In the backyard of the Cha Nu Sect, Yan Zhaoxue and Yi Tian were entertaining Bei Ming Kongjing.
In fact, Bei Ming Kongjing had only arrived a few hours earlier. It just so happened that today's banquet had just begun, so the moment he entered the inner court, he sat down with Yi Tian and chatted about the future.
The two of them drank and chatted happily. During this time, they even mentioned the divination in the Tian Yun Sect. Yi Tian briefly explained that the Tian Yun Sect had returned to the Li Fire Sect, and Senior All-seer had regained his freedom and was temporarily living in the Thousand Spirit Sect.
Bei Ming Kongjing was not too clear about the reason, but he had seen All-seer's situation and could empathize with him. Since the Tian Yun Sect had been taken over by the Thousand Spirit Sect, how could he have regained his freedom?
But looking at Yi Tian's expression, it did not seem like he was lying. There was something fishy about this. However, Yi Tian only briefly mentioned this matter, and even informed him, "If there is anything that needs divination, you can directly go to the Central State's Thousand Spirit Sect to find All-seer for help."
Bei Ming Kongjing's eyelids twitched. Going to the Thousand Spirit Sect to find someone was a lie. The Thousand Spirit Abyss was also a veteran Yuanying late stage cultivator, and there was even the number one cultivator in the Central State, He Weiming.
He was afraid that he would not be able to find him even if he went there rashly. Seeing Yi Tian's understatement, Bei Ming Kongjing rolled his eyes and raised the wine cup in his hand to play with it, but he said, "This old man did not know that Brother Yi was on good terms with the Thousand Spirit Sect cultivators, but I'm afraid that I will be rejected if I come here rashly."
Yi Tian knew that he was testing him, so he also raised the wine cup in his hand and gave a toast. Then he smiled and said, "To be honest, He Weiming and I have been friends for life, but unfortunately, he is not blessed."
Bei Ming Kongjing choked on this sentence and quickly put down the wine cup in his hand. He stared at Yi Tian for a long time. The amount of information contained in this sentence was beyond imagination. What did it mean to be a friend of life and death? What did it mean to be unlucky?
For Yi Tian to say such words, it was obvious that he had an extraordinary relationship with He Weiming. Even he could only be considered as Yi Tian's confidante.
But then again, it was absolutely shocking for He Weiming and Yi Tian to become sworn friends. It was likely that this Yi Tian in front of him had met someone stronger than the late stage of Yuanying. It was no wonder that he dared to invite him over for a chat.
Thinking up to this point, Darknorth Kongjing began to feel a little apprehensive. However, seeing that Yi Tian was unwilling to reveal any more information, he had no choice but to laugh it off.
After a while, Yi Tian suddenly said, "Bright Snow, quickly prepare another set of tableware. Fellow Daoist Dugu should be here soon."
Beiming Kongjing's expression did not change, but in his heart, he paid attention to Yi Tian's actions. Inviting the two giants of the Western Wilderness at once, it was probably time to talk business. He just didn't know what kind of bargaining chip he could offer.
Three breaths later, a white light flashed across the corridor that connected the atrium. Then, an opening appeared in the middle, and a black shadow flashed through and directly entered the inner courtyard. It was Dugu Tianfeng, who was holding a jade slip to deliver a message.
After he stood still, Yi Tian went straight to him and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Dugu, I haven't seen you for more than two hundred years. You have indeed advanced to the late stage. Congratulations."
"It's you, kid. Your cultivation has also reached the late stage. Moreover …" Dugu Tianfeng suddenly showed a surprised expression on his face. He seemed to feel that there was something wrong with Yi Tian, but he couldn't see it clearly for the time being.
"Fellow Daoist Dugu, you're exaggerating. Please take a seat quickly. Today is a big day for me and Bright Snow, so I've specially invited you to come and be our witness," Yi Tian replied.
Hearing this, Dugu Tianfeng noticed that Yi Tian and Yan Zhaoxue were indeed wearing a red wedding robe today. It looked like they had just finished the wedding ceremony.
However, this sentence was also somewhat insincere. At least, Dugu Tianfeng didn't think that Yi Tian really wanted him to be a witness this time. Glancing around, he happened to see Beiming Kongjing sitting next to the round table. The two looked at each other and could see the doubts in each other's heart.
Dugu Tianfeng had been in Jianghu for a long time and had seen all kinds of scenes. He immediately cupped his hands and complimented, then followed Yi Tian to take a seat.
After the three sat down, Yan Zhaoxue hurriedly came forward and filled the wine cups one by one, then she stepped back and sat beside Yi Tian.
Dugu Tianfeng and Beiming Kongjing looked at each other, then they raised the wine cup in front of them and said to Yi Tian, "Congratulations to Brother Yi for today's big day. I didn't expect that this old man would have the opportunity to participate in such a grand event at the age of one hundred years old. We should drink to our hearts' content."
"Fellow Daoist Dugu is too polite. This matter is due to my negligence. I was anxious and didn't send a message earlier."
Dugu Tianfeng didn't care about it. He just drank three cups of wine in succession before sitting down.
This time, Yi Tian used the marriage as an excuse to invite the two big shots of the Western Wilderness. It wasn't so simple.
Dugu Tianfeng was also a wily old fox. He knew that there must be a big story behind this, so he was not in a hurry to drink and chat with Beiming Kongjing.
After three rounds of wine, Yi Tian knew that it was time to get to the point. He originally wanted to see if Dugu Ao could break out of his trap, but after a long while, there was still no movement. It seemed that he couldn't get out.
As such, there was no need to wait any longer. He raised the wine cup in his hand and toasted the two, "It was indeed abrupt to invite the two of you here. However, the situation in the Western Wilderness is getting more and more chaotic by the day. It's time to reorganize the situation."
Beiming Kongjing glanced at Dugu Tianfeng when he heard this. After their eyes met, they could see the doubts in each other's heart. He then asked, "Brother Yi, are you coming back to retake control of the Beauty Sect?"
Yi Tian nodded his head in agreement, then shook his head and said, "Yes and no."
In response to such an ambiguous answer, Dugu Tianfeng asked, "What does Fellow Daoist Yi intend to do?"
"The Beauty Sect is a branch of my Li Fire Sect in the Western Wilderness. As the new Li Fire Sect Master, how can I sit back and do nothing?" Yi Tian said with a calm expression, as if he was chatting about daily life.
But when these words reached the two's ears, it was no different from a sudden clap of thunder. After all, the news of the Li Fire Sect's revival in the Central State had long been spread. And the Li Fire Sect Master was even more mysterious. Other than the top cultivators of the Central State's large sects, even the famous Yuanying cultivators had no chance of meeting him.
At this moment, Yi Tian had revealed his identity. It made the two of them sizing him up, but neither of them asked any further.
Seeing the awkward silence, Yi Tian knew that the two of them had their own thoughts. He immediately took out a map jade scroll and said, "I have calculated the existing spiritual veins in the Western Wilderness and redivided the areas of influence of the three lower sects. Please take a look. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."
The two of them had seen the markings on the map in the jade scroll, but they were puzzled by Yi Tian's actions. The Beauty Sect actually included all the unexplored areas in the Western Wilderness, especially the areas in the west that extended to the shore of the Western Sea. And the original areas of influence of the three sects were maintained in their original state. Only the areas near the original sect that originally belonged to the Beauty Sect were clearly defined.
Basically, they had given up 30% of their territory, but they had encircled more than 10 times the area outside.
