Chapter 741 - 767 Return of the Disciple of
Chapter 741: Chapter 767: Return of the Disciple of Wayless Sect Chapter 741: Chapter 767: Return of the Disciple of Wayless Sect The Sea of Nihility, outside Hidden Sky Island.
Li Cheng led the Emperor to this place, where they stood outside the Sea of Nihility and quietly awaited the opening of the Formation of Hidden Sky Island before entering, not daring to force their way through.
“This cave heaven ground is truly a splendid place, hardly inferior to the capital of my Great Tang Immortal Dynasty.”
The Emperor admired the Hidden Sky Island before him and felt that it was an excellent location.
“Indeed, how could the land of our Sect not be splendid? Let’s just wait for a while; I reckon First Senior Brother will soon be here.”
Li Cheng nodded and said proudly.
The Emperor smiled without saying anything more.
...
He too acknowledged the strength of Li Cheng’s Sect.
He acknowledged even more the potential the Sect held for the future.
But…
Admiration was one thing.
As the Emperor of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty, he absolutely could not show any signs of lowering his status on this account.
The Emperor looked at Li Cheng, wanting to say something more.
Suddenly, his gaze sharpened and turned towards the firmament.
“Who is the insolent one who dares to spy in my presence? Show yourself at once!”
The Emperor’s words, as golden as his authority.
His speech transformed into streams of dazzling light, sweeping up towards the firmament, aiming to shatter all obstructions.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The light struck the firmament, and billowing dust shrouded the sky.
This sudden turn of events left Li Cheng momentarily stunned.
He quickly regained his composure and looked towards the firmament.
He somewhat understood that someone had been spying on them and had been detected by the Emperor.
Li Cheng raised his head to see who had the audacity to spy on them.
What he saw in the firmament was a figure in a black robe, surrounded by rolling demonic qi. However, at that moment, the figure was panting profusely, evidently caught off guard by the Emperor’s strike.
“Junior Brother!”
Li Cheng couldn’t help but exclaim upon seeing the person.
Wasn’t that his Junior Brother Lin Mo?
He was just about to go greet Lin Mo.
Suddenly, the Emperor stopped him.
“Don’t rush; there are others nearby.”
The Emperor spoke.
No sooner had he finished speaking than several figures stepped out from the void.
It was unmistakably the Ninth Apprentice Si Yue, the Tenth Apprentice Zisu, the Eleventh Apprentice, Ai Qing, the Twelfth Apprentice Chi Jia, and Lin Mo from above the firmament—the Fourteenth Apprentice.
“Senior Brother, Senior Sister, Junior Brother.”
Li Cheng hurriedly greeted them.
The five apprentices present did not reply to Li Cheng but instead looked at the Emperor with unfriendly eyes.
Seeing this, Li Cheng understood that his fellow Sect members had misunderstood and quickly began to explain the situation.
After some thorough explanations, he made his fellow Sect members understand.
Seeing an opportune moment, the Emperor also stepped forward to apologize to Lin Mo, and he also gave some gifts as a gesture of goodwill, appeasing everyone.
Just as the tension had dissolved and everyone began to chat, Ye Luo finally arrived from outside Hidden Sky Island.
“Junior Brothers and Sisters, you’ve finally arrived. I was a bit busy, so I’ve come only now; I apologize for making you wait.”
Ye Luo descended onto the Sea of Nihility.
Clad in a blue robe.
Wielding an Immortal Sword.
His demeanor was still the same.
Only now, Ye Luo appeared even more spirited than before.
“First Senior Brother.”
Many fellow disciples turned to Ye Luo, all paying their respects.
“Hmm.”
Ye Luo’s gaze swept over each of his junior brothers and sisters, finally settling on Si Yue for a few seconds, then shifted to the Emperor.
“First Senior Brother, this is…”
Li Cheng was about to introduce the Emperor.
But the Emperor took the initiative to step forward, facing Ye Luo, and spoke.
“I am the ruler of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty.”
The Emperor introduced himself.
Ye Luo’s eyelids twitched slightly upon hearing this.
He wasn’t Chu Yuan; he had heard of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty before.
The Upper Realm has four major states, but the strongest powers number five.
These five powers form an alliance, checking one another while also maintaining the stability of the entire Upper Realm.
The Immortal Dynasty of Great Tang has, in recent years, vaguely become the presence of a sixth major power.
The Immortal Dynasty of Great Tang’s main forces are in other states, but its influence in the East Divine State is also not weak.
It was quite normal for Ye Luo to have heard of its reputation.
“I am the First Senior Brother of the Wayless Sect, currently the Acting Sect Master of the Wayless Sect, and I have seen the senior before.”
Ye Luo also bowed slightly.
The Emperor, being the ruler of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty and a pioneer on the cultivation path, deserved the respectful address of “senior” from him.
“Acting Sect Master of the Wayless Sect… Since you hold the position of Acting Sect Master, there’s no need to call me ‘senior’. Your status is sufficient for us to be on equal footing,” replied the Emperor after hearing how he was addressed.
He came to form an alliance with the Wayless Sect.
As the ruler of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty, he naturally corresponded with the Sect Master of the Wayless Sect.
An Acting Sect Master was considered to be of equal status to him.
Ye Luo had no strong opinion on this and simply nodded lightly.
The fellow disciples around him then curiously started asking questions.
“First Senior Brother, how did you become the Acting Sect Master?”
“What’s wrong with that, when the First Senior Brother becomes the Acting Sect Master? Isn’t that perfectly normal?”
“That’s true, the First Senior Brother has always been the successor of our sect. Even if he isn’t the Sect Master now, he definitely will be in the future. There doesn’t seem to be anything strange about that.”
“It’s ironic considering how the Second Disciple previously kept saying he was the sect’s heir. Look now, it’s the First Senior Brother who has truly become the successor.”
The fellow disciples all chattered among themselves.
“Alright, let’s not talk too much about this. I’ve become the Acting Sect Master only because our Respected Master is temporarily too busy to manage the sect, there’s nothing more to it,”
Ye Luo said with a laugh.
After finishing his words, he opened the formation of Hidden Heaven Island, allowing the many fellow disciples to enter, while also inviting the Emperor into the island with due courtesy.
The Emperor didn’t make a fuss and entered Hidden Heaven Island.
Inside Hidden Heaven Island, spiritual energy abounded. Precious herbs and mythical creatures were everywhere, which caused the Wayless Sect disciples to exclaim in surprise.
After their ascension to the Upper Realm, they had all joined Immortal Sects and had seen quite a bit of the world.
Yet Hidden Heaven Island still managed to astonish them.
The level of spiritual energy was beyond anything their own Immortal Sects had ever possessed.
“Let’s go, this is just the outer area. Our Misty Mountain is located at the very center, where the spiritual energy is even more abundant. Our Respected Master is also stationed there,”
Ye Luo, unsurprised by the reaction of his fellow disciples, chuckled and added another comment.
Upon hearing this, the fellow disciples didn’t hesitate at all and quickened their pace towards the central area.
For a moment, Ye Luo and the Emperor found themselves at the rear of the group.
The two men exchanged glances, each giving a slight nod, their eyes filled with respect.
Ye Luo respected the other’s status as the ruler of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty.
The Emperor respected Ye Luo’s talent; he was well aware of the name of Taiyi Sword Honor. Such a young man who was unbeatable in the Immortal Emperor Realm, the foremost among the Eastern Divine Continent’s Pride…
