This was not a disguise, because in the eyes of the Nascent Soul Monarch, every slight change in the flesh and divine soul of the other party was captured flawlessly. If one had tried to forcefully suppress their emotions, they definitely wouldn’t be able to do so without exposing any flaws in front of him.

With this level of composure, it was enough for him to see the other party in a new light.

In fact, it was not an exaggeration to say that Han Yi was calm since he realized one thing: no matter what he did, he was transparent and exposed in front of the Nascent Soul Monarch, so why not be more straightforward?

Seeing Han Yi putting away the magic weapon and sitting cross-legged, the old man’s face became serious, which made Han Yi’s face solemn as well.

“I am Master Tian Xin from the Heavenly Will Sect.”

“From today onwards, you don’t need to call me Monarch but should address me as your master.”

Upon hearing the name of the Monarch, a chill ran down Han Yi’s spine as he had heard this name before.

The Heavenly Will Sect in Shu State was considered a rather unique sect. They were very powerful because there were two Nascent Soul Monarchs within the sect, which was one more than the Wanfa Sect, another Nascent Soul Great Sect.

However, there was also a reason why they might not be considered strong.

Firstly, the ideas of the two Monarchs of the Heavenly Will Sect, Celestial Intent Monarch and Tian Xin Monarch, were not aligned.

The title of Celestial Intent Monarch was the title of the successive sect masters, representing the orthodox path of the Heavenly Will Sect, while the title of Tian Xin Monarch was created when he took a different path.

On many occasions, the two would not only not join forces against outsiders, but fight each other first instead.

The second point was that there were very few cultivators within the Heavenly Will Sect, totaling just over a hundred people.

For Golden Core sects like the Xuandan Sect, there were hundreds of thousands of disciples, and even more for Nascent Soul sects like the Wanfa Sect. However, the number of disciples within the Heavenly Will Sect, a Nascent Soul Sect that had two Monarchs, was just over a hundred; it was simply unbelievable.

The third point was that the cultivators within the Heavenly Will Sect revered and followed the will of heaven, and often did strange things that were not understood by the Cultivation World.

The Cultivation World was a place where strength was paramount. If you were to act recklessly and attract the grudge of others, even heaven would not be able to save you when you were killed; this was also the reason why there were so few cultivators in the sect.

This sect, which was formerly known as the Fate Sect, was truly on an unconventional path.

Han Yi would have to be crazy to choose to join it.

Even if he were to have a Monarch as a master and gain a strong backer immediately, he would not want to join.

Caution was his nature, and there was no such thing as a pie falling from the sky in the mundane world. In the Cultivation World, there was even less chance for an inexplicable Immortal Affinity.

If the reason was unknown to oneself, it was better to outright refuse.

“Master Tian Xin, please do not send me on such errands. I am ignorant and cannot possibly enter the eyes of a Monarch.”

Master Tian Xin did not explain but showed a mysterious smile instead.

This smile gave Han Yi the feeling that something was amiss.

“Han Yi, this is the will of heaven.”

“Heaven’s will is profound and elusive, but with a sincere heart, one can understand it.”

“Therefore, I am closer to heaven’s will and understand it better than my senior brother.”

“My disciple, rest assured. On our trip to the Daqian Imperial City, there will be no danger. On the contrary, it will be an opportunity for you.”

“The Daqian Emperor’s 2,000-year birthday celebration will be held in the Daqian Imperial City. At the celebration, there will be many Immortal Affinities bestowed upon young cultivators. Master believes that with your strength, you already have no rivals at the same level.”Read lat𝙚st chapters at nov(𝒆)lbin.com Only

“As such, you will naturally bring glory to our Heavenly Will Sect.”

Master Tian Xin stroked his white beard and seemed to imagine Han Yi winning an Immortal Affinity for the Heavenly Will Sect, ranking at the top, and showing a satisfied expression on his face.

Opposite him, Han Yi’s face froze.

He really didn’t want to make a fuss. The Daqian Imperial City was an Immortal Country that could rival the two holy lands. If it were truly the Daqian Emperor’s 2,000-year birthday celebration, it would definitely gather the cultivators from the two holy places, the three great sects, the seven Nascent Soul sects, and countless Golden Core sects.

To stand out at such an event was to make Han Yi overly conspicuous.

This was completely contrary to his nature and not the path he wanted to take a all.

“Monarch, forgive my incompetence, but I am really unable to fulfill such an important mission.”

Han Yi quickly spoke.

He must refuse this matter at all costs. Suddenly, an idea came to his mind.

“Monarch, do you have any other disciples? With the strength of the Heavenly Will Sect, your disciples must be even stronger than me. Let them take action, and I am sure they will succeed.”

This was just the opening statement for Han Yi to lead the topic. In his estimation, Master Tian Xin would surely deny it and then claim that Han Yi was the strongest. That would be the normal way to flatter someone.

However, Han Yi also had follow-up points.

No matter what, Han Yi wanted to argue with the other party. If the other party believed in the will of heaven, there was a possibility that they might suddenly realize that there were other paths to take, completely unnecessary to have an inexplicably chosen disciple such as himself.

But to Han Yi’s surprise, Master Tian Xin actually nodded.

“You’re right.”

“I’ve had two disciples before, that would be your elder and second senior brothers.”

“Unfortunately, a hundred years ago, when 1 took your elder senior brother to participate in the Heavenly Gate ceremony at Sword Cliff, he unexpectedly fell in love with the Saintess of the Sword Cliff. He even claimed that the will of heaven allowed love, which was absolute nonsense.”

“I hadn’t even reacted before your elder senior brother was slain by that Saintess. I was helpless, as that Saintess was even stronger than me. I narrowly escaped with my life after a difficult struggle.”

“Since then, Sword Cliff has forbidden our Heavenly Will Sect from going there. It’s absurd. Disciple, once you attain the Monarch’s Realm, you should take revenge for your elder senior brother.”

Han Yi’s face slightly changed, and his seated body subtly moved a few centimeters back as he asked uneasily:

“What about my second senior brother?”

Master Tian Xin looked up slightly as if in deep thought, and after a moment, he spoke.

“Your second senior brother was a genius in cultivation. Among all the cultivators I have met, he was the best.”

“At the time, he only took 24 years to cultivate from the Foundation Establishment stage to the peak of the Golden Core stage.”

“When everyone believed he would become the third Nascent Soul cultivator of the Heavenly Will Sect,”

“During his Nascent Soul tribulation, he began shouting madly, claiming that this world was fake and that he had attained enlightenment. He looked insane.”

“Sigh.”

Master Tian Xin sighed softly.

“And then?” Han Yi gulped and asked with difficulty.

“And then?”

“Under the Heavenly Tribulation, your second senior brother turned into ashes while laughing madly. What else is there to say?”

Master Tian Xin put away the regretful expression on his face, looked at Han Yi, and said seriously.

“Both your elder and second senior brothers misunderstood the will of heaven, which led to their deaths.”

“However, you are different. You are my third disciple, and you will surely inherit my mantle, understand the heart of heaven, attain the Monarch’s Realm, and by then, we, master and disciple, will be dual Monarchs. We will be able to kick that old man off his position as Sect Master of the Heavenly Will Sect, and the two of us can take turns ruling. Hahaha.”

At a distance of more than three meters, Han Yi’s body subtly shifted backward again, showing an indescribable expression on his face.

A single thought occupied all of his thoughts.

“It’s over..”
