grasped at nothing in mid-air. A pill flew out from the furnace and landed in his palm.But at that moment, there was another loud "crack" as a second bolt of lightning descended from the heavens, onc...This sudden appearance, especially being alone, couldn't help but make Dao Tianyun and the other disciples of the Questioning Dao Sect startled.

Even Dan Daozi, who was about to leave, retraced his steps and turned to look with interest.

Those who can be addressed as distinguished guests by the Zhidao sect and welcomed with the sound of bells must be major forces equal to the Zhidao sect in power.

For example, the other eight major sects, such as Lei Ji Tian, Jiang Yao Tian, Dao Shen Dian, and so on.

But whenever such forces hear the welcoming bell chime, they will deliberately slow down and wait until the chime is finished before formally entering to inquire about the master of the sect.

And since these powerful factions sent representatives to attend the grand competition, it's certain they wouldn't come alone. They would definitely bring along numerous disciples or subordinates.

However, this esteemed guest, whose appearance was still unknown to the crowd, arrived alone and appeared to be in a hurry. He did not wait for the bell to finish ringing before entering the main hall of the question-master's temple.

No matter who it was, once the bell rang, Dao Tianyun naturally wouldn't be negligent. He straightened his clothes, clasped his hands together in a fist salute, and prepared to greet the visitor.

When he finally saw who it was, his whole body stiffened like lightning had struck him. His expression and posture froze again.

It wasn't just him; anyone who recognized this person was now wearing the same expression. Even Dan Daozi had a look of surprise on his face.

But those who did not know him wore furrowed brows and expressions of suspicion.

Because in their eyes, this ordinary man who stood alone in the middle of the Question Dao Sect didn't seem like someone important at all.

"Ding!"

Just then, the last chime of the bell fell.

Same nine tones!

Of course, this also means that this inconspicuous man, like the status of Dan Daozi, is also the master of a sect!

The sound of the bell also turned into clay, shaping the heavenly course of Dao Tianyun, who finally woke up.

Even so, he couldn't help but take a deep breath again with all his might. Then, with a voice trembling slightly, he bowed deeply to the middle-aged man in front of him and said: "Junior Dao Tianyun, pays respects to, pays respects to Sword Sect Master, Senior Jian!"

Sword Sect Headmaster!

He came, it is indeed the Sword Sect Master Jian Sheng!

Although he did not come alone, his heart was filled with nothing but swordsmanship.

He didn't care about any etiquette or ceremony. He didn't even wait for the elders and disciples of his own sect, let alone pay attention to the welcoming bell!

The title "Headmaster of the Sword Sect," these four characters, were like four massive boulders that crashed into everyone's hearts, causing a monstrous wave!

Now, those who previously didn't know this middle-aged man finally understand why they were so shocked when Dao Tianyun brought him here.

Though it's true that ordinary people rarely get to see the Sect Masters and Heavenly Lords, everyone knows something about their appearances.

Only the headmaster of the Jianzong Sect was like this. Not only were there very few people who had seen him, but even his appearance was something rarely heard about by others.

Firstly, because the headmaster of Jianzong's appearance is indeed ordinary and has nothing special about it;

Secondly, the Sword Sect Master has not left the Sword Sect for far too long.

Among all the forces in this world, no matter what grand event is held, the Sword Sect will at most send elders and disciples to attend. The sect master will never show up.

But no one expected that this time's grand competition within the Questioning Dao Sect would actually cause even the Sword Sect's Sect Master to descend in person!

And this is also the reason why Daitian Yun is so excited.

Within my own sect, the only people who could personally meet the Sword Sect Master besides my master and a few elders were me.

This is an incredibly high honor for me!

Therefore, Dao Tianyun, after completing the ceremony, still felt that it was not enough to express his respect for the Sword Sect Sect Master. He did not immediately straighten his bent body and continued, "Senior Jian's presence is truly an honor to the junior..."

However, before Dao Tianyun could finish his words, Jian Sheng unceremoniously interrupted, "No need for formalities. I ask you, where are the disciples of Shan Hai Wen Dao who have split their sect"

The swordsman's words fell silent, once again plunging the world into deathly stillness!

This statement of Jian Sheng's, compared to the shock everyone felt when Tian Yun revealed his identity just moments ago, was even more shocking!

The fact that the head of Yaodao Sect, Dan Daozi, wants to see disciples from the Shanhai Branch is shocking enough.

However, now even Jian Sheng, the headmaster of the prestigious Jian Zong sect, wants to meet the disciples of the Shan Hai Wen Dao branch.

Dan Daozi at least still exchanged pleasantries with Dao Tianyun, while Jian Sheng was too lazy to even exchange pleasantries. He went straight to the point and stated his purpose!

At this moment, Dao Tianyun's heart felt as if ten thousand ferocious beasts were trampling over it, making him want to curse.

Don't these Daozong sect masters have any brains They ran to their own Daozong, shouldn't they be there to pay respects

Why do they all have to come and see the Shan Hai School of thought

Even the elders of the main sect held the same thought.

As for the crowd from the Shan Hai Divided Sect, although they were equally shocked, they didn't show much excitement about it.

After all, they know nothing about the Yaodao Sect and Jianzong, and they don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing that such big figures want to see them!

"Hahaha!"

Just then, a burst of laughter suddenly erupted, the laughter coming from Dan Daozi!

A look of interest appeared on Dan Daozi's face as he gazed at Jian Shengdao: "Jian Dao You, it's been a long time!"

"Greetings, fellow cultivator! It's been a long time!"

Jian Sheng only then saw Dan Daozi. Although he had a proud personality, he still had some fondness for Dan Daozi, so he難得 politely nodded his head.

But that's all there is to it!

After finishing his words, the swordsman's gaze had returned to Dao Tianyun: "Didn't you hear what Jian said I want to see your Shan Hai branch disciples!"

Before the heavens could speak, Dan Daozi continued, "Sword Dao friend, please remain calm. Though many years have passed since we last met, it seems our purpose in arriving at this Wudao Sect is still the same."

The swordsman's gaze fell once more upon Dan Daozi and asked, "Dan Daozi, are you here for the sake of the Mountain-Sea Questioning Dao sect division"

"Could it be, Sword Daoist, that you've also come for this reason"

This conversation between the two sect masters was unintentional on the speaker's part, but attentive listeners caught its meaning!

They came here in person, not for the purpose of attending Wendaizong's Grand Competition, but specially for the Shanhai Wendaizong!

At this moment, Dao Tianyun's eyes suddenly twinkled. He cupped his fists and bowed to the two, saying, "Senior predecessors, I wonder if our Shan Hai Fen Zong has done anything to offend you both"

"If that is the case, then as the main disciple of this sect, I am willing to accept the punishment from both of you on their behalf!"

I have to say, Daitian Yun's words are very well-spoken.

To the uninformed, it would indeed seem like he's acting in the best interests of his disciples. Who would suspect that he's actually targeting and suppressing the Shan Hai branch everywhere he goes!

Moreover, this is actually Heavenly Fortune finding ways to investigate what these two are doing when they meet the disciples of the Shan Hai school and inquire about the Way.

Jian Sheng glanced at him and said, "This is none of your business. I'm asking you one last time, where are the disciples of Shan Hai Wen Dao"

Dan Daozi also took a step forward, coldly looking at Dao Tian Yun and saying: "Yeah, where are they"

"Clink clink clink!"

At the same time, accompanied by a series of crisp sword cries, Sword Sect's elder Daozi and twelve attendant swordsmen finally arrived.

Along with the disciples brought by Dan Daozi, all eyes were focused on Dao Tianyun!
