The Immortal Cloud Sect was a powerful sect in the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range. It had tens of thousands of disciples, and the sect was guarded by Nascent Soul Stage cultivators. In addition, the Immortal Cloud Sect was a sword cultivation sect, and was famous for its powerful combat prowess. Hence, the Immortal Cloud Sect was one of the top powers in the Cloud Dragon Mountain.
At this moment, the people in the main hall of the Immortal Cloud Sect had all gathered. The three Nascent Soul stage cultivators were all gathered in a grand hall.
Not long ago, everyone had received a piece of exciting news. The originally inconspicuous Jade Net Peak had unexpectedly produced a Nascent Soul Stage powerhouse, increasing the Immortal Cloud Sect's power to another level.
At that moment, the Nascent Soul stage cultivator from the mountain had already arrived at the main hall of the Immortal Cloud Sect.
”Thank you junior apprentice sister, for you to be able to break through to the Nascent Soul stage is a great fortune for our Immortal Cloud Sect.” At the head of the Immortal Cloud Sect, an old man with white hair and beard spoke solemnly.
The expression on Xie Ji's face was a little stiff. As a fellow Nascent Soul Stage powerhouse, she really did not like the old man's haughty expression.
However, Xie Ji also understood that this old man truly had the ability to be arrogant. His name was Gu Feng, and as a late Nascent Soul stage cultivator, he was already the battle force of the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range. He was a person standing at the peak of the mountain.
Gu Feng nodded with a smile: ”I don't know why Junior Sister came to find a place that requires the help of the sect. Just say it.” As long as the sect has something, it will definitely satisfy Junior Sister Xie. ”
If it wasn't for what happened at the summit, Xie Ji would have thought that Gu Feng was an enthusiastic Sect Leader. But now, the more she saw this old man, the more hypocritical she became.
Wu Cheng definitely wouldn't dare to make the previous decision without permission. The one who would make the final decision would definitely be this old man. Someone who could give up on his own faction and have dozens of names was definitely not a good person.
Xie Ji knew that now was not the time for such a ruckus. She could only endure it patiently and obtain the Immortal Cloud Sect's spirit vein as compensation.
At that moment, Xie Ji announced her intentions to everyone.
Gu Feng did not reply immediately. Instead, he looked at Wu Cheng.
When Wu Cheng saw Gu Feng's doubt, he immediately left the crowd. He first respectfully greeted Gu Feng and then loudly explained to him.
… ….
”That was the case back then. In order to make Junior Sister Xie less resentful, I did indeed agree to her request. After the matter is settled, the sect will compensate a spirit vein to continue the Jade Net Peak's legacy.” Wu Cheng had a ”I am a good person” look on his face.
Gu Feng nodded and praised, ”Brother Wu Cheng, you did well. My Immortal Cloud Sect can't treat the powerhouses below unfairly. ”How about this, you go to the Treasure Vault and get Junior Sister Xie a spirit vein of better quality. This can be considered a bit of compensation for the Immortal Cloud Sect.”
”Thank you, Sect Leader Senior Brother!” Hearing this, Xie Ji was overjoyed. It seems like this trip was not in vain. This Sect Leader of the Immortal Cloud Sect is indeed sensible.
Immediately, Xie Ji bid Gu Feng farewell and followed Wu Cheng to the Treasure Vault.
Every sect had a place to collect treasures. This was often one of the most heavily guarded places in the sect. The Celestial Cloud Sect's pavilion was a twenty-story pagoda. It was like a giant bamboo shoot in the sky and was quite spectacular.
From time to time, a large number of disciples would patrol the area around the treasure pavilion. With Xie Ji's current Nascent Soul level perception, she could sense that there were many experts lying in ambush around the treasure pavilion. Most of these experts were at the Aurous Core stage, and there was no lack of guards at the peak of the Aurous Core stage. These people could easily enter the Nascent Soul stage.
