Li Che discusses the responsibilities of a Sect Master with his daughter Xi Xi, who is eager to take the position. While observing a potential threat involving an emperor and a magical artifact, Li Che enjoys a peaceful moment with his wife Zhang Ya. Days later, Li Che prepares to return to the Qian Yuan Divine Sect with his family for Xi Xi's succession ceremony, noting his Dao Fruit's slow progress. Xi Xi, disappointed at not yet reaching the Martial Saint realm, is cheered by the upcoming ceremony. The family then uses a powerful teleportation technique to return to Qianyuan Taoist City.

These auras remain in a sealed condition, concealed from the perception of Heaven and Earth's will.

It is evident that they are all converging towards the Miao Dao Xiansheng Three-Eyed True Monarch's Strange Temple...

The premature awakening of the Qitian Temple God has indeed set off a significant commotion.

Conversely, the situation within the Golden Light Prefecture is exceedingly grim; various factions have made their appearance, elevating the divine concentration of the Mansion City to even grander heights than Qianyuan Taoist City.

An overwhelming number of formidable masters had assembled!

However, the issue is not of great consequence.

Shaking his head, Li Che casually flicked his fingers, and with a swift movement, the individuals confined within Mo City Fengdu were liberated by Li Che.

"Wow—we're already here?"

Xi Xi blinked her eyes in surprise.

Gazing upon the now-familiar city, Xi Xi's eyes flickered. She pressed her lips together, and a radiant smile of joy bloomed across her face.

She had departed Qian Yuan at the tender age of seven for training.

Now, having surpassed the age of eight by more than half a year, she had come back to Qian Yuan.

More than a year had passed, during which Xi Xi had endured so much, making her cherish the days spent in Qian Yuan even more deeply.

Buzz—!!!

High above the celestial vault, streaks of sword light clashed and entwined, the sounds sharp and resonant.

Brilliant sword Qi surged across the sky.

Lv Taibai's silver hair flowed freely, his voluminous sleeves billowing, as he arrived, treading upon sword light, his eyes alight with exultant laughter.

"Hahaha! My cherished disciple has finally returned!"

"I have missed you desperately!"

Lv Taibai's hearty laughter boomed, its echoes reverberating throughout the entire city.

Within Qianyuan Taoist City, numerous powerhouses instinctively stirred their Heaven and Earth Souls, extending their senses outward.

The Daughter of Prison Lotus!

Among them, many hidden factions belonging to the All Gods Camp focused their attention, their Dao Souls quivering.

She had actually returned to Qianyuan Taoist City?!

Lv Taibai let out a cold snort, and as a storm-like sword intent swept through the city, it compelled the various probing Dao Souls to retract.

Lv Taibai extended a welcome to Li Che, Xi Xi, and the others back to the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, his imposing sword intent radiating an aura of supreme arrogance.

"There's no alternative; an excessive number of potent forces have converged upon Qianyuan Taoist City. Qianyuan Taoist City cannot afford to exhibit any diminution in its imposing presence... otherwise, should its momentum falter, these formidable factions would be quick to seize the opportune moment."

Lv Taibai declared with a cold snort.

Li Che offered a nod in agreement. When the time calls for strength, one must be assertive; a soft persimmon is invariably the easiest to crush.

With Xi Xi's return to the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, a monumental shift was initiated.

"The Young Sect Master has returned!"

"Hahaha—Fellow disciples of the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, your Emperor Xi Xi has come back!"

The Qian Yuan Divine Sect vibrated with an unceasing fervor, and numerous disciples who had been engaged in secluded cultivation rushed out.

Lv Qingxuan, Yang Yi, Chi Chengyan, Zhuo Banxiang, and other prominent figures from the Chu Long List, all emerged from their respective seclusions.

These Chulong had, by this point, all successfully broken through to the Great Grandmaster realm, each radiating vitality and a formidable fighting spirit.

However, when contrasted with Xi Xi, who had attained the pinnacle of the Great Grandmaster realm, ignited the Three Flowers, and was now advancing towards the Martial Saint stage, they naturally seemed to pale in comparison.

Following Xi Xi's triumphant return, Lv Taibai commenced the preparations for Xi Xi's official succession to the position of Sect Master, initiating the ceremonial rites.

Lv Taibai gathered his formidable sword intent and launched himself outward, dispatching signals to the spies strategically positioned in various Divine Sect cities and the Imperial Capital. His directive was clear: to transmit the meticulously prepared sword intent invitations, summoning the Masters of various Divine Sects to grace the succession ceremony with their presence.

Upon her return to the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, Xi Xi's state of mind appeared to undergo a profound transformation.

The Three Flowers danced, Essence Qi blazed.

The entirety of the Qian Yuan Divine Sect was suffused with Essence Qi, surging like relentless tidal waves, and the will of Heaven and Earth roared and trembled in response!

The Martial Saint bottleneck, which had obstructed Xi Xi for countless days, was finally shattered upon her elegant homecoming.

Xi Xi did not let this precious, opportune moment pass!

With a singular, decisive action, brimming with indomitable fighting spirit, amidst a deafening thunderous roar...

She forcefully unlocked the Human Pill through her cultivated power!

An eight-year-old girl officially ascended to the Martial Saint realm!

...

...

The Great Scenic Divine Capital.

The Imperial Palace.

Cloud Palace.

The Emperor occupied the dragon throne, his resplendent yellow robe fluttering dramatically. Upon a countenance intricately woven with Divinity and Dao Yun, his eyes were filled with a chilling ruthlessness.

Rumble—

Temple Administration Governor Ye Pengju clenched his fist, intercepting a streak of sword light and suppressing a majestic aura.

He strode into the grand hall, unfolding the sword light to reveal the invitation to the sect's succession ceremony, which Lv Taibai had prepared well in advance.

It has long been the established custom for Divine Sect ceremonies to extend invitations to the royal family for their participation.

Despite the Qian Yuan Divine Sect having already severed ties with the Imperial Court, they still extended an invitation to the Emperor for their ceremony. In the Emperor's eyes, this move was nothing short of a blatant provocation.

With a fierce sweep of his sleeve, the Emperor unleashed a terrifying surge of power, shattering Lv Taibai's sword intent into countless pieces!

As the sword intent dissolved, residual sword Qi coalesced into a mocking character, "ha."

A cold laughter escaped the Emperor's lips. He once again flung his sleeve forcefully, signaling for Mr. Lian to depart the Cloud Palace with him.

Their destination was the Imperial Mausoleum.

Clenching his hand into a fist, a roaring Gathering Immortals Mysterious Banner materialized within his grasp.

Seated cross-legged beneath its expansive presence, the Black Robed Venerable slowly opened his eyes.

The Emperor's resplendent yellow robe billowed dramatically in the wind.

"I have reached an agreement. However, once the Supreme Xuanzhen has vanquished the Ghost Emperor, he must lend me his aid for a minor matter."

"Avenge me! Strike down Lv Taibai and claim his head!"

"Assist me in eradicating the Qian Yuan Divine Sect!"
