Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1228 - 536: The Departure of the Bigshot
Previously on Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill...
Aside from those Nascent Soul cultivators specializing in Thunder Skill, Li Yunjing is the best!
Half a year later, everyone received benefits from Li Yunjing, and their impression of the new Hall Master improved significantly.
"White Tiger Hall" and "Black Tortoise Hall" were thus stabilized by Li Yunjing.
When all affairs were settled, he made a trip to "Seven Star Palace," and finding nothing amiss, he sought an audience with Qin Jiuxiao.
However, his master was in seclusion and did not respond, leaving Li Yunjing no choice but to sigh and depart.
"Alas... Yunyi and Ruoxi’s matters cannot be delayed, better to ask the Sect Leader Venerable to preside!"
Thinking of this, Li Yunjing clenched his teeth and flew towards "Shenxiao Peak."
"Shenxiao Peak" is enveloped in clouds year-round, and seventy-two floating palaces are faintly visible in the morning glow.
Li Yunjing tread the flowing clouds, causing ripples to form in the Mountain Protection Array at the summit.
Yet, as Li Yunjing flashed the "Thunder Dragon Token," the array calmed without any further disturbance, acknowledging Li Yunjing’s qualification to fly through the skies.
The disciples guarding the mountain, seeing the Vice Sect Leader arrive, dared not slack and quickly conveyed news to the main hall.
"Yunjing, having managed both halls for two years, you’ve ingrained the spirit of White Tiger and Black Tortoise into the bones."
Ming Lingchuan sat gracefully on a jade throne, surrounded by a mysterious aura, and lightly chuckled upon speaking.
The others naturally dared not respond.
This was the Sect Leader Venerable’s assessment of Li Yunjing, and the others were not qualified to express anything.
Ming Lingchuan chuckled to himself, realizing he had spoken too much.
With a wave of his hand, the hall’s clouds surged, transforming into a translucent mirror wall, reflecting the indistinct tiger and dragon shadows behind Li Yunjing.
Clouds follow dragons, and winds follow tigers.
Li Yunjing, now imposing in his grandeur, arrives on a cloud, creating a storm as dragons roar and tigers growl—truly having the presence of a major figure.
No longer did he exhibit the young naivety once easily visible!
This is the transformation brought by power.
Unrelated to the level of cultivation!
Some powerless Supreme Elders would stand shorter beside Li Yunjing, their momentum not matching his.
This is change!
With head held high and chest out, walking dominantly, he entered the great hall.
"Greetings Sect Leader Venerable! Disciple has come today to report that the affairs of the two halls are on track, and secondly..."
He paused, his usually composed voice tinged with a hint of unease, "I implore the Sect Leader to preside over the grand marriage of Yunyi, Ruoxi, and myself."
The hall suddenly quieted, only the faint crackle of oil lamps filled the air.
Ming Lingchuan lightly tapped the jade armrest with his fingers, surprise flashing in his eyes, soon replaced by an understanding smile.
"I wondered what brought you here in such haste; turns out it was for the matters of love."
With a wave of his hand, he laughed lightly, "Yunyi and Ruoxi are both outstanding young women, earning their affection is indeed your fortune."
"Thank you, Sect Leader, for fulfilling this."
Li Yunjing bowed slightly, his ears reddening as this was his first time dealing with such matters, inevitably causing him some embarrassment.
"Rise."
Ming Lingchuan gestured with his hand, two jade teacups flew from his sleeve, the Spirit Tea within them rising in a hazy white mist, "Your stewardship of White Tiger and Black Tortoise Halls over these two years has been commendable. Secret Realm resource allocation was reasonable, improving disciples’ cultivation progress by thirty percent. Several Supreme Elders praised your skill in management."
He savored a sip from the teacup, "Yet, the Demon Dao’s recent frequent activity at the borders, and signs of an alliance forming between ’Cyan Nether Sect’, ’Blood Fiend Hall’, and ’Netherworld Ghost Sect’ warrant your attention."
"Disciple understands."
Li Yunjing’s expression stiffened: "After the grand marriage, I plan to head for ’Shenxiao Pass’. If the two Guardian Armies’ forces can be integrated, we will be more assured in dealing with external threats."
This was Li Yunjing’s next planned step; unexpectedly, before reaching the front lines to sweep through the demonic forces, these little clowns were banding together, showing signs of counterattack!
This stirred a murderous intent within Li Yunjing!
"Excellent! As expected of my ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’s’ Vice Sect Leader, always hitting the crucial points."
Ming Lingchuan clapped his hands and laughed heartily upon hearing this.
A recollective gleam danced in his eyes, "Years ago, when I and your master were young, we too were decisive and forceful. Alas..."
His words abruptly stopped; shaking his head, he heavily placed the teacup on the table, "Enough, let’s not dwell on past matters."
"Since you plan to marry, I will handle it in the sect’s name, hosting a grand feast at ’Rising Sun Peak’ a year later, letting the entire ’Great Ming Cultivation Realm’ witness this event."
Ming Lingchuan continued discussing Li Yunjing’s major affairs.
"Thank you, Sect Leader!"
Moved, Li Yunjing expressed his gratitude once more, "But organizing it so grandly may alarm various forces..."
"Let them be alarmed then."
Ming Lingchuan’s aura suddenly surged, the clouds outside "Shenxiao Peak" churning, "The joyful event of ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’, whoever dares cause trouble will be opposing me, Ming Lingchuan!"
He abruptly switched to a teasing tone, "It’s up to you to be cautious on the wedding night..."
Li Yunjing’s ears reddened, replying with "I dare not," prompting Ming Lingchuan’s laughter to resound through the hall.
The two discussed border situations and array improvements extensively, until dusk settled in, and Li Yunjing departed, bearing the wedding contract bestowed by the Sect Leader.
After leaving "Shenxiao Dao Sect," Li Yunjing boarded the "Celestial Patrol Ship," soaring brightly towards "Yue Ming City."
The massive ship cut through the sky as the "Celestial Patrol Ship" sliced through the clouds, the White Tiger and Black Tortoise emblems at the prow suddenly lighting up, releasing twelve golden beams that dyed the clouds for hundreds of miles around in a crimson gold hue.
Standing upon the deck, Li Yunjing’s "Jiuxiao Thunder Pattern Daoist Robe" fluttered fiercely, as two tokens at his waist shimmered with a ghostly glow.
