Jin Yue walked out of the ruins, his clothing in tatters. However, his presence caused everyone to dismiss his attire.

“Congratulations, Sect Master, for reaching Transcendental Stage.”

All of Radiance Sect was beaming with joy. When Jin Yue took on his student, he had been in Mind Dividing Stage. When his student reached Mind Dividing, he was still in Mind Dividing Stage. Everyone was worried that his mental state would have a difficult time having a breakthrough. No one had expected him to suddenly advance without warning.

“Congratulations, Sect Master.” While sword cultivators were usually controlled and formal, they could not help but smile now. “We hope that Sect Master will ascend soon.”

“Transcendental Stage is difficult, ascension is even more difficult.” With a wave of his hand, Jin Yue had his clothing repair back to normal. His expression was mild, and his imposing presence completely disappeared. At this moment, he was an ordinary boat rower, an idle farmer. He didn’t look anything like a sword cultivator.

Cultivation. In the end, one cultivated to return to the truth.

“In these years, I always had too many apprehensions and kept myself sealed in. I suddenly realized a truth from my apprentice,” Jin Yue said to the elders and peak masters. “As a teacher, when he was young, I could not let go and let him walk on his own. But when he grows up, I have to learn to let go. I thought that I was open-minded, but when teaching Zhong Xi, I made many mistakes, so he didn’t understand how to treat others, didn’t understand emotions, and didn’t even understand how to live. I raised a sharp sword, and not an apprentice.”

Ever since Zhong Xi’s spirit platform had problems, Jin Yue had been filled with guilt. It was his mistake as the master.
“Sect Master, this is not all your fault.” Song He understood Jin Yue’s meaning. A moment later, he urged, “Zhong Xi was born with that personality…”

“The more he is like that, the more attention I should have paid.” Jin Yue smiled in relief. “Fortunately, he encountered Miss Kong Hou of Splendid Cloud Sect, so he has humanity, he has feelings of joy and anger, and he can even have universal paired cultivation with her.” This Miss Kong Hou was not only Huan Zhong’s saviour, but also his saviour.

She let him put down his last apprehensions and made him clearly realize how many mistakes he had made. Fortunately, he had a chance to make up all this…

Hearing Jin Yue mention Kong Hou, Song He thought of how Splendid Cloud Sect did not want Miss Kong Hou and his shizhi to become a couple. He glanced at the sect master and did not tell him this matter. The other had just managed to see through all this and advance greatly in cultivation. He feared that his words would make the other faint in anger.

“The people from other sects are going to arrive soon?” Jin Yue put his hands behind his back like an ethereal transcendent untouched by dust. “Have the disciples be careful and not let evil cultivators sneak in.”

“Yes.” Song He looked at the main hall in ruins from the lightning and whispered, “Sect Master, we need to arrange people to repair the main hall as soon as possible.”

Jin Yue: “…”

If he had known he would have his ordeal surpassing so soon, he would not have chosen to go into seclusion in the main hall. Now, the guests were arriving soon, but the main hall was gone.

Seeing Jin Yue remain silent, Song He immediately understood. “Sect Master, do not worry. I will immediately arrange for repairs and try to finish the main hall before people reach Pei City.”

“Sect Master, the elders and peak masters of Clear Dawn Sect are visiting with their disciples.”

Song He: “…”
