Chapter 101 (2/2)
”I thought, Senior Brother Garen, that you would have come sooner I didn't expect you to be late” A white towel draped over Rampas' shoulder; his body radiated heat as he walked out of the room He sat across from Garen The attendant on the side served some aromatic milk coffee
”Miss, why aren't you sitting?” Rampas looked at Grace; he didn't knohat her relationshi+p with Garen was
”It's fine I'll just stand,” Grace declined respectfully She silently stood behind Garen and insisted on not sitting down
After disht, picked up the coffee and took a swig Coer, now he seemed more confident and had the relaxed and calm manner of a master
”Apologies, Senior Brother Garen All the other elders of the Gate are busy entertaining the masters and representatives froth of the whole Southern Twelve Gates is gathered here at Seven Moon Gate, so they're a little preoccupied to receive you And since you saved my life, and we're both familiar with each other, it has fallen to me to entertain you I hope you don't etically
”Not at all Receiving guests istimes, I don't really mind” Garen smiled ”Just that this time I'm here, I'd like to take a look at some low-level Secret Martial Art collections fro all the way back I want to see if I can read more on other Secret Martial Arts to broaden my martial arts perspective”
”This Secret Martial Art…” Rah spot ”Senior Brother Garen, you should be clear that Secret Martial Arts, albeit at low levels, are the foundations on which sects are established On this matter… I'm afraid I can't make the decision”
”Just tell ht what conditions you have,” Garen said calmly
”I need to consult the Elder Deputy Sect Master Please wait for a o home empty handed either After all, he had witnessed Garen's powerful true strength along the journey A Secret Martial Art practitioner with such great potential, the only option was to stay on his good side, particularly in such critical times
”I'll wait for you here then,” Garen took a sip of his coffee
”Alright I'll be back in a moment” Rampas stood up and left from the side door
”He's just a junior For the fact that he escorted the Sect Master back, we'll give him someto us for refuge and support What support? It's just money they want Do they think money falls from the sky for the Seven Moon Group? Just a feords, open their et a few million? What a joke!”
”But Elder, Senior Brother Garen isn't here for money…” Rampas frowned as he tried to draw a distinction He found Great Elder Cay in the conference rooered by so his tea
”Not money? What then?” the Great Elder was curious, and i
”Senior Brother wants to have a look at low-level Secret Martial Art…”
”What? Secret Martial Art! Ask hiht now!” the Senior Elder stood up at once, infuriated ”Have hi to be requested by a s a look, they don't even have the right to think about it! What does White Cloud Gate think it is anyway? Nothing but a puny third-grade sect How dare they threaten us at this hour? They think we can't fend off Celestial Circle Gate without them? What a joke! Any random Secret Martial Art from Seven Moon Gate would be far more powerful than their Secret Mammoth Technique!” The Great Elder trembled with fury
”Great Elder—” Ra but was cut off by the Great Elder
”Say no more In this incident, the Sect Master was heavily injured and is now unconscious, but I see that you're safe and sound Good for you! Very well done! I still haven't disciplined all of you for that Now you're asking for a favor on behalf of someone else?” The Great Elder stood up and furiously walked out the door He passed through the corridors and was soon out of sight
Ra him all the way
In a corridor connected to this corridor, Garen walked out of the room with Grace, a terrible expression on his face
The conference room that the Great Elder was in was not far fro attained the powerful hearing of a Grand said
”Let's go I thought Seven Moon Gate needed my help, and we could join forces to defeat Celestial Circle Gate, but it seems that they couldn't care less about a mediocre sect like ours ” Garen said in a calm tone, then turned to leave from the way he came
Grace followed closely behind him
Not long after Raot wind about Garen and Grace's departure He instantly knew that this spelled trouble Apart fro what they had said, there was no other reason that Garen would have left abruptly without saying goodbye
He guessed it immediately: Garen must have been impatient when he didn't return, so he walked out of his room and overheard the conversation in the conference room
”Great Elder!” he roared as he couldn't hold it in any longer
The Great Elder walking in front turned around in shock
”You're… shouting at me?”
The ry and felt offended His face was red with anger as he stood panting in the corridor
”Great Elder! Senior Brother Garen has left Are you happy now?”
”What gives you the right to shout at me?” The Great Elder's expression turned somber ”What does it have to do with me, whether he's left or not?”
”Senior Brother Garen saved the Sect Master and all of our lives! Is that the way Seven Moon Gate should treat hiht that the Great Elder had a hot teood-natured He didn't expect hi in this matter and act out impulsively like this
”No one needs his saving! Who begged him to save anyone? What a joke! Saved the Sect Master? Saved all of you?” the Great Elder sniggered ”I' you Rampas, Celestial Circle Gate is powerful, but Seven Moon Gate is no lightweight either Even without that Garen, would they dare touch any of our people? Even if the Sect Master is unconscious froe, would Celestial Circle Gate dare touch hi, and yet you dare shout at me?! Do you even knohat the true assets of Seven Moon Gate are?!”
