Purple Bamboo Courtyard, under the old locust tree.

Li Hong reported to Tang Tian about the information he had gathered. Hanhai Hongyuan.

"Xiao Xue was brought back to the sect by Elder Hanhai six years ago."

"Elder Hanhai is one of the seven elders in charge of the main peak of the sect!"

Tang Tian's heart skipped a beat.

The elders in charge of the main peak of the sect held high status and power within the Qingyue Sect, second only to the sect master and the grand elders. Their status was even more prestigious than the peak masters of other main peaks.

No wonder Yunkong said that this matter involved a struggle among the higher-ups.

"Although Elder Hanhai holds a respected position, he has always been in a subtle competition with another elder in charge of the main peak."

"His name is Elder Hongyuan."

"And from my investigation, Elder Zhongyang, who is in charge of assigning Xiao Xue, has a very close relationship with Elder Hongyuan."

"You could say it's a subordinate relationship."

Li Hong said.

Tang Tian tapped his finger on the table.

In other words, Zhongyang deliberately arranged for Gu Xiaoxue to be by his side in order to make Elder Hanhai lose a promising disciple.

This wasn't a major conflict, at most it was a small conspiracy.

Unfortunately, he himself had become a victim of this small conspiracy.

Tang Tian didn't believe that if he really ruined Gu Xiaoxue, Elder Hanhai would let him off the hook after he came out of seclusion, claiming ignorance.

And by then, Zhongyang could easily distance himself from him, saying that he was just fulfilling his duty and didn't know what would happen next.

At worst, there was still Elder Hongyuan protecting him from behind.

The only ones being sacrificed were Gu Xiaoxue and Tang Tian, the "upstart without much background".

"They are being treated as insignificant pawns."

Tang Tian rubbed his chin.

If he really was just an upstart, he would definitely suffer heavily when the time came.

But unfortunately, he had risen too quickly, and even someone like Elder Hanhai couldn't easily do anything to him.

Besides, he hadn't really done anything to Gu Xiaoxue, he just needed to explain himself.

It's just that he was inexplicably played by someone, and Tang Tian was quite unhappy about it.

Especially Zhongyang, he had fed him so much dog food, it would be fine if he didn't treat him like a dog, but he secretly set him up.

It was simply unbearable.

After thinking for a moment, Tang Tian asked, "Doesn't Xiaoxue have a senior sister?"

"What's the deal with that person?"

There was another suspicious point in this incident, Gu Xiaoxue's senior sister.

Because of her senior sister, Gu Xiaoxue was told that she needed Nascent Soul Pills to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, and if she lacked money, she should become a bodyguard.

But in fact, Gu Xiaoxue didn't even use a single Nascent Soul Pill to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

"Xiaoxue's senior sister is called Luodanya, she is one of Elder Hanhai's direct disciples."

Li Hong said, "After Xiaoxue became the young master's guard, she went into seclusion and is currently attempting to break through to the Fusion Realm. She should also be preparing to participate in the upcoming Ten Thousand Demon Tower Trial."

Tang Tian frowned slightly.

The timing of this seclusion was very subtle, it seemed strange, but it was hard to find fault with it.

But instinctively, Tang Tian still felt that this senior sister had something to do with this matter.

"What is their usual relationship like?"

Tang Tian asked.

Li Hong thought for a moment and said, "From what I know, their relationship is very good."

"Luodanya has been taking care of her since they entered the sect together."

"But four years ago, something happened."

"It was during the previous Hundred Gates Battle, Luodanya was at the peak of the Soul Formation stage and was one of the most promising geniuses to advance to the Heavenly Mansion."

"But unfortunately, she didn't perform well and fell just a little short of advancing."

"So she went into seclusion to break through to the Fusion Realm, hoping to seize the opportunity of the upcoming Ten Thousand Demon Tower Trial."

Tang Tian pondered for a moment.

Although he didn't have any substantial evidence, he still believed that Luodanya was definitely involved in this matter.

If that's the case, it's not just a simple struggle between enemies.

There are also internal ugliness.

After pondering for a moment, Tang Tian took a deep breath.

No matter what, he couldn't continue to be passive. He wanted to secretly cause trouble and then protect himself with wisdom?

How naive.

He had to find a way to prevent any of the participants from escaping.

"Let's stop here for now, I'll figure out the rest myself."

Tang Tian said, "Prepare yourself, in a few days, it will be time for the opening of the Dragon Transformation Pool."

After Li Hong listened, he was stunned.

"The Dragon Transformation Pool?"

He suddenly became excited and cautiously asked, "Young Master, are you saying..."

Tang Tian nodded with a smile, "I managed to secure some spots."

"At that time, you, Xiaoxue, and the Blue Jade sisters will all be able to enter the Dragon Transformation Pool and seize opportunities."

Li Hong's gaze became blank.

He had gathered information about the Dragon Transformation Pool, so he naturally understood how difficult it was to obtain a spot.

Even the top core disciples might not be able to secure one!

He had never thought that he would also have the qualifications for it!

Li Hong looked at Tang Tian with determination, stood up, and deeply bowed.

"Young Master's grace."

"I have nothing to repay it with!"

Tang Tian waved his hand, "Just seize this opportunity."

"I'm still waiting for you to achieve good results in the Ten Thousand Demon Trial Tower."

Li Hong clenched his fists and said firmly, "I will not disappoint Young Master's expectations!"

...

A few days passed quickly.

In the end, Tang Tian still didn't wait for the investment activity on the Ninth Peak, so he could only participate in the Dragon Transformation Pool with his Immortal-level Gluttonous Body and the Inheritance-level Gluttonous Secret Technique.

Yun Kong had informed him early on and even sent someone to invite him.

Afterward, Tang Tian, along with Li Hong and Xiaoxue, stepped onto the main peak.

They finally arrived at a position close to the peak after going all the way up.

This was a cliff, and above the cliff was a relatively flat area. When Tang Tian arrived, many people had already gathered there.

Several young core disciples, each with a strong aura.

Lu Changge, Tian Yangsheng, Jing Heng, and others were also present, standing with Yun Kong.

"Master Tang, over here."

Yun Kong saw Tang Tian and smiled, inviting him over.

Tang Tian walked over.

After chatting with Yun Kong for a while, Tang Tian stood in place, waiting for the opening of the Dragon Transformation Pool.

At this moment, Jing Heng walked over, smiling and cupping his hands, "I haven't had a chance to thank Young Master Tang for the inspection meeting a few days ago."

"You made us at the East Peak breathe a sigh of relief."

"In the future, when you come to the East Peak, you will be our most honored guest. If you need anything, just let me know."

Tang Tian shook his head, "Everyone is working for the development of the sect, Jing Young Master doesn't need to worry about it."

He and Jing Heng didn't have any conflicts, and they had even had a good exchange before.

Maintaining this superficial relationship was enough.

After chatting with Jing Heng, Guan Meng also came over and expressed his gratitude to Tang Tian.

This person seemed to have a more silent personality, and they didn't say much to each other, just getting to know each other a little.

After all, they were all in the same circle now.

After a while, Mo Xiaoxiao arrived late.

Shortly after, the four peak masters also arrived.

Under the leadership of Yun Kong and the sect's elder, the Dragon Transformation Pool was officially opened.
