1084: Chapter 1084: News of an Old Friend 1084: Chapter 1084: News of an Old Friend Through conversation, Fang Bai learned that Zhuge Lian was visiting under the guise of an “old friend.”
Although Zhuge Lian was only seventeen or eighteen years old, she was a personal transmission disciple of the Xuannv Sect, a third-rank power.
In terms of realm and status, she was on par with Ren Jingbo, the dean of the Bitao Martial Academy.
Therefore, in her presence, Ge Feng had to maintain a degree of respect.
Before Fang Bai returned, Ge Feng had personally chatted with Zhuge Lian for a while and knew that she valued Fang Bai highly, which secretly pleased him.
The Xuannv Sect, to which Zhuge Lian belonged, was a third-rank power capable of standing shoulder to shoulder with the Purple Fla Sect.
If through the relationship between Fang Bai and Zhuge Lian, the Bitao Martial Academy could forge good ties with the Xuannv Sect, it would an finding a strong backer for the academy.
In such a case, sects like the Fiery Sect would think twice before clashing with the Bitao Martial Academy.
And the Purple Fla Sect would have to weigh their options more carefully before suppressing the Bitao Martial Academy.
Not only Ge Feng, but even Shen Yulin, Huang Miao, and other disciples of Bitao Martial Academy shared this thought, hoping that the academy could seize this opportunity to draw closer to the Xuannv Sect, which would bring multiple benefits.
Yang Lin stood at the back of the crowd, his eyes on the ground, as cold sweat continuously ford on his back.
He never imagined that Fang Bai would be acquainted with a disciple from the Xuannv Sect.
Seeing the expressions and deanor between Zhuge Lian and Fang Bai when they t, he knew their relationship was good.
While feeling envious, jealous, and resentful, his fear intensified, worried that his act of betrayal to the Purple Fla Sect might be exposed.
According to the rules of Bitao Martial Academy, Yang Lin’s actions were punishable by death.
Ge Feng and others were curious about how Fang Bai and Zhuge Lian had t.
When asked, Fang Bai exchanged glances with Zhuge Lian and casually concocted that they had t during a past training and had faced several dangerous challenges together, forming a deep friendship in battle.
Their eting at the Purple Fla Sect was also unexpected.
Zhuge Lian knew that Fang Bai ca from the Secular World and that they had t because of her father who fell in the Secular World.
Hearing Fang Bai lie, she did not expose him but instead smiled and cooperated with him in the deceit.
Regarding the relationship between Fang Bai and Zhge Lian, Ge Feng and the others did not dwell too deeply.
In their view, Zhuge Lian was a personal transmission disciple of a third-rank sect with Desolate Level Perfection strength, just a step away from advancing to the Vast Level Realm.
Her status was equivalent to a Sect Master of a fourth-rank sect.
While Fang Bai was rely a core disciple of a fourth-rank sect, his cultivation level was only at the upper realm of Heaven Rank, with a long way to go before reaching the Desolate Level Realm.
In terms of both status and strength, Fang Bai and Zhuge Lian had a huge gap and were not on the sa level.
Moreover, so sect disciples had to follow the arrangents of their sect’s higher-ups when choosing Martial Dao partners, having no say in the matter, so it was unlikely that Fang Bai and Zhuge Lian could have a deeper relationship.
However, Liu Qingqing, who was sensitive and ticulous, paid special attention to Zhuge Lian.
Seeing that her gaze, like her own, mostly rested on Fang Bai and that her expressions showed admiration, she knew this girl of similar age to herself must also like Brother Fang.
Since there was a martial contest early the next morning among the great sects, crucial for the resource distribution in Thousand Lakes Country for the next five years, it was vitally important for all the great sects.
Thus, Zhuge Lian did not stay long and took her leave soon to allow the Bitao Martial Academy disciples to rest and cultivate in peace.
“Zu Yu’s face was ruined, the matter of your marriage alliance with a Purple Fla Sect disciple should no longer be raised, right?”
As Fang Bai escorted Zhuge Lian out of the courtyard, he created an Essence Energy Shield to isolate the inside from the outside to prevent their voices from being heard by the Purple Fla Sect disciples and spoke to Zhuge Lian.
Zhuge Lian said, “It shouldn’t be for a while.
After all, aside from Zu Yu, there are no other disciples in the Purple Fla Sect who match .
However…though the matter of my marriage alliance with Zu Yu has been called off, the marriage alliance between the two sects will still continue, just with soone else.
I heard that Elder Han is discussing with the Ancestor Master of the Purple Fla Sect about arranging an alliance marriage for one of our Xuannv Sect’s external courtyard disciples, Linghu Qianjiao, with a core disciple from the Purple Fla Sect…”
Fang Bai’s head buzzed when he heard the na “Linghu Qianjiao,” suddenly recalling that back in the Secular World, Linghu Hongyan had ntioned she was a disciple of the Xuannv Sect in the True Martial Realm.
When Linghu Hongyan returned to the True Martial Realm via a Teleportation Array, both Linghu Qianjiao and Linghu Baii had gone with her.
If Linghu Qianjiao was at the Xuannv Sect, then her master Linghu Hongyang and her sister Linghu Baii must also be there, right?
After arriving in the True Martial Realm of the Minor World, this was the first ti Fang Bai had received news of soone from the Secular World.
Overwheld with emotion, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Zhuge Lian’s shoulders, urgently asking, “Where is Linghu Qianjiao now?”
Zhuge Lian was startled by Fang Bai suddenly seizing her shoulders and complained, “Brother Fang, you’re hurting !”
Seeing her furrowed brows and pained expression, Fang Bai quickly let go and apologized, “I’m sorry, Xiao Lian, I got too excited…”
“Do you know Junior Sister Linghu?”
Zhuge Lian, rubbing her slightly painful shoulders and tilting her head, asked.
Fang Bai nodded and said, “She’s a friend from the Secular World.
Oh, she also has a sister nad Linghu Baii; are they both in your sect?”
Zhuge Lian replied, “Yes.
The two sisters are currently External Courtyard Disciples with a cultivation level of Desolate Level beginner stage.”
“Are they both okay?”
Fang Bai asked again.
In the Martial Dao World of the True Martial Realm, where the law of the survival of the fittest and malicious hearts prevail, a slight carelessness could lead to disaster; Fang Bai sincerely hoped that every acquaintance from the Secular World who ca to the Minor World was living well.
“This…”
Zhuge Lian hesitated for a mont, then sighed lightly, “They are a bit disobedient, disliked by the higher-ups, so…
their lives are not exactly good…”
Fang Bai’s expression changed slightly, his eyes emitting a chilling coldness as he sternly said, “Xiao Lian, tell honestly, how are they not living well?
Have they been mistreated?”
Zhuge Lian, sensing the explosive aura from Fang Bai and the sky-high killing intent forming an oppressive force—even though it was not directed at her—still felt a shudder of imminent death.
She had never experienced such a feeling even when facing the furious Xuannv Sect Master.
“Brother Fang’s power is even stronger than the Sect Master!
Has his true strength already reached the Cosmic Level Realm?”
Zhuge Lian stared at Fang Bai dumbfounded, her face filled with disbelief.
When she first t Fang Bai, Zhuge Lian had felt that he was unfathomably strong, likely a Vast Level Expert.
Only now did she realize she had greatly underestimated him.
“Should I really tell Brother Fang?”
Zhuge Lian was torn, her expression filled with worry.
