Taihua

"Who are you?"

Venerable Taihua slightly turned his head and looked at Tu Shan Jun.

Tu Shan Jun looked quietly at him.

Taiyi had been deeply taboo about the events of that year and rarely mentioned them, but he had spoken of them before.

When the sect had been breached, he, a Nascent Soul cultivator, had been utterly incapable of taking in the overall situation. Even the sect's Void Refinement saint ancestors had taken action then, and there had been no telling how many Venerable-level cultivators were present.

After they were scattered, he had only had time to take a few treasures and flee.

After a long silence, it was not that Tu Shan Jun could not answer about his identity. Rather, he was considering whether the Venerable before him would acknowledge him at all, and whether he might suddenly fall into the Venerable's hands.

After all, he had originally been the Main Soul of the Soul Banner, and the Soul Banner was also a Dao weapon suited for a Venerable's use.

This person had no need to deceive them.

Judging by the strength of his spiritual radiance, even Venerable Chuiyun could not compare to him. Tu Shan Jun had a rough outline in his heart of just what level this man's cultivation had reached.

Even a cultivator of this caliber could not enter and leave the Heavenly One Divine Separation Grand Array so easily. That meant he certainly possessed the corresponding token.

Then, looking at the fluctuations of his spiritual aura, it was a pure, orthodox Mystic Sect cultivation method—the inheritance technique most familiar to them. There was no doubt that this man came from the Taiyi Ascension Sect.

Precisely because the identity of the man before him was beyond doubt, it became even harder for him to answer.
