In the vast expanse of purple aura, an elder dressed in black strode forth, grasping a horsetail whisk. His gaze was imposing, and with each step, the sun and moon seemed to rise and fall behind him, his Dharma Aspect frequently emerging.
As the Purple Willow Ancestor entered the hall, the hearts of the cultivators rose to their throats; those obstructing his sight promptly sidestepped.
Suddenly.
The Purple Willow Ancestor halted his steps, furrowing his brows. He immediately raised his hand in salute to the front, bending down, and said, "Greetings, Celestial Emperor, why are you here?"
His previously stern demeanor was now replaced by a look of embarrassment.
His Dao practice was inferior to Hongqian Ancestor's, so he hadn't sensed Hongqian Ancestor's presence. Upon seeing Hongqian Ancestor, he was greatly startled, but having weathered many storms, he steadied his mindset.
