Chapter 417: Chapter 166: Grand Preceptor, I am Now the Peak Master of Four Treasures Peak_4
Disciples would descend the mountain to discuss Dao. In general, the disciples of a Sect who follow the same Dao would go to discuss it with each other, for surely one cannot go and debate with those of another Sect who may practice the Dao of spearmanship when one practices the Sword Dao or the Dao of painting and calligraphy.
However, it is different for a Mixed Clan like the Hundred Peaks Sect or the Thousand Caves Door. A Mixed Clan has disciples following almost every kind of Dao; if your Immortal Sect practices a particular Dao, others will come to discuss that Dao with you.
Take the Military God Peak, for example. The Hundred Peaks Sect has only this one peak following the Military Law path, yet those who practice the Military Law path would still engage in discussions.
Therefore, every time there’s a discussion of Dao, the various Mixed Clans often find it quite brutal.
After all, their heritage is too mixed and heterogeneous, which makes it hard for them to excel at any one thing.
Lan Pili burst into laughter upon hearing Li Qinglei’s question, "How many did our Hundred Peaks Sect win? I’ll give you..."
Before Lan Pili could finish speaking, Du Changsheng, who had not been away for long, hurried back. Seeing the gathered crowd, he showed no sign of surprise.
After all, whenever someone from an Immortal Sect arrived previously, those who had already arrived would go to see who it was.
The arrival of the Hundred Peaks Sect, one of the Top Ten Immortal Sects, made it all the more normal for individuals from other sects to come and look.
He didn’t pay attention to these people from other sects, but quickly walked up to Lan Pili and bowed, saying, "Peak Master Lan, the Grand Preceptor summons you."
"The Grand Preceptor?" Lan Pili was momentarily stupefied.
The surrounding people were all equally stunned.
The Grand Preceptor wanted to see someone from the Hundred Peaks Sect? Generally speaking, after they arrived in the Capital City and settled down, they would all pay a visit to the Grand Preceptor.
They all had paid their respects to the Grand Preceptor, but none of them had actually seen him.
They even suspected that with the Qiankun small epoch approaching, perhaps the Grand Preceptor couldn’t suppress it and had fallen into slumber.
After all, the Grand Preceptor’s strength was truly terrifying.
But now, the Grand Preceptor had taken the initiative to summon Lan Pili of the Hundred Peaks Sect, which clearly meant he hadn’t fallen asleep.
Within their Sects, many masters had already gone into slumber, and those who hadn’t were wary of exposing themselves, fearing detection by the Heavenly Dao, and had gone into seclusion instead.
The Grand Preceptor’s strength was even greater, and yet he had not only managed to stay awake but also actively summoned others!
Moreover, it was peculiar that the Grand Preceptor wanted to meet with Lan Pili. Why him?
If it were a Peak Master from the Top Ten Peaks of the Hundred Peaks Sect who had come, it would have made slightly more sense for the Grand Preceptor to summon them.
Lan Pili was merely a Peak Master of the Ninety-Three Peak, what merit did he have to be summoned by the Grand Preceptor?
Was it just because he belonged to one of the Top Ten Immortal Sects?
Now, only the Hundred Peaks Sect among the Top Ten Immortal Sects had arrived; both the Four Extremes Sect and Tai Yi Gate, also listed among the Top Ten, had sent their representatives, yet there was no sign of the Grand Preceptor summoning them.
Pointing to himself in disbelief, Lan Pili asked, "The Grand Preceptor wants to see me?"
As far as he knew, the Grand Preceptor seldom met with anyone, so why would he summon him?
With certainty, Du Changsheng nodded and said, "That’s right, the Grand Preceptor wants to see you. Not just Peak Master Lan, but also Peak Master Cao, as well as everyone from the Hundred Peaks Sect, the Grand Preceptor wishes to see all of you."
"What!"
Surprised, those around exclaimed in shock — not only was the Grand Preceptor summoning Lan Pili, he wanted to see the other members of the Hundred Peaks Sect as well, even the disciples!
What was the Grand Preceptor planning to do?
Seeing Lan Pili still in a daze, Du Changsheng hastily urged, "Peak Master Lan, please hurry."
"Yes, Peak Master Lan, let us set off quickly. It’s not good to keep the Grand Preceptor waiting," added Cao Zhen, nudging Lan Pili to move faster as he himself was eager to ask the Grand Preceptor for favors.
"Let’s go, I will take our disciples there immediately," said Lan Pili as he called over to the disciples of the Hundred Peaks Sect, still full of doubts. The Grand Preceptor summoning them?
Was it because of what they did on the way?
But that seemed improbable.
Though they had done quite a few things, that was the Grand Preceptor — a few words of encouragement would have sufficed, why would he summon them in person?
Filled with questions, Lan Pili promptly followed Du Changsheng out of the Immortal Reception House.
The people of the Hundred Peaks Sect left, yet the members from the other Immortal Sects didn’t disperse, instead gathering at a distance, discussing in hushed tones.
"What do you think, why would the Grand Preceptor expressly summon the people from the Hundred Peaks Sect alone?"
"It doesn’t make sense; he wants to meet not only the Peak Masters from the Hundred Peaks Sect but even the disciples."
"Actually, we all know why we’ve come to Capital City this time. No one has sent their strongest members, but don’t you think the two Peak Masters sent by the Hundred Peaks Sect are a bit weak?"
"Indeed, a Peak Master from Ninety-Three Peak and another from the Hundredth Peak, what does that count for? At the very least, they should have sent a Peak Master from a peak ranked in the seventies to lead the group."
"Yet, that’s how the Hundred Peaks Sect operates, and the Grand Preceptor wants to see them, which is an obvious sign of him lifting up the Hundred Peaks Sect!"
"I still don’t understand, why would the Grand Preceptor specifically favor the Hundred Peaks Sect?" Li Qinglei’s face showed a complex expression, and there was even a hint of envy.
The people from the various Immortal Sects of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty had a complex feeling towards the entire persona of the Grand Preceptor.
To them, the Grand Preceptor was indeed someone who was a headache and even detestable, yet everyone had to admit that the Grand Preceptor was the foremost person of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty.
Being summoned by the Grand Preceptor was undeniably a matter of great pride.
"What has the Hundred Peaks Sect recently done to warrant a summons from the Grand Preceptor?"
