Chapter 1397: Chapter 1416: Undercurrents Surging
“So-called power is like passing smoke; you think too simply.”
Before the chubby Huang could finish, Ye Xuan gently interrupted, his eyes slightly deep, directly dismissing Huang’s thoughts.
“Sir, you…?” Huang Fatty was visibly stunned, sowhat unable to understand the aning in Ye Xuan’s words.
“In the Chaotic Universe, the Twelve Primordial etings, so-called powers are like passing smoke. There are only eternal strong ones, no eternal Great Sects. If I can compare to the supre, one person alone becos a sect, able to destroy any power with the snap of a finger. The so-called Daoist Sects are rely jokes in the eyes of the supre.”
Ever since the battle with the ancient supre, and realizing the existence of taboo characters, Ye Xuan’s vision has long surpassed so-called powers. He deeply understands that no matter how strong a power, it is no more than paper in front of an ancient supre.
“However, what you said is very right. Though I have no desire to beco the king of the Northern Territory, if I can control the entire Northern Territory, it is beneficial to .” Ye Xuan’s tone shifted.
Although Ye Xuan did not intend to build any power, being able to control a region is also a good thing for him. But now, his main focus is on how to break through to the Immortal Realm; this matter is rely incidental.
“Rest assured, sir, you only need to sit behind the scenes, and leave the rest to . I have already sent a ssage to Beichen, and I believe it won’t be long before he cos to see you.” Huang Fatty said.
“Good.”
Ye Xuan slowly nodded, once again overlooking the sea of clouds ahead, and Huang Fatty quietly withdrew, knowing that Ye Xuan was comprehending himself, seeking an opportunity to break through his own cultivation.
…
Three days later, at the Taiyin Divine Palace.
Ancient bells resounded continuously, echoing through the Taiyin Divine Palace, where the Taiyin Sect Master and four Supre Elders held a joining ceremony for Ye Xuan.
It was sowhat peculiar; Ye Xuan’s joining ceremony had no disciple observers, only Huang Fatty and Lin Qing’er, which indeed seed a bit lackluster.
After all, Ye Xuan joining the Taiyin Heavenly Sect, and becoming the Deputy Sect Master, was a big event in the Taiyin Heavenly Sect. It should be widely announced with invitations to fellow Daoists to observe this joining ceremony.
However, the Taiyin Sect Master did not do this, and rely went through the motions, thus formally adding Ye Xuan to the Taiyin Heavenly Sect.
But Ye Xuan didn’t mind at all because he clearly understood that the Taiyin Sect Master was rely appeasing him, and his joining the Taiyin Heavenly Sect was also a forced action.
The joining ceremony soon ended, and the Taiyin Sect Master, with a smiling face, handed a Jade Token to Ye Xuan, saying: “Daoist Ye, this is the Deputy Sect Master Token. From now on, you are the Deputy Sect Master of our Taiyin Heavenly Sect. Should you need anything, you may instruct Steward Huang to handle it, and you can cultivate without worry in our sect.”
“Thank you, Sect Master.”
Ye Xuan humbly accepted the token, always maintaining a very calm deanor, which made the Taiyin Sect Master and the four Supre Elders quite uneasy, with clear apprehension in their eyes.
Ye Xuan was obviously an unstable factor, with uncertain motives for coming to the Taiyin Heavenly Sect. However, the Alliance Event is about to be hosted by the Taiyin Heavenly Sect, and nothing untoward must happen at this ti.
“Daoist Ye, in principle, judging by your cultivation, upon joining our sect, we should widely send invitations to fellow Daoists. Today’s joining ceremony was indeed sowhat austere, but the Alliance Event will be held in our sect in ten years, so due to the urgency of the matter, I can only inconvenience you.” The Taiyin Sect Master spoke with feigned helplessness.
“We cultivators do not care much for formalities, so there is no need for the Sect Master to bla yourself.” Ye Xuan said with a faint smile.
“Good, Daoist Ye is indeed a straightforward person, so I won’t hold you any longer. If you ever need anything, just have soone inform .” The Taiyin Sect Master said.
“Thank you, Sect Master.”
Ye Xuan cupped his hands in salute, did not linger, and directly left the Taiyin Divine Palace with Huang Fatty.
Watching Ye Xuan and Huang Fatty depart, Lin Qing’er bowed to the Taiyin Sect Master: “Master, as per your instructions, I investigated this Ye Tian’s background but couldn’t find a single clue.”
“Ye Tian is definitely not his real na, but I expected this. Have you inford the Sect Hierarch Cangtian?” The Taiyin Sect Master said in a low voice.
“Yes, Master. As you instructed, I have inford Sect Hierarch Cangtian. He told to inform you that at the Alliance Event in ten years, as long as you fulfill what you promised him, he will take care of this Ye Tian for you.” Lin Qing’er bowed and replied.
“Hmph, indeed, soone with big ambitions. But that old thing Cangtian won’t be pleased for long. Once I enter the Immortal Realm, he won’t have any leverage over my Taiyin Heavenly Sect.” The Taiyin Sect Master said with a sinister voice.
“Sect Master, with Sect Hierarch Cangtian’s intervention, Ye Tian is dood. This could be seen as a stratagem of borrowing trouble and killing two birds with one stone.” A Supre Elder flattered.
“This Ye Tian’s identity is mysterious and his combat power terrifying. At this crucial mont when I am about to enter the Immortal Realm, I can only concede slightly to him. Using that old Cangtian to kill him is the best option right now.” The Taiyin Sect Master laughed coldly.
“But Sect Master, at the Alliance Event in ten years, we are giving up such significant benefits just to kill one Ye Tian. Isn’t it a bit too unworthy?” Another Supre Elder frowned.
“What do you know, the Sect Master is soon to enter the Immortal Realm. The benefits we are temporarily giving up may seem to harm our sect now, but once the Sect Master is Immortal, these lost benefits will be reclaid tenfold. By then, our Taiyin Heavenly Sect can be renad Taiyin Sect.” Another Supre Elder explained.
“You all need not worry; in the future, my Taiyin Sect will flourish under my hands. Whether Cangtian or the current Ye Tian, they are nothing but ants beneath my feet.” The Taiyin Sect Master was ambitious, with eyes occasionally flashing a cold killing intent.
Unfortunately, the Taiyin Sect Master didn’t realize that his entire conversation and plans had fallen into Ye Xuan’s ears, which made Ye Xuan, far away, curl his lips into a disdainful sneer.
“I hadn’t intended to take action against you so soon, but since you seek your own demise, I shall grant your wish.” Ye Xuan muttered lightly and then returned to Snow Bamboo Peak with the chubby Huang.
Although Ye Xuan’s cultivation was at the Wendao Realm, his skills far surpassed the Taiyin Sect Master. He had dabbled in many supre thods, and eavesdropping from a distance was exceedingly simple for him.
The Taiyin Sect Master could not have anticipated that everything said and planned was under Ye Xuan’s control.
The poor Taiyin Sect Master was still dreaming of stepping into the Immortal Realm, never imagining that his murder intent toward Ye Xuan would bring himself a calamity of imnse proportions.
Originally, Ye Xuan didn’t intend to kill him, rely wanted him as a puppet, with Ye Xuan hiding in the shadows.
However, Ye Xuan has now changed his mind because Ye Xuan is an extrely ruthless and cruel person. Whoever wants him dead, Ye Xuan will surely kill that person, which has always been his principle in conduct.
