Chapter 58: Formatting
The Zhongnan Sect is one of the renowned sword factions even among the Nine Sects and One Union. Although it might slightly pale in comparison to Qingyuan Martial Hall or Huashan Sect, in the southern part of Shaanxi, their status was as high as the heavens. They had produced numerous peak-level masters over the generations and held numerous exceptional techniques, making them a prestigious sect among the prestigious, unquestioned by any in the martial world.
They were no less than the Twin Gates Sect of Luoyang I had challenged before! While the Twin Gates Sect might boast not being inferior to the Nine Factions and One Union within Luoyang, the Nine Sects were continental entities renowned throughout the land. In terms of recognition and influence among the orthodox factions, the Nine Sects were like Mount Tai, immovable.
That’s why I was incredulous and said to my senior brother, “Are we really challenging them?”
“Did junior disciple come all the way to Jeonggok, unpack in the inn, and now say such things?”
Jin So-cheong, who was enjoying a warm tea, chuckled.
“Don’t worry. The Zhongnan Sect is a prestigious orthodox sect; they won’t resort to cowardly acts rashly.”
“……”
We had already arrived in Jeonggok village. That meant we were right at the foot of Mt. Zhongnan, the stronghold of the Zhongnan Sect.
I glanced briefly at the peaks of Zhongnan Mountain visible through the inn’s window. Since Zhongnan Mountain wasn’t very high or rugged, traces of buildings were visible here and there. The buildings of the Zhongnan Sect of the Nine Factions and One Union must be among them.
