Chapter 246 - Conflict
Ning spent the next month or two teaching Anya the many new things that came with a higher level of knowledge books. He taught what he could to her that was still within in energy limit.
Unfortunately, it wasn't a lot. He couldn't buy the Omniscient levels of those knowledge he had as they cost extremely high. So he was forced to give her either intermediate or advanced.
It wasn't just medicinal books that he gave her. He also gave her the book on cultivation so that she could learn very many things that would otherwise take her her lifetime.
For the next two months, he saw her slowly grow as a cultivator and as a doctor. She was rapidly improving even as he taught her. And after a series of late-night cultivation, she reached the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Today was another day of treatment for the town folks. So, she was getting ready to leave. Her bodyguard appeared once again to take her.
Her treatment days were once a week or once every 2 weeks depending on her mood. She liked treating others, but sometimes, she just wanted to stay inside and study.
Today, she had decided to leave and help some people.
She walked to the front gate with her bodyguard and was quite surprised when she saw not a lot of people inside the sect.
"What's going on, Vego? Where are the people?
" she asked.
Her bodyguard responded,
"the disciples have all gone to the new sect location. It seems we will have a falling out soon.
"
"What? Falling out? Are we fighting amongst each other?
" Anya's voice went an octave or two higher when she heard that.
"No, Miss. Not amongst ourselves, but with the people that came a week ago,
" Vego said.
"A week ago?
" Anya asked in confusion.
"Don't you know? It was quite a topic around here. Did you lock yourself in your room again?
" Vego asked.
"Teehee,
" Anya gave an embarrassed smile.
"Sigh, yes. A week ago, people came for some reason, and the elders were a little scared. We might have a falling out with them if the diplomatic relations talk today doesn't go the way we want it to,
" Vego said.
"Oh,
" Anya said.
They soon reached the hospital building and Anya started treating the people while her brother helped her. They treated people for over 10 hours and only stopped when the sun went down.
"Good job everyone. Let's go back,
" Anya said and returned.
The brother left the group and went back to his staying area. Anya and Vego went back to the sect. Surprisingly, even though it was evening time, there were not that many disciples on the sect ground.
"Is the diplomatic talk still going on?
" Ning whispered quietly. Anya repeated the question so that Vego could hear it too.
"I think so miss. However, you shouldn't worry about it much. You can just go back to your room and focus on cultivation,
" Vego said.
"No, I am a disciple of this sect too. I want to see what is going on,
" Anya said and walked back out.
He made her way to the new sect ground despite Vego's constant insistence on them returning back. Anya arrived at the scene and saw quite a few people who wore red and blue. They were all gathered around something.
Anya forced her way in. People got angry when they felt someone pushing through, but when they saw who it was, they easily let her go forward.
When Anya arrived at the front, Ning saw two groups of people sitting on either side of a circle. They were all sitting in a lotus formation on the ground or rather floating just above the ground.
"What's going on?
" Anya asked to her side.
"Those people insist on bringing somebody from the sect to them and if we don't do it in the next 2 days, they will attack the sect.
"
"What?
" Anya said in surprise.
"The sect masters didn't say anything?
"
"They keep insisting that they won't and will rather fight them,
" the person said.
Ning couldn't help but sigh inside. The people who were making the demands were wearing orange robes that were very recognizable to anyone that went to the Triennial Tournaments.
"Ah, it's these guys,
" Ning said.
"Huh? Who are they?
" Anya asked.
"They are from the Dazzling sect. They're probably here after me,
" Ning said.
"Huh? Why?
" Anya asked.
"Hehe, I killed their sect leader,
" Ning said with a chuckle.
Ning looked around and said something to Anya. Anya hesitated for a bit after listening to what Ning had said, but decided to do it in the end.
She crossed the enclosure and walked inside the area. The elders and sect leaders frowned for a moment, but when they saw that it was Anya, their expression changed from frowning to worry.
"Anya, you shouldn't be here. Go back,
" Gion said.
"Anya, why are you here?
" Preso asked.
Yelca stood up and walked to Anya.
"Anya, it's not a place you should be in. Go back.
"
"It's okay Master, Sect Leaders,
" Anya said.
The group of people sitting on the opposite end didn't care for the commotion initially, but when they saw the elders' care, they got curious.
When they checked Anya, they understood the reason for their care.
"Oh my god! Such a young girl and already at Foundation Establishment realm,
" one of the elders said.
"That is the most talented individual I have ever seen,
" another elder said.
"No wonder they didn't let us search their sect. They were hiding someone like this,
" another person said.
Anya suddenly turned to them and pointed at the group of disciples behind the elders from the Dazzling sect.
She then spoke,
"You people were spared that day, and allowed to return home alive. If you don't accept, you will have to face that same fate your sect leader and his disciple did.
"
The people didn't understand what the little girl was trying to say, but when the 14 or so disciples heard Anya, they started getting scared.
It was then Anya said something that totally terrified them.
"If you guys won't leave now, then I will take you someplace away with me, just like Mallus and Gai.
"
