Five outer sect elders sat in the conference room.

Sitting around the conference table were the five outer sect elders Ren Qingyang, Liu Qingfeng, He Nianyao, Lin Wuyi and Zhang Yunxue.

Xu Yeyu was also sitting here, feeling a little cold in his heart, wondering why he was called here as soon as the sect competition was over?

Isn’t this where the outer sect elders hold meetings?

If he had called a few more disciples over, he wouldn't be so nervous. Why did they just call him alone?

It couldn't be that he surrendered in the last match, right? Could it be that he couldn't surrender in the last match?

Xu Yeyu's eyes wandered between the five elders, trying to find some clues from their expressions, but the elders' faces were as calm as an ancient well and difficult to read.

The air was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, which was the smell coming from the incense burner burning in the corner.

Xu Yeyu took a breath and asked, "Is there something the elders want me to do?"

Liu Qingfeng looked at him, smiled and asked, "What is your relationship with Xia Xiaomo?"

Xu Yeyu had a question mark over his head. Was he called over just to ask this kind of question?

He Nianyao rolled her eyes at him, turned to look at Xu Yeyu and asked, "Did you not use your full strength in the sect competition?"

This question actually does not need to be asked. Any cultivator who has reached the fifth level can see that Xu Yeyu did not use his full strength in the sect competition.

Even when facing Tang Yu, who was at a higher level than him, Xu Yeyu always maintained a calm and composed attitude, without even taking a deep breath.

Xu Yeyu pondered for a moment and nodded slowly: "Yes."

He knew that such things should not be said openly, but the outer sect elders had already noticed it, and it was useless to hide it now.

He Nianyao nodded and didn't pursue the matter further.

Monks all have their own secrets. Some secrets even involve life and death at critical moments and cannot be told to others.

"Do you know that after this sect competition, Sunset Sect will select one hundred Foundation Establishment disciples to enter the secret realm of Tianlai Lake?" He Nian Yao continued.

Xu Yeyu nodded. Xia Xiaomo had told him about this. After the sect competition, the disciples who performed well should be allowed to enter the secret realm for some training.

He Nianyao continued, "You are one of the people who entered the secret realm of Tianlai Lake. We want you to find the Blue Sky Flower and the Soul Chasing Flower."

Blue sky flower is an extremely precious medicinal herb and one of the main ingredients for making elixirs.

The Soul Building Pill is a pill that can help cultivators break through the Soul Building Realm. It is a very scarce pill for every sect.

Of course, the Soul Building Pill alone is not enough to allow a cultivator to break through to the fifth level. Other natural treasures are also needed to assist in the breakthrough.

The secret realm of Tianlai Lake is only opened once every five years. So far, the disciples of Sunset Sect have only collected three blue sky flowers from there, which shows how rare they are.

"We don't know the exact location of the blue sky flower. One of our disciples picked it up on the roadside, and another disciple got it by killing a monster."

Xu Yeyu nodded and asked, "What about the Soul-Chasing Flower?"

"The Soul-Chasing Flower is located in a restricted area of ​​Tianlai Lake. There are three demon beasts in the late Foundation Breaking Realm and one ferocious beast in the early Golden Core Realm." He Nian Yao explained solemnly.

This news was brought back by a disciple in the Foundation Establishment Stage a hundred years ago.

At that time, thirty disciples entered the restricted area, and only one survived and returned to Sunset Sect, bringing back information about this dangerous place.

"That area is too dangerous. If other disciples go with you, they will only hinder you, so we want you to go there alone."

Xu Yeyu is an outlier among the cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, possessing strength far beyond those in the same realm.

In the sect competition, after he defeated Zhang Jia, He Mengting and Tang Yu, the outer sect elders all had the idea of ​​letting Xu Yeyu go to the restricted area.

"There is one thing I don't understand." Xu Yeyu said.

"You ask." He Nian Yao said.

"Why do you need the Soul-Hunting Flower?" Xu Yeyu asked directly.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind him: "Let me answer this question."

A man in a black robe sat down in the conference room. He had a handsome face, eyes as sharp as an eagle, and a sense of majesty between his brows.

The five outer sect elders stood up and saluted him.

Jiang Yu, the deputy leader of Sunset Sect.

"You should have heard that the leader of the Sunset Sect passed away twenty-five years ago." said the deputy leader.

Xu Yeyu nodded. This matter was not a secret. Not only the disciples of Sunset Sect knew about it, but people from other sects also knew about it.

The deputy sect leader took out a small wooden sign from his arms. The sign was made of peach wood, with runes carved on it and exquisite patterns carved on the edges.

There were dozens of cracks on its surface, but it was not broken.

"This is the sect leader's life plate." The deputy sect leader added.

The life card represents the state of life and death. When the holder of the life card is in danger of death, suffers fatal injury, or the soul is severely damaged, cracks will appear on the life card.

If you die completely, your life card will break.

Xu Yeyu was shocked. The life plate was not broken, which could only prove one thing!

The leader of Sunset Sect is not dead, she is still alive!

This news was too shocking. How could an ordinary outer disciple like him know it?

"You guessed correctly. The Sect Master is not dead, but we can't find her."

The deputy leader put the life card back into his arms and continued, "The Soul-Chasing Flower may be able to find the leader, so we want you to go to the restricted area to look for the Soul-Chasing Flower."

The Soul-Hunting Flower has only one effect. When it absorbs the items left behind by the person being sought, the color of the petals will gradually light up, guiding the direction of the person being sought.

They all wanted to use the Soul-Chasing Grass to find the leader of the Sunset Sect.

The outer sect elder told the deputy sect leader that there was a very powerful disciple in the foundation-building stage in this sect competition.

Possessing a strength far beyond this realm, he wanted Xu Yeyu to go to that area to look for the Soul-Hunting Flower.

"That area is a restricted area for disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage, so we never let our disciples go there."

The deputy sect leader said in a serious tone: "The Soul-Chasing Flower is important, but every disciple of the Sunset Sect is equally important. We don't want to gamble with the lives of our disciples."

The ferocious beasts in the Jindan realm will die there even if a hundred disciples in the foundation-building realm go to that area.

When the clan leader returns in the future, they will all face his wrath.

The leader of Sunset Sect disappeared in the secret realm of Ice and Snow Palace.

At that time, she was the first to arrive at the secret realm and escorted the disciples out of the secret realm.

However, after entering the secret realm, the other elders could not find any trace of the sect leader.

No matter whether it was the palace or the land of ice and snow, every place was searched thoroughly. After several days, no trace of the sect leader was found.

She seemed to have completely disappeared from the world, leaving no clues.

Everyone thought that the leader of Sunset Sect had passed away, and the top leaders of Sunset Sect did not come forward to explain the matter.

“The news about the Soul-Chasing Flower was brought back by a disciple a hundred years ago. There may no longer be any Soul-Chasing Flower there now,” the deputy sect leader added.

"If you decide to go to that area, I will provide you with protective magic weapons and talismans that you can use at present."

The deputy sect leader solemnly promised, "If you can bring back the Soul Chasing Flower from the Secret Realm of Tianlai Lake, I can give you anything you want as long as it is within my ability."

"You can refuse. I won't force you to go to that area."

The deputy sect leader and five outer sect elders waited quietly for Xu Yeyu's answer.

Xu Yeyu fell into deep thought and was reluctant to speak.
