combat is inevitable, so I hope you are prepared early!” Senior Brother reminded.
When disciples from different sects interacted, clashes were inevitable, and fighting was bound to occur.
Among these outstanding disciples, there was sure to be a showdown.
This battle not only represented oneself but also the dignity of the sect. No one wanted to lose.
Bai Yiyi suddenly felt immense pressure: “I will break through as soon as possible!”
“Do your best, don’t force it!”
At this point, Senior Brother turned to look at Lin Beifan and said, “And Junior Brother, you also need to be careful!”
Lin Beifan was puzzled, “What does this have to do with me?”
“I’m just a novice disciple, how does this concern me?” Senior Brother chuckled, “As far as I know, the senior sister from the outer sect of the Five Elements Sect should be coming. Her name is Lei Ruo, and like you, she practices lightning attribute cultivation. She is very combative and can’t help but take action when she encounters a suitable opponent.”
“When she was in the Five Elements Sect, she had countless battles, almost every outer disciple was beaten by her, earning her the nickname ‘Thunder Tiger’! Coming to our Tai Xuan Sword Sect, she shouldn’t change her nature.”
“Although your strength is weak, with your rare lightning attribute, she will definitely not overlook you!”
Lin Beifan felt very innocent, “Isn’t that too much? Even if she’s strong and wants to fight, she shouldn’t come looking for a small fry like me, she should still consider her reputation!”
Senior Brother shook his head, “It’s hard to say, just be careful!”
Lin Beifan didn’t take this warning seriously.
Two days later, disciples from the Five Elements Sect arrived, totaling ten people, all of them strong at the Divine Sea Realm or above.
The sect attached great importance to this, and even held a grand welcoming ceremony.
Lin Beifan didn’t care about this matter, sticking to his routine of either studying in the transmission pavilion or practicing at home, dreaming, creating, or exploding soldiers.
Although the days were mundane, his strength grew every day, immersing him in it.
But one day, a girl wearing a purple armor, with a ponytail and a heroic face, came to Lin Beifan’s doorstep.
“The only lightning attribute cultivator of your sect, Lin Beifan, does he live here?”
“That’s right! But he just joined this year, at the Divine Power Realm, I’m afraid…”
“Don’t worry, I won’t bully him!”
The girl stopped at the door, shouting loudly, “Lin Beifan, I am Lei Ruo, the outer sect senior sister of the Five Elements Sect, a lightning attribute cultivator. I am challenging you now, come out and fight!”
Her voice echoed far and wide.
“Huh? Lei Ruo from the Five Elements Sect actually came to find Lin Beifan?”
“What’s going on? Lei Ruo is a strong Divine Pill expert, why would she come to challenge Lin Beifan?”
“I don’t understand either, there’s a huge disparity in their strength, like an elephant and an ant, they can’t possibly fight!”
“So, what’s going on?”
“Regardless, let’s go and see, there might be a good show!”
…
The crowd quickly gathered.
Lin Beifan, who was practicing, opened his eyes, his face full of astonishment.
“Oh my god! Did she really come to my doorstep?”
