Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

As the thunderclouds dissipated.

Above the sky, a cultivator was dressed in a long robe with star patterns.

His entire body was filled with crimson spiritual energy.

The moment it landed, the entire temple trembled.

Su Chen frowned.

This person is a cultivator in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

If we say that there are very few cultivators at the Void Refinement stage in the entire Xuanhuang Continent.

This person must be one of the strongest cultivators below the Void Refinement level.

Su Chen has seen quite a few Nascent Soul cultivators in the past few days.

Speaking of which, Gu Sandao was a top expert among those who had reached the Nascent Soul stage.

Both are Nascent Soul cultivators, and both are in the late Nascent Soul stage.

This person's aura was clearly three points sharper than that of Gu Sandao.

"Yun Changqing, the Supreme Master of the Starry Sky Sect!"

"By order of the Supreme Elder of our sect, I have come to offer my congratulations on the dual cultivation ceremony of Fellow Daoist Li's granddaughter."

This person cupped his hands in the direction of the main hall, completely ignoring all the other cultivators present.

The main hall was originally filled with lively and noisy sounds.

They fell silent the moment they heard the name of the Starry Sky Dao Sect.

The faction that claims to be the number one sect on the Xuanhuang Continent certainly carries weight.

Moreover, the person who came was a Grand Elder under the Starry Sky Dao Sect's Ancestor Wang Qiushan.

He is considered one of the strongest in the entire Xuanhuang Continent.

This time, the Starry Sky Dao Sect really gave them a lot of face.

If it were any other sect, even if it were the sect leader's wedding, the Starry Sky Dao Sect would at most send a minor elder to deal with it.

That's why Li Ziran has this much face.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

With a hearty laugh, an even more terrifying pressure swept across the entire hall.

The space between heaven and earth was instantly filled with boundless spiritual light.

A single laugh was enough to trigger celestial phenomena.

The next moment, space was torn apart.

Li Ziran stepped out from the crack.

It was clear that Yun Changqing's imposing aura just now was meant to intimidate the assembled heroes.

At this moment, Li Ziran's aura actually suppressed the other party's aura.

"Fellow Daoist Yun has come from afar; I have failed to greet you properly."

"However, I have known that old fellow Wang Qiushan since we were in the Nascent Soul stage."

"I am somewhat disappointed that you did not come in person..."

The meaning of this statement couldn't be clearer.

For other sects, sending even a minor elder is already considered a great honor from the Starry Sky Dao Sect.

The fact that you, the Grand Master, have come shows that Wang Qiushan still values ​​Luoyan City.

But in my opinion, it's far from being substantial enough!

"Please forgive me, Elder Li."

"Our sect's Supreme Elder is very busy with sect affairs."

"Today, the demon race from the outer seas has invaded my Tian Shu Star City."

"The Supreme Elder is unable to leave his post in Tian Shu Star City."

"Please forgive me, please forgive me..."

This statement was perfectly watertight.

Moreover, he had just addressed me as "fellow Daoist," but now he was calling me "Ancestor Li."

This saved Li Ziran face; if he continued to make trouble, it would seem like he lacked manners.

"Never mind!"

"I'm in a very good mood today. Please, take a seat!"

Li Ziran laughed heartily.

Yun Changqing, however, did not rush to sit down. Instead, he glanced at everyone.

That's when he noticed Su Chen, who was wearing a formal robe.

Su Chen was also taken aback.

Such a powerful being would certainly not be targeting me.

It must be because of Li Ziran's sake.

After exchanging pleasantries, it was time to take our seats.

And at this moment, he was staring straight at me for a long time.

That's a bit strange.

At this moment, Yun Changqing also had his brows furrowed.

The Starry Sky Dao Sect had received the invitation half a month ago.

Wang Qiushan didn't take it too seriously at first.

He did indeed instruct me to just give it a perfunctory answer.

Li Ziran, that old monster, has been a loner for so many years, and it seems he has long since given up on taking on a Daoist partner.

After all, this old monster has devoted all his attention to his granddaughter over the years.

It's not surprising that a grandson-in-law suddenly appeared.

However, the elders in charge of intelligence within the sect discovered something fishy.

Information about the Starry Sky Dao Sect has spread throughout the entire Xuanhuang Continent.

Nothing escapes their eyes.

Two of these events greatly shocked the Starry Sky Dao Sect.

Firstly, the granddaughter of that old monster Li Ziran was almost publicly humiliated by a disciple of her own sect.

These disciples were, in fact, inner disciples of the sect.

This immediately shocked Wang Qiushan.

Wang Qiushan originally wanted to form an alliance with Luoyan City.

Moreover, someone from their own sect was messing with the granddaughter of an old monster in the Void Refinement stage.

If Li Ziran finds out about this, even with my mid-stage Void Refinement cultivation, he'll still come to demand an explanation.

They might turn on each other on the spot.

If this leads to a major conflict, both major powers will be severely weakened instantly.

Even Wang Qiushan was shocked and executed those inner disciples that very night.

This time, Li Ziran didn't pursue the matter to the end, which naturally gave the Starry Sky Dao Sect enough face.

Part of the reason is that they don't want to break off relations.

Secondly, after much thought, Li Ziran felt that Wang Qiushan couldn't be that stupid.

It's probably because this girl is playful and happened to run into a few clueless disciples.

But this matter did not shock Wang Qiushan.

What Wang Qiushan was even more concerned about was that this kid named Su Chen seemed to be from Qingzhou.

That kid from that godforsaken place actually went straight to Gu Sandao.

Gu Sandao has lived a secluded life for so many years, yet he has always protected this kid, and even let him stay for a few days.

No sooner had this kid left than Gu Sandao ran into the Xingluo forces.

At the same time, the people of Xingluo secretly released the news.

It is said that the Red Demon, who disappeared a thousand years ago, has now been found.

This is a big deal!

These events, taken together, made him wary.

That old red demon is a legendary figure.

In fact, Wang Qiushan had witnessed the magnificence of that old red demon a thousand years ago.

At that time, the old demon red had already reached the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement Realm.

Now, a thousand years have passed. If that old demon had not perished, who knows what realm he would be in now.

Once this old devil reappears.

It's possible that Xingluo could rule the entire Xuanhuang Continent overnight.

So another purpose of sending Yun Changqing this time.

The purpose was to investigate the truth of the matter, to see if Su Chen had anything special about him.

"Young Master Su, may I ask why you, with your extraordinary talent, have achieved the Nascent Soul stage before the age of two hundred?"

"He even broke through to the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm in a short period of time."

"This terrifying speed of advancement is something even I, back in the day, might not have been able to match."

Yun Changfeng walked up to Su Chen and nodded.

This left everyone completely baffled.

Even if today were Su Chen's dual cultivation ceremony, such a person wouldn't need to be so polite to Su Chen, a mere Nascent Soul cultivator.

Moreover, even if it's just a few polite words, it should be directed at Li Ziran and his granddaughter first.

However, not many people were willing to think about it further.

After all, this matter has little to do with other people.
