Chapter 1011: A Future Master (2/2)

Ji Yuanquan curled his lips and said, “Our sectmaster told me that she should be free to do whatever she sees fit on this trip, and I can’t stop her.”

People’s expressions flickered with astonishment once again.

Ji Yuanquan’s status in the Void Spirit Society was second only to the sectmaster.

Whenever he went on trips with the sectmaster’s other three disciples, they all had to follow his commands.

Even though Pei Qiqi had only recently joined the Void Spirit Society, he didn’t even seem to have authority over her.

Many people’s expressions flickered as they looked at Pei Qiqi. Even Mo Heng and Lu Jiefeng’s eyes were filled with astonishment.

“This girl has just joined the Void Spirit Society. How come their sectmaster attaches such importance to her?”

“What makes her so special? Don’t tell me that their sectmaster has already made her his successor!?”

“This is unbelievable!”

They were well-aware that the Void Spirit Society was completely different from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace when it came to succession.

All seven Sons of the Stars of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace would be eligible to compete for the position of the Lord of the Stars. Each and every one of them would have to prove their strength. Eventually, the sectmaster, the vice sectmasters, and the twelve elders would determine the next Lord of the Stars together through a vote.

The current Lord of the Stars couldn’t simply name the future Lord of the Stars by himself.

However, the Void Spirit Society’s practice was to have the current sectmaster choose the next sectmaster.

Once the current sectmaster made his decision, he could simply gather all of the Void Spirit Society disciples and tell them about his decision, and the disciples would have to accept his decision unconditionally.

For Pei Qiqi, their current sectmaster had already broken his word that he wouldn’t take in any more disciples. Then, after taking her in, he had also kept her a secret. All of this made people wonder.

The fact that Ji Yuanquan was prohibited from interfering with Pei Qiqi’s decisions during this trip to the Domain of Nether Heaven proved that Pei Qiqi held a special place in the current sectmaster’s heart, which none of the other three disciples did.

With these thoughts in mind, the looks in everyone’s eyes changed as they looked at her now.

Sikong Cuo, Fang Yuan, and Nie Tian were all Sons of the Stars. It was still unknown who would eventually rise to power.

However, even though Pei Qiqi had only joined the Void Spirit Society recently, their current sectmaster seemed to have already set his mind on her. Therefore, it was very likely that she would eventually become one of the four most powerful humans in this starry river!

Because of this, her status seemed to have risen above Nie Tian, Fang Yuan, Sikong Cuo, Huang Jinnan, and Lou Hongyan, these Sons of the Stars and Divine Children.

After pondering for a long while, Mo Heng said, “If that’s the case, the decision is yours, Nie Tian.”

Upon hearing this, Huang Jinnan smiled and winked at Nie Tian.

“Alright, I choose to go with brother Huang,” Nie Tian said with a shrug. “We fought side by side in the Bloody Grave Mountain Range and that Lizardman domain, and we’re familiar with each other. We’ll make a good team.”

With these words, he walked towards Huang Jinnan.

Seeing this, Pei Qiqi also walked over to Huang Jinnan in a poised and elegant manner.

At the same time, Ji Yuanquan shot a meaningful glance at a man beside him.

The man was at the late Saint domain, and seemed to be an elder of the Void Spirit Society. Without saying a word, he followed Pei Qiqi to the place where Huang Jinnan and his people were.

“Welcome!” Huang Jinnan said, smiling. “With you two joining our team, I’ll have much less pressure on my shoulders.”

“Alright, there’s no use waiting for the other teams. Let’s move out now.” Pei Qiqi seemed to be saying these words to Huang Jinnan, yet her eyes were fixed on Nie Tian the whole time.

Nie Tian nodded. Then, before Huang Jinnan could say anything, she said, “Okay, follow me.”

As her jade-like hand scraped across the air, a spatial rift magically appeared in the void, following the track of her hand.

Many people’s eyes lit up as they stared at the spatial rift in disbelief.

“Brother Ji, she...” Lu Jiefeng said, as if he lost his words.

Ji Yuanquan nodded slightly and said with a somewhat bitter smile, “She’s already mastered many of our sect’s top-secret magics. Thanks to this, she’s now able to establish connections to space disruption zones, and use the countless spatial joints in them to travel among numerous human domains.”

“How... how is that possible?! She’s only at the Soul realm!” Lu Jiefeng exclaimed softly.

Ji Yuanquan sighed with mixed emotions. “Well... She’s different, different from anyone we know.”
