Chapter 2396 - 2399: Renowned Among the Seven Great Immortal Sects!

"What are you doing here?"

Seeing Xuanyuan Ting and the two others standing there at such a late hour, Qin Tian was startled, wondering if something significant had happened.

The three of them, Xuanyuan Ting included, didn't speak, each looking at Qin Tian with a strange expression.

Qin Tian thought to himself that Xuanyuan Ting had attended the Sect Leader's meeting that night; could it be something happened there?

"Sect Leader, what's wrong? Did something happen tonight?"

Qin Tian approached them curiously and asked.

"Hmm."

Xuanyuan Ting replied.

As he spoke, Xuanyuan Shenyue and Wang Tianqing both let out a sigh but still carried expressions of both joy and worry.

"What exactly happened? Your expressions are making me somewhat anxious..."

Qin Tian was utterly at a loss for words.

"Old Seven, you explain,"

Xuanyuan Ting said to Xuanyuan Shenyue.

Xuanyuan Shenyue stepped forward, locked eyes with Qin Tian, and said, "Qin Tian, I'll tell you something. The envoys of the Three Great Immortal Sects have invited you to join them. The formal invitation will be sent to Xuanyuan Immortal Sect in half a month."

When Xuanyuan Shenyue said this, both Xuanyuan Ting and Wang Tianqing watched Qin Tian's reaction. Qin Tian understood why they looked so conflicted—it was because of the invitation from the Three Great Immortal Sects.

Being invited by the Three Great Immortal Sects is a testament to one's strength, boosting Xuanyuan Immortal Sect's reputation. It's a joyous occasion.

But on the other hand, having just represented and made a name for Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, he was now seen as the emblematic figure. Leaving for the Three Great Immortal Sects would set Xuanyuan Immortal Sect back. This was what Xuanyuan Ting and the others were worried about.

After all, an invitation from the Three Great Immortal Sects is not something easily declined.

"What are your thoughts?" Xuanyuan Shenyue asked.

"I'm not sure yet... But I'm interested in Taiqing Immortal Sect."

Qin Tian's words left both Xuanyuan Shenyue and Xuanyuan Ting somewhat disheartened.

"Do you intend to go to Taiqing Immortal Sect then?" Xuanyuan Shenyue asked again.

"We'll see; I'll decide when their invitation arrives."

Seeing their varied expressions, Qin Tian opened up, "Sect Leader, Seventh Young Master, Master, the truth is, even earlier, I've had plans to further my cultivation. I'm sure you've noticed that I've already become the champion of the Seven Sect Tournament, and within the Seven Great Immortal Sects, there's limited room for growth."

"Therefore, I plan to cultivate in the Three Great Immortal Sects. Regardless of where I am, I'll always be a disciple of Xuanyuan Immortal Sect. Whenever needed, I'll uphold the dignity of Xuanyuan Immortal Sect at all costs."

His words brought silence among the three opposite him.

Xuanyuan Shenyue and Wang Tianqing both looked at Xuanyuan Ting.

They knew Qin Tian was leaving, so they awaited Xuanyuan Ting's response.

Though initially disappointed, Xuanyuan Ting softened after a few seconds and said, "You're right. With your current strength, none of the Seven Great Immortal Sects can retain you. You should indeed seek further training in the Three Great Immortal Sects... Qin Tian, if you truly wish to go, I won't stop you. But remember your promise today. Whenever Xuanyuan Immortal Sect needs you, you must lend your support."

"I'll keep this deeply in mind."

Seeing Xuanyuan Ting's gaze, Qin Tian nodded solemnly.

...

Previously, Qin Tian was indecisive about how to broach the subject of leaving, but now, with the Three Great Immortal Sects' invitation, he could leave seamlessly.

Moreover, he had initially intended to go to Taiqing Immortal Sect, and now, their invitation made his decision straightforward.

As for which of the Three Great Immortal Sects is strongest or offers the brightest future, he hasn't dwelled on it.

In his heart, regardless of which sect, he doesn't plan on staying long. His goal is to find his mother, the Daughter of Demon God, Nangong Wushuang.

The Seven Sect Tournament concluded.

Xuanyuan Immortal Sect reaped great rewards in this edition, historically winning the championship.

Qin Tian, initially unknown when arriving at Qiankun Immortal Sect for the tournament, became legendary throughout the Immortal Domain by its end. The tournaments were filled with tales of his conquests!

About his successive defeats of four Senior Disciples from the Seven Great Immortal Sects, akin to the Heavenly God!

Returning to Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, the entire sect celebrated Qin Tian for three days, revering him as the "Senior Brother."

Rising with the tide, Wang Tianqing also regained his position, wielding real power and managing Xuanyuan Immortal Sect affairs. Among Xuanyuan Immortal Sect's three Great Elders—Wang Tianqing, Zhang Xiaolin, Mo Ziyang—it's without question that Wang Tianqing holds greater power and prominence than the other two.

The Seventh Young Master Xuanyuan Shenyue, as anticipated by the Eldest Young Master and Fourth Young Master, was entrusted with significant duties by Xuanyuan Ting.

Qin Tian felt perplexed about why Xuanyuan Ting would entrust Xuanyuan Shenyue after his declared intent to leave. But Qin Tian had little mind for such concerns.

These days, there's been constant noise from his storage bag.

Qin Tian was puzzled—how could a storage bag produce sound?

Upon thoroughly inspecting his storage bags, he found that the noise came from a bell.

It was the bell Yan Lingshuang gifted him upon returning from their training together.

Qin Tian had stashed it in a low-grade storage bag, unaware that it had been continuously ringing these past few days.

"What's going on here?"

Qin Tian examined the bell repeatedly, sensing some mystery.

"Why would she give me a bell?"

"It couldn't have been casually given, could it? Surely not, it should at least be a magic artifact."

"It was quiet before, now it won't stop ringing, what could this mean?"

Curiosity piqued, Qin Tian furrowed his brows: "Could it be that something happened to her?"

With that thought, Qin Tian felt uneasy.

Yan Lingshuang was gravely injured, Qingyun Daoist is her master, and the day Qingyun Daoist was seen meeting with Qin Tian, might she be targeted by Spiritual Spring Immortal Sect?

If Qingyun Daoist is targeted, wouldn't Yan Lingshuang also be in trouble?

That day Ye Qianbai didn't confront Qin Tian and Qingyun Daoist—is there a hidden plot?
