Golden Ao Island, before Biyou Palace.
When Qin Mu strolled out of the void with Lu Ya, the sacred land of Ten Thousand Immortals Pay Homage instantly erupted in jubilation.
Sect Master Tongtian had long been standing atop the palace steps, his dark green Daoist robe snapping loudly in the East Sea breeze.
Behind him, the Four Swords of Zhu Xian radiated earth-shattering, razor-sharp sword qi, as though cheering the return of their eldest senior brother.
"Hahaha! Mu'er, well done!"
Sect Master Tongtian burst into laughter, strode down the steps, and seized Qin Mu by the shoulders. The praise and pride in his eyes practically overflowed.
When he had watched Qin Mu erase the divine radiance of ending with one finger and shatter the Heaven-Burier Seal with one sword in the Water Mirror at Zixiao Palace, Sect Master Tongtian had felt that the wisest decision of his life was picking up this eldest disciple beneath Buzhou Mountain and bringing him back to the Jie Teachings.
What Dao Ancestor Hongjun? What great devil from a previous era? Before his precious disciple, none of them amounted to anything!
"Greetings, Eldest Senior Brother! Eldest Senior Brother's divine might blankets the world, shaking all heavens!"
Daoist Duobao, Saint Mother Jinling, Saint Mother Wudang, Zhao Gongming, the San Xiao sisters, and all the core disciples of the Jie Teachings bowed in perfect unison.
The way each of them looked at Qin Mu was filled with near-fanatical worship.
This was the eldest senior brother of their Jie Teachings!
Not only could he pin Heavenly Dao Saints to the ground and grind them over and over, but now, even those ancient Demon Gods said to have buried entire eras were effortlessly dealt with by their eldest senior brother as though he were pulling weeds!
