Just as the few people were drinking and chatting, Jiang Cheng and Yun Yun's gazes simultaneously turned toward the area outside the Main Hall.
Yun Yun even stood up from her seat, looking surprised, and said, "It's Master's Aura... How did he wake up?"
Grand Elder Yun Ling even curled the corner of his mouth into an arc. Anyone who threatened the Old Sect Master's plan must be investigated.
Yun Shan stood with his hands behind his back. He did not summon his Dou Qi Wings, yet he stepped upon the Void Realm.
Every time his foot landed, circles of ripples would spread through the Void Realm. As the ripples dissipated, his figure had already appeared a hundred meters away, which was extremely mystical.
After several such strides, in just a moment, the figure flashed into the center of the Plaza.
A gentle breeze swept by, making his Long Robe flutter, giving him an air of transcendence and elegance.
"Yun'er, come out and explain yourself."
Although Yun Shan's voice wasn't loud, every word was exceptionally sharp, making everyone in the Main Hall feel deafened and their Dou Qi surge.
Yun Yun quickly rushed out of the Main Hall and respectfully performed a Cupped-hand Salute, not daring to delay: "Master, why have you woken up?"
"This Master has already advanced to Dou Zong, so there's no need to keep hiding." Yun Shan's expression was calm. He glanced at Jiang Cheng, who was still drinking in the Main Hall. His expression was similar to Yun Ling's, feeling a trace of suspicion.
This person had no Dou Qi fluctuations on him, appearing like an ordinary person, making it impossible to discern his Cultivation.
Either this person has no Dou Qi and is just a Cripple, or his strength surpasses mine, placing him in the Dou Zun Realm.
Yun Shan landed on the ground, hesitating. Seeing Yun Yun's attire, he couldn't help but frown, saying in a low voice, "Yun'er, why did you come out dressed like this? This isn't like you."
Yun Yun gently bit her lower lip, knowing that her appearance was improper, and replied, "This Disciple will change back immediately."
After speaking, Yun Yun turned and left the area outside the Cloud Mist Sect's Main Hall without looking back, leaving behind the dumbfounded crowd.
But after quickly realizing what happened, they immediately Knelt and Bowed. They hadn't seen the Old Sect Master in several years, and they were quite shocked to discover that he had achieved a Breakthrough to Dou Zong.
Yun Shan maintained a calm expression. Most of the people present were High-ranking Members of the Cloud Mist Sect; few Disciples sat side-by-side with the Elders.
Yun Shan didn't pay attention to the others, walking directly up to Jiang Cheng and scrutinizing the unfamiliar Expert.
"Your Excellency is a person from the Central Continent?"
Jiang Cheng slowly put down the Wine Cup in his hand and said lightly, "That doesn't seem to concern you, does it? Moreover, for the Cloud Mist Sect's Old Sect Master, who has been in Seclusion for many years, to suddenly emerge and question me, isn't that making a mountain out of a molehill?"
Yun Shan smiled, "Because Your Excellency's identity is special, I was afraid Yun'er, being Young and Reckless, might offend you, which is why I personally came out of the mountain."
Jiang Cheng sneered. What an Old Fox, pushing everything onto Yun Yun to show his own attitude and resolve.
But since he wanted to put on a show, then let him put on a good one.
Yun Shan slightly moved his finger, "All of you go back and rest. Pretend that nothing happened tonight. Inform the Disciples that they did not see me. If anyone speaks of this, the Sect Rules will deal with them!"
"Yes!"
Yun Lei and the others sobered up and immediately drove everyone out of the area, simultaneously telling the Disciples to forget what happened today, warning that if they revealed even half a word, they would face the consequences!
After everyone had left, only the Cloud Mist Sect's Young Sect Leader Nalan Yanran, Grand Elder Yun Ling, and the Former Sect Master Yun Shan remained in the area.
Grand Elder Yun Ling stepped forward and said, "Old Sect Master, this person is extremely suspicious. He might very well be a Spy from another Empire!"
"Grand Elder, why are you speaking about Mister like that? How could Mister be a Spy!"
Although the two of them hadn't interacted for long, Nalan Yanran was certain that Mister was definitely not that kind of person.
"Yanran, it's not your place to dictate things here!" Grand Elder Yun Ling glared, eyes wide, and said, "Hurry back, or don't blame This Old Man for being impolite!"
"Grand Elder!"
Yun Shan raised his hand to stop the two, then said in a low voice, "Your Excellency is called Jiang Cheng, correct? I have traveled the continent for many years, yet I have never heard of Your Excellency's Name/Appellation. Could it be that Your Excellency's name is false?"
"Since Mister is unwilling to reveal his identity, then This Seat will not press the matter further."
Jiang Cheng laughed, "What is there to hide? I Don't Change My Name when I travel, nor my surname when I sit down. My surname is Jiang, and my given name is Cheng."
"Jiang Cheng..." Yun Shan tried to recall the Experts of the Central Continent, but he had never heard of the name Jiang Cheng.
Could it be that he is just an Unknown Junior?!
Yun Shan shrugged. Since this was the case, he could get straight to the point. As long as this person wasn't from those few Major Powers, he could relax.
"Since Mister's name is Jiang Cheng, may I ask why you have come to my Cloud Mist Sect?"
"Drinking wine and singing songs, why must there be a purpose?"
Jiang Cheng countered with a question.
"Although there is no purpose, the Cloud Mist Sect does not intend to have too much contact with outside Experts in the near future. The Banquet ends here today. This Seat will definitely visit you another day. What does Mister think?"
Hearing Yun Shan's words, Jiang Cheng slowly stood up, pausing as he passed by Yun Shan.
Turning his face, he smiled and said, "In that case, I shall not disturb you further. However, Sect Master Yun Shan, before I leave, I must advise you: Do Not Do What Should Not Be Done. Stop in time, and you can be safe."
Yun Shan frowned, not understanding the meaning of those words. But when he wanted to ask something further, Jiang Cheng had already vanished. Even he didn't know how the other party left.
Could he really be a Dou Zun Expert?!
Thinking of this, a trace of shock arose in Yun Shan's heart. If the other party truly was a Dou Zun Expert, why would he specifically appear near the Jia Ma Empire?
Does he have ulterior motives?
Grand Elder Yun Ling spat on the ground, "He just left like that! He really doesn't put the Old Sect Master in his eyes!"
*Pa*... a crisp sound.
Yun Ling's face instantly became red and swollen.
"Huh?" Yun Ling widened his eyes, covering his cheek, which bore a Palm Print. He looked at the Old Sect Master, confused. Why hit him out of nowhere?
"You Idiot! Didn't you see how he disappeared?!"
Yun Ling shook his head foolishly. If he could have seen it, he wouldn't be stuck at the Dou King Peak Realm.
"This person's strength is above mine; he must have already advanced to that Realm... No, I must go see Yun'er and clarify his identity. If he really is, then you have caused a Great Disaster!"
Yun Shan angrily flung his Embroidered Robe, looking Utterly Disappointed, and vanished from the spot, leaving behind the dumbfounded Grand Elder Yun Ling.
Grand Elder Yun Ling at this moment looked like the third Emoji in your phone, foolishly frozen in place, unaware of what had just happened.
Nalan Yanran covered her mouth and secretly chuckled. It truly fulfilled the saying: those who Bring Disaster Upon Themselves cannot live.
