Just as several people were drinking and chatting, the gazes of Jiang Cheng and Yun Yun turned toward the outside of the hall almost simultaneously.
Yun Yun stood up from her seat, a look of surprise on her face: “It’s Teacher’s aura…
how did he wake up?”
Grand Elder Yun Leng’s lips curled into a slight smile; anyone who threatened the Old Sect Leader’s plans had to be investigated.
Yun Shan stood with his hands behind his back.
He did not summon Dou Qi wings but instead stepped through the void.
Every time his foot fell, ripples would undulate in the air.
When the ripples dissipated, his figure had already appeared a hundred meters away, extremely mysterious and extraordinary.
With a few such strides, in just a moment, his figure flashed and appeared in the center of the square.
A breeze blew, his long robe fluttering, giving him a quite transcendent and elegant aura.
“Yun Yun, come out and explain.”
Although Yun Shan’s voice was not loud, every word rang out exceptionally clear, making everyone in the hall feel it was deafening, their Dou Qi boiling.
Yun Yun hurried out of the hall, not daring to be negligent as she cupped her hands in a salute: “Teacher, why have you awakened?”
“I have already advanced to Dou Zong, there is no need to continue hiding.” Yun Shan’s expression was calm as he glanced at Jiang Cheng, who was still drinking in the hall.
His expression was much like Yun Leng’s, carrying a hint of doubt.
This person had no Dou Qi fluctuations at all, looking just like an ordinary person; his cultivation could not be seen through.
Either this person had no Dou Qi and was just a cripple, or his strength was above his own, in the realm of a Dou Zun.
Yun Shan landed on the ground with hesitation.
Seeing Yun Yun dressed in such a way, he couldn’t help but frown and say in a low tone: “Yun Yun, why did you come out dressed like this?
This isn’t like you.”
Yun Yun bit her lower lip, knowing she was being somewhat improper, and responded: “This disciple will change back immediately.”
After speaking, Yun Yun turned and left the front of the Yun Lan Sect hall without looking back, leaving the stunned crowd behind.
But quickly coming to their senses, they hurriedly knelt and bowed.
They hadn’t seen the Old Sect Leader for several years, and discovering that he had broken through to Dou Zong left them quite shocked.
Yun Shan remained calm.
Most of those present were high-level members of the Yun Lan Sect; rarely did disciples and elders sit side by side.
Yun Shan ignored the others and went straight to Jiang Cheng, looking the strange powerhouse up and down.
“Is your Excellency from the Central Plains?”
Jiang Cheng slowly put down the wine cup in his hand and said plainly: “That doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you.
Furthermore, for the Old Sect Leader of the Yun Lan Sect, who has been in seclusion for years, to suddenly come out to question me, isn’t that a bit of an overreaction?”
Yun Shan smiled, “Because your Excellency’s status is special, I was afraid Yun Yun might be young and arrogant and offend you, so I personally came out of the mountains.”
But since he wanted to act, then let him act.
Yun Shan’s finger moved slightly: “All of you go back and rest.
Act as if nothing happened tonight.
Inform the disciples that they did not see me.
If anyone speaks of it, the sect rules will deal with them!”
“Yes!”
Yun Lei and the others sobered up and immediately drove everyone out of the field, while telling the disciples to forget today’s events.
If a single word was leaked, the consequences would be dire!
Once everyone had left, only the Young Sect Leader Nalan Yanran, Grand Elder Yun Leng, and the former Sect Leader Yun Shan remained.
Grand Elder Yun Leng stepped forward and said: “Old Sect Leader, this person is extremely suspicious; he is very likely a spy from another country!”
“Grand Elder, how can you say that about him?
How could the gentleman be a spy!”
Although they hadn’t been in contact for long, Nalan Yanran knew that he was definitely not that kind of person.
“Nalan Yanran, it’s not your place to point fingers here!” Grand Elder Yun Leng’s eyes widened as he said: “Go back quickly, or else don’t blame this old man for being impolite!”
“Grand Elder!”
Yun Shan raised his hand to stop the two, then said in a low tone: “Your Excellency is named Jiang Cheng, right?
I have traveled the continent for many years and have never heard your name.
Could it be that your name is false?”
“Since you are unwilling to reveal your identity, then I will not force it.”
Jiang Cheng laughed: “There’s nothing to hide.
I won’t change my name for any reason.
My surname is Jiang, and my name is Cheng.”
“Jiang Cheng…” Yun Shan still thought of the powerhouses of the Central Plains, but he had never heard the name Jiang Cheng.
Could it be that he was just an unknown junior?!
Yun Shan shrugged; since that was the case, he could get straight to the point.
As long as he wasn’t from those specific factions, he could be at ease.
“Since your name is Jiang Cheng, I wonder what business brings you to my Yun Lan Sect?”
“Drinking and singing, must there be a reason?”
Jiang Cheng asked in return.
“Though there is no reason, the Yun Lan Sect does not intend to have much contact with outside powerhouses for a while.
In the future, I will definitely pay a visit.
I wonder if you would mind?”
Hearing these words from Yun Shan, Jiang Cheng slowly stood up.
As he passed by Yun Shan, he stopped his pace.
Turning his face, he said with a smile: “In that case, I will no longer disturb you.
However, Sect Leader Yun Shan, before I leave, I advise you: do not do what should not be done, and do not cross what should not be crossed.
Stop in time, and you can remain safe.”
Yun Shan frowned, not understanding the meaning of these words.
But just as he wanted to ask more, Jiang Cheng had already vanished.
Even he didn’t know how the other party had left.
Could he really be a Dou Zun powerhouse?!
Thinking of this, a sense of horror arose in Yun Shan’s heart.
If the other party was truly a Dou Zun, why would he appear near the Jia Ma Empire?
Did he have other designs?
Grand Elder Yun Leng spat on the ground, “He just left like that.
He really didn’t show any respect to the Old Sect Leader!”
Slap…
A crisp sound rang out.
Yun Leng’s face instantly became red and swollen.
“Ah?” Yun Leng’s eyes widened as he held his cheek with the palm print, looking at the Old Sect Leader in confusion.
Why hit him for no reason?
“You idiot, didn’t you see how he disappeared?!”
Yun Leng shook his head foolishly.
If he could have seen it, he wouldn’t be stuck at the peak of the Dou Wang realm.
“This person’s strength is above mine; he should have already advanced to that realm…
No, I must go find Yun Yun to clarify his identity.
If he really is, then you have caused a great disaster!”
Yun Shan, with a look of frustration, flicked his sleeve angrily and disappeared from the spot, leaving only the dazed Grand Elder Yun Leng.
At this moment, Grand Elder Yun Leng looked like a confused emoji, standing there stupidly, not knowing what had just happened.
Nalan Yanran covered her mouth and laughed secretly.
It really was as they say: if you don’t court death, you won’t die.
