Chapter 2130: Chapter 2397: Lingering Spirits!
Sima Qingyun’s words weren’t even finished before Ren Feifan interrupted directly!
“Absolutely impossible!”
This guy wants to affiliate with the elders of the Holy Gate?
It’s simply a desecration of the Holy Gate!
The Holy Gate is poised to ascend to the throne once held by the Saint Doctor’s Gate! Becoming a disciple of the Saint Doctor’s Gate requires rigorous selection.
What qualifications does Sima Qingyun have?
Sima Qingyun did not show much reaction to Ren Feifan’s attitude. If Ren Feifan agreed immediately, that would be strange.
He chuckled awkwardly and explained, “Mr. Ren, don’t misunderstand, I am doing this for Huaxia.”
“For Huaxia? I think it’s for yourself,” Ren Feifan said bluntly.
He’s dealt with Sima Qingyun a few times. Sima Qian is this man’s daughter, and she once tried to uncover the secrets of Saint Medical Peak.
But now, Sima Qian likely doesn’t have such intentions, although her father hasn’t given up.
“Mr. Ren, you really misunderstood me. If you don’t believe it, you can look at this document I prepared for you,” Sima Qingyun reminded.
Ren Feifan didn’t hesitate and opened the document. When he saw the contents, his eyes narrowed.
It turned out to be an invitation letter from a sect.
“What is this…”
Sima Qingyun explained, “Mr. Ren, as I mentioned before, this issue is present in both the secular and Hidden Gates. Some top sects have already united to discuss this matter because if something happens in the secular world, the Hidden Gate won’t be safe either. It just so happens that the decade-long sect competition is only a few months away. Currently, there are rules within the Hidden Gate that as long as a sect or force is among the top twenty, it will have certain seats to jointly discuss this issue!
I just want to get a seat for participation rights!”
Sima Qingyun’s words sounded quite righteous, but Ren Feifan was not convinced at all.
“Sect competition?”
Ren Feifan was somewhat unfamiliar with this term, but he could understand its meaning just from the words.
It was nothing more than ranking the sects and forces within the Hidden Gate.
It was estimated that, among these twenty seats, the Wang Palace, Destroy Holy Temple, Punishing Gods Alliance, Demon Sect, etc., have already occupied more than half. The Double Lotus Sect from North State should also have one, while the current Holy Gate is still too weak to compete for this seat.
Unless those disciples of the Saint Doctor’s Gate from Pilgrimage Mountain are willing to come out.
“Roughly how many sects are there within the Hidden Gate?” Ren Feifan asked Leng Qingqiu.
“Reporting to the Sect Leader, at least over three thousand sects.”
Hearing this figure, Ren Feifan was still taken aback. It seemed the situation in the Hidden Gate was even more tense than he imagined.
“Mr. Ren, as long as you agree, I have a way to easily get you into the top twenty,” Sima Qingyun said seriously, his eyes twinkling.
He believed this was a great temptation for Ren Feifan!
“Top twenty?” Ren Feifan sneered, “Even if you can manipulate me to become the first, I’m not interested. That’s it, I’m in a hurry.”
After saying this, Ren Feifan spoke to Leng Qingqiu and Dragon Lady, then headed directly towards the divine gate of Mount Changbai.
Regardless of whether Sima Qingyun had the power to manipulate the results of the sect competition, even if he could, Ren Feifan didn’t want to get involved with this man at all.
Sima Qingyun’s ambition must keep him constantly vigilant.
Sima Qingyun watched as Ren Feifan and the others walked away, clenching his fists. He had tried to negotiate amicably with Ren Feifan!
The other party wasn’t buying it at all!
Did he really think that with his formidable strength, he couldn’t be dealt with?
At this moment, an elder approached respectfully and asked Sima Qingyun, “Mr. Sima, what shall we do next? That young man is intractable.”
Sima Qingyun snorted coldly, “Since that kid seeks death, I won’t be blamed! I want to see how arrogant he can be in front of those people!”
“Then what shall we do next…”
“Go to the Hidden Gate!”
…
Six hours later.
Ren Feifan took Leng Qingqiu back to the Holy Gate.
Leng Qingqiu certainly knew about Saint Medical Peak. When the Saint Doctor’s Gate was destroyed by Destroy Holy Temple, she came here at the first opportunity.
Originally planning to live out her days here in solitude, she discovered that the Spiritual Energy at Saint Medical Peak was almost depleted, making it uninhabitable.
She later gave up and chose to go to the secular Hidden Sword Villa.
But when she entered the Sect Protection Array of Saint Medical Peak, she immediately felt a rich abundance of Spiritual Energy!
It was even not much less than the Spiritual Energy inside the original Saint Doctor’s Gate!
“Sect Leader, how was this… how was this achieved?”
Ren Feifan didn’t speak and just walked straight in.
“You’ll be even more surprised inside.”
Leng Qingqiu thought the Spiritual Energy here was already terrifying and nothing else could surprise her.
But when she stepped inside, she immediately found that everything, from the palaces and statues to the surrounding plants and flowers, was exactly like the Saint Doctor’s Gate that was destroyed back then!
Her eyes brimmed with tears!
Who would have thought she could see the Saint Doctor’s Gate again!
Leng Qingqiu touched the texture of every stone wall, waves of shock rolling in her heart.
Ren Feifan was naturally aware of her doubts and said, “Perhaps the Heavenly Path could not bear to see the first sect of the ages decline like this. Let’s go; I’ll take you to meet the disciples within the sect.”
Then, Ren Feifan took Leng Qingqiu into the main hall and met several core members of the sect.
He planned to have Leng Qingqiu be responsible for the cultivation system for the Holy Gate’s disciples.
And unify the cultivation techniques.
Although Leng Qingqiu’s cultivation hadn’t fully recovered, with the abundant Spiritual Energy in the sect and Elixirs, her power should soon return to its peak state.
After finishing all of this, Ren Feifan returned to the training room, lost in thought.
Pilgrimage Mountain must be visited, and the sooner the better.
It concerned the Locking God Array, the rise and fall of the Holy Gate, and even Xu Shihan’s life.
He couldn’t delay any longer.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
Ren Feifan scanned with his Spiritual Sense and said, “Come in.”
Luo Yin came in, half-kneeling before Ren Feifan, and said, “Reporting to the Holy Venerable, in the past two days, several strong auras have appeared at Saint Medical Peak.”
“Could it be the Punishing Gods Alliance?” Ren Feifan asked.
Luo Yin nodded, “Holy Venerable, it’s possible. However, those auras only linger briefly each day and haven’t shown further interest in spying on the Holy Gate. But today, something strange happened…”
“What strange thing?”
Those auras encountered a middle-aged man three kilometers outside Saint Medical Peak.
The middle-aged man exchanged a few words with them before hurriedly leaving.
The key is that the aura of this middle-aged man doesn’t seem to come from the Hidden Gate. I suspect the Holy Venerable’s identity might be exposed in the secular world?
Ren Feifan immediately guessed who the middle-aged man was!
Sima Qingyun!
“Is this man’s height a bit shorter than mine, very thin, wearing a blue robe?” Ren Feifan asked.
Luo Yin pondered for a few seconds, his expression changing, “Exactly as the Holy Venerable described!”
“Where are they now?”
“They left not long ago.”
“Good.”
Ren Feifan swiftly dashed outside.
