Chapter 1149 Sixteen Sects, Eight Factions!

The arrival of the individual cultivators drew deafening cheers from the crowd outside the inn.

After all, those onlookers didn’t get to witness scenes like that every day. Although their names were well-known, most people couldn’t recognize them, for they usually kept their identities hidden. Therefore, when each of them showed up and revealed his or her identity, the crowd waiting outside would break into loud cheers.

Almost all the famous individual cultivators had arrived.

The people who stood outside the inn knew that it was time for the great ones to make their entrance.

That was exactly what was about to happen.

Just when everyone was on the verge of high expectations for the arrival of the big shots, they heard footsteps approaching.

“Qingcheng Sect!”

Fang Qiu turned around and heard someone in the crowd yell.

He settled his gaze on the people coming.

The two people dressed similarly were remarkably handsome, their distinguished behavior akin to that of immortals.

“They are the sect leader of the Qingcheng Sect, one of the sixteen sects, and his deputy.”

He Gaoming introduced them briefly to inform John Doe of the general situation.

Fang Qiu came forward to greet them.

......

Then, he welcomed them into the inn.

After them, people from the other sects also arrived one by one.

In addition to the Qingcheng Sect, there were Hengshan Sect, Wanchou Sect, Iron-palm Sect, Tantric Sect, Jingang Sect, Sea-sand Sect, Green-bamboo Sect, Snow-mountain Sect, Celestial-glow Sect, Divine-fist Sect, Sanmen Sect, Yuzhen Sect, Five-poison Sect, and Fairyland Sect.

All in all, there were fifteen sects.

John Doe welcomed them, one by one.

After seeing the representatives of the fifteen sects coming in, many people crowding before the inn sighed with emotion.

“Originally, there were four clans, eight factions, and sixteen sects in Wulin, but now there are only fifteen sects left. What a pity.”

“Yes, it was a pity. The Luo Yin Sect, which was originally among the sixteen sects, would have a promising future if it hadn’t provoked the wrong person.”

The atmosphere was very lively at the scene.

More than that, the party attracted hundreds of thousands of viewers to the livestream on the Wulin online forum.

“There’s a saying about the four clans, eight factions, and sixteen sects showing off... Does any well-informed person know about it?”

“I don’t know.”

“There’s a saying? I’ve never heard of it!”

“These four clans, eight factions, and sixteen sects have already occupied the entire Wulin. How can there be anything else? Can there be another Wulin?”

“Think about it carefully. John Doe is awesome. He brought down a sect, one of the sixteen sects, all by himself. He is truly a formidable opponent.”

“But it was just one of the sixteen sects, right? Not long ago, with his men, John Doe broke into the Peace Faction, which belongs to the eight factions!”

“The force under John Doe’s charge is obviously superior to the eight factions!”

...

The livestream viewers and the crowd before the inn were animatedly discussing the party. At this time, people who represented the eight factions arrived.

The first person to arrive at the inn on Mount Hua was Lin Qingyi, Peace Faction’s leader, who had a head-on clash with John Doe.

This time, Lin Qingyi also brought only one person with him.

Surprisingly, they did not see any awkwardness between John Doe and Lin Qingyi when they met. Instead, they treated each other with respect and enthusiasm.

After all, both of them were very rational and knew well the conflict between them was not a problem, and neither of them did anything wrong. So, they treated each other with utmost courtesy.

In addition to the Peace Faction, there were seven other factions: Unfettered Faction, Kongtong Faction, Constellation Faction, Tianshan Faction, Duanmen Faction, Infinite Faction, and Heavenly-dragon Faction.

These eight factions in Wulin had existed since ancient times, and they all had a long history.

When the eight factions arrived, Fang Qiu greeted them and invited them into the inn in person!

All the eight factions were here.

Outside the inn, the crowd of onlookers was startled.

“John Doe has considerable appeal. So far, all four clans, eight factions, and sixteen sects have sent some people to attend the party. Besides the four clans, leaders of all eight factions and sixteen sects have also come in person. Isn’t that an astounding success?”

“Amazing. It’s usually hard to catch a glimpse of even one of the eight factions and sixteen sects. None of us had expected that John Doe would be able to gather all these powerful people together just by his invitation alone.”

“John Doe really lives up to his reputation.”

“Nowadays in Wulin, John Doe’s strength is undoubtedly the best among the younger generation. Even many masters of the older generation are no match for him. After receiving his invitation card, they have to show him respect.”

“I suppose the leaders from the four great families won’t come, right?”

Meanwhile...

On the Wulin online forum, everyone was engaged in a lively discussion

“What the f*ck, is John Doe gathering all the forces in Wulin?”

“He rocks! All of them are here!”

“Obviously, all the major forces in Wulin have acknowledged John Doe now.”

“Even if one leader of the eight factions invited these people in person, he might not be able to get so many guests and turn the wine party into such a grand occasion, right? Except for John Doe, I’m afraid only the four families and the Pear Garden can gather so many masters from each force in Wulin.”

“I didn’t expect John Doe’s influence to be so immense.”

...

Of course, Fang Qiu was not aware of the heated discussion that flew back and forth on the Internet, and neither did the party’s guests.

Finally, Fang Qiu finished receiving the people from the eight factions.

He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

When he first arrived in Jiangjing, he didn’t even know where Wulin was and what was going on in Wulin. If he wanted to participate in a small martial arts competition, he had to spend a lot of time and effort to locate the place by following the rich second generation

But now, two years passed.

His invitation cards could bring the masters from all the major forces in Wulin to him. The steep rise of his strength made a huge difference!

Upon arriving at the main hall, masters from the eight factions began to observe John Doe secretly. However, they found that they could not discern what his strength was at all, which surprised them a little.

Not long after people from the eight factions took their seats, footsteps sounded on the road outside.

An old man slowly approached.

Fang Qiu took a closer look.

The elder was none other than the guru of Chic Cloud Pavilion, an auction agency.

“Senior.”

Seeing the elder, Fang Qiu hurried out to greet him.

“I smelled the liquor fragrance by the door. The smell is extraordinary. I can enjoy some superb liquor today, can’t I?”

The elder laughed out loud and walked into the inn led by Fang Qiu. He went straight to the second floor and sat alone at one table.

Seeing this, the Wulin people outside the inn and in the hall were curious.

Who was this old man?

His face was unfamiliar to all of them, so no one knew who he was. And after careful observation, they found him to be just an ordinary person.

But if he was an ordinary old man, how could Fang Qiu personally welcome him in and send him to the VIP area and accorded him the greatest respect?

Everyone was seized by curiosity, but the old man waited leisurely.

He Gaoming asked his brothers to bring various dried nuts and fruits, which were quickly placed on every table in the VIP area on the second floor.

After all, these people were distinguished guests, so they deserved special treatment and services.

Fang Qiu accompanied the elder all the way to his seat in the VIP area.

He went downstairs.

Before he reached the door, there was a commotion outside the door!

Fang Qiu hurried out.

Outside the door came a middle-aged man wearing a robe embroidered with ink paintings done in an antique style. This man had extremely delicate features and was very handsome, with looks that appealed to many people. He appeared feminine but had masculine charm at the same time. Anyway, he presented an ethereally beautiful image.

“Master.”

Before the man reached the door, He Gaoming rushed to Fang Qiu and said, “Meng Lingyun. He is the deputy principal of the Pear Garden and Yun Yangzi’s martial uncle.”

“Oh?”

Fang Qiu was shocked and hurried to greet him.

He didn’t expect that even the mysterious deputy principal of the Pear Garden would turn up.

“Principal Meng.”

Fang Qiu lost no time in greeting him.

“I’m not the principal but the chief.”

Meng Lingyun smiled and said kindly, “Never mind. You don’t know the rules of Pear Garden, so it doesn’t matter.”

“I’ll keep it in mind.”

Fang Qiu cupped his hands while nodding. Then, he pointed to the inn and said, “Chief Meng, please!”

“Okay.”

Meng Lingyun nodded with a smile and then walked into the inn after Fang Qiu.

His seat was also in the VIP area.

Seeing Meng Lingyun coming in, Yun Yangzi immediately went downstairs to welcome him.

In the main hall, all the people from the eight factions and sixteen sects also stood up to greet Meng Lingyun. Besides, in the VIP area, all the young generation of the four great families and individual cultivators in Wulin also stood up to welcome Meng Lingyun.

It looked like Meng Lingyun was quite respected by all the masters in Wulin.

Along the way, Fang Qiu observed Meng Lingyun carefully.

He discovered that Meng Lingyun was also a guru, and he was a top-notch one.

“There seem to be at least two gurus in Pear Garden. No wonder it can be on a par with the great four families and become the most mysterious force in Wulin.”

Fang Qiu muttered to himself.

So far, Pear Garden had revealed the outstanding strength of two gurus, but even Fang Qiu didn’t know if its actual power was more than that. After all, it was normal for these top forces to have several mighty elders.

Meng Lingyun sat down.

Only then did Fang Qiu go downstairs. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net

“Gee? Isn’t the party going to start?”

“Everyone is here. Even Meng Lingyun from Pear Garden is here. There should be no one else more important than Meng Lingyun. Am I right? But why would John Doe rush out of the door again?”

“Could it be that someone else is coming?”

Not only the people in the hall but all the onlookers outside the door were also particularly curious.

But Fang Qiu didn’t explain anything to them.

He just stood alone in front of the door and waited.

Another five or six minutes passed.

When everyone was about to lose patience, a burst of laughter came along with the sound of footsteps.

Everyone turned to look.

Four middle-aged people appeared, walking side by side.

Three men and one woman!

From left to right were: Patriarch Qian, Xi Fengling, Diwu Mingchuan, and Elder Zhan!

They were the patriarchs of the four great families!

As soon as the four people appeared, there was a burst of exclamation in front of the inn.

No one present had expected that to happen.

The four patriarchs came together!

In particular, everyone had distinctly heard from Xi Shaolin that Xi Fengling, the Xi family’s patriarch, would not come.

“What the f*ck? I can’t believe my eyes!”

“The four patriarchs are all here. Oh, my God!”

“Damn it, how fantastic it would be if I had come a few hours earlier!”

“John Doe is truly highly respected by all in Wulin! Otherwise, how could he invite almost all the influential people in Wulin to his party?”

“Terrifying. It’s really great. I’m afraid that only John Doe is capable of gathering the four patriarchs in Wulin!”

Everyone was astoundingly shocked.

When the younger generation of the four great families came, everyone thought they had shown John Doe great respect. However, it never occurred to them that even the four patriarchs would come.

“Greetings, seniors.”

Fang Qiu hurried to greet them enthusiastically.

The reason why he stood at the door for such a long time was that he was waiting to welcome the four patriarchs!

“Well, not bad, not bad.”

“Brat, have you prepared the first-class liquor?”

“As the old saying goes, heroes always appear among the youth. Very good.”

The four patriarchs nodded in response.

After this greeting, Fang Qiu looked curiously toward Xi Fengling, the patriarch of the Xi family.
