Even the Central Heaven Gate...
As soon as he arrived, he asked for the best cave abode without waiting for the master, the Hunyuan Immortal Sect's arrangements. This also caused some mighty figures to be dissatisfied.
The Central Heaven Gate was indeed very strong.
However, this kind of strength appeared with the Nine Heavens Universe as its foundation.
Not to mention that everyone was of the same Dao, did you really think that the Central Heaven Gate could be independent of the Nine Heavens Universe just because you asked to be superior?
Fortunately, the people of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect were all very good-tempered. Not only did they not refuse, they even invited the Central Heaven Gate's joint elders in as quickly as possible.
"Central Heaven Gate, what a grand display …" The Primordial Immortal Sect's sect leader, who was standing in the dark, smiled. "I'm afraid those who don't understand will think that Supreme Wood is going to succeed as the sect leader of the Primordial Immortal Sect."
When the elders beside him heard this, they immediately smiled and said, "Sect Leader, this is a good thing. After this, our Hunyuan Immortal Sect's reputation will definitely rise by a level. One of the two clouds, the Three Pristine Dao Sect, will be completely suppressed!"
"Heh, you're thinking too simply." The sect leader sneered and said, "The Three Pristine Dao Sect seems to have fallen because of the fall of the Three Pristine Dao Physique, but in reality …"
The elders were somewhat bewildered.
"Sect Leader, in reality?"
Recalling the old monster who had the same status as the sect leader, the sect leader could not help but shiver.
"In reality, the person who truly controlled the fate of the Three Pristine Dao Sect was never the Three Pristine Dao Physique …"
As he said that, the sect leader's gaze also fell on the people who came to attend the meeting in front of the Three Pristine Dao Sect.
Of course, the person who came could not be that old monster.
The six elders of the Three Pristine Dao Sect looked rather silent and did not like to communicate with their fellow daoists. They just sat quietly in an inconspicuous place.
"Moreover, the Three Pristine Dao Sect dared to go to Xian Hong Mountain …" Thinking of the major event that happened hundreds of years ago, the sect leader's heart turned even colder. "Where did that old monster get his confidence from?"
Where there were people, there was the pugilistic world.
Everyone struggled in this pugilistic world, scheming against each other, not for anything else, but for benefits.
Choosing the best cave abode for Lord Lu Qing was where the benefits lay.
The joint elders of the Central Heaven Gate knew very well that these actions would not allow them to obtain any substantial rewards …
But subconsciously, they were very sure that doing this was much better than not doing it.
The best Immortal's Cave in the station was barely satisfactory. The elders reluctantly went out for a walk and found that this Immortal's Cave was indeed the best, so they could only reluctantly accept it.
"Haha, I'm just worried that Lord Lu Qing won't even come in …"
"Very likely."
"He might just be showing his face in the grand meeting, but this will definitely be the most important moment of the grand meeting!"
"Let's do it this way then. Regardless of whether Milord enters or not, we just need to do it, just in case."
"That's not important. What's important is … how much did you find out about the strange things that Sir mentioned?"
"We're still gathering information about the other three Heavenly Gates. As for the Southern Heavenly Gate, will there be any?"
"Let's ask the Hunyuan Immortal Sect."
…
"Strange things?"
When the elders of the Central Heaven Sect came to visit, only the sect leader of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect was qualified to welcome them.
But hearing this question, the Sect Leader could only look at Mu Zun with a dumbfounded expression.
"Elder Mu Zun, you've been in the Southern Heaven Gate for a long time. Have you heard of any strange things?"
Mu Zun asked doubtfully, "May I ask everyone, how should we understand the word 'strange'?"
"It's those things that happened, but you can't understand them."
The co-elder of the Central Heaven Gate who said this had a calm expression, but his heart was filled with admiration for Lu Qing.
Because Lu Qing had refreshed his understanding of the word 'strange'.
Hearing this, Mu Zun was stunned for a long time before he understood what the other party meant, but it also made him even more confused.
"The things that I can't understand are the strange things …"
There was nothing wrong with this sentence.
However, it was precisely because there was nothing wrong with it that Mu Zun didn't know how to respond.
"About the strange things, this …" After being in a daze for a long time, Mu Zun finally spoke in shame, "Everyone, please forgive me. The Old Man really didn't encounter anything … Oh, there is one."
"Hurry up and speak!"
"Sigh, speaking of this matter, it's my sect's misfortune." Mu Zun sighed, "My sect's elder, Tyranny, died in the Bliss Mountain that belongs to the Spiritual Mountain …"
Before he finished speaking, the Sect Leader frowned and interrupted him with a smile, "I believe everyone has already heard that this matter was purely an accident. Tyranny's death was caused by the breaking of the Golden Bridge. The Buddhist Ancestor of the Spiritual Mountain personally investigated it. It is said that it was caused by that master's golden body being eroded by the evil energy of the Lost Soul Stream for countless years."
"In that case …" The elders pondered for a while, then shook their heads and said, "This matter is very important. During this period of time, you should search for more strange things like this. I'd rather miss it than let it go."
Mu Zun immediately accepted the order, then asked in surprise, "I wonder what all of you are here for. If you can be more specific, I believe …"
"What we're talking about is something you can know." An elder smiled, "This gathering is an important matter for you. Do it well. As for the other matters, leave them to others."
Regarding this matter, Mu Zun did not pay too much attention to it. Instead, he wholeheartedly devoted himself to the matters of the gathering.
Other than that, the only thing that remained in his heart was Chu Mo, who was still in seclusion within the Ancient Heavenly Stairway.
"Can you still refuse this time …"
Smiling, Mu Zun couldn't help but think of the Western Heaven Gate's Joint Elder, Yu Lan. He sighed to himself that this person was cunning.
After bidding farewell to the Hunyuan Immortal Sect Leader, the Joint Elder of the Central Heaven Gate called the Joint Elders of the Four Great Heavenly Sects together.
Other than the aftermath of the great victory in the Burning Sun Valley — the matter of Mu Zun being conferred the title of Great Elder, there was another matter that required their cooperation.
"How are your preparations for the Ancient Heavenly Stairway trial?"
"We're almost done with our preparations. As for how much earlier, we'll probably know after the gathering ends."
"This matter will definitely cause some ripples, especially for those geniuses who have no hope of winning the trial."
"Heh, what can they do? If they dare to stab us, we'll cripple them! "
"No, this matter is mainly to appease them. If it causes resentment everywhere, who wants to try Lord Lu Qing's anger?"
… ….
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The next morning, the dao bell in the Hunyuan Immortal Sect's encampment rang 108 times.
The bell stopped ringing. The auspicious time had arrived, and the gathering had begun.
Hearing the deafening sound of the bell from afar, Chu Mo seemed to hear the voice that announced his fate.
He turned around to look at the big shot who was in seclusion and smiled bitterly. Then, he sighed and walked out of the Ancient Heavenly Stairway Tower. He walked toward the encampment that he hadn't been to in a long time.
"Are you really not going to help him?"
"I'm not familiar with him …"
"I've already called him big shot, and I've already knelt. How is this not familiar?"
"Do you think I'm like you?"
"Are you questioning my ability to take in underlings?"
"No, I'm saying that I'm not as resourceful as you are."
"That's more like it … But what you said was right!"
"What?"
"Just reject him directly. What's the big deal?"
"Great minds think alike."
…
After a somewhat vulgar discussion, Xie Tian closed his eyes and went into seclusion again.
At the same time …
"This little bastard!"
Lu Qing, who had finally found Xie Tian, stood in the void and cursed while gritting his teeth.
