Chapter 301 Opportunities
While they were on a tour through the sect, lodgings were prepared for the new members, and their sect robes were ordered to be made with the sewing shops in the closest merchant city.
Once the preparations were made, they were led by Wu Long to the Administrative Hall to receive their Sect Member Badges and keys opening the formations that locked the doors of their lodgings. Wu Long noted that all of them were quite conveniently arranged to live close to each other, and not far from Ye Ling's living quarters. Likely a consideration from Lian Zhiqiu which he was quite grateful for.
And while Gong Liwei was considered a disciple, she was allowed to stay with her younger sister who, due to being in the Revolving Qi Realm became a Sect Elder.
While he was waiting for the ladies to finish he was approached by an unfamiliar Sect Elder.
"Disciple Wu, can I have a moment of your time?"
"No"
"..."
The Sect Elder almost choked on his next words as he did not expect this reply. It was common sense that this question was pure formality, and answering it negatively completely threw the man off.
"I..."
"You can't"
When the stunned Sect Elder tried to continue the conversation Wu Long translated the meaning of his previous reply, and turned to leave.n--o.-v-/e(-l-)b(-1-/n
"G-Grand Elder Zheng wishes to talk to you"
The man panicked and exclaimed to his back but Wu Long went off without turning.
"Who answers rhetorical questions with 'no'...?"
He finally couldn't help but say with lost expression as he watched Wu Long leave the building with his women.
---
"He refused?"
Grand Elder Zheng asked with irritation. He and the Vice Palace Master sat in the same hall they usually were meeting in, as the Sect Elder who just an hour ago asked Wu Long for a moment of his time stood to the side in a respectful bow, at the exact spot Zheng Huang once kneeled in.
"Y-Yes"
The Elder did not dare to say that it was technically his question that made the conversation end before he could even get into the main topic.
"Tch, leave"
Grand Elder Zheng clicked his tongue in frustration, his eyes filled with visible panic while Vice Palace Master Liu Zuming still swirled around the wine in his wine cup with a calm look, appreciating the sparkles on the surface as light of the lanterns illuminating the room reflected from it.
"W-What are we going to do, Brother Liu?"
Once the door closed behind the Sect Elder, Grand Elder Zheng asked with an agitated voice, his wine cup on the table as he did not have the mind to taste it.
"Irrelevant, if he is not on board we can just approach the women directly. This was just a courtesy, it is not our fault he did not appreciate it. So instead of handing over some of the women, he would lose them all, along with his life. Even if those women are in the Foundation Building Realm, they are after all women, you just have to know the right approach. And if some of them will be stubborn, I will deal with them myself"
"But... that Wu Long disposed of several Revolving Qi Realm Elders I sent when he was in Qi Gathering Realm, now that he is at the peak Qi Manifestation Realm..."
"Must I remind you that the gap between the Realms gets bigger the higher the Realm? Realm Suppression is not a toy. Besides, you know that those you sent were not exactly 'warriors'. Heh, remember, the plan involves dealing with Lian Zhiqiu, did you really think I would not be prepared to deal with a boy in Qi Manifestation Realm even if he was a tad stronger than average?"
Liu Zuming said with a glint of anticipation in his eyes.
"The preparations are almost over, you do not have to think, just do as I say. As for that disciple... he just lost the only opportunity we gave him to survive by joining our cause, how wasteful"
He then continued on and downed his wine cup, closing his eyes to savor the taste, as sweet as the taste of the victory he was already relishing.
In his view, years of meticulous planning and preparations would not fail in the face of an unexpected minor factor such as Wu Long, and even a major change like the arrival of several Foundation Building Realm women did not faze him, for they could be powerful allies instead.
"Leave this matter to others, and worry about getting that couple to hand over the technique instead. If you cannot get even that done I will seriously start to doubt I even need you at all"
Grand Elder Zheng shuddered at the Vice Palace Master's next words while he poured more wine for the latter.
"Of course, please be reassured..."

Wu Long sat with Ye Ling and Hua Ziyan in a room that usually oversaw the view of Spiritual Land below the mountain with big windows on two sides. The view was covered by a curtain of rain and the sounds of the raindrops hitting the roof tiles was making the atmosphere in the intimately lit room cozy as the stark contrast between the warm inside and cold, windy outside intensified the comfort. The two beauties sat on his sides on the same large and soft sofa as they softly talked.
"Hehe, you managed to catch Master's interest for sure"
Ye Ling chuckled as she finished recounting the conversation in Lian Zhiqiu's office.
"Yes, it seems I will be studying new techniques soon, I asked Master to let Mingyu study as well"
Hua Ziyan said while chuckling as a light of anticipation ran through her eyes. It was quite easy to persuade the Palace Master since a brilliant Dao cultivator learning the techniques would spare her from having to explain and teach, something she did not look forward to.
"We were just discussing plans while touring the sect as well, I wanted to ask you to go with Mingyu who wanted to visit her family and Yi'er in the Fantian Kingdom while I visit the Imperial Capital. I will be going there after"
"There shouldn't be any problem with that. We will return to the sect after that trip anyway so learning the techniques at that time would not be late"
Ye Ling nodded with a light smile on her lips.
"Speaking of which, I did learn something new already though"
She then smiled as she placed her hand on his lap, from the side.
"Me too, I was impatient to see Master's secret technique collection"
Hua Ziyan smiled as well, placing hers on his other lap from the other side. The two spent considerable time in their Master's office studying, thus only coming back near the evening.
He smiled at the two beauties and talismans flew out of his hand, sealing off the room that already had formations with stronger ones. He did not want to deny them the opportunity to practice.
