Chapter 23: Eternal Devotion Valley(2)
Chapter 23: Eternal Devotion Valley(2)
It took a moment, but Senior Wu eventually snapped out of his daze and cleared his throat, "Ahem! I've come here for your knowledge today. I have a disciple who was blessed with a powerful yang body, and I would like you to help me identify it."
"A powerful yang body...?" Li Zongying's eyebrows twitched upon hearing this information, and her charming eyes immediately became infused with interest.
In the world of dual cultivation, no talent or Heavenly Constitution was more prized than possessing a powerful yang or yin body, as these sources served as the primary resource for a dual cultivator's cultivation.
'For the Grand Elder of the Fleeting Sword Sect to seek the help of a dual cultivator just to identify his disciple's body, just what kind of yang body does this person have?' Li Zongying wondered to herself.
"So you don't have the slightest clue as to what his yang body might be?" she asked.
"Actually, we do. It's likely to be the Divine Yang Body or the Solar Yang Constitution."
"D-Divine Yang Body?!" Li Zongying's entire body trembled upon hearing this, her eyes widened with shock.
Both of these physiques were exceptionally rare and highly coveted in their world. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they could spark conflicts and even wars among dual cultivators.
With a profound look of yearning on her face, Li Zongying spoke in a stiff voice, "E-Esteemed Elder, why don't we talk about this in a more comfortable place? I could even get our Sect Leader's input on your predicament. She is more knowledgeable than me when it comes to these sorts of things."
Senior Wu, not thinking much about her offer, nodded, "Of course."
Li Zongying promptly guided Senior Wu into the Eternal Devotion Valley. Inside, there were fewer than 50 buildings, an outdoor training area, a cafeteria, and a meeting hall. They possessed the bare essentials to be recognized as a Sect.
Moreover, despite their limited number of buildings, each one exuded an air of luxury, indicating that the Eternal Devotion Valley was not lacking in financial resources.
Senior Wu looked around the Sect, but it was completely empty, almost as though they were the only ones there.
Seeing his puzzled expression, Li Zongying spoke, "Our disciples rarely come outside around this time and are usually cultivating inside their rooms."
They stopped in front of the largest building in the Sect with a banner that said 'Sect Leader's Palace'.
Li Zongying knocked on the door and shouted, "Sect Leader, it's Li Zongying. We have a guest from the Fleeting Sword Sect."
A female voice responded the following moment, "I am currently in the middle of cultivation. Tell him to return at another time."
Li Zongying looked at Senior Wu with an apologetic face and said, "Please give me a minute."
Before Senior Wu could even respond, Li Zongying opened the doors and entered the building without any hesitation.
Senior Wu stared at her disappearing figure with a shocked expression. If this was a normal Sect, he wouldn't have been too shocked by Li Zongying's intrusion, but they were currently in a Sect for dual cultivators, so the Sect Leader was most likely having sexual intercourse with her partner at this very moment.
Inside the building, Li Zongying walked straight to the Sect Leader's room and knocked on it, startling the people inside.
"Sect Leader, pardon my intrusion, but this is urgent. You will regret it if you don't meet with our guest now." Li Zongying said.
"Haaa..." A deep sigh could be heard coming from inside the room.
A few minutes later, the door swung open, revealing a handsome young man with a displeased expression on his rosy face, still adjusting his attire.
The handsome young man quickly left the scene while muttering something under his breath.
Li Zongying ignored him and walked inside the room, where a beautiful woman sat naked on her bed.
The woman stood up and walked to grab her clothes hanging by the door and spoke in a cold voice, "This better be worth it, or I'll punish you myself."
"Divine Yang Body," Li Zongying said in a calm voice.
The Sect Leader's movements froze the moment she heard such words.
"W-what did you just say?" she turned to look at Li Zongying with rigid movements a second later.
Li Zongying didn't waste any more time and explained the situation to her.
"If this individual turns out to have the Divine Yang Body or the Solar Yang Consitution, we must form a close connection with him at all costs." The Sect Leader spoke with a nervous expression on her face.
Li Zongying nodded, "And if we can get him to join our Sect, we might even be able to reach the Red Passion Pavilion's standing in the near future."
After fixing her appearance, the Sect Leader went to greet Senior Wu with Li Zongying.
"I apologize for the wait, Grand Elder. If I had known the Grand Elder of the Fleeting Sword Sect was visiting, I would've cleared my schedule today. I am Xue Zhen, the Sect Leader of this humble Eternal Devotion Valley."
Senior Wu did not immediately respond, as he was stunned by Xue Zhen's beautiful appearance. If Li Zongying looked like a fairy, Xue Zhen could be considered a goddess in his eyes.
"Grand Elder?" Xue Zhen called out to him again a moment later when he failed to respond.
"A-ah! There's no need for an apology since it's my fault for coming here without notice. If anything, I should be the one apologizing for showing up unannounced."
"No, I am glad you came here today, Grand Elder. I have heard about your situation from Elder Li. If you need someone to confirm your disciple's physique, I am more than willing to lend my assistance to the renowned Fleeting Sword Sect."
"That's great to hear. Then I won't bother you any longer and return to my Sect. You may visit our Sect whenever you are available." Senior Wu said and turned around, seemingly impatient to leave the scene.
"Please wait a second, Grand Elder. I happen to be free right now, so I can follow you back to your Sect immediately... if you don't mind." Xue Zhen suddenly said, stopping him in his tracks.
