Chapter 186: Chapter 139: Leaving the Pass_2

On this day, at the summit of Central Peak within the sect, a terrifying pressure erupted from a cave abode.

Every cultivator of the nine peaks perceived this pressure. Fortunately, it flashed by and did not affect the sect cultivators.

Yu Sect Leader and several other ruling cultivators in the sect flew together towards the summit of Central Peak.

The cave abode at the summit of Central Peak is the best in the entire sect. It is where Spiritual Energy from the main spiritual vein of the sect emerges and is also the central location of the Sect Formation, receiving the most comprehensive protection.

As the Formation of the cave abode activated, a handsome man in his thirties, with a long beard under his jaw, slowly walked out.

“Greetings to the Second Elder!” Yu Sect Leader and the cultivators bowed in unison.

Simultaneously, two figures appeared next to the handsome man.

“Congratulations to Brother Yin for advancing to the Golden Core Middle Stage!” It was Elder Quan and Elder Sheng from the sect who, sensing the aura of Elder Yin, congratulated him together.

Do not underestimate this step. From the Golden Core Early Stage to the Middle Stage, the vast majority of Golden Core cultivators in the great sects are stuck at the early stage, unable to advance further.

From then on, the power of the sect increased significantly, and so did its influence.

“Junior Brother Quan, Junior Sister Sheng, it was purely a stroke of luck!” Elder Yin smiled and returned the gesture.

Yu Sect Leader and other high-ranking members of the sect were overjoyed. With Elder Yin’s advancement to the Golden Core Middle Stage, the strength of the sect had grown stronger, giving these actual administrators more confidence in dealing with external sect affairs.

“Congratulations to the Second Elder on his promotion to the Golden Core Middle Stage!” They bowed and congratulated in unison.

Elder Yin waved his hand, and an invisible force lifted them up.

“Father!” A graceful figure stepped out from the side. Yin Shilan, seeing her father whom she had not seen in nearly three years, called out softly.

“Lan’er has grown up and become a big girl now!” A fatherly warmth spread across Elder Yin’s handsome face as he smiled at Yin Shilan.

“Lan’er has missed you so much!” As Yin Shilan spoke, tears of grievance welled up in her eyes for some reason.

Elder Yin, being highly perceptive, sensed his daughter Yin Shilan’s grievance. Although his face still wore a smile, his eyes swept towards Yu Sect Leader at his side.

That look clearly demanded an explanation from Yu Sect Leader.

“Second Elder, a while back, the newly promoted Intermediate Array Master Li Shiming was assassinated at Gen Peak. Perhaps the junior sister felt that my handling of it was unfair, and that caused her some distress!” Yu Sect Leader hesitated for a moment before bowing and speaking.

Elder Yin himself was somewhat baffled, was his wife that fierce?

Although his wife was powerful and had many methods, she was still not very confident against a Golden Core cultivator of Elder Baili’s strength.

But Elder Baili wouldn’t likely lie about losing a magical artifact, which was a severe blow to any Golden Core cultivator.

As for the direct disciple, compared to this, it hardly counted as anything at all.

If Li Shiming was here, he would understand why trapping a Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the Holy Ice Sect had instead drawn Elder Baili, a Golden Core cultivator, resulting in Elder Baili’s hasty retreat.

Even though a magical artifact was destroyed, Elder Baili still had the strength to fight at that time.

But Elder Baili had judged the situation as a trap set by Evil Elder Ren for him, and after the destruction of the artifact and the backlash to his body, he immediately decided to flee.

No one could blame Elder Baili, besides a Golden Core cultivator, who else could cause such a massive disturbance.

Most crucially, this kind of method was very much in line with Evil Elder Ren’s habits; it was a strange, sudden, and effective attack.

At that time, if Elder Baili had stayed, Evil Elder Ren could have engaged him, potentially leading to his death on the spot.

Thus, he used Blood Escape, a technique severely taxing on his body, and fled thousands of miles back to the sect, causing his injuries to worsen from simple backlash to severe wounds.

As Elder Baili had said, having suffered so much loss, what was so wrong about seeking a bit of revenge?

“Son-in-law?” Elder Yin snapped out of the matter of the attack on Elder Baili; he thought about another issue that Elder Baili had mentioned and involuntarily turned his head towards Yin Shilan.

Yin Shilan naturally heard the term ‘son-in-law,’ and her face flushed red with embarrassment as she lowered her head even further.

A pang of pain hit Elder Yin’s heart; his most well-behaved daughter already had someone in her heart.

However, remembering that he was still communicating with Elder Baili, he suppressed his feelings.

“By the way, I contacted you to inform you that I have advanced to the Golden Core Middle Stage, and I’ll find time to discuss the matter of your revenge with you!” Elder Yin told Elder Baili in a deep voice.

The water screen did not pause for even a moment before it was disconnected.

Elder Yin still caught a glimpse of Elder Baili’s displeased face as the water screen disappeared.
