Suddenly two years of quiet passed by, and Wang Wei turned 13 years old. In the past two years, the Dao Opening Sect seemed calm and quiet on the surface. And the same can be said for the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty.
It was as if the shocking news about the whereabouts of a powerful cultivation technique such as the [Ancient Desolate Bodyrefining Scripture] was nothing but a stone sinking into a river without creating any ripples whatsoever.
The situation seemed that it would remain stale for quite some time. However, today was destined to be different, to be more exciting--at least for the people of the Dao Opening Sect that is.
Wang Wei was enjoying a rare relaxing day by drinking his ginseng tonic, when his head maid, Wang Ju walked in with some fresh information.
Wang Ju walked into the Wang Family’s Manor, bowed as usual, and reported the information that she had just received.
While Wang Wei was concentrating on the information at hand, Wang Ju looked at the Young Sect Master.
He had changed greatly the past two years. His figure became more thin, his complexion more pale. There were many heavy bags under his eyes. In general, he had the demeanor of a sick and dying man.
However, Wang Ju knew that these were just external changes.
As a cultivator in the Supernatural Realm, she could easily notice the internal difference of the Young Sect Master.
His single breaths were deep and long, signifying the ability to internal breathing and conserving energy.
There was a large amount of medicinal energy embedded in the Young Sect Master’s body. Despite not having started cultivating, there was a large amount of Blood Qi scattered all over his body.
These Blood Qi will make it a lot easier and faster for the Young Master to cultivate in the Bodyrefining Realm, and lay a powerful foundation for the future.
A few minutes passed by before Wang Wei finished reading the information, then he said, "So, they are finally making a move?"
"Yes, Young Master. A delegate composed of both Crown Prince Ji Song and First Prince Ji Su is currently on the way to the sect right now. They will arrive in about two days."
"What excuse did they use for this so-called visit?"
"We received a Diplomatic Invitation concerning the dispute over a certain Origin Source Mine. They also emphasized that it is necessary for the younger generation to get to know each other properly."
Wang Wei sneered and continued: "So, they can both investigate the news about the [Ancient Desolate Bodyrefining Scripture] and also try to find my information and determine my level of threat for the Heaven Mandate Battle."
Wang Wei then kept on looking at the window, looking like nothing in this world mattered to him. Then, he said: "Continue with the plan we had already prepared. As for the challenge, let the Crown Prince enter the First Trial of the Pagoda."
Two days soon passed, the delegation of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty composed of the two princes, Ji Song and Ji Su, the Prime Minister Zhao Yan, a Retired Prince of the Ji Royal Family--which is the equivalent of a True Monarch Supreme Elder of the Dao Opening Sect-- and a bunch of servants and bodyguards.
Sect Master Wang Tian and many of the Great Elders of different Halls received the guest, accompanied by some noteworthy disciples.
Upon arriving, Ji Su was the first to notice something odd. He did not see the Young Sect Master of the Dao Opening Sect.
In formal occasions such as this, only people with similar status and the same generation can receive each other. As the son of the Sect Master, only Wang Wei is truly worthy of receiving them, and yet, he was not here.
Ji Su easily noticed this because he recognized the person that was in the front receiving them. It was the #1 Contemporary Sacred Son, Han Li--who has just partially healed from his injury.
