When Star Lord Hao Yue arrived, Cao Zhen courteously made a personal appearance. After exchanging pleasantries for so ti, the people from the Eastern Wilderness Sect made way for those assisting others, and those who wanted to spar or discuss the Dao with the disciples of the Hundred Peaks Sect went to do so. Star Lord Hao Yue, full of curiosity, looked at Cao Zhen and Xiang Ziyu and asked, "By the way, have you had any contact with Madman Axe recently?"
He mostly looked towards Xiang Ziyu, as Xiang Ziyu had always had a good relationship with Madman Axe.
"No," Xiang Ziyu lightly shook his head and asked, "Why ask about him all of a sudden?"
"I just haven’t heard any news about him for a long ti, it seems strange." Star Lord Hao Yue casually shrugged his head. Back then, the three of them were reincarnated beings of great ability. He and Cao Zhen remained active in the public eye, while Madman Axe mysteriously vanished.
Xiang Ziyu thought for a mont and said, "Though Madman Axe is mad, he is still a reincarnated being of great ability. He shouldn’t be in any trouble; he’s probably in seclusion for cultivation now."
As Cao Zhen looked at Star Lord Hao Yue, he suddenly rembered the Demonic Lord Qing Shi, that woman who had intentionally gone to the Eastern Wilderness Sect once, not knowing what she was scheming.
After giving it so thought, he decided not to warn Star Lord Hao Yue for the ti being, as he didn’t know what Demonic Lord Qing Shi intended.
He would just keep watch a bit more carefully.
Speaking of which, the identity of the Wanxiao Sect was indeed advantageous. That Demonic Lord Qing Shi even knew about a thread of Chaos Qi, and went to acquire it."
Once he observed through the China Cloud that Demonic Lord Qing Shi had obtained the Chaos Qi, it was already too late for him to set out to seize it."
Incidentally, this ti their Hundred Peaks Sect also invited the Wanxiao Sect.
Generally speaking, at grand gatherings of the Righteous Path, people from the Demonic Sect usually aren’t invited, and conversely, grand gatherings of the Demonic Sect rarely invite people from the Righteous Path.
But the Wanxiao Sect is an exception. Whether a gathering is held by a grand sect of the Righteous Path or the Demonic Sect, they would invite people from the Wanxiao Sect.
The Wanxiao Sect doesn’t belong to any grand sect of the Demonic Path nor the Righteous Path.
No one knows who the Wanxiao Sect will send this ti.
Cao Zhen had just exchanged a few words with Star Lord Hao Yue when the Ten Thousand Enemies quickly reported: "Master, people from the Dragon Chant Sect and the Azure Moon Sect have arrived, and Immortal Bi Yue, too. Madam Li Ke is outside greeting the guests."
His following words were quite clear: if Li Ke and Immortal Bi Yue were to encounter each other and start a fight, it would be quite the spectacle, and they wouldn’t dare to intervene. Master should hurry and bring them in.
His master Cao Zhen, being the leader of the Hundred Peaks Sect, naturally wouldn’t personally greet others at the mountain gate unless it was another Sect Hierarch visiting in person.
However, when attending the gatherings of other grand sects, the leaders of those sects generally don’t go in person either, so Cao Zhen was in the hall."
Star Lord Hao Yue knew of the peculiar relationship between Immortal Bi Yue, Li Ke, and Cao Zhen. Hearing this, he smiled ambiguously and turning to Xiang Ziyu, said, "Let Sect Leader Cao attend to his own matters. Besides, it’s been so ti since I’ve seen Xiang Ziyu. I’d love to spar with him for a change, so Sect Leader Cao needn’t bother with ."
Cao Zhen gave a cupped fist salute to Star Lord Hao Yue, and quickly flew towards the direction of the mountain gate.
Before he reached the foot of the mountain, he saw Ling Xi walking with the mbers of the Dragon Chant Sect and the Yin Yang Sect, not seeing Li Ke among them, which allowed him to gently exhale.
The Dragon Chant Sect and the Yin Yang Sect have always maintained a close relationship with the Hundred Peaks Sect, so arriving early to congratulate them was natural.
Everyone was also aware of Cao Zhen’s relationship with Immortal Bi Yue. After exchanging a few words with Cao Zhen, they all tactfully stepped aside, giving Cao Zhen and Immortal Bi Yue so space."
However, from the Yin Yang Sect, Immortal Jiu Yang suddenly asked, "Sect Leader Cao, where is Xiang Ziyu? Why haven’t I seen him?"
"Oh? Xiang Ziyu went to spar with an old friend. However, they likely didn’t go to our Hundred Peaks Sect’s Martial Debate Peak, which we reserved for such sparring, but went sowhere else.
If you wish to find him, you might ask other disciples of our Hundred Peaks Sect; soone might know where he’s gone."
Upon hearing this, Immortal Jiu Yang quickly left, followed by Immortal Jiu Yin."
The people from the Dragon Chant Sect and the Yin Yang Sect naturally had other high-level mbers of the Hundred Peaks Sect to entertain them, while Cao Zhen looked at Immortal Bi Yue, who clearly had sothing to say to him, "It’s been a long ti since you’ve seen Little Yin the Dragon. You must miss him too. Co, let’s go see him."
With that, he rose and flew towards the Four Treasures Peak. After a distance, when there were no others around, only then did he turn to Immortal Bi Yue and ask, "You seem like you have sothing to say to . What is it you wish to say?"
"It’s about the Central Continent," Immortal Bi Yue’s expression grew serious, "As you know, our Central Five Provinces are nad so because the five provinces are connected together.
This is different from how the Eastern Wasteland and the Eastern Province are separated by the endless ocean.
However, although the Central Five Provinces are connected, there are invisible crystal barriers between the provinces, preventing easy travel between them.
Of course, every so often, a gap appears in the crystal barrier where the Central Continent can move freely with the other four provinces.
Otherwise, the Rare Treasures Comrce Association and the Wanxiao Sect wouldn’t be able to traverse the whole Central Five Provinces. The reason they can achieve this is that they know where a gap in the crystal barrier will appear."
Cao Zhen gently nodded. He naturally understood that people from the Central Five Provinces could enter other large provinces. His disciple Duo Duo had even traveled from the Central Five Provinces to the Eastern Province, and from the Eastern Province into the Eastern Wasteland.
After seeing Cao Zhen nod, Immortal Bi Yue continued gravely, "Our Dragon Chant Sect also possesses knowledge of a gap allowing entry into the Central Continent.
Normally, the gap should fully open in about five hundred years, allowing us entry into the Central Continent. Furthermore, these gaps don’t last long, usually not more than a day.
But recently, the gap suddenly opened. Now three days have passed, and the gap still exists and even seems to be expanding.
And the Yin Yang Sect is aware of another gap into the Central Continent. They have encountered a similar situation, where their gap, which should open in about six hundred years, is also now open. Moreover, it has lasted longer, for seven days already. There’s only one condition under which such changes would occur."
