Chapter 171: Back to Hong Wu Sect (2/2)

”Yes,” Alex replied.

”Alright. Master wanted me to tell you a few different things. He wanted to tell you himself, but he understood how hard it was for you with so many Elders in front of your door.” Liu Xun shook his head.

'Elders in front of my house? Hope they don't get mad just because I ignored them,' he thought.

”Anyway, the no-reply tactic must've worked since all the Elders left you so soon. Oh yeah, I completely forgot about the master's message,” Liu Xun said.

”What is it, Senior Brother?” he asked.

”Since it is unlikely you will be representing Tiger Sect in the Annual sect competition, Master wants you to focus solely on improving the Hong Wu Sect's points in the competition.

”We are pretty much guaranteed to upgrade to a First Grade sect even if we fail a majority of the events, but Hong Wu Sect requires quite a lot still, so you should do it. ”

”Also, don't worry about hiding your face or anything in front of the Tiger Sect. Master plans to reveal your relationship the next time you come back to the sect.” Liu Xun finished speaking.

”I see. I will do as master says,” Alex replied. ”Also, can you return it to the library for me brother? I completely forgot.” Alex handed the book about clones to Liu Xun.

”Alright. Goodbye little brother, see you in 2 weeks.” Liu Xun saw him off.

Alex walked out of the gate and went past the busy market.

”Hey, isn't that the new disciple?” somebody spoke.

”What new disciple?” somebody asked.

”You know, the one from the battle yesterday,” the first person spoke.

”Hey, that's him right?” another person spoke.

”I was there during the fight, it's definitely him,” another person spoke.

'It seems more people know of me than I had hoped,' Alex thought. He quietly walked past the market and when nobody was looking at him, he entered a quiet alleyway. He took off his yellow robes and swiftly changed into green ones.

After walking out of the alleyway now, he was a Hong Wu Sect disciple. He slowly walked back to the sect, while looking through the entire city.

'I have never been to this part of the town, have I?' he thought. He kept looking around and finally saw something that surprised him a little.

”Oh, so this is where it is,” he thought. In front of him was a store with many people walking in and out of it. The store was quite big compared to its surroundings and was ran by young men and women wearing green robes.

This was the Hong Wu Sect's Pill store. This was where most of the higher grade pills ended up after they were sold by the disciples. Most of the people working here were Inner Sect disciples, with a few elders behind looking over the entire thing.

'No wonder I never saw it. It was in such a place. I never had even bothered walking this way,' Alex thought. He had heard about it from his master but had never actually seen it before. Having finally seen it, He walked towards the sect's direction and reached it very soon.
