"Valley Master Chen, please forgive my sudden visit." Ye Juming clasped his hands, his voice booming from on high. "I heard that Jinyun Valley is holding its sect competition. As a fellow major clan of Yunzhou, how could we be absent? I wonder if the Valley Master welcomes my presence?"
"Even the Ye Family came to show their support? They're a Golden Core Race..."
"This is incredible. They didn't even show up for the Foundation Establishment ceremony last time. It seems Jinyun Valley is truly flourishing, to the point that even the Ye Family has come to give them face."
The lower-level Loose Cultivators were unaware of the dirty dealings among the upper echelons. They thought the visitors had genuinely come to show support and were all delighted.
However, some were puzzled:
"The Ye Family? If they were sincere, they would have arrived early. What's the meaning of showing up halfway through?"
