Previously, when they met, he had an excellent impression of Han Zhao. However, his experiences in the past few years had made him develop a cautious habit.
“Let’s go to the Cloud Prefecture’s Qian Heaven Palace to acknowledge a master first. When the time comes, we’ll find an opportunity to meet Eldest
Senior Brother in private,” Ling Feng continued.
“Alright.” Ling Yun nodded. Although his cultivation level had already surpa.s.sed his brother by a lot, he still prioritized his opinion.
Hundred Spirit Sect.
After being baptized by the Vermilion Bird True Fire, the main peak of the Wutong Mountain Range was almost barren.
Black pits could be seen everywhere. The ground at the edge turned black-red like rolling magma, emitting a terrifying heat.
This was only because a small amount of the Vermilion Bird True Fire had sputtered. Otherwise, most of the main peak would have been burned by the true fire.
“As expected of the legendary Wutong Tree that can accommodate phoenixes.”
Han Zhao looked up at the huge Wutong Tree on the peak that was like a canopy that covered the sky. The Wutong Tree that was struck by the
Vermilion Bird True Flame only lost a portion of its branches and leaves. Moreover, the remaining branches and trunks were even brighter.
The Wutong Tree continuously absorbed the fire spiritual qi and shocking heat in the void.
Han Zhao carried Yu Sheng to the sect master’s hall not far from the Wutong Tree at the peak.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Five Spirit Summoners flew out of the sect master’s hall. They all looked like they had depleted their Dharma power.
It turned out that only Yu Sheng accepted the challenge in the entire Hundred Spirit Sect because the other elders and legacy disciples were helping him activate the Myriad Spirit Array.
“Han Zhao?!”
Yan Buhuan was shocked.
The commotion of the battle outside was earth-shattering. However, they were ordered to maintain the array foundation, so the elders only left the sect masters hall after the battle stopped for a long time.
At this moment, the entire Wutong Mountain was in a mess. Yu Shengs aura was extremely weak.
How could they not know that they had already lost this battle?
It was a complete defeat!
“All of you are Fellow Daoist Xuanji’s subordinates. I don’t want to fight you. Make way. I want to wake Fellow Daoist Xuanji up.” Han Zhao glanced at the five of them and walked into the sect master’s hall.
“This…” Yan Buhuan’s expression changed. When Han Zhao walked to his side, he gritted his teeth and took the initiative to make way.
Yu Sheng did not listen to him and suffered such a huge defeat. She deserved it.
In any case, Yu Xuanji had a deep relationship with Han Zhao and he would definitely not s.n.a.t.c.h the foundation of the Hundred Spirit Sect.
The other elders saw that Han Zhao’s Dharma power was as deep as the sea and unfathomable. They did not want to be enemies with him to begin with. Now that someone was taking the lead, they retreated one after another and did not dare to stop him.
“Sigh… From today onwards, my Hundred Spirit Sect will plummet and won’t be as prosperous as before.” After Han Zhao entered the Sect Master’s Hall, an elder looked at the devastated Wutong Mountain and couldn’t help but sigh.
The other elders were the same.
“Everyone, there’s no need to be so dejected. After today, when Sect Master Xuanji regains control of the sect, the Hundred Spirit Sect will only rise to a higher level in the future!” Yan Buhuan pondered and said.
“Oh?” The elders exclaimed in surprise.
“You mean… Han Zhao!”
Soon, someone reacted.
“In order to save Sect Master Xuanji, this person actually risked his life to enter the Myriad Spirit Array. Before this, didn’t everyone present think that he would definitely die?” Yan Buhuan asked.
“That’s right, that’s right! After Sect Master Xuanji transcends this tribulation, she will definitely be able to undergo nirvana and her strength will be even stronger than before.”
“With the sect master inside and Han Zhao outside, our Hundred Spirit Sect will only rise to a higher level!”
The elders nodded repeatedly.
Yu Xuanji and Yu Sheng were both personal disciples of the previous Sect Master.
Therefore, be it Yu Xuanji or Yu Sheng, it was the same no matter who was the sect master.
In the end, this battle was still an internal strife caused within the Hundred Spirit Sect.
However, Yu Xuanji’s external help was too strong. Therefore, even though Yu Sheng had the geographical advantage, she still lost.
Although the Divine Weapon and Spirit Beast aristocratic families were on the same level, the two sides had only reached a consensus in terms of suppressing martial artists and were not on the same side. The conflict of interests between the two sides had never stopped.
Now that the era had changed, it was not impossible for the spirit beast aristocratic families to lean towards martial artists who were about to rise powerfully because of Han Zhao’s appearance.
After entering the Sect Master’s hall, Han Zhao placed Yu Sheng on the couch.
“Senior Yu, can you hear me?” Han Zhao communicated with Yu Xuanji in Yu Shengs body through a mental connection.
“You’re still calling me senior now?” Yu Xuanji’s cold voice sounded. “I’m used to it.” Han Zhao smiled. “Fellow Daoist Yu, do you need my help?”
“There’s no need. I’ll handle the rest.” Yu Xuanji sighed softly.
“Alright, I’ll protect you.” Han Zhao nodded slightly.
“Thank you… for this.” Yu Xuanji’s voice lowered.
“If you hadn’t risked your life to stop Yu Sheng, I might not have been able to successfully head to the Qian Heaven Palace,” Han Zhao said with a smile. Yu
Xuanji’s crucial help was extremely important to him.
“In the end, I owe you more…” Yu Xuanji sighed.
“With our relationship, there’s no need to be like this,” Han Zhao said seriously.
“You and l…” Yu Xuanji pondered.
“By the way, I almost forgot. Yu Niang has been thinking about you. It’s time to tell her this good news.” Han Zhao changed the topic.
He took out a golden pot and released Yu Niangs soul.
“Sister Xuanji, are you alright?”
As soon as Yu Niangs soul appeared, she said anxiously.
“I’m fine.” Yu Xuanji’s tone revealed a relaxed tone.
“Sister Xuanji,” Yu Niang said nostalgically. Her soul flew into Yu Shengs body.
Buzz!
A faint ice-blue fluorescence suddenly appeared on the surface of Yu Shengs body, blocking Yu Niang..
