In her own courtyard, Concubine Lan found herself engulfed by fury as well. Her once refined and serene living quarters now lay in a state of chaos, with shards of porcelain and the remnants of broken furniture strewn haphazardly across the floor. Overcome by anger, she had violently demolished everything within reach, her heart heavy with bitterness and resentment. The rise of the Sky Soaring Sect spelled not only the demise of the Starfall Sect but also heralded the erosion of her own power and influence within the Royal Family, a reality that was difficult to accept.

While the rest of Yin Country reveled in the newfound peace and prosperity, the Empress Mother and Concubine Lan found themselves mired in feelings of anger and bitterness. The sense that they had been outmaneuvered and exploited by the cunningness of the Sky Soaring Sect gnawed at them incessantly. The humiliation they had been subjected to remained an open wound, festering deep within their hearts and fueling their desire for retribution.

For the time being, they were forced to conceal their true emotions behind the closed doors of their respective chambers, patiently waiting for the day when the opportunity to exact vengeance would present itself. In the capricious world of power and politics, they recognized that nothing was ever truly permanent. With this knowledge, they clung to the hope that, eventually, their moment to retaliate would come, allowing them to reclaim the power and influence that had been so cruelly wrested from their grasp.

Months later, Prince Tian, the Prime minister, the sect master of Frost Peak, and the sect master of Divine Wind sect arrived at Sky Soaring sect. They brought along a large envoy bearing many gifts, and because of this, it took them months to arrive at Sky Soaring Sect.

The royal family and sect masters in the envoy made sure to make a grand display of this visit to save some face and not to look very weak. They also wanted to show enough respect to Sky Soaring Sect, making it clear to the people that the royal family would be doing the bidding of the Sky Soaring sect.



When the convoy traveled through the land, the people who caught sight of the procession could not help but stop and stare in awe. The hundreds of carriages were not only functional but also served as a dazzling display of wealth and power. The gold and silver trimmings on the carriages shimmered in the sunlight, drawing attention to the intricate designs and craftsmanship. People marveled at the spacious interiors, imagining the luxurious experience of traveling in such style and comfort.

Each carriage was fitted with a small table, allowing passengers to indulge in lavish meals or engage in various activities during their journey. The windows could be opened to allow a gentle breeze to waft through the carriage, ensuring that the occupants remained cool and refreshed. The attention to detail was remarkable, and the carriages seemed to be the epitome of opulence and grandeur.

Today they were at the gates of the Sky Soaring sect. The carriage procession continued passing through until it reached the Inner sect guest hall. They finally stopped at the Inner sect guest hall.

Many people came out to check out the royal envoy that had come to the Sky Soaring Sect.





As the convoy came to a halt in front of the Inner Sect guest hall, Prince Tian and his entourage gracefully descended from their carriages. Their arrival was a momentous occasion, and the atmosphere was filled with anticipation and excitement. The members of the Sky Soaring Sect had been eagerly awaiting their esteemed guests, and as they disembarked from their carriages, they could feel the weight of the moment.

Upon their arrival, the doors of the Inner guest hall swung open, and a procession of Inner sect elders emerged to welcome Prince Tian and his party. Dressed in their finest robes, they radiated an air of dignity and grace, befitting their status within the sect. The elders exchanged respectful greetings with the prince as they ushered him and his entourage toward the hall.

As the gate opened once more, the sect master himself appeared, with the legendary Han Cai standing just behind him. Han Cai's presence immediately captured everyone's attention, and they found themselves captivated by his ethereal beauty. Whispers and murmurs spread through the crowd, as they marveled at the disciple who had defied the empress's mother and lived to tell the tale.

The Inner sect elders parted, making way for the sect master to step forward and address the prince. With a warm smile, the sect master greeted Prince Tian, saying, "We of the Sky Soaring Sect welcome Prince Tian and his esteemed guests to our humble sect." The elders and Han Cai followed suit, paying their respects to the prince and his entourage.

Having exchanged pleasantries, the sect master led the way into the guest hall, followed by the Inner sect elders, Han Cai, Prince Tian, and other guests.

The prince had mixed feelings towards Han Cai. Initially, he had seen Han Cai as a talented individual who could bolster his faction's strength and standing within the royal family. His plan had been to bring Han Cai into his circle and groom him to become one of his most trusted and capable allies.

However, as the events unfolded, the prince realized that Han Cai was no ordinary person. In fact, he had turned out to be a powerhouse, someone whose influence reached far beyond what the prince had ever imagined. Han Cai had not only managed to conquer an entire country but also was about to join the Shadow Lotus, a mysterious and powerful organization. Now, even the prince's royal family would have to be cautious in dealing with him and cater to his wishes.
