After Xuanyuan Changfeng arrived, he repeated Duan Liu's words, but when spoken by him, the seriousness of the matter became extraordinary.
What Duan Liu mentioned could be considered a minor issue for Ye Tian, as his status did not reach a core position. Therefore, the accuracy of the information was hard to fully trust. However, as a Master of the Pavilion, Xuanyuan Changfeng's words were undoubtedly the most accurate news.
"Master, this matter is so serious. What does the sect intend to do?" Ye Tian asked with a solemn expression.
"According to the sect leader's meaning..." Xuanyuan Changfeng glanced at Ye Tian and Duan Liu, his tone somewhat hesitant. It was clear that he did not fully understand or agree with the sect leader's decision.
"What does the sect leader mean?" Duan Liu inquired.
"The sect leader said... to mobilize all elite disciples of Cloud Sea Sect to head to Seamless Horizon!" Xuanyuan Changfeng said in a deep voice.
"All of them?" Ye Tian and Duan Liu were both startled. The mobilization of all elite disciples to Seamless Horizon implied that Cloudscar had placed the future of Cloud Sea Sect on this matter. This also reflected how seriously he regarded this issue.
For the sake of helping the world, Cloudscar's approach could not be deemed wrong. However, at this moment, both Ye Tian and Duan Liu shared Xuanyuan Changfeng's confusion.
After all, this world was not solely Cloud Sea Sect's domain; even Liezhuo City was merely a large city within Heavenly Zephyr Continent under Martial Sovereign. While there were claims of taking on the world's responsibilities, it was only natural for them to act selfishly. Cloud Sea Sect really did not need to contribute all its strength.
To put it bluntly, sects like Cloud Sea Sect were numerous within Martial Sovereign; there were at least eighty if not a hundred.
Moreover, there were several larger sects far surpassing Cloud Sea Sect in strength that had not made such an effort. Why should Cloud Sea Sect act so recklessly?
"Master, is the sect leader perhaps being overly considerate about this matter?" Ye Tian felt no need to hide anything from Xuanyuan Changfeng and directly asked.
Of course, this is not about looking down on others. At this moment, Cloudscar is not here; if he were, Ye Tian would probably ask him directly.
"Sigh, how could I, an old man, understand what the Sect Master is thinking?" Xuanyuan Changfeng sighed, his words carrying a hint of frustration.
Ye Tian and Duan Liu exchanged glances, neither of them spoke. They couldn't understand Cloudscar's decision, but they wouldn't voice any objections.
After all, as passionate young people with some strength, who wouldn't yearn for a grand display of swordplay? Perhaps that kind of scene is what they truly seek deep within their hearts.
In contrast, Xuanyuan Changfeng had long passed that age. He had to consider the long-term development of Cloud Sea Sect and some deeper factors.
Duan Liu couldn't think of these things, but Ye Tian could. However, understanding was one thing; opposing was another.
"Master, perhaps it would be good for us to go out and experience the world," Ye Tian suggested after a moment of thought.
"Experiencing the world is good, but it depends on the situation. The perilous conditions of Seamless Horizon cannot be called an experience," Xuanyuan Changfeng said with a serious expression. He had high hopes for Ye Tian; if he were to die in battle against Spirit Sect in Seamless Horizon, it would be something Xuanyuan Changfeng could not accept.
Ye Tian wanted to persuade him further, but just then, someone approached from outside the door.
"Could it be that the Sect Master has arrived?" Duan Liu muttered.
Creak...
The door was pushed open, but it was Qin Fufeng who walked in. He wore a serious expression on his face, and amidst that seriousness was an added touch of sorrow.
"Uncle Qin." Ye Tian and Duan Liu both greeted in unison.
Qin Fufeng casually waved his hand and said, "What have you decided?"
Ye Tian glanced at Xuanyuan Changfeng and replied, "Since the Sect Leader has given an order, we naturally will not disobey."
"Sigh..." Xuanyuan Changfeng let out a breath, not saying anything further. This was similar to the idea that a young woman should not stay behind. Not only Ye Tian and Duan Liu, but the other three elite disciples of Cloud Pavilion shared the same sentiment; who wouldn't want to venture out and make a name for themselves, to be remembered by others in the future?
However, Ye Tian was not driven by such thoughts. Unlike Duan Liu, he wanted to go to Seamless Horizon primarily to gain a deeper understanding of Spirit Sect. After all, his mother was a spiritual practitioner, and she had once instructed him to seek out someone named "Yu Ning Tian" if he had the opportunity and sufficient strength.
Clearly, he could now be considered to have enough strength; at least, as long as things didn't go too far, he should have no problem protecting himself.
As for opportunities, perhaps this trip to Seamless Horizon was a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
Thus, Ye Tian would not let this great opportunity to unravel the mystery of his origins slip away.
"Since you have already made your decision, let's head to Main Peak Hall immediately," Qin Fufeng said.
"So soon?" Ye Tian and Duan Liu were taken aback. Although they were absolutely determined to go, they never expected it would be so urgent.
"That's right, there's no time to waste. I came here thinking that Xuan Yuan Senior Brother wouldn't let you go and was prepared to persuade him. But since that's not the case, let's hurry; Cold Moon and Yun'er are already waiting there," Qin Fufeng said.
"In that case, we will set off right away." Ye Tian and Duan Liu exchanged glances and nodded at each other.
Then, the two of them knelt three times before Xuanyuan Changfeng, as this journey held uncertain life and death; it was both an opportunity and a calamity. As for how it would ultimately conclude, that would depend on their fate.
Xuanyuan Changfeng sighed lightly, turned his back, and said nothing more, merely waving his hand to signal Ye Tian and Duan Liu to leave.
...
About half an hour later, Ye Tian and Duan Liu arrived at the Main Peak Hall with Qin Fufeng. By this time, over a hundred disciples had gathered there, all elite disciples from various Cloud Pavilions, including some well-known figures.
For instance, Himeka Myou from Azure Cloud Pavilion, Yue Lingwei from Falling Cloud Pavilion, and Thunderstorm from Cloud-Drifting Pavilion!
Three of the four chief disciples were present; as for the remaining one, Li Xun from Cloudscroll Pavilion, he was likely already battling in Seamless Horizon.
There was quite a distance between Thunderstorm and Ye Tian; however, he had long anticipated Ye Tian's arrival. Since they were in front of the main hall, he refrained from any excessive actions.
Nonetheless, it was evident from his eyes that he seemed to be saying that once they reached the desolate place of Seamless Horizon, he would definitely have a good "interaction" with Ye Tian.
Ye Tian avoided Thunderstorm's gaze. Of course, it wasn't out of fear; rather, Cold Moon and Yun'er were waving at him. Although Cold Moon had already ended things with Thunderstorm, they had shared a past together. Ye Tian did not want to confront Thunderstorm in front of Cold Moon.
Thunderstorm was the most renowned disciple of Cloud Sea Sect and had an unspoken reputation as the top disciple among Cloud Sea Sect's ranks. This fame was certainly not unfounded; he indeed possessed extraordinary strength.
However, with Ye Tian's arrival, this unshakeable notion began to change gradually. After experiencing so much, many people now believed that Ye Tian could stand toe-to-toe with Thunderstorm and even replace him as the top disciple of Cloud Sea Sect.
Ye Tian himself did not care much about these opinions. But others were not so indifferent; they were eager to witness the confrontation between Ye Tian and Thunderstorm, just as the disciples of Cloudscroll Pavilion were looking forward to the duel between Ye Tian and Li Xun.
However, the confrontation regarding Ye Tian has escalated from a rivalry to a full-blown conflict.
Seeing that Thunderstorm was not making any moves, the crowd inevitably felt a bit disappointed. Although Thunderstorm had a formidable reputation, not everyone was afraid of him.
At this moment, there were some individuals with ulterior motives trying to stir up trouble.
"Hey! Isn't that Ye Tian? He's here, which means he's come as the top disciple of Cloud Sea Sect to lead us to Seamless Horizon!" someone shouted loudly, ensuring that everyone in the hundreds present could hear.
You, Thunderstorm, don’t want to cause trouble? Then I’ll just take the opportunity to strike at you.
As soon as these words were spoken, others quickly joined in.
"What are you talking about? When did our Cloud Sea Sect's top disciple change his name? It should be Thunderstorm from Cloud-Drifting Pavilion!"
"Nonsense! Think about it; how long has it been since Thunderstorm did anything impressive? Meanwhile, Ye Tian seems to have explosive news about him almost every other day."
"That's true. It seems you have a point. Thunderstorm might be facing a bottleneck in his cultivation, and his progress has stalled."
"The saying 'the talent of Jiang Lang has run dry' must refer to Thunderstorm."
The two continued their banter without restraint. From a distance, Thunderstorm's face grew increasingly red, and those around him could clearly sense a strong surge of battle intent emanating from him.
"Both of you, stop talking nonsense and watch your words," a disciple from Cloud-Drifting Pavilion couldn't stand it any longer and stepped forward to say.
Once upon a time, the disciples of Cloud-Drifting Pavilion relied on the reputation of the Qiu Family's Twin Young Masters and Thunderstorm to dominate the Cloud Sea Sect. However, ever since Ye Tian appeared, this situation seems to have undergone a significant change. Now, Cloud-Drifting Pavilion is no longer superior.
"We have the freedom of speech, and besides, your Thunderstorm Senior Brother probably wouldn't want his title as the number one to be handed to him by others, right?" The person spoke sharply, countering the argument.
However, the intent behind his words was too obvious, and soon there were many boos from the crowd. Those who booed were righteous individuals who felt that with a great enemy at hand, it was foolish to still be entangled in internal strife.
At that moment, a figure suddenly emerged from within the hall.
As soon as the figure appeared, an overwhelming aura radiated from them, giving the impression of a divine weapon unsheathed, shining brightly across the land.
"All disciples, heed my command! Depart immediately for Seamless Horizon!"
The speaker was none other than Master of Yunhai Sect, Cloudscar. He was indeed a figure of sharp brilliance. Since he took power, there had only been two occasions when his brilliance was fully revealed.
The first time was when Thousand Clouds emerged and annihilated thousands of miles in Square Area.
This time, who knows what earth-shattering events might unfold...
