Chixue Sea Region.
After several months of repeated back-and-forth and negotiations, the Longevity Hall’s annexation of the Cangyu Islands finally concluded with the compromise and surrender of the last two Golden Core Masters.
In exchange, these two Golden Core Masters retained their status as Core Elders within the Longevity Hall and would enjoy the corresponding authority and resources.
Of course, the remaining subordinates of their True Lineages would be broken up and assigned to posts in remote territories. Only after serving the Sect for a certain number of years could they be transferred back to more prosperous regions.
From then on, the Cangyu Islands sect was officially disbanded in the Chixue Sea Region. All of its remaining Disciples, territories, and assets were absorbed into the Longevity Hall.
As the news spread, all the surrounding powers remained silent; none raised any objections to the Longevity Hall’s actions.
The Qi Family and the You Family were powerless to interfere with the Longevity Hall’s actions because they had suffered heavy losses, while the Nu Tao Sect and the Feng Family had always maintained a neutral, wait-and-see attitude, unwilling to stir up trouble.
As for the remaining few powers, they were relatively far away, and in such a delicate situation, they preferred to avoid getting involved.
By now, it was no secret that the supporter behind the Longevity Hall was the Ling Family of the Feiyu Sea Region.
Any power that wanted to make a move against the Longevity Hall had to consider the Ling Family’s stance.
Although the Ling Family’s publicly known number of Core Formation Cultivators was not large—not even comparable to the Li Long Continent in the Chixue Sea Region—no power dared to underestimate a family capable of dominating an entire sea region on its own.
Who knew if the Ling Family had an even greater backer? If they provoked so Nascent Soul power, it would be an unmitigated disaster.
Ultimately, after Liu Qianlan announced that the Sect would begin to recuperate and would engage in no further expansion, all the powers in the Chixue Sea Region accepted the new reality.
Another month passed. Once the Sect was completely stabilized internally, Liu Qianlan personally traveled to the Changqing Continent to visit her disciple, Liu Xiuyan.
At this ti, Liu Xiuyan’s accumulation had reached Great Perfection. Under Ling Changqing’s protection, she had once again entered seclusion. After dissolving her True Pill, she was attempting another breakthrough to the Golden Core Master Realm.
Normally, not only was this process extrely draining, but it was also undeniably dangerous. However, with Ling Changqing guarding her, the entire process was fraught with peril but ultimately safe.
By the ti Liu Qianlan had t with Ling Qiyue, the Patriarch’s Wife, and appeared before Ling Changqing, Liu Xiuyan’s seclusion was nearing its end.
「In the Cave Mansion Hall.」
"...Husband, has Xiu Yan... has she succeeded?"
The incomparably beautiful woman—alluring and enchanting, dressed in a sky-blue, flowing gown patterned with floral clouds, a golden, tasseled hairpin glinting in her cloud-like chignon, her skin whiter than snow—asked timidly, her expression filled with anxiety.
In truth, she didn’t need Ling Changqing’s answer. One look at the huge, stable Spiritual Energy Vortex above the Cave Mansion was enough to know that fortune was truly smiling on Liu Xiuyan this ti.
Ling Changqing looked at her and said gently, "No need to worry. Xiu Yan should achieve a Top grade Golden Core Dao Fruit this ti. As long as she doesn’t encounter any calamities in the future, reaching the Nascent Soul True Monarch Realm is well within reach!"
Any Female Cultivator who had an intimate relationship with Ling Changqing would experience a transformative, rebirth-like change to their Spirit Root Talent and Life Chart and Fate, so such a result was not surprising.
Back then, the hopes of Tang Qiu Yao, Qin Yun, Ling Bingyun, and the others for breaking through to the Golden Core Master Realm were slim. However, with the blessing of Ling Changqing’s Destiny, they all succeeded as they had hoped.
It could be said that whoever Ling Changqing was willing to be intimate with had a chance to change their fate.
"That’s wonderful!"
Liu Qianlan breathed a sigh of relief and sat down gracefully across from him. Her lustrous, beautiful eyes studied the handso youth in magnificent purple robes, whose eyes were as dark as lacquer and whose bearing was regal. Suddenly, her beautiful, jade-like face flushed as red as a sunset cloud.
’Since he’s fulfilled all his promises, does that an from now on, this man is my... Dao Companion? The husband whom my disciple and I will serve for the rest of our lives?’
’It feels so embarrassing, but for the sake of my cultivation path, it doesn’t seem unacceptable.’
’At the very least, he won’t treat poorly.’
Ever since she’d embarked on the path of Cultivation, Liu Qianlan had always been alone. She had never had a Dao Companion and was accustod to facing all her challenges by herself.
Now, committing herself to Ling Changqing, she felt a profound sense of security deep in her heart that she had never known before, a feeling she found quite comforting.
After so thought, Liu Qianlan said in a low voice, "I brought two female cultivators at the Foundation Establishnt Peak with this ti. They are my most trusted subordinates. Would you like to et them?
If you find them satisfactory, you don’t have to rush into seclusion. You can have them co and serve you right away!"
Ling Changqing had previously given her a set of Core Formation Resources. She had gathered so Spirit Stones on her own and intended to purchase another set from him, so that these two trusted subordinates could attempt to break through to the Core Formation Realm.
’However, given their talent and luck, they would likely only manage to beco Pseudo Core Cultivators. Whether they could form a True Pill would depend on sheer luck.’
’Fortunately, those two female cultivators have decent talent and looks, and they are both virgins. Perhaps they’ll have a chance to be chosen by Ling Changqing?’
Ling Changqing asked, slightly surprised, "Are you willing to part with them?"
Liu Qianlan’s jade-like face flushed slightly as she shot him a coquettish glare. "Since you’re so capable, Husband, you might as well take in a few more!"
Besides considering the futures of her two trusted subordinates, Liu Qianlan was also thinking that as newcors, she and her disciple would be sowhat isolated and helpless in Ling Changqing’s harem. It would naturally be good to have a couple more allies.
’Hmm, there are quite a few single female cultivators within the Longevity Hall. There seem to be several more with presentable looks and talent. Should I arrange for all of them to co over for this guy to take a look?’
