Yekong stared at the stage, having heard that the Second Cult Leader was going to speak today.
Though the Grand Cult Leader was out of reach, meeting the Second Cult Leader would do. Sitting a thousand miles away from the crowd, Yekong watched as a pale young man dressed in a dark green robe with his hair tied in a high bun slowly took the stage.
Yekong noticed a faint, hard-to-detect golden halo around him—the very same token planted within Taichu Academy that served as a unique mutual recognition symbol for high-ranking disciples of the academy.
The color of this halo was crystal-clear, almost imperceptible, showing that this person was definitely no ordinary disciple. Yet among the disciples of Taichu Academy, who else possessed such immense ability to conceal themselves while remaining in plain sight?
Yekong hurriedly flipped open the roster, which listed the Second Cult Leader of the Counter-Realm Sect.
Moyu.
Now Yekong knew who it was.
They said the ties of fate between people were truly wondrous; after taking such a huge detour, Yekong had run into him yet again.
Yekong listened with a smile as Moyu babbled on with a straight face, then casually began chatting with the nearby cult members. Having expected a harmonious and tightly knit group of brothers and sisters, Yekong discovered instead that the members here held quite a few grievances against this Second Cult Leader.
