Chapter 1569 He doesn't have this opportunity

Things were unexpectedly calm, and all the onlookers sat down and continued to eat breakfast.

After Pi Yangyang and the others sat down, Fan Gaoyi said respectfully, "Enjoy your meal, everyone. I have already eaten. I will take my leave now."

Lei Ting quickly stood up and said, "Thank you, Master Fan."

Fan Gaoyi just waved his hand and left.

Soon, Tie Niu, Lei Xianghong, and Lei Yuan came to bring breakfast. While eating breakfast, Pi Yangyang asked curiously, "Grandpa Lei, I saw that Peak Master Mu was disrespectful to you two just now, but seemed a little afraid of Peak Master Fan. Why is that?"

Lei Ting smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "The Wind and Thunder Hall and the Red Clothes House belong to the outer sects of the Jiuxuan Sect, specializing in handling ordinary Jianghu affairs, and have the lowest status in the entire sect. The Thirteen Peaks are the main gates of the Jiuxuan Sect, with the highest status. Below them are the nine major branches.

"That's why Peak Master Mu dared to disrespect us. However, the Thirteen Peaks are divided into the upper five peaks and the lower eight peaks. The upper five peaks are the five major peaks of Treasure, Jade, Gold, Silver, and Crystal. The lower eight peaks are the eight major peaks of Black, Red, Purple, Green, Yellow, Green, Blue, and White. Peak Master Fan is the peak master of the Jade Black Peak, while Peak Master Mu is only the peak master of the Green Black Peak. Therefore, in terms of rank, Peak Master Fan is higher than Peak Master Mu."

After listening to Lei Ting's introduction, Pi Yangyang suddenly understood.

"However, the Peak Master of Qingxuan Peak is notoriously domineering. Three years ago, he was just a deacon of the main temple. But the former Peak Master of Qingxuan Peak suddenly died, and he was promoted to become the Peak Master of Qingxuan Peak. Moreover, he is highly valued by the Chief Elder. Although he is only a Peak Master of the Lower Eight Peaks, in fact, the Peak Masters of the Upper Five Peaks generally do not provoke him."

Lei Ting continued.

There was a hint of annoyance in his tone.

Pi Yangyang couldn't help but curl his lips, "This is a typical example of a dog relying on the power of his master."

Wei Hongyi couldn't help but chuckle and said, "That's right."

Then, she said thoughtfully: "However, there have been rumors in the sect recently that the thirteen peak masters will be adjusted. During this meeting, this Peak Master Mu is very likely to be promoted to the top five peaks as the peak master."

Lei Ting couldn't help but say in astonishment: "If he enters the Upper Five Peaks, wouldn't he be even more arrogant?"

Pi Yangyang smiled softly, "He doesn't have that chance."

Lei Ting and Wei Hongyi looked at Pi Yangyang, then nodded at the same time and said, "That's right."

Just now, Peak Master Mu was blind and actually offended the leader of Jiuxuan Sect. How could he still have a chance to be promoted? I'm afraid he can't even keep his current position as Peak Master.

While having breakfast, several people came over to greet Lei Ting and Wei Hongyi.

Lei Ting also introduced them one by one, including some who were the masters of the Thirteen Peaks and some who were the masters of the Inner Nine Sects.

But Pi Yangyang never saw anyone from Xuanyi Sect and Yaoshen Valley.

But he could guess that these two branches probably didn't care about the power struggle within the Xuanmen, and it was possible that they would not come to attend the meeting.

Although he didn't ask, Lei Ting took the initiative to say, "Mr. Pi, seven of the nine branches have come, and only Xuanyi Sect and Yaoshen Valley have no one. However, this is also normal. These two sects have always been outside the sect. They only appear when the sect is defending against the enemy, to save the dying and the wounded."

Pi Yangyang said "hmm", it seems that his guess was correct.

"If Old Nine Master had not been kind to these two sects, they would not have been able to join the Jiuxuan Sect. Now that Old Nine Master is gone, even the sect elders' council may not be able to restrain them."

After a moment, Lei Ting spoke again thoughtfully.

Pi Yangyang was not surprised.

Xuanyi Sect and Yaoshen Valley were originally detached from the secular world and did not compete with the world. They just devoted themselves to studying medicine and refining medicine, and did not care about their status in the martial arts world.

However, the less they cared, the higher their status in the martial arts world, and even the Jiuxuan Sect's Council of Elders did not dare to give them a hard time.

After breakfast, they followed the crowd up the mountain.

Jiuxuan Peak is very steep, and many places are even dangerous places carved out vertically, which can only accommodate one person.

Coupled with the heavy snow for days and the icy roads, it is really impossible for ordinary people to get up.

However, people in the Jiuxuan Sect are at least warriors, so it is naturally not difficult for them.

Even those with low cultivation levels can climb up by grabbing the iron chains next to them.

Looking up, I saw the snow-covered mountain and the bright light, so I couldn't see the top of the mountain at all.

The long line winding along the mountainside looked quite spectacular.

Wei Hongyi was in front, Pi Yangyang followed behind, and Lei Ting protected behind.

Although they knew that with Pi Yangyang's level of cultivation, he didn't need anyone's protection, but this habit came from his bones and he did it naturally.

It took more than three hours to climb to the halfway point of the mountain.

There is also an inn on the mountainside, where lunch is prepared.

Everyone rested at the post station, ate and drank their fill, and then continued on their way up.

"It's said that the meeting will be held on the eighth day of the first lunar month, but in fact, we can only rush to the top of the mountain today. The real meeting will not start until tomorrow."

Lei Ting said as he climbed.

Sure enough, when we reached the top of the mountain, it was already sunset.

However, I didn’t expect that such a steep mountain would have an open area at the top.

It was like a towering mountain that was cut off at the end by a sword, and what appeared in front was a flat area.

Moreover, the buildings on the top of the mountain are also majestic and imposing, especially the three-story hall in the middle, which is magnificent and huge.

Even the dozen or so wooden pillars standing outside were huge trees that required three people to hug together.

Pi Yangyang couldn't help but wonder how these construction materials were transported up such a steep mountain road?

There are several rows of houses on both sides and behind the main hall, which are large in scale.

In front of the main hall is a huge square. In the middle of the square stands a three-meter-high white marble pillar, on top of which stands a statue with an immortal look.

"Everyone, please rest today. The formal meeting will begin tomorrow. Everyone's room has been arranged. Please follow the reception disciple to your room."

When everyone arrived at the square, a middle-aged man walked out of the hall and spoke loudly.

Immediately, dozens of disciples came out and led everyone to the room.

"Tonight should be a meeting between the thirteen peak masters and the nine branch masters, and tomorrow will be the whole sect meeting."

Lei Ting introduced.

Pi Yangyang responded calmly, then followed Lei Ting and others to the room on the right.

It was obvious that the disciple who received him thought he was a member of Fenglei Hall.

Their house was the last one, right next to the cliff.

Enter the room, open the window and look out, and you will see a huge cliff.

"Master Lei, there are many people attending the meeting this time, and the rooms are a bit tight. Your Fenglei Hall can only arrange two rooms. Please forgive me."

The reception disciple took them to the room and pointed to two adjacent rooms.

Lei Ting was stunned and said subconsciously: "Only two rooms? How can we live there?"

His granddaughter Lei Xianghong was also there. A girl couldn't live in the same room with a grown man, right?

If she took up a room, would Pi Yangyang and Lei Ting have to share one?

"I'm sorry, Master Lei, please overcome this."

Although he was respectful in receiving the disciples, his attitude was actually a bit stiff.

After all, he is a disciple of the main temple and is not afraid of an outer sect leader like Lei Ting.

"It's okay, Master Lei. I live alone anyway, so let Xiaohong live with me."

At this time, Wei Hongyi came out to rescue the situation.

Lei Ting finally breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully, "Thank you, Sect Master Wei."

In this way, he and Lei Yuan can share a room, and Pi Yangyang and Tie Niu can share a room, so they don't have to squeeze together.
