Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill

Liu Ruyan gently smoothed Li Yunjing’s slightly furrowed brow and whispered, "Be careful in the future."

After speaking, she suddenly stood on tiptoe, kissed him lightly on the lips, and turned to lead the two little girls aside, watching him, waiting for him to board the ship.

Li Yunjing nodded and then turned to board the battleship.

As the "Shenxiao Battleship" slowly rose, the spiritual patterns on the deck shone brightly, turning into a stream of light that pierced the sky.

Li Yunjing stood at the bow, watching the figures of Liu Ruyan and the two girls below gradually shrink until they completely disappeared over the horizon before he withdrew his gaze.

Half a month later, the "Shenxiao Battleship" arrived at "Red Sun Valley," letting Fang Yuxuan and the others disembark.

Their families were still guarding the mines, so they naturally went to see their families before attending Li Yunjing’s wedding.

The remaining people followed the "Shenxiao Battleship" to appear over the "Shenxiao Dao Sect."

Within the sect, bells rang loudly, and the disciples looked up, gazing at the battleship full of glory slowly descending.

"Brother Wen, Liao Fairy, you follow Ma Xingyuan to the Welcome Tower to rest; I’ll find you once I’m done!"

Li Yunjing instructed the crowd, "Now that we’re back, have a good rest and go do what you need to do!"

"Yes! Senior Brother!"

Su Guo, Jin Shouyun, and others responded loudly, each showing excitement as they looked at the sect they hadn’t seen in years.

After more than twenty years, everyone had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, and their status in the sect could be greatly improved.

After leaving here, everyone agreed to go to the relevant sect institutions to change their identity information.

"Ancestor, shall we go see the Sect Leader Venerable?"

Once Master of Fiery Fire put away the "Shenxiao Battleship," only he and Li Yunjing remained.

"Well..."

Master of Fiery Fire pondered for a moment, then shook his head, rejecting the proposal, "You go! I’ve been gone for many years, and the Fire Dragon’s corpse is still useful; I need to go into seclusion for a while!"

"Hmm! Alright!"

Li Yunjing nodded and then flew toward "Shenxiao Peak."

He was unaware that Master of Fiery Fire was unwilling to venture into the East Sea again.

If he went with Li Yunjing to see the Sect Leader Venerable and was assigned a task, what would he do?

Master of Fiery Fire couldn’t say that seeing "Celestial Net Dao Sect" charging relentlessly, he was afraid to go to the East Sea?

That would be a disgrace!

Not seeing the Sect Leader Venerable became the best way to handle this problem.

Especially since he told Li Yunjing he needed to go into seclusion for a while, which completely eliminated any risks.

Li Yunjing stepped on a stream of light, landing atop Shenxiao Peak in an instant.

In front of the majestic Golden Summit Hall, the vivid carvings of legendary beasts on the cloud-patterned steps shimmered with life, and the seals on both sides of the hall door glowed azure.

Every time he came, Li Yunjing could feel the supreme authority of the sect.

The disciples guarding the mountain all saluted, not daring to block his path or inquire.

By this day, Li Yunjing could traverse any part of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" unimpeded.

In the awe of the gathered disciples, Li Yunjing arrived at the main hall.

He nodded in greeting to the two Golden Core Realm cultivators guarding the gate.

"Disciple Li Yunjing requests an audience with the Sect Leader Venerable."

Li Yunjing adjusted his robes and said loudly.

"Enter."

A steady voice like a bell echoed from within the hall.

Pushing open the hall doors, Ming Lingchuan stood with his hands behind his back atop the Jade Tier, the Nine Heaven cloud patterns darkly embroidered on his black Daoist robe glimmering subtly with his movements.

When he turned around, his gaze like lightning swept over Li Yunjing, making his spiritual power tremble slightly.

"In less than a year, your aura has become increasingly stable."

Ming Lingchuan nodded slightly, "I heard you’ve caused quite a stir in the East Sea?"

Li Yunjing nodded, presenting a prepared Jade Scroll to Ming Lingchuan.

"Reporting to Sect Leader, this journey to the East Sea involved communicating with various forces; ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ is invading everywhere, and the situation in the East Sea is now blazing out of control."

He paused and continued, "Now all forces are ready to move, and ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ also intends to expand eastward. I boldly propose re-establishing the ’East Sea Alliance.’

Ming Lingchuan looked at the Jade Scroll and listened to Li Yunjing’s introduction, suddenly chuckling.

"You are quite bold, daring to plan an alliance. Tell me, on what grounds will you make all forces bow?"

Ming Lingchuan added, "The sect’s main forces can’t go; the situation on the front can change at any moment!"

"Disciple understands!"

Li Yunjing replied with a smile, "I believe that with the prestige of ’Shenxiao Dao Sect,’ we can leverage local forces to form an alliance and resist."

"We don’t expect the East Sea forces to defeat ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ but just to hold them off!"

Li Yunjing continued, "Let them fight for decades, even hundreds of years; once we’ve regained our strength, we can naturally clean up the aftermath."

Ming Lingchuan’s gaze fell on Li Yunjing, his expression shifting slightly.

Moments later, he paced to the window, looking out at the distant range of mountains, and slowly said, "If the East Sea Alliance forms, it can indeed counterbalance ’Celestial Net Dao Sect,’ but it will also bring many problems. Are you aware of the risks involved?"

"Disciple understands!"

Li Yunjing straightened his back, his eyes burning with fervor, "We need to deploy experts and enormous resources to assist the East Sea Alliance!"

"But in my view, this assistance is worthwhile!"

"Using others’ lives to consume ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’s’ strength, over time, what fear is there of ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ invading our Great Ming Cultivation Realm?"

Finally, Li Yunjing stated.

After listening to Li Yunjing’s decision, Ming Lingchuan was silent for a long time. Suddenly, he turned and said, "Three days from now, I will convene a sect senior meeting. You’ll recount your plan in front of all the Supreme Elders."

His gaze was so tangible it seemed to land on Li Yunjing, "If you can convince them, the East Sea Alliance... will be led by you."

Hearing Ming Lingchuan’s words, Li Yunjing’s heart trembled.
