"HAHA …!"
Amidst the endless void, a huge Battle Ark sped forward.
Lin Fan stood there, looking down at the world and laughing maniacally.
"The world outside is the Young Master's world!"
Ever since he came out of the sect, Lin Fan had never been more excited. He had even gotten his Grandmaster's ark!
After settling his matters at Jiuxiao Sect, Lin Fan was prepared to roam around with the ark.
To Lin Fan, the speed of the ark was extremely fast. In fact, it was way faster than all the arks he had been on in the past. In the blink of an eye, it was already 10 miles away.
But he did not know the principles behind the ark. If he could, Lin Fan wouldn't mind building his own ark.
Lin Fan looked ahead. Once he was at Jiuxiao Sect, he would look for the Supreme Being Token Shard and that old dog Seven Saint's forbidden grounds.
...
Jiuxiao Sect …
In the past month, Jiuxiao Sect had been in a state of depression. Some of the disciples had lost all hope for the future.
The Grandmaster was dead.
Even the Senior Elder was dead.
The once number one sect in the far west had fallen completely.
Some of the disciples had left Jiuxiao Sect. They did not know where their future lay and wanted to head out to look for a new one.
Some of the disciples swore to stay by Xinfeng's side, working hard to rebuild Jiuxiao Sect.
"Senior Brother, the Grandmaster Ascension Ceremony is about to begin." Feng Xiaoling was a little worried. Even though the future of Jiuxiao Sect might be rough, he believed that his Senior Brother would definitely lead Jiuxiao Sect back onto the path of glory.
"Yes." Xinfeng nodded his head. The sect could not be without a leader. With such a heavy burden on Xinfeng's shoulders, he found it hard to breathe.
Feng Xiaoling looked at his Senior Brother. There were some words he wanted to say, but he was hesitant. "Senior Brother, given the current situation, there's no need to hold the Grandmaster Ascension Ceremony. According to the reports from the scouts, there are many sects with ulterior motives."
Xinfeng looked into the distance. That sharp aura of his had changed.
"Junior Brother, even though Jiuxiao Sect has fallen, we're still a big sect. We can't cancel the ascension ceremony. As for those other sects, we'll have to face them sooner or later. Let them come then." Xinfeng replied sternly.
"But Senior Brother, with Senior Brother Lin's relationship with you, if Glory Sect were to come forth to support us, perhaps …" This was what Feng Xiaoling had been thinking about.
Xinfeng shook his head, "Junior Brother, you must remember this. Jiuxiao Sect owes Glory Sect way too much. Way too much."
Feng Xiaoling did not know what to say. Eventually, he could only nod his head. He knew what his Senior Brother was thinking, and he could understand why his Senior Brother wanted to do this. But the situation right now was not good …
"How are the people from the various sects?" Xinfeng asked.
"They are arriving one after another."
...
At the entrance of Jiuxiao Sect …
The Jiuxiao Sect disciples were bustling about, welcoming one sect after another. All the major sects of the far west had arrived.
"Senior Brother, I'm a little nervous," a disciple standing at the entrance said nervously.
This was the first time he had experienced such a situation. But Jiuxiao Sect was no longer the same as it was in the past.
"Don't be nervous, Junior Brother. Just bring out our aura." Another disciple said.
Just then, a group of people appeared at the entrance of Jiuxiao Sect.
"The Grandmaster of Red Cloud Sect has brought all the disciples here to congratulate our new Grandmaster on his ascension to the throne. Our gift is … a 10 Year Cinnabar Fruit." The disciple who was in charge of welcoming the various sects reported the moment he received the gifts.
But the moment he saw the gift, his heart skipped a beat.
This was not a congratulatory gift, but a humiliation.
The moment the Jiuxiao Sect disciples gathered at the entrance heard the contents of the report, their faces turned extremely ugly. 10 Year Cinnabar Fruit? This was an absolute humiliation!
"Why? Is this how the Jiuxiao Sect treats their guests? We've already congratulated them and given them a gift. Are you going to make us stand at the entrance? "The Grandmaster of Red Cloud Sect replied in displeasure.
As for the disciples of Red Cloud Sect, they began to grumble as well.
"Hmph! Still so arrogant even at this stage?"
"Is Jiuxiao Sect still so full of themselves? We've already given them enough face by coming here."
"Do you think that the gift is too little? This 10 Year Cinnabar Fruit is the biggest gift our Grandmaster has ever given to a small sect!"
...
The moment the Jiuxiao Sect disciples heard these insults, their hearts burned with rage. Since when had Jiuxiao Sect ever suffered such humiliation? None of these sects had ever dared to say such words.
But thinking of the current state of Jiuxiao Sect, these disciples gripped their fists tightly and swallowed their anger.
"Grandmaster Hu, please come in." One of the geniuses of Jiuxiao Sect came out to welcome them.
"Yes." The Grandmaster of Red Cloud Sect nodded his head, "You sure know how to conduct yourself."
That genius disciple smiled bitterly. Since when would any of these Grandmasters dare to be so insolent?
There were a total of 38 sects that had come, and the Red Cloud Sect was the last one.
Outside the Ascension Hall, the various sects sat in their seats as the 38 Grandmasters conversed. They did not even bother to lower their voices, as though they were afraid that Jiuxiao Sect would not be able to hear them.
"Grandmaster Yang, what did you give?"
"A box of Mortal Jewels."
"Grandmaster Yang is generous indeed. I gave a 10 Year Cinnabar Fruit."
"HAHA! Grandmaster Hu, you're being a little stingy, aren't you? My box of jewels is enough to buy your 2 Cinnabar Fruits!"
"Hehe, I'm not stingy at all, Grandmaster Hu. The 10 Year Cinnabar Fruit is good stuff. Since I'm poor, I might as well give you some gold."
...
As the various Grandmasters conversed, the Jiuxiao Sect disciples around them looked extremely terrible.
It was as though they were slaps on their faces, causing them to feel heartache.
To think that the once great sect of the far west would have fallen to such a state.
They knew that these people were not here with good intentions. They were definitely not here just to congratulate them.
Right now, Jiuxiao Sect was like a piece of meat on a chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.
Greater celestial powerful beings …
In the past, Jiuxiao Sect had as many greater celestials as the hairs on a cow. But now, there wasn't even a single one of them. How ironic was this? In fact, they couldn't even compare to a small sect.
Looking at the insufferably arrogant faces of the various Grandmasters, the Jiuxiao Sect disciples' hearts were burning with rage.
What was even more infuriating was the fact that these disciples of other sects were pointing fingers at them, as though they had no respect for them at all.
These disciples did not have a high cultivation base. Killing them was as easy as squashing an ant. But the reason why they dared to jump on their heads was because there were no more powerful beings in Jiuxiao Sect right now.
If the Grandmaster and Elders were still around, none of these sects would dare to be this insolent.
