Returning to the sect, Elder Jing informed Dai Feng and Yang Wei to wait in their courtyard.
"Yang Wei, practice your techniques at the moment." Elder Jing said as she left them alone.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
"Yang Wei, we still have a bit of a problem in our hands right?" Dai Feng then said when he saw Elder Jing's presence was gone.
"You mean the fact that you cross-dress?" Yang Wei replied in a low tone.
"Damn it Yang Wei- I didn't know you could be so ruthless." Dai Feng cursed as he clenched his fist. "You didn't have to do me dirty like that when all I wanted was free lunch."
Yang Wei shrugged his shoulders. "Would you have preferred it if I called for Shen Zhiming instead?"
"Of course you should choose Shen Zhiming over me."
"But Shen Zhiming doesn't have the charm to seduce men."
"Hmm, you're right about that." Dai Feng pondered as he started showing his figure around. "Shen Zhiming's figure is trash when compared to my heavenly figure."
Yang Wei chuckled as he glanced at Dai Feng in amusement. "Look at you- you admitted yourself as the best candidate for crossdressing."
Dai Feng turned ashen as he realized he had fallen into Yang Wei's trap once again.
Dai Feng gnashed his teeth as he grumpily ran away in anger. He was too agitated to be in the mood to fight with Yang Wei through words.
"Yang Wei, we shall fight in the arena." He shouted from afar before vanishing from sight.
Yang Wei was dumbfounded. 'Arena? Oh right- Dai Feng probably didn't know that I'm already an inner disciple.'
Elder Jing had given him the inner disciple token since she was sure he wouldn't have any problem in defeating the outer disciples. Thus, she didn't bother wasting time and directly handed him the token when they were waiting for Dai Feng.
Yang Wei retrieved the inner disciple token from his sleeve and admired it for a brief moment.
Sometime later, Yang Wei headed back to his outer courtyard to pack his things.
It was a smooth journey, unlike last time where the courtyard was filled with a bunch of people since almost all the outer disciples have left to the arena to fight for their position.
After packing his belongings, Yang Wei prepares to head off to Elder Jing's courtyard.
Now that he became an inner disciple, it means that he had officially become a part of the sect and his relationship with Elder jing was never really a secret among the higher-ups.
While Yang Wei was making himself comfortable in Elder Jing's courtyard, Elder Jing herself is currently in an emergency meeting with Kong Yusheng and the other sect elders.
"Elder Jing, are you sure that there are multiple Nascent Soul realm cultivators fighting against the Tornado White Tiger in the Misty Forest?" One of the sect elders asked.
"Indeed, my eyesight isn't bad like yours and I wouldn't have initiated an emergency meeting without confirming the fact." Elder Jing replied swiftly as she glanced at Kong Yusheng.
"Sect Leader Kong, I believe we should give this intel to the Phoenix Sky Sect and let them deal with this problem." She added.
"What are you saying?"Elder Tan shouted. "If we tell this to the Phoenix Sky Sect then wouldn't that means our sect is incompetent to handle any crisis."
"I'll say- Elder Tan must be senile now." Another voice suddenly echoed.
The elders became dumbfounded to see it was Elder Shan interrupting once again and helping Elder Jing out.
Elder Tan held a darkened expression as he stared at Elder Shan. "What do you mean by that, Elder Shan? I'm talking to Elder Jing and not you."
Elder Shan covered her mouth as she giggled softly. "Didn't you also interrupted when Elder Jing was talking to Sect Leader Kong?"
Elder Tan shuddered at her fiery remark. "Hmph, I was merely giving my opinion out."
"So am I." Elder Shan spatted.
"Unless you think you are more important than the sect leader then please don't try to shut my mouth." She added.
Elder Tan crossed his arms as he leaned back on the chair, indicating that he would not stop her from giving out an opinion or suggestion.
Elder Shan smirked as she glanced at every sect elders in the meeting. "I know we all wanted to prove our strength in the upcoming sect tournament but don't forget- we are still a third-rate sect at the moment."
Everyone nodded their heads.
Elder Shan smiled at their agreement so she continued, "Hence, why are we trying to handle a possible dangerous conspiracy and weaken our strength? Just dump this task to someone capable."
Elder Shan then winked at Elder Jing.
Elder Jing snickered as she stood up. "Well- since Elder Shan took the words from my mouth then this should be the end of this emergency meeting. However, I want to have the sect closed off- meaning no one is allowed to leave or enter the sect as of this moment."
Kong Yusheng smiled at Elder Jing's decision. "Elder Jing is correct and I agree with her decision."
The other sect elders could only nod their heads in agreement since the sect leader had already spoken.
Even the usual Elder Tan that loved to argue with Elder Jing kept quiet this time and agreed with their words.
"Anyway, Elder Jing, what about the inner disciple exam now that the Misty Forest expedition is canceled?" Kong Yusheng suddenly said.
"Elder Kun is currently being the judge in the arena near the Martial Hall where the outer disciples are competing against each other." Elder Jing replied.
Kong Yusheng wanted to ask for more details but Elder Jing had quickly left the meeting room with one final word.
"You can communicate with Elder Kun for more details, Sect Leader Kong. Elder Kun is the one handling the process now whereas I have more important things to do.""
Kong Yusheng could only smile bitterly at her. 'Sigh, this lass is probably rushing to meet her lover.'
