Chapter 480: Yun Shan’s Arras! The Sed Heavenly Elder, Blood River!

  "Liu Ling greets Aor Yun Shan!"

  Since Yun Shan was his master's wife’s teacher, Liu Ling naturally had to be respectful. Thus, he spoke to Yun Shan with utmost reverence.

  "Haha, there’s no need for sualities... Hm? You’ve actually broken through to a Five-Star Dou King!"

  After Liu Ling greeted him, Yun Shan initially smiled kindly, but in the instant, his expression turned into one of shock.

  The st time he had seen Liu Ling was during Gu He’s wedding. Yet, in just over a year, Liu Ling had advanced from the Dou King realm to his current level.

  Such cultivation speed was simply astonishing, leaving Yun Shan momentarily speechless.

  "Master Aor, I have indeed reached the Five-Star Dou King level, but it was merely due to a stroke of luck," Liu Ling admitted humbly, nodding in aowledgment of his breakthrough.

  At this moment, Yun Shan recalled the terrifying strength of Xiao Yi Xian a somewhat relieved. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, Gu He truly has great fortune. Every disciple he takes in turns out to be a prodigy!

  ...

  "Heh, you’re being too modest. Young people with talent and strength shouldn’t be afraid to show it." Yun Shan chuckled before pointing toward the dire of Nine-Colored Valley. He then asked again, "Liu Ling, that disturbance earlier—was it caused by your master refining a seventh-grade pill, triggering Dan Thunder?"

  Liu Ling was briefly stunned by the question but then slowly nodded and responded, "Yes, that Dan Thunder was indeed caused by my master refining a seventh-grade pill. However, my master has alreferred to keep a low profile and doesn’t want to make a big fuss about it."

  "That won’t do at all!"

  Hearing Liu Ling’s st sentence, Yun Shan shook his head vigorously and spoke urgently, "Being a seventh-grade alchemist is an immense honor. It absolutely ot be kept secret! I must have Yanran bring the sect members to spread the news far and wide, and we must host a grand bao celebrate!"

  Listening to Yun Shan’s pns, Liu Ling could only smile bitterly in his heart. With Master Aor being this enthusiastic, it seems Master won’t be able to avoid attending the ba after all!

  However, the moment Liu Ling realized he had once again answered Yun Shan’s question under Gu He’s name, a trace of nervousness crept into his mind.

  "Ahem, ahem!"

  Liu Ling coughed lightly before speaking slowly, "Master Aor, my master may not be able to attend the ba in the near future!"

  "Why not?" Yun Shan asked.

  "Because Master has already entered seclusion to break through to the stage. He does not wish to be disturbed by anyone! And I must also remain by his side to guard him, so I won’t be able to attend the ba either."

  "A secluded breakthrough to the stage?"

  Liu Ling had deliberately spoken in a vague manner, allowing Yun Shan to interpret it on his own.

  A moment ter, Yun Shan’s expression turned serious as he said, "Very well. Since Gu He is in seclusion, we won’t disturb him. However, the ba must still be held! I will first gather the guests to celebrate Gu He being a seventh-grade alchemist. Then, once he successfully breaks through to the stage, it will be a double celebration, and we shall hold anrand ba, inviting the powerful figures from all around to celebrate together!"

  After hearing Yun Shan’s pn, Liu Ling could no lue. He could only nod and agree, saying, "Since you have already made the arras, we will follow your deaster Aor. However, at present, Junior Sister Yanran does not seem to be in the sect."

  "Yanran isn’t here... well, that’s not an issue. Yun Leng has always been reliable in handling such matters. I’ll have him take care of the invitations," Yun Shan said casually.

  "Uood. In that case, I shall take my leave aurn to guard my master’s seclusion," Liu Ling said before once again bowing respectfully to Yun Shan.

  "Alright, go on, go on!" Yun Shan waved his hand with a broad smile.

  After Liu Li, Yun Shan sensed several figures rapidly approag from a distance. Remembering that Gu He was in seclusion and could not be disturbed, he swiftly moved toward the ining figures.

  …

  "That’s the old sect master’s aura!"

  "Greetings, Old Sect Master!"

  "Greetings, Old Sect Master!"

  As Yun Shan approached, Yun Leng and the other elders of the Yu immediately bowed respectfully to greet him.

  "Yun Leng, I have something for you to take care of… Prepare frand ba in half a month to celebrate Elder Gu He’s breakthrough to a seventh-grade alchemist. Ihe major powers to attend. I’m leaving this matter in your hands.

  Additionally, that area over there is Elder Gu He’s pce of seclusion. It must be strictly sealed off—no elders or disciples are allowed to approader any circumstances. Anyone who disobeys will be punished acc to sect rules!"

  "Uood, Old Sect Master. I will ehat the ba in half a month is prepared with the utmost care!"

  Upon hearing Yun Shan firm that Gu He had truly broken through to a seventh-grade alchemist, Yun Leng was overwhelmed with excitement and immediately accepted the task.

  This ba would be the perfect opportunity to annouo the world that the Yu now had a seventh-grade alchemist in its ranks. Their reputation would soar, and iure, tless major fas would pete to send their most talented young members to join the sect. With such a development, Yu’s strength would groidly, and the elders' status would rise immeasurably.

  At that point, even the imperial family of the Jia Ma Empire would have to show them the utmost respect.

  As for the iial noble families of the empire? They would undoubtedly go to great lengths to curry favor with the Yu.

  …

  Time passed quickly, and in the blink of awenty days had gone by.

  During this period, Gu He’s main body had been focused on refining the cultivation energy returned by Nan Yanran, Han Yue, and Han Xue. With this alone, he had successfully pleted the final transformation of the urn Dou Vee stage, reag its peak.

  The peak of urn Dou Vee—just oep away from attempting a breakthrough into the Half-Saint realm.

  inally, Gu He had po immediately take the Bodhi Pill and, with the vast energy returned by Xiao Yi Xian, attempt to break through to the Half-Saint stage.

  However, just over ten days ago, Blood Heavenly Elder had sent word that he had made tact with the Fourth Heavenly Elder of the Soul Hall, Blood River, and had already devised a pn to lure him to the Northern Region.

  Because of this, Gu He decided to temporarily put his Half-Saint breakthrough on hold. He inteo use his uping battle with Blood River to further familiarize himself with his current strength, which would greatly be his future progression.

  With his deade, Gu He informed Yun Yun, Xiao Yi Xian, and the others about his departure, assuring them that he would return within five days.
