Chapter 780 - 770 The Great Jiazi Ceremony
Inside the Temple of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, there were not many people. Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong sat in the center, flanked by Grand Commander Jio Yuanxiu, Vice Sect Hierarch Yao Sen, Tian Guizhang, Fengh Qingyue, Nian Xinghe, and two high-ranking members of the Divine Sect whom Ye Zhen did not recognize. The atmosphere was solemn.
When Ye Zhen appeared, Fengh Qingyue’s pretty face suddenly showed a trace of a smile, and she winked at Ye Zhen. This scene was naturally caught by Jian Qianxiong, sitting in the middle. Although Jian Qianxiong’s expression did not change, his eyes were somewhat complicated.
In addition, Jio Yuanxiu, Yao Sen, Nian Xinghe, and the two high-ranking officials unknown to Ye Zhen, including Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong, all looked tired, clearly having been working tirelessly these past days.
Seeing Ye Zhen enter, Vice Sect Hierarch Tian Guizhang repeatedly showed goodwill toward him, almost fawning over him on the spot.
He couldn’t help it, as he truly regretted it now.
He had not expected that Ye Zhen would have such fortune. Over the past few days, he had learned the ins and outs of the matter and had basically understood the specific role Ye Zhen played in it.
Thus, he almost regretted it to his core.
If Ye Zhen had informed him of this matter, and he had reported it to the Sect Leader, his position in the Sun and Moon Divine Sect might have been thoroughly solidified, and he could have even planned to expand his influence within the sect.
However, due to his previous stance in the palace coup incident, he completely fell out with Ye Zhen, losing this opportunity.
Not only that, but because of his erroneous advice when the Sect Leader made his decision that day, people began to doubt his ability, and he was sidelined. In contrast, Yao Sen, who had been somewhat ostracized, was now again receiving significant attention and was even leading sect members on an expedition, while he was left only with the useless title of coordinator.
