The elders of the Qingyun Sect arrived quickly, a group of three, each with unfathomable cultivation levels.
Fang Ruotang asked the little mirror a question and learned that there was a cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage among them.
"Tribulation stage? You should have said so earlier! I'm best at dealing with cultivators at this level. Anyone who wants to advance to the Mahayana stage has no choice but to befriend me."
Fang Ruotang didn't step forward, but she happily let her thoughts out loud, in a way that everyone present could hear.
[Oh, what a pity. I was intimidated by their boasting. I've already notified everyone in the entire Cloud Depth Continent. Now almost everyone knows about this secret realm. If the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect hadn't tried to bully my small sect with their superior status, I probably wouldn't have been able to spread the word so quickly.]
[Otherwise, I could just ask around and see if anyone wants to attempt the Mahayana stage. I'd lend a hand, and that would bring us closer, right? It's such a simple thing, just like how I helped the Qin family patriarch.]
Fang Ruotang's words were very dense.
For some reason, the three elders of the Qingyun Sect were able to hear Fang Ruotang's thoughts, and they exchanged a glance.
Knowing that she was the one who helped Qin Laozu, the three of them looked somewhat strange, especially the elder who was at the Great Perfection of the Tribulation Transcending stage.
His cultivation level could no longer be suppressed.
He might suddenly realize something and be forced to attempt the Mahayana stage.
He made extensive preparations, but none of his predecessors who had faced similar challenges had made less preparations than him, and none of them had succeeded.
Ever since the ladder to immortality on their continent was broken, and even the attempt to break through to the Mahayana stage has failed, every cultivator who is about to break through to the Mahayana stage has received attention, without exception.
Just when everyone had resigned themselves to their fate, Qin Laozu appeared, which was like a drop of water falling into a pot of boiling oil.
I heard that Qin Laozu's whereabouts are currently unknown, sometimes going east and sometimes west, but she is followed by a long line of people, all of whom are inquiring about the reason for her success.
With such an urgent situation, how could the elders of the Qingyun Sect not have tried to track down Elder Qin? But they were simply unlucky; wherever they went, Elder Qin would move his location first.
Old Ancestor Qin now treats these Tribulation Transcending stage cultivators like dogs, because they are a whole major realm below him.
Later, news came that the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion had been destroyed by a newly emerged sect called Tianyi Sect, a sect that had never been heard of before.
Moreover, the original pavilion master, elders, and supreme elder of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion have all joined the Heavenly One Sect, and the news of the supreme elder's successful breakthrough to the Great Ascension stage has also spread.
The name of Tianyi Sect is now renowned throughout the entire Yun Shen Continent.
If Fang Ruotang could still keep her helping Qin Laozu break through to the Mahayana stage a secret, then what happened at the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion was something that couldn't be kept secret at all.
He decided to return to his sect first, intending to visit Tianyi Sect personally after his disciples finished participating in the secret realm. He had only followed along because he had heard of Tianyi Sect's great reputation.
In contrast to them, the people of Tianyi Sect couldn't help but smile when they heard Fang Ruotang's thoughts.
Qin Bao'er's expression became even stranger. Was the sect leader going to subdue another sect like this? This was the number one sect in the Cloud Deep Continent!
Oh, right, their disciple is still in my hands. I don't know which master Canaan is a disciple of, or if his master has come.
[Speaking of which, it's been quite some time since Canaan was killed by Master Wei Ren, and his life lamp has been extinguished. Has the Qingyun Sect not discovered this yet? Or is Canaan, this so-called chosen one of heaven, a fake? The disciples of the Medicine King Sect and the Heavenly Evolution Array Sect paid the ransom, so I handed him over to them. I wonder if anyone in the Qingyun Sect wants to save Canaan.]
None of the three elders who came were Canaan's teachers.
Canaan's master is the Supreme Elder of their Qingyun Sect, who never leaves the mountain. He is also a cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage, and his lifespan is about to end. Even if he uses a magic weapon to suppress it and deceives the Heavenly Dao, he will have no way to survive when his lifespan ends.
"What should we do? Should we notify the Supreme Elder?" One of the elders of the Qingyun Sect transmitted his thoughts to the other two.
"Shouldn't we inform him? We were worried that the Grand Elder would be affected by the Canaan matter since we hadn't found the murderer before. If we keep it a secret now, how can we withstand his wrath after he comes out of seclusion?"
"Then tell the sect to contact the Supreme Elder immediately. Put the matter of the secret realm aside for now. Judging from what this person just said, the news has already spread, so there's nothing more to argue about. We might as well solve the Canaan problem first."
With each of the three people contributing their own perspective, the matter was settled.
Fang Ruotang remained calm and even arrogantly took a chicken leg, walked up to the Qingyun Sect, and started eating and talking at the same time.
Of course, these are all just words spoken in one's heart.
But that doesn't prevent everyone from hearing it.
[I wonder how many spirit stones Canaan can sell for. It's supposed to be the number one sect, so it can't be less than Medicine King Valley and Heavenly Evolution Array Sect. Otherwise, I'll look down on you, and your title of number one sect will be meaningless; it'll be a complete waste of its reputation.]
Fang Ruotang munched on a chicken leg, scrutinizing the people from the Qingyun Sect with a series of exaggerated expressions. Although she didn't say anything, she gave the Qingyun Sect the impression that she was using very foul language.
As Fang Ruotang finished one and took out a second one to eat, the people from Qingyun Sect couldn't hold back any longer.
They can't just come here, say nothing, and stand there like idiots watching people eat chicken legs and eavesdropping on their thoughts, can they? It just doesn't seem right.
"I am Faqing, an elder of the Qingyun Sect. May I ask what brings you to my Qingyun Sect's territory?"
Fang Ruotang saw that Elder Faqing knew everything and was still being polite to her. Although she felt that he was going to talk a lot of nonsense, she decided to step forward and negotiate properly.
"Fang Ruotang, Sect Master of Tianyi Sect, I have calculated that this place will soon open a secret realm, so I have led the sect disciples here for training."
"Deduction?" Elder Faqing was skeptical, but dared not question it.
The person in front of him showed no signs of cultivation, and he had just tried to probe the other party's background. He was very careful to maintain his composure, but perhaps he was too careful, because his spiritual power was like a drop of water being poured into the sea.
There was no reaction at all.
He was completely stunned.
This was different from what he had imagined. He wanted to find out more about her, at least to know what level of cultivation she possessed.
"You don't believe me? Otherwise, ask me what you want to know, and I'll calculate it for you without charging you spirit stones, but the next one will cost you."
"Need not."
Elder Faqing refused outright.
Whether it's true or not, he wouldn't be foolish enough to ask about his private affairs in front of others.
Fang Ruotang looked regretful. She had already started reading about Elder Faqing's life. Although she didn't want to ask, she really wanted to say something, since there was some information she wanted to share.
