Chapter 1032: Enlightening

“Ancestor, you still haven’t heard about it.” The sect master lowered his voice by quite a bit: “Recently, the Nantian Clan has clung onto an even thicker thigh; they made contact with the Soaring Immortal Sect.”

“Soaring Immortal Sect…” After hearing this, the ancestor felt a chill and had a shocked expression. He didn’t dare to say anything else.

On the other side, Li Qiye smiled at the new young king of the Nantian Clan: “I actually am surprised to see the Nantian Clan’s authority grow to this level.”

“I am representing the Soaring Immortal Sect, not the Nantian Clan!” The new king had a fearlessly smug expression.

“Clank!” He threw a banner down to the ground with the words “Soaring Immortal” embroidered on it. The level of calligraphy was flawless; it depicted a soaring dragon and a dancing phoenix, resulting in an oppressive atmosphere.

“I am working for the Soaring Immortal Sect. This banner is the proof!” He made a fist towards the sky with complete confidence and pride.

“Soaring Immortal Sect!” Everyone was astonished to see this banner. Even experts from imperial lineages trembled with apprehension.

The Soaring Immortal Sect was an untouchable giant in the Mortal Emperor World. No one knew where it was located, but none could deny its great influence.

It was the only lineage with five emperors in all of the nine worlds as well as the most ancient one. It was created by Immortal Emperor Fei and continued to stand strong to this day.

Immortal Emperor Fei was not the first of the emperors nor the first human emperor. The t.i.tle of the first emperor belonged to Immortal Emperor Gu Chun from the Charming Spirit Race while the first human emperor was Immortal Emperor Jiao Heng. [1. Fei = Soaring; Gu Chun = Ancient Purity; Jiao Heng = Overbearing/Arrogant.]

However, Immortal Emperor Jiao Heng, as the first, did not leave behind any lineage for the human race. Its second emperor, Immortal Emperor Fei, left behind a monstrous lineage.

There was a particular belief in the nine worlds. If one was to talk about the greatest emperor out of them all, then many people would think of Immortal Emperor Jiao Heng first and then Immortal Emperor Fei Yang and Empress Hong Tian. [2. Fei Yang and Fei are different emperors.]

However, when it came to the most influential emperor, Immortal Emperor Fei would be the first one to pop inside anyone's head.

He created the Soaring Immortal Sect, the strongest human lineage and the only one in all of the nine worlds to produce five emperors.

Its mysterious location didn’t affect its status in the nine worlds. Legend states that the sect had ruled over the nine worlds for several generations.

Thus anyone, even powerful imperial lineages, would feel apprehensive when talking about this sect!

And so, when the new young king of the Nantian Clan placed down the Soaring Immortal Banner, the crowd was shocked. They understood why he was acting so haughtily. It turned out that he found a great backing.

Li Qiye glanced at the banner on the ground. He couldn’t be any more familiar with this banner.

“Fellow Daoist, you are a foreigner so it is better if you don’t become involved in mundane matters.” Nantian Young King laughed proudly and a.s.sumed that Li Qiye was frightened by the banner.

He then looked over at Wo Longxuan and spoke: “I am someone in a high position, so I won’t bully the weak. As long as you take off your veil, my clan won’t make things difficult for you.”

“Why is it that I have to take off my veil?” She smirked in response.

The young king replied: “I am searching for an enemy in place of my friend. He has an enemy lurking around while you are acting very suspicious.”

After hearing this, she understood who had asked him to do so.

“Sacred Teacher, should I run?” She blinked her pretty eyes and affectionately latched onto Li Qiye’s arm.

Many people saw this and glanced over at the Mortal King real fast. They all wanted to see how this situation would play out.

Li Qiye smiled and glanced at the young king: “I am merciful. Go back from whence you came.”

The young king lost his patience and coldly uttered: “Monk, don’t interfere with this feud or even if you sever your mundane ties later, you will still have an inerasable shadow.”

Li Qiye cheerfully replied: “What if I insist on interfering?”

“Those who violate the Soaring Immortal Order are heretics, they are to be executed without mercy.” The king chillingly declared.

Such words were truly overbearing. Even though the majority of the spectators didn’t agree with the statement, they didn’t dare to say anything since the banner was right there on the ground.

They understood that the young king was a fox borrowing a tiger’s might; he was intimidating people with the soaring sect’s prestige!
