Chapter 124: Chapter 0124: Do You Know What the Peak of Life Is?
The next day!
The Taiwu Immortal Sect held a grand event. When everyone opened their eyes, they found the Heavenly Vault was covered with seven-colored auspicious clouds, and a shocking rainbow transformed into a celestial bridge stretching across the sky.
Simultaneously, the Spiritual Energy was far thicker than usual, as if someone had drawn the Spiritual Energy from all corners of the heavens and earth and condensed it into one point.
Such shocking means were beyond the capabilities of ordinary people.
All the disciples were utterly baffled.
What kind of major event was happening today? The usually tranquil Taiwu Immortal Sect seemed destined for unparalleled excitement.
Ye Zhen Tian, being a True Disciple, didn’t have many pressing matters to deal with. Most days, he cultivated on Zhen Tian Peak, occasionally paying visits to the Spirit Vein to check on matters.
At this moment, he was full of doubt.
The sect had summoned all disciples to gather at the Grand Hall, saying there was something important to announce.
Ye Zhen Tian speculated for a moment—could it be the Sect Leader succession evaluation?
But it shouldn’t be.
The current Sect Leader was still in his prime, commanding authority across the land. There was no need to rush into succession matters.
Then, what on earth was this about?
Though he couldn’t figure it out, he still left Zhen Tian Peak and headed toward the Grand Hall.
This wasn’t just Ye Zhen Tian’s puzzle.
Every disciple was pondering the reason behind this gathering.
Outside the Grand Hall.
The True Disciples representing each peak stood at the forefront, with their respective disciples aligned behind them. As for the ordinary disciples who hadn’t attained True Disciple status, they assembled together at one side.
The scene was vast, stretching as far as the eye could see.
The Sect Leader had yet to appear as Ye Zhen Tian approached an elder and asked, "What’s the matter? Why would the sect summon all disciples here? Even the Sect Leader’s coronation ceremony wouldn’t be this elaborate."
The elder replied calmly, "The Sect Leader’s senior sister has been in closed-door training for hundreds of years. Now that she’s emerged, you juniors are gathering here to see her. No need to be too tense."
"The Sect Leader’s senior sister?" Ye Zhen Tian was stunned upon hearing this. He hadn’t heard much about the senior sister before, and various thoughts began to brew. Though he was a True Disciple, his position within the Sect Leader succession selection was middling, with no clear advantages. If he could become the disciple of the Sect Leader’s senior sister, wouldn’t the future leadership of the sect be within his grasp?
This elder glanced at Ye Zhen Tian, instantly recognizing his thoughts.
Such notions weren’t rare—many harbored similar ambitions. Instead of focusing on improving oneself, some looked for shortcuts.
Just as the elder described.
The True Disciples were all probing for details, and the news they obtained was consistent: the Sect Leader’s senior sister had come out of seclusion.
Beyond that, there wasn’t much else to uncover.
Within the Xuanjian Peak contingent.
Xi Xi whispered, "Have you seen Junior Brother?"
"No, when I went to call for him this morning, he was nowhere to be found," Chen Zhiyu replied.
"What should we do? If Junior Brother doesn’t know what’s happening and enters this area last-minute, he’ll surely face severe punishment," Xi Xi said anxiously.
Yang Gang added, "Could Junior Brother have gone out and isn’t in the sect at all? Regardless, you don’t need to worry excessively. Junior Brother isn’t someone lacking insight. If he does show up and sees the situation, he likely won’t approach directly. Instead, he’ll quietly wait somewhere for it all to end."
While they discussed this, Meng Qingyao, standing at the front, spoke up, "Enough talking. Be quiet."
"Lin Fan, as a disciple of Xuanjian Peak, failed to respond to the sect’s summons. Afterward, I will discipline him properly."
Xi Xi and the others fell silent and stood obediently.
Originally, they wanted to speak some good words on behalf of their Junior Brother. However, seeing Senior Sister Meng Qingyao’s stern expression, they instantly understood she wasn’t joking. Saying more might only provoke further anger.
Meng Qingyao’s gaze fixated on the surrounding True Disciples. Her competitors were precisely this group. Though they hadn’t met for quite some time, today, as she observed them, she realized many of their auras were far more robust than before, indicating significant progress in their cultivation.
Some of the True Disciples around noticed Meng Qingyao’s gaze and acknowledged her with subtle nods.
They were somewhat familiar with the conflicts between Meng Qingyao and Ye Zhen Tian.
It was whispered that Meng Qingyao had gained an advantage and left Ye Zhen Tian at a loss—a truly intriguing tale.
At that moment.
The Sect Leader appeared.
All disciples greeted him with utmost respect, "Greetings, Sect Leader..."
Their voices boomed like thunder, echoing across heaven and earth.
A grand sect indeed—a scene like this was beyond most sects, which couldn’t even boast this many disciples.
Standing on the high platform, the Sect Leader surveyed the disciples below with satisfaction. This mighty Taiwu Immortal Sect was the fruit of his painstaking efforts. Such magnificence was his creation.
He felt a deep sense of pride.
"My senior sister has been in seclusion for centuries. Many of you, as disciples of the Taiwu Immortal Sect, likely have never met her. Today, you’ve been summoned here for that reason," the Sect Leader declared.
He paused briefly, then turned sideways and said.
"Welcome my senior sister."
Outside the Grand Hall, the disciples shouted in reverence, "Greetings, Ancestor..."
To them, the person about to appear was akin to a divine being.
Just then.
Wei You stepped out briskly. Her overwhelming aura crashed over the disciples like waves rolling and crushing mountains, making everyone deeply uneasy.
But, immediately after.
All eyes widened in astonishment—for beside the Sect Leader’s senior sister, there stood a young man.
Who was he?
How could he possibly stand there?
"Junior Brother..." Xi Xi was utterly dumbfounded. She rubbed her eyes as though she had seen incorrectly, but upon looking again and again, there was no doubt—that was Junior Brother.
Instantly, her mind spiraled into chaos. It was as if the sky had collapsed; her thoughts were an incomprehensible mess.
Chen Zhiyu tugged at Xi Xi, "Senior Sister, is that him?"
"It seems like it," Xi Xi murmured.
"No way. How could Junior Brother possibly stand by the Sect Leader’s senior sister?" Chen Zhiyu gaped in disbelief.
On the platform.
Lin Fan straightened his back, a faint smile on his face. He had tried his hardest to suppress his laughter, nearly bursting into an unrestrained fit of wild amusement.
He wanted to shout to everyone below.
Do you know what it means to stand at the pinnacle of life?
Of course, you wouldn’t understand.
But seeing me, you’ll realize this isn’t something you could ever envy into existence.
"How could this be..." Nan Gongjin muttered, wavering where he stood, his complexion growing pale. He had recognized the young man standing beside the Sect Leader’s senior sister—it was the very person he had long sought to force onto the Life and Death Platform.
Yet now, how could that person be standing there?
Wei You remained expressionless, standing tall. The Sect Leader beside her leaned in and whispered, "Senior Sister, say something to the juniors."
He felt slightly awkward.
Gathering all the disciples here was a grand affair—his senior sister couldn’t just stand silently. This would bring immense pressure upon the juniors.
Wei You cast a glance at the Sect Leader, then gently pushed Lin Fan forward. Facing the disciples below, she spoke slowly.
"This is my son, Lin Fan."
The words had barely left her lips before the disciples below exploded in uproar.
