Such was the situation.
He had actually been found by Ding Ling.
If he hadn't knelt so decisively,
he might have been finished off by a single sword strike.
Celestial Venerable Yuheng touched his neck with a look of relief. He knew that Greedy Wolf Celestial Venerable hadn't knelt—or, rather, had knelt too late—and had consequently died without leaving a whole corpse behind.
He didn't want to die.
With that thought,
Celestial Venerable Yuheng flew even faster.
He returned to the Nine Provinces Divine Sect.
Seeing the God Sect's construction proceeding in full swing, Dragon Seeds and prodigies moving through it, and countless geniuses bustling in every direction, he couldn't help being moved. He thought:
I had heard long ago that the God Sect was extraordinary. Now that I've seen it for myself, I realize I had underestimated it. In just a few years, this God Sect will probably become the number one sect in the Three Realms. Even the ancient sects created by Celestial Venerables of the Upper Realm may find it hard to compare.
He admired it inwardly:
As expected of an Ascender, the Martial World Myth praised by the players, a heaven-defying seed. Truly extraordinary.
He descended onto the city wall.
A beautiful young girl snapped:
"Stop! Who goes there?"
Celestial Venerable Yuheng focused his gaze and saw that she was a stranger. He couldn't help asking, "And who are you?"
"I'm Cuizhu, a disciple of the Nine Provinces Divine Sect. I'm on duty today. Anyone not wearing the God Sect's disciple robes is forbidden from entering the God Sect's territory without permission. You're breaking the rules!"
"I see."
Celestial Venerable Yuheng understood. He cupped his hands and said:
"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Cuizhu to inform Southern Dipper Celestial Venerable and Profound Moon Celestial Venerable.
