"Junior sister Ningxi", the beauties from the Serene wood peak walked towards Zi Ningxi after the test was done. Zi Ningxi greeted them politely yet there was an uncertain look on her face as she didn't know the identities of the three beauties infront of her.

"Junior sister, I am Mu Yingying from the Serene wood peak. All of us are inner court disciples of the Xuantian sect. We have come here on the order of our master to pick you up", one of the three beauties spoke. Other two beauties also introduced themselves and looked towards Zi Ningxi.

"Senior sisters, can I have a moment? I want to say goodbye to my aunt and young master Chen before leaving with you", Zi Ningxi spoke. All the three beauties nodded their heads as they didn't have any problem in waiting for a while.

"Junior sister Ningxi, you have brought your aunt with you?", a beauty among the three asked with a curious expression on her face. "Yes, she is my aunt Nuan, the only sister of my royal father", Zi Ningxi replied.

"Royal father! Junior sister Ningxi, you are a princess?", another beauty asked with surprised expression on her eyes. All of them suddenly got more curious about Zi Ningxi.

Zi Ningxi introduced Zi Nuan to them and spoke briefly about the Red cloud kingdom. All the three beauties came to a decision among themselves and looked towards Zi Nuan. "Aunt Nuan, you can come with us. All inner court disciples are entitled to bring person close to them. So, you can come and stay with junior sister Ningxi", the three beauties spoke.

A look of expectation flickered in Zi Ningxi's eyes after she heard the words of her senior sisters. She looked towards Zi Nuan with a hopeful look on her face.

Zi Nuan smiled after seeing her niece like this. She also didn't want to be separated from her niece who was close to her since her birth. 'I was talking about leaving only because I don't want to trouble Zhan Chen. If I can stay with Ningxi then I can rethink my decision', she thought to herself.

"We need to first talk with the elders of the Serene wood peak. If they do not have any problem with my staying then I will cultivate in the Serene wood peak", Zi Nuan spoke.

Both aunt and niece bade farewell to Zhan Chen after coming to a decision. Zhan Chen looked towards the other girls after Zi Ningxi and Zi Nuan left.

-------------------

The emperors who had gathered for the test of Zhan Chen were talking among themselves when another powerful aura approached them from the distance. A hint of gentleness appeared in the eyes of the leading emperor after he sensed the powerful aura approaching them.

The powerful aura approached the group of emperors with a breathtaking speed and within few moments, the powerful aura materialized into a beautiful woman.

The woman had an attractive face and flawless skin but what would catch the attention of the onlookers was the robe she was wearing.

The robe was an ancient one with a five leaf symbol inscribed on it. The robe was torn in few places but the beautiful woman was still wearing it as if it was a treasure, she couldn't do away with.

"Wu Li, why are you here? Are not you planning to stay in the seclusion for few more days?", the leading emperor asked to the beautiful woman.

"Senior brother Deming, I am feeling disturbed in the last few days. I have tried to concentrate more than once but for some reason, I can't enter into the state of deep cultivation no matter how much I have tried", the beautiful woman spoke.

The other emperors greeted the beautiful woman after she finished her conversation with the leading emperor. The beautiful woman also greeted them back cordially and inquired about their well being.

"Elder brother Deming, we are taking our leave then. Junior sister Wu Li has come out of seclusion after few years. So, it is better to leave you two alone", the sole woman among the emperors spoke. The leading emperor nodded his head and all the emperors left the place one by one.

"Wu Li, it has been six years since you last left your seclusion. I want you to have a good break this time before you enter seclusion once again", the peak stage emperor spoke.

"Senior brother, you know my reason. The sole reason I am still breathing is only for revenge. I appreciate your concern but I will go back to seclusion once again after talking with you", the beauty in the ancient robe spoke.

"Wu Li, you always say the same thing whenever I push you for a break. But I am sure you will change your mind this time", the peak emperor spoke with a confident look on his face. The beauty in the ancient robe felt curious after seeing the confidence look on the peak emperor's face.

"Come with me", the peak emperor spoke and flew towards the distance. The beauty in the ancient robe hesitated for a moment before flying towards the direction of the peak emperor.

"Why can't I call you senior sisters?", Zhan Chen looked towards the five sword fairies with a curious look on his face. According to him, it was only normal that he would call someone senior who has higher age than him.

"It is not you who will call us senior sister. Rather, it is us who have to call you senior brother from now on", a beauty from the five sword fairies informed Zhan Chen. Zhan Chen found it funny after seeing the look of reluctance on sword fairies' faces.

"You don't have to call me senior brother if you don't like it. I am fine with junior brother or Zhan Chen whatever you like to call me", Zhan Chen spoke.

"You don't understand. Our sect has a strict hierarchey. An inner court disciple most show respect to a core disciple no matter how low the age of the core disciple is. It is the same for the outer court disciples as they have to show respect to us inner court disciples whenever they see us", the beauty from the five sword fairies informed. Zhan Chen could finally understand why they had such looks of unwillingness on their faces.

He was planning to say something to divert the topic when his expression suddenly changed. The next moment an imposing aura came towards the testing ground. Another imposing aura followed after the first and the attention of onlookers went towards the sky.

Two silhouettes appeared in the sky one after another. Zhan Chen felt surprised for a moment because he had met the leading expert during the grand sect competition. He shifted his gaze to the second expert and his focus immediately went towards the ancient robe she was wearing. 'Robe of my Zhan family!', he exclaimed to himself as a look of confusion appeared on his face.
