328: Emperor Huizong of the Qing Dynasty

Subsequently, the eight Elders all sat up straight, appearing very calm.

However, there were probably quite a few private conversations happening, which Xiuyuan was unaware of.

Suddenly, a strange pressure appeared in the great hall, and a burly middle-aged man abruptly materialized, glancing at Xiuyuan and the eight Elders.

But he did not speak, instead turning and walking to the position of the Four Holy Beast Lords, taking the head seat.

The burly man was Titan.

With the Law Comprehension Pill, Titan no longer entered the secret realm where time flowed extremely slowly; instead, he went to a secret realm where time flowed much faster than in the Yuan Ling Universe to refine the Law Comprehension Pill.

Previously, to prevent his life force from depleting too quickly and to maintain the stability of his inner World, Titan had always remained in that slow-time secret realm, recovering slowly.

However, the Law Comprehension Pill provided by Xiuyuan gave him hope of repairing his inner World, so he no longer cowered and actively entered the faster-time secret realm to comprehend laws.

If he succeeded, he would recover; if not, his inner World would shatter, and he would perish.

Ten Law Comprehension Pills were merely a drop in the ocean for a powerful being of Titan's realm; they should have had little effect.

But Titan's comprehension of laws had been at a bottleneck for a long time, only needing new inspiration, or rather, new insights to integrate. Therefore, just ten Law Comprehension Pills allowed Titan to find a direction forward.

Although the path ahead was still long and arduous, merely having a direction stabilized his World, which was on the verge of collapse, significantly.

The power left within Titan's inner World by the attacking expert seemed to find an outlet, a wisp of it dissipating. It was this tiny change that made Titan feel incredibly relieved.

His current posture was not a pretense; Titan had genuinely recovered a little.

Titan's appearance, though, was within the Elders' expectations.

After all, Xiuyuan's visit to Titan yesterday was not a secret.

Mountain Fire stared intently at Titan and chuckled, "Senior Titan's injuries seem to have improved quite a bit?"

Titan chuckled, "I'm alright; I won't die yet."

Among the eight Great Elders, Elder Feng Lin was the most astonished.

Because he was very clear about the severity of Titan's injuries back then.

Although he had also provided many healing elixirs, Feng Lin still believed that Titan couldn't possibly survive; his injuries were too severe, and crucially, his inner World had been under immense pressure. It was already a miracle that he had held on until now.

But the current Titan's condition was surprisingly good; even if it was a pretense, it still exceeded Feng Lin's expectations.

A puzzled Feng Lin glanced at Titan, then looked towards Xiuyuan, and his tightly furrowed brow suddenly relaxed, as if he understood something.

Feng Lin's change in expression was noticed by Yang Xiaoyao beside him, who couldn't help but transmit a question: "What's wrong? Your expression is completely unmasked, a bit too rich, isn't it? How long can Senior Titan maintain this state?"

Yang Xiaoyao's question pulled Feng Lin's thoughts back.

"Old Yang, Senior Titan's state doesn't seem to be a pretense. Do you remember that Law Comprehension Pill? If Senior Titan can comprehend another major law, he will naturally be able to recover from his injuries. I remember telling you about this."

Feng Lin transmitted his answer, addressing Yang Xiaoyao's confusion.

Yang Xiaoyao was startled and quickly transmitted, "If Senior Titan has comprehended another major law, with his accumulation, would he directly advance to the Saint King Realm?"

Feng Lin did not answer that question, because he didn't know either. 'You're asking a Great Saint about matters of a Saint King Realm; aren't you overestimating me?'

While everyone was transmitting messages to each other due to Titan's appearance, three more burly men in black suddenly appeared in the great hall.

The three men's appearances were very similar; one look and you knew they were brothers, or at least very close.

The three who arrived were precisely the three Ink Qilins, the Mo family brothers.

Upon seeing Titan, who was seated on the grand chair, the three of them stepped forward and bowed.

Titan remained steadily seated, merely grunting in acknowledgment.

Mo Shou, Mo Yu, and Mo Lan walked to their seats and sat down, then couldn't help but observe Xiuyuan, who was standing below.

Since bowing to Yang Xiaoyao, Xiuyuan had remained standing in the great hall, not sitting cross-legged again.

The three were observing Xiuyuan, and Xiuyuan was also looking at the three Holy Beast Lords.

Because yesterday Titan had said that the probability of the three of them appearing was zero, as they had chosen to avoid involvement due to the Sect Master and no longer meddled in affairs.

Therefore, at this moment, the appearance of the Mo family brothers astonished all eight Great Elders. One must know that these three Guardian Holy Beast Lords had not appeared for nearly ten thousand years.

Mountain Fire, Kun Mu, and Cheng Kui exchanged glances, a hint of worry appearing in their eyes.

Because the other Elders were all neutral, their attitudes being the same as Zhang Feiyang and Zhao Yi, not getting involved or asking questions.

Thus, the three of them formed a bloc, and they could interfere in many Yuan Ling Sect affairs.

But if the Mo family brothers appeared, the situation would be completely different. They were a natural alliance, immediately three votes. If they stood on the opposite side of the three.

Then the three's influence within the Yuan Ling Sect would be greatly diminished.

Nangong Yan, seeing that the four Protectors and eight Great Elders had all arrived, directly spoke, "The time has come. I estimate that the Sect Master and the two Vice Sect Leaders will not be coming. Let's begin the master-disciple discussion now."

As Mountain Fire's voice fell, the great hall abruptly plunged into a moment of silence.

Not only Xiuyuan, but even the other twelve Great Saint Realm powerhouses felt a moment of trance, though it was very brief, fleeting in an instant.

As Mountain Fire prepared to continue, a phantom appeared on the leftmost of the three highest seats, not the actual body.

"Has it begun already? My main body is outside the Yuan Ling Universe, so I can only descend with my divine sense. You all continue!"

This person's words were very amiable, without the slightest hint of arrogance.

But even Titan, who had been steadily seated in his grand chair, stood up and cupped his hands towards the phantom. Needless to say, everyone else also stood and bowed.

Finally, they said in unison, "Your subordinates greet Vice Sect Leader!"

The newcomer was precisely the Yuan Ling Sect's First Vice Sect Leader, Qing Hui, a Saint King Realm expert.

Qing Hui waved his hand and said, "Don't mind these formalities; continue!"

Nangong Yan continued with the opening remarks of the discussion. Everyone knew Qing Hui's personality: pragmatic.

However, at this moment, the phantom above was very puzzled.

In his eyes, Xiuyuan below had almost no secrets. His aptitude and everything else could be seen through at a glance; let alone being heaven-defying, he was simply a good-for-nothing.

This was an incredibly ordinary human, but what was the situation with that inner World? Why couldn't even his divine sense penetrate it?
