“Senior Brother Xu!”
“Senior Brother Xu has returned to the sect?”
“…”
After returning to the Yuelan Sect, Xu Ning noticed something strange.
As he walked in the sect, there were people constantly greeting him.
Although he was quite famous in the Yuelan Sect, most people only knew his name and did not know his face.
But this time, there were obviously more people who recognized him, and they were all very enthusiastic.
In particular, some disciples who had just entered the sect looked at him with reverence, which confused Xu Ning.
Xu Ning still didn’t know that Si Ying had spread the news of him killing Feng Changge, which had already spread to the Yuelan Sect.
The entire State Jifeng believed that Xu Ning and Si Ying had destroyed the Phantom Blood Sect together.
Although the Phantom Blood Sect was not a top sect in State Jifeng, they still had a peak void realm master, so with that, Xu Ning’s reputation was completely established.
“Junior Brother Xu.”
When Xu Ning was walking towards the main peak, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.
Xu Ning looked over. It was Xie Wenyue who he had not met for a long time.
Xu Ning and Xie Wenyue had gone through thick and thin together in the Demon Beast Scroll, forging a deep friendship.
But because of their own matters, they never saw each other again.
Xu Ning had gone to State Feiyun previously, then he immediately headed to the mystic realm after he returned.
After Xie Wenyue’s aptitude was damaged, she handed over the thunder attribute dao weapon she had obtained to the sect in exchange for her medicinal pills. She then took the initiative to apply to become a deacon. After this while, she had only just returned to the sect to rest.
She only returned to the sect this time because of a summon, and she just so happened to run into Xu Ning.
“Senior Sister Xie.”
After Xu Ning saw Xie Wenyue, it was like a reunion with an old friend.
Xu Ning still remembered the scene of them helping each other in the Demon Beast Scroll.
“Long time no see, you sure are famous in State Jifeng now.”
Xie Wenyue noticed that Xu Ning was still the same as before. He did not feel distant from her because of his strength and reputation. Seeing this, she was very happy.
“Famous in State Jifeng?”
Xu Ning didn’t understand. “When did that happen?”
“The news that you and Si Ying, the number one true disciple of the Thousand Flood Sect, destroyed the Phantom Blood Sect has spread to all the major sects in State Jifeng.”
Xie Wenyue also felt that Xu Ning did not care about reputation at all.
If this kind of honor was given to someone else, they would have lost it long ago, but Xu Ning acted like it was nothing.
“That Si Ying…”
Xu Ning shook his head helplessly. He never cared about this kind of reputation.
He didn’t expect that after coming out of the mystic realm, his name would shake the entire state.
“Let’s not talk about this.”
Xu Ning changed the topic and sensed Xie Wenyue’s strength. “Has Senior Sister recovered to the void realm third stage?”
“Yes.”
Xie Wenyue smiled. “After I received some pills from the sect, I immediately took them. A few days ago, I just returned to the genus realm.”
“If everything goes well, I should be able to return to the qualitative change realm.”
Xie Wenyue’s tone was calm.
Before taking the Desperation Pill, she was in the void realm fifth stage. If her aptitude was not damaged, she would have had the opportunity to break through to the common seal realm by now.
However, although Xie Wenyue felt regretful about this, she was not too deeply obsessed over the loss.
In her opinion, it was already lucky for her to come out of the Demon Beast Scroll alive.
“After experiencing all this, Senior Sister’s state of mind has improved again. If your aptitude recovers, you will definitely advance to the common seal realm.”
Xu Ning smiled.
“After taking the Desperation Pill, how can I recover my aptitude?”
Xie Wenyue shook her head gently, but her emotions were calm.
“Not necessarily.”
Xu Ning took out a porcelain bottle. “Senior Sister, please accept this.”
“This is…”
Xie Wenyue frowned and took it. She knew that it was a pill.
“A pill that can repair the damage to your aptitude.”
Xu Ning replied.
The pills inside were specially refined for Xie Wenyue after Xu Ning advanced his Life Pill Sutra to the eighth level.
This pill could repair the negative effects caused by the Desperation Pill.
In fact, when Xu Ning returned to the sect the last time, he wanted to give this pill to Xie Wenyue, but at that time, Xie Wenyue had already become a deacon and left the base of the sect.
“What?!”
When Xie Wenyue, who had been calm for a long time, heard Xu Ning’s words, her heart started to beat very fast. “This pill can restore my aptitude? Even the senior alchemists in the sect can’t refine a pill that can heal the aftereffects of the Desperation Pill. Where did you get this precious pill?”
If someone else said this, Xie Wenyue would feel that they were lying to her.
But since Xu Ning said this, she completely believed him.
“After you left the mystic realm, I obtained the inheritance of a master alchemist. I specially refined this Spring Supplement Pill for you a few days ago after my alchemy technique improved.”
Xu Ning was quite honest.
If he hadn’t advanced the Life Pill Sutra to the eighth level, he really wouldn’t have been able to refine the Spring Supplement Pill.
Xie Wenyue pursed her lips, clenched the porcelain bottle in her hand, and stared at Xu Ning. “Junior Brother Xu, thank you.”
“You’re too kind, Senior Sister Xie.”
Xu Ning waved his hand. “Rest your mind and focus on your recovery. I hope you can advance to the common seal realm as soon as possible.”
“Alright.”
Xie Wenyue nodded.
“I can’t chat anymore, Senior Sister Xie. I just returned to the sect, so I have to go to the main peak to see my master.”
Xu Ning said.
“Go ahead, it’s more important to see the Sect Master.”
Xie Wenyue did not ask him to stay.
Afterwards, the two bid farewell.
Xie Wenyue’s eyes were gentle as she looked at Xu Ning’s back. A faint smile appeared on her face.
…
Not only was Wenyue’s state of mind not affected, but her realm had also improved. Seeing this, Xu Ning felt relieved.
After handing the pill to Xie Wenyue, Xu Ning felt that he had accomplished yet another task he had been wanting to do.
‘Master should be in the sect now…’
Xu Ning thought to himself.
After arriving at the main peak, he asked the disciples serving at the Sect Master’s Peak.
The answer he got was that Mi Xingye had gone to find Elder Yuan Cheng. He would come back later, and he had asked Xu Ning to wait for him.
At the same time, the disciple also told Xu Ning that there were two important figures on the Sect Master’s Peak, who were apparently elders of the previous generation.
When Xu Ning heard this, he guessed that the previous elders must have come out of seclusion because of outsiders in the Endless Abyss.
Xu Ning walked up the main peak.
Soon, he saw two old men, one fat and one skinny, sitting under the shade of a tree, holding a chess piece and playing chess.
After Xu Ning came up, the two of them stopped what they were doing at the same time and turned their heads to look at Xu Ning.
“Junior Xu Ning greets the two elders.”
Xu Ning also greeted them as a disciple.
The Yuelan Sect did not have grand elders so strictly speaking, these two previous generation elders did not have a position in the Yuelan Sect.
“So you are Xu Ning.”
When the fat elder saw this, he chuckled and threw the chess piece in his hand onto the chessboard, disrupting the chess pieces.
The skinny elder glanced at the chessboard and frowned. He stared at the fat elder, seemingly a little annoyed.
But in the end, the skinny elder didn’t say anything. He turned his head and looked at Xu Ning with a kind expression.
‘They are both half-step dao realm masters…’
Xu Ning had already noticed the strength of these two people. ‘Just like Sect Master Feng Xiu said, a top sect like the Yuelan Sect don’t only have the strength they show on the surface.’
“You are not even 30 years old, but you are already a true domain realm martial artist.”
The skinny elder stroked his beard.
“I’m 21 years old this year.”
Xu Ning had been in this world for nearly three years.
“Oh…”
The skinny elder pretended to be calm, but the force exerted from his hand caused him to pull out some strands of beard.
“Good aptitude, there is hope for the dao realm.”
The skinny elder muttered encouragingly.
The fat elder sneered and glanced at the skinny elder. “Stop pretending. When you were 21 years old, you probably just entered the void realm.”
“Xu Ning, with your aptitude, you can definitely get into the dao realm. If you go to State Wansheng, you will definitely have the opportunity to stand firm and become a big shot.”
The fat elder praised him straightforwardly.
“Thank you for your praises, elders…”
Xu Ning felt that the interaction between the two was quite interesting.
Afterwards, the two asked Xu Ning some questions.
After learning that Xu Ning was not only a true domain realm martial artist, but had also mastered four secret techniques, they were shocked again.
Without a doubt, Xu Ning was the most talented person ever since the Yuelan Sect was established.
“Xu Ning is back?”
Mi Xingye and Elder Yuan Cheng returned at the same time.
“Master, Elder Yuan Cheng.”
Xu Ning greeted again.
“Killing Feng Changge and destroying the Phantom Blood Sect. You are bringing glory to the Yuelan Sect!”
Before Mi Xingye could speak, Elder Yuan Cheng spoke first.
Elder Yuan Cheng was a little jealous.
If it weren’t for Mi Xingye, Xu Ning would have been his disciple.
If he knew that Xu Ning would perform so well, he would have snatched Xu Ning away from the Sect Master back then, even if it meant falling out with him.
“Xu Ning, have you met the two elders?”
When Mi Xingye saw Xu Ning, he was happy, but his expression was tense.
“Yes.”
Xu Ning responded.
“This is Elder Qiu Renshan.”
Mi Xingye introduced the skinny elder.
“And this is Elder Du Yuan.”
Mi Xingye introduced the fat elder.
Mi Xingye and Elder Yuancheng were also respectful towards the two previous generation elders.
“We have discussed with those old guys about the Thousand Flood Sect. The matter of the two sects joining forces has been completely finalized.”
Qiu Renshan did not hide these secrets from Xu Ning.
“That’s good.”
Mi Xingye nodded. “In this case, should we go to State Feiyun and finalize the details of the alliance between the three states?”
As long as the Yuelan Sect and the Thousand Flood Sect had the same attitude, the matter of State Jifeng joining the three states was finalized.
“No need.”
Elder Du Yuan waved his hand. “We have already agreed with the Source Sect on this matter. We are just waiting to unify State Jifeng.”
“Thank you for your efforts, two elders.”
Mi Xingye smiled.
After these two came out of seclusion, he felt relieved as the Sect Master.
“When we communicated with the Source Sect, we received new information.”
Elder Qiushan said, “The people from State Wansheng came to the seventeen states of the Abyss North for two reasons. The first reason is to find a person called Old Man Wan Ye, and the second reason is to find a treasure called the Demon Beast Scroll.”
‘Demon Beast Scroll?’
Hearing this, Xu Ning’s pupils contracted.
