    “Apart from the people of Three Sects and Two ns, all the others entering the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient should have arrived, right?”


    Standing in the air above the center of Scaling Cloud Lake, Duan Ling Tian surveyed his surroundings. He confirmed there were, at least, 20,000 people present on the scene. It was just as Huang Jia Long had said; apart from the Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials entering the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient, there were also many elites who apanied the Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials here.


    At this moment, amotion broke out near Duan Ling Tian and the people from the Supporting Fall Nation.


    “The Three Sects and Two ns are here!”


    “The Three Sects and Two ns?”


    Everyone, including Duan Ling Tian, turned to look in the direction of themotion.


    A group of people could be seen flying in the air. This group of people was further divided into five smaller groups. Each of the subgroups consisted of a few people with one person flying in the lead.


    In one subgroup, the people were not dressed uniformly. Their attitudes held a certain casualness. The leader of this group of people was a rotund middle-aged man who kept stroking his round belly as he moved. His eyes were small as though they had been squeezed together on his face.


    In another subgroup, all the members wore the same robes. However, when they drew closer, one would be able to see the minute differences in their otherwise simr robes. For example, an old man, who was clearly the leader of the group, had fine golden trimmings on the edges of his sleeves and robe. Meanwhile, the two people standing behind the old man had silver trimmings on their sleeves and robes. As for the others in the group, they had bronze trimmings on their sleeves and robes.


    ‘They should be from the Simplicity Celestial Sect…’ Duan Ling Tian spected inwardly as he looked at this group of people dressed in robes with different color trimmings. The Simplicity Celestial Sect was one of the Profound Nether Mansion’s Three Sect and Two ns. The Simplicity Celestial Sect could be counted among the top three grade-seven sects in the Profound Nether Mansion.


    The only forces in the Profound Nether Mansion that wereparable to the Simplicity Celestial Sect were the two sects from the Three Sects and Two ns: the Cloud tform Celestial Sect and the Coupling Celestial Sect.


    Soon after, Duan Ling Tian’s attention shifted to a group of people who were dressed in simple Buddhist robes in gold, silver, and red color. Only one person among this group of people wore a golden Buddhist robe. It was an old man with a kind gaze and the appearance of a sage. However, his aura was rather sinister, giving him a contradictory feeling. ‘These people should be from the Cloud tform Celestial Sect…’


    Duan Ling Tian had heard that the Cloud tform Celestial Sect was a sect that consisted only of monks like the Blissful Sect in the bordends. One would have to be a monk if they wanted to join the Cloud tform Celestial Sect.


    Soon after, Duan Ling Tian turned his attention to the most eye-catching group. “And these people should be from the Coupling Celestial Sect.”


    A handsome young man dressed in magnificent robes sat on an exquisite roofless sedan that was carried by eight people; four of them stood at the front and another four stood at the back. The eight people carrying the sedan were dressed in tight gray servant robes. Apart from that, five young women and five young men trailed after the sedan like shadows. These ten people were all good-looking. Simr to the handsome young man sitting on the sedan, they were also dressed magnificently.


    “The Coupling Celestial Sect!” An excited cry sounded next to Duan Ling Tian.


    Duan Ling Tian was extremely familiar with that voice. He did not need to turn and look to know the voice belonged to Huang Jia Long. Not understanding Huang Jia Long’s excitement, he asked in confusion, “Jia Long, why…”


    Before Duan Ling Tian could finish his question, Huang Jia Long said with a sheepish smile, “Sorry, I got a little carried away.” Then, he shifted his eyes to the people from the Coupling Celestial Sect before he continued to say, “I got carried away because the Coupling Celestial Sect is my first choice of sect to join. If I’m not mistaken, the leader of the entourage from the Coupling Celestial Sect is the sect’s third sect leader, Bihai Mingfeng!”


    Huang Jia Long’s eyes shone with admiration as he exined to Duan Ling Tian, “The Coupling Celestial Sect has three sect leaders. Although the third sect leader might not be the strongest among the three, his talent is the highest. It’s said that apart from being the Third Sect Leader of the Coupling Sect, he holds an important position in the Profound Nether Mansion as well…”


    Duan Ling Tian looked at Huang Jia Long knowingly and said, “If I’m not mistaken, the reason you want to join the Coupling Celestial Sect is due to the sect’s dual cultivation technique, right? Based on my knowledge, the dual cultivation, or the twin cultivation technique, of a man and woman can rapidly improve one’s cultivation…” Then, he added with a sigh, “If you join the Coupling Celestial Sect, who knows how many women would be corrupted by you? The lure of this technique isn’t something ordinary women are able to resist.”


    Huang Jia Long furrowed his brows and said, “Brother Duan, your words are a bit unpleasant… What do you mean by corrupting women? I’m only saving them from being cheated by other men. Am I someone who doesn’t take responsibility for my actions?”


    Although Huang Jia Long was frivolous, he was not without a sense of measure. He was not someone who would force himself on a woman using his status and power. This was something Duan Ling Tian appreciated despite Huang Jia Long being a shameless womanizer.


    Duan Ling Tian shook his head. “Alright, alright, you’re not someone who doesn’t take responsibility.” After saying this, he no longer continued this topic. He returned his attention to the five small groups of people.


    Duan Ling Tian looked at another group of people who were dressed in different robes like the first group of people that was led by a rotund middle-aged man. Based on the whispers in his surroundings, he learned that this group of people were from the Three Sects and Two n’s Gongyang n, a grade-seven n.


    Duan Ling Tian then turned to look at the first group of people he saw that was led by a rotund middle-aged man. ‘So, the first group is from the Zhangsun n?’


    With this, Duan Ling Tian had seen all the entourages from the Three Sects and the Two ns.


    Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!


    Soon enough, the five leaders of the groups hovered in the air in front of Duan Ling Tian and the others. They swept their eyes indifferently across the crowd standing in front of them.


    A few people who were standing close to these five people moved away, making space for them.


    The rotund middle-aged man, the leader of the group from Zhangsun n, looked at the other four leaders and said with a faint smile on his face, “Sect Leader Bihai, Deputy Sect Leader Heng, Deputy Sect Leader Zhangsun, Elder Gongyang Yu, I think we should choose a representative among us to be in charge of the opening. What do you think?”


    It did not escape Duan Ling Tian and the others that the rotund middle-aged man was the most respectful to Bihai Mingfeng when he spoke to the four leaders. Moreover, Bihai Mingfeng was also the first person he greeted.


    “The leader of the Zhangsun n seems a little too respectful to Coupling Celestial Sect’s leader. As far as I know, although Zhangsun n is weaker than the Coupling Celestial Sect, the difference is not much, right?” A middle-aged man standing near Duan Ling Tian said to hispanion in a hushed voice, “There are other leaders as well from the Three Sects and Two ns, but why does it seem like he’s only fawning over the leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect? There’s no need to go to such an extent, right?”


    “Don’t you know who’s that person from the Coupling Celestial Sect?” the man’spanion asked in confusion. It was as though he could not understand why the man would ask such a stupid question.


    “Who’s he?” The middle-aged man frowned. Clearly, he did not know what hispanion was talking about.


    “That person is the Third Sect Leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect, Bihai Mingfeng!” thepanion replied as he looked at Bihai Mingfeng reverently


    “What?” The middle-aged man inhaled sharply upon hearing hispanion’s words. “H-he… He’s the Third Sect Leader of the Coupling Sect? One of the Ten Inspectors of Profound Nether Mansion?”


    “That’s right!” The middle-aged man’spanion nodded slightly. “Now you know why that person from the Zhangsun n is so reverent, right?”


    The middle-aged man smiled wryly in response. “This person is even more frightening than the Great Sect Leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect. Rumor has it that his strength might have already surpassed the Great Leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect.”


    “I don’t think it’s just a rumor. Do you think it’s easy to be an Inspector of the Profound Nether Mansion? There are only ten of them in the Profound Nether Mansion,” the middle-aged man’spanion replied.


    When Huang Jia Long heard the two men’s discussion, he approached them and curiously asked, “Gentlemen, is it really true that the third sect leader’s strength has surpassed the Great Sect Leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect?”


    “That’s old news,” the middle-aged man’spanion replied, “Perhaps, you haven’t heard about it, but did you know the Great Sect Leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect tried for the position of an Inspector of the Profound Nether Mansion but failed?”
