Sword King
#7. Red Series (2)
Lindu looked at Nirmala at a glance. The teenage girl smiled and a dimple on her right cheek. The skin is smooth soft yellow color. The nose is sharp with the lips like acid. Real pretty.
Nirmala looked at Lindu with her starry eyes.
"Greetings to uda Lindu..."
"The same as Nirmala"
Lindu returned Nirmala's greeting while commenting on a light smile and looked back at Red Seriti.
"Let's get a young swordsman, let's sit down first. Don't you mind Gledek's Boxing ?" Red Seriti sat down next to Lindu. Limbubu the Gledek Fist just smiled widely and sat down. Nirmala also sat across from the Red Seriti.
"What's your next plan, Lindu ?" Red Seriti looked at Lindu.
"Tomorrow I left Koto Panjang to the coast of Pariaman."
"Is there anything you want to look for or go to in Pariaman ?"
"I want to pay a visit to the West Alang sect." Lindu did not explain more although Red Seriti and Gledek Boxing asked more.
Lindu didn't want to tell me what he was going to Pariaman for. Because it's a very personal matter. Lindu wanted to find traces of his family. The Shadowless God his teacher had explained who Lindu was a week before going down the mountain.

That afternoon a drizzling rain fell on the goddess Talago. The Shadowless God sat on the ledge of his house. Enjoy a glass of bitter coffee and boiled keladi. Although almost ten years had passed since he saved Lindu. The Shadowless God even looked younger. If it used to look middle-aged, now it looks like thirty. It happened because his cultivation level had broken through to the peak god level.
When a swordsman stages his cultivation holy. The warrior rose in rank to become a cultivator. They start not to be affected by age. They can live up to 1000 years. The higher his cultivation level was, the younger their condition was. They will survive with a 25-year-old human. Although they could only enter the cultivator level at the age of 80. That was why the warriors were racing to spur themselves to be able to enter the zhenqi cultivator level.
Lindu sat in front of his teacher.
The drizzle was still seen descending soaking in the press, as the Shadowless God spoke of Lindu's identity.
"Teacher's got a lead on your family's Lindu." The Shadowless God began to unlock Lindu's identity. Lindu was silent, listening to his teacher.
"If abak (the old man) and mendeh (the old woman) are scuttered and killed by Kalo Mantiko along with members of the Tambun Bones Demon sect, your grandfather is still there."
"Your grandfather was named Tuanku Nan Sati the Alang Bankeh. Great warriors who were also patriarchs of the great sect of West Alang.". Lindu looked at his teacher. His breathing became rather quick. A puddle of water appeared in his eyes. Lindu suddenly remembered with his ungku (grandfather). A man was a little old, charismatic who was very fond of him.
" When you go down the mountain. Go to the coastal city of Pariaman. Continue to Sunua, that is where the West Alang sect is located. Meet your grandfather there."
"The teacher knows, Alang Bangkeh never stops looking for you. She must be so happy to see you." The Shadowless God ended his explanation. Lindu clenched his hands firmly. He was bound to meet his grandfather as soon as he went down the mountain.

The Angso Duo sect is based on the island of Angso Duo off the coast of Pariaman. Angso Island duo surrounded by coral reefs as wide as three kilo meters. It is very difficult to visit the island of Angso Duo. No one can get close to the island of Angso Duo. There is only one route that can be passed to enter and exit the island of Angso Duo. Angso Duo's natural conditions had for hundreds of years protected the Angso Duo sect from the attacks of its enemy's enemies.
To reach the Angso Duo sect from Sunua beach it would take two days if the cuca in the sea was good. Usually members of the Angso Duo sect more often pass through the port of Pariaman.
The patriarch of the Angso Duo sect was named the Moon Goddess, a cultivator at the high sky level. The Moon Goddess was good friends with my Master Nan Sati, Lindu's grandfather.
The Western Alang sect and the Angso Duo sect had agreed to cooperate and help each other since their patriarchal days before the current patriarch. Every three years the Angso Duo sect and the West Alang sect always held friendly matches and closed with a week of joint training.
"Long..." Lindu gasped from the musings as the voice of Red Seriti called out her name.
"If you keep going and leaving town tomorrow. Maybe this beautiful city will be spoiled, when they come."
Limbubu the Boxing Gledek was shocked. The half-man looked at Lindu questioningly. Gledek's fist only felt the cultivation at the level of the early king of Lindu.
"The demise of the Demon Arit will not be allowed by the Bone Tambun Demon sect" Red Seriti added. He looked at Lindu with a small smile on his lips. Gledek's boxing was even more shocked to hear the talk of Red Seriti.
"Have you killed Arit Satan with three members of the Bone Demon Sect, two days ago ?" Gledek's fist asked half in disbelief.
"Did this brat suppress his cultivation level ? I have to have a good relationship with this boy" he whispered inwardly.
Lindu nodded his head to answer Gledek's Boxing question.
"Well, I'll postpone my trip for two more days.". Lindu agreed with Red Seriti. Lindu would be burdened with guilt if a member of the Bone Tambun Demon sect made trouble when he left.
"Red Seriti and Nirmala where are you going after this town ?" Lindu asked the purpose of Red Seriti and Nirmala.
"We will wait for uda Lindu to face the Bone Tambun Demon sect. After that we will head to the West Alang sect in Sunua". Nirmala gave the answer to Lindu.
" What's in the West Alang sect ?" sindu's heart throbbed when he heard the name of the West Alang sect. He also wanted to go to the West Alang sect, even though he only said he wanted to go to the coastal city of Pariaman. Seriti Merah caught a glimpse of the change on Lindu's face.
"A little more than a full moon from now on, there is a joint activity of the Angso Duo sect with the West Alang sect." Red Seriti explained to Lindu. He then added, "Nirmala will participate in a match between talented students."
Lindu looked towards Nirmala, and Nirmala nodded her head justifying. A ten-eleven-year-old girl with a gold-level cultivation, must be a genius, Lindu thought.
"Can I watch the show ?". Lindu thought it would be easier to get to his destination if he could go with Seriti Merah and Nirmala. For sure he did not need to ask directions to the West Alang sect. Moreover, he would be able to obtain a lot of information about the West Alang sect and of course information about his grandfather Master Nan Sati.
" May Iuda Lindu. It's even good to have a traveling companion, correct the teacher ?". Nirmala looked at her teacher Seriti Merah with a hopeful face. Red Seriti smiled in agreement with her student.
"Oh yeah, where are you guys ?" Lindu asked back.
"Air Badarun" replied Nirmala.
"It's late afternoon, I'll be back first. I happened to be there too" said Lindu.
"Well, that's it. Come teacher..." Nirmala invited her teacher back.
"Wait... This is for you Lindu" Limbubu gave a token of gold to Lindu.
"Show these tokens in every Ivory Tower store, they will serve well. In addition, you will get a 20% discount on each of your purchases."
Red Seriti smiled a little at that. He knew, Boxing Gledek again tried to lick Lindu a little, to be able to build a long-term relationship of course.
Lindu received the gold token and thanked him. After that store the gold token in his universe ring.
A moment later, Lindu, Seriti Merah and Nirmala left the Ivory Tower, heading for the inn.
The breeze blew that afternoon, feeling very cold. They walked over casually while chatting lightly.
