Yun Zhankong was an outstanding figure in the Flying Cloud Sect. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ascended to the position of Flying Cloud Sect's Sect Master.
His destiny was as high as a one-star Yellow Fate, and he was destined to be a Enlightened Master. Moreover, because of his hard work in cultivation, he was already a two-star Enlightened Master.
In the Flying Cloud Sect, he was a proud son of heaven when he was young. When he grew older, he became a sect master and could be said to be peerless in his generation.
However, this peerless in his generation was limited to the Flying Cloud Sect!
As the saying went, there was always a taller mountain. Yun Zhankong was a proud son of heaven in the Flying Cloud Sect, a sect master who led an era. However, in the entire Azure Cloud Mountain Range's southern six sects, he was somewhat behind others.
No matter if it was when he was young or when he grew older, Lu Tianyuan was always like a mountain that pressed down on him.
This mountain didn't look that tall because Lu Tianyuan's cultivation was always the same as his. Moreover, their final achievements were the same. Two-star Enlightened Master, a sect master!
If the gap between the two was too big, Lu Tianyuan would be like an unsurpassable mountain to him, and Yun Zhankong might be convinced.
However, the two of them were very close, which made Yun Zhankong always have hope to surpass Lu Tianyuan and prove himself.
Just like that, year after year, from when he was young until now, Yun Zhankong challenged Lu Tianyuan many times.
Every time he challenged, Yun Zhankong would end in failure. He had never won a single time, and he had never even achieved a tie.
This kind of failure that seemed to be close and made people want to chase, but no matter how hard they chased, it was the most torturous to the mind. Yun Zhankong's failure under Lu Tianyuan's hands made him angrier and angrier, and it became more and more unbearable.
Under the torment of his mind for a long time, he developed a mental barrier!
He wanted to win!
No matter what, whether it was scheming or using unscrupulous means, he just wanted to beat Lu Tianyuan!
No matter from which aspect, he wanted to beat Lu Tianyuan and then ruthlessly slap Lu Tianyuan's face. Only then would his mind be at ease.
In the Star Continent, strength was revered.
In the beginning, Yun Zhankong only wanted to surpass Lu Tianyuan in terms of personal strength.
However, after failing time and time again and knowing that he could never surpass Lu Tianyuan, a mental barrier formed in his heart, which was why he wanted to prove himself in other aspects.
Last time at the Spirit Moon Sect's Three Sect Gathering, the Flying Cloud Sect had placed second and the Falling Star Sect had placed third. This result made Yun Zhankong incomparably happy. He finally felt the joy of surpassing Lu Tianyuan.
However, this was not enough!
This was far from enough!
The demonic barrier in Yun Zhan's heart was too deep. What he wanted was far more than this.
After the feeling of defeating Lu Tianyuan the first time, he wanted to do it a second time. Furthermore, he wanted this feeling to be even stronger and more profound!
At that time, he had a plan. Five years later, at the Falling Star Sect's Three Sects Gathering, he was going to show up and slap the Falling Star Sect in the face. He was going to make the Falling Star Sect fall to last place again and humiliate the Falling Star Sect!
This feeling was ten times more intense and profound than when he had defeated the Falling Star Sect in the Spirit Moon Sect!
He had been preparing for five years. Today, seeing that he had succeeded and that the eldest disciple of the Falling Star Sect, Ma Ren, had been defeated, the anger that he had been suppressing in his heart finally burst out completely. Therefore, he laughed frivolously, proudly, and somewhat hysterically.
Laughing madly, he viciously humiliated Lu Tianyuan. His laughter was extremely grating to Lu Tianyuan's ears.
Lu Tianyuan gritted his teeth and was extremely furious.
However, at the Three Sects Gathering, Yun Zhan had defeated the Falling Star Sect's disciple according to the rules agreed upon by the Three Sects. This filled him with anger, but he had nowhere to vent it, so he could only forcefully endure it!
The more embarrassed Lu Tianyuan was, the happier and prouder Yun Zhankong was, the more frivolous and arrogant he was!
However, Ye Xing's loud shout came from afar, causing Yun Zhankong's laughter to stop. It also caused everyone from the Three Sects to be surprised as they looked over in unison.
Ye Xing was in the Starry Hall. After cultivating the Middle Grade Falling Star Incantation to the sixth level, he left the Starry Hall with the Starry Token and appeared outside the Starry Valley.
After Ye Xing entered the Starry Valley, he did not come out for nearly five months. The people of the Falling Star Sect all thought that he had died. The disciples guarding outside the Starry Valley were scared half to death.
After learning from the disciples guarding the Starry Valley that today was actually the day of the Three Sects Gathering, Ye Xing went straight to the Inner Court Square.
Unfortunately, he arrived a little late. While he was still far away, he saw the scene of Ma Ren being defeated by the Flying Cloud Sect's disciple. He executed the Sky Bat Steps and sped up.
Seeing the Flying Cloud Sect's Sect Master laughing so arrogantly and humiliating the Falling Star Sect in his words, Ye Xing, as a member of the Falling Star Sect, was also enraged. How could he allow Yun Zhankong to continue being arrogant in the Falling Star Sect? He shouted from afar and interrupted Yun Zhankong's complacent laughter.
At this moment, all the martial artists of the Three Sects looked over at Ye Xing. The martial artists of the Spirit Moon Sect and Flying Cloud Sect were stunned. They did not know who Ye Xing was. Even the Falling Star Sect's Head Disciple, Ma Ren, was defeated, yet he still had such courage. Could it be that he was stronger than Ma Ren?
However, if that was the case, then the Falling Star Sect's Head Disciple should not be Ma Ren, but him, Ye Xing!
The martial artists of the Flying Cloud Sect and Spirit Moon Sect did not know Ye Xing. The Three Sects Gathering was a competition between the most elite core disciples, so they only inquired about the top ten core disciples of the Falling Star Sect.
When Ye Xing entered the Falling Star Secret Realm, he was only an Inner Court disciple. Although he defeated the core disciple, Ma Ji, he was still far from the top ten core disciples. Moreover, after he entered the Falling Star Secret Realm, he never came out again. Naturally, the Flying Cloud Sect and Spirit Moon Sect did not pay attention to Ye Xing.
They were very puzzled by Ye Xing's appearance.
However, there was a Perfected Person Elder in the Spirit Moon Sect. After hearing Ye Xing's name, her expression changed slightly.
Perfected Person Yan Yue had heard her disciple, Wei Qingxuan, talk about a youth called Ye Xing many times. She said that although his destiny was very low, he had surpassed many geniuses. Therefore, when Perfected Person Yan Yue heard Ye Xing's identity, she had some reaction.
Wei Qingxuan had been taken away by King Lanqin long ago, but Perfected Person Yan Yue had a very deep impression of this disciple whom she had only taught for a few months. Therefore, when Wei Qingxuan mentioned Ye Xing, she also remembered it in her heart.
However, when Perfected Person Yan Yue saw Ye Xing, she quickly rejected the idea that the Ye Xing in front of her was the Ye Xing that Wei Qingxuan had mentioned.
"The Ye Xing that Qingxuan mentioned has the same cultivation as her. More than half a year ago, he was only a seventh-level martial artist and a two-star destiny. However, this Ye Xing is a five-star Martial Saint. Even with Qingxuan's aptitude, it would be difficult for her to increase her cultivation at such a speed. Since the Ye Xing that she mentioned has such a low destiny, even if he is a martial arts genius, I'm afraid that he hasn't become a Martial Saint yet!"
Perfected Person Yan Yue thought to herself.
Compared to the surprise of the martial artists of the Spirit Moon Sect and the Flying Cloud Sect, the martial artists of the Falling Star Sect were obviously more shocked.
Ye Xing had not appeared after entering the Falling Star Secret Territory. Everyone in the Falling Star Sect had publicly acknowledged that Ye Xing had died.
Now that nearly five months had passed, how could … Ye Xing suddenly appear again?
Where did he come from?
The Sect Master, the Elders, the Deacons, and the disciples were all petrified when they saw Ye Xing quickly approaching from afar. Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
A person who was thought to be dead suddenly appeared in front of them. This kind of impact was indeed too great. Even the Astral Realm Sages were stunned at this moment.
Ye Xing flew to the pavilion where the Falling Star Sect was located. He cupped his fists and bowed to Lu Tianyuan and the other elders. "Sect Master, Elders, disciple Ye Xing was trapped in the Falling Star Secret Territory. Today, I finally came out!"
Looking at Ye Xing's figure in front of them and hearing Ye Xing's voice, the Falling Star Sect recovered from their dreamlike state.
The shock in Lu Tianyuan's eyes did not diminish, but he was overjoyed. According to the description of the core disciples, when Ye Xing was still a four-star Martial Saint in the Falling Star Secret Territory, he had defeated two six-star Martial Saints, Qi Jingyang and Li Yuanqing.
Now, Ye Xing's cultivation had broken through again. He was already a five-star Martial Saint. Did that mean that there was hope for him to fight with a seven-star Martial Saint?
Although the gap between a five-star Martial Saint and a seven-star Martial Saint was bigger than the gap between a four-star Martial Saint and a six-star Martial Saint, Ye Xing's appearance undoubtedly gave them more hope in despair at this moment.
As for the Sect Master's wife, Hua Tianshu, after recovering from her shock, a gloomy aura flashed in her eyes.
This little bastard, he actually did not die! He actually did not die?! Killing intent instantly rose in Hua Tianshu's heart.
