The news of Liang Tian leading his companions to defeat the Hidden Sect Alliance swept through the Hidden Cultivation World like a storm. This information was passed from sect to sect, creating a tremendous sensation.
Sects that had previously held doubts or even jealousy towards Liang Tian now had no choice but to regard him with newfound respect. Within the Lingjian Sect, the elders displayed expressions of admiration upon hearing the news.
"This young man managed to unite several friends from the martial world to defeat the alliance of the Poison Dragon Sect, Blood Demon Sect, and Yin Sha Sect all by himself. Truly remarkable," remarked a White-Haired Elder, stroking his beard in awe.
"Indeed, it seems our previous judgment was not mistaken. Liang Tian is indeed a rare talent," the sect leader nodded slightly, his eyes filled with appreciation.
Upon learning of this news, the Bai Cao Valley Master immediately summoned the disciples in the valley and said, "Liang Tian's strength and sense of justice in facing the unjust alliance are worthy of our emulation. If there is an opportunity in the future, we must befriend him and work together for the righteous path of the Cultivation World."
In no time, Liang Tian's name became legendary within the Hidden Cultivation World. Many Hidden Sects proactively sent envoys to establish connections with him.
On this day, the Chen Family Mansion was bustling with activity as envoys arrived in droves. Liang Tian was discussing matters with Xiao Zhan in the hall when a servant came to report, "Young Master, envoys from Lingjian Sect and Bai Cao Valley wish to see you."
Liang Tian exchanged glances with Xiao Zhan, who smiled and said, "Brother, it seems your reputation has truly taken off; these sects want to forge ties with you."
Liang Tian smiled slightly and replied, "Then let us invite the envoys in."
The envoy from Lingjian Sect entered the hall first, dressed in a white robe with an extraordinary demeanor. Upon seeing Liang Tian, he immediately cupped his hands in salute and said, " Mr. Liang, I have long admired your name. On behalf of Ling Jian Zong Zhangmen, I have come to congratulate you. Your victory over the Hidden Sect Alliance is indeed a matter of great joy for all. Lingjian Sect wishes to establish a friendly relationship with you; should you need assistance in the future, we will do our utmost to help."
Liang Tian quickly returned the greeting and said, "You flatter me; I merely did what I ought to do. It is an honor for me to receive Lingjian Sect's favor. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will certainly work hand in hand with Lingjian Sect."
Next, the envoy from Bai Cao Valley stepped forward and said, " Mr. Liang, Bai Cao Valley Master has heard of your deeds and is greatly impressed. Bai Cao Valley has always been dedicated to helping others and hopes to befriend you. Should you or anyone around you face any injuries or ailments, Bai Cao Valley will do everything possible to provide healing."
Liang Tian gratefully said, "Thank you for your kind intentions, Valley Master. I will remember this. If there is ever a need in the future, I hope Bai Cao Valley will not hesitate to assist."
Other representatives from various sects also expressed their willingness to befriend Liang Tian, to which he responded warmly.
After the envoys departed, Xiao Zhan remarked, "Brother, look at you now; your reputation in the Hidden Cultivation World has spread far and wide. Those sects that once envied you now have to come and curry favor with you."
Liang Tian's expression remained calm as he replied, "Brother Xiao, reputation is merely superficial. I hope to use this opportunity to show everyone my strength and character, so that I may face fewer obstacles in the Cultivation World in the future. More importantly, I want to protect those around me."
Xiao Zhan nodded in agreement.
However, not all sects welcomed Liang Tian's rise. The Poison Dragon Sect and Blood Demon Sect had suffered significant losses during the Valley War and were resentful, plotting in the shadows on how to deal with Liang Tian again.
"Leader, if we do not avenge this grudge, how can Blood Demon Sect maintain its dignity?" an elder from the Blood Demon Sect said through gritted teeth.
The Blood Demon Sect Leader's face darkened as he replied, "Hmph, Liang Tian is currently at the height of his power. We cannot act recklessly. We must first gather our strength in secret and wait for the right moment to strike him down."
The Poison Dragon Sect Leader agreed, saying, "Indeed, this time we must plan thoroughly and ensure he does not succeed again."
Meanwhile, Liang Tian did not let his newfound fame lead him to arrogance. He understood that the situation in the Hidden Cultivation World was complex and that this victory was just the beginning. He continued to diligently cultivate under Xuanfeng Zhenren's guidance while also managing affairs for the Chen Family alongside Xiao Zhan, enhancing the Chen Family's influence in both the secular world and Hidden Cultivation World. Chen Xue remained by Liang Tian's side, helping him through difficulties, and their bond deepened through these experiences. Liang Tian knew that more challenges awaited him in the future, but he was prepared to face everything unknown with his strength and the support of those around him.
