Chapter 428: Unbelievable

Inside the main hall of Tianxuan Sect, Su Che sat on the supreme seat of the sect leader. To his left were the previous sect leaders—Feng Yi, Yan Gu, Guang Wu, and Qiu Yue; to his right were Qing Xuan, Mu Ye, Zi Xiao, and Xuan Zhong.
The nine great Yuan Ying of Tianxuan Sect were gathered together.
Except for Yan Gu, who had undergone soul transformation and was a slave, the seven other Yuan Ying—Feng Yi, Qing Xuan, and the rest—had no idea why Su Che had summoned them all to the hall.
This was the first time since Su Che took office that he had convened everyone seriously to discuss matters. After the succession ceremony, the new sect leader had been busy outside, rarely seen, leaving Feng Yi and the others completely unaware of what he was up to.
Su Che got straight to the point. “I’ve called you all here today to discuss the relocation of Tianxuan Sect as a whole.”
“Relocate?”
“The entire sect?”
“Why relocate for no reason?”
Except for Yan Gu, Feng Yi, Qing Xuan, and the other seven Yuan Ying elders were all surprised and couldn’t understand what Su Che was talking about.
Su Che spoke solemnly, “Some time ago, through a stroke of luck, I learned that during the great calamity to strike within a hundred years, Qi Yuan Star will be the first to face disaster. It’s very likely that the entire planet will be destroyed, and all living beings will perish.”
“A great calamity?”
At the mention of the great calamity predicted by the celestial tremors to occur within a hundred years, Feng Yi and the others immediately thought of many things. As Yuan Ying beings who had lived for hundreds of years, they could guess the consequences without further explanation.
So, Feng Yi asked first, “Does the junior sect leader mean he plans to relocate the entire sect away from Qi Yuan Star to another realm in the cultivation world?”
“Yes,” Su Che nodded. He didn’t want to mention his Immortal Prison Space for now. “To avoid the calamity and protect the sect, we must leave Qi Yuan Star. Otherwise, when the great calamity arrives, I truly have no confidence in being able to safeguard the sect’s safety.”
Feng Yi and the other seven Yuan Ying elders fell silent, each lost in thought…
It could be said that no matter what Su Che said now, Feng Yi, Qing Xuan, and the others wouldn’t doubt him at all. Since he had already stated that the great calamity might bring complete destruction to Qi Yuan Star, it was highly likely that such a scenario would indeed occur.

The entire planet will be destroyed. In the face of such a catastrophe, an individual’s power is minuscule and essentially useless. At best, a few who are at the Yuan Ying stage might manage to survive.

For a super sect with a legacy of ten thousand years, relocating the entire sect is undoubtedly a top-priority matter. Logically, it should involve repeated discussions, careful consideration of various pros and cons, and thorough thought of countless details…

In short, an extremely complex and cumbersome process is required to reach a final decision.

Yet today, Feng Yi, Qing Xuan, and the others were merely slightly surprised and taken aback, but none of them lost their composure; they all remained calm.

Because these words came from Su Che’s mouth. Even though he was just a young man under thirty, his status in the hearts of Feng Yi and the others had already reached an unparalleled height, beyond what any predecessor could achieve.

The Tian Xuan Sect had now become the most powerful super sect in the cultivation world of Qi Yuan Star, and all the credit should go to Su Che. So how could such a sect leader do something detrimental to the sect?

“Following his arrangements will definitely not go wrong!”
That was the unanimous thought of Feng Yi and the others.

Yet even with such trust in him, the words Su Che spoke next were more astonishing and fantastical than the last, utterly unbelievable.

“I must also say that not only will the sect relocate, but nearly a hundred affiliated cultivation sects of various sizes within our territory will also follow.”

Su Che continued, “Moreover, not only these cultivation sects, but also the dozen or so human nations in our jurisdiction, with a population of over a billion, and even the livestock raised by ordinary people, will all have to go as well.”

“What?”

This time, Feng Yi, Qing Xuan, Zi Xiao, and the other seven elders finally changed their expressions drastically, their previously calm demeanor completely vanished. At this moment, they couldn’t help but wonder if their junior sect leader had suffered from improper cultivation and gone mad, speaking such unrealistic nonsense.

Could it be that everything they had heard before—about the great calamity affecting the world and Qi Yuan Star being the first to suffer—was also delusional nonsense?

Though they doubted it in their hearts, they didn’t dare judge rashly. Feng Yi cautiously asked, “Junior sect leader, do you think what you just said can really come true?”

“Elders, please stay calm.”

Su Che waved his hand with a smile, “I’m not done yet. There’s more to say. Not only the billions of beings in my domain, but also the twenty-eight super sects in the Qi Yuan Star’s cultivation world, along with all the cultivation sects affiliated to them, as well as countless beings from various countries and tribes within their territories— I want to take them all with me. Of course, it’s impossible to take them all. Initially, it’s already quite good if we can take hundreds of billions of beings.”
“Hundreds of billions of beings? Quite good?”
Feng Yi and the others exchanged glances. At this moment, it was finally clear that Junior Brother Tian Yu was definitely not in his normal state; there must be something wrong with his thinking for him to think like this…
Before they could finish thinking, Su Che continued, “Speaking of which, aside from my Tian Xuan Sect, the other twenty-seven super sects and tribes have already fully launched preparations for the great migration. Our Tian Xuan Sect should be the last to act.”
Look, his nonsense is getting worse and more absurd…
Mu Ye glanced at him with concern and worry, tentatively reminding him, “Junior Master, if other sects were to undertake such a massive operation, our Hidden Hall would surely not remain unaware. There must be secret reports related to this.”
Su Che explained with a smile, “That’s because before now, the actions of other sects have been extremely secretive, and only their most core members could be involved. Our spies and insiders have too low a status to access such top-secret information. But starting from today, it won’t be long before you, Senior Brother Mu Ye, receive an overwhelming flood of such reports.”
“Is that so?”
Mu Ye sighed faintly. Though he didn’t openly challenge Su Che, he secretly shook his head, thinking perhaps Junior Brother Tian Yu’s cultivation progress had been too rapid, causing instability in his realm, and some long-accumulated problems had finally erupted.
Su Che still wore a smile, clearly aware that it wasn’t that the senior brothers didn’t want to believe him, but rather that what he said indeed sounded unbelievable—using the word ‘madman’ was barely enough to describe him.
With such a huge matter, just relying on his words alone, no matter how he explained it, it would surely be hard for them to believe. Facts were what were needed.
“They should be here soon…”
Su Che gazed through the palace doors at the sky outside and murmured.

At this moment, this self-talk and the nonsensical words only made Feng Yi and the others sigh secretly, filled with concern: The hopes and future of Tianxuan Sect must not be at risk!
“Report!”
Suddenly, a high-pitched report came from outside from one of the attendant disciples: “I report to the Supreme Patriarch—heads of the twenty-seven super sects and tribal leaders in the cultivation world have gathered outside our sect’s gates, requesting an audience with the Supreme Patriarch.”
Although the attendant disciple’s voice was loud and clear, it carried an obvious tremor.
“Twenty-seven sect leaders coming together—what does this mean? Could it be that Tianxuan Sect is about to face joint harassment from all the sects in the cultivation world, even facing the disaster of being attacked by everyone?”
Any somewhat sensible disciple within the sect would conjure up countless possibilities upon hearing this news—none of them good…
“Twenty-seven sect leaders coming together? What do they want?”
Feng Yi, Qingxuan, and the others also changed expressions dramatically, filled with various thoughts, none of which were positive.
“Very good.”
Unexpectedly, Su Che still had a smile on his face as he ordered Yan Gu, “Yan Gu, go and bring them in.”
“Yes, master,” Yan Gu immediately stood up and bowed in response.
“Master?”
It was the first time Feng Yi and the others had heard Elder Yan Gu address Su Che in such a manner, and their expressions grew even more interesting.
“What’s going on today?” Zi Xiao slapped his forehead forcefully and asked loudly, “Is the whole world in chaos, or is there something wrong with my head?”
“Senior Zi Xiao, rest assured,” Su Che reassured him gently, “There’s nothing wrong with your head. It’s just that some changes have occurred in this world—just quite sudden.”
Although Feng Yi was also full of questions, he could somewhat deduce that the junior sect leader’s mind was fine as well. So, some huge change must have taken place in the cultivation world of Qiyuan Star; it’s just that they weren’t aware of it yet.
“Junior sect leader, letting them enter the Patriarchal Hall all at once—will that cause any problems?” Feng Yi couldn’t help but give a reminder.
“Absolutely no problems.”
To reassure them, Su Che replied seriously, “All senior brothers, please be at ease. My mind is perfectly clear; I’m not delusional at all. Today, I merely want to give you all a big surprise.”
Feng Yi nodded and said nothing more.

Elder Qingxuan was the calmest of all. At this moment, he said in a low voice, “Younger brothers, there’s no need for wild speculation. Since our leader wants to give us all a surprise, let’s just wait and see.”
These words carried an underlying meaning: Younger Brother Tianyu was already the supreme leader of our sect. As long as he held that position, even if one of his decisions was wrong, everyone had to follow his orders.
The decisions of a sect leader determine the fate of the entire sect. If he was right, everyone would benefit; if he was wrong, everyone had to work together to deal with the consequences.
There was nothing more to say—this had always been the rule of Tianxuan Sect.
The other Yuan Ying ancestors nodded in unison, adjusting their breaths and controlling their emotions. Whatever happened, they had to face the unknown ahead in the best possible mental state.
What impact would the gathering of leaders from all the major sects in the cultivation world have on Tianxuan Sect?
Whether it would bring fortune or disaster would be revealed in the next moment…
