“How about we delay for a moment? Just an hour!” Trapped in the Ancient Secret Realm for ten years, now finally free, Holy Daoist wanted to know how Saint Sky Sect fared.

Logan nodded, not minding in the slightest. After all, unlike them, whose lifespans were coming to an end and who were in a rush, Logan wanted to gain experience in the Immortal Realm, where being early or late by a few days did not matter.

As soon as the two arrived at Saint Sky Sect, they were detected by Aurelius Azure, who immediately appeared at the entrance, respectfully welcoming the Supreme Elder.

“Dispense with the formalities. How has the Sect fared in the ten years of my absence?” Holy Daoist waved his hand and asked while walking up, feeling a sense of familiarity upon returning to his Sect.

“The Sect has been relatively stable over the years, although we encountered an incident with the Blood Drinking Sect. Fortunately, there was no real harm done, thanks to Logan’s decisive action.”

Aurelius Azure explained while glancing at Logan, “How did you two meet? Logan is not only a great benefactor to Saint Sky Sect but also to the entire Central Region.”

“Inside the Ancient Secret Realm, it was thanks to Logan’s intelligence that I managed to escape. Moreover, I was fortunate enough to obtain that inheritance!”

Holy Daoist nodded, looking at Logan with added gratitude, “Logan had already briefed me about the happenings in the Central Region regarding the Ancient Secret Realm, but at that time, I didn’t quite believe it. I thought that even if Logan had intervened, he could not have contributed much.”

“Now hearing you speak so highly of him, I understand that not a word Logan said was false, and he probably even downplayed his role. As a Supreme Elder, I owe Logan a debt of gratitude, and you younger generations should also remember Logan.”

Holy Daoist was quite moved, not only because Logan had helped him in the Ancient Secret Realm but also because he had saved Saint Sky Sect. The debt of gratitude was immense, greater than that of being saved from death, so much so that Holy Daoist himself was unsure how to repay it.

“Supreme Elder, according to our Sect’s spies, a number of Strong Ones appeared in various places today, all above the level of Quasi-Saints. They must be from the Holy See. Did they also come from the Ancient Secret Realm? If not, it’s a great danger, and we need to immediately send more people to investigate,” said Aurelius Azure as they reached the hall.

After formally bowing to Holy Daoist, Aurelius Azure had the tea served and began to inquire about serious matters.

Holy Daoist waved his hand, urging Aurelius Azure not to be nervous, “Indeed, those from the Holy See who were trapped in the Ancient Secret Realm have now escaped. They seek materials that can extend their lifespans. For the time being, they are not enemies, but that might change in the future.”

“So, if they need help, Saint Sky Sect can lend a hand, but it cannot violate our principles, and we must not trust them too deeply. Logan and I are just taking a brief respite to revisit Saint Sky Sect; we still have to rush to the Eastern Sea. Remember to manage Saint Sky Sect well.”

After giving his advice, Holy Daoist stood up. However, upon hearing this, Aurelius Azure was shocked; he had a guess about what the Supreme Elder was planning next.

“Elder, are you planning a journey to the Immortal Realm? Do not forget the last time was a narrow escape that left you injured and convalescing for decades. The Strong Ones there are too terrifying, and you’ve only just escaped the Ancient Secret Realm. Saint Sky Sect cannot do without you!”

Aurelius Azure attempted to dissuade him vehemently. Now a Quasi-Saint at Great Perfection and one step away from being a Holy See, he needed ample time for breakthroughs. He had hoped to rest easy with the Supreme Elder’s return, only to find the elder planned to leave again.

With a wry smile, Holy Daoist replied helplessly, “I wish I didn’t have to, but even though I’ve obtained the inheritance, I haven’t solved the problem of my lifespan. I must make a trip to the Immortal Realm!”

“Furthermore, I’ve stumbled upon an opportunity. Today, I alone cannot stand against several dozen Holy Sees. If I do not strengthen my power, I won’t be able to defend this inheritance, which is of great importance to Saint Sky Sect. If I succeed, Saint Sky Sect will flourish forever.”

“It is difficult for a Quasi-Saint to break through to Holy See, but if I return safely, I will definitely assist you. The Book of Legacy from the Saint Emperor contains records of this. In any case, for now, you should focus on managing Saint Sky Sect well.”

Aurelius Azure understood completely and nodded at once, “I thought the matter of lifespan had been resolved, but it seems I was too optimistic. I will ensure no chaos arises in Saint Sky Sect!”

Saint Sky Sect, as the leading sect of Central Region, relied entirely on the prestige of the Supreme Elder. Without a Holy See to preside, it could not suppress the restless sects.

The Central Region had recently experienced turmoil, and Saint Sky Sect had intervened to resolve the Blood Drinking Sect incident. Their authority had greatly expanded at that moment, and no sect dared to challenge Saint Sky Sect. But now, with dozens of new Holy Sees appearing and belonging to other sects,

if Saint Sky Sect lacked presence other than his being a lone Quasi-Saint, it would be unfeasible, so everything had to prioritize the affairs of the Supreme Elder.

Logan stretched and spoke, “No need to lay it on so thick. Going to the Immortal Realm isn’t like venturing into the gates of Hell. I’ll be back in a few days!”

Holy Daoist did not argue, for Logan had never been to the Immortal Realm and was unaware of its dangers and horror; even Holy Sees found it nightmarish.

“In my absence, you’ve managed Saint Sky Sect well, proving to be a competent Sect Leader. These many years of solitary devotion have indeed been hard on you!”
