"Then you must make a promise.
The allied forces must be stronger than the Fire Serpent Sect," Sect Master Bai remained silent for a long ti before she spoke.
She finally conceded.
In her heart, the Immortal Palace is paramount.
Before her master's passing, he entrusted the Immortal Palace to her.
Sect Master Bai grew up in the Immortal Palace and holds deep affection for it.
Reviving the Immortal Palace is nearly her lifelong wish and dream.
So the burden on her shoulders is indeed heavy.
"Don't worry, there are not one or two, but thousands stronger than the Fire Serpent Sect," Xu Zii waved his hand.
"Maid Bai, brew a pot of tea to try."
Sect Master Bai paused for a mont before saying, "I'll go to the room to fetch so tea leaves and tea sets."
Xu Zii waved his hand.
He found a deck chair and reclined in the cabin.
Like a gentleman, he gazed at the starry sky.
The starry sky was bright, and in fact, these days, everyone felt the weather in the Blazing Fla Realm starting to change.
Not as extre as before.
On the contrary, there was a sense of distinct seasons.
Except for sumr, the other seasons are not favored by the Fire Tribe, which is why they've been tirelessly searching for the source and cause of the weather changes.
But Xu Zii enjoyed this weather.
Under the cool breeze, he gazed at the night sky.
Sect Master Bai soon returned with a small box of tea leaves in her hand.
She found an incense table beside her and slowly set it up.
She knelt on the ground with expert tea brewing skills.
Before long, Xu Zii caught the aroma of tea, a scent that was sowhat refreshing.
"This girl, she really knows how to brew tea.
It seems I've picked the right maid," Xu Zii thought to himself.
"Try it," Sect Master Bai poured a cup of tea and said.
She seed to know what Xu Zii had in mind.
So she explained, "My master taught the art of tea brewing.
He said tea brings peace of mind.
It's not only about drinking; the act of brewing tea does the sa.
Whenever I'm handling affairs of the Immortal Palace without any leads, I often drink tea."
Xu Zii tasted it; the bitterness was followed by sweetness, with an indescribable lingering flavor.
Xu Zii slept there through the night.
And Sect Master Bai stayed beside him, fulfilling her duties as a maid thoroughly.
She rarely agrees to anything easily.
But once she agrees, she would surely do it the best way possible, which is the modus operandi of Sect Master Bai.
When morning arrived, the Immortal Palace's people awoke to discover that their sect master had spent the night on the deck with Xu Zii.
One by one, they found it unbelievable.
The younger generation like Wang Wei dared not say much.
However, the accompanying elders were in an uproar.
Led by the Great Elder, the elders stord over nacingly.
After getting a general understanding of what happened, the Great Elder questioned.
"Sect Master, no matter how fallen our Immortal Palace might be.
There's no need to beco a maid to so brat."
"Great Elder, enough, my mind is made up," Sect Master Bai shook her head to stop him.
"Forgive for not understanding," the Second Elder said beside.
"If you ask , you've been fooled by this brat.
We should kick him off the Spirit Ship."
"Are you trying to rebel?" Sect Master Bai's face changed, she scolded.
Having humbled herself as a maid, naturally, she didn't wish for others to ruin it.
"Sect Master, the Immortal Palace cannot suffer this humiliation," Great Elder stubbornly replied.
"I am still the Sect Master of the Immortal Palace; you must obey what I say."
Sect Master Bai scolded, "If you have any dissatisfaction, when we return, you can try to overthrow as the Sect Master, I wouldn't mind."
Seeing Sect Master Bai's True Fire.
The elders naturally dared not challenge her directly.
In everyone's minds, they deeply respect Sect Master Bai. It was she who has led the entire sect to rise.
"Sect Master, why do you put yourself through this," Great Elder lanted with a sigh.
"I have my reasons," Sect Master Bai explained.
"We need a strategy to defeat the enemy.
If we remain indifferent, I'm afraid extinction is the only path left."
As they were speaking, a sudden burst of laughter ca from the side.
"Hey, what is everyone bickering about?
Let intervene."
Upon hearing this voice, everyone fell silent.
Great Elder turned and said, "We are discussing matters of the Immortal Palace, you as an outsider, shouldn't barge in."
"What's improper about that? As neighbors, if you need help, just say the word," Wang Yunpeng laughed.
He walked over gracefully in his golden robe.
Not taking himself as an outsider, he seed like the owner, walking about openly.
"Young Master Wang, what do you want?" Sect Master Bai asked.
"About what I ntioned before, the alliance, have you considered it?" Wang Yunpeng inquired.
"Today, both the Fire Lion Sect and Fla Tiger Clan ca seeking an alliance with us.
I've been stalling them, just waiting for your response."
"Since the Fire Serpent Sect is so popular, we don't want to compete with others.
Immortal Palace is just a small sect," Sect Master Bai replied.
"Let's end the alliance talk here."
"Sect Master Bai, that's a bit unreasonable," Wang Yunpeng narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Wang Yunpeng, your words are sowhat insolent," Lu Wuming on the side was getting restless.
The curved blade in his hand was lightly humming.
"Sect Master Bai, the choice is yours; if sothing goes wrong.
Don't bla for not warning you," Wang Yunpeng retorted.
"The journey of cultivation is long, falling is common.
And the destruction of various forces is a simple matter."
"This isn't sothing Young Master Wang needs to remind us.
When the Saint of the Immortal Palace reigned supre, your Fire Serpent Sect was still obscure."
Sect Master Bai also showed so anger, snorting coldly.
"Fine, very fine," Wang Yunpeng said through gritted teeth.
He then turned and left directly.
Watching Wang Yunpeng's departure, several elders looked at Sect Master Bai again.
Ultimately, they could only sigh, "Sect Master, don't forget your duties.
Take care."
Several elders departed, and the younger generation of disciples dared not stay and watch.
Sect Master Bai sank into deep silence.
At this mont, Xu Zii slowly opened his eyes, yawning.
He asked, "Is it all handled?"
"I guess I am alone now," Sect Master Bai said with a bitter smile.
"My hopes rest on you."
"Relax," Xu Zii waved his hand.
He asked, "How long until we reach the Sun Domain?"
"Look to the east," Sect Master Bai pointed ahead and said.
Only then did Xu Zii stand up and look ahead.
In just one night, a golden sun had appeared in the place where the Spirit Ship sailed in the east.
This sun was enormous, almost covering the entire Firmant.
But aside from its dazzling brightness, it seed devoid of heat.
"The land illuminated by the sun is where the Sun Domain is located," Sect Master Bai said.
"We are almost there."
At this mont, the Spirit Ship began to speed up, going faster and faster.
