The news spread like wildfire across the Azure Origin Dao Sect, stirring a frenzy of envy and jealousy among the disciples.
They whispered and gossiped, eyes flickering with admiration and resentment alike.
Everyone knew Elias had recently received guidance from Master Ethan, a rare and precious opportunity that could chart the course of his cultivation destiny.
After Ethan left the Serene Mirror Lake, his path led him to the peak, where he sought out the Peak Master of the place.
With a bow and a nod, he greeted the peak master and gently requested that he look after Elias carefully.
The Peak Master readily agreed, his face softening at Ethan's plea—understanding the responsibility of shaping young talents.
Returning to his residence, Ethan noticed a familiar figure standing quietly before his courtyard door.
It was Junior Sister Liana.
