Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

After meeting, Meng Zhang took the initiative to greet each other on equal terms.

"Greetings, Saintess."

Before coming here, Gu Yue Huaidie had introduced Meng Zhang to the Saintess of the Yellow Lotus Sect. The Yellow Lotus Sect has always had a Saintess position, and the most outstanding female disciples in the sect serve in this role. The Saintess holds a high and influential position within the Yellow Lotus Sect, with special heritage and status. Apart from the Yellow Lotus Sect Cult Master, she hardly needs to obey anyone else's orders.

Throughout history, the Yellow Lotus Sect's Saintesses have been mysterious, acting covertly, and rarely appearing in the outside world. Gu Yue Huaidie and the current Saintess of the Yellow Lotus Sect had developed a relationship due to a fortuitous encounter in the past.

According to Gu Yue Huaidie, this generation's Saintess of the Yellow Lotus Sect possesses profound cultivation, remarkable skills, keen insight into people, and an unconventional style of action, often doing the unexpected.

Upon seeing the Saintess for the first time, Meng Zhang instinctively used his "Deception Breaking Eye" technique, hoping to see through the veil and reveal her true appearance. However, that veil seemed to be made of some extraordinary treasure, preventing even the "Deception Breaking Eye" from seeing through it. As for using Divine Sense to probe, it would be too obvious and impolite.

As a Gold Core stage cultivator, Meng Zhang was considered a rare expert among Gold Core cultivators due to his keen vision and broad experience. Nevertheless, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't discern the woman's cultivation base.

Meng Zhang could only be certain that she was not at the Primordial Spirit stage but most likely a Gold Core cultivator. Gu Yue Family possessed powerful intelligence and knew many undisclosed secrets within the Cultivation World.

Rumors had it that the Yellow Lotus Sect's Saintess carried a treasured heirloom of the sect, an item with the power to escape even when facing a Primordial Spirit True Monarch. With her profound and mysterious cultivation base and the possession of this treasure, Meng Zhang couldn't help but hold her in high regard.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to greet her, as there was no tradition of respecting women in the Cultivation World.

"Sect Master Meng is too polite; it should be this young woman who pays respects to Sect Master Meng." The Saintess returned a greeting to Meng Zhang.

After speaking, the Saintess looked at Meng Zhang without uttering another word, sinking into silence. It was unclear whether she was not good at conversation or simply disdained formalities and small talk. Meng Zhang, too, remained silent, speculating inwardly.

Although he knew that he could hardly probe into her thoughts, Meng Zhang couldn't resist the temptation and instinctively activated his innate Divine Ability, "Mind Reading," attempting to sense her intentions. However, not long after Meng Zhang took action, the Saintess looked at him meaningfully, causing him to feel a bit uneasy.

At this moment, the Saintess spoke again.

"In the Cultivation World, there are many secret arts capable of peering into people's hearts. However, Sect Master Meng's Divine Ability is quite rare. If I am not mistaken, it must be the legendary Mind Reading," she said.

Meng Zhang had obtained this innate Divine Ability from the Trial Ground 100-200 years ago when he was still a mere Refining Qi stage cultivator.

Over the years, he has used this Divine Ability countless times. Although he can't claim that it has always been successful, he has never been exposed before now.

Being seen through by the other party face-to-face, Meng Zhang felt a bit embarrassed but also amazed by the other's abilities. After the Saintess made her point, she didn't say much more.

Meng Zhang originally wanted to explain a few words, but in the end, he gave up, lest he make a fool of himself.

"Many uninformed people may see Sect Master Meng and Taiyi Sect as followers of Jin Li True Monarch, underestimating Sect Master Meng."

"I have carefully studied Sect Master Meng's experiences and read about many of his deeds. Sect Master Meng is an extraordinary figure and will not always be subordinate to others."

"I can make a bold guess that whoever finally surpasses True Monarch Mountain Peak may not necessarily be Jin Li True Monarch but more likely Sect Master Meng."

The Saintess fell silent for a while, and for some reason, she praised Meng Zhang.

Meng Zhang didn't know if the other person truly believed in him or was deliberately flattering him. Even if he had confidence in himself, he wouldn't dare claim that he could surpass a Primordial Spirit True Monarch at this moment.

Meng Zhang was about to be modest, but he didn't know how to begin. The Saintess continued speaking.

"Neither of us is fond of hypocrisy and formalities, so let's get straight to the point."

"In recent years, my position within the Yellow Lotus Sect has worsened, and I've lost control over many things."

"My master, who is advanced in age, has not been in good condition since suffering serious injuries years ago. Although he recovered from the injuries later, his state has never been good."

"Although my master hasn't explicitly said it, many within the sect know that he doesn't have much time left."

"Losing my master, the only Primordial Spirit True Monarch, would put Main Altar at an absolute disadvantage when facing True Monarch Mountain Peak."

"Though I still hold some cards passed down by senior members of the sect, at best, they can barely ensure my own safety. I'm powerless to continue the fight against him."

"Once True Monarch Mountain Peak consolidates all the sub-altars, the next target will be Main Altar."

"Many within Main Altar have seen this situation clearly. They believe the best option is to stop resisting and let True Monarch Mountain Peak take control of Main Altar."

"Even some propose that I marry into True Monarch Mountain Peak, eliminating any internal conflicts within the Yellow Lotus Sect and returning to unity."

The Saintess calmly described the situation within the Yellow Lotus Sect and her predicament, even mentioning the possibility of her marriage without any change in her tone.

"The outcome of True Monarch Mountain Peak becoming the new Cult Master of the Yellow Lotus Sect and the sect being reunified may seem happy, but I am unwilling to accept it."

"As long as I am alive, Yue Feng can never take control of Main Altar, and he will never become the Cult Master of the Yellow Lotus Sect."

At this point, the Saintess's tone finally changed, becoming resolute and forceful, to the extent that she no longer even referred to Yue Feng as "True Monarch."

From the simple words of the Saintess, Meng Zhang sensed her firm determination to resist True Monarch Mountain Peak.

He didn't care about any grudges between them or why the Saintess held such hostility towards True Monarch Mountain Peak. All he needed to know was whether the Saintess could be of help when facing True Monarch Mountain Peak.

Of course, Meng Zhang wouldn't easily trust this Saintess of the Yellow Lotus Sect. Under precautionary measures, he didn't mind cooperating with her. Since the Saintess seemed sincere, Meng Zhang wouldn't miss this opportunity.

Meng Zhang already knew that Taiyi Sect and True Monarch Mountain Peak could never become friends. Sooner or later, they would clash again.

Whether it was the enmity of disciples dying in battle or conflicts of interest, Meng Zhang would not let True Monarch Mountain Peak go.
