Dragon Tiger Mountain has already completely isolated itself, but the Dragon Tiger Mountain Heavenly Master Tao still has branch Taoist Temples throughout the world.

These Taoist Temples, along with those other sects, should swear their loyalty to the new leader of the Taoist school.

"Using the invitation as a screening tool, whoever receives the invitation but refuses to come, they all are enemies of our Zhenwu Sect."

The plain tone, however, revealed words filled with hidden bloodshed. Qing Yu's enemies never had a good end.

To enemies, Qing Yu never spared any means or schemes. The fate of those sects unwilling to come was self-evident.

"Yes, Sect Leader." Xuanfeng responded loudly.

Since the day Qing Yu returned victorious, Xuanfeng had anticipated this day would come. When he heard Qing Yu give the order, he was so excited that his whole body trembled.

Because this heralded the coming of a glorious era for the Zhenwu Sect.

For someone like Xuanfeng, who lived his whole life for the Zhenwu Sect, this would be an extremely glorious moment, where the Zhenwu Sect would truly rise.

"Go ahead."

Qing Yu waved his hand for Xuanfeng to withdraw.

Xuanfeng was a competent subordinate who would handle things properly because Qing Yu was the Sect Leader of Zhenwu Sect.

Although Xuanfeng, whether in age or seniority, was above Qing Yu, it was ultimately the young Qing Yu who reigned over him.

This was not because of Qing Yu's overwhelming strength but due to differing approaches and magnanimity. In Xuanfeng's eyes, there was only the Zhenwu Sect, so he obeyed Qing Yu, who stood at the pinnacle of Zhenwu Sect's power and strength.

Thus, even after two years of leading the Zhenwu Sect, Qing Yu couldn't muster any respect for this elder. Ultimately, their value perceptions were too vastly different.

After letting Xuanfeng leave, Qing Yu took out the Xuantian Jade Pendant from his robe, which was now shimmering and glowing. This signaled the convening of the Nine Heavens meeting.

"Finally decided to convene the meeting, have you, Elder Shiming?" Qing Yu wore a subtle, ungraspable smile.

Four days had passed since Dragon Tiger Mountain had closed its doors to the world, and Elder Shiming should have thought about how to deal with Qing Yu.

The event at Dragon Tiger Mountain was so significant that it couldn't escape the information-savvy Elder Shiming. By right, on the day the incident happened, Elder Shiming should have convened the Nine Heavens members for a meeting.

But until today, he hadn't issued the call because he didn't know how to handle it. He was hesitating, uneasy.

However, what should come will eventually come; Elder Shiming must have made up his mind by now.

With a single thought, Qing Yu's Primordial Spirit Projection, guided by the array within the jade pendant, entered between the Heavenly Vault.

At the same time, Ren Piaomiao, who had returned to Northern Zhou, also used the Cangtian Jade Pendant to enter between the Heavenly Vault, making his first appearance.

The two projections belonging to Qing Yu entered between the Heavenly Vault simultaneously. With the transition of vision, it suddenly became a scene of white immensity.

"Congratulations, Xuantian."

As soon as he entered between the Heavenly Vault, he heard Elder Shiming's congratulatory voice. His eyes calmly watched Qing Yu, the plain expression revealing no hint of joy or anger.

"It's a trivial matter, nothing worth mentioning," Qing Yu said, removing the veil that always obscured his face, revealing his true appearance.

Qing Yu was already mentally prepared for Elder Shiming's exposure. This old fox wouldn't allow Qing Yu to continue hiding his identity and acting in secret. Revealing his identity within the Nine Heavens was inevitable.

However, Qing Yu hadn't expected Elder Shiming's hostility towards him to be so obvious, unmasking him without inquiry.

'It seems my previous actions have completely aroused his suspicion,' Qing Yu thought inwardly.

Previously, when Northern Zhou attacked the grassland, Elder Shiming wanted Qing Yu to stop it. But Qing Yu directly refused and then went incognito to the grassland to kill the Golden Wolf Khan.

Now that the identity of the mysterious supreme warrior who killed the Golden Wolf Khan was revealed, how could Elder Shiming not suspect Qing Yu?

As Qing Yu revealed his true face, everyone present let their Qi mechanisms fluctuate, unable to conceal their surprise.

The other members hadn't expected that the new sixth on the Heavenly List would also be a member of Nine Heavens, prompting a natural feeling of astonishment.

Yet some thoughtful ones pondered further—True Martial Sect Leader succeeded not long after Xuantian joined, which seemed quite natural.

No matter what thoughts were harbored in their hearts, upon seeing the White-haired Taoist reveal his true face, all Divinity Realm members offered their respect.

"Everyone, we should welcome the newly joined Cangtian Palace Lord Ren," Qing Yu lightly tapped the treasure seat, reminding them.

The focus of this meeting was also to introduce the newcomer Cangtian. After all, as himself, Qing Yu would not overshadow the guest.

Upon hearing Qing Yu's words, everyone turned their gaze towards the unfamiliar figure present here for the first time. Of course, due to everyone's power, even if they hadn't seen Ren Piaomiao's true appearance, he wouldn't be unfamiliar to them.

Ren Piaomiao, the new Cangtian, lacked the sharp aura of a swordsman, his flowing black hair displaying the grace and elegance of a literati, his expression slightly cold but not showing any aloofness.

"The new Cangtian, Ren Piaomiao, has slain the Divine Captor Ning Wuming from the Six Gates, as well as the Great Shaman from the Shamanism on the Grassland; his strength is considered at the top tier below the Supreme," Elder Shiming introduced.

"Everyone, my respects," Ren Piaomiao nodded gently.

"Cangtian's demeanor doesn't match the information I had; I thought he was a cold swordsman." Zhu Tianjiao laughed.

"Heh, Zhu Tian, you wouldn't want to witness Cangtian's Sword Qi when he holds a sword." Hao Tian replied.

Apparently, this one might have seen Ren Piaomiao wield his sword and knew the contrast before and after holding it.

"Then let there be a chance to witness it for myself." Zhu Tian seemed unconvinced, her voice soft and gentle.

"Alright, let's discuss the next issue now," Elder Shiming said again, "Four days ago, when Nalanda Temple attacked the Great Zen Temple, Xuantian had a hand in it, didn't you?"

Though it was phrased as a question, Elder Shiming spoke with certainty. To this, Qing Yu did not evade, saying, "This humble Daoist merely provided a bit of small information."

The tone was mild, yet it stirred some ripples in everyone's hearts.

"This so-called small information almost led to the downfall of the Great Zen Temple." Shengde Emperor interjected.

If not for the Sumeru Base remaining within the Great Zen Temple, the final Grand Hall might have been destroyed by Nalanda Temple's hand.

Moreover, while inducing Nalanda Temple to attack the Great Zen Temple, Qing Yu also personally drove Dragon Tiger Mountain into the abyss. If not for Heavenly Master Zhang's Soldier Resolution Taoist Transformation sealing off the Secret Realm, this millennia-old Daoist Orthodoxy might have been obliterated.

It could be said that the shocking changes in the Buddha and Taoist two schools were entirely caused by Qing Yu, which is the main reason why all were in awe of Qing Yu.

"Adapting to circumstances and changing with the times, this humble Daoist only made an appropriate choice," Qing Yu remained utterly composed, unflustered.

Aggressive strategists adapt to the situation to turn it to their advantage. Qing Yu merely made an appropriate choice based on the timing, but it was precisely this appropriate choice that led to the shocking changes in the Buddha and Taoist two sects.
