South Peak.
As Ye Xiaofan climbed up to South Peak with steps filled with confusion and doubt, he was completely stunned by the scene before him.
What used to be a rarely visited, tranquil place was now teeming with people.
Especially in Dugu Nan’s small courtyard, which was never that spacious, it was now full of elderly n with white hair.
These elders were all quite old, yet each emitted an aura of endless terror.
Furthermore, even outside the courtyard on South Peak, there were nurous elderly figures standing, all exuding an aura of authority without anger.
From the attire of these elders, Ye Xiaofan could easily guess that they were all Array Peak Elders, and there were about eighty to ninety of them both inside and outside the courtyard.
Of course, this wasn’t the total number of Elders from Array Peak; more precisely, these were the top-tier elders at the pinnacle of the Array Peak Elder Council, as the hierarchy of the Divine Peak Elders comprised various levels.
When Ye Xiaofan ascended South Peak, the entire peak fell silent, pin-drop audible, with all eyes fixed on the young figure.
Being scrutinized by so many senior figures made Ye Xiaofan feel uneasy, as the gazes of these Array Peak Elders carried an invisible sense of pressure unlike the disciples of the Divine Sword Sect.
"Fan’Er, co here."
Dugu Nan and Qi Yun naturally noticed Ye Xiaofan coming up the mountain and smiled warmly at him. Dugu Nan beckoned him over with a slight gesture.
"Yes."
Responding affirmatively, Ye Xiaofan walked towards Dugu Nan with a nervous heart, his eyes full of questions.
At this mont, he didn’t know the reason for the presence of so many elders from the Array Peak, nor the matter of the old Peak Master, nor why these elders had co.
However, seeing his master’s expression, Ye Xiaofan could guess that these elders were likely here because of him.
Facing Ye Xiaofan’s questioning gaze, Dugu Nan pretended not to notice and began to introduce him, "Fan’Er, et the Array Peak elders. They are your seniors, also your martial uncles and grandmasters."
After Dugu Nan spoke, Ye Xiaofan took a careful look at all the Array Peak elders within the courtyard. It’s clear that those who could sit in the courtyard are prominent figures of Array Peak, each a colossus within the Divine Sword Sect.
Fortunately, the elders seated in the courtyard were friendly-looking despite being old, unlike the authoritative elders outside the courtyard, making them appear much more approachable.
"Disciple Ye Xiaofan greets the Array Peak elders, martial uncles, grandmasters, and all senior figures." Without hesitation, Ye Xiaofan slightly bowed to the white-haired elders inside the courtyard, then to those outside.
Seeing Ye Xiaofan’s courteous actions, many Array Peak elders stroked their beards and nodded with smiles.
Observing this, Dugu Nan smiled faintly, then turned his gaze to the most elderly figure and slowly said, "Elder Yin, whatever it is, you can directly talk to Fan’Er. Even though I’m his master, ultimately, I’m not him; as for the decision, it depends on his own choice."
After Dugu Nan’s words, the Array Peak elders seed ready to speak but hesitated, unsure of how to begin.
Ye Xiaofan turned to Dugu Nan after hearing this and couldn’t help asking, "Master, did the elders co to South Peak for sothing related to ?"
By now, Ye Xiaofan vaguely suspected so reasons, but wasn’t certain.
Before Dugu Nan could reply, Qi Yun smiled slightly and said, "Fan’Er, the elders from Array Peak want you to co to Array Peak to receive the old Peak Master’s inheritance. However, your master and I think it’s best if you make this decision yourself."
"Old Peak Master? Inherit the Array Peak legacy?" Ye Xiaofan was montarily stunned, utterly shocked, and full of disbelief.
He rely participated in an Array Battle tournant and achieved a top ten position; how did this lead to inheriting the Array Peak legacy?
Moreover, Ye Xiaofan’s initial purpose for joining the Array Battle was just to win one of the Ten Great Killing Arrays as a reward, not for any Array Peak inheritance.
After hearing Qi Yun’s words, Ye Xiaofan’s gaze moved towards all the Array Peak elders and finally landed on Elder Yin, whom Dugu Nan just ntioned, full of astonishnt.
Clearly, this Elder Yin should be one of the most respected elders at Array Peak after the old Peak Master, at least among those present.
Seeing Ye Xiaofan’s surprised expression, the Array Peak elders were visibly pleased.
Senior Elder Yin gently stroked his beard and smiled kindly, saying, "Child, would you like to accept the Array Peak inheritance? Once you agree, from now on, you will be the Saint Heir of Array Peak. All the resources of Array Peak will be directed to you, and all elders above the ’six-word’ level will personally guide you in the Array Dao."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaofan was stunned. As long as he nodded, all the future resources of Array Peak would be available to him, and moreover, he would be the Saint Heir of the Holy Peak?
