Chapter 310: Congratulations

Three days passed in a flash. On this day, the Wan Kui Sect headquarters, which should have been bustling with noise and excitement, was uncharacteristically somewhat desolate.

Watching the sparse representatives from various forces arriving to offer their congratulations, the many Elders of the Wan Kui Sect had faces as dark as water; only Jiang Yu, at the central pavilion, remained calm in expression, quietly savoring the fine wine in his cup.

"Since you have come, why not show yourself?" Stopping the movement of his hand, Jiang Yu took out a new cup, filled it with fine wine, and said with a smile.

As his voice fell, a figure in white suddenly appeared opposite Jiang Yu, wearing a look of surprise, "You were actually able to discover me?"

Xiao Han had quite a bit of confidence in his own concealment techniques, yet he had not expected to fail here.

"Just a small trick, nothing worth showing off," Jiang Yu said modestly. His fingers moved slightly, and countless Dou Qi threads, invisible to the naked eye, emerged, densely forming a giant web.

Xiao Han suddenly realized, and no longer overthinking it, he drank the wine in his cup in one gulp, his tone carrying a hint of teasing:

"It seems your goal of restoring the Wan Kui Sect is somewhat difficult to achieve!"

When Xiao Han snuck into the Wan Kui Sect, he naturally noticed the extremely sparse congratulatory party. To put it bluntly, even if a second-rate force were established, it wouldn't have such a poor showing!

"Everything should follow fate; there is no need to force it!" Jiang Yu was instead very calm, leaving Xiao Han somewhat speechless.

"Why, do you need me to make an announcement?" Xiao Han finally brought up the real business; wasn't he here to hold up the stage?

"Then many thanks." Jiang Yu did not refuse. Although he did not care about so-called reputation, the Wan Kui Sect had encountered a Waterloo upon its first establishment, and it did not look good on him as the Sect Master!

"Good." Xiao Han smiled faintly and casually snapped his fingers. A line of ice-blue characters slowly emerged above the firmament: "Ice Saint of Langya Pavilion congratulates the establishment of the Wan Kui Sect!"

At the same time, this voice also rang in the depths of people's hearts. Watching the snowflakes slowly drifting down from the sky, everyone was shocked beyond measure.

"The Ice Saint actually came in person to offer congratulations; this Wan Kui Sect is truly not simple!"

"You don't need to tell me it's not simple. It's not like you don't know that their Sect Master defeated the strongest experts of all the other sects!"

"Heh! That group of ignorant people thought they could make the Wan Kui Sect look bad by joining forces. Who would have thought that they actually had a connection to the Langya Pavilion."

"Who's to say otherwise? With the relationship with Langya Pavilion, this Wan Kui Sect will be prosperous from now on."

The news of the Wan Kui Sect also shocked the secret agents sent by other forces nearby.

"Damn it, how could this Wan Kui Sect have a relationship with Langya Pavilion? Quickly return and report to the Sect Master."

Just as those below were discussing spiritedly because of Xiao Han's actions, Jiang Yu, who was observing this scene, revealed a strange expression, "I didn't expect the great name of the Ice Saint to be so useful."

"Heh. It is merely some insignificant reputation I made back then in the Central Plains. If Brother Jiang were willing, I fear you would have been famous throughout the Central Plains long ago."

Xiao Han did not take it to heart. So-called reputation would not have any impact on the growth of strength, but when walking outside, having some reputation always made things more convenient.

"Reputation, is it?" Jiang Yu did not speak, silently extending his slender hand toward Xiao Han.

The latter was stunned for a moment, then felt somewhat helpless, casually tossing out a Storage Ring, "I didn't expect you to actually remember this matter!"

The Storage Ring Xiao Han gave was nothing else; it contained the batch of secret treasures of the Wan Kui Sect that the two had agreed upon back then.

Jiang Yu took the Storage Ring and put it away without checking it, "I merely hope to be able to collect the entire collection of the Wan Kui Sect."

"As you wish." Xiao Han waved his hand, his tone shifting as he asked: "How do you intend to act today?"

Looking at the crowd below, Xiao Han's eyes held curiosity. Even with the blessing of the Langya Pavilion's reputation, the number of people who arrived afterward was not many, and their strength was not too great.

Especially since none of the hegemon-level sects in the Southwest Region of the Central Plains that were in Xiao Han's impression had come.

If it were up to Xiao Han, a group of guys who climbed up the nose to get on the face would have long been killed by him to warn the others; where would there be so much trouble?

Hearing this, Jiang Yu only revealed a mysterious smile, "I ask the Ice Saint to wait and see."

………

On the other side, inside the Heavenly Tomb.

At this time, the group had already successfully passed through the entrance of the third level and stepped into the third level of the Heavenly Tomb.

"Big Brother, let's travel together for the rest of the road!" Xiao Yan took the initiative to suggest; after all, the third level of the Heavenly Tomb was not like the first two levels with only a few small cats and kittens.

Seven or eight-star Energy Bodies could be seen everywhere, and nine-star ones were not rare. If one were unlucky enough to run into an Energy Body at the Saint Realm, one wouldn't even have a chance to escape with their life.

Compared to traveling alone, traveling together was less difficult.

Regarding this, Xiao Ding did not refuse, not because he was afraid of his own danger, but because he was worried about Xiao Yan's safety.

This final stretch of the road was fraught with crises. He had a trump card to save his life, but that did not mean Xiao Yan could be safe and sound; it was safer to keep the latter under his own nose.

And the six-person team, which gathered the power of the young geniuses of the Ancient Xiao Clan, although crises emerged one after another in the third level of the Heavenly Tomb, generally speaking, it could be considered safe and sound.

After the few became familiar with each other, Gu Qingyang and the others also asked:

"I wonder what the two from the Xiao Clan intend to do by heading to the Tomb Mansion of Senior Xiao Xuan? Is there any relevant intelligence?"

Regarding these probing words, Xiao Yan pushed all the questions to Xiao Ding:

"That would have to be asked of my Big Brother; he is the one fully in charge this time."

Sensing that everyone's gazes had shifted to him, Xiao Ding said with an expressionless face:

"Nothing much, it is just that my Xiao Clan believes that Ancestor Xiao Xuan possessed heaven-reaching abilities and would not disappear from the mortal world so easily. We want to enter it to find a way to resurrect the ancestor."

"Uh..." Gu Qingyang and the others looked at each other, and intense suspicion arose.

Not to mention that Xiao Ding had so easily revealed their purpose, it was completely inconsistent with the composure and scheming he had shown for many days.

Moreover, the special nature of the Heavenly Tomb was known to almost everyone. The experts sent into the Heavenly Tomb had almost no hope left and could be judged as existing in ashes, especially legendary experts like Xiao Xuan; resurrection was almost a fantasy.

Was this just fobbing them off?

However, from this, they could also sense that Xiao Ding and Xiao Yan were seemingly trusting of their group, but in reality, they were deeply guarded.

But this was not something incomprehensible. Not to mention that the relationship between the Ancient Xiao Clan had already faded under the washing of the river of time, even in the past, the relationship between the two families was not good enough to say everything.

Just as everyone was preparing to continue moving forward, Xiao Ding, who was at the very front, paused his steps, his figure coming to an abrupt halt, and he said with a solemn expression:

"I'm afraid it won't be easy to get through this!"
