Cang Xuan Sect, Main Peak Plaza.
As the enormous Law Boat slowly descended and the disciples returning from the Profound Origin Cave Heaven, led by Chu Qing and Mo Lin, set foot on sect soil, thunderous cheers instantly engulfed them.
Sect Master Qingyang personally stood before the mountain gate with several peak masters, an undisguised smile of gratification on his face. Though this contest among the younger generation could not shake the sect's foundations, its symbolic significance was immense. The Cang Xuan Sect had been suppressed by the Sacred Palace for many years and desperately needed such a resounding victory to lift morale and restore confidence!
Countless disciples gazed at the returning figures, their eyes filled with fervent admiration. And when their gazes settled on the white-robed figure beside Chu Qing, that admiration turned into blazing reverence bordering on worship!
Mo Lin!
After the Profound Origin Cave Heaven, this name had become a living legend within the Cang Xuan Sect! Crushing Jiang Taishen, seizing two Eight-Colored Jade Walls, and finally using thunderous methods to "clear out" the Sacred Palace... every one of these deeds had already spread throughout the sect through the disciples who had returned ahead of them!
In the past, though Mo Lin had been strong, his fame had largely been confined to Sacred Source Peak. Compared to established top Saint Children like Chu Qing, he had seemed roughly on par. But who would dare think so now? Even the Sacred Palace's number one Saint Child had fallen to him. His strength had unquestionably made him the foremost figure of the Cang Xuan Sect's younger generation!
"Welcome back in triumph, Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters!"
"Senior Brother Mo Lin is mighty!"
The cheers rolled on like crashing waves, refusing to fade. Even some elders looked at Mo Lin
