Chapter 438: The Sect Master Who Depends on Walking
Chapter 438: The Sect Master Who Depends on Walking
The pillars and furnishings of the main hall were slightly dilapidated, but at least they were kept clean.
Elder Yang sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion, observing the crowd slowly filing in below.
Although he couldn't directly interact with Shen Yi, his gaze swept over Tongxin Chuan and Xu Qing'er, whom he had met before, and he became slightly more alert.
In comparison to the monstrous talents, these two seemed rather lackluster.
However, within the Qingyue Sect, they were both exceptional talents, especially the young girl. At such a young age, she had already surpassed Yan Wencheng in array disk manipulation through her natural talent and intuition.
If she continued to progress in her cultivation realm, her future achievements might be limitless.
Just then, Elder Yang suddenly received a message. He frowned and took out a jade slip, from which Liu Qianyun's voice could be heard.
"Disciple Liu Qianyun, I need to go out to handle some matters and urgently require assistance. I wonder if Elder Yang has any available administrators under his command, preferably at the Third Layer of Returning to Void."
"Sigh."
Elder Yang let out a sigh. As an outer sect elder specializing in array formations, every time this group went out, they would ask him for an administrator proficient in arrays to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.
There weren't that many people available.
"Since we're all free, why don't you go?" Elder Yang turned to look at Yan Wencheng beside him.
Although this disciple was only at the First Layer of Returning to Void, if given enough time to set up an array, he might not necessarily lose to an administrator at the Third Layer.
Moreover, Liu Qianyun most likely just wanted his help in discerning arrays. According to the rules, when an administrator leaves the sect, they should be accompanied by a formal administrator at the Fourth Layer of Returning to Void. There was no need for an array master to get involved in a fight.
If it were just a matter of theoretical knowledge, it would be even less of a problem.
"..."
Yan Wencheng fell silent for a moment. He actually wanted to stay and exchange a few words with Shen Yi, at least to understand how he had lost that day.
However, Elder Yang was his master, and a disciple couldn't disobey their master's orders.
"Disciple understands," Yan Wencheng replied respectfully, then left the hall somewhat reluctantly.
...
Qingyue Sect.
It must be said that Liu Qianyun's efficiency was remarkable.
As soon as she left Elder Liu, she had already found a suitable task and contacted a close sister who was not only competent but also ranked among the top administrators.
Although Shen Yi had the Stone Puppet, he wasn't officially a member of Qingyue Sect, which didn't quite follow the rules for going out. That's why she had asked a few outer sect elders.
"How is it?"
Zheng Qian glanced at her, "With your timid nature, how dare you venture outside?"
"..."
Liu Qianyun elbowed the slender woman, "You're the timid one. I've found an administrator proficient in arrays."
She knew her sister's straightforward personality and that she wouldn't really get angry.
"That's more like it," Zheng Qian said, pursing her lips and slightly frowning. "To be honest, although my cultivation is much higher than yours, it's not that impressive outside. Ordinary tasks are fine, but you're going after a Fire-Nature Bird Demon."
"You know that in this region of Hongze, those aquatic tribes are naturally fire-hating. They'd kill any fire-natured demon they see. Surviving in such circumstances is no easy feat, and their lairs are full of traps."
Upon hearing this, Liu Qianyun withdrew her elbow and averted her gaze. "It just so happened that I came across this task. There's no need to worry so much... Besides, aren't you just one level higher than me? What do you mean by much higher?"
Zheng Qian shook her head and smiled, not wanting to rub salt in her wounds.
Those who haven't experienced it themselves can hardly understand the magnitude of the gap between cultivation levels.
"Hasn't he arrived yet?"
Zheng Qian stepped out of the sect and stood on the Qingyue relief carving.
"We'll have to wait a little longer."
Liu Qianyun raised her eyes to look, and with the Southern Yang Sect's current resources, it was unlikely that they could produce a substitute treasure.
The two of them waited for a moment.
Finally, they saw a shuttle flying through the sky.
Yan Wencheng landed gracefully and bowed to the two of them, "Disciple Yan Wencheng, I come at Elder Yang's command. Greetings to both of you, Administrators."
"Why are you here?"
Liu Qianyun instinctively furrowed her brows. If she remembered correctly, this boy had lost to Shen Yi the other day.
She had specifically sought out an Administrator skilled in Array Dao to avoid any mishaps, not to invite trouble.
"You understand nothing."
Zheng Qian gave Liu Qianyun a cold look and smiled gently at Yan Wencheng, "There's no need to be so polite. Just call me Senior Sister... Yan Shidi's abilities are no less than yours. You'll understand once you see him in action."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Zheng Qian. I'll do my best."
Yan Wencheng thanked her without showing any sign of inferiority, not bothering to explain anything to Liu Qianyun, an outsider.
With the missions he had undertaken based on his strength, he was confident that the Array Dao support he could gather was no less than anyone else's.
"You're welcome."
Zheng Qian smiled and waved her hand dismissively. Setting aside the Array Dao, just Yan Shidi's figure and thick skin were already pleasing to the eye.
"Let's go."
She waved her hand and took the Clear Moon Treasure Boat from Liu Qianyun.
"What do you mean by leaving now? The main person... hasn't arrived yet."
Liu Qianyun snatched the treasure boat back and glared at her.
To put it bluntly, the reason she had set up this situation was that she was a bit worried she couldn't control Shen Yi. She would have to accompany him for another three months, and who knew what trouble Shen Zong Master's temper might stir up.
"There's still someone else?"
Zheng Qian and Yan Wencheng were both taken aback.
The next moment, they saw a radiant light of purple and white descending from the sky.
As the light dissipated, a figure in a black robe appeared.
Shen Yi bowed to the group, "Sorry to keep you waiting."
It had taken him four hours to reach Qingyue Sect, which was only a one-stick-of-incense journey away.
"No, we just arrived too. I should have come to pick you up." Liu Qianyun shook her head; if it weren't for the need to keep Zheng Qian in check, she would have gone to the Southern Yang Sect long ago.
This sister of hers hated people who took advantage of their status, and if her father, the Elder, wasn't so old-fashioned, she might have even been looked down upon by Zheng Qian.
"First Layer of Returning Void?"
Zheng Qian raised her eyebrows slightly. Although this young man was also extraordinarily handsome, taking two disciples out might be a bit too risky. She had to protect Yan Shidi.
Before she could finish speaking,
Yan Shidi's expression suddenly became strange.
He looked at himself, then at Liu Qianyun, and finally, his gaze returned to Shen Yi.
Yan Wencheng didn't quite understand. With such a grand display, why was he summoned? He seemed superfluous no matter how he looked at it.
After a moment, he took a deep breath, bowed, and said, "Wencheng pays his respects to Shen Zong Master."
Although he had lost the previous time, it was only a minor array setup.
If he could truly witness the other party's skills, it would convince him.
As soon as the words "Zong Master" were spoken,
Zheng Qian's expression also became strange.
Combined with the young man's cultivation, she almost didn't need to think to deduce his identity.
"Southern Yang Zong Master?"
She looked at Liu Qianyun, who seemed a bit guilty, and her smile faded as she slowly looked away.
She didn't want to truly bow and address him as Zong Master, nor did she want to cause a scene, so she decided to ignore the situation.
