Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng departed, leaving only him and Wang Guofeng.
Zhang Yuhe looked up at the sky and said calmly, "I am returning to the Sect."
Hearing this, Wang Guofeng asked excitedly, "Senior, have you Broken Through to the Void Refining Realm?"
Since nothing major had happened recently in Yunzhong Prefecture, Zhang Yuhe's return to Dao Saint Sect could only mean one thing.
He had Broken Through and was returning to Dao Saint Sect to be promoted to Elder.
Zhang Yuhe nodded slightly.
Since he had already Broken Through to the Void Refining Realm, he would naturally no longer serve as the Cloud Central Town Guardian Envoy.
Now, he only needed to report back to the Sect, and he would soon become an Elder of Dao Saint Sect.
Unlike Inner Sect Disciples,
Dao Saint Sect Elders were not required to hold specific positions; they could either Cultivate peacefully within the Sect
or travel freely as they wished. Dao Saint Sect imposed very few restrictions on its Elders.
It could be said they could do whatever they wanted, as long as they didn't rebel.
Unless a particularly significant event occurred, Elders were generally not called upon to act.
At this moment, Wang Guofeng was both excited and a little melancholic. He cautiously asked Zhang Yuhe,
"Senior, can I still work with you?"
Wang Guofeng understood that since Zhang Yuhe was no longer serving as the Yunzhong Prefecture Town Guardian Envoy,
his temporary appointment as an Inspector would naturally come to an end.
Over the past ten years, his identity as an Inspector had brought him much convenience.
Not only had he successfully Broken Through to Golden Core Great Perfection, but he had also collected a large amount of Cultivation resources.
With these resources, his future Cultivation path would be much smoother.
However, Wang Guofeng knew that the path of Cultivation was long and endless, and only by clinging tightly to Zhang Yuhe's thigh could he go further on this path.
Whether he was an Inspector or not didn't matter.
The key was to be able to continue following Zhang Yuhe, even if it was just to be a handyman or a doorkeeper.
In Wang Guofeng's view, holding onto Zhang Yuhe's thigh was equivalent to embarking on a grand Dao.
Zhang Yuhe glanced at Wang Guofeng, understanding his thoughts, but he didn't mind.
He indeed needed someone to run errands for him.
As his Cultivation continued to increase, many of the resources he now needed could no longer be bought in the player's trade market.
Even though there were many scalpers in the trade market, some Advanced goods could not be resold by them.
Since Wang Guofeng still wanted to follow him, he would let him follow; it would be convenient for running errands.
"First, come back to Dao Saint Sect with me. We'll see how to arrange things then."
After speaking, Zhang Yuhe swept his robe sleeve, taking Wang Guofeng with him as they flew towards the teleportation array.
…
A certain great hall in Dao Saint Sect.
Li Tian's stern eyes held a hint of excitement.
Compared to ten years ago, Li Tian now exuded a powerful Qi.
He was clearly in the Void Refining Realm.
He strode quickly into the great hall.
In the great hall, Lu Mingfang sat quietly on a chair.
Li Tian respectfully greeted Lu Mingfang,
"Disciple Li Tian greets Elder Lu."
Lu Mingfang looked up at him, sensing the Void Refining Realm Qi emanating from Li Tian.
He couldn't help but be surprised.
"You've Broken Through? As expected of a Fire Spirit Body, your Cultivation speed is not comparable to ordinary people."
Li Tian had been Cultivating for less than a thousand years.
Breaking Through to the Void Refining Realm in a thousand years, such a Cultivation speed had occurred no more than five times in Dao Saint Sect's history.
Lu Mingfang stood up and said happily,
"Very good, from now on, the Sect has one more Elder."
"Come with me, I'll take you to meet the Sect Master."
As the Executive Elder, Lu Mingfang was in charge of Inner and Outer Sect Disciple affairs.
Any Elder promotion naturally required the Sect Master's approval first.
Every Elder was a foundational existence for Dao Saint Sect, requiring serious treatment.
However, just as Lu Mingfang was about to leave the great hall with Li Tian,
he suddenly frowned, and a jade token appeared in his hand.
Lu Mingfang tapped the jade token with his hand.
Zhang Yuhe's voice came from the jade token.
"Reporting to Elder Lu, Disciple has fortunately Broken Through to the Void Refining Realm and is returning to the Sect. Please arrange for someone to take over the affairs of Yunzhong Prefecture."
Hearing Zhang Yuhe's voice, both Lu Mingfang and Li Tian were stunned.
"One hundred years, it only took one hundred years to Break Through to the Void Refining Realm. What kind of monstrous talent does this kid have?"
Lu Mingfang couldn't imagine how anyone could Cultivate so quickly.
It had only been a little over a hundred and ten years since Zhang Yuhe joined Dao Saint Sect.
In such a short time, he had actually Cultivated from a fledgling Qi Refining nobody to the Void Refining Realm.
What kind of incredible talent could be so monstrous?
"Could this kid be a True Immortal Reincarnation?"
Zhang Yuhe's Cultivation speed completely exceeded his understanding.
Lu Mingfang didn't know what to think.
Li Tian, standing beside him, was even more utterly astonished.
Originally, he thought that by Breaking Through to the Void Refining Realm, he had finally shed the embarrassing identity of being his Senior Brother.
Wouldn't it be embarrassing if his Junior Brother was much stronger than him?
For someone as arrogant as Li Tian, this was simply unacceptable.
Therefore, after returning to the Sect last time, he hadn't stepped out of his Immortal Cave for half a step.
He had been cultivating diligently until he recently perceived a Breakthrough opportunity and returned from Undergoing Tribulation outside.
However, before he could be happy for long, Zhang Yuhe had actually Broken Through as well.
"Damn it, he must be deliberately trying to embarrass me."
Li Tian silently complained.
But he quickly came to terms with it.
It was fine that Zhang Yuhe had Broken Through; anyway, they would all be Sect Elders in the future, with no distinction of seniority.
Hmm, thinking about it this way, it seemed acceptable.
Lu Mingfang ignored Li Tian's thoughts. He cast a spell, then took a deep breath and said to the jade token,
"Since you have already Broken Through to the Void Refining Realm, then return to the Sect first. I will arrange for someone else to guard Yunzhong Prefecture."
Outside Central State City, Zhang Yuhe stood on the flying boat, hearing Lu Mingfang's voice from the jade token.
He considered for a moment, then spoke again,
"Elder Lu, I would like to bring someone into the Sect. Is that permissible?"
He was still with Wang Guofeng.
Wang Guofeng was not a Dao Saint Sect Disciple and could not enter the mountain gate.
Although Dao Saint Sect Elders could recruit attendants, and attendants could also enter and exit Dao Saint Sect,
he truly didn't know how to handle the specific procedures.
"First, settle the person at the reception area outside the mountain gate. Once you have met the Sect Master and are officially promoted to a Sect Elder, then you can bring the person into the mountain gate."
Zhang Yuhe put away his identity jade token and said to Wang Guofeng beside him,
"We'll go to the reception area first. Once I've handled my affairs, I'll bring you into the Sect."
At this moment, Wang Guofeng was incredibly excited.
Whether he could enter Dao Saint Sect was not the most important thing to him.
Although Dao Saint Sect was a Cultivation Holy Land, what Wang Guofeng valued more was Zhang Yuhe's attitude towards him.
Hearing that Zhang Yuhe was willing to bring him into Dao Saint Sect, Wang Guofeng's hanging heart finally settled.
He had finally secured this big, strong thigh.
