"Moreover, how could Wang Yifeng, just to conceal a relationship with Meng Qian that was bound to be exposed, let Wang Ye, such a prodigious talent, waste so many years for nothing."

"With Wang Ye's talent on the Spirit Star, had he arrived here earlier, his reputation would have risen long ago, instead of taking so long to finally emerge."

Yuan Lue pondered; his master's words made some sense.

Yet he still found it hard to believe.

Yuan Mou continued to help Yuan Lue analyze, "Moreover, Wang Ye received the approval of the Lord of the Universe. Given the status of the Lord, why would he choose Wang Ye without reason? Do you really think it's all about Wang Ye's opportunities?"

"It's because he comes from Earth Star! He and the Lord of the Universe hail from the same place! When problems arise on Earth Star, we can choose not to intervene, anyone can choose not to intervene, but if Wang Ye encounters issues, he must step in!"

Every condition Yuan Mou spoke of was analyzed or guessed based on certain events.

Yet every word he spoke was with great certainty.

This was the confidence of being the Yuanling Sect Master.

Yuan Lue said nothing further.

But from his expression, it was clear that Yuan Lue did not believe Yuan Mou's words.

Seeing this, Yuan Mou laughed and said to Yuan Lue:

"If you don't believe me, how about a bet between the two of us?"

"A bet?"

"Yes."

Yuan Mou nodded, "If Wang Ye arrives, you directly grant me a Power of the Great Dao; if Wang Ye doesn't come, I'll grant you one."

"Fine."

Yuan Lue agreed immediately.

After discussing above the Yuanling Sect, Yuan Mou and Yuan Lue descended, and a disciple of the Yuanling Sect approached them, saying:

"Sect Master, Saint Heir, the saint son of the Ice Sect wishes to meet the Sect Master outside."

"Alright, let him in directly. Our Yuanling Sect has always had a good relationship with the Ice Sect."

"Yes."

The disciple, having received Yuan Mou's instructions, began to make arrangements.

Yuan Lue looked at Yuan Mou with surprise; he hadn't expected his master to have guessed correctly.

In such a situation, Wang Ye coming to the Yuanling Sect likely meant only one thing: he wanted the Yuanling Sect Master Yuan Mou to intervene, representing the Lord of the Universe, to calm other sects and forces.

Yuan Mou turned his head, smiling at the surprised Yuan Lue, and said, "I won this bet between the two of us."

"Next, remember to give me a Power of the Great Dao."

The Power of the Great Dao is captured by merging Divine Sense into the Great Dao Universe, a task few can achieve due to the required strength of Divine Sense. Capturing it directly can easily cause issues.

However, it's different in the Yuanling Sect.

The Yuanling Sect has an opening connected to the chaos, where the Power of the Great Dao sometimes drifts through, allowing the Sect's people to collect it directly.

Once enough is collected, it forms a Strip of Power.

Absorbing it can enhance one's strength.

The reason Yuan Lue managed to ascend to the Pinnacle of the Harmony Realm in his forties or fifties is due to his daily capture of the Power of the Great Dao in the chaos.

"Alright, certainly."

Yuan Lue smiled bitterly.

It wasn't that he was reluctant to part with a Power of the Great Dao; capturing it is simple, merely time-consuming. But for cultivators with extended lifespans, time isn't a significant factor.

He just hadn't expected to lose to his master so easily.

The Yuanling Sect.

Star Pavilion.

Star Pavilion was where Guo Yi practiced diligently. Rumor has it that Guo Yi intended to create numerous stars in his domain to form a perfect universe.

Thus, the place where Guo Yi isolated and practiced became known as Star Pavilion by those in the Yuanling Sect.

Due to Guo Yi's absence for millennia, Star Pavilion now serves as a place for the Yuanling Sect Master to cultivate.

If esteemed guests visit, they can also be invited to Star Pavilion for refreshments.

When Wang Ye arrived at Star Pavilion led by Yuan Mou and Yuan Lue, he immediately felt the pervasive Power of the Great Dao.

In an instant, Wang Ye sensed an enlightenment; the imperfect Dao he was grasping stabilized somewhat.

The aura of Star Pavilion brought a sensation almost identical to Wang Ye's myriad Dao shadows, with many overlapping aspects.

Seeing this, Wang Ye looked at Yuan Mou and respectfully asked, "Sect Master Yuan, is this the place where the Lord of the Universe often practiced?"

Wang Ye had never been to Star Pavilion nor heard of it before, but just by sensing the energies in Star Pavilion, he deduced as much.

"Yes."

Seeing that Wang Ye had noticed, Yuan Mou didn't conceal the truth and nodded affirmatively.

"Hmm."

With a hum, the three of them sat cross-legged in three different spots, and between them appeared a table and cups filled with freshly brewed tea.

"Sect Master Yuan, my visit concerns matters of Earth Star."

Wang Ye spoke while eyeing Yuan Mou, observing his reaction, then asked with some doubt:

"Did Sect Master Yuan already know the reason I came to the Yuanling Sect?"

"Yes."

Yuan Mou took a sip of tea, "When you appeared in the Ice Sect, there were speculations you were from Earth Star. Otherwise, Wang Yifeng, who never admitted his relationship with Meng Qian, wouldn't suddenly acknowledge this emotional debt."

With just one sentence, Yuan Mou solidified his image as an enlightened seer.

"Sect Master Yuan, your discernment is indeed impressive. I thought that apart from those in Ice Sect and Earth Star, others wouldn't know my origin from Earth Star."

Wang Ye praised him.

Yet his words carried a hint of flattery.

Yuan Mou, however, nodded appreciatively.
