Chapter 631 Arrival
After settling the messenger, Oliver hurried to Tarrou with the letter. After asking the students who had come to ask for advice to leave, he said gravely, "Taru, there's a letter from An Yao Hall."
When Tarrou heard the words "An Yao Guan", her expression became serious. She took the letter, opened it and took a look.
What caught my eye was the beautiful Dashun Jinge script. It began with a series of routine greetings, then used a few brief sentences to recall the origins of the two factions, and then stated the real purpose.
It is said that the two schools have had a tradition of learning skills from each other since ancient times.
When the previous Tarru was in office, the two factions had also exchanged ideas, so this time, An Yao Hall planned to send a disciple to compete with the current Tarru.
Although the tone seemed humble and polite, it was actually more like a notice, just telling them what to do without caring what they thought.
Gan Bo said worriedly, "They're not here with good intentions, and they're coming at this time. An Yao Hall is facing the rift. If they bring that thing with them, then as soon as Mr. Chen starts practicing tonight, they'll likely discover the existence of the rift."
"Do they really have that thing?" Tarrou asked.
Oliver said, "Your master has mentioned this. It is very possible."
When the boxing master from Danliu Gyuk was fighting against the sword master from Anyao Gyuk, he was carrying a token with him. It was said that the token could sense the existence of rifts from a long distance.
However, the crack had disappeared long ago, and everyone in the museum believed that the crack had disappeared, so this thing only had commemorative significance. The body of the ancestor was not sent back at that time, so it was most likely taken away by the people of An Yao Hall.
But the previous generation of Taru found the rift again, so this thing became valuable again. An Yaoguan might be able to guess the function of this thing. If the other party carries it with him this time, once he lands on the island, if Chen Chuan enters into practice at night, then it is possible to discover the true location of the rift through those abnormalities.
In fact, it would be useless even if Chen Chuan stopped practicing, because after the Ferris Wheel Company was gone, Danliu Hall was bound to be coveted by Anyao Hall, and this period was almost the last and best time for Anyao Hall to achieve its goal. They would definitely find the rift at all costs.
If they really can't find it, they probably won't allow the rift to be left to others. It's hard to say what An Yaoguan will do, and this is what Gan Bo is most worried about.
He thought for a moment and said, "Taru, it's difficult for us to deal with An Yao Hall with our strength. We still need to discuss this matter with Mr. Chen."
Tarrou nodded. "Let's go find Mr. Chen."
Chen Chuan was sitting in front of the lotus seat at the moment. Feeling two people approaching, he opened his eyes, stood up from where he was, and turned around and said, "Is An Yaoguan going to take action?"
Gan Bo was surprised and asked, "Mr. Chen, how did you know that?"
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Your spirits have already told me what you are facing right now."
He sensed a state of extreme alertness and vigilance in both men's auras and spirits, as if provoked by the prospect of facing a powerful opponent. Tarrou, on the other hand, was more active and enthusiastic, evidently not only fearing his opponent but also anticipating it.
The most likely place that could have caused this situation is the An Yao Hall mentioned earlier.
The relaxed look he displayed at the moment made Gan Bo relax a little. He calmed down and said, "An Yaoguan just sent a letter, but it's no different from an invitation to fight. Maybe their people will be here within the next two days."
Chen Chuan nodded slightly. He was actually mentally prepared for this. Even the Linax Federation's action team like Utiko had noticed Feiguang Island. How could a force like Anyao Pavilion, which had long been eyeing Danliu Pavilion, let it go?
If you miss this window of opportunity, you will never have another chance in the future.
"Old man, Tarrou," he said to them, "I have said before that we are both Purists, and since this matter concerns me as well, I shall stand with you in this matter."
After hearing what he said, Gan Bo couldn't help but feel relieved. Not to mention Chen Chuan's performance last night, he was actually able to see the inheritance of the secret method, which gave him a lot of confidence.
You have to know that the previous generation of Old Tarru didn't see these things until he was in his forties or fifties. He remembered that Old Tarru at that time was very powerful. In this ocean area, except for those sword masters who never showed up, he had hardly encountered any decent opponents.
He felt that even if Mr. Chen could not reach this level, at least close to it, he should be able to deal with the people coming from Anyao Pavilion, but he still had one concern.
He said, "An Yaoguan will most likely send his senior disciple No Kanehiro this time."
Chen Chuan had heard of this name during his conversation with San Cheng Huang, and had also learned a little about him from other sources, but that was all. San Cheng Huang had never met this person, so he asked, "How strong is Ye Jianhong?"
Oliver said, "It's said he's only averagely talented. If it were just him, Mr. Chen wouldn't have been difficult to deal with, but...
Before his passing, Old Tarru said that the senior disciple of each generation of An Yao Hall might not necessarily be the strongest in combat, but would certainly be the one most capable of bearing the spiritual aspirations of the Sword Sect.
Chen Chuan's heart stirred slightly. A spiritual sustenance? This reminded him of Jian Chengsheng.
"Old Tarrou said that all the overseas martial arts gyms that have survived to this day all have techniques for entrusting their spirits to their disciples. Some methods are gentle, some are rough, and some are necessary for training. An Yao Gakuen falls somewhere in between the latter two.
According to the tradition of An Yao Hall, Ye Jianhong's ability to become a senior disciple is not due to his proficiency in esoteric teachings, but rather to his ability to best accept the power of his teacher.
Perhaps fearing that Chen Chuan would be intimidated by this, he added, "However, the Sword Sect's power is too great. Although a disciple can accept his power, his tolerance is ultimately limited. Therefore, his strength should not reach a level that is impossible to contend with."
Chen Chuan nodded. This statement made sense. Even though there might be some exceptions, it was not incomprehensible. He said sincerely:
"You two, if Nokanehiro comes to the island and challenges him to a duel, please leave him to me. Although I'm not from the Danryukan school, you two are fellow members of the Pure School, and I can't avoid this matter either."
Oliver said gratefully, "Mr. Chen, thank you." Then, with a serious expression, he said, "In that case, Tarrou and I will go give An Yao Hall a formal reply."
Chen Chuan nodded.
After the two men left, he thought to himself that such an opponent must be very helpful in developing his own strength. Then he turned around and sat down in front of the lotus seat again.
Seven days later, a ferry sailed into Rowan Island despite huge waves. After the ship entered the port, several fighters wearing ancient costumes and with their hair in buns got off the ship in the pouring rain.
What they wore were the fighting uniforms of An Yao Hall.
There are many disciples from the three major halls overseas, and the fighting hall has many branches, but those who can wear these costumes are all from the main hall, which makes people at the port pay more attention to them.
These people surrounded a short and thin man. Judging from his figure, he looked like a teenager, but judging from his face, he was a young man.
The man had a confused look on his face, and didn't seem to be very intelligent, but the people accompanying him treated him with great respect.
At this moment, the thin young man turned his head and looked away, then suddenly broke away from the group and walked in a certain direction. The people behind him hurriedly came up and grabbed him, saying, "We need to find a place to stay first. We'll go to Feiguang Island when the weather improves. Please go this way."
The thin young man looked at him, his eyes became even more confused, and the other people came up to persuade him carefully, and then brought him back to the team, and then went to a hotel that had been arranged in advance.
Two days later, the strong wind that had lasted for more than ten days weakened a little, and the messenger came to the island again and delivered another letter to Oliver.
This was the second letter from An Yaoguan, saying that they had arrived at Rowan Island and were preparing to visit Tarrou of Danliuguan.
Oliver frowned.
Judging from the itinerary, the people from An Yao Guan set off almost on the day the letter was sent out, and did not wait for the reply from Dan Liu Guan. This shows that although An Yao Guan made some superficial cover-ups this time, that was all.
He looked at the time on his watch. The other party would arrive in about half an hour. They were pressing forward step by step, leaving them no room to react.
He let out a breath, selected a few disciples from the fighting gym, and brought them to the dock below to wait. Not long after waiting, he saw a sailboat coming from the sea.
As the boat gradually approached and docked at the pier, disciples dressed in Anyao Pavilion uniforms walked down from it one by one. They had sharp eyes as they walked, and each of them held the long sword at their waist, looking like they were ready to take action at any time.
Oliver walked up, and all the people looked at him, their eyes stabbing like knives.
He remained calm, walked up to these people, and said in a deep voice: "I am Olive, the instructor of Danliuguan. Tarrou asked me to come and greet you all." As he spoke, he bowed.
The group looked at him for a moment, and one of them came out and bowed in return.
"I am Shi Yuanba, a disciple of An Yao Pavilion. This time, I am following the instructions of my master and accompanying my senior brother to visit fellow practitioners of Dan Liu Pavilion. Please forgive me for any intrusion."
"So it's Mr. Shiyuan." Gan Bo looked behind him and said, "I wonder which one is Mr. Noken?"
Shi Yuanba's expression became serious. He straightened up and took a step to the side, revealing the confused, short and thin young man. He said solemnly, "This is my senior brother from An Yao Hall, Ye Jianhong."
