A month later, Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu reappeared at Daoyuan Sect. This time, the sect leader, the grand elder, and the sect's elite disciples all came out to greet them, along with the adorable little Taoist Wuwang.

"Young friends, please come in." After learning about their cultivation levels, the sect leader strongly insisted that they address each other as seniors. Ye Xiruo refused, saying that they looked so old and that they should be treated as equals, otherwise it would be too awkward.

The most powerful cultivator in Daoyuan Sect is the Grand Elder, who is five hundred years old and has reached the late Golden Core stage. He is finding it difficult to break through, but his cultivation is very deep. If he were to go to Taiyan Continent, he might be able to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage in a very short time. This is because the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is scarce, which restricts and shackles cultivators. Only by breaking out of this world can they find a way to survive.

"Greetings, Sect Leader."

Xiu Qiyu and Ye Xiruo changed into the attire of Luoxia Valley, dressed in jade-like green robes, looking like elegant young men, peerless in the world.

When the other elite disciples saw the two young faces, as well as their demeanor and bearing, they were amazed and couldn't believe there were such outstanding individuals in the world. However, seeing the sect leader Gong Jing's attitude, they knew that the two were highly skilled, and their desire to compete with them immediately diminished considerably.

After meeting Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu, the others dispersed, leaving only the Grand Elder and the Sect Leader. They were still at Zhang Nightmare's residence, where the pale green tea leaves emitted the same fragrance.

Ye Xiruo suppressed her excitement and said calmly, "I don't know if that place has appeared yet."

The elder nodded, but his expression was not good.

"But what went wrong?"

"Tianyuan Sect has sealed off the entrance and only given a very limited number of places to other sects. The elders are considering a head-on confrontation."

"Tianyuan Sect is short-sighted. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is depleted, the Daoist sect is declining, and instead of making progress, they think about how to scheme against each other and oppress their fellow disciples."

"The people of Tianyuan Sect are actively involved in worldly affairs and have a great influence in the human realm. Most of their disciples mingle in the human world, pursuing fame and fortune, and do not care about cultivation."

"Can't the other five sects unite to suppress Tianyuan Sect?" How can such a disgrace to the cultivation world possibly remain forever?

“It’s not that we haven’t done it before. They collude with the military and have some lethal weapons. Last time, we lost two elders and five others were seriously injured, which greatly weakened our strength. Tianyuan Sect has become even more unscrupulous.”

"Have we been exposed?" The Lost Land, the Gate of Inheritance, they definitely have to enter. Whoever stands in their way will die. However, they need to carefully consider the specifics. They are unwilling to be used as pawns by the Dao Yuan Sect.

"Where is it? When did it appear? How long will it remain closed?" Ask for the most important information first; those clowns are not worth mentioning.

"There are always omens before that place appears, and now the omens have appeared. It will be fully revealed in about three days. The location is in the Death Valley behind Tianyuan Gate. The situation there is strange and very dangerous."

"Doesn't the Tianyuan Sect know that not just anyone can enter that place?"

“Of course I know. I guess they want mortals to go to the outside world through that place.”

Ye Xiruo could only sneer twice at this. This Tianyuan Sect is really audacious. Cultivators have a nine-out-of-ten chance of dying if they go in, yet they actually tricked ordinary people into going in. Aren't they afraid of committing too many sins and being taken away by the heavens? This Tianyuan Sect is truly heartless and insane.

"What does Brother Xiuqi think?"

"The Gate of Inheritance is your hope, and you naturally don't want to be suppressed by the Tianyuan Sect. It just so happens that our goals are the same, so we can cooperate to eradicate the Tianyuan Sect." This was Xiu Qiyu's attitude: simply wipe them out and there would be no more trouble.

The sect leader and the Grand Historian both gasped. They never expected that Xiu Qiyu, with her jade-like appearance, would have a heart like that of a demon, wanting to eradicate Tianyuan Sect as soon as she opened her mouth.

“We will investigate first. If what you say is true, such a sect is rotten to the core. Keeping it around will only cause greater sins. The best way is to eradicate it completely.”

“What you two young friends say makes sense. However, we have been accumulating strength for many years, and now it’s finally time to settle the score.”

"Where is Tianyuan Sect? Find someone to take us there."

The sect leader quickly summoned an elite disciple and instructed him to follow the orders of Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu along the way.

"The sect leader has gone to gather people from the five major sects and prepare for entering the Gate of Inheritance. The two of us will go to Tianyuan Sect to scout out the situation."

"You two young friends should be extra careful."

"A mere Tianyuan Sect."

Sighing as they watched Xiu Qiyu's flying sword disappear into the distance, the sect leader and the Grand Historian both sighed. Such a dashing figure.

The elite disciple who was caught by Xiu Qiyu and placed on the Shadowless Sword was still in a daze for a long time. In the end, Ye Xiruo gave him a mental suggestion: "Don't make a fuss. If you fall, you know what will happen."

Seeing the elite disciple fall silent with a pale face, Ye Xiruo's mood improved considerably: "Just tell me where Tianyuan Sect is."

Knowing that the strength of the two people in front of him far exceeded his expectations, the elite disciple felt relieved: "Tianyuan Sect is several hundred kilometers away from Daoyuan Sect. We need to cross three mountains and pass through a dense forest to get there."

"Okay, sit down."

Xiu Qiyu quickened his pace, while Ye Xiruo held onto the elite disciple to prevent him from falling.

"Is this the place?"

The elite disciple was dizzy at this moment. He was flying. His senior's speed was really too fast. In just over an hour, he arrived at Tianyuan Gate.

"Find a place to hide yourself and don't let them find you. The two of us will go in and gather information."

"Please be careful, seniors. I'll take my leave now."

"Go."

"The young Taoist priests of Daoyuan Sect are quite interesting."

"Okay, Little Leaf, let's go in."

Ye Xiruo activated the invisibility jade pendant. There were also traces of an array in front of the Tianyuan Sect's gate, more complete than that of the Daoyuan Sect, but to the two of them, it was still utterly vulnerable, riddled with flaws. The two swaggered through the loopholes in the array.

"The most magnificent building on the east side must be where the sect leader and elders live."

"Okay." Tianyuan Gate was also built against the mountain, with beautiful scenery, but the newer buildings always felt a bit out of place. There were two dragon veins below Tianyuan Gate, neither of which were in good condition, indicating that Tianyuan Gate had over-consumed the earth's energy from the dragon veins over the years without replenishing it.
