How Can He Be Late For Such an Important Ceremony

“Bong…”

The melodious sound of the bell drifted in the distance and startled countless birds.

The mountain range was endless, and one of the peaks stood out the most. It stood among the clouds and was surrounded by immortal mist. The Sun shone on the peak, shining with a supreme purple light. It was as if the good fortune was here. It was mighty and intimidating.

At this moment, Han Yue and the others were standing at the highest point of the spiritual mountain. She was at the head of the group, like a myriad of stars surrounding the Moon. The clouds and smoke were faint, which made her face even more otherworldly, like a celestial being. She made people feel awe.

Even the others were overjoyed when they saw the beautiful scene in front of them. The sea of clouds churned. The fog surged like a whale swallowing its prey, and the spiritual energy here was extremely pure.

“The gods are blessing our Tai Qing Sect,” the third elder complimented, “They bestow the auspicious signs at our grand ceremony.”

Even Han Yue, who had always been cold, could not help but smile slightly when she heard this, “Thank you, third elder, for your kind words.”

She looked around and realized that someone was missing.

“Why is Elder Ye not here yet?”

Everyone’s expressions changed. The fourth elder frowned and immediately launched an attack, “What’s wrong with Elder Ye? How can he be late for such an important occasion? Isn’t he looking down on the sect master too much?”

The fifth elder said hypocritically, “Perhaps something happened on the way and he was delayed.”

Xie Yixuan added calmly, “No matter how important the matter is, can it be more important than the sect opening ceremony? He’s making all of us to wait for him.”

“This Elder Ye, we had not been seeing him before this. We don’t know where he was hiding and slacking off. And now, he is doing such a thing. He is really too arrogant.”

Hearing the words of the elders, the disciples were in an uproar and kept whispering to each other.

Seeing that everyone was complaining, Han Yue had no choice, “Then, let’s begin.”

A smile flashed in the elders’ eyes. To be late for such a big event, Ye Xuan could play himself to death almost without them doing anything.

“Do you think he’s worried that his gift isn’t good enough, so he deliberately didn’t show his face?”

“I think it’s very possible. At least he knows his place. Being scolded by the sect master is better than losing face in public.”

There were several processes on the sect opening ceremony. Other than opening the mountain and paying respects to the sect master, the most important part was that the sect master would return the gifts of similar value to the elders’ gifts.

From this point, one could tell the strength of these elders’ family backgrounds.

“Great elder has gifted a ginseng fruit!”

Shen Hai held a tri-colored fruit in his hand. It was like a jade, shining with a bright light.

The most surprising thing was that the fruit looked like a baby, with its small arms and legs curled up on the tray. Even its facial features were lifelike, as if it would come to life in the next second.

Such a strange scene made everyone click their tongues in wonder.

“It’s actually a ginseng fruit. It looks like it’s at least five hundred years old. It’s said that the older it is, the more human-like it looks. Eating it will make one stay young forever and increase one’s lifespan. Great elder is really generous.”

“A thousand-year-old ginseng fruit can even transform into a human form. Eating it will be of great benefit. However, a thousand-year-old ginseng fruit is extremely rare. This 500-year-old ginseng fruit is also rare.”

Hearing everyone’s discussion, Shen Hai’s expression did not change. However, his eyes were filled with pride.

“The second elder has gifted three supreme-grade Bodhi pills!”

The three green pills exuded a faint and strange fragrance, refreshing one’s heart and mind. Just like a cool spring that directly struck one’s heart, it actually gave one a feeling of enlightenment.

“The supreme-grade Bodhi pills should be at least at the sixth grade, right? Second elder is actually so generous to give three sixth-grade pills.”

“Exactly, the second elder is a very secretive person. To be able to give such a good item at such a critical moment, could he be an alchemist?”

The second elder heard the crowd’s discussion and admitted in front of everyone, “That’s right, I am indeed an alchemist. I spent a large amount of precious materials to refine these Bodhi pills. I only managed to obtain these few and I’m giving them all to the sect master.”

Good Lord! Although the second elder did not tell explicitly, it was obvious that his alchemy skill was quite high. Otherwise, he would not have been able to refine the supreme-grade Bodhi pill.

“The third elder presents the Seven-colored Satin!”

It was said to be colorful, but what appeared was white satin. Everyone couldn’t help but tease, “Third elder, you’re exaggerating. It’s completely white.”

The third elder revealed a mysterious smile, “Everyone, please take a look.”

The white satin stood in the air and floated around Han Yue. It was unknown what material it was made of, but it looked extremely ethereal. It was as thin as cicada silk. It reflected a seven-colored light under the sunlight. It was extremely beautiful.

There was also faint coldness that matched Han Yue’s attribute.

Her peerless beautiful face became even more beautiful and charming. It was obvious that she also liked this Seven-colored Satin. All female cultivators loved beauty, and even Han Yue was no exception.

Moreover, this Seven-colored Satin could be used to attack and defend. Furthermore, the female cultivator’s figure was beautiful when she used it, as if she was dancing and was tailor-made for her. One could see the third elder’s intention.

Although it couldn’t be compared to the magic weapons that Han Yue used in the upper realm, it was already one of the best in the lower realm.

“The fourth elder presents the Silver-hearted Sky Spirit Grass!”

“The fifth elder presents the Waterproof Magic Robe!”

“…”

Everyone’s gifts had their own unique characteristics. It could be said that each of them had their own merits and were extremely precious and extraordinary. However, Han Yue seemed to be uninterested in everything else other than the Seven-colored Satin just now.

However, she had always been expressionless. No one noticed her emotion.

“These things are just so-so.”

“Sect master, this isn’t the upper realm after all. If we look at the standard of the lower realm, it’s already considered pretty good,” the old man beside her consoled.

Soon, it was Xie Yixuan’s turn. He revealed a determined smile.
