"I still have some matters to attend to."
After getting to the bottom of the matter, Zhang Xuan left the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion and headed for the Myriad Beasts Hall.
"Sect Leader Qin!"
Elder Qin Yuan heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing Zhang Xuan. He quickly filled Zhang Xuan in on the matter.
Zhang Xuan was not surprised to hear the news from Han Jianqiu. With a frown, he asked, "May I know what your thoughts are, Elder Qin?"
"Since the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion and Starchaser Palace have already formed an alliance, I wonder if our Myriad Beasts Hall can form an alliance with the Seven Star Pavilion.
After a moment of contemplation, Elder Qin Yuan said, "If the sect leader agrees to it, I'll bring you to meet their new sect leader, Liu Yang. I heard that he's a talented young man as well, so I believe that you'll be able to get along well with him."
"Get along well with him?" Zhang Xuan's forehead twitched upon hearing those words.
If they were the same person, they would definitely be able to get along well with him.
Just that, how were they supposed to talk to each other?
"Sect Leader Qin, if you think that it's inappropriate, I'll just turn down this matter."
Elder Qin Yuan looked at Zhang Xuan doubtfully.
"There's no need for that. Let's meet Elder Kui Xiao together. It just so happens that I have something to discuss with you as well," Zhang Xuan replied.
If nothing had happened, it would have been fine for them to continue putting up a facade. However, the Hall of Gods' motives were still unclear, and the Ethereal Hall was unable to discern between good and bad.
So …
It was about time for the matter of him being the head of the four sects to come to light.
However, he was not sure whether the four sects would be able to accept it.
Would the four sects be able to accept it?
"Alright."
Elder Qin Yuan had no idea what was going on, but seeing the grim look on Zhang Xuan's face, the two of them quickly left.
The Greenfate Pavilion, where the Seven Star Pavilion was located, was not too far away. Five minutes later, the two of them arrived at the main hall and met Elder Kui Xiao and the others.
Elder Qin Yuan stepped forward and introduced with a proud look on his face, "This is our new sect leader, Zheng Yang!"
"Young heroes are indeed …"
Elder Kui Xiao looked at Zhang Xuan and nodded in approval.
Initially, he had guessed that the other party might be the same person as his Sect Master, but from the looks of it now, there was no connection at all!
Even their Sect Leader, Liu Yang, was only at Heavenly High Immortal realm at the moment. On the other hand, Zhang Xuan's cultivation had already reached Heavenly High Immortal realm. From the looks of it, it seemed like he could make a breakthrough at any moment now.
"May I know … where is Sect Leader Liu Yang?"
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Elder Qin Yuan frowned.
We've already brought our Sect Leader here, but your Sect Leader still hasn't come out. Aren't you being a little too arrogant?
"We've already sent a message … The Sect Leader should be here soon. Please wait for a moment …"
Elder Kui Xiao said anxiously. He took out his Communication Jade Talisman and tapped on it.
Beside him, Zhang Xuan flicked his wrist and took out a Communication Jade Talisman. Without looking at it, he let it shine brightly.
Evidently, a message had come in.
"Sect Leader Zheng, someone has sent you a message …"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was unwilling to look at the contents of the scroll, Elder Kui Xiao and the others could only smile awkwardly.
"Yeah!"
A wry smile appeared on Zhang Xuan's face. "Elder Kui Xiao, you don't have to worry about me.
"Alright!"
Elder Kui Xiao was wondering what Sect Leader Zheng Yang was up to, so he continued sending the message. Following which, he noticed that Sect Leader Zheng Yang's Communication Jade Talisman was glowing brighter and brighter than before.
Perplexed, he sent two more messages over, and the Communication Jade Talisman in front of him began glowing even more intensely, as if it was resonating with him.
"This …"
Elder Kui Xiao's eyebrows shot up as an ominous premonition surfaced in his heart. He quickly reached out and took the Communication Jade Talisman from Zhang Xuan's palm. Lowering his head to take a look, his body stiffened. He raised his head to look at the young man before him and asked doubtfully, "Sect Leader Zheng Yang?"
"Un." Zhang Xuan nodded.
"This …"
Putong! Elder Kui Xiao nearly fainted on the spot.
If that was the case, then his previous guess was right … This Liu Yang was Zheng Yang?
But why didn't you admit it earlier?
"What's going on?"
Elder Qin Yuan was also taken aback.
"Look at this and you'll understand …"
Elder Kui Xiao passed the jade token over, and Elder Qin Yuan took a look at it before his eyes widened in shock. "Sect Leader, you are … Liu Yang?"
Zhang Xuan nodded.
At this point, there was no point in pretending or hiding. It was better to say it directly.
"…"
The two elders exchanged glances with one another and let out wry smiles.
A moment later, the shock subsided, and their eyes lit up.
"Previously, I was still envious of the fact that the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion and Starchaser Palace shared the same sect leader, allowing them to be so close to one another. I didn't expect that the Wan Shou Faction and the Seven Star Tower would join forces like this … In this way, even if the continent is in chaos, both of our factions can support each other and overcome the difficulties together, so we won't be destroyed! "
Elder Qin Yuan said.
With the current situation, it was impossible for a single sect to contend against them. If the two sects simply cooperated, it wouldn't be of much use.
With the two sects sharing the same sect leader, their orders would be issued by the same person. Even if the Blackmirror Citadel and Evanescent Immortal Sect were to join forces with the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion and Starchaser Palace, they wouldn't have to fear them at all.
Given how skilled their sect leader was in beast taming and battle techniques, how could he possibly lose to a Heavenly True Immortal realm cultivator like Zhang Xuan?
As long as they could surpass Zhang Xuan, it would be hard to tell who would emerge victorious.
Even the Hall of Gods would have to consider this matter carefully.
"Starchaser Palace and Evanescent Immortal Sect share Sect Leader Zhang Xuan while we share Sect Leader Liu Yang … This won't do. I have to spread the news to the rest of the sects right now!"
Elder Kui Xiao said with a smile. He knew that it was better to work together than to go too far.
Once the news spread, it would represent the stance of the two sects. Be it the Hall of Gods or the Ethereal Hall, they would have to consider this matter carefully.
"There's no need to spread the news. Isn't the inauguration ceremony for Starchaser Palace's Sect Leader Zhang Xuan about to begin? If we head over now, the experts of the other sects should be there as well. If we announce it here, it'll be easier to spread the news! "
Elder Qin Yuan said.
The inauguration ceremony of Starchaser Palace was about to begin. Since that was the case, it would be better for their sect leader to announce his identity before the other sects.
"Very well …"
Elder Kui Xiao was just about to say something when a resounding bell chimed, shrouding the entire Starchaser Island.
"It's starting. Let's head over!"
Elder Kui Xiao said as he stood up.
"Un."
Zhang Xuan wanted to explain further, but he knew that he wouldn't be able to do so quickly. Thus, he could only follow behind Elder Kui Xiao and head over to Starchaser Palace.
The inauguration of the new sect leader was a huge crowd in Starchaser Palace. Many of them were curious to see just what kind of person Zhang Xuan, the head of two sects, was.
In the largest square of Starchaser Palace, there was a tall seat at the center of the crowd. Han Jianqiu, the First Elder of Starchaser Palace, and the others were standing around it with bowed bodies.
"I heard that Sect Leader Zhang Xuan has comprehended the Gods' Sword Intent. Even though he's only at Heavenly True Immortal realm, his fighting prowess is on par with Heavenly High Immortals! "
"Indeed. To be able to catch the eye of Sect Leader Han Jianqiu and Palace Master Du Qingyuan, he must possess extraordinary capabilities. Ordinary cultivators like us can't fathom what he's capable of!"
"Let's wait and see. I really want to know if he's really formidable or not …"
…
The crowd lowered their voices in hushed whispers.
Ever since the rise of the Six Sects, this was the first time in several thousand years that a single person had become the sect leader of two sects. As the news spread, Zhang Xuan had become the idol of countless people.
"I would like to see if Sect Leader Zhang Xuan is more outstanding than our Sect Leader Zheng Yang!"
Landing on the square, Elder Qin Yuan chuckled.
"Regardless of whether he's outstanding or not, once our sect leader announces that Zheng Yang and Liu Yang are the same person after the inauguration ceremony, the jaws of countless people will surely drop!"
Elder Kui Xiao said.
Just thinking about the looks of shock on everyone's faces made him unable to contain his joy.
It was time for others to be shocked too.
"If it comes down to it, why don't we have our sect leader fight with Zhang Xuan? I don't think a True Immortal would be a match for him …"
Elder Qin Yuan was just about to continue speaking when he suddenly froze. "Sect Leader, what are you doing?"
Elder Kui Xiao hurriedly turned his gaze over, only to see his sect leader flying straight toward the centermost seat.
"Sect leader, this is someone else's inauguration ceremony, so we mustn't cause any trouble. Otherwise, we'll offend both the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion and Starchaser Palace at the same time!"
Elder Qin Yuan exclaimed anxiously, his soul nearly leaving his body in fright.
He was just a belligerent, and the so-called duel was just a casual remark. Sect leader, you can't be taking it seriously, right? You're actually charging straight toward the centermost seat?
If you really do that, you'll have to face the wrath of both sects. Even though they had nothing to fear from the Seven Star Pavilion, there was no need for you to get into a conflict over such a small matter!
"What should we do?"
Elder Qin Yuan turned to Elder Kui Xiao.
This was no longer just his own sect leader. On top of that, he was the leader of the Seven Star Pavilion!
"Calm down, there's something amiss. Take a look!"
Pavilion Master Kui Xiao was also astonished. However, he knew that his sect leader was not a reckless person, so he wasn't as anxious as Elder Qin Yuan.
Following Pavilion Master Kui Xiao's words, Elder Qin Yuan quickly turned his gaze over, and what he saw left him stunned.
In the midst of his flight, Pavilion Master Kui Xiao's appearance had changed into that of a young man in his early twenties.
Hu!
As soon as the young man landed on the centermost seat, a powerful aura burst into the air. Following which, a calm voice sounded.
"I am Zhang Xuan!"
The young man said. "Of course, you can also address me as Zheng Yang or Liu Yang!"
"Zheng Yang?"
"Liu Yang?"
"The head of the Myriad Beasts Hall and Seven Star Pavilion?"
"He's the head of four sects at the same time?"
In an instant, the surroundings fell so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
