Myriad Dragon Divine Sovereign

Chapter 619: Chapter 628: Pavilion Master of Taiyi Pavilion

Wen Qingye ignored the crowd’s cold remarks and said to Chuu Guang, “Martial Uncle Chuu, I’ll see you on Danxuan Peak tomorrow.”

With that, without waiting for Chuu Guang to refuse, Wen Qingye calmly made his way toward the foot of the mountain.

Sun Li saw this and quickly hurried to catch up.

“Junior Brother, Junior Brother! You’ve always been so calm and reserved, but you’ve made a serious misstep this time. That Chuu Qi is the Peak Master of Danxuan Peak! Not only is his Alchemy Dao incredibly formidable, but Danxuan Peak controls the pill supply for everyone in our Celestial Profound Sect. Even the pills for you True Disciples have to pass through their hands. Their power is so immense, it’s practically heaven-reaching…”

A smile touched the corners of Wen Qingye’s lips, but he didn’t say a word.

He was well aware of Danxuan Peak’s status and importance; that was precisely why he intended to compete with Chuu Qi. He was going to set everyone on Danxuan Peak on the right path.

Wen Qingye didn’t make a move lightly, but when he did, it was with thunderous force. He would make the entirety of Danxuan Peak submit—submit at his feet.

Wen Qingye’s “bold declaration” quickly spread throughout the Celestial Profound Sect. The news swept over them like a storm, reaching nearly everyone at once.

Nearly everyone thought the matter was utterly absurd, a complete joke.

On Forget-Life Peak.

Yum Baobao was sitting on the grass, a strange cord looped around her hand. In front of her was a small crane. Its feathers were immaculate, its bearing spirited, and its eyes bright. The long cry it suddenly let out was crisp and clear.

“Baobao! Baobao!”

Just then, a lovely figure rushed over from the distance. It was none other than Mo Qing from Chaotian Peak.

When Yum Baobao saw Mo Qing rushing over, her expression grew anxious. She hugged the little crane, stood up, and said, “What’s wrong? What do you want with Baobao? Baobao isn’t giving you Crane-baby!”

Mo Qing quickly waved her hands. “I’m not here for your Zhu Linghe! You know what? Brother Wen is back!”

“Really? Are you sure? You’re not tricking Baobao, are you?” A look of wild joy flashed in Yum Baobao’s eyes, and she immediately dropped the little Zhu Linghe.

The little Zhu Linghe tumbled to the ground with a look of grievance on its face, but its little master didn’t seem to notice at all.

Mo Qing nodded again and again. “I’m not tricking you! And what’s more, on Danxuan Peak, Brother Wen is apparently going to compete in alchemy with that old geezer, Chuu Qi!”

Hearing this, Yum Baobao excitedly pumped her little fists and shouted, “Yay! I’m definitely going to be there to cheer him on! Brother Wen is sure to win!”

“Yeah, let’s go watch tomorrow,” Mo Qing said, equally excited.

Danxuan Peak.

Miaoxuan looked at the impassive Chuu Qi before her and asked slowly, “Senior Brother, Wen Qingye has publicly challenged you. What are your thoughts?”

“Wen Qingye?” Chuu Qi waved a hand dismissively. “If he wants a challenge, let him have it. He’s just a disciple. It’s normal to be young and reckless. In fact, it would be strange if he wasn’t.” Then, he turned to Xi Yuheng, the head disciple of Danxuan Peak, who stood beside him. “Prepare the ingredients for the Primordial Pill I’ll be refining tomorrow. I’m going to get some rest.”

“Yes, Master,” Xi Yuheng replied with a respectful nod.

Chuu Qi nodded and walked out of the hall.

Miaoxuan watched Chuu Qi’s departing figure and couldn’t help but chuckle. ‘He’s even bringing out his specialty, the Primordial Pill. Even if Wen Qingye loses, it will be an honorable defeat.’

Xi Yuheng, who was standing nearby, nodded emphatically. Although Chuu Qi acted indifferent, he clearly took Wen Qingye very seriously. His decision to refine the Primordial Pill was proof enough.

The Primordial Pill was one of the most remarkable pills within the Low-Level Spirit Grade. Not only was the success rate for refining it extremely low, but its ingredients were also incredibly precious. Chuu Qi’s willingness to refine this pill tomorrow was a clear indicator of the importance he placed on Wen Qingye.

Within half a day, the news had spread through all Seven Peaks. Everyone was eagerly anticipating the “competition” the next day.

Even though most believed Wen Qingye’s chances were slim, it didn’t stop them from looking forward to it.

…..

Taiyi Pavilion, atop Taiyi Peak.

Beside Celestial Punishment Cliff, clouds and mist swirled endlessly, casting a vast, hazy pallor over the world.

A middle-aged woman in a Daoist Robe stood at the cliff’s edge, her shining eyes fixed on the view before her. If Wen Qingye had been present, he would have recognized her instantly.

She was Shen Junru, the Taiyi Pavilion Elder who had taken Zhang Xiaoyun away all those years ago.

Nearby, an elderly man with a kindly face sat on a stone chair, holding a cup of tea. He exuded an aura of calm, steady power.

Shen Junru turned her head, her brow furrowed. “Senior Brother, is this news true?”

In all of Taiyi Pavilion, there was only one person Shen Junru addressed as Senior Brother: the Pavilion Master, Huangfu Yiye.

Huangfu Yiye smiled faintly. “Of course, it’s true. It’s absolutely certain, without a shred of falsehood.”

Shen Junru said hurriedly, “The winds of change are blowing in the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty! This is a golden opportunity. If we can pull them to our side, I believe the entire Eastern Profound Domain will be within our grasp. But now is a critical moment. We absolutely cannot let Little Tian return.”

Huangfu Yiye shook his head. “No. The Profound Light Cave is about to open. I believe this is an excellent opportunity for Little Tian to advance his Taiyi Heartless Dao another step. It cannot be delayed. I plan to recall him from the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty in half a month.”

Shen Junru’s brow remained tightly knitted. “But if you recall him, who will you send as his replacement? The situation in the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty is so delicate. It’s bound to become a nexus for powers from every direction, teeming with experts.”

Huangfu Yiye said, “Let Hai Ning go. I have just as much confidence in him. I’ve already instructed him to set out for the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty in ten days.”

“Him?” Hearing Hai Ning’s name, Shen Junru’s expression eased, and she nodded, visibly relieved.

Shen Junru looked down, thinking for a moment, then continued, “If we can win over the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty this time, it will certainly be a major breakthrough for the Taiyi Pavilion’s expansion of power.”

Huangfu Yiye shook his head and smiled serenely. “A breakthrough? I’ve never been short of those,

“But…”

“Are you thinking of those two, Wei Tianya and Gu Yifeng?”

“It’s not just them.” Shen Junru nodded, then suddenly seemed to recall something. “Oh, right. When I returned from Yihai Country half a month ago, I encountered some mysterious experts. Their strength was considerable, yet I had no idea who they were. Also, I get the feeling that the Daoist School of Non-action has been unusually restless lately. I suspect they’re plotting something big.”
