The Spiritual Assembly was just two days away. You You and Lin Feng hurried along in their small spirit boat, barely making it to their destination before the Moon Sea Secret Realm opened. Unlike the grand Heavenly Selection Ceremony at Fengtian Pavilion, she discovered upon arrival that everyone was simply gathering on an open space by the sea to chat, hardly qualifying as an assembly.
From afar, she could see all sorts of magical artifacts parked on the open space, of all kinds, including lotus flowers, moon trees, and rare spirit beasts... each one looked more high-end than the last. Her little spirit boat seemed out of place, and sure enough, as soon as it landed, it was met with disdainful or mocking glances from the crowd.
Youyou didn't care, after all, she had just established her sect and didn't have much strength. They stopped at a spot on the outskirts and took a closer look before realizing that there were already quite a few people there. Those who knew each other were already chatting, and there were even quite a few women dressed in gorgeous clothes and full of spiritual energy. They should be the celestial maidens of each sect, each protecting a group of people with higher cultivation levels.
This was the first time she had seen so many people of the same sex since she came into this world, and she couldn't help but feel a little curious.
"This celestial maiden looks unfamiliar. I wonder which sect she belongs to?" A woman's voice suddenly came from the side, carrying a hint of inquiry.
Youyou turned around and saw a woman in green looking at her.
"Hello!" You You replied politely, "I am You You from the True Transformation Sect, which was recently established!"
"You You!" The woman in green seemed startled, and the people around her also turned around and looked her up and down. "You're the celestial maiden who made her followers ascend to heaven?"
"..." Can we please not bring up her sad stories?
The woman in green instantly became critical, glancing at Lin Feng beside her before letting out a cold laugh. "Looks like he's not all that great!" With that, she ignored her and turned to walk away a few steps.
Even the others turned around and started talking.
Youyou: "..."
As expected, the company is small, so nobody pays attention to us.
“Your Excellency, there’s no need to worry.” A man in white suddenly stepped forward and said with a reassuring tone, “Your Excellency’s sect is newly established, so it’s inevitable that some people will question you. Once your sect becomes stronger, naturally no one will look down on you!”
You You was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Lin Feng, who was frowning. So they were judging people by the cultivation level of their disciples, and were they just looking down on Lin Feng because of his low cultivation level? The strength of the people she brought didn't represent her own strength. What kind of logic was that? Judging from the amount of spiritual energy they had, she could easily take on ten of them, believe it or not.
“You are…” she looked at the kind man who was explaining the science to her.
"My name is Qiu Yue, and I am a Dharma Protector Elder of the Mingxin Sect." The man smiled gently.
"Mingxin Sect?" You You felt the name sounded familiar.
Qiu Yue's smile deepened as he continued, "Your Excellency may have seen the invitation from our sect. A few days ago, my sect leader sent an invitation to your sect, reminding Your Excellency to attend the Spirit Ceremony!"
"So the notice about that Spiritual Assembly was issued by your Heavenly Maiden?" You You was surprised.
“That’s true.” Qiu Yue nodded, turning her head to look to the right as if to indicate her presence.
Youyou looked in that direction and saw a woman in white standing not far away, who should be the Heavenly Maiden of the Mingxin Sect.
The other person seemed to be in poor health; although dressed in luxurious clothes, they appeared inexplicably thin, and their face was excessively pale. Noticing her gaze, they turned their head and glanced at her, first nodding, then seemingly opening their eyes as if to say something, before letting out a series of coughs. The disciples accompanying them immediately began to ask questions anxiously, surrounding the person, making it impossible to see their condition clearly.
"My sect leader suffered a minor injury recently and is feeling slightly unwell, which is why he summoned me to pay my respects to Your Excellency," Qiu Yue explained. He continued, "Your sect and my Mingxin sect are both located in the Southern Territory. Originally, my sect leader intended to personally visit to congratulate your sect on its establishment, but was delayed by other matters. Considering that the Moon Sea Secret Realm is about to open, we were afraid that Your Excellency might be too busy to remember such an important matter, so we sent this invitation to remind you. Please forgive us, Your Excellency!"
"No, you're too kind." You You smiled and quickly thanked them, "Thank you for sending the invitation." It was such a good opportunity to collect supplies, and they had no relatives or friends with us, so it was already very kind of them to notify us.
"Your Excellency is too kind. This is what my Mingxin Sect should do. My sect leader is extremely hospitable. If Your Excellency has the time, you are welcome to visit my Mingxin Sect. We will certainly welcome you with open arms." Qiu Yue smiled even more politely. After exchanging a few more pleasantries, she seemed a little worried about her sect leader and said, "Then I wish Your Excellency a safe and prosperous journey." She smiled, bowed, and turned to walk back to her right.
Youyou watched him walk away, this was the first time she had ever encountered such a friendly immortal sect. She had originally wanted to go and greet the celestial maiden who had accompanied him, since the maiden had informed her about the Spiritual Assembly. However, considering the maiden's health, she decided not to go and disturb her.
"Your Excellency, the Mingxin Sect is one of the top sects in the southern part of Xianze." Lin Feng suddenly turned to her and began to explain in a low voice, "I've heard that the Immortal Sect's Tianshan Sect has been cultivating for thousands of years, and all its disciples are top figures in Xianze. Especially this Qiu Yue, he's very famous!"
"Huh?" You You was taken aback. "Is he that good?"
“That’s true.” Lin Feng nodded. “Legend has it that he was the last to become a follower of the Heavenly Maiden of the Mingxin Sect. He was highly valued by the Heavenly Maiden and, in just a few hundred years, he cultivated from a Foundation Establishment disciple to the Nascent Soul stage. Even the cultivation of the Heavenly Maiden’s other followers is far inferior to his. Moreover, he has a lot of influence in the Mingxin Sect. It can be said that the entire sect is under his control.”
"Wow! What a talent!" She was somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected that the person who seemed so polite was actually a big shot.
