Chapter 871: A Palace, A Sect, A Society, And A Pavilion (1/2)

After Huang Jinnan stated Nie Tian’s identity, all of the other Qi warriors started to look at Nie Tian differently.

The Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s mighty name was known throughout the starry river. Every disciple of this colossus enjoyed an enviable status.

However, even though Huang Jinnan had seen through Nie Tian’s identity, he didn’t seem surprised at all.

“Since you’re a member of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace and a successful hybrid, your name should be well-known across the myriad domains, but why haven’t I heard it before?” Huang Jinnan asked with a puzzled expression. “I believe this is the first time I’ve heard the name Nie Tian.”

He had long since overheard Nie Tian’s conversation with Yin Yanan and the girls, and had thus learned his name.

Han Sen snorted coldly and said, “Divine Son, even if he’s a member of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, his status can’t match yours.”

Xie Wanting’s expression flickered with astonishment. “Divine Son?”

“Brother Huang here is from the Five Elements Sect, and he’s the metal element Divine Son,” Han Sen said with a plain tone.

Xie Wanting, Yin Yanan, and Mu Biqiong all gasped with shock while fixing Huang Jinnan with revering gazes. “The FIve Elements Sect?!”

Nie Tian, however, was completely puzzled. “Is the Five Elements Sect very famous?”

Huang Jinnan frowned. “You don’t know the ‘one palace, one sect, one society, and one pavilion’?”

A stumped expression appeared on Nie Tian’s face. “Umm...”

Xie Wanting from the Water Moon Sect took a deep breath and explained to Nie Tian, “The phrase ‘one palace, one sect, one society, and one pavilion’ describes the four most ancient and powerful Qi warrior powers. The ‘one palace’ refers to the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace; the ‘one sect’ refers to the Five Elements Sect; the ‘one society’ refers to the Void Spirit Society; the ‘one pavilion’ refers to the Heaven Span Pavilion.

“The Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, the Five Elements Sect, the Void Spirit Society, and the Heaven Span Pavilion represent the peak strength of Qi warriors.

“Each and every one of them is protected by God domain experts, and that’s why they dare to stand up to powerful Ancientspirits and outsiders.”

Yin Yanan and Mu Biqiong fell silent upon hearing that Huang Jinnan was the metal element Divine Son of the Five Elements Sect.

It seemed that only at this moment did they realize why Huang Jinnan was so powerful, and all the other Qi warriors here took orders from him.

“The Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, the Five Elements Sect, the Void Spirit Society, and the Heaven Span Pavilion...” Nie Tian said inwardly.

Only now did he learn the names of the four greatest human powers.

“The Five Elements Sect consists of five sections,” Han Sen said in a low voice. “Each section has their own God domain experts, as well as a Divine Son or Divine Daughter, who is viewed as the future head of their section. Brother Huang is the Divine Son of the metal element section.”

Mu Biqiong turned to Nie Tian and whispered, “The Divine Sons of the Five Elements Sect enjoy a similar status as the Sons of the Stars of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace.”

Huang Jinnan fixed Nie Tian with a curious gaze. “If you’re a member of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, but you haven’t heard of me or the Five Elements Sect… I’m very interested in your story.”

“I grew up in a remote domain,” Nie Tian explained. “But I passed the Heaven Gate Trial, and therefore gained the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s legacies.”

Huang Jinnan’s expression flickered with astonishment. “You passed the Heaven Gate Trial?! Did you collect all three fragmentary star marks?”

Nie Tian nodded.

Upon hearing this, a clamor burst out among Han Sen and all of the other Qi warriors gathered by Huang Jinnan’s side.

“He’s a Son of the Stars, the seventh Son of the Stars!”

“Anyone who can pass the Heaven Gate Trial and collect all three fragmentary star marks will become a Son of the Stars of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, no matter what background he or she comes from.”

“This man is not just any member of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, but a Son of the Stars!”

“So he gained the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s legacies from the Heaven Gate Trial!But from the look of it, he hasn’t followed the ‘path of stars’ to the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s headquarters yet.”

“That’s for sure. If he had, he would have become a household name already.”

“The reason why we haven’t heard of him before is because he hasn’t returned to the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace yet.”

The clamoring crowd all stared unblinkingly at Nie Tian, as if they were looking at a rare treasure.

Xie Wanting’s face turned pale with shock.
