The first thing was Linglong's reply, several letters: "Zh Tian, are you well? I was just taken as a disciple by the Grand Sect Master, and I'm not used to it yet. Are you doing okay over there?"
"Zh Tian, are you there? I participated in the sect competition today, guess what? I actually ranked in the top three!"
"Zh Tian... Why aren't you replying to me? Linglong... misses you. I can't quite say it, but I miss you. Give me a word, are you alive or dead?"
Ming Zh Tian smiled and opened another letter: "It's been half a month, and you still haven't replied. I've been chosen as the Saintess. Are you happy for me? But I can't be happy. Because I heard that being a Saintess requires sacrificing many people and many things, including love..."
"..." Ming Zh Tian opened the last letter. It was a blank sheet of paper. Ming Zh Tian thought it was hidden content, tried soaking it in water, and in ink, but found nothing. So he confirmed it was just a blank sheet.
Ming Zh Tian mused, "Is Little Linglong angry? Never mind, don't overthink it. I'll reply to her first."
He then proceeded to write a letter and soon sent it out.
Guo Qiang had broken through to the first level of the Wang Tian realm thanks to the pills given by Ming Zh Tian! He had been waiting in Qimen for a long time, and as soon as he received news of Ming Zh Tian, he rushed to find him.
The powerful aura from the Forgotten Secret Realm had attracted the Grand Sect Master of Zhang Tian Yue, Nan Xing Kong, to come out and meet him. He tore open a spatial rift, and a young man in white, riding a black flame Qilin, appeared before Ming Zh Tian with an imposing presence.
Nan Xing Kong looked down at Ming Zh Tian in the letter-sending pavilion: "Such a strong and domineering aura. How can I feel like I'm on par with him?"
"..."
"What happened? What?! Wei Ao was killed by Ming Zh Tian?"
"I understand." Tian Nan Jie showed no excessive emotion.
The Sect Master of the Wu Wei Sect, Xian Ya, stood respectfully before him, explaining the whole story. It was clear that he was the one who had reported Ming Zh Tian to Tian Nan Jie.
Xian Ya thought he had misheard: "Understood? Sect Master, aren't you going to punish Ming Zh Tian?"
Tian Nan Jie waved his hand: "You may leave."
"Yes." Xian Ya felt somewhat bewildered.
Space tore open again, and two figures appeared in mid-air. They were the Sect Master of Kai Shan Sect, Bai Ling Yue, and the Sect Master of Shi Ying Sect, Xiao Le.
The two of them said in surprise simultaneously: "Greetings, Grand Sect Master!"
Xiao Le said: "Grand Sect Master, may I ask why you have emerged from seclusion early?"
Nan Xing Kong, dressed in a white robe with a smooth fabric printed with auspicious clouds, said leisurely: "I heard there is a new prodigy, so I came to meet him."
Just then, space tore open once more, and Tian Nan Jie also arrived. He looked at Ming Zh Tian and noticed his eyes had become much sharper. He then nodded with satisfaction: "Young Ming, congratulations."
Ming Zh Tian cupped his fists: "Thank you, Sect Master Tian Nan, for bestowing this opportunity. I, Ming Zh Tian, will certainly remember it."
Tian Nan Jie smiled slightly and waved his hand: "It's nothing."
Guo Qiang and Jie Qing Xia cupped their fists: "Greetings, Sect Master!"
As Tian Nan Jie nodded, Nan Xing Kong, riding the black flame Qilin, descended with the two sect masters accompanying him.
At this point, over twenty thousand people had gathered, and they said in unison: "Greetings, Grand Sect Master! Greetings, Sect Master!"
Nan Xing Kong said: "You must all be tired after a month of trials in the secret realm. Go back and rest early."
"Thank you for your consideration, Grand Sect Master!"
Some people left, while a small group who wanted to watch the show remained.
Nan Xing Kong looked at Ming Zh Tian: "You are Ming Zh Tian? Xiu Luo Realm, first level. Not bad, not bad."
Bai Ling Yue of Kai Shan Sect said happily: "Congratulations, Grand Sect Master, congratulations, Sect Master Tian Nan, on gaining a Xiu Luo Realm expert."
Mao Bujin whispered a few words into Xiao Le's ear. Xiao Le of Shi Ying Sect smiled knowingly, then stepped forward: "I heard this Ming Zh Tian killed a sect master in the Forgotten Secret Realm. Is there any truth to this?"
Ming Zh Tian admitted: "He was killed, so he was killed."
The scene immediately erupted in a "clamor!~..."
Xiao Le sneered: "He was killed, so he was killed? That was a sect master! Furthermore, I also heard you almost killed two sect masters from my Shi Ying Sect. Is that true?!"
Mao Bujin and Fei Yi Ning thought he would deny it. Ming Zh Tian, however, said: "If I didn't kill them, they would have killed me. So what?"
