The chariots of Mount Li and Pingdu Sect quickly arrived at the edge of Heaven Peak. Zhi Yi, who was waiting on the platform, led a group of disciples to welcome them.
At this time, the sunset glow spread down from the distant horizon. The fire was wrapped in gold, and the sky was dyed red.
All of them were cultivators, so they noticed a trace of unusualness with a single glance. They saw a strand of crimson red drifting within the rays of light, yet it merely persisted for a few breaths of time before swiftly dispersing, and it caused them to wonder if they were seeing things.
A few highly skilled Daoists did not shift their gazes away. After a while, the clouds parted and a huge jade altar floated in the sky. It slowly moved towards the direction of Tianyue.
A Daoren turned his head and said to a fellow disciple beside him, "The chariot of the Bloodsoul Sect's Sect Master Su has arrived. I still have two sect masters here to greet, so I'll have to trouble Junior Brother to greet this one on my behalf."
The Daoist agreed and called out. Dozens of disciples, including Lu Zhipei, followed him through the formation door and came to another platform on Heaven Peak.
Not long after, the large jade altar was sent by Heaven Peak's restrictions, and it landed on the platform.
The jade altar's restrictive light was released, and a handsome young Daoist with jade-like skin and dressed in a crimson black robe walked out. It was the Blood Soul Sect's Sect Master, Su Muqing. Although he was a member of the Spirit Sect, his surroundings were filled with celestial music and spiritual light. Not only did he not have the slightest smell of blood, he even seemed like a celestial being.
Lu Zhipei looked at this person, and his heart was filled with a faint sense of excitement.
Ninety thousand years later, this person and the two previous sect masters only existed in legends. With his status, he could not come into contact with such people, but now he was right in front of him.
The leading Daoist waited for the people of the Bloodsoul Sect to come down from the altar before bowing and saying a few words. Then, he made an inviting gesture, and the Bloodsoul Sect cultivators followed him through the formation door, heading towards the sect's encampment.
Just as Lu Zhipei was about to follow, a fellow disciple with the surname Zheng walked over and stopped him, saying, "Senior Brother Yao, Uncle-Master needs to welcome Sect Leader Su, so he can't leave for the time being. Just Now, after receiving the documents, there will be a few small sects arriving. Uncle-Master said that you'll be in charge of welcoming them."
Lu Zhipei knew that the original owner of this body could only be considered average, but he was willing to work hard without complaint. It just so happened that the disciples who came this time were all unfamiliar with him, so they intentionally or unintentionally gave him many arduous and unrewarding tasks to do.
However, he wished for nothing more than to stay further away from his fellow disciples so as to avoid being seen through. Moreover, being able to come into contact with the various sects was exactly what he desired at the moment. Thus, he said, "Junior Brother, don't worry. Leave this place to me."
Fellow disciple surnamed Zheng smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Senior Brother. I know that Senior Brother likes wine. Just Now, Uncle-Master has given me a jar of spirit wine from Sect Leader Su. I'll treat Senior Brother to a drink some other day."
Lu Zhipei did not expect this. It was already good enough that he could survive this calamity, so he did not dare to hope for anything else. However, after knowing that he actually liked wine, he had to put on a happy expression so that the other party would not see through him.
After a while, the sky gradually darkened. Countless fluorescent lights floated above the mountain, and for a moment, bright light flickered everywhere, shining with the river of stars that spanned across the sky.
Although it was already night, there were still sects of various sizes arriving one after another. Because Lu Zhipei had made sufficient preparations in advance and had the help of experienced deacons, he did not make any mistakes.
When dawn arrived, the Pengyuan Sect that he was waiting for also arrived.
Although he had been here for an entire night to welcome and send them off, as a cultivator, he did not feel tired. Instead, after knowing that the sect had arrived, his spirit was lifted.
However, at this time, the Uncle-Master that he had not seen for an entire night appeared with a group of disciples.
Compared to the many large sects, the Pengyuan Sect could be said to be inconspicuous. However, after all, it was from the Nine Continents and was also a lower sect of the Qincang School like the Yao Yin Sect. Therefore, the deacon elder had no choice but to personally come out to welcome them.
It was just that the welcoming sects could make friends with quite a few handsome peers, and those who were in charge of escorting them could also obtain quite a few good things. Everyone was naturally very willing, but a small sect like Peng Yuan could not take out such a large sum of money. Therefore, after sending the cultivators of the Pengyuan Sect to the encampment, not many were willing to pay attention to them.
One could not blame these disciples for being snobbish. Most of these people were here for the rewards and cultivation resources. Just Now, they were here to be the deacons. If there were no benefits, they would rather hide in the sect and cultivate.
When Lu Zhipei saw this, he was secretly happy. Since everyone was not here, he could build a relationship with the Pengyuan Sect. No matter what, this was a way out. If other places did not work, then this would be a life-saving straw.
However, after spending less than half a day with the disciples of the Pengyuan Sect, he felt that the entire sect was filled with a sense of lethargy. It was very different from the flourishing appearance of the other sects. He thought to himself, No wonder 90,000 years later, even though Pengyuan was ranked as a large sect, it was still at the bottom. At the same time, it was also strange. How did such a sect escape this unforeseen event? Could it be that the rumors were not true?
Thinking of this, he could not sit still anymore. Just as he was about to find an excuse to leave, a voice sounded, "Senior Brother, so you're here. It took me a long time to find you!"
Lu Zhipei took a look and saw that it was his fellow disciple surnamed Zheng. He said, "Junior Brother, why are you here again?"
Fellow disciple surnamed Zheng said apologetically, "Senior Brother, I came here because I have something to trouble you with."
Lu Zhipei said, "Junior Brother, what are you talking about? If there's anything, just say it."
Fellow disciple surnamed Zheng said gratefully, "Just Now, two loose cultivators have come from the Yuhuan Heavens. They clearly don't belong to any sect, but they are very arrogant. They asked all sorts of questions the moment they arrived and even stretched out their hands to ask for a lot of good things. However, they are guests from afar, and as the host, we can't treat them badly. It's just that Uncle-Master has called me over to do something, so I really can't take care of them. I can only ask Senior Brother to take my place."
"Yuhuan Heavens? Loose cultivators? "
Lu Zhipei's heart tightened. He wanted to refuse, but Fellow disciple surnamed Zheng did not give him a chance to refuse. After he finished speaking, he immediately stuffed the talisman into his hand and left in a hurry.
Lu Zhipei had no choice but to summon a dozen servants and maidservants. Then, he turned the talisman and opened the array door. When he stepped through, he found himself in front of a cave. This was an extremely remote corner, deserted and deserted. There were not many people coming and going. His fellow disciple surnamed Zheng must have deliberately arranged for him to stay here.
He calmed his mind and came to the door. He lightly knocked on the jade latch and said, "Fellow Daoists, I am in charge of this place. If you need anything, please tell me. "
After a while, a bone-chilling voice came from inside. "We have nothing to disturb you. We still have homework to do, so you may leave."
Lu Zhipei's heart relaxed slightly. As far as he knew, this incident had something to do with the cultivators of the Yuhuan Heavens. Maybe the person inside had participated in it. It was better not to meet him.
He immediately left with his people and returned to the place where his fellow disciples were discussing matters. However, it was empty and he could not help but be surprised. He found a steward to ask and found out that the people of the Hundred Nations of the Eastern Wilderness had arrived. Because these people came from various vassal states, many people were sent to greet them.
He thought for a while. The Hundred Nations of the Eastern Wilderness should be the Eastern Wilderness Sect 90,000 years later. However, they had long abandoned the path of Mystic cultivators. They specialized in Qi Dao. These people and the demon cultivators of the Hundred South Sea Continent did not need too much attention. Because in this incident, the disciples of these two sects suffered the most casualties, so there was no need to pay too much attention to them.
Soon, another two days passed. Anatta Temple, Clear Feather Sect, Yuan Shen Sect, and other sects also arrived one after another.
Seeing this, Lu Zhipei wanted to find the official disciple of Anatta Temple and build a relationship with him. However, these were all large sects, so there were people from the same sect who went up to take care of matters. It was not his turn.
Just as he was thinking about how to go up to them, an opportunity was placed in front of him.
He occasionally learned that there was a disciple of Anatta Temple who was very difficult to talk to. He was very picky about everything. A few stewards who dealt with him could not stand his temper. However, this person had a high status in Anatta Temple. It was said that he was an elite in the sect, so it was not good to ignore him.
After hearing this, Lu Zhipei's heart shook. He thought that this person was very likely to be the person he was looking for, so he volunteered.
Seeing him like this, the steward elder was deeply gratified. He said pleasantly, "Ever since you arrived, I have seen everything that you have done. Although you did not receive any benefits, the sect cannot mistreat a diligent disciple like you. When we return, I will naturally record this merit for you."
Lu Zhipei showed a look of gratitude and said, "Thank you, Uncle-Master."
After he got the talisman, he passed through the array door and came to the door of another cave. At this moment, he heard a voice coming from inside, "What tea is this? Not to mention the lack of spirituality in the leaves, even the water used to make the tea is not Tianlin. Is this how the steward and steward do things? "
He hurriedly walked in. He saw a Daoist in a neat robe sitting on the couch. His hair was tied up with a golden crown. He had red lips and white teeth. He had a handsome face and a steward Daoist was smiling at him. The servants and servants on both sides did not dare to raise their heads.
Lu Zhipei went forward and bowed, "Daoist friend, please do not blame me. If there is anything wrong, I will apologize first."
The young Daoist looked over and said, "Who are you?" Before Lu Zhipei could speak, he waved his sleeve, "You are unaccountably solicitous. You are definitely not a good person. Get out! Don't come and talk to me. "
Lu Zhipei finally understood why the others in front of him could not stand this person. He took a breath and said seriously, "Daoist friend, why do you say that? I am Tianyue's steward, and now I am in charge of the secular affairs here. It is my duty to ask about this matter, not to curry favor with you."
The young Daoist snorted and said, "Don't lie to me. The stewards in front of me are not willing to stay here for long, but you insist on coming here. One look and I can see that you have an ulterior motive. I hate people like you the most."
Lu Zhipei listened to his words. Although he was not moved on the surface, he was angry in his heart. What was more angry was that the other party was right. He did come with an ulterior motive.
He tried to ease the atmosphere again, but it was useless. No matter what they did, the other party would find fault with them. Moreover, what they said was reasonable and not without reason. It was as if this person had the ability to see through the truth.
After half a day, he could not take it anymore and could only retreat in a sorry state. But when he thought of the young Daoist's face of disdain, he was also very depressed. He sighed, "Forget it, it seems that this path is not going to work. I can only think of a way from Shaoqing. Shaoqing is one of the top sects and can be said to have strict rules. I think the disciples in the sect should not have such a temper."
