The gazes of the two men and women were naturally directed at the few leaders, just like ours. However, judging only by appearances, nothing could be discerned for now. Besides, neither side had received all the intelligence yet, so there was no way to stir up trouble even if they wanted to.
After having the disciples take their positions, Li Tianjing slowly sat down on the throne. Dressed entirely in white, he truly looked extraordinary seated upon the rainbow-colored Heavenly Dao crystal screen throne. Even though the marks of age had appeared on his face, the enhanced appearance gave him a hint of the bearing of a righteous-path leader.
"This time, the mission of leading this batch of promising disciples to the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect will be undertaken by Vice Sect Master Shang Li and me. Vice Sect Masters Shangguan Zhao and Linghu Ying will remain behind at the Heavenly Realm Sect to handle sect affairs and await our return. What does everyone think?" Li Tianjing wore a democratic expression.
"Senior Brother Sect Master's arrangement is excellent," Shangguan Zhao said promptly.
"Junior Sister will certainly fulfill her duty," Linghu Ying said, having no objections either. This decision had clearly been made long ago; it was merely being announced now for us disciples to hear.
Li Tianjing actually did not feel at ease with all the righteous-path sect masters and vice sect masters heading to the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect. Two second-in-command figures still had to remain behind to keep watch. Naturally, he himself had to go. His connection with Li Tianjian was of paramount importance, and aside from himself, he would not trust anyone else to make contact.
"Mm. Good, then. There's no time to lose. I'll take this batch of disciples to the Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect now."
