Shen Sanruo raised an eyebrow. She wasn't very clear about the situation at Feiyun Sect, nor did she know that Shen Daochen was ill.

As for what Feng Heyun was doing, she had no idea.

She had not seen Shen Daochen and Feng Heyun since they left Ninghua Sect that day.

Even when they came to collect Lu Shiqing's body, who had been tormented to death by the Seven Emotions Gu, it was other people from the Flying Cloud Sect who came.

It seemed as if he had truly behaved himself, no longer bothering her, and disappeared from her world.

She didn't know if they truly realized she could never go back, but in any case, she was quite happy without their harassment for a while.

The leaders of several sects were still discussing the Flying Cloud Sect.

Liang Yue sneered, "The Flying Cloud Sect has come to this point entirely because of their own actions."

"I wonder what Shen Daochen thinks now that he sees Sect Leader Shen. He must be regretting it to the core," Jiang Wensheng chimed in.

Speaking of which, these two Sect Masters Shen have quite a history.

Back then, Shen Sangruo's affair with the Feiyun Sect and Shen Daochen caused quite a stir. Afterwards, everyone's attention was focused on the brilliance of Shen Sangruo, and these past events were almost forgotten by them.

Jiang Wensheng is also a father, so he is even less able to understand Shen Daochen's series of actions back then.

Even if they weren't biological father and daughter, their father-daughter relationship of more than ten years could be sown apart and severed so easily.

Shen Daochen is indeed a talented person.

Not to mention that Shen Sangruo was so outstanding, yet Shen Daochen ultimately chose an evil spirit.

If his son had even half of Chen Sangruo's abilities, this old father would be laughing in his dreams.

But Shen Daochen didn't know how to cherish her at all, and allowed Feiyun Sect to treat Shen Sangriuo like that. He deserved his current fate.

"Looking at it from another angle, it's thanks to their past madness that I was able to escape from that murky water sooner," Shen Sangruo said with a smile. "Otherwise, I don't know how many more years I would have been trapped in the Flying Cloud Sect."

"Thank you all for standing up for Sang Ruo."

"I can only say that this retribution came too quickly. The Flying Cloud Sect has declined too rapidly in the past few years." Liang Yue waved her hand.

Gu Ci Zhenjun also said, "If there is another sect competition, I'm afraid Feiyun Sect won't even make it into the top 100, and will soon be forgotten."

Because the issue of heretical cultivators has not yet been resolved, it will be impossible to hold a sect competition in the near future.

"In my opinion, not being able to make it into the top 100 is an overestimation of them; they might not even make it into the top 300," Zhong Chuan said, his words even more cutting.

"For three whole months, the Flying Cloud Sect couldn't even finish searching the area around their own territory, and in the end, we had to come and help them."

Zhong Chuan clicked his tongue and shook his head, the meaning of his words self-evident.

The fact that all the sects gathered here was because the Flying Cloud Sect had very few people willing to step forward, making the search for the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers extremely slow.

Since they had already searched all the other parts of the cultivation world and only this area remained, they decided to come along as well.

In any case, once the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers are found, breaking the mechanisms left behind by the evil cultivators will definitely require the combined efforts of the entire cultivation world.

After exchanging greetings, the group led their respective sects and dispersed to search for the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers.

Shen Sanruo also returned to Ninghua Sect's ranks.

Besides the cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage within the sect, the Ninghua Sect's small team, along with extra members, and the four Qiyan were also present.

It has the most luxurious configuration of all the teams.

"Oh, Sect Leader Shen is back." Su Xiyu stepped forward and took her arm, teasing her.

Chen Sangruo mimicked Su Xiyu's tone, "Oh, isn't this the sect leader's senior sister? Are you here to greet me too?"

"Sect Leader Shen is chatting and laughing with the leaders of other sects, quite like the demeanor of a great sect leader," Song Weiyan said with a grin.

Even Ye Huai chimed in, "Hmm, quite the demeanor of a great sect leader."

"We've all benefited from Junior Sister's fame," Bai Ruoan said with a slight smile.

Others, including Fang Yu, would also joke with her.

They would naturally be happy to see Shen Sang become the sect leader of Ninghua Sect.

This behavior is nothing more than a joke between close friends.

Who could resist making a joke after their friend becomes a "high-ranking official"?

Only Wuwei Daoist, seeing Shen Sanruo handling the group of sect leaders with ease, shook his head and said, "Oh dear, I was too hasty."

"If I had known, I should have handed over Ninghua Sect to this girl sooner. I was worried that she was too young and wouldn't be able to handle some things."

It seems he was overthinking things.

I regret it so much.

After a moment of deep sorrow and remorse, the Taoist Wuwei finally joined the search team and began to use his magic to find the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers.

The area near the Flying Cloud Sect was divided into several parts, with each sect responsible for one part.

Following the route taken by Ninghua Sect, Chen Sanruo discovered that they had actually arrived at Youyue Valley.

Back then, it was here that Bai Mumu falsely accused her of pushing her off the valley, leading to her being imprisoned in a solitary confinement chamber.

It was here that she found the Xuanmu containing a wisp of the soul of the Daoist Wuwei, which extracted her emotions and freed her from the torment of the Seven Emotions Gu.

Later, she accidentally entered the Ninghua Sect's formation, and from then on, she became connected with the Ninghua Sect, gradually severing her ties with the Feiyun Sect until she completely broke away from the Feiyun Sect.

This place can also be considered "where her dream began".

After Ninghua Sect moved back to its old site from the seal, she rarely came here anymore.

Returning here now fills me with a myriad of emotions.

The search process was like a return to familiar places for her and Immortal Lord Changli, bringing back countless memories.

Of course, as they ventured deeper into the Valley of the Dark Moon, all of these thoughts vanished.

All their attention was focused on finding the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers, and they didn't expect to find them at the edge of Youyue Valley.

Furthermore, Shen Sanruo always remembered the rumors about Youyue Valley.

Legend has it that a ferocious demon is imprisoned deep within the Ghost Moon Valley, and even cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage would find it difficult to escape if they fell in.

Along the way, they did encounter some monsters.

However, they were either easily subdued by them, or they were so frightened by the five divine beasts that they turned and ran away.

The powerful demon that she dared not provoke back then is now nothing more than a threat to her.

The seemingly unattainable Nascent Soul stage has now been reached by her.

The sensational rumor turned into a harmless joke.

Returning to the old place, I realized how fast she had grown over the years, how obvious her growth was, and how far she had come.

Spiritual energy continuously emerged in her hands, leaving trails as she made hand seals.

After a series of fluid and graceful moves, she suddenly slammed the spell into the ground. Sensing the response from below, Shen Sangruo's eyes lit up.

Second update! Thank you all for your support! *tweets*
