Chapter 130: Chapter 128: Explanation
The so-called mutual glory and splendor, in fact, refers to resource sharing and reasonable distribution.
Just like the situation with the Cyan Mountain Sect, even though some elders covet the position of Sect Leader, when facing external enemies, they remain united.
Among the three Immortal Sects of the Yunlan Domain, resources are actually not much different.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, it is impossible to pry away the core figures from each other.
Even if there is temporary great profit, this great profit will never last long. Those who have grown old and wise will not be so shortsighted.
On the contrary, due to disloyal behavior, they might not receive respect and attention even after moving over.
Therefore, no one can understand what exactly the Hundred Sword Sect promised to Yun Danzi that made him so reckless and desperate.
Of course, mutual glory and splendor require time to accumulate.
A person newly joining an Immortal Sect cannot immediately and quickly develop a sense of identity with it.
Liu Zixiao did not let Qin Yu leave but arranged for him to stay in a residence within the City Lord’s Mansion.
It’s better to be cautious.
If the people from the Hundred Sword Sect or the Demon Sect found out that Qin Yu was received, they might not refrain from intervening halfway.
Now the Cyan Mountain Sect, due to certain reasons, indeed lacks the heritage of the Hundred Sword Sect and the Demon Sect.
Therefore, he called that Inner Sect Steward to personally go to Danxin Herb Hall to invite Qin Yu’s family.
After all, Qin Yu’s talent had already been verified. This time, the formation was naturally extraordinary, with over a hundred Inner Sect Disciples from the Cyan Mountain Sect opening the way and the Steward leading the team, reaching the front of Danxin Herb Hall.
Previously, some people were dissatisfied due to Yin Qinghe’s cold and distant attitude, gossiping privately with many complaints.
After all, it hadn’t even begun yet. An insignificant junior cultivator could be...
Not quite committing an offense, though.
If it was an offense, could the Immortal Sect Steward be so amiable?!
As a result, in such a short moment, over a hundred cultivators from the Immortal Sect appeared, and instantly, all the clamor and resentment turned into nothingness, plunging the entire scene into unprecedented silence.
Immediately, they witnessed an unforgettable scene of their lifetime.
The esteemed Steward in the Immortal Sect invited Yin Qinghe, Zhao Mengli, and two other young women they had never seen before out.
Notice, the word used was "invite."
This wasn’t to say Qin Yu’s status had exceeded that of the Steward after becoming a Core Disciple, but it was at the request of Liu Zixiao.
Moreover, knowing Qin Yu’s talent, the Steward also intended to form closer ties, as he might need to seek elixirs from them in the future.
Seeing the high and mighty Steward’s courteous attitude towards Yin Qinghe, the attendees vaguely guessed some things.
It must be that the new disciple taken in by Yin Qinghe was greatly valued by the Cyan Mountain Sect!
In the future, with this layer of backing, Danxin Herb Hall could truly rest easy in Lin Xian City, with no one daring to lay a finger on it.
They initially thought that Yin Qinghe was only invited to bid farewell to the new disciple, but unexpectedly, after leaving the herb shop, Yin Qinghe stopped.
"Xu An, from now on, this place is entrusted to you." She finally entrusted the herb shop to the loyal shopkeeper.
Afterward.
Yin Qinghe didn’t communicate with anyone else, nor did she care about their speculations, as she followed the Steward towards the City Lord’s Mansion.
Perhaps only Zhao Mengli, whose hand she was holding, could sense that the mistress was both excited and nervous.
Nervous about what...
Of course, she was afraid that these people would find out that she had become the disciple’s family member.
...
After properly arranging everything, Liu Zixiao returned to her residence, impatiently taking out the Sound Transmission Stone to report Qin Yu’s matter to Sect Leader Su Xihe.
However, after she finished speaking, there was silence on the other side.
"Sect Leader?"
Liu Zixiao was puzzled.
Shouldn’t the Sect Leader be surprised, shocked, and incredulous at this time?!
Why was there no response, such a calm reaction?
After a while, a rather worried voice finally came from Su Xihe on the other side of the Sound Transmission Stone: "Zixiao, could it be that something went wrong with your cultivation?"
Liu Zixiao: "..."
What is this all about?
What does it have to do with her cultivation?!
However, she quickly reacted, "Sect Leader, are you doubting me?"
"What do you think?"
Su Xihe continued somewhat discontentedly, "A cultivator from Lin Xian City, bone age thirty, with Spiritual Power at the high tier of initiation? Why don’t you say he has a Dao Bone?!"
Such a probability is impossible to appear.
Furthermore, it’s not like all the good things should come to the Cyan Mountain Sect.
"..."
Liu Zixiao was not too surprised, though, as she wouldn’t have believed that there was such a person hiding in Lin Xian City if Su Xiyue hadn’t personally approached her at that time.
"This was discovered by our Saintess. If you don’t believe it, you might as well go to her for confirmation!"
She also deeply understood that if not witnessed personally, it was indeed hard to convince anyone. So, she straightforwardly pushed the matter to Su Xiyue.
"Hmm."
Su Xihe gave a faint response and then hung up the Sound Transmission Stone.
Although she, as the Sect Leader, had been quite pleased recently, the doubts in her heart were not any less.
Originally, she planned to inquire carefully after Su Xiyue returned.
But if what Liu Zixiao said was true, this matter also had significant implications and needed to be confirmed.
The light tremor of the Sound Transmission Stone stirred subtle ripples in Su Xiyue’s originally serene mind.
Though she had thought of an explanation, no matter how it was explained, or what reasons were given, Su Xihe would inevitably harbor suspicions in his heart.
"Xiyue, when do you plan to set out?"
However, Su Xihe did not directly bring up Qin Yu, instead, she was concerned about when she would return to the Immortal Sect.
"Within these next two days."
This question had been asked of Su Xiyue countless times, yet there was not a trace of impatience, and each time she replied patiently.
"That will do."
Su Xihe finally broke into a relieved smile, as if a heavy burden had been lifted, radiating feelings of ease and joy.
As long as Su Xiyue was not returned, her mind could not be at ease.
It’s soon!
Afterward, she expressed a few more concerns before shifting the topic to Qin Yu.
"Zixiao mentioned that you discovered a promising talent in Lin Xian City?"
"Mm."
Su Xiyue’s calm response made Su Xihe slightly pause, could it be that Liu Zixiao’s words were not false?
This...
Could there really be such a fortuitous thing happening right before the Cyan Mountain Sect?!
This certainly was great news only second to Su Xiyue’s breakthrough to the Golden Core. If they could indeed recruit him, he would surely become one of the pillars of the Immortal Sect in the future.
"Xiyue, how did you discover him?" Su Xihe asked tentatively.
Just so you know, Su Xiyue had never paid attention to the core disciples of the Inner Sect of the Cyan Mountain Sect, so why would she pay heed to a junior cultivator in the Loose Cultivator City without any reason?!
"Xian Feast."
Su Xiyue repeated the explanation she had given Liu Zixiao.
"Oh."
Su Xihe responded.
This reason, though barely plausible, was acceptable, right?
Otherwise, what other reason could there be, she couldn’t have possibly met that junior cultivator in a night-time rendezvous, could she?!
