Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Young Sect Master Leng Yuexi,
The Grass on the Wall of the Lu Family 1
Translator: 549690339
At this moment, inside Misty Cloud City was the Lu family’s mansion.
A strikingly beautiful woman dressed in a white long skirt was seated in the main seat, her graceful temperament, exquisite figure, and charm that seemed to defy nature itself, made her look like a fairy descended from the Immortal World.
She was Leng Yuexi, the Young Sect Master of the Immortal Mist Sect.
After being ambushed outside the city, she chose not to go back to the Immortal Mist Sect but instead to return to the Misty Cloud City.
Because she knew, on the road back to the Immortal Mist Sect, there would inevitably be an ambush by cultivators from the Ghost Demon Sect.
It was almost certain death to return.
Staying in Misty Cloud City gave her a glimmer of hope.
After all, Misty Cloud City’s renowned second stage, top-notch Silver Moon Formation was known for its immense defensive power, strong enough to withstand even a blow from a Golden Core Master, yet its attacking power wasn’t as noteworthy.
It was precisely because of this second-stage formation that the Lu family could maintain its foothold in the Cloud Fog Mountains, riddled with demonic beasts.
Otherwise, the city would have been destroyed by the frequent beast tides and wouldn’t have stood firm for over a hundred years.
“Young Sect Master, those demon cultivators have temporarily retreated. I fear they will not let the matter rest. I wonder when the reinforcements from our sect will arrive. Misty Cloud City probably can’t hold out for too long,” Lu Hongran, the elder of the Lu family, asked with a hint of hesitation while sitting in a lower position.
“Rest assured, the Sect Master is already aware of this situation and will send reinforcements soon.”
“Once the Golden Core elders of our Immortal Mist Sect intervene, those minor demon cultivators will undoubtedly be annihilated.”
“Furthermore, your Lu family will be greatly credited and will rise in status. Perhaps a member of the Lu family might even become an inner sect disciple, or even a true disciple of the Immortal Mist Sect.”
Leng Yuexi said calmly.
She was also very skilled at promising rewards to others, given that she was heavily injured and needed time to heal.
She still needed the Lu family to provide protection.
“That would be wonderful! We will go through water and tread on fire for the Immortal Mist Sect, dedicating ourselves completely,” replied Lu Hongran, unable to hold back his joy.
The other elders of the Lu family were also overjoyed. If they could survive the crisis, even if the old patriarch died, the Lu family would rise in status and become a significant family in the Immortal Mist Sect.
After all, the female cultivator before their eyes was the future Sect Master of the Immortal Mist Sect and a future Golden Core Master.
Once she takes the throne, they would transform from mere servants to men who can reach for the stars.
“Alright, you may leave now. Remember to watch over the formation carefully. Don’t let the demon cultivators break the formation. We must hold out until reinforcements from the sect arrive.”
Leng Yuexi waved her hand, thus dismissing her guests.
“Yes, Young Sect Master.”
All the senior members of the Lu family filed out, leaving only Leng Yuexi behind.
After not too long, this group of Lu family elders entered another quiet chamber.
Unlike their previous ecstatic expression, their faces were now solemn, clouded with heavy dread.
“Old patriarch, how do you see this matter? Do we side with the Immortal Mist Sect or the Ghost Demon Sect?” a senior member of the Lu family asked. They were cunning veterans, they wouldn’t be easily blinded by the tempting promises made by Leng Yuexi.
It was simply because she was the Young Sect Master of the Immortal Mist Sect and a foundation-building cultivator that they had to show respect and go along with the show.
When it comes to role-playing, who could surpass these veteran schemers?
“To tell the truth, if one could be a disciple of the Righteous Sect, who would want to be a demon cultivator?” the patriarch of the Lu family, Lu Hongran, stated pensively.
Hearing this, the other elders nodded in agreement. Indeed, to become a disciple of the demonic path was like becoming a rat crossing the street – everyone would target you.
Moreover, most demon arts skills were about quick advancement. While they conferred great power, there were hardly any chances of becoming a foundation-building cultivator.
Only those cultivators with inferior spiritual roots would tread the path of the demonic in their quest for enlightenment. If one had excellent spiritual roots, they usually followed the righteous sect.
“So, according to the Ancestor, we should support the Immortal Mist Sect, and defend Leng Yuexi at all costs?!”
An elder asked tentatively.
“Foolish.”
The Lu family ancestor, Lu Hongran, scoffed coldly, “Our Lu family is weak. How dare we casually take sides? If we choose the wrong side, it would spell the annihilation of our clan.”
“Be it the righteous or demonic path, only by surviving do we have the choice. If we are dead, there’s no point in discussing righteousness or demonic. As for the war between the two sects, we can only take it step by step.”
“I understand the Ancestor’s meaning,”
The family head of the Lu family came to a realization. “At present, we do not know the outcome between the Immortal Mist Sect and the Ghost Demon Sect, so we can only take it one step at a time. If the Immortal Mist Sect’s power is stronger, naturally we will support Leng Yuexi.
If the Ghost Demon Sect is stronger, we would then switch allegiance to them and hand over Leng Yuexi. Only by playing both sides, changing sides like chameleons, can we survive.”
“Correct.”
Lu Hongran, the ancestor of the Lu family, nodded in satisfaction. “At least the Lu family has a few smart people who can understand my plans. You must remember that we are not yet in the position to take sides. We can lend our support to the Immortal Mist Sect for now as we can hold up in Misty Cloud City for a minimum of three years.”
“During these three years, it should be enough for the Ghost Demon Sect and the Immortal Mist Sect to determine the victor. If the Immortal Mist Sect does not come to our aid by then, do not blame our family’s lack of mercy.”
His eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.
“Yes, Ancestor.”
The cultivators of the Lu family agreed, all nodding in unison.
A few days later, the interior of Misty Cloud City gradually calmed down.
Although the cultivators of the Ghost Demon Sect outside the city launched attacks on Misty Cloud City from time to time, usually in the morning, noon, and evening, thanks to Misty Cloud City’s second-stage grand formation, the attacks were easily repelled.
The cultivators residing inside the city were thus relieved.
After all, as long as the demon cultivators could not breach Misty Cloud City, they would remain safe.
There were even cultivators with leisure time who stood on the city walls, engaging in verbal fights with the demon cultivators.
This naturally infuriated the demon cultivators, who were helpless to respond in kind, deriving some pleasure amidst the hardship.
As for Zhou Sui, he was not so idle as he stayed home to cultivate intensively, having consumed a Golden Marrow Pill to enhance his cultivation.
Whooosh—
Immediately, he perceived the True Yuan within his body increasing at an astonishing speed. The massive medicinal power transformed into the power of True Yuan, continuously circulating throughout his meridians and Dantian Qi Sea.
At this moment, he felt the peak of the power of True Yuan inside his body.
Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer completion.
Undoubtedly, after months of arduous cultivation, Zhou Sui had finally improved his cultivation to the completed stage of the Qj Cultivation Sixth Layer.
“Is this the bottleneck in the midway of Qi Cultivation?”
However, at this moment, Zhou Sui startlingly realized that his internal True Yuan seemed to have hit a bottleneck. No matter how he circulated it, it could not increase.
To break through this bottleneck required continuous arduous cultivation, perhaps spending several years to constantly challenge and ultimately overcome this bottleneck.
Frankly, several years was already considered short.
This was due to him possessing the seventh-grade spiritual root. If he had still had the ninth-grade spiritual root, he would need at least twenty years to potentially break through the bottleneck in the midway Qi Cultivation..
