On the one hand, the prince felt a sense of awe and admiration for Han Cai's power, acknowledging that his talents and abilities were truly extraordinary. On the other hand, he couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment and frustration; not only had the initial plan to bring Han Cai into his faction become a distant dream, but Han Cai was also the culprit for all the tragedies in the royal family. Be it slapping the mother empress or robbing the treasury.
The prime minister had already informed him about this and advised him to be on his best behavior when he met Han Cai.
The balance of power had shifted, and the prince had to come to terms with the fact that Han Cai was now someone he would have to treat as a superior.
The sect hall was elegantly furnished, with seating arrangements on both sides. The Inner sect elders occupied one side, while the opposite side was reserved for the prince and his advisors.
Sect Master spoke, "Everyone, I have an important update for you all. The envoys from the Cui and Wang families have already arrived at our sect."
Elders of the Sky Soaring Sect rolled their eyes, including Han Cai. When did the Cui and Wang families leave? They had been guests of the Sky Soaring Sect ever since the struggle began.
The Prime Minister responded, "That's good news, Sect Master. We must welcome them warmly." He spoke as if he were part of the Sky Soaring Sect, not the royal envoy.
The Sect Master continued, "Indeed. As for the envoys from the other families and sects, they are expected to arrive soon."
The Prime Minister responded, "Excellent. The sooner they arrive, the sooner we will be able to stabilize the Sky Soaring Sect's position as the leader."
Sect Master nodded and spoke, "Once everyone is here, we will commence the first official meeting to discuss our strategies and collaborations moving forward. Let us prepare ourselves and make a good impression on our esteemed guests."
Following the sect master's announcement, the atmosphere in the guest hall shifted to one of casual conversations as the attendees engaged in small talk.
While they awaited the arrival of the other envoys, the guests were led to their accommodations, which had been meticulously prepared in advance, ensuring a comfortable and luxurious stay for the esteemed visitors during their time at Sky Soaring Sect.
Soon other envoys from the Li family, Zhou family, Yang family, and the Divine Thunder Sect arrived at Sky Soaring Sect.
The arrival of other envoys from various prominent families and sects, such as the Li, Zhou, and Yang families, as well as the Divine Thunder Sect, marked a turning point for the Sky Soaring Sect. Each envoy arrived with great fanfare, bearing lavish gifts and further elevating the status of the sect.
The sect's rise to prominence could no longer be denied; they had solidified their position as the strongest faction in Yin country. Their fame had reached unprecedented heights in Yin country, with every person, be it cultivators or mortals, having heard about the sect. This widespread recognition was primarily due to a series of recent events that showcased the sect's might and fearlessness. These events captured the attention of both the cultivation world and the general population, leading to discussions and debates about the sect's actions.
Firstly, the destruction of the Yang family stronghold made headlines across the country as the Sky Soaring Sect demonstrated its capability to take on powerful factions. Secondly, the incident involving the slapping of the empress's mother shocked everyone, as it was a direct affront to the royal family, something that had never been seen before. This audacious act was followed by the sect robbing the royal treasury, another blatant defiance of the royal family's authority.
The Sky Soaring Sect continued to make the news when it brought about the destruction of various cities belonging to the Frost Peak Sect and the Divine Wind Sect. The sect's ability to wreak havoc on multiple factions simultaneously showcased its immense power. The destruction of Starfall Sect's cities and the death of its nascent soul cultivator further reinforced the sect's unstoppable momentum.
But the biggest impact was made when Sky Soaring Sect wiped out the Starfall Sect sending shockwaves throughout the entirety of Yin country, as the sect single-handedly eliminated a powerful rival. Moreover, the sect's open challenge to the royal family, followed by the royal family accepting Sky Soaring Sect's terms, demonstrated the sect's unwavering power and the extent of its influence.
These events had turned the Sky Soaring Sect into a household name in Yin country, with both cultivators and mortals discussing and analyzing the sect's actions. The sect had become a symbol of power and defiance, leaving a lasting impression on everyone who heard its name.
As the Sky Soaring Sect gained notoriety and recognition throughout Yin country, the name Han Cai became synonymous with the sect.
Initially an enigma within the sect itself, Han Cai's exploits soon became the things of legends, catapulting him to the status of the enigma of the entirety of Yin country.
Han Cai's ascent to fame began with his astonishing display of prowess during the capture of Cui's family members. His extraordinary abilities and strength captured the imagination of both cultivators and mortals in cities near Sky Soaring Sect as they marveled at the young man who could single-handedly capture elders of one of the leading cultivation families.
His actions in the incident involving the empress's mother cemented his reputation as a fearless and bold individual who dared to challenge the highest authority in the land. This incident piqued the curiosity of the entire nation as people scrambled to learn more about the young man who had defied the royal family.
The events that transpired within Yin country, from the robbery of the royal treasury to the destruction of the Starfall Sect, remained shrouded in mystery. While there was no concrete evidence that linked Han Cai to these incidents, most people speculated that he must have played a significant role.
Rumors had been swirling around Han Cai ever since he declared his intention to take care of everything himself, alone, during the inner sect meeting.
