For experts like Xiao Lingyu and Qing Xuan to leave the sect temporarily, they would have to inform the sect first, and then the sect master, Qing Pingzi, would make the decision.
When Qing Pingzi heard that Xiao Lingyu and Qing Xuan were going to leave together for a period of time, he naturally agreed to it. He even thought to himself, 'These two are progressing at a fast pace!'
Whether it was Xiao Lingyu, Qing Xuan, or a great grandmaster like Elder Peng, they did not need to wait in line to use the teleportation array.
It was not just the Devil World and the Immortal World. Experts had special privileges everywhere in the cultivation world, even in the secular world.
Even though they didn't need to line up, and even though they had to continuously teleport, it still took them two hundred years to reach the place that Elder Peng had pointed to.
"This continent is called the Firesource Continent. It's the territory of the Fire Sect."
After walking out of the teleportation array, Elder Peng explained as he walked out of the teleportation array plaza. "There's a fire pool on the Firesource Continent, and there's a sacrificial altar in the middle of the fire pool. That sacrificial altar is our target location."
"The sacrificial altar should be controlled by the Fire Sect, right?" Qing Xuan asked.
"Of course. Almost everything on the Firesource Continent is controlled by the Fire Sect." Elder Peng nodded.
"I heard that Elder Peng has some history with the Fire Sect. Will the Fire Sect lend us the sacrificial altar this time? "Qing Xuan asked worriedly.
On the way here, Qing Xuan already knew that Elder Peng was going to give his Divine Fire to Xiao Lingyu.
"There is some history. My Divine Fire was actually obtained on the Firesource Continent, and it was snatched right under the noses of the Fire Sect's experts."
Elder Peng continued, "In the beginning, they kept sending people to kill me in the Immortal World, but after I refined the Divine Fire and became a great grandmaster, they stopped doing anything to me. Now that I'm here to discuss it with them, maybe they'll give me some face."
"What if they don't give you face?" Qing Xuan continued to ask.
"Hehe, Little Sister Qing Xuan should know that the Celestial Sovereigns of the Celestial World owe me favors. If I have any requests, they will definitely be happy to help." Elder Peng smiled confidently.
Indeed, for a Martial Grandmaster like Elder Peng, any great power would do everything in their power to curry favor with him. Very few would not give him face. No cultivator or power would casually provoke a Martial Grandmaster because many experts in the Immortal Plane owed a favour to a Martial Grandmaster. At any rate, even experts needed magic treasures. Sometimes, magic treasures would be damaged during battles.
Elder Peng was very familiar with the Firesource Continent, and he arrived at the headquarters of the Fire Sect with great familiarity. Then, he presented his name card and requested to meet with the Fire Sect Master.
The current Sect Master of the Fire Sect was called Yi Xiao 'zi. He was tall and sturdy, with crimson hair and a crimson beard, thick lips, thick brows, and large eyes. He gave off a rough and unrestrained feeling.
Yi Xiao Zi was a peak late-stage Immortal Emperor and could be considered one of the few experts in the Immortal World. Only the late-stage Immortal Emperors of the Sword Sect could defeat him.
Yi Xiao 'zi's thick brows knit together when he received Elder Peng's name card, and he said, "This old fellow still has the face to come to the Firesource Continent!"
Yi Xiao 'zi's junior brother, Yi Hao' zi, said, "He's a Martial Grandmaster now. His status is very different from when he came to steal the Divine Flame. We can't be too careless."
Yi Xiao 'zi's other junior brothers nodded in agreement and reminded their Sect Master not to be impulsive.
"Hmph! So what if he's a Martial Grandmaster? "
Yi Xiao 'zi slapped his own thigh, and then he stood up and said, "Everyone, come with me to meet this old geezer who was once a thief and is now a grandmaster!"
Yi Xiao 'zi led his six junior brothers out of the Fire Sect's headquarters. When he saw Elder Peng and the others, he said, "What's wrong? Have you come to return the Divine Flame, Martial Grandmaster?"
Xiao Lingyu and Qing Xuan frowned when they heard Yi Xiao 'zi's unpleasant tone. They knew that things wouldn't go smoothly.
"Greetings, fellow Daoists of the Fire Sect." Elder Peng bowed slightly and cupped his fists.
Xiao Lingyu and Qing Xuan naturally bowed as well. Apart from Yi Xiao 'zi, all the other experts of the Fire Sect returned the greeting with a smile.
Yi Xiao 'zi waved his sleeve and asked impatiently, "Old fellow, you don't have to be so polite. You stole our Divine Flame last time. What are you going to steal this time?"
The other experts of the Fire Sect shook their heads when they heard Yi Xiao 'zi. They secretly thought that their Sect Master was good in every way except for his temper and bluntness.
Elder Peng naturally knew Yi Xiao 'zi's temperament, so he didn't change his expression and said with a smile, "I'm here to apologize for stealing the Divine Flame and to borrow your sect's Sacrificial Flame Altar."
Yi Xiao snorted coldly and said, "You took the Divine Flame with your own ability. There's no need for you to apologize. Your apology will only make things difficult for us. As for borrowing the Sacrificial Flame Altar, I can tell you clearly that it's impossible. If you have the ability, you can seize the Sacrificial Flame Altar like last time."
"Hehe, Brother Yi Xiao, there's no need to be so harsh. If you have any conditions, you can mention them." Elder Peng still had a pleasant expression.
Elder Peng knew that Yi Xiao wasn't an evil person, nor was he a scheming person. He only resented Elder Peng because Elder Peng had stolen the Divine Flame. If this happened to someone else, they would also resent Elder Peng.
"There's nothing to talk about. We respect you as a Martial Grandmaster with many Immortal Venerables backing you. We won't pursue the matter of you stealing the Divine Flame. However, it's better if you don't come to the Firesource Continent in the future. Although our Fire Sect doesn't have a Martial Grandmaster, we don't need to ask anyone for help in refining tools." Yi Xiao bluntly refused.
"I can refine a Fire Divine Tool for your Fire Sect." Elder Peng said calmly.
The experts of the Fire Sect were a little tempted. After all, it was a Fire Divine Tool. Naturally, all the experts of the Fire Sect wanted it, but they didn't dare to speak up.
"Unless you can refine eight or ten Fire Divine Tools for us, perhaps I will consider it." Yi Xiao said indifferently.
"Hmph! What do you think a Divine Tool is? That you can refine eight or ten of them as you wish? "
Elder Peng's patience seemed to have been worn out. Ever since he became a Weapon Refining Grandmaster, this was the first time he spoke to someone in such a manner. After his expression turned cold, he said, "I originally didn't want to use my position to bully you, but if Brother Yi Xiao doesn't give me any face, this old man will have to shamelessly ask two Immortal Venerables for help!"
Apart from Yi Xiao, the expressions of the experts of the Fire Sect changed drastically. They knew very well that Elder Peng wasn't boasting. Elder Peng indeed had the ability to ask Immortal Venerables.
Even though the Fire Sect was a first-rate aristocratic family in the Immortal World and its overall strength was much stronger than the Nan Hua Immortal Sect, it still didn't have the ability to ignore Immortal Venerables. After all, the experts of the Fire Sect were in the immortal realm, and Immortal Venerables were already god-level existences.
"If you have the ability, then ask Immortal Venerables to destroy my Fire Sect!" Yi Xiao said fearlessly.
Although Immortal Venerables were strong, there was a rule in the Immortal World that Immortal Venerables couldn't casually interfere in the grievances of others, let alone kill cultivators of the Immortal World.
If the Fire Sect resisted wholeheartedly, even if Immortal Venerables came, it would probably be very difficult.
After all, the Fire Sect was a first-rate sect in the Immortal World with many experts and great influence. Immortal Venerables definitely wouldn't kill the entire sect.
Elder Peng was so angry that his body trembled. He realized that Immortal Venerables might not be of any help, so he didn't ask Immortal Venerables for help when he came. But now that he was stuck here, he had to do something.
"Elder Peng, wait a moment. Let me talk."
Seeing that Elder Peng was about to turn and leave as if he was really going to ask Immortal Venerables, Xiao Lingyu stopped him.
After calming Elder Peng down, Xiao Lingyu took a step forward and said to Yi Xiao, "I've heard that the Fire Sect is righteous, and that you repay kindness with kindness and resentment with resentment. I wonder if it's true?"
"Of course!" Yi Xiao replied proudly.
"Then the Fire Sect owes me a big favor. I wonder if you can return it now?" Xiao Lingyu said with a faint smile.
"Who are you? When did my Fire Sect owe you a favor? "Yi Xiao asked with a puzzled expression.
"There should be a disciple called Luo Zhe in the Fire Sect. Sect Master, you'll know once you ask him," Xiao Lingyu said confidently.
"Oh? Then please wait a moment. I'll send someone to ask him now. "
Yi Xiao replied to Xiao Lingyu, and then he turned around and said to his Junior Brothers behind him, "Whose disciple is Luo Zhe?"
Everyone pondered for a moment before Yi Xiao Lingyu suddenly reminded. "Sect Master, isn't Luo Zhe your favorite grand disciple?"
Yi Xiao was stunned when he heard this, and then he slapped himself on the forehead and said, "Right, Luo Zhe is my grand disciple! It's all that old geezer's fault for making me so angry that I even forgot about this! "
Xiao Lingyu's group of three and the members of the Fire Sect were speechless, and they said in their hearts, Yi Xiao is really too careless.
It wasn't long before Luo Zhe was asked to come out, and he said with surprise when he saw Xiao Lingyu, "Brother Xiao, why did you …"
Slap!
Before Luo Zhe could finish speaking, Yi Xiao slapped the back of Luo Zhe's head and cursed furiously. "Little Bastard, his cultivation is countless levels higher than yours, yet you actually dare to call him brother? You're too unruly!"
Luo Zhe staggered from the slap, and he had a depressed expression on his face. He silently retreated to the back and didn't dare speak another word.
"Little Bastard, this Fellow Daoist said that our Fire Sect owes him a favor, and he even said that you know about it. Tell us the whole story!" said Yi Xiao.
"Err … Our Fire Sect really does owe Brother Xiao … Oh, no, Senior Xiao a favor."
Luo Zhe hurriedly changed the way he addressed Xiao Lingyu when he heard his Martial Ancestor address Xiao Lingyu as Fellow Daoist, and then he told Yi Xiao about how Xiao Lingyu had helped the disciples of the Fire Sect in that independent space.
Luo Zhe had agreed to that favor on behalf of the Fire Sect. Even though it could be considered as a courtesy, Xiao Lingyu had indeed helped the disciples of the Fire Sect. Moreover, Luo Zhe had admitted it now. So, Yi Xiao who cared a lot about his reputation and was a very loyal person naturally had to admit that the Fire Sect owed Xiao Lingyu a favor in front of so many people.
"Fellow Daoist, Yi Xiao Lingyu thanks you on behalf of the Fire Sect for lending a hand in that independent space."
