Chapter 1953: Chapter 1952: Do Not Be Hasty, My Lord
At this moment, Wang Ye had already returned to Tianyong Mountain.
His eyes were bright, radiating True Light.
Yet he felt incredibly tired.
Although he became the Alliance Hierarch at this conference, it cost him a lot of mental energy.
Every step required careful planning.
Otherwise, how could the ten Elders have supported him?
Moreover, he did not gain any benefit from the trip to the Blackwater Secret Realm.
So what if he became the Alliance Hierarch?
It only granted him more authority.
For others, becoming the Alliance Hierarch is certainly a cause for celebration.
After all, as the Alliance Hierarch, one could act with impunity, doing as they please.
Countless beauties and wealth would naturally follow.
The first thing many people do upon becoming the Alliance Hierarch is to choose concubines or seize others’ wealth.
But Wang Ye had no such intentions.
Instead, he pondered how to make the Blackwater Secret Realm rise again.
However, making a weak Blackwater Secret Realm strong was no easy task.
It would inevitably require more effort and energy.
Just the thought brought on a wave of weariness.
Moreover, even if you diligently served as the Alliance Hierarch, many would still gossip.
Some people are naturally inclined to criticize others.
Wang Ye exhaled deeply.
He shrugged helplessly and headed toward the Heavenly God Residence.
The Heavenly God Residence was surrounded by Spirit Trees and Spirit Bamboo, with pavilions made of White Crystal Cold Jade inside.
As soon as he stepped into the Heavenly God Residence, Wang Ye felt much more at ease.
At that time, Chu Mingyue had already noticed his return.
Seeing Wang Ye so weary.
She felt a bit of heartache, knowing the Sect Master had worked hard.
"Sect Master, the bath is ready. Please, have a good rest."
Chu Mingyue knew Wang Ye well.
She knew Wang Ye was someone who would never forget his home.
For Wang Ye, the Heavenly God Residence was his home.
Wang Ye nodded with a smile.
Then he went into the room and jumped into the bath with a splash.
In the bath, flowers floated on the surface, including peach blossoms and orchids.
With a gentle inhale, he immediately felt refreshed.
Wang Ye lay in the pool, slowly closing his eyes.
The water, infused with Spiritual Medicine and flower scents, washed over his tired nerves and meridians.
Gradually, he began to relax.
Eventually, he fell asleep.
Since the water in the pool was kept at a constant temperature, he didn’t feel cold even while sleeping in it.
Chu Mingyue, seeing that Wang Ye hadn’t come out of the room for a long time, felt a bit curious.
She gently pushed the door open and saw that Wang Ye had already fallen asleep.
"The Sect Master is truly exhausted."
She approached the edge of the pool and took some petals from a bamboo basket, scattering them onto the water’s surface.
She extended a finger to test the water’s temperature.
The water temperature was just right.
She looked up and saw that a window was open.
Although it was spring and the chill had left the wind.
This year’s spring was especially cold, especially here at Tianyong Mountain.
Tianyong Mountain was already colder than other places.
"With the window open, an evil wind might blow in."
She raised an eyebrow.
Like a nimble rabbit, she leapt up lightly.
She came to the window and gently closed it.
Only then did she tiptoe out of the room, careful not to disturb the sleeping Wang Ye.
When Wang Ye awoke, the sky was filled with stars.
By then, he felt all his weariness had been washed away.
His eyes regained their lustre.
He stood up and changed into clean clothes.
Then he went to the dressing table.
At this moment, Chu Mingyue and Yun’er both entered the room.
Chu Mingyue helped Wang Ye comb his long hair.
While Yun’er poured a cup of tea for Wang Ye.
Wang Ye sniffed lightly and caught a whiff of fragrance.
Of course, the scent wasn’t from flowers or plants but from the two ladies.
Smelling this scent, Wang Ye immediately felt refreshed.
He let Chu Mingyue comb his long hair.
While in his heart, he pondered some matters.
Soon he would leave Tianyong Mountain.
Before departing, he needed to settle everything at Tianyong Mountain.
The most important thing now is to choose the new Sect Master and Zuo Sect Leader.
Thinking of his accomplishments at Tianyong Mountain, Wang Ye felt quite proud.
Who knows what achievements the next Sect Master might make at Tianyong Mountain.
With a flick of his hand, Wang Ye couldn’t help but pull Chu Mingyue into his embrace.
Chu Mingyue blushed and trembled slightly.
"Sect Master!"
"Hmph, it’s unfair. The Sect Master only bullies Chu Mingyue, but not me."
Yun’er said unhappily.
Wang Ye, seeing this, looked rather helpless.
He released Chu Mingyue.
"Okay, I won’t bully anyone."
Furthermore, Wang Ye didn’t have the energy to bully Chu Mingyue at the moment.
The bright moon hung high.
Wang Ye had gone back to his room to rest.
By then, the seven Peak Masters had also returned to Tianyong Mountain.
The journey back and forth had left them feeling a bit tired.
They returned to their respective main peaks to rest.
However, that night, the seven Peak Masters found it hard to sleep.
Xia Yurou thought, now that Wang Ye had become the Alliance Hierarch, he probably wouldn’t stay at Tianyong Mountain permanently.
It’s possible the Sect Master would take everyone to Blackwater City.
If so, Tianyong Mountain would be without the Sect Master and the seven Peak Masters.
Perhaps tomorrow, the Sect Master would reselect a new Sect Master.
Thinking of this, Xia Yurou felt a bit expectant.
She was curious to see if Tianyong Mountain had produced any new talents and prodigies.
Dongfang Qing had remained at Tianyong Mountain, spared from the ordeal of travel, so he had always looked relaxed.
The night deepened.
He stood on the pavilion.
Catching a song carried by the spring wind.
"Our Tianyong Mountain is truly rich with talent, for someone to play such beautiful music."
A proud smile appeared at the corner of Dongfang Qing’s mouth.
Shortly after, he was about to go find the source of the song.
At that moment, Elder Black Dragon appeared behind him.
"Elder Black Dragon, what is it?"
Dongfang Qing had reached an extraordinary level of skill.
Even without turning around, he could sense that the person behind him was Elder Black Dragon.
"A man named Nangong Ren has brought a young woman named Miss Luoye to the foot of Tianyong Mountain."
"Nangong Ren wants to offer the young woman to the Sect Master. I see that Miss Luoye is quite beautiful, perhaps the Sect Master would be interested."
Elder Black Dragon chuckled.
Dongfang Qing upon hearing this, smiled with a hint of mischief.
"Do you really think our Sect Master is like that?"
"Our Sect Master is not a trafficker, nor is he that bad."
Dongfang Qing’s eyes flickered.
Even as he spoke, he felt a bit uncertain.
After all, people can change; who knows if the Sect Master might become corrupt?
But even if the Sect Master became corrupt, he wouldn’t accept such a girl.
After all, Tianyong Mountain is filled with countless beauties.
If the Sect Master were to choose, it would be someone from Tianyong Mountain rather than an unknown girl.
Elder Black Dragon sighed inwardly, seeming to say that the Sect Master would miss out on a beauty again.
"Alright, I’ll go to tell Nangong Ren that our Sect Master doesn’t need it."
Elder Black Dragon turned away.
