Chapter 142: 142: Impending Storm With the Snow Clan sending experts from their clan to the mortal realm, it wouldn't take long for them to know about the reason for the Xue Clan's destruction and who was involved in it. This investigation was personally led by Elder Xue Yan, who even brought a small group of four Peak Foundation cultivators with him when he headed to the land of mortals. Xue Lengya remained in the cultivation realm, waiting for the result of the investigation. Meanwhile, the news of the extermination of the mortal clan connected to the Snow Clan spread in the cultivation realm, and it didn't take long for the other big powers in the cultivation realm to hear about it. This news even reached the Heavenly Sword Sect specifically, the mountain peak where Tan Bingyu used to be as a disciple. --- Heavenly Sword Sect. Three Swords Mountain Peak. Unlike the territory of the Snow Clan located in an icy mountain range, the Heavenly Sword Sect is located in a small world that can only be entered using a special space gate that can only be utilized by the people from the sect. There are 13 mountain peaks in the Heavenly Sword Sect, and each mountain is headed by an innateness sword cultivator. At Three Swords Peak, Disciple Qi Shiru, the junior brother of that female disciple who used to be close to Tan Bingyu, had run back to his mountain peak to inform his senior brother and senior sister about that news from the Snow Clan. He returned to see his senior sister and senior brother sparring with their swords. He shouted as he climbed up the mountain, "Senior Brother! Senior Sister! Big news. The Snow Clan is on the move! They've sent experts to the mortal realm!" Upon hearing such bad news from their junior brother, their sparring abruptly stopped and they decided to ask more about this situation. With a frown on his face, the senior brother of the Three Swords mountain peak, Mo Jue, said, "Is this true?" "Xiao Shi, did you hear why the Snow Clan sent some of their experts to the mortal realm?" asked Fu Lili, the senior sister of Qi Shiru. While still out of breath, Qi Shiru shook and nodded his head as if he were a chicken pecking rice on the ground. "It's true. I saw them flying in the direction of the transportation gate. The group was led by Elder Xue Yan himself. Maybe Xue Lengya gave them the command to come to the mortal realm. I heard it was because the mortal clan of his mother was uprooted in the land of the mortals!" "If even Elder Xue Yan had come out, then things in the mortal realm wouldn't end simply," Mo Jue said. Fu Lili looked at her senior brother and asked worriedly, "Senior brother, the mortal realm won't fall in chaos, won't it?" "I don't know. The group was led by an innateness cultivator after all. Unless another innateness cultivator stops them, then there will definitely be deaths," said Mo Jue. Qi Shiru mumbles, "Does that mean the Divine Doctor would be in danger as well? Maybe not. That man beside him was so powerful after all." Fu Lili said, "How about I send some message to Senior Sister Tan? At least warn them not to get involved with the cultivators the Snow Clan had sent out." "Let's also send some to the Crimson Cloud Auction Hall and make them pass a message to the Divine Doctor as well. We still owe them a lot after all," Mo Jue said. Fu Lili said, "I will prepare the letter immediately." --- On the other hand, in the Starfield Sect. The Starfield Sect is located on a floating island located in space. Their sect is located at the boundary of the cultivation realm and the pathways to the space and world beyond. Their sect is inclusive and can hardly be visited by outsiders. Only those who received an invitation from a diviner can be invited to their sect. The stars and moon revolve around the sect, and they are protected by a formation that hides them from the eyes of the heavens as they try to peek at it. The Sect Leader is quite a handsome uncle, but in reality, his age is just the same as Great Elder Xia. As for why the great elder didn't make himself look younger, he wanted to match his wife, who was already a grandma at her age. In the whole Starfield Sect, only the Great Elder Xia looked like a dignified old man, while most elders, including the sect master, retained their youth. They finally received a message from the Great Elder about his plan to leave the sect. The Sect Master remained calm upon seeing the letter, while the other elders looked enraged at this sudden decision from their great elder. The sect master and the elder of the Starfield sect gathered in the main hall because of this. "Sect Master, you can no longer spoil the Great Elder! Look what he is doing! He even wanted to leave the sect now!" "That's right! He should be punished! Don't he care for his face as the sole Great Elder of the Starfield Sect?" "Why did he even go to the Mortal Realm again!?" "Maybe he came to find his mortal family?" "Why care about those short-lived mortals!? He is an embarrassment!" "Why don't we let him go for a while? Once he got bored and his mortal family all passed away, he would definitely come back anyway." "Why is that even an option? He had changed a lot after mingling with the mortals once; would he get worse if he stayed there for a second time? Sect Master, send me out; I will definitely bring the Great Elder back." "Make sure to bring over Elder Kun as well. Those two would always cause mischief together." The Sect Master, Xing Qiuya, didn't comment much about the exchange between the elders of the sect as he scrutinized the content of the letter written by Xia Lianyu to him. Xia Lianyu and him were actually disciples of the same master. Their master is the previous sect master, who had passed away from failing to ascend to immortality. The heir to the Sect Master's seat was originally for his senior brother, Xia Lianyu. But after he got injured and suffered in the mortal realm, he got too involved with the mortals, which angered their master and stripped him of his title as the heir. When their master died, the two of them were summoned, and the seat was originally to be given to Xia Lianyu. Unfortunately, Xia Lianyu declines it without listening to the words of their master and returns to his abode without turning back. His senior brother was imprisoned by their master at the back of the of the mountain for falling in love with a mortal, and Xia Lianyu's heart had turned into stone when their master prevented him from returning to his family. This is also why his senior brother didn't accept the position of the Sect Master of Starfield Sect, no matter how much their master insisted that he have it. In the end, the Sect Master position was passed to him. His master, at the last moment, informed him about the secret of his last divination. He said that Xia Lianyu must not be allowed to detach himself from the sect. Since he didn't want the Sect Master position, give him a prominent title to tie him into the Sect. It seems that his master had divined that the destruction and prosperity of the sect were tied to his senior brother. This is the reason, Sect Master Xing keeps an eye close to the actions of the Great Elder, no matter what he does. The Sect Master of the Starfield Sect said, "No need. There is no need to bring him back. His things are still within the sect. He will come back on his own when that time comes. Instead, there is something that I need to inform everyone. It was about my master, the former Sect Master of this Starfield Sect." Xing Qiuya decided to inform the elders about what his master had told him before he died. He wanted them to understand the meaning of his indulgences towards the Great Elder and why they couldn't use force to bring him back to the sect. The elders were all speechless with what they had just learned. For those who believe in divination as something like edicts from the heavens, they would never reject the divination of the then-former sect master. The stronger the diviner is, the closer he is to the truth of the world. It seems that Great Elder Xia had a connection to something powerful that would affect the success and failure of their sect. This can only mean that if they dare to harm Xia Lianyu, the one who was prophesized to be his backer would definitely retaliate at them, which might lead to the destruction of the Starfield Sect. On the other hand, if they treated the Great Elder better, they might reap good things, which would help the sect become stronger. To compare which to choose between prosperity or destruction, of course, one would choose the former instead. Silence had descended in the hall after they heard the explanation from their sect master. An elder asked, "Does this mean he has someone backing him that can easily destroy our sect? Is that even possible!?" "What? Do you not believe the divination of the former sect master? He is the last Nascent Soul Cultivator of our sect, and his divination was said to have touched heaven itself!" "That's not what I mean. But... he keeps on getting involved with the mortals. Shouldn't one who got tainted by mortal things get weaker instead?" "That's right. Our Sect rules say that we cannot be tainted by material things or those from the mortal realm." "My master said that his background comes from his connection to the mortal realm. So, whatever it is he found in the land of the mortal made the master want to tie him to our sect," Sect Master Xing said. The elders could hardly believe the words of the sect master. After all, they had seen a lot of disciples who couldn't control themselves in the mortal realm and ended up losing their cultivation and becoming useless in the end. Just how is Great Elder Xia's situation different from those disciples? He is much worse, as he was directly involved with the mortals and even made a family with them. Nothing the awkwardness and incredulity within his sect elders; Sect Master Xing couldn't help but sighed. He himself actually doesn't completely believe that his senior brother had that kind of influence in their sect, but as his master's disciple, he can only comply with it. Sigh~ The Sect Master said, "Since there is nothing we can do about this, we can only wait for him to return and ask my Shixiong about it when he returns. For now, let us focus on the changes that will happen in our realm." "Yes, Sect Master!" The elders collectively responded.
