The crowd stared at Shang Xiye and Ji Fengyao in disbelief for a long while before someone noticed something was amiss:
"No, they are not the sect leader and Senior Sister Yun Yao. They only have the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul Realm!"
"The sect leader has the cultivation of the Ascension stage, and Junior Nephew Yun Yao is also a Great Completion stage cultivator. They are not the sect leader and Yun Yao!"
"This girl doesn't look much like Senior Sister Yun Yao. Senior Sister Yun Yao has a more gentle and refined air about her..."
Just as everyone was discussing, Jiang Dailu, the current acting sect leader of Danzong, narrowed his eyes and calmly said, "But the identity token in her hand is indeed the token of Yun Yao from the main peak, Shending Peak, and the bracelet she is wearing is indeed the sect leader's bracelet."
Upon hearing this, everyone took a closer look at the token in Ji Fengyao's hand and the bracelet on her wrist, and immediately fell silent.
Jiang Dailu stepped forward alone, arriving at the edge of the protective array. He looked closely at Ji Fengyao, then cautiously glanced at Shang Xiye, making sure there was no disguise on either of their faces. Only then did he bow respectfully to Shang Xiye and say, "Sect Master, you've finally returned..."
"Master Uncle, he is not my master," Ji Fengyao quickly said, stopping Jiang Daili from bowing deeply.
“What…” Jiang Daili straightened up, staring at Shang Xiye in disbelief, then looked at Ji Fengyao in confusion: “This is clearly the Sect Master, why is my nephew…” He stopped mid-sentence, then remembered what happened back then, and murmured, “That’s right, the Sect Master went to undergo the Ascension Tribulation back then. Even if he succeeded, he shouldn’t be in this world anymore. Moreover, the Sect Master failed, so he is…”
“He is my husband,” Ji Fengyao said with a smile, turning around and taking Shang Xiye’s hand.
Jiang Dailu: "..."
The members of the Dan Sect: "..."
What kind of husband can't you find? A husband who looks exactly like your master?
Aren't you afraid people will gossip if you take this out?
"Senior Uncle, could you activate this protective mountain formation so we can go inside and talk? Or should I activate it myself using my seal?" Ji Fengyao smiled and held up the seal in her hand, appearing to be very good-tempered and polite.
Jiang Dailu and the others from the Dan Sect were once again surprised to see the sect leader's seal in her hand:
The former sect leader actually gave the seal that symbolized the sect leader's authority to Yun Yao, and Yun Yao even had the right to use it;
Doesn't this mean that Yun Yao is the next sect leader of the Dan Sect?
The Grand Elder served as the acting sect leader of the Pill Sect for nearly a thousand years, only to end up being the one to make a wedding dress for a little girl for a thousand years...
The members of the Dan Sect lingered between Jiang Dailu and Ji Fengyao with complicated expressions.
Jiang Dailu's expression was also very complicated, but he still politely took out a spare seal and opened a corner of the great formation.
After Ji Fengyao entered the formation, Jiang Daili closed it again.
If Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye hadn't reacted quickly and let go in time, the protective mountain formation would have severed Shang Xiye's hand!
"What does this mean, Master Uncle?" Ji Fengyao had long seen through Jiang Dailu's unwelcome and unwillingness towards her, but since Jiang Dailu had been pretending to be polite, she did not make a fuss and cooperated with him to play the part of peace and tranquility.
But Jiang Daili's actions now were clearly intended to intimidate her, and he almost injured Shang Xiye.
The smile on her face instantly turned cold.
“Nephew, have you forgotten the rules of our Dan Sect? No one other than a member of the Dan Sect is allowed to enter the sect. Even relatives and Daoist partners can only live at the foot of the mountain. I am just following the rules of the sect. Please don’t take offense, nephew,” Jiang Daili said with a helpless look.
