Chapter 1163: Chapter 1159: Only One Missing from the Seven Major Sects
“Sect Master Huang, I didn’t expect to see you again so soon.”
Ye Fan stood at a distance and saluted, his voice like a ringing bell. He was also observing the people around Huang Ze but did not see Fa Ying and the mysterious black shadow. Ye Fan guessed that Huang Ze didn’t want people to know about Huangji Sect’s cooperation with the demonic cultivators.
Huang Ze gave Ye Fan a cold smile and asked, “Where are the people from Tianxuan Sect now?”
“In Nanhai City,” Ye Fan replied, “Do you need to lead the way for Sect Master Huang?”
“No need, let’s go!”
Huang Ze knew that with Sang Yuan and Lan Jing both present, it wouldn’t be advantageous for him. Even if he brought many people, there weren’t many in the Huangji Sect who could compare in cultivation with Ye Fan and Wu Ding, both at the Body Integration Realm.
The nineteen people ca in a hurry and left just as quickly. After they left, Wu Ding asked, “Aren’t you afraid they’ll cause trouble?”
“If they dare to cause trouble on Earth, I’ll make sure they can’t return to the Secret Realm even if it costs my life!” Ye Fan said fiercely.
Just after the people from the Huangji Sect left, the people from the three allied sects also arrived. Among these three sects, there weren’t many cultivators above the Divinity Transformation Stage. Ye Fan personally escorted them to Nanhai City.
Out of the seven major sects, only the mbers of Diyuan Sect had not arrived; the other six sects were all present.
Aside from Tianxuan Sect staying at one hotel, the mbers of the other five sects either stayed in hotels or vacation villas near the beach in Nanhai City. Sun Ning arranged everything ticulously, providing exquisite dishes and fine wine, and even chefs to cook personally. They also provided so alternate Earth clothing, Taoist robes, etc., fearing these people might not be accustod to living on Earth.
When Ye Fan finished settling these people into his private villa in Nanhai City, Wu Ding and Li Zhaojun were already there, along with Min Shang, who had previously escorted the sect to Nanhai City.
Wu Ding angrily said, “Why couldn’t they negotiate in the Secret Realm and instead ca to Earth, clearly putting pressure on you and Yun Zhao!”
Ye Fan shook his head, “Senior Sister, you can’t bla the sects. Even within the five temporarily allied sects, how much trust exists among them?”
Wu Ding thought for a mont and finally sighed helplessly. It was because of Tianxuan Sect’s betrayal that the sects didn’t trust each other. Fearful of ambush, they chose to hold a truce negotiation on Earth, seeing the potential in Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun as the Chosen Ones, using this as an opportunity to win them over.
The sects were aware that with the impending tribulation, continuing to battle would lead to their demise. However, no one would yield to another, and even the powerful Diyuan Sect couldn’t command obedience from others, making a real truce extrely difficult.
Li Zhaojun said, “I believe that finding the Chosen One, the one who can bond with Taining, is the only way to get everyone to lay down their arms. Isn’t Taining still in Tianxuan Sect’s hands?”
Wu Ding shook his head, indicating he didn’t know. Ye Fan said, “I suspect Taining is with Diyuan Sect.”
Rather than cooperating, Tianxuan Sect essentially submitted to Diyuan Sect because, in terms of strength, even the combined six sects were no match for Diyuan Sect, let alone Tianxuan Sect.
Diyuan Sect would not work with Tianxuan Sect on equal terms.
“Sect Master Ling from Diyuan Sect has been to Earth once before. Why is he late this ti?” Wu Ding was a bit worried.
Ye Fan said, “Don’t worry, Senior Sister. While the six sects have sent experts to Earth, their sects are still well-defended. Diyuan Sect wouldn’t risk censure by acting rashly. There must be sothing delaying Sect Master Ling.”
In this situation, Ye Fan thought he shouldn’t have deceived Jiuyou Su Girl into leaving earlier. If she remained on Earth, it would indeed be interesting. Even the mighty seven sects combined wouldn’t stand a chance against soone of near ancient prowess!
But doing so might lead to chaos on Earth, potentially becoming a disaster for its people.
…
…
As the host, Ye Fan also had to diate.
All parties had to agree on a negotiation ti, and it was Ye Fan’s job to liaise with them.
Ye Fan’s relationship with Huangji Sect was tense, as they were part of a five-sect alliance. Thus, negotiating matters fell to Hai Wuzi of the Xinghe Sect.
As for Tianxuan Sect, Elder Wu was sent. After discussions between the two sides, it was decided that the negotiation would be held the next morning around nine o’clock in the conference room on the sixth floor of the beach resort hotel. Both sides would send only a few delegates, but the sect leaders would be present. In this situation, Tianxuan Sect was at a disadvantage, contending with five other sects, but fortunately, Diyuan Sect backed them up.
After agreeing on the negotiation ti and place, Ye Fan returned to his private villa to find Sun Ning already waiting for instructions.
“Mr. Ye, these distinguished guests… appear dissatisfied with the reception on Earth. Should we send so won over?” Sun Ning inquired.
Hosting the six sects required attention to their needs.
They wore Taoist robes and stayed only a day or two on Earth, so there was no need for new clothes. They were cultivators at the Divinity Transformation Stage and above, with little appetite, so no need for food. They didn’t need to sleep; they could cultivate anywhere, so accommodation wasn’t a concern.
The last aspect, transportation, wasn’t needed since they traveled quickly, like rockets, without needing vehicles.
With seemingly no needs, Sun Ning considered using beauty to appeal to them, as among “wine, won, wealth, and pride,” beauty might tempt a cultivator, as they also had desires.
Ye Fan shook his head, “Even if there are those fond of beauty, they prefer female cultivators. Can we find female cultivators on Earth to entertain them?”
The n of these six sects generally liked beauty, even Elder Wu, whom Ye Fan regarded as a serious cultivator, accepted hosting by several girls at Tianling Pavilion during his visit. That led to his carelessness and the subsequent massacre of Tianling Pavilion without a trace.
Discussing recruiting female cultivators to entertain them put Sun Ning in a tough spot. The only female cultivators she knew were won around Ye Fan and her own lady, Han Qing’er. She couldn’t offer her own mistress to them, even if she agreed, Ye Fan wouldn’t.
Ye Fan said, “Let’s do this: find so good wine and tea and so valuable Chinese dicinal herbs to send to them. These herbs are auxiliary materials for making Spirit Pill elixirs, which might catch their interest.”
“Yes, Mr. Ye, I’ll get on it imdiately.” Sun Ning finally found sothing she could do and hurried off to act.
Ye Fan then turned to Sang Yuan and said, “Co with to investigate the realities of these six sects.”
