At this moment, several stewards exchanged glances.

In each other's eyes, there was a touch of solemnity.

Soon, a steward dressed as a middle-aged scholar looked at Ji Haoyuan and said politely,

"May I ask, young friend, which elder's disciple are you?

You carry the elder's token, is there an important matter?

Or perhaps the elder behind you has instructed us with something?"

Clearly, these words were full of probing intent.

Ji Haoyuan naturally understood this.

But he came here to reveal his identity, so he did not hide anything and directly replied,

"To the several seniors, I am from the line of the Celestial Essence Ancestor, coming from the Southern Wilderness Realm, holding the ancestral token to return to the sect gate."

"What?"

Upon hearing Ji Haoyuan's words, several stewards were obviously startled.

But shortly afterward, a hint of confusion appeared in their eyes.

After all, the era of the Celestial Essence Ancestor was indeed a bit too distant for them.

Frankly speaking, it was uncertain whether they were even born back then.

Therefore, when Ji Haoyuan mentioned the Celestial Essence Ancestor, they did not immediately recall who he was.

However, they did not doubt Ji Haoyuan's words either.

After all, words can be false, but the elder's token of the Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land cannot be faked at all.

Since the person before them can hold this token and alert them,

it indicates that the Celestial Essence Ancestor he mentioned truly existed in their Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land,

and even held an elder position.

Suddenly.

One of the tall and thin men among them seemed to remember something, and his eyes showed a sudden realization.

He couldn't help but look at Ji Haoyuan and said,

"Young friend, the Celestial Essence Ancestor you mentioned, is he not the elder who has already passed away?"

"Hmm...?"

His words immediately provoked the contemplation of the others.

After a while.

These few people seemed to recall something, and their doubts gradually dissipated.

However, soon after, their brows slightly furrowed again.

To be honest, situations like this have occurred in their Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land over its long history more than once.

In fact, it happened quite a few times.

Yet the problem is, matters like this are not something the stewards can decide.

They must report to the elders of the sect for a decision.

Thinking of this, several stewards exchanged glances once more.

The steward dressed as a middle-aged scholar said to Ji Haoyuan,

"Young friend, we have understood the situation.

But this matter involves the elders of our sect, so it is not for us to decide.

Therefore, we ask you to come with us into the sect gate, and after we report to the elders, we will make a decision, how about that?"

The reason for being so polite is because they are uncertain about the higher-ups' attitude towards this matter.

Although the Celestial Essence Ancestor is from a very long time ago,

no one can guarantee whether there are still friends or acquaintances of his in the sect today.

If there are, and they do not pay attention and even show neglect, wouldn't that greatly offend them?

Therefore, unless necessary, they would not easily play the villain.

Ji Haoyuan, at this time, also roughly understood the weight of the token in his hand.

This reassured him a bit, and he nodded politely to the stewards, saying,

"In that case, I'll trouble the seniors."

As he spoke, he followed the stewards, swiftly passing through the outer area and into the gate of the Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land.

In an instant, Ji Haoyuan felt the scene before him open up.

Many towering Spirit Peaks in the distance were dotted among the blue sky and white clouds.

Various exotic Spiritual Herbs and Flowers, celestial birds and beasts, flying waterfalls and flowing springs, were set amidst endless rosy clouds.

The entire world looked like the legendary Immortal Realm.

With each casual breath, one could inhale the almost unbreakable dense Spiritual Qi.

"Nanhua, during this period, you can rest here for now."

At this point, the steward dressed as a middle-aged scholar had brought Ji Haoyuan to a Spirit Peak.

This Spirit Peak, though far from those top-level Spirit Peaks that pierce the clouds, nonetheless possesses a fifth-grade Spirit Vein.

Moreover, the peak was complete with buildings, courtyards, and caves.

Ji Haoyuan, positioned within, felt his meridians relax, and the spiritual energy around him was more lively than usual.

After thanking the steward, the steward did not linger, and after capturing a trace of Qi Mechanism from Ji Haoyuan's token, he left with the other stewards for Chongming Hall.

Ji Haoyuan did not question this further.

At this moment, he felt completely calm.

He understood that many matters were beyond his control now.

Instead of worrying and having various imaginary fears, it was better to truly calm his mind, take advantage of the environment, and cultivate well, re-examining and organizing his previous learnings.

Unbeknownst to him, this action had already been observed by several majestic figures in Chongming Hall.

Apparently, before the middle-aged scholar and the others brought Ji Haoyuan here, the relevant information had already been reported to the elders of Chongming Hall.

After all, the matter concerns the elders of the sect, so the middle-aged scholar and others would not really be slow in handling it.

If there were any hidden details they did not notice, under the discerning eyes of the sect elders, it would not escape detection.

"Fellow junior brothers and sisters, what do you make of this situation?"

In Chongming Hall.

A middle-aged man with his hair tied in a high crown, looking rather refined, glanced at the other elders present and smiled as he asked.

Upon hearing his words, a man with slightly graying temples slowly said,

"Senior Brother Lu, when Master Tianyuan was in the sect, he took good care of us.

Now his descendant in the line of tradition has found their way to our sect, indicating that there is a certain fate between those people and our sect.

I personally believe we should admit his descendant into our Holy Land."

"Junior Brother Pei is absolutely right."

At this moment, from another spot, a middle-aged beauty with her hair coiled into a bun, dressed in a dark Daoist robe, nodded and said,

"I observe that the young one's aura is harmonious, and the magical power within is like a blazing furnace, cultivated in our Mystic Sect's orthodox cultivation technique.

Our sect will open its gates to recruit disciples over a year from now.

Since we can give those people a chance to enter our Holy Land, wouldn't it be absurd if the descendant of a fellow disciple's lineage were not qualified to enter our sect's walls?"

As the middle-aged Daoist nun's words fell, the others present also nodded slightly.

However, just then, a somewhat discordant voice suddenly came from outside the hall.

"Junior Sister Dai's words are mistaken; if all our descendant followers could freely enter our Holy Land, wouldn't that be too frivolous?"
