Jiang Fei seemed to be very excited after seeing Lin Fan. “Master Lin, this time, we’ve really troubled you, to make you travel to Kunlun Mountain.”

“You’re not going?” asked Lin Fan in surprise.

“I am,” said Jiang Fei, “Although this trip doesn’t have much to do with us, as part of Chinese martial arts, we have to bring a team over to support it. After all, this is this is a grand exchange between martial art schools.”

“Who organized this event? Why did they think of organizing it at Kunlun Mountain? It’s so far and so inconvenient.” Lin Fan shook his head helplessly.

Jiang Fei was helpless about this as well. “We complained about this location as well but their reply left us speechless. They said something like ‘If you can’t even endure some hardship, why are you even practicing kung fu? We didn’t say much after that.”

“As for the organizer, it’s a Chinese martial arts exchange center. That organization is really big. They basically encompass the martial arts practitioners from around the world. Moreover, they’ve been around for a long time. They were established in 1925.”

Lin Fan nodded and didn’t ask more about this. He decided to just go there and see. As for the organizers, he didn’t bother much about them.

“Let’s go. I’ll go and see President Niu. I haven’t seen him in a long time,” said Lin Fan with a smile as the two of them headed inside.

He hadn’t come here in a long time and he even missed this place a little.

After all, he had very deep memories of this place from back then.

“Huh?”

At that moment, Lin Fan stopped in his tracks and looked at that figure in front. Meanwhile, that person saw Lin Fan and suddenly jolted slightly as if he had seen someone familiar.

Wang Yun Jie was standing there, looking at the young man in front of him. His memories of past incidents started popping up in his mind.

A group of them had been forced into a conflict in the office by this young man. They were all experts in the association but they had taken a beating from this one man. To them, it had been a huge blow to their confidence.

Initially, he hadn’t wanted to give in but in the end, he had completely crumbled and even left the association. He had really been filled with rage at first but after calming down, his heart finally relaxed and he seemed to have understood something.

Jiang Fei saw Wang Yun Jie and shouted, “Chairman Wang...”

Lin Fan looked at him and let out a smile. “Hello, Chairman Wang, it’s been so long. You still have the same style. What is it? Don’t you recognize me?”

Over the phone, President Niu had already explained the situation clearly. Lin Fan couldn’t possibly act unfriendly towards Wang Yun Jie. Since the matter had already passed, he decided to interact nicely.

As the saying goes, you don’t know each other until you’ve fought. After fighting, all grievances will be settled.

Wang Yun Jie stood there for a moment before walking over and extending his hand. His expression was sincere. “Hello, President Lin. What happened in the past was my mistake. I’ve deeply reflected on it and I hope you won’t hold it against me.”

Lin Fan extended his arm and shook Wang Yun Jie’s hand.

“It’s fine. It’s already in the past. I was a little too rash as well and I didn’t give you face in the association. Please don’t hold it against me either.”

“You did the right thing. If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have realized my mistake. When I was young, I wasn’t like that. But when I grew old, my attitude changed. Now, I’ve been beaten awake by President Lin. I’m glad it happened,” said Wang Yun Jie. Then, thinking about the Kunlun Mountain trip, he said, “This time, we’ll have to trouble President Lin to lead the team.”

Lin Fan smiled. “It’s no trouble at all. Alright, let’s not stand here anymore. Let’s go and pay President Niu a visit.”

“Alright,” replied Wang Yun Jie with a smile. He had really given in to President Lin, especially since he saw news related to President Lin every day.

He suddenly realized that the President Lin he had known from before had already ascended to a higher place.

Jiang Fei smiled after seeing the two of them. The association could only flourish if the internal department was peaceful. This was something that he was very happy to see.

The office.

President Niu saw that Master Lin had come and instantly broke into a smile. “Come, come. It’s not often that President Lin comes to the association. This old man has to appreciate this opportunity.”

Hearing that, Lin Fan felt helpless. “President Niu, I’m really sorry. I carry the title of Vice-President but I don’t come here much at all. I’m really embarrassed to be holding this title. Why don’t I just become a normal member instead?”

“No, don’t ever do that. You may not be here but your reputation is with us. Now, our association is rising. When other people hear that Master Lin is the Vice-President, they trust us very much. President Lin has already contributed to the association tremendously,” said President Niu.

This was something that Lin Fan had not thought of. He hadn’t expected that his reputation could have such an effect on the association. If he hadn’t experienced it himself, he wouldn’t have believed it.

Lin Fan smiled. “President Niu, what will we be mainly doing during this Kunlun Mountain trip? Are we just going there to spectate?”

President Niu nodded. “Yes. We are the Shanghai department of the association and we’ve received the invitation. We won’t be respected very much over there. I want you to lead the team and bring the association’s new members over there to see the larger aspects of society and broaden their horizons.”

“Oh, so that’s it.” Lin Fan nodded as he understood. They were probably going there just for show.

President Niu continued, “Actually, our association is in a rather embarrassing situation. Some of the martial arts schools look down on us. But since we are a nationally recognized organization, they can’t get rid of us whenever they want to organize any activities.”

“This time, out of the several big organizers, there are the Big Three families and Big Four clans at the center. There are also various private groups. It is considered a grand ceremony. Moreover, it is a global event. It’s a true martial arts exchange meet,” said President Niu.

Lin Fan wasn’t very interested in those Big Three families and Big Four clans or whatever. However, since they were playing a small role, it meant that it wasn’t a big deal.

To him, this was actually pretty good. He could save some trouble.

He could treat this trip as a vacation.

President Niu continued, “This time, Jiang Fei and President Wang will be bringing some of the new members over. President Lin will be the leader, so please look after them. Over there, there will be many young and vigorous people. If a conflict happens, your kung fu is the strongest and you should be able to protect them. I can relax because of that.”

At that moment, Lin Fan smiled. “President Niu, did you decide to send me just because I can fight?”

President Niu’s expression changed. “Of course not. President Lin, don’t think of this old man that way. If I could go, I would.”

“Hahaha...”

Lin Fan burst into laughter. “Alright, alright. Since President Niu has spoken, how can I reject? Then we’ll meet at the airport tomorrow. I’ll be bringing a few other people from my side. They’re my employees and I’m bringing them to see the world as well.”

“Alright.”
