Chapter 142

Especially the last word.

He bit down on it with particular emphasis.

It seemed to carry a deeper meaning.

Hearing this.

Meng Zhangqing’s eyes narrowed instantly.

It seemed his own sect and this Myriad Phenomena Pavilion were not on good terms, as if there was some enmity between them.

Otherwise, the Myriad Phenomena Pavilion, which claimed to be "neutral,"

should not have had this attitude.

After speaking.

Yuan Cang led the group from the Myriad Phenomena Pavilion and turned to leave directly.

"Profound Heaven Sect!"

Duanmu Yang shot a hateful glare at Xi Yingqing, then at Meng Zhangqing, and finally let out a long sigh before leaving.

Only the old City Lord of Wind Cloud City.

Cupped his hands toward Xi Yingqing.

Although the Nie family had some involvement in this martial assembly, the general trend was such that the Nie family had actually been helpless.

From a reasonable perspective.

It was understandable.

"Sect Master, fellow Peak Masters, I have not failed your expectations."

Meng Zhangqing withdrew his gaze and bowed slightly.

"Well done!"

Mo Shuokuang walked up, patted Meng Zhangqing on the shoulder, and laughed loudly.

"For you to comprehend sword intent at this age is truly beyond my expectations. I had thought it would take at least the Spirit Connection Realm; after all, the first Sect Master of our Profound Heaven Sect comprehended it at the Spirit Connection Realm."

"Now it seems you are even more outstanding than our ancestor."

Xi Yingqing said with a smile.

His words, however, shocked everyone.

Such praise was even greater than what had been said back in the Sect Master’s hall!

The first Sect Master was the founder of the Profound Heaven Sect!

It was said that he was an incredibly brilliant and talented existence.

The Sect Master actually said Meng Zhangqing was more outstanding than the sect’s ancestor.

If it were before, they certainly wouldn't have agreed, but now, they acknowledged it from the bottom of their hearts.

One might ask, throughout history, how many people could comprehend supreme sword intent at this age?

It could be counted on one's fingers, right?

"Sect Master, you flatter me."

Meng Zhangqing said modestly.

Admittedly.

Possessing sword intent at this age was indeed a very absurd thing.

"No need for modesty. If one is light, one should shine brilliantly. Your path ahead will always be like this."

Xi Yingqing said with a smile.

Then he took a step.

And arrived above the martial arts arena.

At this moment, only the people from the three major factions and the Myriad Phenomena Pavilion had left.

The other invited factions were still there.

"Next, this Sect will announce a piece of news."

Xi Yingqing stood with his hands behind his back.

Everyone immediately looked up, very curious about what Xi Yingqing was going to say.

After all, at this moment, what could be more important than the sect's promotion?

And the Myriad Phenomena Pavilion had already announced the sect's promotion.

"From now on, Meng Zhangqing will be the successor of this sect, the Young Sect Master of the Profound Heaven Sect!"

As the words fell.

It immediately caused countless gasps!

Young... Sect Master!

The successor to a dignified first-grade major sect!

What kind of power and status was this!

It was equivalent to being the future ruler of an entire province!

"Clan Elder, did we hear wrong? The Young Master has become the Young Sect Master of the Profound Heaven Sect?"

A member of the Meng clan couldn't help but say.

Their face was full of disbelief.

"What do you mean heard wrong!"

"That is the Young Master!"

The Clan Elder was trembling with excitement.

He swore that in his nearly hundred years of life, he had never had a day as thrilling as today!

The Young Sect Master of the Profound Heaven Sect!

Just how much ancestral blessing must one have to achieve this!

He seemed to have already seen the scene of the family becoming a major clan in Tianling Province!

"Calm down!"

The third grandfather of the Meng family coughed lightly.

Pretending to be calm.

But his hands under his sleeves were actually shaking.

――

On the high platform, it was the same.

Every heaven-gifted talent had eyes full of shock.

Because this news was simply too sudden, without any preparation!

And all along.

The successor they knew was...

Subconsciously, everyone looked at Han Luoyu.

Han Luoyu pursed his lips.

But he didn't have much expression.

One knows one's own affairs.

In fact, his master had never groomed him as a successor, but simply as a master and disciple.

If the person his master chose today was someone similar to him, he would certainly have fought for it.

But...

The potential and strength Meng Zhangqing displayed were not things he could compare to.

That was a qualitative gap.

Therefore, he was convinced and accepted it.

Thinking of this.

Han Luoyu cupped his hands toward Meng Zhangqing and bowed.

"Greetings, Young Sect Master."

Since even Han Luoyu had expressed his stance.

The others had no more objections and bowed one after another.

In an instant.

The sound of the three words echoed throughout the entire Profound Heaven Sect gate.

And Meng Zhangqing was a bit dazed.

Was this development a bit too fast?

He truly hadn't expected it.

"Actually, when you entered the inner sect, the sect had already arranged it this way."

Mo Shuokuang said with a smile.

"Entered the inner sect?"

Meng Zhangqing was stunned, then realized.

It should specifically refer to the fact that he possessed martial intent while in the Pulse Forging Realm.

"Then why..."

Meng Zhangqing wanted to ask, since there was an intention early on, why had they basically ignored him all this time?

If there had been resources poured in.

He definitely wouldn't be at the second level of the Creation Realm today.

He might very well have stepped into the ninth level.

"The specifics, the Sect Master will tell you one by one later."

Mo Shuokuang seemed to know what Meng Zhangqing was thinking.

"Alright."

Meng Zhangqing nodded.

Then his gaze fell on Mo Xiaoyu not far away.

The moment their gazes met.

The latter immediately gave a start.

She hurriedly looked left and right.

Becoming somewhat unnatural.

Seeing this, Meng Zhangqing’s mouth curled up slightly, and he walked over.

"How about it, little genius, time to fulfill your promise, right?"

"Hmph!"

Hearing this, Mo Xiaoyu knew she couldn't hide anymore and could only pout angrily, "I didn't expect you to be so powerful, but it's also thanks to you, otherwise our sect would have been in danger today!"

"I, Mo Xiaoyu, am a good sport; from now on, I am your friend!"

"Ding!"

"Successfully added Mo Xiaoyu as a friend!"

"Current favorability: one star!"

"Attributes pending selection."

"Triggered extra reward: Earth-grade Martial Art Proficiency Card *3!"

In his mind, the system's voice rang out.

Making Meng Zhangqing smile.

Not bad.

Finally added this girl as a friend.

And there was an extra reward.

Proficiency cards were something he was still a bit short of; after all, there were quite a few martial arts he still needed.

For example, the "Imperial World Sutra" on the Shi brothers.

It would be even better if he could get it from their master; he had seen the corresponding panel, and the proficiency was far beyond that of the Shi brothers.

It was just that as a Peak Master level figure.

The generation gap was too large.

It was also impossible to add them as a friend like the Pavilion-guarding Elder.

But one still had to have the thought.

What if it came true one day?

These Peak Masters were all treasures!

Obtaining any attribute from them could lead to a great surge in strength!

"Innate Sword Body, finally in hand."

The smile on Meng Zhangqing’s face grew brighter.

After all, this was something he had been longing for.

Right, find an opportunity to get that [Tyrant Meridians] as well.

People.

Truly are greedy beings.

Once they have this, they want that.

"Hey, is agreeing to be your friend really worth being this happy about?"

Looking at Meng Zhangqing’s "sincere" smile, Mo Xiaoyu didn't doubt it, and as her eyes darted, her small face actually turned slightly red.

"Of course."

Meng Zhangqing didn't think much of it.

He just wanted to hurry back, choose the attribute, and then fuse it.

Getting the answer.

Mo Xiaoyu immediately turned around, her big, rolling eyes wondering what she was thinking.

"Alright, the martial assembly has ended, everyone disperse."

"The sect will distribute the subsequent ranking rewards."

Mo Shuokuang said.

The so-called ranking was actually just stage rewards.

"Yes."

All the disciples left one after another.

And the various Peak Masters were the same.

"As for you, stay for a while, the Sect Master should still have words for you."

As the words fell, Mo Shuokuang took Mo Xiaoyu and left as well.

Phew~

Soon.

Xi Yingqing’s figure appeared.

"Sect Master."

Meng Zhangqing cupped his hands slightly.

"Today, the Meng family also came, I have sent word for them to meet you at Lingxiao Peak."

"You go chat with your family first."

"After you finish, come find me at the Sect Master’s hall."

Xi Yingqing said with a smile.

"Yes."

Meng Zhangqing nodded.

And the next second, Xi Yingqing disappeared from where he stood.

It wasn't that his speed was extremely fast.

But that he had completely vanished.

As if the whole person had been completely extracted from this space.

"Is this the strength of the Sect Master?"

Meng Zhangqing’s eyes flickered.
