The sect is full of evildoers, but I am the eldest brother.

Deng Xianzhi is Elder Deng's full name. He brought the displaced Tang siblings back to the Hundred Refinements Pavilion. He took meticulous care of them, personally attending to every detail, and watched the two siblings grow up.

The Hundred Refinement Pavilion has many different schools of thought, making it a vibrant and diverse place. Elder Deng is Tang Yi's direct superior and one of the few relatives she has in the world besides her brother Tang Han.

If the younger generation fails to provide adequate hospitality, the guardians behind it should naturally be held responsible.

Although Tang Yi is not young, and she is a noble five-star weapon refiner, compared to the many old monsters present, aside from the Flame God's power flowing within her, Tang Yi is at most just a callow child.

Seeing that Tang Yi wanted to say something more, Elder Deng stepped forward, blocking Tang Yi's way, shook his head to indicate that there was no need to say more, and then bowed to the crowd around him, saying: "Tang Yi was able to serve as an elder of this sect by the personal examination conducted by this old man and several senior elders in the hall. It was fair and just, and there was absolutely no cheating, favoritism, or violation of laws and regulations."

"good."

The Hundred Refinements Ancestor also stepped forward and said impartially, "Elder Tang was able to pass the assessment and take office under the personal supervision of several Supreme Elders, including myself. With her contributions to the sect, her abilities, and her character, she is more than qualified for this position."

Although Elder Deng was also an elder, he was Tang Yi's direct superior.

His rank is one level higher than Tang Yi's.

However, compared to the high-ranking members of the Hundred Refinements Society present, they seemed somewhat inadequate.

In contrast, the Hundred Refinements True Ancestor was different.

He was not only the successor to the Emperor's Pearl personally chosen by wise and virtuous men, but also a well-known leader in the desert, with an excellent reputation, proficient in both literature and martial arts, possessing both strength and fame.

Since even he has spoken, aside from the three patriarchs who returned during the crisis of the Hundred Refinements Pavilion, the many high-ranking members of the Hundred Refinements Pavilion present should at least give him some face.

However, this scene was witnessed by the Wise Man.

With external troubles still unresolved, internal strife erupts, and to make matters worse, the situation unfolds right under the enemy's nose...

It's so disappointing...

"Those old guys..."

Tang Yi clenched her fists inwardly, then suddenly seemed to remember something, a bright light flashed in her eyes, and she turned to pull at Gu Yi, who was covering his chin and pretending to think, and said anxiously, "Aren't you very good with words?"

"what?"

"What are you 'ha ha ha'ing about? Hurry up and get up there, give these old guys a good talking to!"

Gu Yi was speechless for a moment, thinking to himself, "Elder Tang, you really think highly of me..."

How could a low-level cultivator at the third realm, who could be crushed with a stomp of his foot, dare to insult so many powerful and influential people who had ascended to the other shore?

Among them are ancient monsters from the Yang Heaven, what's the difference between this and lighting a lamp in a latrine?

"What are you still standing there for?"

Tang Yi urged quickly in a low voice, "With the Refining Ancestor here, what are you afraid of! Besides, you have the Ice Glass Bead on you. According to past practice, whoever can wield this bead will be the master of the Hundred Refinements Pavilion!"

"Really?"

Gu Yi was somewhat suspicious.

Given the current situation, it seems these old fogies aren't giving much face to the previous holder of the Imperial Pearl...

Are you sure you're not lying to him?

"Of course it's true!"

Tang Yi seemed to see Gu Yi's concerns and said, "Don't be fooled by how fierce these old guys are. Normally, even if the Refining Ancestor pours tea for them, they would have to stand up and accept it with both hands. Even our Supreme Elder is no exception!"

Perhaps they haven't seen the powerful side of the Hundred Refinements True Ancestor.

The Hundred Refinements Ancestor always treated people with a kind and approachable attitude.

So much so that Gu Yi subconsciously overlooked the fact that the Hundred Refinement True Ancestor, who had personally entrusted the Emperor Pearl to him, was not merely the leader of the Great Desert...

Or perhaps it was the supreme master who cultivated a seven-star weapon refiner!

At least in the past, none of the wise men, including the teachers of the Hundred Refinements Pavilion, Mingrui and Yuji, had been able to cultivate a weapon refiner as outstanding as "Thousand Machines Hundred Refinements".

And it's not just his skill in weapon crafting.

Shen Jin's talent for cultivation was once unparalleled among his peers.

He was one of the earliest and most famous prodigies in the Five Regions!

Not to mention his peers, ten years ago, Shen Jin was already a powerhouse comparable to the Hundred Refinement True Ancestor, or even stronger and more monstrous than the Hundred Refinement True Ancestor!

The Hundred Refinements True Ancestor was the strongest person present besides the three patriarchs!

A prodigy like Shen Jin, if born in any era, could become a leader of his time and guide an era.

Unfortunately, he was born in a golden age of flourishing development!

There are at least ten prodigies like him!

And this includes, but is not limited to, these ten!

Even Shen Jin himself was just a bottom-ranked loser compared to those geniuses, but this bottom-ranked loser was enough to surpass millions of people in the world!

In the art of weapon crafting, he is truly the number one person in the present and future generations!

"Then I'll, well, make a fool of myself."

Gu Yi cleared his throat in a mock manner and took a step forward.

From the moment he appeared, Mo Xinren had already noticed him.

It's the kind of thing where you're always on guard!

However, what Mo Xinren was wary of was not Gu Yi himself, but a female cultivator who was a baby-raising woman, whose strength was comparable to a super power and whose strength was ridiculously strong!

If we say that the Thousand Machines Refinement is at the very bottom of the rankings, then...

Caiyunxian is among the top three!

This ranking is probably as unreliable as the seawater of Beixuan.

But those two guys ahead of Caiyunxian...

But they all have solid achievements!

In particular, the leader of the Five Domains who opened the gate to heaven with a single sword, at the very beginning of the Yin Extreme Heaven Realm, dared to cross the border and kill the rebellious senior sister of Wuli Mountain, who was known as the "first person to become an immortal in later generations".

Such an astonishing and unconventional event.

It can be said that there is no one before and no one after!

'What is this kid trying to do...?'

The Supreme Sage also noticed Gu Yi, who wanted to be the "first bird to stick his neck out." Although he and the Ancestor of the Underworld had sensed a hint of immortality in Gu Yi early on, they did not think highly of this young man whose cultivation had only reached the third realm.

"meet again."

Mo Xinren greeted Gu Yi with a smile, showing no hostility whatsoever, as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time. "Is your wife not here?"

This kid actually knows the desert bandits?!

Seeing this situation, everyone was deeply moved.

Anyone with eyes could see that the person on the front lines of the enemy camp, despite having slightly lower cultivation, was highly respected by the surrounding desert bandits.

He is undoubtedly a leader!

the most important is.

The three mysterious powerful figures, suspected to be from the Great Wilderness Clan, seemed to be waiting for his orders, almost obedient, and completely following his commands!
