"It is rare for you to say such words."
The middle-aged man who had come with Bai Tao was his junior apprentice-brother Wang Pu, a personal disciple of the Sword Sovereign Yue Zhenbei.
Beside the Female Emperor Jie Mingkong and the Southwestern Exalt Bai Tao, he seemed rather inconspicuous.
Still, he was a late Immortal Bridge Martial Saint as he was one of the top few amongst the disciples of the Sword Sovereign's lineage at Northern High Peak's Jade Capital Crag.
While the Southwestern Exalt Bai Tao was the head disciple of the Sword Sovereign, he was stationed in the southwestern Vermillion Heaven Territory all year round as he rarely returned to the central Jun Heaven Territory's Kunlun Mountain.
Therefore, under the Sword Emperor's tutelage, it was usually Wang Pu who helped manage the Jade Capital Crag.
Looking at the black-clothed youth beside him now, he felt rather emotional, "I can count the number of times you have praised others in your decades of entering the lineage."
The black-clothed youth said quietly, "It is because senior apprentice-uncle Yan and junior apprentice-brother Yan are truly powerful."
Looking at Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di, Wang Pu too sighed in admiration, "They are indeed dragons and phoenixes amongst men."
He had originally intended to probe Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di. Thinking back on it now, he could not help but laugh as he shook his head repeatedly.
Seated together with the Southeastern Exalt Cao Jie, the Northeastern Exalt Liu Zhenggu also felt rather emotional, "This old man had originally only acted once for the sake of Bright Connection Hu's descendant, for the sake of my own peace of mind. Never would I have thought that things would actually end up like this."
"When I first saw this youth Yan Zhaoge that year, he had still yet to mature. Yet, in a mere decade or so, he is already able to command the winds and clouds of the World beyond Worlds."
Liu Zhenggu sighed, "Such a youth is truly rare. It is the same for his father."
Cao Jie was slightly dazed, his expression rather complex as he thought of what Yan Zhaoge had told him earlier.
"To tell you the truth, I have already learnt of some things after making a trip to the territories of the Immortal Court."
Thinking of this, Cao Jie felt that it was a pity.
The more outstanding Yan Zhaoge was, the greater the pity he felt.
Looking at Bai Tao, Wang Pu and the others, Cao Jie sighed inwardly, "I can only hope that the Sword Sovereign will have a way."
As compared to the Female Emperor, Wang Pu and the others, the other guests had different thoughts.
Bai Ziming who had interacted with Yan Zhaoge before, hailing from the Floating Gate World and later joining Golden Court Mountain as a guest Elder, felt rather emotional at this moment.
In just over ten short years, Broad Creed Mountain had already become a massive power whose strength even surpassed that of Golden Court Mountain.
The name of the East Peak of the Daoist Sect, which people disapproved of in the past, was gradually showing signs of living up to its name.
Bai Ziming, on the other hand, was still attached to Golden Court Mountain.
They both came from a lower realm, but the difference between them was like heaven and earth.
Over in the Floating Gate World, the Heavy Sun Sect was clearly still the number one power, even having experts supporting them in the World beyond Worlds. Yet, faced with a tiny sect like Towering Wave Pavilion that had just been reestablished, they were extremely respectful, not daring to slight them in the slightest.
The reason for this was none other than the fact that Yan Di's Master, the old Chief of Broad Creed Mountain, Yuan Zhengfeng, had some ties with Towering Wave Pavilion. He had even fallen out with the Heavy Sun Sect because of this.
Because of Broad Creed Mountain, Towering Wave Pavilion was virtually like an emperor emeritus in the Floating Gate World.
The Heavy Sun Sect did not want to be so useless. Still, the problem was that even without Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di making a move, Yuan Zhengfeng who currently stood at the peak of the Seeing Divinity Martial Saint realm and might ascend the Immortal Bridge at any time would be sufficient to sweep through the Heavy Sun Sect of the World beyond Worlds.
The Great Snowy Mountain that Bai Ziming came from naturally did not need to do so. However, as he watched all this, he felt an indescribable feeling.
Now that he knew of Yan Di's origins, Bai Ziming did not feel envious or jealous as he instead felt much more at peace.
When he thought up to here, Bai Ziming couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The Pavilion Lord of the North Sea Sword Pavilion, Gu Hong, and the Chief of the Dim Darkness Sect, Zhou Haosheng, sat side by side.
They were all local powers of the Royal Reed Sea who had survived the great tribulation brought about by Shen Lingzi in the past.
The heavens and earth of the Royal Reed Sea had changed, its ruler had changed.
Their two families, on the other hand, did not have thoughts of resisting like when the Grand Xuan Dynasty had reigned supreme in the past.
It was not because Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain had always been on good terms with them.
Instead, it was because the current Broad Creed Mountain was much, much more powerful than the Grand Xuan Dynasty of the past.
With the gap so great that it surpassed a certain threshold, the other powers of the Royal Reed Sea instead no longer had any other thoughts as they obediently followed Broad Creed Mountain's lead.
It was just that thinking of how the Radiant Light Sect and Copper Men Island who had resisted the Grand Xuan that year had already become history, the two could not help but sigh emotionally.
The Radiant Light Sect that had always been their mortal enemy who had originated from the same source as them no longer existed. Zhou Haosheng and the other Dim Darkness Sect martial practitioners felt this especially deeply.
"Forgive this Gu for speaking out of turn, but regarding the matter of the Dim Radiant Wheel, Chief Zhou should still be more open about it," Gu Hong sent a sound transmission to Zhou Haosheng, saying softly.
Zhou Haosheng smiled bitterly, "Pavilion Lord Gu worries too much. First not mentioning how Golden Court Mountain warned us that obtaining the Dim Radiant Wheel would actually be a curse rather than a blessing, even if this old man wanted to act willfully, how would that be possible at all?"
He sighed, "After experiencing the great tribulation of the past, my Dim Darkness Sect was finally not destroyed. This old man now only wishes to pass down the legacy of our founder, hoping that we can develop and grow stronger one day."
"The Royal Reed Sea is too small. It cannot contain Broad Creed Mountain."
Hearing his words, Gu Hong nodded in deep agreement. Looking at the disciples before him who had passed the test and entered the great hall, preparing to enter Broad Creed Mountain, he sighed, "Today, I shall accept all the heroes under the heavens."
The two exchanged glances, actually both having the same idea.
While this was the first time they were officially accepting disciples for their sect which had always been lacking in manpower, Broad Creed Mountain's test was still strict and comprehensive.
Those who failed the test might not necessarily be unable to grow up.
Many of the representatives of the other powers who had come to Broad Creed Mountain this time were intending to pick up some scraps.
The North Sea Sword Pavilion and the Dim Darkness Sect would naturally not let them off either.
Despite being placed above them by a sect which had not existed in the World beyond Worlds more than ten years ago, Gu Hong and Zhou Haosheng were currently very calm.
Even without today's battle, the various miracles of Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain in the past had already long since convinced them.
In this time's opening ceremony, other than recruiting new disciples, Broad Creed Mountain had also made many internal adjustments which could be considered informing their fellow Daoists of the world.
Those of the older generation gradually retreated from the frontlines, focusing on cultivating in secluded cultivation.
The positions of First Seat Elders of the various important departments of the sect were increasingly taken up by third generation disciples who had already matured.
Those of the younger generation of the past gradually walked to the front of the stage.
Some were sent out to guard a region, gradually beginning to manifest Broad Creed Mountain's momentum of expansion.
This was what many people were concerned about, because they could attempt to judge Broad Creed Mountain's future development from this.
Still, the most eye-catching thing was that while Yan Zhaoge was young, he was already one of the most important figures of Broad Creed Mountain's current core figures. He was not assigned any specific duties within the sect.
While this was rather unexpected, it also seemed to be reasonable.
While Yan Zhaoge was not assigned any duties, no one would doubt that his voice was the most powerful within Broad Creed Mountain.
Not being assigned any duties meant that he would either be cultivating further or moving about freely, remaining outside for a long period of time.
Whichever it was, others would be concerned about it.
Everyone could not help but guess what this youth who had stirred up the winds and clouds of the World beyond Worlds would do next.
