Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun immediately guessed part of what was happening. He promptly rose to his feet and headed for the Council Hall.
By then, quite a few Nascent Soul cultivators of the sect had already gathered there, and as time passed, more and more arrived.
Even those Nascent Soul cultivators secretly dispatched by the sect to oversee its affiliated Nascent Soul forces throughout the Boundless Sea Region Cultivation World had come.
This included figures such as Azure Sea True Lord of the Azure Sea Azure Sky Sect.
Once everyone had arrived, Starry Sunny Grand Elder, seated in the chair of honor, spoke.
"Presumably, you all know of the Old Ancestor's orders. Whether cultivators from the Boundless Sea Region Cultivation World or cultivators from our Star Sea Realm, they have already begun steadily withdrawing from the island. In a few days, we too should leave."
"However, the Boundless Sea Region Cultivation World, along with the other Cultivation Worlds that contain sect affiliates, cannot be left without anyone holding the fort."
"Those cultivators originally dispatched by the sect to oversee affiliates in the various Cultivation Worlds, return to your respective regions at once."
"..."
After Starry Sunny Grand Elder had arranged everything, she dismissed most of the Nascent Soul cultivators present, leaving behind only Ling Pengyun, Heavenly Fire Old Lady Monarch, and Old True Lord Yun Qian—the three whose strength had reached Nascent Soul Completion.
She then said,
"Junior Sister Tian Huo, the Boundless Sea Region Cultivation World has only recently escaped the catastrophe, and demon and devil unrest may yet arise there. For now, there is no Nascent Soul Completion expert holding the fort..."
"Furthermore, the Blazing Sun Immortal Sect, currently the strongest Righteous Path sect in the Boundless Sea Region Cultivation World, falls under your Heavenly Fire Lineage.
