Chapter 1192: Chapter 517: Jiang Yuan’s Banquet, Gorgeous Woman in Palace Dress!

Several days later.

Supreme Mystery Sect.

Knock, knock, knock—

The sound of knocking echoed.

Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes, first glancing at his own panel.

[Great Dao]: Space Great Dao (98.36%)...

The Space Great Dao had made some progress.

But the closer he got to completion, the more inefficient the progress became.

However, all this was within his expectations, and his heart remained calm without any ripples.

He then closed the panel and immediately saw Shu Xiaoxiao standing at the courtyard door.

"Young Master!" Shu Xiaoxiao called out softly as soon as she saw Jiang Yuan’s gaze turn her way.

Jiang Yuan rose from the ground and spoke lightly, "Invite the Sect Leader in!"

"Yes, Young Master!" Shu Xiaoxiao nodded repeatedly.

...

A moment later.

Dressed in a green robe with a face full of spring breeze, Lu Qingshan stepped into Jiang Yuan’s courtyard, to see Jiang Yuan sitting in the pavilion.

"Sect Leader, please take a seat!" Jiang Yuan gestured with his hand.

Lu Qingshan took his seat with a joyful expression on his face.

Looking at Jiang Yuan in front of him, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride.

Who could have imagined that a common disciple who joined the Supreme Mystery Sect by chance years ago would now become a major player in the Great Dao, controlling the fate of the world?

Although the current Supreme Mystery Sect was an inconspicuous existence in the Eastern Region,

Because of Jiang Yuan, that was no longer the case.

Even a Holy Land of cultivation would now struggle to be mentioned in the same breath as the Supreme Mystery Sect.

The core reason for this was the seemingly ordinary man sitting before him.

Thinking of this, he felt waves of emotion in his heart.

He was mostly aware of the events of those days.

Logically speaking, if nothing unexpected had happened, Jiang Yuan should have joined the sect that was rival to the Supreme Mystery Sect, the Sunset Sect.

If that were the case, following that trajectory,

it would be the Sunset Sect standing in the place of the Supreme Mystery Sect today, and the latter would have become a mere ripple in the torrents of history, not even worthy of being called a wave.

Fortune had it that he joined the Supreme Mystery Sect instead.

As a result, due to Jiang Yuan’s presence, a series of changes befell the Sect, and it eventually leapt to a transcendent status within the Qianyuan Kingdom.

It was truly a twist of fate, elusive and unpredictable.

Thinking of this, a sense of pride filled him again.

If it had not been for Uncle Master Kong Nian and himself insisting on standing by Jiang Yuan and supporting him, where would the Supreme Mystery Sect’s fortune be?

The current state of the Sect owed much to his efforts as well.

Even if one day he were to become a ritual officer in the Ancestral Hall of the Sect, he would surely be able to occupy a place in the second row, just below the Grand Master.

Meanwhile,

Jiang Yuan, observing the changing expressions on Lu Qingshan’s face, couldn’t help but smile wryly.

"Sect Leader, what’s the matter?"

"Why remain silent and yet wear such strange expressions?"

Hearing these two questions, Lu Qingshan immediately snapped back to reality with a sheepish laugh, looking somewhat embarrassed.

He then said, "Nothing much, seeing you today just made me feel quite sentimental! Who would have thought that a common outer sect disciple from the Supreme Mystery Sect would become a central figure in controlling the world’s fate."

Hearing these words, Jiang Yuan’s thoughts involuntarily went back to a few years ago.

To the time when he first entered the Supreme Mystery Sect.

Back then, he had the token left by his father, Tantai Ming’s token, to seek admission.

He had thought that with his father’s former lover in the Sect, he would receive care and it would be a good place to be.

But Tantai Ming was no longer the person she had been, and conversely, this had created a rift between them.

Fortunately, there was the kindness of the elder Kong Nian.

At this thought, Jiang Yuan said with some emotion, "If it weren’t for Elder Kong Nian’s care, and the Sect Leader’s subsequent support, how would I be where I am today!"

Lu Qingshan shook his head, "Uncle Master Kong Nian indeed took great care of you and even protected you from the shadows once!"

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, not forgetting the enemy from the Divine Bridge Realm he had encountered after emerging from the little world of the Enlightened Monk’s legacy.

If it hadn’t been for Kong Nian’s covert protection, he truly would have been in danger that day.

Lu Qingshan continued, "As for me, I was just doing what I should do! As the Sect Leader of the Supreme Mystery Sect, in charge of the entire sect, I naturally have to consider the Sect’s interests without bias or skew."

"Standing on your side and supporting you was indeed part of my duties!"

"The Supreme Mystery Sect is divided into seven branches, and the inherent risks were too great!"

"Those Sect Leaders favoring their own branch and considering their interests is inevitable, after all, men of great virtue are rare!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

He then pushed the wine Shu Xiaoxiao had poured to Lu Qingshan’s front and gestured with his hand.

"Sect Leader, try this!"

"Alright!" Lu Qingshan picked up the cup in front of him and took a light sip.

The next moment.

He closed his eyes slightly, his breath fluctuating.

After about the time it takes for half a cup of tea to steep, he slowly opened his eyes.

"Wonderful stuff!" he exclaimed with appreciation, "This sip, first a blend of ice and fire, and then as soothing as sweet rain, has considerably strengthened my Primordial Spirit Strength."

"What is this brewed from?" Lu Qingshan inquired.

Jiang Yuan smiled, "It’s a celestial treasure I cultivated in my inner world, designed to make even mortals withstand its potency!"

Lu Qingshan was stunned by this revelation.

After a few moments of silence, he shook his head slowly, "An inner world, specifically cultivated celestial treasures... This is beyond my comprehension!"

As he finished speaking, he gave a wry smile, "Indeed, you have reached a height I cannot comprehend. No wonder all these great figures I’ve never heard of have been visiting these days."
