More than half a month later.
Si Chenmie, who was at the First Tribulation of the Immortal Realm, had taken shortcuts and raced onward with all his might before finally arriving at the Martial God Hall where Great Emperor Xuewu resided.
The Martial God Hall, inside the main hall.
Si Chenmie stood in the middle of the hall, looking somewhat ill at ease.
He had never expected that when he came to the Martial God Hall, merely revealing his identity as a member of the Morning God Clan to the guards outside the gate would earn him such respectful treatment.
The guard had immediately reported to Great Emperor Xuewu, then returned and brought him to the main hall, telling him to wait.
Si Chenmie was completely bewildered.
Since when had his Morning God Clan carried such weight?
"Elder Si Chenmie, what brings you here?"
Suddenly, a woman's voice that tugged at the heartstrings rang out.
The voice sounded somewhat familiar to Si Chenmie. He followed it with his gaze, and when he saw its enchanting owner, his eyes widened in disbelief. "Young Clan Leader?"
The person Si Chenmie had addressed as the Young Clan Leader was a breathtakingly charming woman with a waist slender enough to be encircled by one arm.
Was she not the daughter of the leader of his Morning God Clan, the Young Clan Leader of the Morning God Clan—Si Chenyao?
"Young... Young Clan Leader, didn't the clan leader say you were in secluded cultivation? Why are you here?" Si Chenmie asked Si Chenyao in confusion.
Si Chenyao smiled. "I have already joined the Martial God Hall under Great Emperor Xuewu's tutelage. Elder Si Chenmie, did my father send you here to check on me?"
"Yes, but there is another matter as well." Si Chenmie answered awkwardly.
