The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

“A warm welcome to you, please take a seat at your table.”

Ye Feng exchanged pleasantries, then quietly hovered in the sky, looking down at the surroundings, waiting for other guests to arrive.

The third group to make an appearance was the Old City Lord of Whitefloat City, the Deputy City Lord, and the leaders from the three elite sects in a batch.

Following them, Zhou Jiacai, Zhou Jiaqian, Long Zhenchuan, Jia Li’an, Huo Daxiong, and others also arrived one after another, taking their seats in the Sect Main Plaza.

“Sect Master Ye, I’m not late, am I?”

Yunhua Zhenren, along with Liu Yuzhi, Lin Yuyan, and other elders and disciples of Yunhua Sect, flew over and projected a resonant voice from miles away.

“You are quite early, please have a seat.”

Ye Feng smiled.

Yunhua Sect was an ally of Misty Sect, and their early arrival came as no surprise.

As time went by, the City Lords and Sect Masters from Sanyuan City, Liuyun Sect, Longwu City, Hundred Artifacts Sect, Spirit Beast Sect, Beacon Fire City, Five-Colors City, and others also arrived with their subordinates, and were led to the Sect Main Plaza by Shi Lei.

“Misty Sect has really changed a lot!”

The City Lord of Sanyuan City remarked.

Looking at Feilai Peak and the miniature Spiritual Energy Vortex hanging high in the sky, his eyes were full of envy.

“Haha, it should be called Misty Sect now!” Yunhua Zhenren reminded kindly, prompting the City Lord of Sanyuan City to laugh and agree repeatedly.

“Sect Master Ye, congratulations, congratulations!”

Elder Hongmeng arrived with stewards Qin Ping and Qin Wan to offer their congratulations.

At that moment, the Sect Leader of Liuyun Sect looked around and said, “It seems that Nanwu City and Qingyun Sect will not be attending.”

The Sect Master of Spirit Beast Sect whispered, “Nanwu City and Qingyun Sect have long been thick as thieves, it would be strange if they did come!”

“It’s said that Nanwu City’s City Lord excavated the Miniature Spirit Vein Gemstone Jade Tree from the city and gifted it to Qingyun Zhenren,” added Yunhua Zhenren.

“Is that really true?” The City Lord of Sanyuan City was greatly surprised.

“Absolutely true!”

A few Sect Masters started chattering avidly, not minding the strange glances from the surrounding disciples of their respective sects.

“So, the dignified Sect Masters actually like to gossip too!”

The disciples of various sects were left dumbfounded.

At the seating area.

Jiang Xinyu pointed at Ye Feng in the sky and said to the dignified middle-aged man beside him, “Father, that’s Sect Master Ye, the one I told you about.”

“It’s said that Sect Master Ye is a Spirit Sea Realm expert, I did not expect you, my boy, to know him. It looks like you’re already qualified to take over the Treasure Pavilion and even Longwu City,” Jiang Xinyu’s father, Jiang Feihua, said with relief.

Near the leader of Hundred Artifacts Sect.

Jiang Xinyu’s cousin, Zheng Yaoshou, was seated.

The portly Zheng Yaoshou sat comfortably in a specially made larger seat provided by Shi Lei, looking around to notice that Misty Sect had really changed a lot, not only had Feilai Peak appeared out of nowhere, there were also Spiritual Springs and Waterfalls around, with the concentration of spiritual energy completely surpassing that of Hundred Artifacts Sect.

“I wonder if Sect Master Ye would be willing to accept me.”

Zheng Yaoshou muttered half-jokingly.

The leader of Hundred Artifacts Sect glared at him and said, “You, my boy, are a genius disciple of our sect. Even if Sect Master Ye would accept you, I would not like to let you go.”

“Haha!”

The Sect Masters laughed heartily.

“I’m just joking,” Zheng Yaoshou scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

Leaders of various sects continued to arrive.

In addition to the Star-Level Forces such as Hundred Artifacts Sect and Liuyun Sect, leaders of many high and middle-ranked sects had also reached the venue.

Three thousand seats had been prepared in the Sect Main Plaza.

Now, two thousand were already filled.

“I wonder if there will be someone from a Two-Star Rank power.”

“Probably not, right?”

“I heard the Alliance Leader Mo Tianlong from the Myriad Islands intends to betroth his daughter Mo Minxi to Sect Master Ye, so it’s very possible that the Alliance Leader will attend.”

“Hiss! You mean, this peak expert of the Spirit Sea Realm might come?”

“I’m just speculating.”

The cultivators in attendance discussed this matter among themselves.

In the skies above.

Ye Feng looked up at the sun hanging high in the sky, knowing that the auspicious time was almost upon them, and that the people from County King City should be arriving soon.

“Sect Master Ye, congratulations!”

A young man clad in battle armor, accompanied by dozens of armored soldiers aboard a Spirit Boat, arrived emanating the aura of the third level of the Element Gathering Realm.

Ye Feng turned toward the voice and noticed the newcomer was about thirty years old, yet already possessed such cultivation level; he was definitely a genius.

“Who are you?” Ye Feng asked.

“I am Meng Haomiao, the Commander of the Commandery Princess’s guards from the County King’s Manor of County King City. I come by the Princess’s decree to extend congratulations to Misty Sect and to present a token of our goodwill.”

Meng Haomiao said with a bow, his voice booming.

Behind him, a maid appeared, holding a tray covered with a red cloth.

“Welcome.”

Ye Feng nodded, instructing Shi Lei to escort them to their seats.

The arrival of Meng Haomiao and his troop caught the attention of the leaders from various sects.

“Ah, people from the Commandery Princess’s Manor!”

“I hear the Princess is the only daughter of the Commandery Prince, very much favored, and is the sole candidate for the future Commandery Prince. It could be said that her current status is not less than that of personages like Mu Ruxue, the ‘Sword Child’ of the Divine Wind Sword Sect, or even surpasses them.”

“It’s a pity she didn’t come herself.”

The crowd commented.

Hum!

Several sword lights sliced through the sky, arriving at Misty Peak.

“Sect Master Ye, I am Ji Wushuang, dispatched by the ‘Sword Child’ to offer congratulations. I hope that Misty Sect will flourish even more and soon advance to a Two-Star Sect.”

Ji Wushuang arrived to offer his greetings.

Next to him stood Luo Hedong, an Inner Sect Disciple of the Sword King Sect whom Huo Yunjie and Shi Lei had met before.

“Even the Divine Wind Sword Sect has sent someone?”

“Tsk tsk, Sect Master Ye really does have extensive connections.”

The various sect leaders were quite envious.

At this moment, another Spirit Boat was approaching from the east.

At the bow of the ship,

Mo Minxi stood with her hands clasped behind her back, her robes fluttering.

Behind her stood the stately Blue Dragon King and several beautiful maids, all holding trays, obviously bringing generous gifts.

“The Myriad Islands Alliance has come to offer congratulations.”

The Blue Dragon King released a hint of Spirit Sea Realm aura, easily overwhelming the entire assembly and making Mo Minxi behind him seem like a Heavenly Immortal descending to the mortal realm.

“I thought Alliance Leader Mo Tianlong would come in person!”

“How could Alliance Leader Mo, who stands shoulder to shoulder with the Commandery Prince as a top Spirit Sea Realm powerhouse, travel so casually?”

As Mo Minxi and her party took their seats, most of the expected guests had arrived, and the three thousand seats at the Sect Main Plaza were now ninety percent full.

And at this time, noon had arrived.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a great quantity of petals began to fall from the sky.

Everyone hurriedly looked up.

In the northern sky, an immense Flying Ship was slowly approaching, surrounded by dozens of Element Gathering Realm women floating in the air, their faces veiled, casting spells to shower down petals as white as snow.

At the bow of the ship,

Elder Mo Wen from the Sect Main Hall was standing with his hands clasped behind him, flanked by two elders holding up a plaque covered with a red cloth.

“The envoy from County King City has arrived!”

“Finally here, we just need to hang the plaque to complete the conferment ceremony, then we can start the feast. I wonder what delights Sect Master Ye has prepared for us.”

“No wonder you’re so chubby, always thinking about food!”

Everyone looked at Elder Mo Wen atop the Flying Ship, their spirits lifted.

“The conferment ceremony for Misty Sect’s elevation to Star-Level Sect will now…”

Elder Mo Wen, using his True Yuan to amplify his voice, began to shout from over ten miles away from Misty Peak.

Boom boom boom…

But just at that moment, from the direction of Fuyun Gloomy Forest, there came a tumultuous noise, like an earthquake, with a vast cloud of dust rising into the sky.

“What’s happened?”

Everyone was startled.

Even Ye Feng was drawn to the commotion, his brow furrowed slightly as he looked in the direction of the noise.
