Riding The Wind And Waves In Shura Field [Quick Wear]

5.2 - Thank you, my lord

　　After learning about the Xuanhua Secret Realm, Shen Ran immediately realized the old sect master's plan. After leaving the girl in yellow, he immediately went to the main hall. The old sect master seemed to have expected that he would come, and the old sect master was the only one in the hall.

　　"Master." Whenever Shen Ran saw the old master, he would follow all the etiquette. The old master smiled and said, "You are here."

　　Only then did Shen Ran realize that the old sect master's sword was placed on the table. Shen Ran had not seen this sword for a long time. Ever since the old sect master's health became increasingly weak, he had never really used the sword again, and no one else had ever seen the sword.

　　"Last night, I observed the celestial phenomena and was afraid that the end had come. Han Wei, it's not that I want to force you, but apart from you, I don't know who else I can entrust the Tianyi Sect to." After the old sect leader's spiritual power declined, his face also showed signs of aging. Even if he didn't say it, Shen Ran could see it. But knowing is one thing, and seeing it with one's own eyes is another.

　　"This time, the Xuanhua Secret Realm is opened half a year earlier than in previous years. This is not only the intention of Tianyi Sect, but also the intention of other sects. It is just a test. They all want to know who the next leader of Tianyi Sect will be." The old leader slowly stood up. He staggered a little when he walked. It was just such a short distance, but he walked very hard. Shen Ran couldn't bear it anymore and immediately stepped forward to support him. The old leader held Shen Ran's arm with his backhand and said word by word, "Ran Ran..."

　　Shen Ran paused slightly, his eyes darkened. Everyone knew that the number one person in the cultivation world was Han Wei Jian Zun, but few people knew that Han Wei Jian Zun's real name was Shen Ran. Even the other elders in Tianyi Sect did not know it.

　　"When the Demon Sect was at its peak, the cultivation world was slaughtered, and the Tianyi Sect was the first to bear the brunt. At that time, almost all the elders of the Tianyi Sect were gone, and I was the only one who held on. Finally, your skills were perfected." The old sect leader said in a low voice, "The Tianyi Sect has relied on you all these years. I was seriously injured in that battle and no longer had the ability to protect the Tianyi Sect. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid the Tianyi Sect would no longer exist now."

　　Shen Ran lowered his eyes and replied, "It was the Sect Master who saved my life and taught me how to cultivate immortality."

　　"Ranran, your fellow disciples and elders...are all gone. The disciples today must not repeat the same mistakes. Tianyi Sect must not be bullied or even massacred again. Otherwise, even if I die, I will not be able to close my eyes." The old sect leader supported Shen Ran's hand and slowly knelt down, "For Tianyi Sect, I...beg you."

　　Shen Ran was startled, and quickly reached out to help the old sect master up, saying, "Sect Master, what are you doing?"

　　"My mere kneeling is nothing compared to the future of Tianyi Sect and the countless lives of the disciples." The old sect leader coughed several times, and his white beard was stained with blood. "Ranran..."

　　"I understand." Shen Ran loosened his hand slightly. After a moment of silence, he said, "I will take my disciples to the Xuanhua Secret Realm."

　　The old sect leader finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you."

　　Shen Ran didn't say anything else this time. He bowed and turned to leave the hall. After he left, the old sect leader sighed helplessly and murmured in a low voice, "This is all for Tianyi Sect. There's nothing we can do about it."
