Chapter 892: An Old Friend Ascended Again
Editor: Henyee Translations
A few days later.
Jiang Chengxuan was appointed as the Vice Sect Master of the Haoran Sect. The news spread throughout the entire sect.
The reaction among the members was one of surprise, but upon reflection, it didn’t seem all that strange.
Not to mention the achievements Jiang Chengxuan had made for the Haoran Sect over the years, his cultivation level and strength alone left little room for dispute.
Moreover, his Shifu, Qin Shenwu, had ascended to become the only Mahayana Daolord within the Haoran Sect.
With such a background, it seemed only a matter of time before he would take charge of the entire Haoran Sect.
Many far-sighted individuals had already realized this.
Consequently, the number of people seeking an audience with Jiang Chengxuan surged, forcing him to choose temporary seclusion.
However, many turned their attention to his sole disciple, Jiang Anran, making her the focus among many fellow disciples.
Just like that.
Time passed day by day.
On this day.
On a certain Ascension Platform in the Floodgate Realm, as the light of ascension flashed, three figures appeared atop the platform.
If Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were present, they would recognize them.
The three individuals appearing on the Ascension Platform were acquaintances from the lower realms: Jiang Yuncheng from the Jiang family, along with Huang Wenyu and Huang Ling’er.
At this moment, all three of them were looking around with curiosity.
“Is this the legendary Spiritual Realm?” As the question was asked, a voice suddenly echoed near their ears.
“You’re correct. This place is the Floodgate Realm of the Spiritual Realm.”
“Huh?”
Jiang Yuncheng, Huang Wenyu, and Huang Ling’er immediately looked towards the source of the voice and saw two individuals sitting across from them.
One was clad in the attire of the Haoran Sect, while the other wore the garb of Thunderclap Valley.
“May I ask which lower realm you three have ascended from?
Do you have any acquaintances here in the Floodgate Realm?” the person across them inquired.
After exchanging looks, it was clear that Jiang Yuncheng, Huang Wenyu, and Huang Ling’er, just having ascended to the Floodgate Realm, still harbored significant caution.
The two individuals, realizing their hesitance, sought to reassure them. The cultivator dressed in the Haoran Sect’s attire said,
“There’s no need for such wariness. Both our Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley are not among those sects that disregard the rules.
You need not worry about your origins because, within the territories of our sects, all cultivators are under protection.”
Without waiting for a reply, the cultivator listed several names of lower realms, including the Nine Essences Cultivation World, sparking interest among Jiang Yuncheng, Huang Wenyu, and Huang Ling’er.
The mention of the Nine Essence Cultivation World led them to wonder if Jiang Chengxuan and Jiang Anran, who had ascended before them, had also arrived in this world.
As this thought crossed their minds, the cultivator in Haoran Sect attire continued,
“Did you perhaps ascend from the Nine Essences Cultivation World?
Do you have any relation to our Vice Sect Master Jiang?”
“Vice Sect Master Jiang?”
Hearing these words, Jiang Yuncheng, Huang Wenyu, and Huang Ling’er were taken aback.
By this point, they realized there was no need to keep hiding their identities.
Thus, Huang Wenyu shared their story with the individuals across from them, though he did not immediately respond to the mention of Jiang Chengxuan, uncertain if the “Vice Sect Master Jiang” referred to was indeed Jiang Chengxuan.
“Indeed, you have ascended from the Nine Essences Cultivation World.”
The two cultivators expressed their surprise, followed by a visible joy on their faces.
“Does that mean you are acquainted with our Vice Sect Master Jiang Chengxuan?”
When the name Jiang Chengxuan was directly mentioned, it became clear to Jiang Yuncheng, Huang Wenyu, and Huang Ling’er that there was no avoiding the topic any longer.
Huang Wenyu nodded, “Truth be told, we have a longstanding relationship with Brother Jiang.”
As he spoke, he roughly told the two of them about their relationship with Jiang Chengxuan.
When the two of them heard this, they could not help but reveal excited expressions.
“You are really related to our Vice Sect Master Jiang.”
They knew that bringing these three to the sect could potentially earn them the appreciation of their own Vice Sect Master Jiang.
Given the recognition that Vice Sect Master Jiang’s future within the Haoran Sect might very well include leadership, establishing a connection with him was an opportunity many sought but could not obtain.
With these thoughts in mind, they wasted no further time and shared the current statuses of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan with the three, leaving them utterly astonished.
They had not anticipated that, over the years, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had achieved such status within the Floodgate Realm.
Truly, they were among the most capable and talented cultivators from the Nine Essences Cultivation World, whose brilliance could not be overshadowed, even in the Spiritual Realm.
“If you don’t mind, why don’t you let us bring you to the sect?”
Hearing their offer, Jiang Yuncheng, Huang Wenyu, and Huang Ling’er were quick to respond.
Huang Wenyu cupped his fists at the two people opposite him and said,
“In that case, I’ll have to trouble you two.”
“Not at all, not at all,” the two immediately responded, shaking their heads.
“If anything, we should be thanking you for giving us this opportunity.”
With no further hesitation, the group of five set off towards the direction of the Haoran Sect’s gates.
Thanks to their swift pace, it didn’t take long for Jiang Yuncheng, Huang Wenyu, and their group to arrive at the entrance of the Haoran Sect.
“Three of you, I have already informed the elders about your ascension.
I believe they will promptly relay this news to Vice Sect Master Jiang.
Let’s wait here for a moment; someone will likely come out to greet us soon.”
Indeed.
True to their words, it was only a short while before two figures were seen flying out.
