Chapter 460: Chapter 459: The Golden Finger of the Fairy Eternity Makes Her Life Smooth Sailing_1
Fairy Eternity had an interesting expression upon hearing her Eldest Senior Sister’s reminder. Her face resembled that of an officer who had been working hard all year, just stepped out to go on vacation, and was immediately called back by their superior to handle work.
Suddenly, Fairy Eternity remembered that since being reborn and having a golden cheat, it was the existence of this golden cheat that made her life smooth sailing.
“Lu Yang, you deal with this.”
The third round of responsibilities was placed on Lu Yang’s shoulders once again, and he regained control of his body.
Lu Yang: “…”
One of these days, I’ll also capture three transcendence tribulation stage souls, act as the Sect Leader, and let you do the work for me!
Eldest Senior Sister carried Lu Yang back to Sky Gate Mountain.
“All of these are…” the Eldest Senior Sister moved a pile of documents over to him. She had accumulated a portion while getting her Grandmaster out of jail, another portion when she was in the palace for a meeting.
Little by little, the pile had grown this much.
“The priority is deciding who to send to Ji State,” Eldest Senior Sister reminded Lu Yang of the need to prioritize tasks.
Wu Youdao had revealed that the next target was Ji State. The imperial court and the Five Great Immortal Sects intended to carefully sweep through Ji State to see if they could find any trace of Great Yu’s cultivators.
“As for the nine elders,”
Lu Yang was conflicted on whom to send for help. Ji State had over three hundred cities. If too few people went, it definitely wouldn’t work. So, how many people should he send?
The Sixth Elder found it inconvenient to venture out, and the Eighth Elder risked being wanted if he left. Neither of them could be sent out.
Just as Lu Yang was wracking his brain over this, Eldest Senior Sister reminded him again: “While Seek Dao Sect indeed only has nine elders, this doesn’t mean that there are only nine at the Unification Stage: the Deputy Hall Master of Task Hall, the person in charge of the Hundred Refinement Peak’s cafeteria, the people in charge of the shopping street, and the owner of the Hundred Fragrance Building… are all at the Unification Stage and are peers of the elders.”
Eldest Senior Sister started naming a bunch of people that Lu Yang had never even met before.
“There are quite a few people who are peers of the elders. Some are out carrying out tasks, some have semi-retired within the sect, and others are guarding the Secret Realms. While their cultivation levels may not compare to the elders, they are still much stronger compared to the people at the Unification Stage outside the sect,” she explained.
Previously, Lu Yang had found it strange. Given the number of junior brothers and sisters he had, there couldn’t possibly be only nine people of the elders’ generation. So where had all the others gone?
After Eldest Senior Sister’s explanation, Lu Yang understood. So it seemed that the eight elders and their father were diligent– the others were hiding where he couldn’t see them.
For example, the cafeteria that produced divine weapons. He had bought weapons there several times, but this was the first time he had heard about its manager.
And the Hundred Fragrance Building. He had been there more than once or twice, but he had never seen the building’s owner.
“What about Elder Tao of the Scripture Pavilion?” Lu Yang mentioned an old man he had met at the Scripture Pavilion when he was compiling martial arts techniques before.
“Elder Tao is of the same generation as your Grandmaster; he’s already retired and doesn’t bother with worldly affairs,” Eldest Senior Sister informed him.
“Alright, then let’s send the Second, Third, and Fourth Elders as well as the Deputy Hall Master, the person in charge of the Hundred Refinement Peak’s cafeteria, the people in charge of the shopping street, and the owners of the Hundred Fragrance Building to Ji State, making a total of seven people.”
The Grand Elder would stay in the Task Hall. Both the Fifth and Seventh elders, being the main incomes of Seek Dao Sect, couldn’t go.
“There are two Deputy Hall Masters in the Task Hall.”
“Then send them all. That makes eight people.” Lu Yang waved his hand generously, ordering these prominent figures amongst those at the Unification Stage to head to Ji State for support.
“I’ll notify them immediately,” Eldest Senior Sister nodded, taking initiative to handle the matter.
After the Eldest Senior Sister had left, Lu Yang realized that there must be more people of the same generation as the elders than he was told. Could it be that Eldest Senior Sister wanted to send these people, which is why she only mentioned them?
“No, no.” Lu Yang shook his head, feeling that he was overthinking it.
Lu Yang picked up the topmost document, opened it, and found it to be an invitation to the Yun State Celebration.
According to the invitation, Seek Dao Sect was requested to send young disciples to participate in the celebration. Following several courtesies, the notes specified that, if possible, do not send disciples named Lu Yang or Meng Jingzhou.
Lu Yang: “…”
What happened to Meng Jingzhou and me? Didn’t we shine at the Wild State Celebration, indirectly spreading the news of the Wild State Celebration to everyone in the world?
Among all the celebrations held in various states, only the Wild State Celebration is the most famous, which proves that Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou have put in a lot of hard work.
Lu Yang gave his approval: Let Wei Nanfei and Jin Qinqin participate in the celebration.
These two disciples also entered the Seek Dao Sect with Lu Yang. One was rescued by Senior Brother Dai Bufan when he was young, and the other had mistakenly eaten Green Wood Immortal Fruit when he was a child. Using Lu Yang as a role model, though their cultivation speed is slower than Lu Yang and the others, their solid foundation and steady progress means that when they reach Lu Yang’s realm, they could stand up to Li Haoran. They are the future backbone of the Seek Dao Sect.
Participating in such large-scale events can be very helpful for their future.
For example, if a few Great Yu cultivators show up at the celebration, it could broaden their horizons.
The next document is an official letter from the Golden Buddha Kingdom to the Seek Dao Sect.
The letter states that Lu Yang’s second senior brother, who he has never met before, has cultivated his Golden Body to six feet tall. He moves the Buddha statues from the temple all day and sits there himself with his Golden Body. Because the cultivation of his Golden Body is so good, it is even more sacred than the Buddha statues. The monks did not realize it.
After a week, the old abbot realized that they were not worshiping the Buddha statues, but the Second Senior Brother.
During this week, the Second Senior Brother has been maintaining the state of his six-foot Golden Body.
From the tone of the letter, this is not the first time the Second Senior Brother has done such a thing, and the people of the Buddha Country hope that the Seek Dao Sect will quickly ask the Second Senior Brother to return.
“The Second Senior Brother indeed lives up to his name. He is clearly the chosen successor of our master.” Lu Yang praised sincerely.
Then there was an invitation from the Sword Tower, which also came with a letter. The letter stated that the old veterans of the Sword Tower unanimously decided that Daoist Buyu is the contemporary leader of the Sword Dao, and they hope that Daoist Buyu will go to the Sword Tower to receive the plaque of ‘Leader of the Sword Dao’. Many great powers in the Sword Dao will attend, and the Sword Tower looks forward to the master’s arrival.
The Sword Tower is located in Shu State and is renowned even among the First Class Sects. It represents the orthodox of the Sword Dao. The Sword Tower was once a superior sect, but it fell to a First Class Sect after the death of the Supreme Sword Dao master.
Although the Supreme Sword Dao master has passed away, his legacy and heritage are still present. The Sword Tower has more than ten Unification Stage masters who are all good with swords, extremely formidable.
It can be said that the power of the Sword Tower is even stronger than the Corpse Chasing Sect which is a dabbler superior sect.
The Sword Tower represents the orthodox of Sword Dao, and Daoist Buyu represents the peak of Sword Dao.
Daoist Buyu had once gone to the Sword Tower to compete and defeated more than a dozen Sword Tower cultivators in a row, eventually defeating the Sword Tower Master.
But the Sword Tower has always looked down on Daoist Buyu. Is this offering of a plaque to Daoist Buyu a step back?
By this time, the Eldest Senior Sister had finished her announcement and saw that Lu Yang was pondering the invitation from the Sword Tower when she returned.
“You want the master to go to the Sword Tower to receive the plaque?”
“Yes, would this alleviate the master’s relationship with the Sword Tower?”
“Give up, the master will not go.”
“Why?” Lu Yang wondered, “Doesn’t the master want to reconcile with the people of the Sword Tower?”
“The Sword Tower has already recognized the master and admitted the master’s position. This isn’t the first time they want to award the master a plaque, but the master has never gone.”
“The master is indifferent to fame and fortune?”
“That’s because the invited guests are all people he has crossed paths with. If he goes, it’ll be like walking into a trap.”
“… the master’s enemies really do appear in the most unexpected places. Oh right, can the master be sent to Ji State?”
Eldest Senior Sister thought for a moment and said seriously: “You are the Acting Sect Master, and the master is the Sect Master, you cannot command the master.”
“So it’s not possible?”
“That means I can write a letter suggesting the master go to Ji State.”
