The highest greeting resounded across the sect.
The most sacred acknowledgment.
Reserved only for one when used within the sect. Outside, the commoners and other cultivators might refer to a the Slaughtered Moon Divine Blood Sect disciples with it. But that was because they were representing the sect.
But within the sect only one person deserved this, the Patriarch.
The Slaughtered Moon of the sect itself... Hong Tianyue!
Even the Peak Heads were stunned.
They had anticipated his awareness. After all, such a large phenomena was impossible to ignore.
But they did not expect his presence in person.
The First Kidney Peak Head moved immediately, his usual composure broken for the first time as he bowed deeply. The Second Kidney Peak Head followed, his earlier smugness replaced with solemn respect.
Han Yu himself felt a chill run through him.
This was not fear.
Not entirely.
It was pressure.
