The two flew across the sky.
After several tens of minutes of flight, they arrived at the Huoyun Sect.
The Huoyun Sect was located in the Flame Mountain Range, a place no one would normally visit.
As the name suggested, the Flame Mountain Range was filled with volcanoes, always at risk of eruption.
The Huoyun Sect was situated in the only area of the Flame Mountain Range without a volcanic crater. As Wu Tian landed, he immediately smelled a strong scent of sulfur.
He couldn't help but say, "Sect Leader Shen, what were you thinking? How could you build a sect in a place like this?"
"Look, isn't the smell a bit too strong?"
These words clearly offended Shen Fengyao. She said coldly, "You don't like it? If you don't like it, you can leave."
"This is just how the Huoyun Sect is. Do you expect us to relocate the entire sect just for you?"
Seeing Shen Fengyao angry again, Wu Tian could only say sheepishly, "No, no, I was just saying."
"It's quite nice here. We can even soak in hot springs sometimes. I'm so envious, haha."
This attitude made Shen Fengyao roll her eyes again.
She said, "Be careful once we go inside. Don't talk nonsense."
"My master is not someone with a good temper. If you offend him, you'll surely face consequences."
"Your master?" Wu Tian was taken aback. "Who is your master?"
Shen Fengyao said, "My master is known as the Huoyun Old Ancestor. Even the sect leaders of the Eight Great Divine Sects show him respect."
"So don't think you're all that just because you've become a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. My master has his ways of dealing with you."
"Is that so?" Wu Tian was surprised.
It seemed that although the Huoyun Sect was not among the Eight Great Divine Sects, its own strength was still quite impressive.
Wu Tian followed Shen Fengyao into the main hall of the Huoyun Sect. At this moment, several elders were already standing in the hall, their cultivation levels around the second or third turn Golden Immortal stage.
Upon seeing Shen Fengyao enter, the elders immediately gathered around her and said, "Sect Leader, you're back?"
"Why did the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect's assembly end so quickly?"
As soon as Shen Fengyao returned, she resumed her powerful and aloof demeanor.
She said expressionlessly, "It's nothing. Just a minor incident occurred, but it has been resolved."
"Where is the Old Sect Leader? I need to find him about something."
An elder said, "The Old Sect Leader is practicing in his usual spot."
"You know the Old Sect Leader's temper. He dislikes being disturbed when he's cultivating."
Shen Fengyao said coldly, "I don't need you to remind me of that. You just need to mind your own business."
With that, she led Wu Tian out again.
Looking at her cold demeanor, Wu Tian couldn't help but whisper, "Hey, there's no need for you to be like this, is there?"
"After all, he's an elder of your Huoyun Sect. Isn't it a bit impolite of you to act this way?"
Shen Fengyao replied without looking back, "Do you think I'm like you?"
"You are the successor of the God of Thunder, the savior of this world. If you want to be a sect leader, it's naturally easy."
"But as a woman, my qualifications are even shallower than theirs. If I don't act this way, how else can I subdue them?"
Wu Tian was slightly stunned.
From Shen Fengyao's words, he could easily tell that being the Sect Leader was quite stressful for her.
Indeed, in many cases, the position you hold dictates the kind of person you must be.
Even if you have no choice, there's nothing you can do about it.
Wu Tian followed Shen Fengyao as they flew, eventually landing on a volcano.
This was the largest volcano in the Flame Mountain Range, filled with a pungent smell of sulfur everywhere.
Even Wu Tian had to use his immortal energy to resist, just to avoid throwing up.
At this moment, white mist had enveloped the entire mountaintop.
And from the front, Wu Tian sensed a profound aura.
This aura was hotter than the volcano's temperature, as if any closer, even one's soul would be burned to ashes.
Shen Fengyao's expression became much more solemn. She said respectfully into the mist, "Master, I'm here."
A deep voice came from the mist, "Yao'er, why are you also starting to disregard the rules?"
"Don't you know when you should find me and when you shouldn't?"
Shen Fengyao glanced at Wu Tian, then said, "Disciple did not intend to disturb Master's cultivation."
"But today, disciple has brought someone who Master must see."
The voice said, "Who is it that requires me to see them personally?"
"If it's the sect leaders of the Eight Great Divine Sects, then forget it. Let them wait."
"After I finish cultivating, I will naturally go to them."
Hearing this, Wu Tian secretly clicked his tongue.
This Huoyun Old Ancestor was too domineering!
He didn't even give face to the Eight Great Divine Sects?
Shen Fengyao continued, "No, Master, you must see this person now."
"Because he is the successor of the God of Thunder and the God of Medicine, the new Sect Leader of the Sacred Thunder Sect, and even... the Son of the Sacred Dragon."
The moment Shen Fengyao finished speaking, Wu Tian deeply felt a powerful aura surge out from the mist.
The entire volcano seemed to begin to shake.
And from within the mist, a fiery red figure shot out, appearing directly in Wu Tian's sight.
"What did you say?!" the person exclaimed, "Son of the Sacred Dragon? You found him?"
Shen Fengyao nodded, then pointed at Wu Tian and said, "That's right, Master. This person is indeed the Son of the Sacred Dragon."
The person's gaze immediately locked onto Wu Tian.
This gaze was so majestic and carried a burning aura.
Just by making contact, Wu Tian felt his body begin to burn.
The person before him appeared to be a middle-aged man with a head full of red hair and an exceptionally robust physique.
He looked like a burning lion.
For a moment, even Wu Tian couldn't help but swallow his saliva, then clasped his hands and said, "Greetings, Senior Huoyun. My name is Wu Tian."
The Huoyun Old Ancestor scrutinized Wu Tian for a while, then said to Shen Fengyao, "Yao'er, what is going on?"
"This is clearly a young boy in his early twenties. How can you say he is the Son of the Sacred Dragon?"
"Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
Shen Fengyao shook her head and said, "Master, you know my character. I would never make a mistake in such matters."
"Although this Wu Tian is only in his early twenties, he is already a Grand Unity Golden Immortal."
"What did you say?!"
Hearing this, the Huoyun Old Ancestor's previously steady aura
instantly became powerful again.
