At the White Moon Lake, on a small island in the lake, Baizhi sat in a pavilion with a middle-aged man.
Behind Baizhi was a person in black robes, and across from her was a young woman.
At this moment, the two people sitting were looking at the sky.
It wasn’t clear what they were thinking.
After a long time, the middle-aged man said, “Elder Baizhi, what do you think?”
Nangong Wenwu, one of the elders of the Blackheaven Sect, had a high status. This time, he was here to represent the Blackheaven Sect.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have the honor of being personally received by Baizhi, the acting Sect Master.
“Elder Nangong, have you noticed it?” Baizhi smiled softly. “I wonder if these people are targeting our Heavenly Note Sect or your Blackheaven Sect.”
“It’s also possible that they want to participate.” Nangong Wenwu smiled.
“Their method is so obvious. They probably are deliberately informing us of their arrival, right? Or are they warning our Heavenly Note Sect?” Baizhi looked at the man in front of her with a smile.
“Haha.” Nangong Wenwu laughed lightly. “Perhaps because the reputation of Heavenly Note Sect has been on the rise lately. There are rumors outside that the Heaven Lock Technique is appearing. They may have set their eyes on this place. We have all seen the anomaly. Elder Baizhi, do you think they are warning the Blackheaven Sect not to meddle?”
Baizhi smiled. “Elder Nangong, can you tell whose technique this is? As a junior, my knowledge may not be as good as yours.”
“Haha… I think it should be some kind of curse.” Nangong Wenwu thought for a moment.
“Well, that’s a start.” Baizhi nodded. “I don’t know who will be affected the most if they continue this.”
“The exchange between sects will definitely affect both sides.” Nangong Wenwu sighed.
“I heard that the Xuanyuan Clan is on the rise. Won’t that have a greater impact?” Baizhi poured tea for Nangong Wenwu.
“On the rise?” Nangong Wenwu looked a little puzzled and nodded. “It is indeed true, but their rise has little to do with this exchange.”
“Yes, not much.” Baizhi took a sip of the tea and stared at the man in front of her. “I wonder if it will affect the appearance of the Grand Earth Sovereign.” When Nangong Wenwu heard that, he froze for a moment.
But he quickly regained his composure and drank his tea. “Elder Baizhi, what do you mean? Can you explain?”
“Let me think about it first.” Baizhi drank her tea. “Why did the Blackheaven Sect choose our Heavenly Note Sect for the exchange? Is it not better to choose other major sects like Sunset Immortal Sect, the Wind Lightning Sect, or others? Why come to such a remote place? Is it because you think Heavenly Note Sect has a mining area, and beneath the mining area are buried treasures? We even had conflicts with the Saint Bandits recently, and the Sea Fog Cave may be connected to the depths of the sea. Then, there’s Devil’s Den, which is quite mysterious. Of course, most importantly, the Heavenly Note Sect has the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower. If these things were just the reason, it might not matter, but when you add them all together, there is reason to believe that there is a gathering of special aura here. So, for a Grand Earth Sovereign to awaken, wouldn’t this be a great place?”
Nangong Wenwu wasn’t smiling anymore. He put down the teacup.
He was surprised. He thought this exchange would end even before it officially began.
However, Baizhi’s last sentence surprised him.
“The Heavenly Note Sect can fully cooperate and even help guide you with the awakening of the Grand Earth Sovereign.”
Those words left Nangong Wenwu astonished.
The young woman standing behind him was also shocked.
Why would the Heavenly Note Sect agree to this?
The appearance of the Grand Earth Sovereign was not something small.
She wanted to ask why, but she couldn’t.
Nangong Wenwu also wanted to ask the same questions, but he didn’t. Instead, he asked about something else.
“Elder Baizhi, how do you think we should proceed?”
“Is this rain directed at the Blackheaven Sect?” Baizhi smiled and asked.
“Yes.” Nangong Wenwu nodded. “After a while, the Blackheaven Sect will send some strong individuals here. They’ll follow the Heavenly Note Sect’s instructions, of course. They will also provide many treasures, pills, and spiritual stones as an apology.”
“Our sect’s foundation is lacking, and it is quite difficult to teach many disciples.” Baizhi sighed.
“Our Blackheaven Sect has some idle people who want to teach disciples, and we also have some resources. I don’t know if your esteemed sect would find it acceptable. We also don’t know how to arrange these resources, so we hope for your help,” Nangong Wenwu said.
“Then, we’ll respectfully accept your offer.” Baizhi nodded with a smile. “Our sect has a formation that can mobilize various treasures. Perhaps it can make the aura more noticeable, but it consumes a lot.”
“We, the Blackheaven Sect, will bear the burden for the smooth exchange of disciples between sects,” Nangong Wenwu said.
After that, they talked a bit more. Baizhi’s proposals were not unreasonable, and Nangong Wenwu agreed to all of them.
After everything was settled, Nangong Wenwu finally asked what he had been wanting to ask.
“Elder Baizhi, aren’t you worried?”
“Worried about what?” Baizhi asked in return.
“The appearance of the Grand Earth Sovereign,” Nangong Wenwu said.
Baizhi smiled and recalled the Sect Master’s words.
Her expression was calm, and her tone was indifferent. “What about it?”
After the heavy rain, Jiang Hao noticed that many people from the Blackheaven Sect had arrived.
There were a lot of them.
There were countless powerful individuals, each of whom seemed to be able to overpower him.
With so many powerful individuals walking into the sect so arrogantly, it made people uneasy.
If they started fighting inside, the Heavenly Note Sect would suffer a great loss.
Elder Baizhi wasn’t foolish. She wouldn’t put them in a precarious situation.
Whatever he could think of, the Sect Master would have thought about it as well.
But they still proceeded this way. It indicated that there must be some vested interests involved.
As the powerful individuals entered, the people from the Blackheaven Sect became more active, especially those who were keeping an eye on him.
This time, it was different from last time. Someone was really keeping an eye on him.
It seemed like they were waiting for the right moment to strike.
Jiang Hao saw even more people coming, and one of them was particularly familiar, but the person looked unfamiliar.
It seemed to be the person who was keeping an eye on him.
That person walked toward him. He was flanked by two Primordial Spirit Realm experts.
Although the eye contact was brief, Jiang Hao knew that this person was going to act tonight.
‘Tonight, I’ll find a place with no one around when I go back.’
He didn’t want to go through all this trouble, but dragging things out wasn’t an option either.
“Friend Jiang, it’s been a long time,” said a loud and clear voice.
At that moment, a handsome and imposing man walked over and stood in front of Jiang Hao. He was very courteous.
It was Xuanyuan Tai.
He was at the early stage of the Soul Ascension Realm.
His arrival drew everyone’s attention. Just standing there made him seem like an emperor.
Everything around him just faded in the background.
He was already the center of attention, and what was even more surprising was that he approached Jiang Hao..
