"These details are likely what you wanted to know, Xiao Lin? At the same time, I think this explains why you saw someone from the Sky Serpent Empire's Imperial Family using the Dou Techniques of my Yun Lan Sect."
"However, I fear that in this lifetime, I do not have the ability to reclaim the lost heritage of my Yun Lan Sect from the hands of the Sky Serpent Empire."
"Sigh, knowing exactly whose hands the Yun Lan Sect's heritage is in, yet being powerless to act, I have failed the ancestors of the Yun Lan Sect!"
Yun Shan, whose sense of responsibility was too strong, could only show a face full of self-blame at this moment.
However, at this time, the little Yun Yun by his side, after listening to her teacher narrate the history of the Yun Lan Sect, had a look of absolute determination on her face.
"Teacher, the heritage of the Yun Lan Sect, I will definitely reclaim it from the Sky Serpent Empire in the future!"
Little Yun Yun's tone was incredibly serious.
This was a responsibility belonging to every person of the Yun Lan Sect, and she was no exception.
"Good, Yun'er! That you have such ambition makes me very gratified!"
Seeing that he had fallen to the point of needing his own disciple to comfort him, Yun Shan immediately pulled back the look of loss from his face.
Now that they knew exactly whose hands the Yun Lan Sect's lost heritage was in, it was already a massive piece of good news. After all, compared to before, they at least had a target now, didn't they?
As long as there was a target, their Yun Lan Sect had a motivation to strive forward. Even if his generation couldn't do it, and the next generation couldn't either, there was still the generation after that!
One day, he believed the Yun Lan Sect would take back that lost heritage. However, the master and disciple pair of Yun Shan and Yun Yun did not know that the Yun Lan Sect's heritage had already fallen into Xiao Lin's hands.
Regarding this heritage that originally belonged to the Yun Lan Sect, Xiao Lin already had some ideas at this moment, though he had not yet put them into action.
"Oh, right, Xiao Lin, regarding the matter of you informing me where the Yun Lan Sect's lost heritage is, my Yun Lan Sect will definitely repay you. In the future, if your Xiao Family has any needs, feel free to come to the Yun Lan Sect to find me."
"Of course, if possible, regarding these past events of the Yun Lan Sect, I hope they will not be spread to outsiders. After all, although this doesn't involve the secrets of my Yun Lan Sect, it is ultimately not a very glorious matter."
After encouraging his disciple, Yun Shan seemed to remember something and suddenly spoke again.
Xiao Lin informing him that the Yun Lan Sect's lost heritage was in the hands of the Sky Serpent Empire's Imperial Family could indeed be called helping the Yun Lan Sect in a big way.
Although this help couldn't be used yet, the Yun Lan Sect had to acknowledge this favor!
At the same time, after thanking Xiao Lin, a trace of awkwardness appeared on Yun Shan's face when mentioning the past of the Yun Lan Sect.
Clearly, regarding this somewhat embarrassing matter, he did not want too many people to know.
"That is natural. Sect Master Yun Shan, please rest assured. Regarding today's matter, it comes from your mouth and enters my ears; absolutely no one else will ever know!"
Xiao Lin gave his guarantee at this time.
Furthermore, because of Yun Shan's straightforwardness in saying he would repay him, the idea Xiao Lin had in his heart earlier became even more firm.
Because, through another interaction with Yun Shan, he could already confirm that with Yun Shan's current character, he was indeed a person worth befriending!
Then, he wouldn't have to worry about his efforts going unrewarded. On Yun Shan's person, he did not see the word "ungrateful." At this point, the conversation between the two sides was actually almost finished.
However, Yun Shan, not knowing what he had thought of, suddenly spoke once more.
"There is one more thing. I wonder if you are interested, Xiao Lin?"
This sudden, mysterious sentence from Yun Shan directly left Xiao Lin dazed.
"Sect Master Yun Shan, you are referring to?"
To this, Xiao Lin naturally asked back directly.
"The Sect Grand Meeting of the Four Great Empires! That is, a battle held between my Jia Ma Empire and the surrounding Chu Yun Empire, Luo Yan Empire, and Mulan Empire."
"At that time, the Four Great Empires will jointly invite experts from the Sky Serpent Empire to host this competition. Although it is called a Sect Grand Meeting, in reality, all four of our empires can send people to participate."
"Regarding the next Sect Grand Meeting, the Four Great Empires have already decided: starting from the Dou Zhe realm with no upper limit, each realm will send three candidates to participate, and the rankings will be decided."
"In the end, the empire with the higher ranking will be able to obtain a larger share of the resources in the public border areas of the Four Great Empires. This is also another way to distribute resources among our Four Great Empires besides war."
"Of course, this can also be considered a way to gauge each other's strength. How about it, Xiao Lin? Are you interested in participating in the competition between Dou Wang?"
Regarding Xiao Lin's question, Yun Shan didn't hide anything and directly told him this information.
On the matter of selecting people for each realm, his Yun Lan Sect and the Jia Ma Empire's Imperial Family had been having a headache for a long time. Normally speaking, choosing a Nine-Star person for each realm was the most appropriate.
However, from the Dou Zhe to the Dou Ling stage, Nine-Star people were easy to select, but for the Dou Wang stage above that, it was hard to say.
The Four Great Empires were, after all, only mid-level empires; they simply couldn't find many Nine-Star Dou Wang within their borders. Therefore, settling for the next best thing, they could only choose people who were not yet Nine-Star.
Although Xiao Lin was currently exposed as only a Four-Star Dou Wang, for some reason, Yun Shan always felt that Xiao Lin's combat power was not that simple. It wasn't that Yun Shan suspected Xiao Lin's Four-Star Dou Wang realm was fake.
It's just that combat power, after all, is not the same as cultivation realm.
It was normal for some people to be able to fight above their level!
That was why Yun Shan asked if Xiao Lin was interested in participating in the Dou Wang competition of the Sect Grand Meeting.
"Sect Grand Meeting? Sect Master Yun Shan, could you explain in more detail?"
Hearing Yun Shan mention it, Xiao Lin vaguely remembered that the original story seemed to have such a thing as a Sect Grand Meeting. However, if he remembered correctly, in the original story, that was something that happened after the Yun Lan Sect was disbanded.
Subsequently, Yun Shan also introduced the matters of the Sect Grand Meeting to Xiao Lin in detail. It turned out that the Sect Grand Meeting between the Four Great Empires was held once every five years.
It was used to resolve disputed resource allocation issues and to gauge each other's strength.
Of course, every year's Sect Grand Meeting was different.
Just like the next one, the Four Great Empires had decided that each realm would send three contestants to determine the winner. With Yun Shan's explanation, Xiao Lin finally understood some information about the Sect Grand Meeting.
"Xiao Lin, you don't need to rush to give an answer. The next Sect Grand Meeting is still four years away. During this time, you can completely increase your strength a bit more."
"As long as you have an outstanding performance in the Grand Competition, when the Four Great Empires finish distributing the resources, you will certainly be able to obtain a significant portion yourself."
Seeing that Xiao Lin was a bit hesitant, Yun Shan smiled comfortingly.
It wasn't that he absolutely insisted Xiao Lin participate; he simply found Xiao Lin pleasing to the eye.
