As long as the Soaring Lutian Faction was destroyed, the other factions would not dare to kidnap the Sky Devouring Orb. However, if the Soaring Lutian Faction was not destroyed, the other factions would continue to covet the Sky Devouring Orb and kidnap the Sky Devouring Sect disciples to force Wu Yuansi to show himself.
He shook his head and said, "Actually, this is very dangerous. The Sky Devouring Sect is very experienced. Most people know that it is a trap, but they still chose to take the gamble. After all, everyone is going to fight for it."
"Yuansi is still a deterrent. Otherwise, he would not only kidnap the Sky Devouring Sect disciples." Huang Tianyi nodded.
She brushed her hair aside and frowned, showing a sharp aura. She scoffed, "With their character, they would have attacked the Sky Devouring Sect long ago. No matter how strong the Sky Devouring Sect is, they would not be able to stop them."
Even with the Mystic Heart Faction, they would not be able to stop the other factions.
Zhao Lingfeng's face was dark as he said coldly, "Sky Devouring Sect!"
"Let Yuansi handle this," Huang Tianyi said. "Treat it as a test for him as the new faction leader."
Actually, leaving this to Zhao Lingfeng was not a good idea. If he left it to Wu Yuansi, if something happened to the Sky Devouring Sect, Zhao Lingfeng could start anew and not let the Sky Devouring Sect be destroyed.
The kidnapping of the Sky Devouring Sect disciples was only the beginning. It would only get more and more difficult. Wu Yuansi was indeed courageous to take over as the faction leader under such circumstances.
Zhao Lingfeng nodded slowly. "But it has been hard on him."
"A hero only shows his true colors in times of danger. Whether he is a hero or not will depend on this." Huang Tianyi smiled. "If he can get through this, you can leave with peace of mind. We will have nothing to worry about."
Zhao Lingfeng smiled gently and hugged her.
Huang Tianyi leaned against his chest, and warmth flowed between the two of them.

By the time Zhao Lingfeng finished writing the invitations, a long time had passed. He needed to invite too many people to attend the ceremony. Moreover, he had to show his fearless attitude to intimidate others.
After finishing the last stroke, he slowly put down the pen and let out a long sigh. He looked at the pile of invitations with satisfaction. "A total of 100 people, that should be enough."
Huang Tianyi asked, "Even the Sky Wind Sect?"
"Of course, we have to. Otherwise, we will seem petty," Zhao Lingfeng said with a smile. "They are nothing to worry about now!"
Huang Tianyi said, "Xu Ziliang is unscrupulous. He will definitely seize the opportunity to attack."
"Yuan Si won't be able to handle it," Zhao Lingfeng said.
Huang Tianyi pursed her lips and smiled, "You sure are confident in him."
Zhao Lingfeng said, "While I'm here, he should train himself well. Otherwise, when I leave, no one will be in charge."
Huang Tianyi looked at him deeply, "You are still worried."
She was filled with helplessness. Zhao Lingfeng's feelings for the Flying Heaven Sect were too deep, unlike her. Although she was the Sect Leader of the Profound Heart Sect, the Profound Heart Sect was the Profound Heart Sect, and she was her own person. She could draw a clear line between them and was not restricted at all. She would leave if she wanted to, and stay if she wanted to.
Zhao Lingfeng shook his head and said, "Let's watch Yuan Si for now."
As the two of them were talking, footsteps could be heard. Chu Li called out from outside, "Sect Leader."
"Come in!" Zhao Lingfeng said excitedly.
Chu Li strode in and gave a fist salute. "Sect Leader!"
"How is it?" Zhao Lingfeng asked.
Huang Tianyi stared at him too.
Chu Li smiled and said, "I've killed the Sect Leader and the Elder of Inheritance of the Luteng Sect."
"Lu Yiran was killed too?" Zhao Lingfeng asked.
Chu Li smiled and said, "Yes."
"Haha …" Zhao Lingfeng laughed and said loudly, "Wu Yuansi, you're really something!"
As the Sect Leader, Lu Yiran could summon the Enlightened Master's Descent. Once he used it, Yuan Si would not be able to win. However, with Yuan Si's wisdom and skills, he would not give Lu Yiran the chance to summon the Enlightened Master's Descent.
Now it seemed that he was right. Yuan Si was indeed wise and skilled enough to be the Sect Leader.
Chu Li smiled and said, "A little trick. Do you want to destroy another sect?"
The Lu Teng Sect that he had destroyed was a ruthless sect. More importantly, they were extremely hostile towards Celestials. They had already killed many Celestials, so Chu Li wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of them. Of course, when he said that he had destroyed the sect, he didn't mean that he would kill everyone. He just meant that he would kill the Sect Leader and a few Elders. They would lose all of their vitality and would need to hibernate for a while before they could reappear.
Zhao Lingfeng shook his head and said, "Destroying the Luteng Sect is enough. If we do more, it will stimulate everyone to fight for their lives. In a few days, when the news spreads, I will send the disciples to deliver the invitations."

In the early morning, the entire Flying Heaven Faction was decorated with lanterns and streamers.
The disciples of the Flying Heaven Faction were busy greeting the guests. It was very lively.
They were full of vigor. Faced with the arrival of the important figures, they were neither servile nor overbearing. Chu Li's existence gave them endless confidence, and they felt that they could go against the world.
In the Sect Leader's Hall, the bright sunlight illuminated the entire hall.
Zhao Lingfeng, dressed in a green robe, stood by the window with his left hand behind his back and his right hand stroking his beard. He looked out of the window and said slowly, "We invited a hundred people this time, but only fifty-two came."
Chu Li stood behind him. "It seems that everyone is not optimistic about us."
Zhao Lingfeng stroked his beard and sighed. "This is strange."
The Luteng Sect was not a weak sect. It was a big sect that was only slightly inferior to the Flying Heaven Faction. Killing the Sect Leader and a few Elders should be enough to deter the other sects from acting recklessly.
However, this time, only fifty-two out of the hundred sect leaders came. Why did the other forty-eight not come?
They had no grudges against each other, and Wu Yuansi's reputation was like the sun in the sky. If there was a chance to befriend him, how could they let it go? Yet, they chose to avoid him. It was obvious that they had heard some rumors and did not want to be friends with the Flying Heaven Faction.
"Is there another conspiracy?" Chu Li frowned. "Has the Sect Leader heard anything?"
Zhao Lingfeng's expression was solemn. "Not at all. Even the Profound Heart Sect didn't hear anything."
Chu Li scoffed. "If they don't come, then so be it."
"This will make you look shabby," Zhao Lingfeng said. "It will affect your prestige."
Chu Li chuckled. "Prestige is not earned this way."
"… Fine." Zhao Lingfeng scoffed. "Even if they came, they might not have good intentions. You have to be careful. They might take the opportunity to force you to hand over the Heaven Devouring Orb."
Chu Li smiled. "Would they dare to mess around in the Flying Heaven Faction's territory?"
"If they join forces, they might be able to force us to bow down." Zhao Lingfeng shook his head. "We can't kill all the sect leaders, can we? That would be suicidal. They will have nothing to fear. "
"… Don't worry, Sect Leader. I will be careful." Chu Li pondered for a while and nodded slowly.
At that moment, a disciple in green rushed outside. "Sect Leader, Sect Leader Cheng of the Great Dream Sect has come personally!"
"Alright, I will personally go down the mountain to welcome him." Zhao Lingfeng quickly said.
