The Immortal Cultivation World of Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy-Chapter 94 - : 94. Everything is for the sect
Chapter 94: 94. Everything is for the sect
Heavenly Sword Sect, Yuxu Palace.
When Xuan Ling arrived at the Yuxu Palace, she immediately saw the person she most disliked—Yu Qing, the True Disciple of the Sword Control lineage.
She was also Xuan Ling’s senior sister.
Yu Qing wore white, her figure tall and upright, her appearance handsome and graceful, her temperament gentle as jade, mild yet not outdated, deeply loved and revered by the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
It is said that the male disciples who secretly love her could fill the entire Heavenly Ascending Ladder.
“Sister, you’re here.”
Upon seeing Xuan Ling, Yu Qing greeted her with a smile, and a breeze-like warm and gentle aura hit her face, making one feel refreshed and delighted.
Several duty disciples inside the Yuxu Palace showed enchanted expressions.
Xuan Ling very subtly frowned, but on her face, she revealed a frivolous smile: “Oh, I’m quite lazy compared to sister, who is always so diligent. The Sect Master must see this clearly.”
Facing Xuan Ling’s sarcasm, Yu Qing did not show displeasure but advised, “Heavenly Dao rewards the diligent. It’s better for you to be diligent, sister. Try not to go down the mountain to play often and delay your cultivation.”
“No matter how diligent, I cannot compare to sister’s innate talent, it might be better to be lazy.”
“Sister…”
While they were talking, three streaks of light flew from the distance and landed in the Yuxu Palace, transforming into human forms, revealing three women of different ages.
Yu Qing and Xuan Ling quickly bowed in greeting: “Master, Aunt Master.”
The structure of the Heavenly Sword Sect comprises a main sect and three lineages.
The main sect is the Heavenly Sword Sect, and the three lineages are Sword Control, Xuan Sword, and Lei Sword, all branches of the Heavenly Sword.
These three women are the leaders of the three lineages. True Master Xuan Jian is Xuan Ling’s Master, bearing the appearance of a sixteen-year-old girl; standing next to Xuan Ling, they looked like sisters.
True Master Yu Jian is Yu Qing’s Master, a forty-year-old woman, whose temperament was almost identical to Yu Qing’s, both gentle as jade and modest, appearing like mother and daughter.
The last woman, aged between twenty and thirty, indeterminable, wore a stern and indifferent expression, her eyes piercing, sending shivers down one’s spine.
This was True Master Lei Jian, whose True Disciple, Lei Ting, was currently secluded in cultivation and did not appear.
Despite their similar ages, their different characters were evident from their appearances.
True Master Yu Jian was gently inquiring about Yu Qing’s recent studies, assigning cultivation tasks to her True Disciple every few days.
True Master Xuan Jian and Xuan Ling were arm in arm, whispering secrets; soon they broke into laughter.
True Master Lei Jian, who was always serious, headed straight into the Yuxu Palace.
Others had no choice but to end their conversations and follow.
Inside the grand hall of the Yuxu Palace, mist lingered, resembling an Immortal Realm, with a huge circle of light erected in the middle. Within the circle, the current scenes from the Heavenly Ascending Ladder were reflected.
This magical circle is called Heavenly Light Mirror, a Magic Treasure of the Heavenly Sword Sect, capable of observing the surroundings of Cloud Sea Mountains.
The leaders of the three lineages had come here today to pick promising new seeds.
Among this year’s trialists, most were mediocre, with two exceptions: Xia Wenqiu and Ji Congfeng.
The Xia family of Jing Chu Territory has a close relationship with Heavenly Sword Sect, hence Xia Wenqiu was added early to the Heavenly Sword Sect’s watchlist. If not for her insistence on participating personally in the entry-level trials, she would have been admitted into the sect already.
Ji Congfeng, appearing in Yunshan City half a month ago, had her talent noted by Heavenly Sword Sect and was also added to the watchlist as a top candidate that could compete with Xia Wenqiu.
Aside from these two women, other trialists were rubbish, not worth mentioning.
The leaders of the three lineages had rushed here early to compete for the ownership of Xia Wenqiu and Ji Congfeng.
Only the two most promising seeds, one of the three paths is destined to be left void.
As soon as they entered the grand hall, one could see Xia Wenqiu and Ji Congfeng, reaching the head of everyone on the Heavenly Ascending Ladder, dominating the scene.
Those trialists who had ascended the ladder earlier had long been left behind.
As soon as True Master Xuan Jian stepped in, she immediately pointed at Xia Wenqiu and exclaimed in a delicate voice, “Wow, waving a paper fan in such cold weather, so charismatic, I want her.”
True Master Lei Jian, with an expression as cold as ice, stared at an equally indifferent Ji Congfeng and coldly spat out three words: “Ji Congfeng.”
The two paths had divided the two most outstanding seedlings right from the start, not even giving True Master Yu Jian a chance to speak.
But Yu Qing was not worried at all; she had great confidence in her Master.
Watching her two anxious junior sisters, True Master Yu Jian spoke gently: “I want them all.”
The grand hall fell silent.
True Master Xuan Jian and True Master Lei Jian were not surprised at all.
Don’t be fooled by True Master Yu Jian’s gentle demeanor and soft speech, which seems generous, but in reality, she has the thickest skin and can say the most shameless things.
True Master Xuan Jian pointed at her: “Senior sister, your Sword Control path has the most disciples, yet you still compete with your junior sisters, isn’t that too shameless?”
True Master Lei Jian gave a succinct agreement: “Despicable.”
True Master Yu Jian laughed, her smile as warm as a spring breeze: “What are my sisters talking about? Although we are all branches of the Heavenly Sword, we come from the same source and are all sisters. What’s yours is mine and what’s mine is yours; you think having many disciples in my Sword Control path is a blessing? It’s actually a burden, a huge responsibility. The everyday losses and expenses keep me up at night, causing my hair to fall out. All these efforts are for the sect, why distinguish between you and me?”
Look, does this sound like something a person would say?
Why not give some of your disciples and resources to me so I can share the burden for the sect?
True Master Xuan Jian knew how to argue too, she, together with True Master Lei Jian, were no match for their senior sister and straightforwardly said: “Let’s not talk further, senior sister, let’s go by the rules.”
True Master Lei Jian succinctly agreed again: “Agreed.”
True Master Yu Jian also smiled: “Fine, I’ll listen to you both.”
Yu Qing was not worried at all. Why did her Sword Control path have the most disciples? Wasn’t everything done according to the rules? There was no loss.
While the three decision-makers were amiably negotiating, Xuan Ling, who usually loved to interrupt, remained unusually silent this time.
Her gaze fixated on the Heavenly Light Mirror, following the figure on the Heavenly Ladder below, slowly climbing up.
After being reminded by me yesterday, he didn’t wear a face mask today… was he captivated by my heroic charm?
Heh, men.
A smug smile appeared on Xuan Ling’s face as she already thought about which places to take this stubbornly outspoken young man.
“Junior sister, what are you looking at?”
The voice of Yu Qing suddenly interrupted Xuan Ling’s thoughts.
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
“Are you looking at this man? Oh, he is quite handsome, even more so than the Disciple Gou Cheng, seems like the junior sisters are going to be restless again.”
Yu Qing looked at the figure in the Heavenly Light Mirror, her praise genuine.
Gou Cheng is a male disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, very talented and known for his handsome features, greatly admired by the female disciples.
But Gou Cheng had not favored anyone, as it was said he secretly admired one of the True Disciples, but no one knew who it specifically was.
Xuan Ling slowly turned around, staring at Yu Qing, and said with a smile: “Senior sister, this is the man I’m interested in, I even gave him my jade pendant—surely you won’t compete with me for him?”
Yu Qing also smiled: “Junior sister jests, I always embrace the Heavenly Dao and do not dwell on personal feelings of romance; you can rest assured.”
Xuan Ling eyed Yu Qing suspiciously, her smile was 90% similar to True Master Yu Jian’s, always leaving her feeling uneasy.
