Chapter 93
Just moments before Dong Zongying activated the copper token.
Far away from the Arcane Mountain, in a domain that greatly contrasted the Ardent Yin Sect, was the Serene Region, home to the Serene Yang Sect. Instead of the bitter cold and endless snow, this place was filled with beaming rays of sunlight that brought along a scorching temperature and stuffy atmosphere,
The Serene Yang Sect sat on a large platform that looked like it was scooped out from the earth. It floated high above the clouds and was seemingly trying to be as close to the sun as possible.
Despite being exposed to the extremity all year round, the land here was surprisingly lavish. The plants and animal life appear to thrive off of this environment as they were flourishing.
Clean marbled buildings were uniformly erected throughout the grounds.
There was one in particular that stood out from the rest, being much grander and taller in appearance. It was located in the central part of the land and was easily distinguishable.
The courtyard of this building was quiet due to the absence of people and a sense of peace was oddly instilled into the air because of it.
A sign was hung on top of the entrance, it read, Fervid Tranquil Hall. This wasnt a place that anyone could just visit as this was actually the residence of the Sect Master of the Serene Yang Sect.
Two people were currently inside this building having a discussion.
Grand Elder, is the Young Lady still in seclusion?
A mature man asked while seated on a golden throne. At first glance, there was an obvious juxtaposition between his aura and appearance. His features can be described in one word, fierce. His black hair resembled a burning flame and his bushy brows were aggressively slanted to the point where he looks perpetually angry, and yet, the composed air he gives off made him appear quite steady.
This person was Hao Boqin, the Sect Master of the Serene Yang Sect, and if a certain couple was here, they would perhaps notice the differing qualities between this man and Shao Qinglian of the Ardent Yin Sect,
Their appearance and aura were the complete opposite of one another!
The other person in the room, the Grand Elder, clothed in his red and silver robe, nodded his head in response to the question.
Yes, she is, he said with a bit of hesitation.
Hao Boqin noticed it immediately and knew the cause of it, but he still asked, What do you wish to say?
The Grand Elder sighed, Sect Master, I understand Lady Hong Tian has a great background but for you to allow her to see our sacred cultivation method, the Frost Inflamed Art, it is too much. This was something created by our Founder, its importance has no equal in the Serene Yang Sect. Lady Hong Tian, in the end, is not an official disciple nor will she stay here long, so for her to see our greatest secret sigh. While the other Elders have not said anything, its obvious that they are dissatisfied with your decision.
Hao Boqin listened quietly.
Is that right? The Grand Elder was surprised, I hadnt noticed it at the time
The Young Lady has connections to us and shes also from above, perhaps she is merely taking back what belonged to her
Hao Boqin sighed, With the threat of the Graha on our head, its best not to offend a faction from the Upper World. Id rather give up the Frost Inflamed Art than see Mortal Desolate face total destruction.
Sect Master
A sense of respect welled up in the Grand Elders heart. It looks like he, along with the others, had misunderstood the Sect Master.
Hao Boqin suddenly roared in laughter, Besides, its not like were the only one losing out.
What do you mean?
The Young Ladys stay here is only temporary. After shes done studying the Frost Inflamed Art, she will make her way to the Ardent Yin Sect to take a look at their Flame of Ice Scripture.
Hao Boqin savagely grinned, At that time, I will personally escort the Young Lady there. I wonder how Shao Qinglian will look when shes forced to give up their sacred scripture!
GURRARARA!
The Grand Elder stared at the enthusiastic Hao Boqin. Upon seeing the ugly expression he was making as he laughed, the Grand Elder inwardly shuddered.
Uh, Sect Master, please calm down. Your spit is falling on me.
What!? Dont ruin my mood, Grand Elder!
GURARA!
As Hao Boqin was drowning the Fervid Tranquil Hall in saliva, his expression unexpectedly changed.
He took out a copper token from his spatial ring and it was at this time that a familiar red pillar shot out from it.
In just a short moment, the sky changed color and the entire Serene Region was dyed crimson.
