Enter the Internal Fraction

On this day, a wave surged through the Eternal Sect— someone had directly broken through Spirit Awakening from Body Forging!

Ye Xiaowei gained some reputation among the internal and outside faction disciples due to Jade.

It was well known that he was just an ordinary mortal, incapable of practicing cultivation.

His progress so far was solely reliant on talismans.

However, the astonishing sword move left a vivid impression on everyone.

The brilliant sword light even made them feel a bit dizzy, questioning if they were seeing things correctly.

Many had these thoughts in their hearts, but to see was to believe.

Some even rubbed their eyes vigorously afterward, thinking it was an impossible feat, unable to believe it.

It wasn't their fault; defeating opponents across realms was something only geniuses could achieve.

Moreover, Qin Rendi was a strong practitioner in Air Treading.

Even with suppressed cultivation, he should still be much stronger than an ordinary Spirit Awakening cultivator.

The Peak Master of Tianxuan Peak couldn't help but furrow his brows, sensing that this matter was far from ordinary.

Chen Dao smiled bitterly.

He was often praised for having a discerning eye because he brought many talents to Tianxuan Peak.

However, witnessing this sword move, he realized he had truly misjudged.

What an astonishing sword! What an extraordinary Ye Xiaowei!

Some female disciples from Goddess Peak couldn't help but exclaim, gazing at him with infatuation.

This little junior brother had some interesting qualities.

Amidst the astonishment of everyone, Ye Xiaowei didn't make any commotion, nor did he display the arrogance of a victor.

He quietly walked towards where the disciples from Goddess Peak were.

Neither arrogant nor impatient, he remained as calm as water.

The middle-aged man who had a wine jug tied around his waist took off the jug, drank a big gulp, and said, "Good wine!"

"Good sword! It's a pity he's not a good man. He insists on joining Goddess Peak!"

The middle-aged man's voice sounded resentful and complaining.

The Peak Master of Tianxuan Peak shook his head with a bitter smile.

Drunk Sword Immortal clearly felt sour about something, unable to appreciate the good things.

At the same time, the Peak Master felt a bit bitter, realizing that he had also misjudged.

Jade, standing behind the Tianxuan Peak Master, was displeased.

With a snort, she wiped away the tears on her face, placed her hands on her hips, and angrily exclaimed, "Why do you, this wine enthusiast, dare to speak ill of my young lord!"

This remark immediately drew two different sets of eyes towards her, each carrying a different meaning.

…

"Thank you for the precious sword, Senior Sister."

Ye Xiaowei offered the sword with both hands with a faint smile on his face.

The woman took it casually, and her smile became even more obvious.

This little junior brother was not only good-looking but also incredibly strong.

The Peak Master of Goddess Peak also had a significant change in her eyes when she looked at Ye Xiaowei.

This young man brought her some irrational impact.

Now, Ye Xiaowei's aura became extremely weak, as if he could collapse at any moment, appearing frail and powerless.

It was hard to imagine that he could unleash such a sword just now.

Although Zhao Shisan was stunned for a moment, she quickly regained her composure.

"Yes, indeed. The person worthy of that sword naturally has extraordinary insights in the sword technique."

In a trance, Zhao Shisan felt like she saw a familiar person when that sword appeared—the person who was extraordinary and respected by everyone!

Today marked the outside faction disciples' leap forward, even an opportunity for some internal faction disciples to showcase their strength.

This grand event wouldn't end just because of Ye Xiaowei's one sword; it continued.

However, with Ye Xiaowei's previous sword, many talents' displays seemed somewhat pale and feeble, overshadowed by the brilliant sword light.

After staying for another hour, the the disciples of the Goddess Peak left.

When they departed, they were filled with pride.

First, they had an extraordinary talent, Zhao Shisan, and now they had a junior brother who had broken through from Body Forging to Spirit Awakening.

How could they not be confident and elated?

On this day, Ye Xiaowei officially entered Goddess Peak, stunning Eternal Sect with a single sword.

Zhao Shisan accompanied Ye Xiaowei to retrieve his belongings from Sky-Watching Peak.

When she saw only a dilapidated bamboo chair, her feelings became mixed, and she couldn't quite understand what was on his mind.

"He really is an inscrutable person."

Thinking about Ye Xiaowei's actions on Sword Peak, Zhao Shisan’s feelings were also complex.

She didn't know how to evaluate the beautiful man in front of her.

During the journey, Zhao Shisan briefly explained some of the rules on Goddess Peak to Ye Xiaowei.

Zhao Shisan was carefree, and her words were equally straightforward.

" See no evil, hear no evil."

Hearing this, Ye Xiaowei could only smile bitterly.

When he joined Goddess Peak, it wasn't for the myriad beauties.

"Do not act recklessly and do not break the rules."

With these concise words, Ye Xiaowei could only nod in agreement.

He liked this kind of introduction.

If all the cumbersome rules were spelled out, his head would ache.

After entering Goddess Peak, Zhao Shisan arranged Ye Xiaowei in a separate courtyard and left after a few instructions.

Ye Xiaowei moved the bamboo chair into the courtyard and laid down comfortably, closing his eyes to rest.

The well, originally just a puddle of water, had been cleaned out completely by his sword.

Despite the long time that passed, it had only recovered a little.

But being able to enter Goddess Peak and gain the attention of the Peak Master made it all worthwhile!

Ye Xiaowei didn't think too much about it.

He scooped up the little remaining water and poured it on the withered tree.

Suddenly, a heavy feeling overcame him.

Feeling fatigued, Ye Xiaowei directly fell into a deep sleep.

When Ye Xiaowei woke up again, it was already evening.

The crescent moon hung in the sky like a curved blade.

Standing in front of him was an old woman.

However, she was no ordinary old woman.

Ye Xiaowei immediately jumped up, bowed respectfully, and said, "Peak Master, I’m sorry that I’m not unaware of your coming."

The visitor was none other than the Peak Master of Goddess Peak.

She stood there, her expression calm, carefully examining the young man in front of her.

It was unclear how long she had been standing there, silent and motionless.

"No need for apologies," the Peak Master waved her hand.

After Ye Xiaowei bowed, he stood there without appearing overly surprised or arrogant.

All that could be seen was his calm demeanor as if everything was just an ordinary matter.

Any one of the eighteen Peak Masters of the Eternal Sect was like a divine being, and personally visiting someone was a great opportunity for ordinary people.

Moreover, Goddess Peak was relatively prominent among the eighteen peaks, and the Peak Master, with Zhao Shisan as her disciple, had a more formidable reputation than before.

She was an esteemed figure in the Eternal Sect.

The Peak Master scrutinized the young man before her.

Yet, from the young man's eyes, she sensed a feeling reminiscent of an elderly person in the twilight of life.

At the age of sixteen, how mature can one's mind become?

To achieve a state of not being humble or arrogant is already quite rare.

However, this calmness is intriguing.

"Your sword today was truly splendid. I heard even the Drunk Sword Immortal was moved by it. If you regret it, I can still let you leave," Yun Mu said.

These words surprised Ye Xiaowei.

"Is the Peak Master asking me to leave?"

Although Ye Xiaowei's heart was somewhat stirred, his tone remained calm.

The Peak Master shook her head and said, "Our Goddess Peak's ultimate technique is the Goddess Mind Art. How could a young man like you master it? However, that sword of yours makes me feel that joining the Drunk Sword Immortal might be the most suitable for you."

"What if I insist on joining Goddess Peak?"

Ye Xiaowei's tone sounded resolute.

In Ye Xiaowei's heart, he was well aware of how extraordinary the Drunk Sword Immortal's swordsmanship was, even receiving praise from Li Daocheng.

But so what?

That was not what he desired.

"Could it be that you've taken a fancy to the many beautiful senior sisters?"

The Peak Master's smile suddenly changed.

The young man shook his head heavily.

Wasn't this a joke?

"In that case, I am curious. Why did you join my Yun Mu's sect? You should come clean about your true purpose!"

The Peak Master suddenly rebuked.

In Yun Mu's eyes, a brilliant light shone, and her imposing manner was overwhelming.

Under this pressure, Ye Xiaowei couldn't help but feel suppressed and uncomfortable.

"I am here to cultivate another, more powerful method."

Ye Xiaowei remained calm, but due to the pressure, his voice became somewhat deep.

Although Ye Xiaowei did not reveal the name of that method, Yun Mu understood what he was referring to.

"You have great ambition!"

Yun Mu said, her expression becoming serious.

Ye Xiaowei still maintained a calm demeanor as if nothing could move him.

"I really want to know who is guiding you from behind," Yun Mu said very calmly.

It could be said that the calm and composed demeanor Ye Xiaowei had displayed since their first meeting was abnormal.

Without someone guiding him from behind, it would be impossible for him to reach this point.

Thinking about the changes in Ye Xiaowei over the past few days, the contrast was stark.

"If I say it's because of Li Daocheng. Do you believe it?"

Ye Xiaowei suddenly smiled with a hint of bitterness.

As soon as this statement came out, Yun Mu stood frozen in place like being struck by lightning.

Li Daocheng was her junior brother, the youngest and most dazzling figure among their generation!

Thinking carefully, there were only a few people who knew about that particular method.

"I'll make an exception to accept you into the internal fraction, but whether you can cultivate that technique depends on whether your aptitude is sufficient."

After a long time, Yun Mu finally sighed as if lamenting or reminiscing about something.

Or perhaps, it was nostalgia for the young man in azure clothes who once wielded a sword, standing proudly on Lianbi Mountain, full of vigor and unparalleled splendor!
