Chapter 1411: Chapter 1411: Honored Guest
The Divine Woman Sect is also compelled by circumstances!
Having the Sect Master personally take action, without much certainty of victory, is definitely a last resort. For any sect or power, the Sect Master represents the face of the sect.
In the city dispute between the Divine Woman Sect and the Ghost Leaf Sect, if the Sect Master of the Divine Woman Sect personally intervenes and ultimately wins, that’s fine. But if they lose, the Sect Master’s reputation will be damaged, and the entire sect will suffer a significant blow.
Moreover, both the Divine Woman Sect and the Ghost Leaf Sect are considered reputable forces in the All Paths World. Their city dispute garners widespread attention. If the Sect Master of the Divine Woman Sect gets injured in the battle, the situation would become even more awkward for the Divine Woman Sect.
Because of this, Zhao Tianmei has a grave expression upon hearing from her junior sister Liu Lixue that the Sect Master will personally take part in the city battle. However, the current situation makes it impossible for the Divine Woman Sect to abandon this city battle, as it would also bring many negative consequences to the sect, not to mention having to hand over a city to the despicable Ghost Leaf Sect.
"Yes, the Sect Master has no other choice. With so little time left, it’s impossible to find other Emperor-level experts to help." Liu Lixue nodded heavily.
"Senior sister, your Tanshan City is not far from Black Sun City. Should you go and take a look?" Liu Lixue asked Zhao Tianmei.
Tanshan City is indeed not far from Black Sun City. Liu Lixue passed through Tanshan City on her way to Black Sun City from the sect.
"Going to take a look might be good." Zhao Tianmei nodded.
"Then, senior sister, you should start preparing. We will head to Black Sun City shortly. The Sect Master and others should soon arrive at Black Sun City as well." Liu Lixue felt a bit more joyous seeing Zhao Tianmei planning to go to Black Sun City.
"There’s not much to prepare; I can leave anytime. But before departing, I need to meet a guest currently staying in Tanshan City." Zhao Tianmei referred to the guest as Jing Yan.
"A guest?" Liu Lixue’s eyes shifted slightly.
"Yes, this guest has recently arrived in Tanshan City and wants to learn about the All Paths Sacred Land, so I plan to introduce him to the Sect Master. Our Sect Master’s knowledge of the All Paths World is quite extensive." Zhao Tianmei nodded.
"Is the guest in the City Lord Mansion?" Liu Lixue asked casually.
"The guest is not in the City Lord Mansion but is temporarily staying at a restaurant in Tanshan City." Zhao Tianmei shook her head.
"Senior sister, let’s not delay. Call the guest over and then head to Black Sun City together. We should be able to meet the Sect Master soon in Black Sun City." Liu Lixue, usually active despite being a Divine Lord Realm expert, seemed anxious.
However, her relationship with Zhao Tianmei was good, likely because Zhao Tianmei treated her like a younger sister.
Upon hearing Liu Lixue’s words, Zhao Tianmei shook her head.
"This guest is named Jing Yan, and he is not an ordinary person. Junior sister, since you’re here, why not join me in meeting him?" Zhao Tianmei smiled.
Liu Lixue was slightly confused, looking at Zhao Tianmei with perplexed eyes.
Should they personally go and meet this guest named Jing Yan? Who exactly is this guest? Could he be an expert whose strength far surpasses theirs? But she hadn’t heard of a powerful figure named Jing Yan in the All Paths World. There isn’t even anyone with the surname Jing among the common Great Abilities.
"Let’s go! Let’s do so now. But junior sister, when you meet the guest, don’t be disrespectful. Just follow me, and unless necessary, don’t say too much." Zhao Tianmei said seriously.
"Senior sister, don’t scare me! I’ve faced many challenges reaching the Divine Lord Realm and have seen all kinds of people. Could this guest Jing Yan really kill me with a snap because of a few impolite words?" Liu Lixue rolled her eyes.
Zhao Tianmei glared at Liu Lixue.
"I’m serious. This guest’s strength is formidable, at least at the Second-tier God Master level. On his first day in Tanshan City, he slew three Martial Artists at the Divine Lord Realm. You might not be familiar with the Mo Family and Liu Family here, but they were prominent families you must have heard of. Now, these families are completely ruined, with their Family Heads, Divine Lord Realm experts, having been killed by this guest." Zhao Tianmei emphasized.
"What?" Liu Lixue widened her eyes in surprise.
As Zhao Tianmei stated, she has some understanding of Tanshan City’s situation. She knows the Mo Family and Liu Family her senior sister mentioned are major forces in Tanshan City.
She truly hadn’t expected that forces like the Mo Family and Liu Family would collapse so quickly, with even their Family Heads slain.
"Senior sister, I understand. Let’s quickly go see this guest. It’s intriguing that a Second-tier God Master expert is at a city as ordinary as Tanshan City!" Liu Lixue shook Zhao Tianmei’s arm excitedly.
Seven Treasures Restaurant.
"Lord Jing Yan, the City Lord has just arrived at the restaurant, requesting to see you."
Building Owner Zhuo Ming cautiously spoke outside the room where Jing Yan and his family were staying.
Zhuo Ming has also been residing in the restaurant during this period. With a formidable figure like Jing Yan staying at his Seven Treasures Restaurant, he must take care to serve him, dreading any mistakes.
Inside the room, Jing Yan stood up upon hearing Zhuo Ming’s voice and quickly flashed out.
"Lord Jing Yan, the City Lord is waiting in the lobby on the first floor." Zhuo Ming bowed promptly upon seeing Jing Yan appear.
"Thank you, Building Owner Zhuo Ming." Jing Yan addressed Zhuo Ming with a courteous gesture.
The two proceeded to the restaurant’s first-floor lobby.
Zhao Tianmei and Liu Lixue stood there waiting.
Seeing Jing Yan, Zhao Tianmei stepped forward quickly. Liu Lixue remained in a daze.
She subconsciously followed her senior sister upon seeing her move. However, she looked around and didn’t see anyone resembling the esteemed guest her senior sister mentioned.
She certainly noticed Jing Yan but couldn’t associate him with the esteemed guest, the Second-tier God Master level expert her senior sister mentioned. Thus, she overlooked Jing Yan.
Turning again to her senior sister Zhao Tianmei, she wanted to ask. However, before she could speak, Zhao Tianmei greeted the young man in a blue robe.
Witnessing this, Liu Lixue’s eyes widened in astonishment.
What’s going on?
Liu Lixue scrutinized Jing Yan, then furrowed her brows. She sensed that this person didn’t just appear young, but was genuinely young. Liu Lixue had a decent understanding of the Life Law, enabling her to keenly perceive life auras.
