Chapter 225: Chapter 216: Arrival

...

High above the distant horizon, several enormous shadows dashed across the sky, stirring the air into a wild frenzy. The commotion they created sent chills down the spines of onlookers.

The speed of the flying alien beasts was incredibly fast; in just half a day, Mo Wangchen and his companions had swept past an imperial dynasty, causing quite a stir and alarming a number of experts within.

Casting their gaze toward the creatures, they grew terrified upon sensing the dozens of fearsome auras emanating from their backs.

It was a formidable team; each person’s cultivation was at the Returning Ruins Realm or above, with some even exuding the aura of Primordial Spirit Realm Experts, instilling fear in those who saw them.

"What exactly is happening?"

"Such a terrifying team; only one of the three grand heads could possess such a deep foundation, right?"

"Who knows what they’re up to, but to stir so many experts into action, it seems that the Ten Directions Domain is about to experience a seismic event..."

Throughout their path, a chorus of astonished voices rose. However, Mo Wangchen and the others paid no heed as they sped on their way. Based on their current velocity, it would take about ten days to reach Yun Country.

During these ten days, nearly everyone was meditating with their eyes closed, nurturing their breath. A few approached Mo Wangchen to make conversation, hoping to cultivate a closer relationship.

After all, with the status of a sixth-grade Pill Master added to that of the Pill Sect Saint, it wasn’t hard to imagine that Mo Wangchen would one day become a towering figure in the Ten Directions Domain!

Throughout these ten days, Mo Wangchen spent most of his time in cultivation. With the Luminous Pearl left by his mother and an endless supply of Qi Gathering Pills to assist him, his cultivation had improved significantly over these ten days. He had now reached the peak of the ninth layer of the Spirit Transformation Realm, barely a step away from the Returning Ruins Realm!

...

For cultivators, ten days passed like the blink of an eye.

As the flying alien beasts neared the border of Yun Country, Mo Wangchen and the others slowed their pace.

When they approached Yunge City, they settled in a mountain range outside the city. Mo Wangchen instructed everyone to conceal their cultivation; he didn’t want to cause a commotion and opted to enter the city in smaller groups.

"The city is quite bustling, and there are even a few powerful presences lurking..."

After everyone made their way into the city and gathered together, they heard the Great Elder Feng Yise speak with a slight frown.

Mo Wangchen pondered for a moment, then said with a frown, "Yun Country has an Alchemist Alliance, and I have a good relationship with their Alliance Hierarch. Let’s go there first and see what’s happening."

Having been away from Yun Country for about two months, Mo Wangchen could tell that there was something different about the city now.

Primordial Spirit Realm Experts, who were a rare sight in the past, were now noticeable on the streets.

Leading the way, Mo Wangchen and his companions began to make their way toward the Alchemy Pavilion.

...

At this moment, in a room on the fifth floor of the Alchemist Alliance.

Elder Ling and Wan Quan sat there, both frowning.

"What do you plan on doing given the current situation?" asked Wan Quan, looking at Elder Ling.

Elder Ling was silent. He took a sip from the teacup in front of him before heaving a sigh and spoke with some helplessness, "At this juncture, we have no choice but to relocate the Mo Family out of Yun Country."

"Throughout the past couple of months, our Alchemist Alliance has been in a silent standoff with the Royal Family. They naturally wouldn’t dare to lay a hand on the Mo Family, but now, with the Crown Prince’s imminent marriage to Jun Muqing, for some reason, the Yun Country Royal Family has drawn closer to the neighboring countries. With the joint pressures from several dynasties, the weight is too much for our Alchemist Alliance to bear..."

"We were prepared for the Mo Family’s relocation half a month ago, but... if I am not mistaken, following the Crown Prince’s marriage, the Yun Country Royal Family is highly likely to proceed with executions."

Elder Ling’s frown deepened as he continued, "If that happens, once Mo Wangchen returns, he will surely go mad. Now that he is a disciple of the Pill Sect, the Royal Family naturally wouldn’t dare treat him rashly. However, Yun Country is, after all, an imperial dynasty with a thousand years of history, and it has the standing of the Hundred Nations, Thousand Sects Alliance. Unless he gains significant attention from the Pill Sect, it would be difficult for Mo Wangchen to overthrow Yun Country."

"I’ve attempted several times to send messengers to the Pill Sect with news for him, but the Royal Family has been watching too closely. Our Alliance members were intercepted as soon as they left Yun Country’s territory. This time, we truly have no other options."

Wan Quan also sighed with a helpless look on his face, "If only he could return at this moment..."

Before he could finish speaking, Elder Ling shook his head with a wry smile, "Even if he returns, it won’t help; the charges the Royal Family has placed on the Mo Family are those of treason—a matter of internal politics in Yun Country, which outsiders cannot interfere in. Unless he reaches that level where he could ignore the rules. I can’t deny his talent, but it’s only been two months..."

"Yun Country plans to execute my father and the others?!"

Elder Ling’s words hadn’t ceased when suddenly, a voice came from outside the room.

The two men in the room startled and turned with wide eyes. Upon seeing the familiar figure entering the room, they immediately stood up, their faces filled with surprise.

"Kid, you’ve really returned?!"

Elder Ling’s eyes brimmed with disbelief as he sized up Mo Wangchen from head to toe. Despite many changes in his aura, Elder Ling recognized him at first glance.

Mo Wangchen nodded but didn’t elaborate. He sat down in front of the two men and asked with a frown, "I overheard your discussion just now from outside the door. Could it be that after Jun Muqing’s marriage to the Crown Prince, the Royal Family plans to execute my father and the others?"

The two men exchanged glances, then spoke, "Tomorrow is the Crown Prince’s wedding. Many powerful figures from the surrounding nations have been invited, and even more seem inclined towards forming an allegiance with Yun Country. If I’m not mistaken, Yun Ming that old man’s breakthrough to the Primordial Spirit Realm is being touted by Yun Country, which now boasts unrivaled strength among the neighboring nations."

"Tomorrow, huh."

Mo Wangchen narrowed his eyes. "It seems I’ve returned at just the right time..."

"Do you plan to go to the wedding banquet tomorrow?" the two men asked in shock. At this point, Yun Country regarded Mo Wangchen as a grave threat. Had it not been for his status as a Pill Sect disciple, he likely would have perished at the hands of the Royal Family by now.

"Hehe, the main reason for my return is to rescue my father and the others from the clutches of the Royal Family. Since the Crown Prince’s wedding is happening, how can I not offer a fitting gift?" Mo Wangchen said with a cold laugh.

"This..."

The two men were taken aback and eyed each other before inquiring, "Are you confident?"

Mo Wangchen smiled, glanced at them, and, under their puzzled gaze, clapped his hands.

Whoosh!

The next moment, a dark figure flashed and appeared behind Mo Wangchen—it was Feng Yise, the Great Elder of Pill Sect.

"A Primordial Spirit Realm Expert!" Feeling the aura emanating from Feng Yise, the two men were taken aback and stood from their seats.

"This is Pill Sect’s Great Elder. Besides him, I’ve brought back many other masters. Nearly all are renowned figures in the Ten Directions Domain. With them here, even if Yun Country has the stance of the Hundred Nations Thousand Sects Alliance, they will probably have to release them, right?" Mo Wangchen said with a faint smile.

"Pill Sect’s Great Elder!" The eyes of the two men flashed sharply, their hearts filled with boundless astonishment.

Pill Sect was one of the three giants of the Ten Directions Domain. Having its Great Elder, a figure almost mythical within the whole domain, was unexpected. They hadn’t thought Mo Wangchen could convince such a person to return with him.

And what did he just say?

Besides Feng Yise, there were others?

Figures renowned in the Ten Directions Domain?

"Are you the Alliance Hierarch of the Alchemist Alliance?"

While the two men were still in awe, Feng Yise courteously turned to Elder Ling and greeted him with a fist and palm salute, "Even though far away in Yun Country, I’ve often heard of Daoist Fellow Ling’s deeds. It’s truly rare for this small Yun Country to have a sixth-rank Pill Master like you."

Hearing the Great Elder’s words, Elder Ling felt somewhat flattered and surprised. Although he too was a sixth-rank Pill Master, his cultivation was much inferior to that of Feng Yise, and considering the latter’s status as the Great Elder of Pill Sect, the difference between their statuses was like heaven and earth.

"On the way here, I also heard the Saint speak about his time in Yun Country, and how much he owed to Daoist Fellow Ling for his care."

"Saint... Saint Heir?!"

Upon hearing this, the two men were utterly astounded, and at this point, they finally understood.

No wonder Mo Wangchen was able to invite a person of the Great Elder’s caliber. Mo Wangchen himself was actually the Saint Heir of Pill Sect?

Did this mean Mo Wangchen could potentially become the next Sect Master of Pill Sect?!
