After leaving the depths of the Yan Yun Sect, Xiao Fan and the others walked towards the peak of the Yan Yun Mountain under the guidance of the Sect Master.
Originally, Xiao Fan didn't plan to go because his main purpose was to return the cultivation method he owed the Yan Yun Sect.
Since the matter had been resolved, Xiao Fan didn't need to stay.
However, the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect invited Xiao Fan to attend the ceremony as the most distinguished guest of the Yan Yun Sect. He saw it as a supreme honor for the Yan Yun Sect that Xiao Fan could attend the ceremony.
At the same time, Lin Shan was also eager to try. He wanted to see if there was anyone of the same age as him among the younger generation of the thirty-six Human Sects in Sky Shadow City.
In the end, Xiao Fan stopped and followed the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect to the Yan Yun Mountain to attend the ceremony.
After a while, the group arrived at the peak of the Yan Yun Mountain where the competition would be held.
However, when Xiao Fan and the others arrived at the peak of the Yan Yun Mountain, the thirty-six Human Sects in Sky Shadow City, as well as the various foreign races in Sky Shadow City, including the Shadow Clan, had already arrived.
There was less than a quarter of an hour left before the ceremony officially began.
When they saw Xiao Fan and the others arrive, everyone instantly looked over. Among the countless gazes, there were a hundred that were the coldest, most hostile, and even filled with killing intent.
It was the Shadow Clan!
Among them were Ying Que and Ying Long from the Ying Sky Peak. They were the most distinguished guests of the ceremony. At the same time, their gazes were even colder than the other Shadow Clan members.
"Young Master Xiao, Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect!" When Xiao Fan and the others arrived, no one came forward to greet them. Only Mu Junsu walked over and said calmly to Xiao Fan and the others.
"Young Sect Master, you don't have to call me Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect. I'm just an elder of the Yan Yun Sect!" The Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect looked at everyone and the countless cold gazes around him. His expression was neither servile nor overbearing as he spoke with a smile on his face.
"Oh?"
Mu Junsu turned around and glanced at the sect master when she heard his words. She immediately raised her eyebrows and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
Because the Yan Yun Sect was becoming more and more dilapidated and was about to be destroyed, the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect had been very humble all these years. No matter who he spoke to, he would always lower his voice before speaking. He didn't even dare to speak loudly. He gave off a feeling of being a yes-man and bowing to others.
Therefore, many people from the 36 Human Sects in Sky Shadow City, including many young disciples, looked down on Sect Master Yan Yun. They thought that Sect Master Yan Yun didn't look like a Sect Master at all and could only sneer at him.
But now!
The cowardly Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect seemed to have changed into a different person. His hunched back was now straight and he was in high spirits. His expression was filled with confidence. His words and actions showed that he was the leader of a sect.
Mu Junsu, who had always been meticulous, was stunned by this huge change. She was extremely surprised. It had only been a short while since she last saw him. Why did Sect Master Yan Yun undergo such a huge change?
At the same time, Mu Junsu wasn't the only one who noticed the huge change in the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect. The other Sect Masters of the 36 Human Sects in Sky Shadow City were also the first to notice the change in the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect.
Therefore, they were all stunned. Then, like Mu Junsu, they all looked at the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect in amazement. They couldn't help but wonder.
"This way please!" However, Mu Junsu wasn't an ordinary person after all. After taking a deep look at the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect, she immediately calmed down. She temporarily put aside the question and looked at Xiao Fan, nodded, and said.
Xiao Fan and the others were invited by Mu Junsu. Therefore, Mu Junsu had already prepared seats for Xiao Fan and the others in advance. Only Xiao Fan and the others could take their seats!
However!
"There's no need to trouble Young Sect Master. Young Master Xiao is now an important guest of the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect. Therefore, the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect will welcome Young Master Xiao to the main seat for the ceremony!" The Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect said with a faint smile as he rejected Mu Junsu.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect turned around and led Xiao Fan and the others to the main seat of the ceremony. That was the seat of the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect.
"Hmm?"
When Mu Junsu saw that the Sect Master of Yan Yun had actually dared to reject her, the shock that she had originally suppressed rose once again. After which, she stood on the spot and stared at the backs of the Sect Master of Yan Yun, Xiao Fan and the rest without saying a word!
At this moment!
Not only the Sect Masters of the other sects in Sky Shadow City, but the elders and disciples were also looking at the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect in shock. They couldn't believe their eyes.
This was because they couldn't believe that the humble, cautious, and even cowardly Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect had actually dared to reject Mu Junsu. Furthermore, he had rejected Mu Junsu in front of everyone. He didn't give her any face at all.
If this had happened in the past, it would have been impossible.
"Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect, you …!"
An elder from the Heavenly Star Sect's face instantly changed. He was furious that the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect had actually dared to reject Mu Junsu in front of everyone. Therefore, he immediately stood out and shouted loudly.
However!
Before he could finish his sentence, the black iron bell in the center of the venue suddenly rang automatically. The melodious sound of the bell instantly reverberated through the entire venue and shook the entire Swallow Cloud Mountain.
The competition had begun!
"Hmph!"
Seeing that the competition had already begun, the elder from the Heavenly Star Sect knew that this wasn't the time to act out. Everything had to be carried out as per normal. Therefore, he could only let out a heavy snort and sit down unwillingly. He didn't say anything else.
The other elders and disciples of the Heavenly Star Sect, as well as the elders and disciples from the other sects who supported Mu Junsu, all looked at the Sect Master of Swallow Cloud Sect with cold and angry expressions. Then, they shut their mouths and sat down quietly, waiting for the competition to officially begin!
