Rules

In martial arts sects, the usual tradition is that the Supreme Elder or the Sect Ancestor is the highest authority, while the Sect Leader is merely an executor.

This is because martial artists have extremely long lifespans. Some sect patriarchs have lived for countless millennia, and they often relinquish their leadership positions to their disciples in their later years.

Often, the chosen disciple becomes the sect leader, while the other disciples become elders. There is a difference in their status, but it's not that great. It's very rare for a disciple to command such awe and fear from the elders below. Such authority is generally only possessed by the sect's patriarch.

"The sects in Myriad Gods Ridge aren't very good, but their sect leader certainly acts all high and mighty."

Seeing a group of elders and Personal Disciple waiting at a distance, Jingyue Sha curled her lip and said disdainfully, in her opinion, the reason why Myriad Gods Ridge could be ranked alongside Pure Moon Island was only because of its large number of people.

Hearing Jingyue Sha's words, Jingyue Ping shook her head helplessly. She knew that Jingyue Sha had very high standards and was full of confidence in the future of Pure Moon Island, which made her look down on Myriad Gods Ridge, which was getting worse year by year.

Jingyue Ping said, "Don't underestimate the power of Myriad Gods Ridge. The Wanshen Sect Leader is no ordinary person, given his prestige within the Myriad Gods Ridge."

As they spoke, they passed through another large door, which opened by itself, revealing a magnificent hall before them.

The main hall was simply yet grandly furnished, with a rectangular table of Xuanling Jade placed in the center, and a person sitting in a VIP position at one end of the table.

He's actually a teenager?

Juvenile?

Jingyue Sha was stunned for a moment. She could sense that this person was not the kind of old monster who looked young. He should indeed be quite young. She could feel an extremely vigorous Life Fire from his body, as if he contained endless life potential.

Furthermore, the other party's cultivation level is only at the Dao Palace Realm, which also indicates that he cannot be too old.

Who is this young man? Why is he sitting alone in the main hall? Is he the leader of the Myriad Gods Sect?

Upon seeing Jingyue Sha and Jingyue Ping arrive, Yi Yun calmly pointed to the seats opposite him and said indifferently, "You two have come from afar, please have a seat."

Seeing Yi Yun's casual attitude, acting as if he were the host, not even rising to greet him or bowing, Jingyue Sha frowned slightly. This kid had no awareness of being a junior at all. Who did he think he was?

Noticing that Jingyue Sha and Jingyue Ping were not making any moves and were only looking at him, Yi Yun raised an eyebrow. "Do you two have any advice for me?"

"Who are you?" Jingyue Sha asked, her tone carrying a hint of arrogance.

Yi Yun naturally sensed the displeasure in Jingyue Sha's tone. He slightly shifted his posture, leaning back in his chair without getting up, and simply looked at Jingyue Sha indifferently.

Yi Yun's gaze was undisguised, a look that greatly displeased Jingyue Sha. As the Pure Moon Island Successor for so many years, she had always been aloof and accustomed to being the center of attention. In particular, most men felt inferior when they saw her. Many men wanted to admire her, but dared not meet her gaze because she was too dazzling.

Yi Yun not only stared at her blatantly, but his gaze even held a scrutinizing quality, which made Jingyue Sha's pretty face turn cold. "We're here to see the leader of Myriad Gods Ridge. How dare you, a junior, act so arrogantly? Are all the disciples of Myriad Gods Ridge so unruly?"

Jingyue Sha lost his patience and became quite rude.

"What do you mean by rude?" Yi Yun retorted. Although he was offended by the girl's words, he was not angry. He knew about the situation of the Pure Moon Island Successor. As a proud swan, it was normal for her to have such a reaction.

"The one who came with me is Master True Person Yuping, the Vice Island Master of Pure Moon Island. As a disciple of Myriad Gods Ridge, you should have stood up to greet the Vice Island Master Pure Moon Island, stopped ten steps away, bowed, and addressed him as 'Uncle-Master.' What kind of etiquette is it for you to sit here with your sword drawn and your horse in full armor?"

Jingyue Sha is becoming increasingly disgusted with the disciples of Myriad Gods Ridge. They recruit people every three days. It's one thing to recruit people with mediocre skills, but now, let alone strength, the disciples they recruit don't even have the most basic manners.

And that Head of the Myriad Gods Sect, what an arrogant air! He sent some hothead with his head on his shoulders to receive them. Where was he himself?

Hearing Jingyue Sha's words, Yi Yun nodded and said, "You're right. Disciples of major sects should pay their respects when they meet elders of other major sects... You're about ten steps away from me now, you can bow now. My surname is Yi, just call me Uncle Yi."

When Yi Yun finished speaking, the coldness on Jingyue Sha's pretty face softened a bit. She thought that Yi Yun was about to stand up and bow to Martial Aunt Ping. If she stood with Martial Aunt Ping, she could make this kid obediently lower his head. However, when she heard the second half of Yi Yun's sentence, her beautiful eyes widened in anger.

She almost thought she had misheard!

This kid wants me to bow and pay my respects, and even call him "Uncle-Master"?

"Boy, are you still half asleep?!" At this moment Jingyue Sha really wanted to take action. She wanted to beat Yi Yun up, make him crawl on the ground looking for his teeth, and teach this unruly disciple a lesson on behalf of Myriad Gods Ridge.

As for the leader of the Myriad Gods Sect, she couldn't be bothered with him. Since the other party didn't give face to Pure Moon Island, why should she give them face in return?

Jingyue Sha was about to step forward when Jingyue Ping pressed her shoulder down. After all, she was older. Although she had been angry about Yi Yun's rudeness, after carefully analyzing the hidden meaning in Yi Yun's words, she suddenly realized an impossible possibility.

"Young man, what do you mean by that? You're telling Yue Sha to call you 'Master Uncle'... You wouldn't be saying you're the leader of the Myriad Gods Ridge, would you!?"

When Jingyue Ping said this, Jingyue Sha was stunned. Only then did she understand what she hadn't been able to figure out before.

In this main hall, there was only Yi Yun. Elder Sun had respectfully invited them in to pay their respects to the Sect Leader of the Myriad Gods, but they did not see the Sect Leader. They only saw this young man. Unless, this young man is the Sect Leader of the Myriad Gods!

Realizing this, Jingyue Sha looked at Yi Yun in disbelief, her small mouth slightly open, unable to close it for a long time.

How is this possible?!

The Myriad Gods Ridge sect, a vast sect on par with Pure Moon Island and Tianshu Gate, boasts a leader with an exalted position and immense power, controlling the lives of countless beings within a radius of tens of millions of miles. And yet, he is... such a young boy?

Jingyue Sha possesses unparalleled talent, unmatched by anyone of her age. Her status on Pure Moon Island is also extremely noble, and she is always the center of attention wherever she goes. However, even so, she is only Pure Moon Island Successor, and it will probably be another ten thousand years before she can inherit the position of island lord.

But this young man before me... he's already the leader of all gods!?
