Meanwhile.
Having just left the sect, Ling Pengyun sensed, with Divine Sense as powerful as that of a Void Refinement Mid-Stage cultivator, that quite a few cultivators were hiding outside the sect, watching it.
Some of them were even Void Refinement cultivators.
What was more, they were among the Void Refinement cultivators who had just attended the Void Refinement Ceremony.
They included Heavenly Lord Wu Tong, a Void Refinement Mid-Stage cultivator of the Five Elements Immortal Sect.
Clearly, after the ceremony ended, they had not immediately left the Frost Immortal Sect as they appeared to have done.
Strangely, though, none of the Void Refinement cultivators from the four ordinary Void Refinement powers surrounding the sect were there.
Senior Wu Tong and the others probably aren't hiding there with ill intentions for now. Otherwise, the sect would likely be in turmoil already.
They're probably waiting to see whether our sect's sudden rise in strength will spark trouble with those four neighboring Void Refinement powers.
They'll be disappointed, though. The sect has already reached an agreement with those four powers about how things will develop from here.
Ling Pengyun made these guesses after noticing them.
Then again, if the sect had not reached an agreement with those four powers and trouble had broken out, Heavenly Lord Wu Tong and the other cultivators lurking in the shadows probably would not have stayed as quiet as they were now.
Nine times out of ten, they would have fished in troubled waters.
After all, that was commonplace in the Cultivation World.
Since the sect remained peaceful, Ling Pengyun merely informed Old Sect Master Frost about Heavenly Lord Wu Tong and the others hiding nearby and urged him to stay vigilant.
Then he swiftly slipped away toward Primordial Unity Immortal City.
He traveled at tremendous speed
