92: The first temptation, heavy conditions

“You don’t need to teach us; we can still take responsibility.”

“That’s right, your Yun Yao Peak has already monopolized nearly half of the excellent Disciples within the Sect. If this continues, how are the rest of our Peaks supposed to survive? How are we supposed to pass on our Legacy?”

“Senior Brother Shi is right. This Junior Nephew can join any Peak today, except for Yun Yao Peak!”

The Chief’s continuous protests made the Mei Fu the target of all criticism.

Despite this, she remained expressionless, her voice cool as she said, “Which Peak the Junior Nephew wishes to join is entirely his own decision, not something for you all to decide.”

After speaking, she shifted her gaze to Lin Yuan, extending an olive branch, “Junior Nephew, I am Shen Mingzhu, Chief of Yun Yao Peak. I specialize in various secret arts and Martial Skills, as well as diverse elemental powers. If you are willing to join my Sect, I promise to Cultivate you to be the next Chief.”

As soon as these words were uttered, the entire hall was astonished!

Among all the conditions offered, this Mei Fu’s promise was undoubtedly the most significant!

The next Chief!

That’s the position of Chief!

Don’t countless Disciples diligently Cultivate precisely to improve and grow stronger, hoping to one day sit on that esteemed throne?

And now, the path to the throne is laid out before Lin Yuan. He has no reason to refuse, does he?

Facing such tempting conditions, Lin Yuan was first surprised, then sighed inwardly, “It’s a pity I already have an agreement with the Sect Master. Otherwise, I might really have chosen Chief Shen. That way, I could also be with Chan’er, and Cultivating together would be more convenient.”

Lu Yichan, who was standing nearby, heard the words of the white-robed Mei Fu, her eyes first lit up, then she remembered Yun Qiying’s words, and instantly dimmed again.

With the Sect Master’s prior declaration, even if Shen Mingzhu offered a significant condition, she still had no chance of taking Lin Yuan as a Disciple.

It’s truly regrettable that she cannot be under the same master as the Young Master.

Liu Yuyan, on the other hand, looked envious.

She had always yearned to join the Mei Fu’s Sect, and the treatment Lin Yuan was receiving was truly her dream scenario.

How could this petty fellow be so lucky?

Before Lin Yuan could respond, the purple-robed woman sharply snapped, “Shen Mingzhu, do you take us for nonexistent?”

The Mei Fu calmly opened her lips, “I did not stop you from taking Disciples, nor did I cover your mouths. You are free to offer whatever conditions you wish, and the Junior Nephew can hear them all. With such fair competition, what else do you have to be dissatisfied with?”

Fair competition?

You’ve already promised to Cultivate Lin Yuan as your successor, how can we still compete?

The purple-robed woman understood that no matter what she said now, the other party would not retract her promise. Instead of continuing to argue, it would be better to offer a heavier chip, thus having a greater chance of making Lin Yuan choose her Peak.

So, she looked at the young man with her beautiful eyes and softly coaxed, “Little Junior Nephew, I am Chi Bixia, Chief of Yunxia Peak. Although I cannot offer the same conditions as Chief Shen, I can promise you that as long as you are willing to join Yunxia Peak, I can find ten or more female Disciples to serve you, accompanying you in Cultivation day and night without rest. Combined with our Peak’s supreme Yin Cultivation Technique, your cultivation will surely soar and advance by leaps and bounds.”

For a moment, everyone’s expressions changed again!

The female Disciples of Yunxia Peak were famously beautiful and graceful, making them highly sought after by many male Sect members.

An ordinary person would be grateful to have even one, but Chi Bixia promised ten at once!

What man could resist such a seductive promise?

At this moment, many Disciples’ eyes were filled with envy, their breathing quickening. They wished they could immediately replace Lin Yuan, agree to Chief Chi’s request, and go to Yunxia Peak to wield their weapons, conquer territories, and battle the beauties for three hundred rounds.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan’s mouth twitched, a look of exasperation on his face.

This Chief Chi really dares to make promises; she even uses female Disciples as bargaining chips.

Isn’t this just like the female companions in universities in his previous life?

That kind of scene, when thought of, was indeed very exhilarating, but he already had several women eagerly waiting for him to feed them, and he had no time to spend his energy on strangers.

“You, Chi Bixia! How dare you sacrifice the bodies of your Disciples to entice men? How can you be so shameless?”

Upon hearing the woman’s words, even Shen Mingzhu, who had always been calm and collected, couldn’t help but open her mouth to reprimand her.

“Yes, Chief Chi, what you’re doing is truly too much.”

“Those Disciples are not your tools; you cannot use them so indiscriminately.”

“What you’re doing truly disgraces the name of Chief!”

Several Chiefs criticized her one after another, but Chi Bixia remained unconcerned, speaking calmly, “You all jest. I have been a Chief for so many years, and I have never forced anyone. The reason I dare to say such a thing is because I believe that with Junior Nephew’s talent, he will surely captivate all the female Disciples within the Peak, making them willingly serve him.”

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but nod secretly.

With Lin Yuan’s talent and appearance, no female Disciple could resist him. At that time, let alone finding ten, even dozens could be easily arranged.

After the woman finished speaking, she looked at the young man again and said, “Junior Nephew, we have all presented our conditions. You’ve listened for so long, which Peak are you more inclined towards in your heart?”

At this moment, all eyes in the hall focused on Lin Yuan, awaiting his decision.

“Which Peak do you think Senior Brother Lin will join?”

“I guess it will still be Yun Yao Peak. After all, that’s an opportunity to become the master of a Peak; the conditions of the other Peaks simply can’t compare.”

“Heh heh, aren’t Yunxia Peak’s conditions much better than Yun Yao Peak’s? With beauties accompanying you and accelerated Cultivation, it’s simply a life like that of an immortal.”

“Your mind is only on women, you fellow.”

“Isn’t living a lifetime just for these things? If you’re not interested, don’t hinder others from pursuing them.”

As everyone discussed, a pleasant, ethereal sound suddenly came from the sky: “So many Chiefs gathered together, today’s Outer Sect is truly lively.”

“Whoosh!”

A white-robed figure flashed into existence, appearing suddenly in people’s sight without the slightest trace of Qi.

So fast!

Listening to that voice just now, it was clearly from a great distance, yet this Mei Fu could arrive in an instant, without even a single wisp of Origin Qi escaping. This kind of operation can be called a peerless Divine Ability.

The Outer Sect Disciples had never seen this Mei Fu before, but judging from her entrance, her identity must be extraordinary.

Sure enough, just as they had this conjecture, they saw all the Elders and Chiefs bowing to the woman in unison: “Greetings, Sect Leader.”

Sect Master!

The person who came was actually the Sect Master!

Oh my god!

These little Disciples could actually witness the Sect Master’s true form with their own eyes; this was truly a heaven-sent blessing!

Due to prolonged seclusion, Yun Qiying rarely appeared within the Sect. All matters, big and small, within the Sect were entrusted to the Elders of Cloud Sovereign Peak.

Even when a Disciple with a Star Destiny Bone appeared two years ago, she did not emerge from seclusion.

Therefore, Lu Yichan had never been able to meet her.

It wasn’t until the recent chaos caused by You Ning that she was forced to come out and preside over the overall situation.

Of course, not many people knew about the Hundred-City League matter. She did not receive other Sect members after returning from the mountain range, so from the perspective of the Chiefs and Elders, she had not appeared for several decades.

Such a long time, logically speaking, unless something extremely significant happened, it would be impossible to alarm such a major figure.

Yet today, she suddenly swept in like a hurricane, truly catching all the high-ranking Sect officials off guard.
