Chapter 713: Holy Flame Sect

In the time that Sage had been recovering from his death, training, or out on the run, the Tiankong siblings had all grown quite close with Ling. They had been working together to build the Prosperity Company up and to build the foundation for the Tiankong Clan. Now that they were here in the Holy Flame Sect, they were eager to see the things that they had heard about from Ling and visit the best restaurants and places of interest that shed told them about.

After the banquet, they started to get dragged to different sights by their friends. After a pair of extremely busy days, Sage asked for a favor from his three friends: Yuan Hu, Geng He, and Qiu Hou. He put them in charge of the Tiankong Siblings and the big group ran off to see all the sights. The next few days were spent alone with his new wife. At that point even their great stamina as cultivators was finally wearing out so they stopped to check in on everyone.

Ling went to see her friends and make the proper arrangements for her to be gone for a very long time. Left on his own, Sage was reminded of what Peak Master Lupeng had told him and he asked Peak Master Zhen to see the so-called Steam Army. Even if they were married, Ling wasnt allowed into the secret facility, so this was a perfect opportunity. It wasnt like he hadnt already told her about it, but there were rules to follow for the actual secret location of this force so he had to abide by them. In fact if he wasnt the source of their initial armaments, there was no way he would even know they exist, let alone be able to visit.

He was led down winding tunnels and corridors to a large stone vault door, which hid a Transportation Array. At this time, neither of the Peak Masters were with him, instead hed been led here by a person with a full hood covering their face. Peak Master Zhen called this person and told Sage to follow them. After leading him to the array, that person didnt step into it with him. Instead, as soon as he arrived at the other end of the Transportation Array there was a man waiting for him. The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñòv€l-B1n.

The mans clothing was the usual cloud gray of the Holy Flame Sect, but it was not the usual robed uniform of the Sect. Instead, the man had on trousers and a sleeveless shirt, with a wide leather belt covered with metal loops and hooks. Other than his unusual outfit, the most defining features of this man was his dirty and well muscled arms. Sage was surprised to see the man not in the Sects usual uniform. For the most part, women altered their uniform a little, while only the Peak Masters were able to wear whatever they wanted.

Lang Sheng?

Sage nodded and greeted the man with a clasped fist and bow of his head, That is I.

Thankfully, he wasnt left in limbo for too long. As soon as the first man had turned the corner of the big hanger doors, Sage was about to rush after him. At that moment, he heard footsteps behind him and turned back to the hanger. Inside this hanger, there was a large airship envelope lying on its side and blocking his view of everything that was going on inside. He could only hear the clanking sounds of metal upon metal along with unintelligible chatter in the distance. Then he heard footsteps approaching and he saw someone walk around the edge of the giant half-inflated balloon.

This person was also wearing the same outfit as the first man, but instead of having overly muscled arms, he had a bald head and there were tools hanging from the loops on his leather belt.

Did I ever sketch any leather tool belts?

With this odd thought, Sage realized it was not the style of tool belt of modern times. It was closer to a back belt or belly band. The wide leather completely covered them from just above the hips to just below the ribs. He wondered who had come up with that idea here. It was only an article of clothing after all, and there were many parallel inventions of things all over the world at different times. It was no great surprise that someone could also come up with a simple thing like a toolbelt with built in hooks and loops.

The bald man walked up to him with an appraising eye and smiled widely, Are you truly the infamous Lang Sheng that gave birth to this whole place? You sure dont look it.

Sage wasnt sure if he had been insulted, but he bowed and saluted the man with a clasped fist. He was able to maintain his decorum as he spoke, I am Lang Sheng. Who are you?

The mans eyes widened a little. Asking someone who are you was actually something of an insult in this world, clearly pointing out that a person was of so little repute that youd never heard of them. Then, instead of being offended the man laughed, Aha ha ha! Well said! Were a secret team after all, if anybody has heard of us, wed have to kill them!
