Xu Tianyi walked through the tranquil courtyards of the Buddha Benevolent Sect. His steps are steady and purposeful.
Xu Tianyi made his way towards the grand hall where the Sect Leader Gong Xuanyan resided. Gong Xuanyan was known for his wisdom and strength, commanding respect from the Buddha Benevolent Sect elders and disciples.
As Xu Tianyi entered the hall, he respectfully bowed towards Gong Xuanyan, acknowledging his authority as the Sect Leader.
In the Buddha Benevolent Sect, only Gong Xuanyan knows about Xu Tianyi origins, and how strong he is. The other elders or disciples only know him as the guardian of the Treasury Hall.
Gong Xuanyan, greeted Xu Tianyi with a mixture of respect and curiosity. It is not normal for Xu Tianyi to visit him, as Xu Tianyi only has visited him only when necessary.
Thus, Xu Tianyi's unexpected visit piqued Gong Xuanyan's interest. Both of them exchanged pleasantries before Xu Tianyi told him about the purpose of his visit.
"Senior Brother Xu, what wind blew you here today?" Gong Xuanyan inquired.
Xu Tianyi's expression turned serious and said "how long has it been Gong Xuanyan? Do you know the technique that is in the Treasury Hall that has been left by the founding sect leader?"
"Left by the founding sect leader? You meant the Lightning Rush Technique? Yeah. What about it?" Gong Xunayan inquired, as no one has managed to learn the Lightning Rush Technique in almost 100 years.
"Well… It seems that someone has managed to learn this technique and possess the ability to use it." Chuckled Xu Tianyi as it is still unfathomable that someone is able to learn it.
Gong Xuanyan eyes widened in surprise, as the Lightning Rush Technique was a revered martial skill passed down through generations to generations. The power and speed were unmatched, and only the founder sect leader has successfully learnt it.
"Do you know who it is?" Gong Xuanyan inquired, curious to see if Xu Tianyi knows who is able to learn the Lightning Rush Technique.
"It is 1 of the Inner Disciple, called Lian Chen." Xu Tianyi answered.
"What?! How is that possible?!" Gong Xuanyan stood up immediately and got bewildered.
"Why? Do you know who he is?" Xu Tianyi answered, shocked to see Gong Xuanyan's reaction
"No. Never mind. It's nothing." Gong Xuanyan waved off the topic, dismissing it as insignificant. However, a slight furrow appeared on his brow, suggesting that there might be more to his response that meets the eye.
"Oh, yes. It's almost time for the inter-sect duel between the Buddha Benevolent Sect and the Cloudburst Immortal Sect," Gong Xuanyan remarked, his expression troubled.
"Well... Let's hope we win this year," Xu Tianyi responded, his tone carrying a hint of doubt.
"Win?! Let's hope that our inner disciples will not be injured so heavily. We can already thank the gods. HAHAHA" Gong Xuanyan laughed out loudly.
"Anyways, help me keep an eye on this Lian Chen, senior brother Xu. Sorry for the trouble too." Gong Xuanyan apologized for the trouble that he had handled to Xu Tianyi.
"Even without your word, I will still keep an eye on him. I have my own reasons for wanting him to be with my disciple. HAHAHAHA," Xu Tianyi laughed boisterously and took his leave, bidding farewell to Gong Xuanyan.
After Xu Tianyi departed, Gong Xuanyan gazed up at the ever-changing skies and murmured, "The heavens are shifting. A prodigy is emerging."
