"Giggle giggle giggle!" A light and spirited laugh ca from afar, and soon two figures appeared before the crowd.
The representative from the Yin Yang Sect was a female Nascent Soul Ancestor, who seed full of charm. Yet upon closer observation, one could see the sense of ti in her eyes, marks left by the years.
"How co there is such a handso young man at this gathering?" The gaze of the female Nascent Soul Ancestor lingered on Li Yuanba’s face, her voice brimming with allure.
Li Yuanba’s aura surged, the divine light in his eyes almost tangible, as strands of an elder level Body Refinent aura radiated from his being.
He was resisting the charm of the Yin Yang Sect’s female Nascent Soul Ancestor. Fortunately, she had restrained herself, for there were many Nascent Soul Ancestors present. She had not used her full power to charm, allowing him to maintain his sense of self under her seduction.
"Ancestor Lan, are you preparing to start a battle?" Ancestor Lu asked in a stern voice.
Elder Sword was even more direct, his fierce Sword Intent already enveloping Ancestor Lan, ready to launch a full-force strike at any mont.
"There’s no need to be so tense; it was just a small joke!" Ancestor Lan Weiyan slightly moved to the side to dodge Elder Sword’s Sword Intent, laughing lightly as she spoke.
Even though Elder Sword had only recently ascended to the Nascent Soul Stage and hadn’t developed a strong combat power at that stage, it’s important to rember that as a Sword Cultivator, even a nascent Nascent Soul Stage Sword Cultivator is still a threat to other Nascent Soul Ancestors.
Not to ntion that Ancestor Lu was nearby. Should a fight break out, she feared she would be at a disadvantage.
Ancestor Lan Weiyan cast a sowhat regretful glance at Li Yuanba. She had never seen a man with his looks before.
For the female Nascent Soul Ancestor of the Yin Yang Sect, a male cultivator like Li Yuanba was precisely the type she desired.
"This is a disciple of Jian Wuwei. You would do well to put away those filthy thoughts, otherwise I would not mind having a fight with you!" Ancestor Lu warned sternly.
Elder Sword’s eyes also flashed with a fighting spirit. He had expected all the Nascent Soul Ancestors to be amicable and thought there would be no chance for a fight, but he had not anticipated Ancestor Lan Weiyan provoking him.
Sword Cultivators rely on battle to enhance themselves, and Elder Sword had recently mastered several secret techniques of the ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique’ appropriate for the Nascent Soul section. He was eager to find an opponent to test them.
As for his recent ascension and whether he could compare to the veteran Ancestor Lan Weiyan in terms of strength, he didn’t care. Without the ntality to face pressure, how could one possibly beco a good Sword Cultivator?
"You all are taking this too seriously!" Ancestor Lan Weiyan put away her thoughts and said with a laugh.
Her gaze once again fell on Li Shiming. Although not as handso as Li Yuanba, he was also very young.
To possess the cultivation level of the Golden Core Middle Stage at such an age made him a young hero worth making an acquaintance.
With her age, it was no problem for her to refer to Li Shiming and Li Yuanba as young n.
In the cultivation world, being in the forties is indeed still considered young. The lifespan of a Golden Core cultivator is five hundred years; the forties are just the beginning.
"Young man, would you like to join the Yin Yang Sect? I can betroth my daughter to you!" Ancestor Lan Weiyan looked at Li Shiming, gesturing towards the accompanying Great Elder female cultivator with a smile as she spoke.
She understood that all those who ca this ti were related to Nascent Soul Ancestors, so she had brought just a tinge of charm out of habit, without really using her Charming Secret Technique.
But as soon as these words left her mouth, all the Nascent Soul Ancestors present locked onto her, turning to see what Li Shiming’s reaction would be.
Ancestor Lan Weiyan was startled. Although she acted carefree, she was not a fool. Upon realizing sothing was off, she understood she might have provoked the wrong person.
"Ancestor Lan, Li Shiming is a disciple of the Shushan Sect and it’s not convenient for him to join the Yin Yang Sect!" Li Shiming said indifferently.
"Hehe, that’s what I thought, who else could be so young and promising besides Master Li!" Ancestor Lan Weiyan imdiately changed her tone, praising without a hint of seduction this ti.
However, her praise once again elicited strange looks from the cultivators present, as Li Yuanba was close in age to Li Shiming, roughly equal in cultivation, and even a bit higher in the realm.
Other than not being an Alchemy Master, Li Yuanba could compare to Li Shiming in terms of cultivation talent.
"That’s enough, everyone has arrived, let’s go inside!" Ancestor Lu, finding Ancestor Lan Weiyan’s conduct exasperating, still played the host and rounded off the incident.
Ancestor Lan Weiyan didn’t seem to care, which was a characteristic trait of the Yin Yang Sect—they didn’t pay much heed to outsiders’ opinions.
The group made their way to a place on the mountain top that had been prepared well in advance. The Nascent Soul Ancestors exchanged pleasantries for a while.
"Thank you, fellow Daoists, for attending the advancent ceremony of my disciple Jian Wuwei. Jian Wuwei has beco one of us and will join us in our efforts to maintain the stability of the Beishu Continent!" Ancestor Lu cleared his throat, waiting for the other Nascent Soul Ancestors to look over before he said in a deep voice.
"According to tradition, Jian Wuwei needs to demonstrate so of his power for everyone’s evaluation," he signaled Elder Sword, then continued.
The Nascent Soul Ancestors knew each other well and needed no undue formalities. Other than a few necessary steps, there was no need for extra words, so Ancestor Lu spoke very directly.
"I have paid my respects to all the fellow Daoists. My Lifebound Flying Sword has not yet recovered, and given the limited endurance of the Formation here, I will demonstrate my powers up to its limit!" Elder Sword said, bowing slightly to the other Nascent Soul Ancestors.
