Capítulo 1315: Chapter 1311: Inspecting the Tianxuan Sect
Huang Ze was quite reluctant to be used by Ye Fan, but he had no choice because Ye Fan now possessed the power to destroy his Huangji Sect.
Huang Ze thought to himself: “If I find the Divine Artifact on Heavenly Peak Mountain, would I give it to you? Perhaps I will use this artifact to advance my cultivation, enough to replace you as the new Alliance Hierarch. Ye Fan, oh Ye Fan, you’re really self-absorbed, daring to issue such a ridiculous command!”
“Alliance Hierarch Ye, since you have commanded, naturally we dare not disobey. Just allow this: should any of my disciples damage the gate of the Lihuo Sect, please don’t hold it against us!” Huang Ze seed distressed, but he was secretly laughing inside.
“Alright, send a ssenger back, just have your people co!” Ye Fan said.
“Please wait a mont, Alliance Hierarch Ye.”
Huang Ze imdiately sent a Jade Talisman ssage back to Huangji Sect, and within not even four hours, more than sixty disciples of Huangji Sect arrived at the foot of Heavenly Peak Mountain. Ye Fan personally escorted these people up the mountain, while Huang Ze did not stay on Heavenly Peak Mountain. He was aware that the restrictions on the mountain would let people up but not allow them to co down. Once Ye Fan left, these sixty-plus disciples of Huangji Sect would be like entering a prison, only able to go in but not out.
“Alliance Hierarch Ye, just wait for the good news. I, as Sect Master, will return to the sect first, then gather a batch of disciples to co along!” Huang Ze seed eager to assist Ye Fan in finding the Divine Artifact on Heavenly Peak Mountain, but it was rely to cover up his sche.
Once Huang Ze departed, Hai Wuzi approached and said: “Young Hero Ye, you should guard against Sect Master Huang. Perhaps it is inappropriate for to speak, but Huangji Sect… has always harbored ambitions to annex other sects!”
Ye Fan, with a smile, cupped his hands: “Thank you, Sect Master Hai, for the reminder. I’ve asked you here rely to inform you of this matter. As for the people of Xinghe Sect, there’s no need for them to co to Heavenly Peak Mountain for now. Should I require their assistance in the future, I will send soone to request your approval!”
Ye Fan held great respect for Hai Wuzi, amongst the Sect Masters of the seven major sects, the one he admired most was Hai Wuzi. She was also Min Shang’s master, almost like Ye Fan’s mother-in-law.
Hai Wuzi nodded and departed Heavenly Peak Mountain, after which Ye Fan proceeded towards Tianxuan Sect.
Sang Yuan spoke with so concern: “Young Master, I can sense that Huang Ze harbors ill intentions. Why allow the people from Huangji Sect on Heavenly Peak Mountain? Aren’t you afraid they might find the Divine Artifact, use it to breach the mountain’s defenses, and take the artifact away? Or perhaps the artifact itself is the reason for Heavenly Peak Mountain’s spiritual energy barrier.”
“If he can find it, let him find it. Whether he can obtain it is another matter. Can’t you have soone watching around Heavenly Peak Mountain?” Ye Fan retorted coolly.
Sang Yuan imdiately understood that allowing Huang Ze to search for the Divine Artifact was secondary. Sang Yuan said: “The Young Master wants the people of Huangji Sect to focus their attention on Heavenly Peak Mountain, diverting their gaze!”
“Precisely.” Ye Fan replied, “Now, it’s ti to head to the Tianxuan Sect, to test the authority as Sect Master of the seven major sects!”
…
…
Ye Fan, accompanied by Sang Yuan and over twenty experts above the Divinity Transformation Stage under Sang Yuan’s command, arrived at Tianxuan Sect’s Shuangfeng Mountain gate.
Historically, the gate restrictions on Shuangfeng Mountain were extrely powerful, preventing any cultivator from flying sword around the vicinity. However, this ti, Ye Fan did not stop at the foot of the mountain but directly landed with his entourage in the great hall between Shuangfeng Mountain’s peaks, a place where all the sect’s disciples used to gather.
“Who are you?” As Ye Fan landed, he instinctively headed towards the ssaging hall, where he first t Wu Ding when he first ca to Shuangfeng Mountain.
This was where the elder in charge of intelligence at Shuangfeng Mountain collected information. When Ye Fan arrived, familiar processes were in motion, with nurous Jade Talisman ssages arriving at the ssaging hall. But the person gathering intelligence was no longer Wu Ding, but a stranger—an unfamiliar young woman who was warily assessing him.
Ye Fan squinted at this young woman—she was young, lacking the steadiness and sophistication of Wu Ding, yet seed sowhat naïve. Witnessing Ye Fan, she shouted, but there was a hint of fear because this young man before her had appeared in the ssaging hall without triggering the mountain gate’s restrictions; she couldn’t detect Ye Fan’s cultivation, implying his cultivation was far superior to her own.
This person was Ping Han, the new generation elder who succeeded Wu Ding, of a lower generation than Ye Fan.
Ye Fan smiled and asked: “Who are you?”
“?” Ping Han was taken aback by the question but then realized she had triggered the mountain gate’s warning, summoning assistance from the Tian and Xuan sects.
Ye Fan watched her with amusent as if appreciating a fine piece of art. Ping Han pointed her sword at Ye Fan but hesitated to attack.
The longer she faced Ye Fan, the more pressure Ping Han felt in her heart, as his cultivation was terrifyingly higher than hers; sweat already appeared on her forehead. She feared that if this man wished to kill her, it would be effortless.
“Indeed, Wu Ding’s successor, yet still an inexperienced young girl. If Wu Ding knew, she’d probably be quite pleased?” Ye Fan teased mockingly.
“What… did you say?” Further surprising Ping Han was this stranger referring to her idol, Wu Ding, as “senior sister”; since she had been in secluded training and hadn’t t Ye Fan before, she wasn’t aware of the renowned “Alliance Hierarch Ye” standing before her.
As Ping Han was at a loss, a voice echoed from behind her, belonging to Elder Wu: “It’s an honor to have Alliance Hierarch Ye here; forgive us for not welcoming you properly!”
Accompanying Elder Wu were Qing Ning and other experts from the Qing and Wu generations. These were the remaining core mbers of Tianxuan Sect. Included among them were disciples from the Ping generation, though only Ping Han had achieved the rank of elder.
“Alliance Hierarch Ye, is it really you?” Qing Ning said, now serving as an elder in Tianxuan Sect with considerable influence. She had been Ye Fan’s senior sister before.
Ye Fan glanced around; it seed all Tianxuan Sect disciples above the Golden Core Stage had gathered at once, yet the first-generation disciples, and the two elders of equal standing with Sect Leader Hua Wu, Jing Ya and Hui Ning, were absent.
It appeared the intelligence Sang Yuan had previously received was accurate, suggesting Tianxuan Sect was orchestrating a plot to overthrow Ye Fan from his position as sect alliance hierarch.
Ye Fan smiled and said: “Why can’t it be ? I’ve co to inspect the mountain gates of the subordinate sects, just to see how they’re preparing for the tribulations; I didn’t expect such lax defenses at Tianxuan Sect, allowing to easily enter the core of Tianxuan Sect. If there were any wrongdoers aiming to invade, wouldn’t it be just as easy?”
