Elder Di said, "Tang Xian, you've just returned and aren't familiar with many things. Listen more and speak less in this Hundred Lineages Meet. Don't make a fool of yourself and let the other sects look down on our Repose Palace."
"Hmph, if I don't say anything when the time comes, there probably won't be a Repose Palace anymore," Tang Xian said calmly.
Elder Di frowned and said, "Tang Xian, what do you mean?" As he said that, the matter around him started to move at an accelerated speed. He activated the tier seven Divine level ability, and time accelerated.
However, Tang Xian did not say anything. Instead, he asked Fang Xingjian for instructions through his martial will, "It's fine if I teach him a lesson, right?"
"No problem, but don't beat him to death. I still have to get close to Venerable Master Zhai Xing during the Hundred Lineages Meeting."
With a move, Tang Xian activated Time Stillness. He struck out with his palm, and surging martial will gushed out like a great river, impacting the few Elders.
In the blink of an eye, several Elders were engulfed by the power. Time flowed again. Before they could react, the conjured bodies of Elder Di and the others had already been destroyed.
Elder Di and the others moved out while bellowing furiously. As they reassembled, they kept on moving through space to avoid the remnant martial will.
"Time Stop?"
"Tier eight of the Divine level!"
"Senior Brother Tang has reached tier eight of the Divine level!"
Hearing the cheers from the surrounding disciples, Elder Di slowly stood up. However, he no longer dared to bring up the matter of making a move. Instead, he looked at Tang Xian with a surprised and doubtful expression. "Good, good, good. Tang Xian, I didn't expect you to have stepped into tier eight of the Divine level. "However, be it tier six of the Divine level or tier eight of the Divine level, the general trend of the world won't change. The hundred sects will converge and create the Gate of Destinies. This is a great plan for the world, and anyone who wishes to stop it will be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. You're on your own."
Upon seeing Elder Di and the others leave, the surrounding disciples cheered and sent Tang Xian back to the Repose Palace.
Over the next few days, he and Huang Shan would occasionally guide the various disciples and summon the remaining experts and seniors in the sect. In just a few days' time, he had already gained control over most of the Repose Palace. Surrounded by the masses, he seemed to have the disposition of the Repose Palace's Palace Master.
As for Elder Di and the others, after they were defeated, they never appeared again. No one knew where they went.
As for Fang Xingjian, after he arrived, he stayed in the guest room and did not do anything else. He only appeared again on the day of the Hundred Lineages Meet.
The day of the Hundred Lineages Meet finally arrived. Therefore, Tang Xian, Huang Shan, Zhao Hao, and Fang Xingjian brought along Ning Chongxiao and over ten other disciples from the Repose Palace to head to the Flying Celestial Sect's Flying Celestial Valley to participate in the Hundred Lineages Meet.
Just as he arrived in the sky above the Flying Celestial Valley, he saw auspicious clouds covering the sky and layers of colorful divine light surrounding it. It was a scene of birds chirping and flowers fragrant.
In the sky above a radius of 50 kilometers, there were colorful lights flashing by from time to time. They were all immortal sects that had come to participate in the Hundred Sects Meet.
From afar, there was indeed the aura of a myriad of immortals paying homage to them. It made the many disciples in the Repose Palace feel even more oppressed.
Tang Xian led everyone to the entrance of the valley. Very soon, they were welcomed by attendants and arrived at a public square.
There were people coming and going in the public square, and there were jade tables and chairs everywhere. The tables were filled with delicacies.
Seeing that there were Divine level experts, who were rarely seen, everywhere, and even top-notch characters at tier six of the Divine level and above, the many disciples in the Repose Palace gasped. They felt that the Flying Celestial Sect's Venerable Master Zhai Xing was getting increasingly unfathomable.
However, not long after Tang Xian entered, he saw Elder Di walking over with a white-clothed young man. The Venerable Master Zhai Xing appeared unfriendly, but there was a hint of pride in his eyes.
Tang Xian looked at the two of them, frowned, and said, "Elder Di."
"Tang Xian, you've come at the right time. This is the Flying Celestial Sect's True Lord Dongxu. After the Hundred Lineages Meet, he'll be in charge of receiving our Repose Palace. You should get to know him well." As Elder Di spoke, he sent a voice transmission, "Tang Xian, after the Hundred Lineages Meet, the various sects in the world will be managed by the Flying Celestial Sect's four True Lords. In the future, he'll be your superior. Don't make any more mistakes and implicate the entire Repose Palace."
The Flying Celestial Sect had the Venerable Master Zhai Xing as their leader, and under him were the four True Lords. All of them were tier eight Divine level experts, and each of them was a legendary character in the higher realm's immortal sects.
Looking at Elder Di's smug gaze, Tang Xian smiled coldly and replied, "Do you think that you'll be able to get back at them just because you've found a backer? Childish. "
With that, he left without even looking at Perfected Lord Insightful. After all, in Tang Xian's eyes, with Fang Xingjian's arrival, all the cultivators in the Flying Celestial Sect were already dead people. There was nothing more to say.
Looking at the departing Tang Xian, True Lord Dongxu's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in them.
Elder Di was secretly delighted, but he said, "This Tang Xian has been disrespectful to his elders ever since he joined the sect. Now that he's at tier eight of the Divine level, he's even more arrogant and condescending. He'll probably cause trouble for the meet today."
True Lord Dongxu smiled softly and threw a glance at Elder Di, causing the latter's heart to tremble.
"Now that he's in our Flying Celestial Sect, he'll have to lie down even if he's a tiger or a dragon. It's not his place to act impudently. "However, I'll personally investigate what this Tang Xian is up to. If someone wishes to use me as a tool …"
"I wouldn't dare to," Elder Di immediately said.
Tang Xian and the others had just taken a few steps when they encountered the Hundred Rivers Sect's Gong Yuyan and the others.
Gong Yuyan looked at Tang Xian and immediately cupped her hands. "Greetings, Senior."
News of Tang Xian's return, his attaining tier eight of the Divine level, and him leading the Repose Palace had spread throughout the higher realm. Gong Yuyan naturally knew about it as well.
The moment she saw Tang Xian, she sent a voice transmission, "Senior Tang, after the meet, the four True Lords will officially lead the various sects in the world. With the Flying Celestial Sect and Venerable Master Zhai Xing's personal endorsement, there's probably no one in the world who will be able to object. This is already an irresistible trend. It's best not to offend the few True Lords if possible. "
Tang Xian smiled. "It's fine. They won't be able to do anything to me."
"Oh?" Gong Yuyan looked at Tang Xian's confident expression and was slightly surprised. A hint of brilliance flashed in Tang Xian's eyes.
While Tang Xian was interacting with the cultivators from the various sects, Fang Xingjian quietly came to a corner of the venue and stood before a young man.
The young man appeared young, but his eyes were filled with the vicissitudes of life. He sat in the corner and watched the changes in the venue, appearing as if he had seen through the mortal world.
He looked at Fang Xingjian, who had walked up to him, and asked, "Do we know each other?"
"Of course." The other party did not recognize him, but Fang Xingjian was able to see through this young man's background with his high-dimensional vision.
Fang Xingjian said, "Second Prince, it's been a long time."
The young man before him was the Empire's Second Prince. He had said that he would be going into seclusion over a year ago but had not appeared since.
