Two days later, it was time for the meeting of the helm masters.
This time, the meeting was at the helm master level, so only those at the helm master level could attend.
Although Gao Kuang was only a Hall Master, he had been appointed by Li Nan as the Deputy Helm Master, so he was barely qualified to attend this meeting.
Early in the morning, accompanied by Gao Kuang, Li Nan was able to fly directly to Bei’e.
The last time Li Nan had come here was almost four years ago for the first auction of the Pill King Hall.
In the blink of an eye, four years had passed, and time had indeed gone by like a flash.
The venue for the reception was set in a huge manor in the heart of Cosmo.
Unlike the domestic ban on the Tower of Heaven project, the Northern Era has been very enthusiastic about the Tower of Heaven project from the very beginning.
So, nowadays, Bei’e has become one of the most prosperous places for martial arts development in the secular world!
In particular, Cosmo City has become a real super metropolis where martial artists gather, and its scale is even dozens of times larger than that of Guanghai!
And because of this, the property prices here have also gone up.
Nowadays, the location in the centre of the city can be described as an inch of gold, and the amount of money required to own such a huge manor in such a place is absolutely astronomical!
But this manor didn’t cost a penny when it was taken down, because it was specially prepared by Bei’e for the Divine Martial Sword Sect, and has now become the headquarters of the Divine Martial Sword Sect in the secular world!
Li Nan and Gao Kuang both landed in front of the manor.
Li Nan was also shocked by the sight in the manor before him.
This was originally part of the European Domain, a foreign country, but the manor in front of him had an extremely distinctive Yanxia style, which made Li Nan feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
At this moment, there were many luxury cars parked in front of the entire manor.
It had to be said that these powerful people from the True Martial World had lived a very prosperous life after coming to the secular world.
Because they could be considered absolute super powerhouses in the secular world, no matter where they went, there was no shortage of admirers, and money could not be simpler for them if they wanted to amass wealth in the secular world.
When they arrived at the entrance of the manor, several disciples of the Divine Martial Sword Sect were guarding the place.
“Greetings, two, please show your invitations.”
A disciple said quite politely.
Gao Kuang didn’t think much of it, so he directly handed his invitation to the other party.
Only, after that disciple had read the invitation, a puzzlingly playful smile appeared on his face.
“You’re the helmsman of the Guanghai Branch?”
The disciple looked at Li Nan at the side, as if to finally confirm.
“That’s right, what’s the problem?”
Li Nan asked with some uncertainty.
At this moment, not only that disciple from earlier, but also the few disciples at the side, all had a playful smile on their faces, causing Li Nan to be a bit enigmatic as well.
“What the f*ck are you guys laughing at, what’s so funny!”
Gao Kuang bellowed irritably.
At this point, the disciple from before then gave the invitation back to Li Nan again and said with a smile, “Oh, it’s nothing, just a casual question. Then, I wish you two a good time, haha ……”
Although this disciple’s face still had a smile on it, but for some reason, it gave people an impression of gloating.
When Gao Kuang saw the other party’s appearance, he was even more furious.
A mere gatekeeper had dared to be so rude to them, which made Gao Kuang very uncomfortable.
Just when Gao Kuang was just about to have a fit, he was stopped by Li Nan.
“Forget it, let’s go in.”
Li Nan said casually.
For these small characters in front of him, Li Nan was too lazy to pay attention to them.
After saying that, Li Nan walked straight into the manor.
Gao Kuang gave an indignant glance at the few gatekeeper disciples in front of him, and after taking the invitation as soon as he could, he also followed this Li Nan into the manor.
After Li Nan and the others left, those disciples no longer had to hide anything, and all of them had a gloating expression on their faces.
“Humph, how dare you be arrogant when you come to our headquarters.”
“Hahahaha, it seems these two don’t know what awaits them!”
“Now, it really is a good show!”
These few disciples all looked extremely excited one after another.
“Brother Jian, what should we do now?”
A disciple asked towards the one who had just checked the invitations, clearly the other was the leader among the several disciples.
The disciple who was called Brother Jian had a cold smile on the corner of his mouth.
“Needless to say, of course we have to pass on the news to Senior Brother Cheng and the others, otherwise, where would we get to watch the fun!”
Brother Jian said with a smirk on his face.
“Hehehehe, I understand, I’ll tell Senior Brother Cheng and the others about this kid’s arrival right now!”
With that said, the disciple ran straight into the manor.
Jian looked at Li Nan’s back in the manor and gave a cold snort, looking as if he was waiting to see the other party make a fool of himself.
In the manor, Li Nan was naturally unaware of Jian’s conversation with them.
At this moment, when Li Nan arrived at the manor, he saw that quite a few people had already come to the manor at this moment.
Today, although it was a meeting of the Divine Martial Sword Sect’s helmsmen, there was a reception before the meeting started, which was to allow everyone to better communicate and enhance their relationship.
And at this reception, apart from those at the helm level, there were quite a few celebrities from Bei’e and even other places who also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make more friends with the big names in the Divine Martial Sword Sect.
After all, as the number one clan in True Martial Arts, the Divine Martial Sword Sect is still extremely prestigious in the secular world today, and even many important commanders of countries have close ties with the Divine Martial Sword Sect.
At this moment, all these guests were talking and laughing.
Only, what was a little surprising to Li Nan was that from these people’s conversations, what he heard the most was the discussion about that acting Dragon King of Yanxia!
In fact, it was no wonder, after all, recently, there were simply too many rumours about this Acting Dragon King.
From the previous case where he had overpowered Old Seal Sakura with his own strength, to the rescue of 3,000 hostages a few days ago, every single thing could be called a legend, and naturally, it had become the most common topic to bring these people, who were not too familiar with each other, closer together.
Li Nan was secretly pleased with the discussion about himself and listened with great interest.
Gao Kuang even brought a glass of red wine over for Li Nan, just when the two of them were chatting.
“Whoosh!”
A sound of breaking air rang out.
Li Nan suddenly felt that something was coming towards the back of his head at an extremely fast speed.
“Be careful!”
Li Nan pushed Gao Kuang beside him out of the way and at the same time, he grabbed the object coming from behind him in his hands with precision.
It was only an orange that had not been peeled yet!
It was only an orange! But Li Nan knew very well that with the speed at which it had just attacked, the destructive power it brought was not to be underestimated.
If it hit an ordinary person’s head, it would definitely injure him or her!
So it was obvious that the visitor was not good!
Only then did Gao Kuang react from the panic he had just felt.
“Who! Who the hell is throwing things around!”
Gao Kuang was so angry that he shouted at the surrounding crowd.
At this moment, many people were also looking towards this side.
In fact, when that orange flew in just now, it had already caught the attention of many people. After all, those who came here today were all people with cultivation, so it was not difficult to perceive this.
Just at this moment, a voice however suddenly rang out in the crowd.
“Old me threw the stuff, what’s the problem?”
As soon as the words fell, a tall figure walked straight out from the crowd.
And behind him, five or six figures followed.
“Senior Brother Cheng?!”
Seeing the person at the head of the group, Gao Kuang immediately frowned, a very obvious look of scorn appearing on his face.
Hearing this, Li Nan at the side could not help but raise an eyebrow.
“Who is he?”
Li Nan asked casually.
“In reply to the helmsman, his name is Cheng Guangyuan, he is a true disciple of our Divine Martial Sword Sect, as well as the chief helmsman of this Cosmo Branch, he is very powerful nowadays!”
Gao Kuang explained in a soft voice.
Afterwards, Gao Kuang seemed to think of something else and said, “Moreover, I also heard that ……”
Gao Kuang was a bit desperate to say something.
“Heard what?”
Li Nan asked.
“I heard that this senior brother, Cheng Guangyuan, has a very close relationship with Guan Pingliang, the previous helmsman of our Guanghai Branch, and I think he might ……”
Gao Kuang stopped going on in the middle of his sentence.
However, Li Nan was not stupid, so he naturally understood what Gao Kuang meant.
It was obvious that these people in front of him were most likely avenging that Guan Pingliang!
“So that’s how it is!”
A cold smile spread across the corners of Li Nan’s mouth.
And at this moment, with the arrival of Cheng Guangyuan and the others, a sound of surprise was heard from the crowd present.
Because Cheng Guangyuan was the chief helmsman of this Cosmo branch, not only in Cosmo, but even in the whole of Bei’e, his influence was great, so there was almost no guest who came here today who did not know him.
Many of them even bowed towards Cheng Guangyuan, looking extremely respectful.
Cheng Guangyuan’s face, on the other hand, had an arrogant look on it. The power of this secular world had, in fact, cultivated in him a lot of the aura of a superior person.
Not only Cheng Guangyuan, but also the few people behind him were all true disciples of the Divine Martial Sword Sect, and now in the secular world, they were also the helmsmen of extremely important branch helms, and their power was also not to be underestimated!
At this moment, under everyone’s attention, Cheng Guangyuan led those few true disciples straight to Li Nan’s front.
“You’re that Wang Yao from the Guanghai Branch?”
Cheng Guangyuan looked at Li Nan with disdain written in his eyes.
