The distance from Shaoyang City to Mt. Saintess Mother was not close, but fortunately, there was a transport ship, so it was much faster than flying. Along the way, Yi Tian saw many cultivators flying under the guidance of the female attendants of the Cha Nu Sect.
Every time they arrived at a sentry post, they would have to check their identities to prevent meddlesome people from sneaking in.
The transport ship was led by Hong Luanxin, and wherever they went, they would let them pass. Compared to the cultivators of the Immortal Sword Sect, the people of the Cha Nu Sect gave them enough respect.
However, Yi Tian found that after Hong Luanjing learned his name, her attitude had changed greatly. She even took advantage of the time to take out a jade token and send out a few messages.
He guessed that this matter had a lot to do with him, but at this time, Yi Tian didn't panic. He wanted to come to the Cha Nu Sect to help Hong Luanjing explain, and the person in front of him was definitely a relative.
Now was not a good time to communicate, so he sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes to rest. He would wait until they reached Mt. Saintess City.
After half a day, the flying ship arrived at the spaceport a hundred kilometers away from Mt. Saintess Mother. The four people walked out of the flying ship under Hong Luanxin's guidance. On the platform of the spaceport, there were two bull carriages waiting. Hong Luanxin arranged for Yin Jie and the others to get on the first carriage, and then she sat down.
Yi Tian was left alone. Then Hong Luanxin poked her head out of the window and said, "Brother Yi, please sit in the carriage at the back."
Seeing this, Yi Tian just smiled and walked to the bull carriage at the back. After opening the door, he saw a person wearing a cloak waiting for him inside.
Helplessly shaking his head, he directly stepped on the ladder and went in. Then the two coachmen on the two carriages shook their whips and began to drive towards Mt. Saintess City.
The bull carriage was engraved with different inscriptions that could block the Spiritual Sense of outside cultivators. Yi Tian saw that the person opposite him didn't seem to have any intention of speaking, so he could only smile and say, "Fellow Daoist Hong, we haven't seen each other for a few years. I hope you've been well. In any case, you've also benefited from the artifact refining matter. Now, you've even surpassed Crimson Flame."
Suddenly, a tender voice was heard. "You've caused Senior Sister Hong to be in such a miserable state, yet you still have the face to come here." After saying this, she pulled off her cloak, revealing a delicate and pretty face.
At first, Yi Tian was stunned. He turned around and saw that it was Yan Zhaoxue, the main character of the Selection Ceremony. Then, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. "I say, great aunt, what are you playing at? If others see this, they will skin me alive."
Yan Zhaoxue smiled gently and said, "It's fine. The array formation of this carriage can isolate all spiritual sense from prying. Moreover, I've already told the two carriage drivers to split up. We'll take a shortcut to Our Lady of Saints City."
Yi Tian turned his head and looked out of the carriage. Indeed, he couldn't see Hong Luanxin's bull carriage. He guessed that they had already parted ways.
After returning to his senses, Yi Tian helplessly said, "Actually, forty years ago, I received a message from you asking me to intervene in the Selection Ceremony. However, you can rest assured that I've already talked to Dugu Ao. When the time comes, I will help him smoothly get out of the competition.
Moreover, I've also talked to Yin Jie of the Immortal Sword Sect. When the time comes, he will help you stir up the situation. At the end of the Selection Ceremony, there will be no suitable candidates. "
Yan Zhaoxue hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's not talk about these things. I want to ask you a question. After you cultivate the 'True Fire of Mercury', don't you have any reaction to it? "After saying this, she stretched out her ten fingers and lightly tapped them. In an instant, a wisp of blue flame appeared.
At this moment, Yi Tian, who was originally sitting upright, suddenly felt that the True Fire of Mercury in his Dantian was being pulled by the wisp of flame in front of him. It started to become restless.
After hastily circulating his Qi to suppress the restlessness in his body, Yi Tian calmly said, "There is no reaction at all. Maybe it has something to do with my Cultivation Technique."
Yan Zhaoxue suspiciously said, "Then let me see a wisp of your True Fire."
Being urged by her, Yi Tian had no choice but to reluctantly take out a wisp of the Mysterious Purple Sun Flame and place it on his ten fingers. After the wisp of Purple Thunder Flame was released, it was clear that it had a mutual reaction with the True Fire of Mercury. However, the blue flame was cold, causing the surrounding temperature to drop by a lot. It was clear that it was very strong.
As for the purple flame, it was in harmony with Yin and Yang. Although it looked neither hot nor hot, it was definitely several times stronger than the blue flame.
After Yan Zhaoxue carefully looked at it, her eyes suddenly turned red. She then put away the spell and said, "This time when you go in, you must pass. I will be waiting for you at the end."
After saying that, he took out a red invitation card, wrote Yi Tian's name on it, and handed it over.
After receiving the invitation card, Yi Tian scanned it with his Divine Sense. After reading it, he did not find any problems. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will help you settle this marriage banquet. I have basically understood the situation of all the opponents that are a threat."
"Are you certain that you can suppress them?" Yan Zhaoxue asked.
"When we came, Yin Jie told me that only Huo Yunbiao from the Heavenly Demon Sect is strong. However, he is from the Central State's Li Fire Sect, so he should not be involved in this mess." Yi Tian sorted out his thoughts and continued, "Instead, you should help me keep an eye on the Central State's Thousand Spirit Sect's Gu Shi Du and Wisdom Temple's Monk Hui Yuan. I have a feeling that these two people will not be easy to deal with."
Yan Zhaoxue smiled sweetly after hearing this and said, "These three are all Central State cultivators. Even if they win, they should not stay in the Western Wilderness. Instead, I am very interested in your background."
This was the first time he had been asked about his background so directly. Previously, Yi Tian had used the excuse of being a wandering cultivator from an aristocratic family as an excuse. However, after seeing Yan Zhaoxue's expression, he could only vaguely say, "My sect has some connections with Crimson Flame and Huo Yunbiao."
After hearing this, Yan Zhaoxue's interest was piqued and she directly asked, "Could it be that you are also from the Central State's Li Fire Sect, Qiankun Imperial Fire Sect, or even the Glorious Sun Sect's disciple?"
Yi Tian shook his head with a smile and said, "I am from Dong Ao Chiyang School. After the sect split, it has been in decline for a long time. The original sect was the Profound Sun Sect, which is of the same origin as the three Central State sects you just mentioned. However, that was a matter of a thousand years ago. "
Seeing Yi Tian's desolate expression when he mentioned his sect, Yan Zhaoxue said disapprovingly, "Actually, you do not have to be discouraged. Who knows, those people might have been stuck in their ways, causing the sect to split. You have to know the principle that after being separated for a long time, one must come back together, and after being united for a long time, one must come back apart. Who knows, you might be able to reunite them in your hands."
Nodding his head, Yi Tian said with a firm look in his eyes, "It's like this. I originally came to the Western Wilderness to avoid being hunted down by my enemies, but now that everything has been settled, I can return to Dong Ao to reunite the sect after going to the Saber and Sword Dominion."
Yan Zhaoxue, who was by the side, also softly echoed, "You can do it. I hope you can still remember what you experienced in the Western Wilderness when you return."
"That's for sure. How could I forget the friends who went on adventures with me?"
Not long after, the entire car entered the Goddess Mother City, which was fifty miles away from the center of the Goddess Mother Mountain. The entire Goddess Mother City was the main place where the Beauty Sect operated on a daily basis. However, there were not many people on the streets. Yi Tian could see a palace in the city from afar. There was a line of people lined up outside the palace, as if they were waiting for something.
Yan Zhaoxue pointed to the line and said, "Jin Dan cultivators who want to participate in the marriage banquet need to take a strength test if they do not have an invitation. This line of people is the cultivators who are waiting in line."
After counting the number of people, there were dozens of people. It seemed that the marriage banquet of the Beauty Sect was really a siege. Those who were invited in were desperately trying to be eliminated, while the cultivators outside were breaking their heads to squeeze in.
