“Where is the Pavilion Master?”
“Where are the others?”
Elder Li Yinglian asked gravely, “Could it be that they don’t know I’ve erged from seclusion? Why haven’t they co to greet yet?”
Upon hearing this, the few elders shivered and avoided eye contact, not daring to speak.
“Hm?”
Li Yinglian sensed sothing was off and imdiately frowned.
A wave of pressure emanated from him as he waved his hand, grabbing one of the elders.
“Tell , what exactly is going on?”
“Please calm down, Ancestor! The sect leader and the other elites have already left the sect.” The elder responded in panic.
“Left? Why would so many people leave the sect all at once?”
“Has there been a sect war?”
Li Yinglian demanded.
“No, not that.”
The elder knelt on the ground, his eyes darting around as he said, “They… they went to seek a master!”
“Seek a master?”
Li Yinglian frowned and barked, “What master?”
“Reporting to the Ancestor, it’s because another Eighth-Grade Array Master has appeared within the Heavenly Array Immortal Continent. This Array Master’s ergence has shaken the entire continent. Not only the sect leader, but all the major powers and young talents across the continent have rushed over.”
The few elders stamred.
“Hmph, nonsense!”
Upon hearing this, Li Yinglian’s hand slamd down, reducing the nearby table to dust.
“Isn’t an Eighth-Grade Array Master just an Eighth-Grade Array Master? Am I not an Eighth-Grade Array Master myself?”
“Have I not taught you all enough?”
“The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Array Pavilion, leading a large group to seek a master elsewhere—what kind of behavior is that!”
Li Yinglian’s anger flared.
Below him, the many elders all knelt down, not daring to breathe heavily.
“Send an order.”
“Have the people of the Heavenly Array Pavilion return imdiately.”
“Also, spread the news of my ergence from seclusion!”
Li Yinglian commanded.
“Yes!”
The elders dared not argue and quickly carried out the order.
Not long after.
The news of Li Yinglian, also an Eighth-Grade Array Master, erging from seclusion spread across the entire Heavenly Array Immortal Continent, sparking much discussion.
After all, the simultaneous ergence of two Eighth-Grade Array Masters was a rare occurrence even in the history of the Heavenly Array Immortal Continent.
Over the next few days.
Not only did Li Yinglian summon back the mbers of the Heavenly Array Pavilion, but he also changed out of his dusty appearance from erging from seclusion, donning the black robe unique to Array Masters.
On his chest was the distinctive badge representing an Eighth-Grade Array Master.
anwhile, the Dao Enlightennt Hall was cleaned spotless by the servants.
Afterward, every day Li Yinglian would lecture in the Dao Enlightennt Hall.
He knew well that to ensure the Heavenly Array Pavilion remained unshakable in the Heavenly Array Immortal Continent, unity among its mbers was crucial.
And having an Eighth-Grade Array Master like himself personally teaching would undoubtedly attract countless young talents from the continent.
However, he was mistaken.
He lectured in the Dao Enlightennt Hall for half a month.
Yet, the number of people who ca to listen was pitifully small. Occasionally, a few stragglers would appear, individuals so obscure that no one had even heard of them.
“Hmph!”
Li Yinglian was furious.
“Where are the people?”
“The Heavenly Array Immortal Continent is vast, with countless prodigies. Why, when I erge from seclusion, do so few co?”
As he spoke, his sharp gaze fell upon those below him.
“Do you know the importance of this for the future of the Heavenly Array Pavilion? Have you been negligent and not spread the news properly?”
“We dare not, Ancestor!”
Those below all knelt down, panicked.
“Then why is no one coming?” Li Yinglian demanded.
Sect Leader Yun Guang, unable to hold back, explained timidly, “Reporting to the Ancestor, although the news of your ergence has been spread, right now everyone in the Heavenly Array Immortal Continent is gathered in Tianlun City. So might not have received the news, and others are likely still pondering how to approach that other Eighth-Grade Array Master!”
“So it can only be said that the timing of your ergence is… not ideal.”
“Not ideal?”
“Hmph!”
“I have road the Heavenly Array Immortal Continent for ten thousand years. I entered the ranks at ten, reached the Fourth Grade by a hundred, and a thousand years ago I was already an Eighth-Grade Array Master. Do you think I can’t match a re upstart?”
Li Yinglian stood up, his voice thundering, “I refuse to believe that with my reputation, I can’t suppress this newcor!”
