"That's true! However, I didn't see him bringing any disciples with him that time..." Gotzel voiced his doubts.

"My master thought that we were bad at martial arts, so he did not allow us to reveal ourselves in public so that we wouldn't embarrass him," Fade explained.

"What..." Gotzel was in a daze; he was unable to fully comprehend what was happening.

The crowd, who had fallen into silence for almost a minute, suddenly burst into an uproar.

"Master Hsuanyuen! He's that legendary man whom we've all heard of!"

"Is Fade really his disciple?"

"Wait, I just realized something. Before Fade entered the secret realm, he went into a small cabin behind the mountains, didn't he? That explains why he could crack the puzzle. It's his master's cabin!" "But that doesn't really prove anything..."

"Master Hsuanyuen hasn't shown up for many years and I've never heard of him taking on any disciples. It's a shock that someone is claiming to be his disciple now!"

Gotzel turned to Kinsley in confusion and pondered on his words. His eyes flickered as he wondered if he was telling the truth.

Others turned to look at him puzzledly as well.

He gazed at Gotzel and asked, "Master Tuan, do you think I would lie about something like this?"

"Or do you think that I would use Master Hsuanyuen's story to deceive you?"

Gotzel's expression fell upon hearing his words.

He analyzed the situation logically.

Indeed, Kinsley wouldn't lie about something like this. The disadvantages of lying far outweighed the advantages.

Therefore, his words were likely to be true.

Moreover, this would explain why Kinsley was so protective over Fade.

The reason was very simple. It was precisely because of Master Hsuanyuen.

At the thought of this, the look in Gotzel's eyes became complicated.

It was not the right moment to attack Fade then. After all, he was Aldred's disciple. If he was to take action against him, not even the four biggest clans could endure his wrath, let alone the Tianwu Clan itself. Still, he was unwilling to let the matter go.

After all, he would lose his pride if he just halted his actions completely.

Furthermore, Fade had indeed harmed his own disciples. He had to pay for the consequences of his actions. Otherwise, the Tianwu Clan wouldn't be able to uphold their prestige.

As he thought of this, he lifted his head and stated, "I believe Master Zou."

He then paused.

"However, even if he is Master Hsuanyuen's disciple, he still has to bear the responsibility for his mistakes." "I believe that Master Hsuanyuen will agree with me as well."

As soon as he finished his words, Kinsley couldn't help but frown and his expression grew grim.

He reminded Gotzel, "Master Tuan, do not be rash."

Gotzel snorted coldly. He looked at Kinsley and asked, "Master Zou, what do you mean? Are you implying that I am wrong? Or do you think that Master Hsuanyuen is someone who will protect those who are in the wrong?"

Kinsley ignored his accusations.

He hurriedly answered, "That is not what I meant."

"I just wanted to remind you to think wisely and act carefully before the truth unfolds."

"I am being cautious," Gotzel huffed. "However, even if Fade is Master Hsuanyuen's disciple, he should still take the responsibility for killing Monash."

With that, he glanced at Fade and questioned loudly, "Fade, I will put that matter aside for now. However, how do you explain yourself for hurting Wagner, Algot, and Baxter?"

Fade frowned slightly and replied,

"I've already fold you. They were trying to assassinate me. Under such circumstances, it was only natural for me to defend myself" "Are you still trying to find excuses for yourself?" Gotzel's expression turned serious.

"You can't just do whatever you want, regardless if you're Master Hsuanyuen's disciple or not," Gotzel continued.

"What exactly do you want?" Fade stared at him and scowled.

Gotzel answered in a low voice, "My request is very simple. You should take responsibility for hurting the disciples of the Tianwu Clan." "What do you want me to do?" Fade pressed on, with his tone lowering. Gotzel's eyes flashed as he stated, "I want you to stop using the secret technique of the Tianwu Clan from now on."

"On top of that, you have to join the Tianwu Clan for three months to repent for your mistakes."

When he heard Gotzel's request, Fade's expression changed.

It didn't really matter to him that he couldn't use the secret technique of the Tianwu Član anymore. After all his own secret technique was much more powerful than that of the Tianyu Clan. It wouldn't really matter to him.

However, he was dissatisfied with the latter request.

"How am I going to repent for it?" Fade snorted and slid Gotzel a sideways glance.

"According to the rules of the Tianwu Clan, you have to enter the meditation hall," Gotzel replied.

"If you stay in the meditation hall for three months, it is considered that you have repented for your mistakes."

After Gotzel finished speaking, many people, including Fade, were a little surprised.

After all, in their opinion, his punishment seemed to be a little too light.

It wasn't difficult for a martial artist to stay inside a room for three months. After all, it took them almost half a month to meditate once they reached this level. Three months wasn't a big deal.

After thinking about it for a while, everyone seemed to have reached a consensus.

Fade was Aldred's disciple. He had a special status.

Although Gotzel wanted to punish him, he had to show his respect for Aldred. Therefore, he had suggested this method which could kill two birds with one stone. This would keep his pride and it would not cause dissatisfaction from Aldred.

Many started discussing amongst themselves; most of them agreed with Gotzel.

Even Fade himself wondered if Gotzel really thought so.

However, Kinsley's expression fell and he exclaimed, "Master Tuan, you are crossing the

line!"

Gotzel's face darkened and he glared at Kinsley warningly. "Master Zou, you'd better not interfere with the affairs of the Tianwu Clan."
