"Heavenly Secret Pavilion…" Bei Chenheng muttered these three words with a mysterious tone.
"Is it a newly established power?" he inquired.
"No…" The general shook his head, saying, "Our people observed Heavenly Secret Pavilion for a while, but we didn't notice anything unusual. Internally, there's only a young man and a woman living there. That woman is none other than Ren Qingtu's third disciple!"
"Oh?" Bei Chenheng's heart skipped a beat, feeling that something was not right, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
"Yang Qiu and Ren Qingtu didn't engage in combat…"
Bei Chenheng murmured to himself. If they hadn't fought, how did this opportunity arise? Did it appear out of thin air?
Did Ren Qingtu just happen to pass by and then he happened to bump into a secret realm, and then happened to become a Saint? This was too much of a coincidence. The probability of such thing happening, throughout the history, may not even be one in a million years.
The key point was… when there's too many coincidence, it won't be a coincidence.
"No, something's not right." Bei Chenheng's face changed and he quickly asked, "Why would Ren Qingtu's third disciple stay in Heavenly Secret Pavilion? Now that Ren Qingtu has become a Saint, shouldn't he have brought his disciple back?"
"No." The commander shook his head again, saying, "On this matter, we are also puzzled. After Ren Qingtu became a Saint, he immediately returned to the sect and has not come out since then. It seems he is stabilizing his cultivation. After all, just breaking through, one's strength is unstable, and encountering unexpected situations might lead to a fall in cultivation."
"That's strange." Bei Chenheng stood up, a thoughtful expression in his eyes. He said, "Is Ren Qingtu's third disciple not valued? If not, why would he travel such a long distance from the Great Luo Sword Sect to here? If she is valued, why didn't Ren Qingtu bring his disciple back after becoming a Saint?"
This point couldn't be explained. After all, Yang Qiu was still alive. Given the ruthless nature of those in the demonic path, they would definitely seek revenge for their disciple. If someone killed one of theirs, they would retaliate in kind.
But knowing that Yang Qiu was unharmed, Ren Qingtu still paid no attention to his disciple. There was only one explanation—he believed his disciple was not in danger. Even someone as powerful as Yang Qiu couldn't harm his disciple.
"Interesting." Bei Chenheng smiled. He seemed to have grasped a key point.
This key point was in Heavenly Secret Pavilion!
Ren Qingtu's opportunity was definitely not something that came out of thin air. Perhaps he intentionally went to the Bai Duan Mountain Range, and Yang Qiu might have known the detailed information. Otherwise, there was no way to explain how the Nine Nether Demon Sect reacted so quickly.
Even though the Nine Nether Demon Sect had extraordinary abilities, their sect's Saints couldn't be faster than the Scarlet Flame Holy Land. Yet, in the current situation, the people of the Nine Nether Demon Sect were a step ahead, and they even sent out two Saints, just like the Great Luo Sword Sect!
"How far is this place from the Bai Duan Mountain Range?" Bei Chenheng asked.
"Your Highness, it's about five million miles away," the commander replied.
"How is the situation in the Bai Duan Mountain Range?" Bei Chenheng asked again.
"Before I returned, the Great Luo Sword Sect and the Nine Nether Demon Sect had already clashed, and the Scarlet Flame Holy Land also joined the battle. Five Saints fought, destroying an area of over a hundred thousand miles. The two Saints from the Great Luo Sword Sect gained the upper hand with a two-to-three advantage."
"Oh?" Bei Chenheng raised an eyebrow. Although this news was unexpected, it made sense.
The Great Luo Sword Sect was a sect of sword cultivators, and their internal disciples were all sword cultivators. Among the same level, they were known for their attack power and speed. Having two Sword Saints overpowering three others was reasonable. The only thing that surprised him was the alliance between the Scarlet Flame Holy Land and the Nine Nether Demon Sect!
Are they forsaking their dignity for an opportunity? On the side… he also see that this opportunity was extraordinary. Its internal value has made three sects of Holy Land-level forces, regardless of face, vie for it eagerly.
"One opportunity has led to the involvement of three Holy Land forces. Is Heavenly Secret Pavilion behind the scenes orchestrating this?" Bei Chenheng thought.
This opportunity, whether in terms of timing or circumstances, was quite strange. The normally calm Bai Duan Mountain Range suddenly had an opportunity to become a Saint. Many people hadn't reacted yet.
In the past, opportunities with spectacular signs were much more noticeable. Compared to those, this one had too little commotion, and its manifestation was too fast, as if it had suddenly appeared. Countless sects hadn't reacted yet, and the decision on ownership was already at hand.
"Your Highness, shall we still go to the Bai Duan Mountain Range?" asked the commander.
"We're not going." Bei Chenheng waved his hand.
At the moment, the five Saints in the Bai Duan Mountain were clashing. However, the strongest he had here was only at the Holy Lord level. So, what's the point of going? To seek death?
Although the Bai Duan Mountain belonged to the Great Yin Dynasty, the dynasty couldn't control it. They could only watch as others fight to the death at their doorstep.
"Then, let's go to the Great Wilderness City!" Bei Chengheng said lightly.
