What's it like to be so pretentious as to target your own people?

Bai Cang said: It's a little embarrassing, but it's not a big problem.

After all, his skin had been refined, and its strength, thickness, and hardness were comparable to defensive magical artifacts.

So he simply smiled faintly and nodded slightly to the Fang-surnamed Divine Light Master.

"So it is the Supreme Being himself who has arrived! We have been so unwelcoming and have truly been extremely impolite!"

The man surnamed Fang suddenly shuddered, his excitement becoming visibly palpable.

However, he involuntarily bowed slightly, gave Bai Cang a fawning smile, and made a guiding gesture.

"Please be so bold as to ask Your Excellency to wait a moment while I, Fang, immediately inform the sect leader to open the mountain gates and respectfully welcome Your Excellency's arrival!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Cang shook his head, reached out and grabbed Fang Baoliu's fair hand, and uttered his first words upon arriving at Heshan Road.

"No need for formalities, I find these red tape the most."

"Please trouble Master Fang to convey my message: my senior sister will take me to pay my respects to True Lord Yao!"

Before he could finish speaking...

Without Bai Cang making any move, the Bright Moon Sword Pellet leaped out from the top of his head.

Then, with a swift movement, he transformed into a sword light, engulfing him and Fang Baoliu, and hurtling towards the mountain gate of Heshan Road.

Seeing this scene.

The master surnamed Fang immediately raised his hand and sent out twenty or thirty talismans.

Then he slowly straightened his back, looking around with an air of self-confidence and arrogance.

It's as if they're saying: You bunch of idiots, what are you looking at?

Haven't you ever seen a big shot who's truly "chatting and laughing" with you?

The surrounding crowd, however, all looked on with envy and quickly gathered around, showering this Master Fang with compliments.

Among them were even direct descendants of the Feng, Ma, and Yao families, all of whom were so envious that they were "turning purple with envy."

Every movement, every expression, every word conveys a universally acknowledged message.

The Fang family of Yujin Mountain is about to strike it rich!

Almost everyone in Heshandao knows the special status of "True Lord Tianhe"—no, now it's "Venerable Tianhe"—in Heshandao.

To call him "the retired emperor" is disrespectful.

His direct disciples are now so close to the Fang family.

If the Fang family doesn't prosper, who will?

As for whether Bai Cang's identity was genuine or not, no one doubted it.

They went directly to see the Sect Master, so who would dare to lie to the Sect Master at the headquarters of Heshan Dao?

Bai Cang: I am but a humble person, but perhaps I am fit to take the job!

Meanwhile, in the Pangu Mountains.

Bai Cang, accompanied by his beloved, flew over the Heavenly Gate and Earthly Gate in about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, heading towards the true mountain gate of Heshan Road.

But beneath that ring-shaped natural barrier, a towering mountain stood, reaching into the clouds.

Above the mountainside, everything is shrouded in clouds and mist, resembling a fairy island rising above the sea of ​​clouds, enveloped by a tangible array of spiritual light, making it impossible to see clearly.

Only the majestic mountains, like pillars reaching to the sky, give people a strong sense of oppression.

All around are deep abysses riddled with cracks, and there is no vast, continuous mountain range. Only this one peak soars into the clouds, making it appear even more majestic and magnificent.

It's like a pillar supporting the sky, flying in from who knows where and planting itself right here.

This is the mountain gate of Heshan Road, my first impression of Bai Cang.

"This is Feilai Tianyue, the headquarters of Heshan Dao."

Fang Baoliu explained gently, "Entering the mountain gate requires a pass token."

"But the tokens from the Tianhe Sect have the highest access privileges within the sect!"

As he spoke, Bai Cang unleashed his sword light and strolled forward leisurely.

Even before getting close, an incomparably powerful aura emanated from the array's spiritual light.

It surged forth like a tidal wave, crashing down on everyone who approached it.

For some inexplicable reason, Bai Cang seemed to sense dozens of forbidden techniques for probing him, which were enveloping him.

Many more forbidden spells, whether for defense or offense, are also poised to be unleashed at this moment.

However, he could only vaguely sense a slight fluctuation of spiritual energy.

Yet it was obscure and difficult to understand, appearing and disappearing indistinctly. Even Bai Cang, who had activated his "Zhaoling Heavenly Eye," could not discern any clues.

Upon seeing this, Bai Cang couldn't help but feel a chill: As expected of a prestigious unorthodox sect, their mountain-protecting formation is indeed extraordinary.

Even with the blessing of Venerable Tianhe, the newly established Xia Kingdom Heshan Sect is no match for the mountain gate of Heshan Dao, which has been operating for thousands of years.

They are not even in the same league; they are incomparable.

Thinking this, Bai Cang took off the "Heavenly River Sword Token" and waved it.

Immediately, a sky full of rosy clouds swept in, forming a heavenly staircase that stretched down from the towering peak to their feet.

Bai Cang took a step forward and immediately felt the world spinning around him.

As if teleported through the void, the world changed in the blink of an eye.

Bai Cang looked around. All he saw were towering, steep stone walls that seemed to reach straight into the clouds.

The waterfalls, large and small, resemble white jade ribbons or snow dragons bowing their heads, hanging upside down on the surrounding cliffs and pouring into the emerald pools below.

Then it flows along the waterway and converges into the vast blue lake that stretches for hundreds of miles in the middle, like ten thousand dragons returning to their nest.

One after another, floating mountains, some large and some small, some tens of feet high, others truly like mountain ranges, float above the vast blue lake.

Each of these floating mountains boasts stunning scenery, ancient pines and cypresses, and palaces standing side by side, appearing and disappearing in the distance.

Who would have thought that what appears to be just a solitary peak as Feilai Tianyue is actually so magnificent inside, like a paradise on earth?

However, this was merely the gate of a major unorthodox sect.

What kind of grandeur do the mountain gates of those great Xuanmen sects possess?

"Mountains within mountains, forming their own world, truly extraordinary."

Thinking of this, Bai Cang couldn't help but sigh.

Before they could finish speaking, a bold voice rang out in their ears.

"I am unworthy of such praise from you, young friend. May I come forward and have a chat?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the most majestic suspended mountain in the middle was immediately filled with rosy clouds, forming a ladder that descended from the sky.

"This is the Tianyue Palace, the residence of the Sect Master True Lord," Fang Baoliu introduced in a low voice.

Bai Cang immediately nodded and took a step forward with a calm expression.

The True Elixir Master, whom both Yao Kaishan, the head of the Heshan Dao Sect, and "Uncle-Master Xuanhu" said was "worth a look," should not be underestimated, nor is he qualified to underestimate him.

However, Bai Cang always kept his "identity" in mind.

As a dignified "personal disciple of the Dao Lord," one can stand on equal footing even when facing a Golden Core True Lord, so naturally one cannot show any fear.

Just as he was thinking this, he saw the clouds and rosy sky ladder rolling around, and Bai Cang suddenly felt the scenery before his eyes change.

Before long, they had climbed the towering mountain and arrived at the gate of a grand hall.

The palace gates were wide open, revealing a deep and secluded atmosphere, with a majestic presence that seemed to rise like a mountain within.

But Bai Cang remained unfazed and stepped inside without changing his expression!
