More than a decade ago, just a few days after he and the Senior Sister arrived from the Flowing Cloud Realm, he was punished for making a grave mistake and sent to the Yin Wind Gorge. It was there that he encountered the Master of the Academy, Yin Tianheng, who once stood at the pinnacle of the mortal realm.
The group listened quietly as Gu recounted his past. Although they did not show any signs of surprise, their hearts were already filled with tumultuous waves of emotion.
Could that be fate?
After hearing Gu's stories about his experiences, Huo Lian couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy. Gu's journey seemed far richer and more colorful compared to their years spent outside the Sect.
He didn't really believe in fate. If everything were truly predestined, then could fate tell him whether he would reach the mountain peak again and see their master?
Gu shifted his legs and chose not to dwell on that topic any longer. Instead, he continued to narrate the origins of Tianlai Academy.
Having met Master Yin Tianheng, when the crisis in Tiandong City arose, he had Pure World Fox carry his token along with the legacy that Yin Tianheng had once entrusted to him. Keke felt that the time was ripe; Yong Wan believed Keke was an outstanding disciple. Eventually, Yin Tianheng appeared in Tiandong City once more, bringing forth the World-Shattering Sword into the mortal realm again. With one strike, he opened the Heavenly Gate and severed True Immortal foes, thwarting the Ninth Underworld's plot to destroy Tiandong City. After his master’s appearance, however, he had done nothing.
After the Battle of Tiandong City concluded, he traveled extensively. Through his own missteps and the methods learned from Master Yin Tianheng, he achieved a breakthrough with Scorching Flame.
He pulled out several books that looked like cheap market goods and handed them to everyone. They all stared at the contents written on the covers, unable to discern anything remarkable about them.
What secrets could these hold? It seemed anyone could read them.
Indeed, anyone could read them, which frightened many people—even those lofty immortals felt apprehensive. If things continued as they had before, Daoist Sect would surely misplace its trust just as it had with Master Yin Tianheng. Cigarette Paper and Beginning Path were too preoccupied with their own issues; Tai Xu Dao aimed for dominance while Infinite Path was riddled with infiltration from Ninth Underworld and Demonic Path. Limitless Path intended to secretly oppose Tai Xu Dao without incurring risks that could provoke invincible forces in the world. Buddhism and Daoism took Pudu and Tiandong as their responsibilities. All calculations led to only a few forces left that could challenge him: Dongyi's Great Qin Ying Clan, Nangong Family, and an academy represented by Worldly Affairs.
Why wouldn’t they target Great Qin Ying Clan?
Chen Si did not deny it. He had not avoided the twists and turns of the situation, and just a few months ago, the Great Qin Ying Clan had made an unexpected visit that lingered. Suddenly, his mind went blank, and then he heard the calm voice revealing a fact that was almost visible.
Two years ago, he had encountered Ying Zhan, the Legitimate Eldest Son of the Qin Empire, on the Northern Battlefield. A year ago, he visited the imperial capital of the Qin Empire and met the emperor who had taken the throne, gaining some answers and a promise.
Thus, he had formed an alliance with the Ying Clan. Had Ying Zhan come to help him resist the academy after suddenly arriving from the battlefield?
If Tai Xu Dao sought to dominate the Three Realms, then before the Cheng Dao Sect and Great Qin Empire were breached by the Nine Nether Alliance, they would not let him off easily. He did not know how many deities there were in heaven; perhaps the number of immortals in the Eastern Realm was limited. Unfortunately for him, no matter how many such immortals came, his master Yin Tianheng could kill as many as appeared, treating them like ants. It seemed that those who held a grudge against him were only from Mok Ming Academy, which had once betrayed his master.
He wanted to know what attitude his master Ren Shixing held. He wanted to understand what stance Worldly Affairs took.
As they walked and talked, they inadvertently arrived at Heart's Path halfway up the mountain.
Recalling everything he had experienced on Heart's Path, Gu smiled casually and strode forward. The few people behind him suddenly vanished from sight. The scene changed abruptly, and he found himself once again facing the most magnificent city in the World of Mortals: Tiandong City.
The Broken Wall stood before him, where an astonishing battle unfolded. Familiar faces appeared: Xiao Zhang, Hong Yulong, Tenglan known as Zhongshang, Mu Qinglong, Sima Wuduan. Gu realized he had returned to the Battle of Tiandong City.
When Gu caught sight of a figure standing sideways at the corner of the wall, a wave of dread surged in his heart.
"Shu... Zhi... Xian."
Gu Yi called out that name with a pause. A fiery red robe accentuated Zhi Xian's robust physique, exuding explosive power.
Seeing Gu not far from him, Zhuang Zhixian was suddenly taken aback. He then recalled the scene from a few years ago when he unexpectedly spotted Gu in the forest. Zhuang Zhixian still remembered their secret conversation back then.
"Am I supposed to make a move? Where did I go wrong?"
Of course, it was not on his side; his current position clearly could not tolerate their well-being.
"A sneak attack?"
Otherwise, why would they all call him the petty Zhuang Zhixian? He could not deny it. What about those hypocritical disciples of the immortals? Could he really be the petty Zhuang Zhixian?
Gu smiled bitterly as he faced Zhuang Zhixian, never expecting to meet him in such a manner. That day, in the outskirts of Puyang Xian City, he had seen Zhuang Zhixian as a Demonic Cultivator of the Transcendence Realm. After all, he could not deny that he had walked that Bai Rao Road.
"What? Regretting it?"
Zhuang Zhixian knew that with Qunqin's appearance there, he probably wouldn’t have the chance to make a move. It would be better to reminisce for a while and then find an opportunity to slip away. If he got caught, there would be no good outcome for him.
