Chapter 173 - Sect Leader Ding Was Shocked

“You said that the sect has an honored guest? What honored guest is it?” Ding Xingbo began to ask about the situation.

“That… it’s the one from Reclining Firewood Peak. Oh no, Reclining Firewood Peak!”

Li Yuehe was halfway through her sentence. When she mentioned Reclining Firewood Peak, she seemed to have remembered something and looked anxiously at the things in her hands.

“Sect master, I have to deliver the things that Reclining Firewood Peak needs quickly. Sect Master Qing Cang is waiting for you in the main hall. Uncle, please atone for your sins. I will leave first.”

After saying that, she hurriedly left the main road.

Sect Leader Ding looked at her back in a daze.

Li Yuehe quickly arrived outside the main road of the main hall. She came to a place where she could ride a sword and turned into a rainbow.

“What does this mean? Could it be that during the days when I was not here, there were some new changes in the Hidden Edge Sect?”

Sect Leader Ding was a little confused. He continued to head to the main hall.

Unlike disciples like Li Yuehe, he was qualified to fly directly.

The reason why he did not need to fly was to meet a few more disciples and fellow disciples.

As he slowly walked forward, Sect Leader Ding finally met another person.

An elder of the Hidden Edge Sect rushed over from the mountain behind the main mountain range.

“Brother, Brother Shang Jing, you look pretty good today.”

As he spoke enthusiastically, Sect Leader Ding walked in front of his younger brother.

His aura was released slightly, and the space around him faintly had a strange fluctuation.

That was his strange aura as a powerhouse of the upper three realms.

“Ah, it’s the sect leader. Um, I still have something important to do, and I need to quickly go to Reclining Firewood Peak to send other people’s congratulatory gifts. You should quickly go to the main hall.”

Without waiting for Sect Leader Ding to take any action, Elder Shang Jing had already formed a sword seal and disappeared from the main branch.

“What is this? I’m the sect leader, and I’ve broken through my cultivation. Am I so inconspicuous?”

Sect Leader Ding, who had wanted to show off his cultivation in front of his fellow disciples and disciples, felt a chill in his heart.

“Sigh, forget it, forget it. After all, it’s Reclining Firewood Peak. It’s understandable. There’s an Emperor there now.”

He could still understand the reactions of his disciples and younger brothers.

He continued to slowly move towards his junior brothers.

In his field of vision, a middle-aged elder with a long sword on his back slowly appeared.

Sect Leader Ding’s face lit up.

“I have so many brothers, it can’t be that they are really ignoring me, right?”

He made his aura more obvious and happily walked towards his younger brother.

“Brother Lian Yun, Brother Lian Yun.”

In order not to miss the other party, Sect Leader Ding directly walked towards his younger brother, Lian Yun.

“Sect leader? Why are you still here?”

Sect Leader Ding was stunned.

‘Why does everyone feel that I shouldn’t be here? Then where should I be?’

Before he could say what he was thinking, Sect Leader Ding began to explain the situation.

“Haha, didn’t I just enter closed door cultivation to break through? I just came back.”

Sect Leader Ding was anxious from waiting, so he told him about his breakthrough.

But he did not expect that Lian Yun would not hear it at all. Instead, he talked about something else.

“What? Then doesn’t the main hall only need Abbot Qing Cang to receive guests?”

“Receive guests? What do you mean receive guests? Are there more guests? From the sacred lands?”

“Brother, sect leader, it’s not a guest from the sacred land, but an expert from the outer realm. There are quite a few quasi-emperors in the capital.”

Sect Leader Ding was completely shocked when he heard this.

“An expert from the outer realm? Quasi-emperor? I just went into closed-door cultivation. What on Earth is going on?”

“Aiya, older brother, sect leader, quickly go to the main hall. I also have to go outside to accept the congratulatory gifts from other forces.”

After saying that, Lian Yun hurriedly left as well.

Sect Leader Ding finally had some recollection.

First, something had happened to the Hidden Edge Sect, causing many foreign experts to come as guests.

Second, the Hidden Edge Sect did not have enough manpower. Even Lian Yun had to accept the congratulatory gifts.

Third, there was a joyous occasion.

After all, he had stayed in the position of sect leader for many years. Sect Leader Ding still quickly sorted out the situation.

Without any further delay, he quickly headed to the main hall.

When he arrived at the back of the main hall, he did not go in immediately. Instead, he used his flying sword to send a message and called out Abbot Qing Cang.

“Sect master, senior, you have finally come out.”

After waiting for a while, Abbot Qing Cang appeared at the back of the main hall.

“Eh, senior, you have actually broken through. Congratulations, congratulations.”

Upon hearing these words, Sect Leader Ding actually felt a faint heat behind his eyes.

Finally, someone noticed that I had broken through!

“Junior, what’s the situation now? I was still in closed door cultivation, so I don’t know what’s been going on outside.”

He was not happy for long, because he knew that the current situation was different, so he did not have time to waste.

“Senior, listen to me. I’ll explain the situation.”

Knowing that the situation wasn’t right, Qing Cang did not flatter him and directly started explaining the situation.

“First of all, this has to start from Ye Changge’s third disciple. She was once the strongest emperor, Heavenly Star Emperor.”

Sect Leader Ding didn’t expect that his junior’s first sentence would be such explosive news.

He was directly stunned by this sentence.

Qing Cang knew very well how he felt. After all, he was no different from the sect leader when he first heard this news.

“That day, an army of outer realm experts attacked. Many forces were very strong, and many experts from other worlds came to watch.”

“Ye Changge directly sent his third disciple to fight.”

“In that battle, his disciple fought against the formation of forty-nine quasi-emperors by herself.”

Upon hearing this, Sect Leader Ding could no longer remain calm.

“Is what you said true? One against forty-nine? The opponent has a battle formation? What battle formation?”

Qing Cang replied, “It’s like this. The battle formation of forty-nine quasi-emperors is the formation of the outer realm experts who once invaded.”

“It’s the formation of the quasi-emperors of the Blood Flame Sect who were once crushed to death by the Hidden Edge Emperor? Hasn’t that reached the Great Emperor Realm?”

“It’s even more terrifying than that. Our direct combat power is probably comparable to the two Emperors.”

“So, the third disciple of the Hidden Edge Emperor won just like that?”

Sect Leader Ding couldn’t imagine it.

“Could it be that she had already reached the Emperor Realm when she entered the battle, so she wasn’t afraid of her opponent?”

“No, the Heavenly Star Emperor was still at the Quasi-emperor Realm when she went to battle. She relied on the battle to break through.”

When he said this, Abbot Qing Cang’s face was filled with admiration.

After all, this matter was too shocking.

“When she broke through to the Emperor Realm, she said something, ‘I have returned to the Emperor Realm today.'”

“Because her characteristics were too obvious, countless people recognized her as Heavenly Star Emperor’s reincarnation.”

After hearing this, Sect Leader Ding completely understood what had happened.

Now, he understood why no one paid attention to his cultivation.

Having just seen the birth of the Emperor, who would be interested in caring about an upper three realms expert?
