The corners of Li Wen's mouth curved into an intriguing smile: "Hehe, Master Liu, what you're talking about is the Feiyun Sect from a day ago!" "Daoist Li, what do you mean by that?"
"Our Feiyun Sect has stood tall in the Northern Yan Dynasty for ten thousand years, with profound foundations. Although today's Feiyun Sect is indeed not as formidable as it was in its prime, for just a single longevity cultivator, I think there's no need for us to be so overly cautious."
Li Wen poured himself another cup of tea and drank it: "I already said, that was the Feiyun Sect of yesterday. A small Longevity Realm indeed cannot shake the millennia-old foundation of the Feiyun Sect."
Liu Qiankun frowned, "Today is the same!"
"If Fellow Daoist Li has nothing else to say, then I, Liu, will take my leave. The green mountains remain, and the rivers flow on; we shall meet again someday."
Saying this, he grabbed Jun Yao's arm and prepared to leave.
Each has their own troubles. Now, the three Grand Elders of the Longevity Realm from Feiyun Sect are trapped in the Wind Cave, their fate unknown. The remaining two must guard the entrance to the Wind Cave, unable to leave even for a moment.
Nowadays, the Feiyun Sect is at its weakest in ten thousand years.
If at this moment, Shangguan Zhaixing stepped into the realm of immortality, he would uncover the true nature of the Feiyun Sect.
Those cult factions that have a longstanding grudge against the Feiyun Sect will undoubtedly seize the opportunity. By then, I fear the millennia-old foundation of the Feiyun Sect will vanish in an instant.
The millennia-old legacy left by the ancestors must not be destroyed in the hands of Liu Qiankun.
In any case, he had to find a few more righteous allies before being discovered by those cults, perhaps he could still preserve some of his foundation.
"Master Liu, I need to remind you of something."
"In reality, only when the strengths are comparable can one find allies. If the disparity in strength is too great, are the allies you find truly allies?"
"Moreover, once the news about Feiyun Sect gets out, it will undoubtedly become the target of public criticism."
"And who would be willing to wade into these murky waters?"
"The only one who can help you is yourself."
Liu Qiankun's advancing steps finally came to a halt. He suddenly turned his head, looking incredulously at Li Wen behind him.
The incident at Feiyun Gate only happened yesterday, how could the master of the Tianji Pavilion know about it?
Could it be that Jun Yao told him?
Impossible!
Liu Qiankun shook his head, dismissing his own thoughts. Jun Yao had gone down the mountain to train half a month ago; she had no idea about the incident at Fengxue.
Moreover, the fact that the three Supreme Elders were trapped in the Wind Cave was a top secret of the sect. Even the ordinary elders of the sect had no right to know, let alone her, who was merely a disciple.
"Daoist Li, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Li Wen touched the corner of his mouth and thought, it seems I'm just one step away: "It looks like I haven't made my point clear enough!"
"Could it be that the three Supreme Elders being trapped in the Wind Cave still cannot shake the foundation of the Feiyun Sect?"
Liu Qiankun looked at Li Wen in disbelief: "You... how did you know?"
Jun Yao also opened her mouth wide: "Master... the three elders are trapped in the Wind Cave?"
With the combat power of the three great elders of the Longevity Realm gone, the strength of the Feiyun Sect is now unprecedentedly weak. If enemies were to attack at this moment... I'm afraid the Feiyun Sect would be annihilated immediately.
This principle, even though she was just a small disciple, she could understand clearly.
There was no need to answer Jun Yao's question; Liu Qiankun's repeatedly pale face had already given her the answer.
"Master Liu, you are an experienced person. You should know that when you seek allies now, are those allies truly helping you, or are they kicking you when you're down?"
The three Supreme Elders were trapped in the Wind Cave; this news was now the greatest secret of the Feiyun Sect.
Once this news gets out, the consequences will be unimaginable. Yet, the person in front of me has just revealed this earth-shattering secret with a single sentence.
Liu Qiankun's first thought was to kill and silence the witness.
However, just as he mobilized his spiritual power, he was astonished to discover that his own spiritual power was being isolated outside his body by a mysterious force.
"What is this?!"
"Seizing the creation of heaven and earth?"
Liu Qiankun was greatly shocked. He had once heard the Supreme Elder speak of the heaven-defying methods of a Saint-level expert. Once one enters sainthood, they can transcend the mundane, and with a mere gesture, they can seize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for their own use.
Now that his spiritual power has suddenly vanished, could it be that this young man... is actually a saint-level being?
White hair and youthful face, an aura of immortality and the bearing of a sage!
Could it be that Yao'er was telling the truth?!
"Fellow Daoist Li... no, Senior, what exactly do you want?"
