Chapter 65 Choosing A Sect
To go against the master of a demonic sect, someone that was a terrifying force in this world would clearly be a suicide, anger jealousy and despair overwhelmed Mikena's mind.
There was nothing that could be done about it.
But even with this outcome, Mikena was not going to dwell on it for too long, she had not come down to this realm and lost all her strength to watch some bitch take Victor away.
In addition to her obsession with Victor, she developed a huge thirst for power, she really wanted to tear this woman into a thousand pieces.
And this power could only be gained in sects, afterall there was no better place to improve in than one that's specialized for it. By securing a good spot in a sect, the cultivator could get unlimited access to resources and knowledge to bolster their strength as quickly as possible.
Mikena understood that she could not enter the demonic sects, and knowing that the master of the Temple of the Dark Moon held no good will for her, no one could give her a good place there...
Only the righteous and imperial forces remained to choose from. Mikena didn't care which of these forces she had to join at all, all that she required of them was the resources that would allow her to trample the Dark Moon Temple's sect master into the dirt.
Knowing that she not only possessed incredible talent but also had a clear enmity from the master of the Temple of the Dark Moon would undoubtedly give reasons for many sects to argue and compete over her, thinking in that direction Mikena's mood improved, albeit slightly.
At that moment an elderly woman approached her.
"Your name is Mikena, right? Would you like to join a righteous sect?" - She said proudly.
Many of the envoys were surprised to see her; it was clear from their dazed expressions that this woman was not someone of low standing.
Mikena nodded.
"If you give me the power to trample that Dark Moon Temple bitch, I'm ready to join your sect!" - She replied.
The hall fell into silence.
In order to say that the master of one of the best demonic sects was a bitch, it was necessary to have incredible courage, because if such words were to be heard by members of the Dark Moon Temple, they would attempt to murder her on the spot.
Many messengers from the middle sects moved some distance away from Mikena, though they wanted to recruit her into their sects, after she spoke those words, they did not have the courage to do so anymore. With such a woman, their sect could as well perish not far into the future.
Of course, this only applied to the middle sects, but the higher ones just chuckled at her words. They were pleased to hear such words, especially the righteous sects that were not hiding their enmity towards demonic sects.
"Why do you hate her so much?" - The old woman asked curiously. Instead of moving away from Mikena, she took one step closer to her, as if she had found an uncut diamond.
"She stole my man!" - Mikena snorted with hatred.
"Stole your man..." The old woman thought she had misheard, it was the first time she had heard such nonsense; there were a thousand possibilities of hatred, but her reason turned out to be the most absurd of all.
The master of the Temple of the Dark Moon clearly would not have done that, the old woman thought. But looking at Mikena's dark face, she was sure she wasn't lying.
The old lady was in contemplation for a long while, after which she seemed to come to a decision.
"I'm willing to give you such a place, not only unlimited access to the resources of the sect, but if your physique turns out to be of heavenly rank I can give you a place as a holy maiden, how about that?"
Listening to the dialogue between Mikena and the old woman, most of the envoys frowned, their conversation was somehow strange and every word spoken by the pair was more and more absurd.
They thought that Mikena had obvious problems with her head and she was delirious. How could one of the most bloodthirsty women in this world steal some weak man? But now, hearing the old woman's words, their jaws were ready to fall off.
'What the fuck?!' - were the thoughts of many.
Seeing Mikena frown all this time and clearly doubtful about her words, the old woman shouted angrily:
"Do you still have doubts!? Look around you, who else can give you this opportunity? All the people here are hypocrites and you think they can give you what you want? Impossible!"
The messengers were furious at her words, but even then all they could do was pretend they didn't hear it. They had neither the strength nor courage to confront her.
"What if you can't give me that either?" - After pondering deeply over the old woman's words, Mikena answered.
"Hahahaha." - The old woman laughed.
"Girl, you don't know who I am, right?."
Mikena nodded. She knew little of the sects of this world.
"I am the master of one of the strongest righteous sects, in my sect you will not only get unlimited opportunities but also glory and honor among all the people of this world. You don't have to worry, my sect doesn't practice dual cultivation or anything of sorts... Even more, there are no men in my sect, all the members are women.
"A sect where everyone is a woman…" For the first time during the conversation, Mikena's eyes lit up.
She was a little afraid that she might be forced to sleep with other men, that was the way it was in the place she came from, without strength women are simply unable to maintain their purity and if she slept with another man not only would Victor hate her but she would hate herself as well.
Mikena was well aware of Victor's attitude, if this happened it would be a miracle if they maintained any form of relationship, of course the man with whom she would cheat on Victor would only be awaiting death.
Therefore, the old woman's words were very advantageous, Mikena would not only get a chance to become stronger but also to save herself only for Victor.
"Alright, I agree." - Mikena nodded.
At that moment the old woman smiled brightly, she did not expect that by accident she would find such a person in this place.
"What is the name of your sect?" - After agreeing, Mikena was curious to know more about the sect.
"The Sect of the Boundless Lotus" - Proudly pronounced by the old woman.
Without wasting another second the old woman flapped her sleeve and Mikena and her suddenly disappeared.
Mikena did not expect that a chance encounter would soon bring her not only great power but also a great headache, so much so that she would wish she had never met the old woman in her life.
