NOVEL WEB Chapter 476: Thousand Years of Waiting!_2
The Old Taoist sighed and said, "The Saint Master uses himself as a blade to suppress the entire Holy Alliance; the world can rest assured! After this, his prestige among the contemporary Human Clan will not be inferior to the Alliance Hierarch... perhaps even surpassing it!"
The Heavenly Saint chuckled and said, "In a sense, this is also a skill for self-preservation! With his fame, even if he offends the high-level powerhouses of the Human Clan, no one would dare kill him..."
From now on, the Saint Master will not die at the hands of the Human Clan!
Within the Human Clan's sphere of influence, only the Celestials can kill the Saint Master; henceforth, he is the public enemy of the Human Clan!
These high-ranking powerhouses of the Human Clan wishing to kill the Saint Master must abandon their own status, reputation, and power... and thus become Celestials!
"Just fear they might slander the Saint Master!"
The Old Taoist pondered, "Such things are not uncommon."
The Heavenly Saint slightly shook his head and said, "The reason why he is the Saint Master is solely because his new technique can diminish or even nearly eliminate the hidden dangers of cultivation! You must intensify the promotion of this point... until eventually, no one will believe that the Saint Master is losing control due to the hidden dangers of the Old Law!"
The Old Taoist nodded, then said, "If there are connections with the Old Gods, or even with the evil entities..."
"What era hasn't had such scum?"
The Heavenly Saint said, "Whenever one appears, just kill one, isn't it? Do you really think it's possible for the Saint Master to live peacefully without any worries, no longer wielding the blade?"
Upon hearing this, the Old Taoist fell silent.
He bathed in the blood of the Ancient Dragon Ancestor, extending his life till now.
The Human Clan has never been at peace!
The powerhouses of the Human Clan are, in fact, not at peace either!
Even the current Alliance Master, who has long been waging battles all around thanks to his combat strength after breaking through the Nine Heavens, often suffers injuries!
After all, the Saint Master is not one of those descendants from noble families, indulging in wealth and luxury in Heavenly Destiny City from childhood without ever facing the so-called geniuses of the Deceit Night!
He hails from south of the Taixuan Divine Mountain!
There, he was cut off by the Demon Domain, losing contact with the Holy Alliance, facing the evil entities of Deceit Night alone in the South Mountain Sacred Land!
That is a desolate land!
The situation there is extremely harsh!
The Saint Master cut his way out from there!
He came to Heavenly Destiny City, vowing to become the blade hovering above the Holy Alliance!
It is destined that the Saint Master's life cannot be peaceful and stable!
He came to Heavenly Destiny City not to become a teacher of sages educating people!
"This person indeed has the qualifications to oversee the Heavenly Ancestor Realm!"
The Heavenly Saint stroked his beard and laughed, saying, "No wonder he was chosen by His Highness!"
——
The corpse of Marquis Wangxi has been incinerated!
Lin Yan's blade pointed at the high echelons of the Holy Alliance!
Whether it was the Supreme Pavilion, common Holy Alliance elders, commanders of various armies, powerful figures from different families, or emissaries from various Holy Lands, all were silent under the awe of the Saint Master.
Among those present, there were even powerhouses who had broken through to the Upper Three Heavens!
Among them, there were those more powerful than the Saint Master!
But no one could face the sharpness of the Saint Master at this moment!
Instead, many Supreme Elders from the Guardian Righteous Dao Sect had darkened eyes, their expressions inevitably showing shame.
"..."
Lin Yan sheathed his blade and walked down from the high platform.
Prince Zhen Nan and the three newly appointed Supreme Pavilion elders gazed at the decapitated Marquis Wangxi.
Then they looked at the departing back of the Saint Master.
Lu Qingshuang, the former Great City Guard of the Ninth City in the Northern Territory, had bright eyes filled with spirit.
She bowed, her clear voice spreading softly, "Farewell, Saint Master!"
Prince Zhen Nan and another newly appointed Supreme Elder also knelt down, "Farewell, Saint Master!"
As the three Supreme Elders spoke, from below, amidst the surging crowd, voices began to follow.
"Farewell, Saint Master!!!"
One voice after another converged, a grand momentum building.
Until now, even the forces on the high podiums were deeply affected.
With a Supreme Elder from the Guardian Righteous Dao Sect rising to pay respects to the Saint Master,
other forces couldn't sit still either.
Until finally, even the Chief Supreme Elder stood up.
"Farewell, Saint Master!"
"Farewell, Saint Master!!!"
Led by the elders of the Supreme Pavilion, all the forces rose to pay their respects.
At this moment, the Saint Master's renown reached an unprecedented peak!

"Recent cultivation has consumed quite a bit of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, but the progress has not been small..."
Lin Yan thought to himself, "Since leaving Shangri Sacred Land, I've repeatedly slain demons and evil beings, including the Cloud Ridge Three Saints and even the Sanctum Ascended Evil Spirit; now adding Marquis Wangxi... The Evil Qi has surged to 330,000!"
He looked at the incense section, his emotions rather complex.
Ever since slaying Marquis Wangxi, in less than a day, the power of incense had soared to over three million.
This showed that his deeds in Heavenly Destiny City had spread crazily across all quarters of the Holy Alliance, stirring people's hearts.
"Saint Master..."
At this moment, Li Cun stepped forward and whispered, "The Old Taoist seeks an audience!"
Lin Yan raised an eyebrow and said, "Which Old Taoist? The Supreme Elder?"
Li Cun slightly shook his head and said, "This is the current oldest elder in the Holy Alliance! He has not achieved the status of Human Martial Saint, so he is not listed in the Supreme Pavilion..."
Lin Yan was taken aback for a moment and said, "He hasn't achieved Human Martial Saint status, yet he is the oldest person in the Holy Alliance?"
"It is said that a thousand years ago, the Old Taoist bathed in Dragon Blood, which allowed him to prolong his life."
Li Cun said, "Even though the Old Taoist's cultivation is inadequate, his skills in divination and calculation are exceptionally profound, interpreting the Heavenly Mechanism, that even the Alliance Hierarch frequently consults him!"
Saying this, Li Cun's expression was somewhat unusual as he glanced at the Saint Master, hesitant to continue.
"Speak your mind clearly."
Lin Yan noticed this and frowned.
"Earlier, the Old Taoist performed a divination, discovering that south of Taixuan Divine Mountain, there was the emergence of the Ancient Immortal's Injunction, heralding the birth of a Great Luck teller of the Human Clan, and upon verification, it turned out to be the Saint Master who created the New Technique!"
Li Cun's expression was odd as he said, "So the Old Taoist went to the Supreme Pavilion, gathering various Supreme Elders, trying to force the Alliance Hierarch to abdicate in favor of... the Saint Master who was then still south of Taixuan Divine Mountain and whom he had never met!"
"..."
Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he remarked, "What an interesting fellow!"
Little White Ape gasped inwardly and thought, "This old geezer has good foresight, never having seen the Saint Master or heard of him, yet just by a single divination, intends to support my master as Master of the Holy Alliance, hoping to achieve the feat of following the dragon!"
"Fortunately, neither Niu Yan nor Tree have this ability; otherwise, where would I stand?"
"But if I had this ability, even if Niu Yan had fully inherited the master's true teachings, and was Master of Beishan Sacred Land... and even if Tree was the Lord of Blessed Land, how could they be compared to me?"
"This skill must be learned!"
——
This was the first time the Old Taoist met the Saint Master!
The excitement in his heart far exceeded anyone's imagination!
And it was beyond Lin Yan's expectation!
Only because this elder, over a thousand years old, approached and suddenly knelt and bowed, kowtowing immediately.
"Greetings to Saint Master!"
"..."
Little White Ape gasped, thinking, "So capable at currying favor? If he decides to follow my master, where would my position be in the future?"
And Lin Yan was startled, quickly helping him up, saying, "Why does the old gentleman perform such a grand gesture?"
Yet just as he helped the Old Taoist up, he saw that the old face was already flooded with tears.
"A thousand years of waiting, to finally meet the Saint Master..."
The Old Taoist said tremblingly, "I, the Old Taoist, have been waiting for your birth, for a thousand years..."
