In the end, the Sword-fighting Assembly on the surface had ended, and the judges invited by the two great families had all left. However, Qin Fang still chose to stay.
After rejecting the kind invitations of Elder Mu, Fang Zonglin and the others, Qin Fang did not leave with them.
However, Qin Fang had also accepted Fang Zonglin's invitation, indicating that when he was relatively free, he would definitely make a trip to the small island and the Southern Sky Sect to experience the different aura of this sect.
With regards to Qin Fang staying behind, the Cui and Fu families still maintained a rather courteous attitude. Steward Fu even personally entertained Qin Fang, treating him as a first-class guest.
Although he knew that Cui Haoyu and Fu Qinglin would not give him such a huge advantage for nothing, Qin Fang still decided to stay. At the very least, this Sword-fighting Assembly was still somewhat attractive to him.
Qin Fang did not expect himself to be able to break the Sword-fighting Goblet left behind by the Sword-fighting Master, Fu Cailin. He only wanted to be able to obtain some benefits from it.
The current him was already at the peak of the Master Stage, but if he wanted to step into the Grandmaster Stage, there was an incomparably huge gap.
If he wanted to fill in this gap, other than the tempering of time, he would also need a great opportunity … This Sword-fighting Goblet was undoubtedly such an opportunity.
Such a huge advantage, even the two great families had to fight to the death for a spot, but now, it was given to Qin Fang for nothing. If one were to say that there was nothing fishy about this, Qin Fang would not believe it even if he was beaten to death. As for Cui Haoyu's bullsh * t reason, Qin Fang did not take it seriously at all.
With that kind of reason, it might be possible to use it to deceive a child, but with Qin Fang, only a ghost would believe Cui Haoyu's excuse.
If it wasn't for the fact that the mind-reading technique couldn't work on Cui Haoyu, Qin Fang would have dug out all the nonsense in his heart.
Qin Fang knew that there was definitely a problem here. He even suspected that Cui Haoyu and Fu Qinglin had specially designed this trap for him.
Others might not be able to find out anything about the deaths of Ishihara Ichiro and Cui Zhi Min, but if the two families were to work together, they would definitely be able to guess something.
But no matter what, this Sword-fighting Goblet was a rare opportunity. If he could obtain something from it, it would be extremely beneficial for Qin Fang's breakthrough to the Great Master Stage
As for the danger, although Qin Fang would be cautious, he would not be too cautious … unless Cui Haoyu and Fu Qinglin, two masters of the Great Grandmaster level, joined hands to encircle and suppress him, which might put his life in danger.
Otherwise, Qin Fang Qin Fang was confident that there was no problem with his ability to protect himself.
Even Qin Fang Qin Fang was sure that if the two Great Master level experts really wanted to harm him, Qin Fang Qin Fang would be in danger, but the two would definitely not gain any benefits.
Anyway, since Qin Fang Qin Fang had already stayed, he naturally had to concentrate on making some preparations for the upcoming Sword-fighting Goblet.
Sharpening a knife does not delay the work of cutting firewood. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qin Fang Qin Fang sorted out the things in his prop box and prepared some necessary equipment in advance. This saved him the trouble of looking for it when he needed it. That would be too much of a delay.
"Young Hero Qin, please …"
After Cui Haoyu and Fu Qinglin sent the invited judges away from Mt. Bagong, they returned together and entered the next process. They specially sent Director Fu to invite Qin Fang.
The two Great Masters naturally had to care about their own faces. The two of them jointly sent an invitation to Qin Fang, which was already very respectful. It was impossible for them to personally come to invite Qin Fang.
"Director Fu, is the Sword Forest also in this mountain?"
Director Fu led the way in front and led Qin Fang Qin Fang to the depths of Mt. Bagong. It was quiet all the way, and there was not even half a shadow. This made Qin Fang feel a little panicked. He felt that the old man was not leading him to the Sword-fighting Goblet, but to the depths of the mountain, and then …
It was precisely because of this that Qin Fang could not help but ask. After all, when he fought with Ishihara Ichiro and chased after Cui Zhimin, he also ran to a lot of places in the mountain, but it seemed that he did not find anything special.
This might also be because Cui Zhimin knew the location of the Sword Forest and was afraid that the secret would be exposed, so he deliberately led Qin Fang away … But Qin Fang always felt that there was something wrong.
"That's right … It is indeed in the mountain!"
Steward Fu seemed to have seen through Qin Fang's doubts, and lightly nodded his head, "The location of the Sword Forest is very hidden, and other than a few people, even the people of our two great families do not know where it is …" Just like this time's Sword-fighting Assembly, many people thought that it had already ended, but in reality, only a few elders of the two great families, as well as a few disciples who won the competition, would go to the Sword Forest. That's why there aren't many people on the road! "
"I see …"
After listening to Director Fu's explanation, although Qin Fang could not tell whether it was true or false, at least it made sense.
A place like the Sword Forest was a secret place of the two great clans. It should be known to as few people as possible. Otherwise, it would be difficult to guarantee its mystery.
This was the same as the secret place of the Liu Clan. Other than the Patriarch, even the elders of the clan did not know where it existed …
Once the secret place was exposed, many experts would definitely rush in. Although this Sword-fighting Go game had restrictions set up to limit the number of people who could enter, it was hard to guarantee that some experts who could not enter would deliberately destroy it.
If some destructive restriction was triggered and this secret place was completely destroyed, the people of the Cui and Fu Clans would not even be able to cry.
Although Director Fu's explanation made sense, Qin Fang still maintained a considerable amount of vigilance. There was a deep sense of conspiracy in this matter.
The mountain was rather quiet. After all, this was the Fu Clan's territory. Other than the Fu Clan, very few people came here …
And now, on the Fu Clan's side, those who knew about the Sword-fighting Go game had already gone to the Sword Forest, while those who did not know were celebrating the Fu Clan's victory.
Of course, Qin Fang and his companions' journey was empty, and no one disturbed them.
"Young Hero Qin, forgive this old man for being presumptuous, but the Sword Forest is a forbidden area of the Fu Clan. The way to enter is very secretive, so …"
When they reached a dense forest, Director Fu suddenly stopped. He then took out a black eye mask from his body and said politely, "Thank you, Miss. Thank you for your help.
"No problem …"
Qin Fang scanned his surroundings but couldn't find anything out of the ordinary. However, there wasn't a single person around and there wasn't even the slightest bit of sound. He thought that there must be something special about the location of the Sword Forest.
However, since Director Fu had said so, Qin Fang did not refuse. He took the eye mask and put it on his eyes. Immediately, the surroundings turned dark.
Then, Director Fu took out a rope-like object and stuffed it into Qin Fang's hand. "Young Hero Qin, hold on to this rope. I will walk in front. You can just follow me …"
Qin Fang naturally agreed. Just like that, Qin Fang became a "half-blind" who could not see and needed someone to hold on to him when he walked.
Of course, Qin Fang dared to do this because he had something to rely on.
Although he could not see anything with his eyes, his minimap function still existed. If someone appeared around him, or if Director Fu wanted to harm him, Qin Fang would be able to detect it immediately.
Therefore, he was not afraid of Director Fu playing tricks at all. Naturally, he did not reject his request …
When everything was ready, Director Fu immediately set off. Qin Fang held on to the rope and followed behind Director Fu as they walked forward slowly.
Director Fu's walking speed was not very fast, but it was not slow either. He would change direction every few meters and repeat this over and over again …
Qin Fang's sense of direction was quite good, but he couldn't see anything with his eyes. Therefore, he kept changing the direction back and forth, which soon made him dizzy.
Fortunately, Qin Fang's minimap had its own directional indicator. No matter how Director Fu changed direction, Qin Fang could always grasp the direction he was heading.
Time passed by minute by minute. Director Fu had already led Qin Fang for more than 20 minutes in this forest. If it was someone else, they would have already lost their patience. However, Qin Fang was still very calm.
Qin Fang had been paying attention to the movements around him. He was also constantly using his detection skill. Although he could not see, everything around him was still under his control.
He even memorized the position of every tree and every rock in his heart. At the same time, he was also drawing a map in his mind according to the direction that Director Fu was walking in.
Although the map was not accurate to every point, Qin Fang could roughly estimate that the final error should not be more than one meter. It was already considered quite accurate.
Buzz ~ ~
Almost as Qin Fang was silently drawing the map in his mind, a huge change suddenly occurred on the minimap. On the initially empty minimap, more than 10 red dots suddenly appeared, indicating that more than 10 people had suddenly appeared around him …
"Young Hero Qin, we are here … You can take off your blindfold now!"
Qin Fang had just raised his guard when he heard Director Fu's voice. Obviously, he had arrived at his destination … the Sword Forest.
"This is the Sword Forest?"
When Qin Fang took off his blindfold and regained some of his vision, he looked at his surroundings. There was deep surprise in his eyes and he asked in disbelief. He was obviously shocked by the scene in front of him …
