Young Master Xing's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Since I already know about this matter, I will definitely report it to the elders when I return. You can rest assured and focus on rebuilding the mountain gate for now."

"Yes."

Young Master Xing then asked, "There must be quite a few people with Five Spirits Gu in your mountain gate, right? Bu Chou came and killed so many people, yet nothing was discovered?"

"No other reactions."

Tian Guang said, "This matter was indeed fortunate, because when Bu Chou first arrived, he knocked down several surrounding peaks with a few strikes, causing dust to fill the sky, obscuring vision. Most people died in the chaos. Bu Chou moved quickly, killing people here and then already headed to another mountain... It became increasingly chaotic, which again concealed our identity. It can be considered... a blessing in disguise!"

Tian Guang continued, "Moreover, in the mountain gate, people with Five Spirits Gu are not many. Most are high-level members. After checking, less than ten died, and they were all in different places..."

"I see."

Young Master Xing's face darkened, "Sect Leader Tian, I came this time because I received a letter from my elder brother, Feng Yun, asking for Yishan Sect's help with something."

"Elder Young Master needing something doesn't need to use the word 'ask'; Young Master Xing can just order."

Tian Guang felt a chill in his heart.

Young Master Xing's elder brother, Feng Yun, was a significant figure in the sect. Although his position wasn't prominent now, he was a leading figure among the younger generation of the Wei Wo Zheng Sect.

Surely a future giant.

"The sub branch of the Yixin Sect in Baiyun State is using the identity of your Yishan Sect members."

Young Master Xing said flatly, "This sub branch is very important. My brother said to ask Yishan Sect to do everything possible to cooperate and preferably provide some convenience. Under no circumstances should there be any hindrance."

Young Master Xing felt that his own authority wasn't enough.

So he brought up Feng Yun.

Nominally a request, but in fact, an order.

Tian Guang immediately broke into a cold sweat.

Flying Sword Peak had just sent someone to extort, and now came the warning.

Tian Guang understood the meaning very well.

"Definitely cooperate! Absolutely cooperate!"

With such a warning, the two disciples sent from Flying Sword Peak were likely gone.

But for those two little disciples, Tian Guang now really didn't have any feelings to inquire about.

If they're dead, they're dead, after all, over ten thousand died within the mountain gate itself.

What's there to say?

Too commonplace.

Young Master Xing completed his task and then took his leave.

The state Yishan Sect was in really left no face to invite Young Master Xing to stay for a meal or overnight.

What to stay for? To watch your funeral?

Young Master Xing left.

And headed back to headquarters.

Moreover, he was in a hurry.

Because he had just received news that the Yixin Sect Leader Yin Shen Palace was about to arrive at headquarters.

So he had to rush back.

If Yin Shen Palace returned to Yixin Sect and then cut off Starlight, what would happen?

While on the road, he sent a message to his brother Feng Yue: "Tell Yin Shen Palace to not rush to leave, wait for me to return to discuss something."

Feng Yue's reply was quite odd: "Who is Yin Shen Palace?"

Feng Xing sighed.

The shortcomings of his own brothers were basically the same, they generally didn't pay attention to the people below, let alone hold them in their hearts.

While he could understand somewhat, his brother did not even know who Yin Shen Palace was.

This time back, he definitely needed to get to know the people below. Originally, he scoffed at his brother's egalitarian connections and respect for talent, but now it seemed that he was truly wrong.

Subordinate sects, full of talent indeed.

"Yin Shen Palace is the Sect Leader of the Yixin Sect, you go inquire around, and you'll find him."

"Okay."

Feng Yue immediately agreed.

Only then did Young Master Xing feel at ease, continually calculating in his mind.

The words Starlight had said to him kept echoing in his mind.

"Young Master Xing, how do you see your future?"

"What are Young Master Xing's aspirations for the future?"

He thought as he walked, but the more he thought, the more confused he became.

At the highest point in the future, at most he could reach beneath the Nine Vice Sect Masters.

Never having the chance to ascend further.

Frankly, even if one of the Nine Vice Sect Masters died one day, they wouldn't be selected from among his ranks to fill the position.

"So what is my future, really?"

Young Master Xing thought along the way, muttering to himself.

"The golden-scaled dragon is not an ordinary thing, meeting clouds will transform into a dragon."

...

Yin Shen Palace traveled with Chief Wu Xiang from the Southeast Headquarters, after a journey of ten thousand miles, they finally arrived at headquarters.

Standing in front of the headquarters city, Yin Shen Palace felt a myriad of emotions.

This was his life; the three hundred and twenty-first time coming to headquarters.

He remembered this number very clearly.

But previously when he came to headquarters, it was either because headquarters summoned all subordinate sect leaders for a meeting, or to deliver gifts.

Bowing and scraping, cautious.

Never once was it that a figure of Vice Sect Master level called for him!

As for attending meetings... it was unspeakable.

In the Yixin Sect, he was quite dominant; in the Southeast region, he was someone, but at headquarters during a meeting...

An overwhelming sea of people.

All people of similar status to himself.

Sitting crowded below the stage.

Of hundreds of rows of seats, each row had over a hundred people.

He sat beyond the hundredth row, and those waves of heads ahead of him, each person more impressive than himself!

A few words from a Vice Sect Master on stage, he would at most recognize their face.

But they definitely wouldn't recognize him.

But today, I, Yin Shen Palace, was summoned by Vice Sect Master Yan Nan, who presides over the sect affairs!

And also to receive a reward.

Yin Shen Palace felt his life had risen another rank.

But his heart was also heavy, because the risks were equally great.

Upon entering the city gate, the City Gate Officer strictly checked identities. When it was Yin Shen Palace's turn, the officer glanced up.

Looking at Yin Shen Palace's face, he said, "You are the Yixin Sect Leader Yin Shen Palace? The mentor of the 'Cultivating Gu to Become a God' Plan Champion, Yemo?"

Yin Shen Palace's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained unchanged, "That's me, summoned by Vice Sect Master Yan."

The City Gate Officer smiled and said, "No need to be nervous. Please, come in, haha, please, come in."

...

Yin Shen Palace entered the city, his mood growing heavier.

It seemed the situation was more serious than he imagined.

Just seeing this City Gate Officer's reaction made Yin Shen Palace realize that as soon as he left the officer's sight and entered the city, the information would have already been relayed.

Fearfully before reaching the designated inn, the families of those who had died by Yemo's hand would already be aware of his arrival.

Chief Wu Xiang looked sideways at Yin Shen Palace, sighing, "Sect Leader Yin, this time... it's somewhat unexpected indeed."

Yin Shen Palace's face was heavy, and he said, "Chief Wu, this time, I'm afraid... this life really reaches its end."
