Chapter 9: Chapter 67: Once Again Fleeting Mist Sect

After the celebration, life returned to normal for Tianyi. Well, aside from a few people trying to worm their way into Tianyi's circle of friends. Which only consisted of Daoyi, Xi Ri, and Xia Yushan. Looking at it from this point of view, it was really quite sad.

But that did not mean Tianyi didn't have a few thoughts in his head. Especially as he recalled Su Bojing's words a few days ago.

Heavenly Connection Gathering, just from its name, one could gather its connection to the Three Heavens Connection Meeting. The two events were related in a certain sense. In fact, Heavenly Connection Gathering wasn't anything the Buzhou Immortal Sect Elders officially acknowledged. 

It was initially a small gathering created from a meeting of the Sect Elders' children from the Buzhou Immortal Sect and the various other first-rate sects. With the passage of time, it slowly morphed into its modern form.

The Heavenly Connection Gathering was the most well-known name for the event. The second name of the event was known as the Young Master Gathering because only those who were under the age of a hundred and had father or grandfathers that were Elders were invited. 

As the hegemonic sect, Buzhou Immortal Sect was invited to every gathering. Aside from the young masters of the Buzhou Immortal Sect, only young masters from four other first-rate sects would be invited. 

On the Heaven Continent, there existed nine first-rate sects. Six of them offered their loyalty to the Buzhou Immortal Sect and became Vassal Sects. But the invitees were chosen from the six Vassal Sects. As only four were chosen, two would have to be left out. As for which sect's young masters would be selected? 

Only the four most outstanding groups of young masters of the six Vassal Sects would be chosen. The Heavenly Connection Gathering did not consider the six sects' ranks. Only the most exceptional young masters were invited. 

But the current Heavenly Connection Gathering would be a little different. In addition to the young masters, each young master could bring forth a young loose cultivator with great potential in their eyes. The loose cultivator nominees would battle among each other, and the winners would have a chance to join the sect. The way Tianyi saw it, it was like humans playing with fighting dogs. If the dogs were outstanding, they could be kept. If not, then they would be discarded. 

Tianyi felt that the goal of the gathering to cultivate camaraderie was straying farther away from its initial purpose. But it couldn't be helped. There was no official Heavenly Connection Gathering sponsored by the sects. 

In the end, it was something the founder of the Heavenly Connection Gathering created and passed onto the next strongest young master of the Buzhou Immortal Sect. If Tianyi recalled correctly, the current acknowledge strongest descendant of an Elder was Su Wanyu. 

As for why Su Bojing invited Tianyi?

As the current youngest Nascent Soul Grandmaster, to not invite Tianyi would make the gathering awkward in Tianyi's opinion. Outsiders might even speculate if Tianyi's relationship with the other members of the young masters were strained or not. 

Tianyi agreed, but only because it seemed interesting. But as of this current moment, another matter caught his interest.

"Mother, where are you going?" Tianyi asked his mother.

"There was a piece of concerning information gathered concerning the Northern Regions. I recalled that Yi'er said something concerning a naturally formed treasure of the yin attribute. The sect has decided to dispatch several Elders, but I decided to go myself." Mengfei said.

Tianyi nodded. So it's something concerning, it shouldn't be too bad. If it really was something that needed mother to personally intervene, then the whole Huang Realm should be under alert.

Thinking back on the northern region and the lightning seas that contained the yin-type treasure, Tianyi recalled a particular event that left him completely speechless. 

Ah, that memory. The shock of witnessing the legendary "broken engagement" plot still hasn't left me to this day. Speaking of which, the ten-year agreement should be fulfilled soon. Since mother will visit the northern regions, maybe I can drop by and watch the duel?

With my mother nearby, Monarch Soulfish shouldn't be able to sneak attack me. Although it is ridiculous to think that a mighty Immortal Monarch would specifically target me. Although... since I am the Sword Empress' son, it is not out of the question for some to scheme against me.

Tsk, but I can't waste this chance to watch a good show!

Judging by plot, if Pan Lanyue and Yan Nie were to fight. Then Pan Lanyue would definitely lose after a grueling fight. Then Sect Master Yun would definitely try to reclaim face and make Yan Nie submit in some way. I wonder if I Pan Lanyue won, what would happen?

As Tianyi began to formulate a plan, he did not know that his machination would definitely be discovered according to the familiar plotline. And Yan Nie would definitely come seeking revenge in some way. In other words, Tianyi was raising flags and seeking death for himself.

"Mother, since you are going to the Northern Regions, can I come with you?" Tianyi asked. 

Mengfei paused, seemingly pondering the question. Soon she nodded her head. "You can."

"Thank you, mother," Tianyi said, the excitement in his eyes not hidden at all. 

In the next few days before leaving, Tianyi contacted Xi Ri and Xia Yushan to inform them that he would be out of the sect for a time. Last time Xi Mengfei left the sect, Daoyi had to rely on the Eighteen Flower Fairies and Xia Yushan for guidance. Both Xi Mengfei and Tianyi were not even there to guard her Foundation Establishment Heavenly Tribulation!

To this end, Tianyi decided to invite Daoyi to come with them to the northern regions. Daoyi readily agreed, and when Tianyi asked why, she said.

"Senior brother, although the Buzhou Immortal Sect is large, seeing the same scenery time after time gets boring after a while. My cultivation is still low, so I cannot go to too many places. If it were not for senior brother, I would not have been able to visit the city at the base of the mountain at all."

"Besides, aside from the Xi Dynasty Capital and the Buzhou Immortal Sect, I have not visited many places. Don't you recall that I wanted to travel the world?" Daoyi said.

Tianyi did recall this, and he also recalled that Daoyi wanted to find a certain place.

"Junior sister, I also recalled that you wanted to find a certain place, what place is it?" After all, as Daoyi said, she had only known these two places. Then what place would she be searching for?

"I don't know, you can say it is a place from a dream." There was a melancholic tone in Daoyi's voice as she gained a faraway look. But she soon hid it. "I heard that senior brother has visited the Northern Regions before. What was it like? How is it different from the Xi Dynasty?"

Tianyi slightly puffed out his chest and acted the part of a knowledgeable senior. "I've visited the Fleeting Mist Sect, I traveled to the Capital of the Pan Kingdom and Jingyang City. I'll show you around once we get there!"

"Okay, I'll be relying on you senior brother!" Daoyi said with a smile.

On the day of departure, Tianyi was surprised to see someone else accompanying them.

"Elder Shan!" Tianyi said. "I didn't realize you were also going."

Elder Shan chuckled as he reached out to pet Tianyi's head like old times, but Tianyi tilted his head away.

"How can I not? Even though Grand Elder Xi has decided to go personally, I can still use this chance to check up on Old Codger Yun." 

Tianyi nodded. The friendship of Sect Master Yun and Elder Shan, people from two different worlds, greatly surprised him.

"Let's go," Mengfei said once everyone was ready.

Tianyi titled his head and looked at his mother in confusion. They were still on Jade Peak, were they not to board the immortal boat to leave?

His question was soon answered as a pillar of light descended down and encapsulated the four of them. Tianyi and Daoyi both showed shocked and panic but soon calmed down upon seeing the unperturbed Xi Mengfei and the amused look Elder Shan gave them.

The ground beneath the four had given way to a board of light that started to rise. The closest experience Tianyi could relate was that of an elevator. A very fast rising elevator made of glass.

Tianyi did not consider himself to have acrophobia, the irrational fear of heights, he can walk on air and fly using a sword after all. But watching the ground shrink at an unbelievable rate, he felt as if his legs began to quiver. He wanted to not think about it, but like a bruise that he kept poking, Tianyi could not remove his eyes from the distancing ground.

When they broke through the dimensional walls, Tianyi released a sigh of relief. The Huang Realm looked like a world within a giant marble from his view now. But he wondered why they would need to leave the Huang Realm to go to the northern regions.

When the elevator of light stopped, Tianyi and Daoyi found themselves within a magnificent palace. The signboard leading towards the palace read "Heaven, Earth, Man Trinity Palace."

"Mother, this is?" Tianyi asked.

"My residence and the place that I spend the most time on when meditating on the Dao," Mengfei said. "But I haven't been here in twenty years."

Twenty years, that was Tianyi's current age now. It need not be said why Mengfei had not stepped into the Heaven, Earth, Man Trinity Palace in these years. 

Mengfei's lips curled upwards slightly when she saw Tianyi's guilt-ridden eyes. Her hands reached up and pinched Tianyi's cheeks. Both Tianyi and Mengfei stood in silent shock at Mengfei's sudden action.

When Tianyi was at his cutest all those years ago, Mengfei had never done such a thing. But now Mengfei suddenly did such an unexpected thing.

Tianyi quickly stepped back and rubbed his flushed face. "Mother, I'm no longer a child. You shouldn't do this to me."

Mengfei looked away. But if one looked closely, one could see the tip of her ears slightly tinged with red. However, no one could tell as the group of four soon began to descend downward once more.

Mengfei, however, felt that Elder Shan had seen through her as he stroked his beard with an amused expression on his face. Even Tianyi dared not look at Daoyi, who he knew was giving an amused smile at him. Like this, the duo of mother and son descended down into the Huang Realm in silence.

As the quartet descended closer onto the ground, Tianyi noticed that the destination wasn't where they began. He blinked as he realized that the destination was also extremely familiar.

As they neared closer to the ground, the four saw large groups of people gathering and surrounding the pillar of light. When the four finally touched the ground, a Nascent Soul Grandmaster and several Core Formation Masters already surrounded them. Tianyi also noticed a familiar-looking young lady dressed in pink.

He quirked his lips upward, amazed at how the travel time was reduced from several weeks to less than an hour. Tianyi briefly wondered why Mengfei didn't use this to go to the Xi Dynasty but wrote it off as not wanting to cause a ruckus as she had done here.

Tianyi was the first to speak as he looked at the familiar person who hadn't seem to change at all.

"Long time no see, Sect Master Yun, big sister Pan." Tianyi said with a sheepish smile.

Sect Master Yun looked at Tianyi with disbelieving eyes as he shakily pointed his forefinger at Tianyi. "Little friend Tianyi?"
