Chapter 124: Only Children Do Multiple Choice Questions
Jade Pearl Immortal Domain, Jade Pearl Star Palace main altar.
On a temporarily opened plain, a formation with a diameter of several thousand zhang has been erected. The lines of mana on the foundation stones of the formation are as dense as spider webs, forming intricate and mysterious ancient celestial script symbols.
Under the command of the elders, a large group of core disciples are busy at the edge of the formation, busily assembling and perfecting the main body of the formation using components made from spirit crystals, spirit jade, and various rare materials.
On a nearby platform, the sect leader Yan Qinyang furrowed his brows as he watched the gradually completed formation. After pondering for a while, he asked, "Will this method really work?"
Beside him, the gray-robed person who had once persuaded Luo Huan chuckled and said, "Sect leader, rest assured. Our organization has always been cautious in its actions. You have also seen the formation diagram of this formation, so you shouldn't doubt its power. As long as the formation is activated and operating at full power, it can suppress and restrain even several Mysterious Immortal-level powerhouses."
"Even if the younger generation has some elders protecting them, once they are teleported into this formation by the Void Teleportation Seal, they won't be able to escape in a short time. We can take advantage of the power we have arranged around them and establish victory in one move."
The several high-ranking elders present also found this reasoning reasonable. With such a high-level arrangement, it would be enough to deal with the sect leader of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, let alone a junior with low cultivation.
Yan Qinyang nodded slowly and said, "I hope so. Now it depends on how the person you bribed performs. As long as her actions are successful, we won't have any problems here."
The gray-robed person pondered for a moment and said, "I just gave her the items a few days ago, so it's unlikely to be so fast. But at most, it will take half a year. We don't need to wait too long."
For high-level cultivators, a year or two is like a fleeting moment, not worth mentioning at all. As long as they can capture Qin Muling alive, it would be a huge profit.
The core elder Xie Changqing glanced at the gray-robed person and said, "There's something that needs to be clarified in advance. Besides Qin Muling, if there are any other outstanding disciples or high-ranking elders who are teleported here, regardless of whether they are alive or dead, they will ultimately belong to our Jade Pearl Star Palace! Is there a problem?"
He was thinking about Luo Huan and Xue Bingxuan, who were both outstanding among the new generation disciples of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. If they could be captured alive and their souls and bodies controlled by secret divine abilities, allowing them to combine with the outstanding disciples of their own sect, the offspring born from them would surely be outstanding.
The gray-robed person hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly agreed, "Since you want it, then it's settled. But you need to prepare more capable people. Don't capsize in the gutter."
"You don't need to worry about that."
Xie Changqing said with a gloomy expression as he looked at the expression of their sect leader. He pondered whether to take advantage of the situation and engage in some internal conflict after the matter was done, so that Jade Pearl Star Palace could monopolize all the benefits.
Regardless of what secrets or opportunities Qin Muling possesses, they will all belong to Jade Pearl Star Palace in the end.
...
Imperial Dao Peak.
Inside the Cave Mansion sealed by layers of formations, Qin Muling sat on a cloud bed. The mysterious and profound Spiritual Light of Enlightenment enveloped the five senior sisters around her, and the essence of spiritual energy surged from the depths of the void, continuously merging into their bodies.
This closed-door cultivation had been going on for quite some time, and soon a hundred days had passed.
After taking two Phoenix Glow Heaven Mending Pills, they were completely refined and absorbed. It was equivalent to saving 1,200 years of arduous cultivation. For Qin Muling at her current level, even under the premise of solidifying her foundation and deliberately suppressing her cultivation level, it was enough to advance to the Divine Spirit Realm Late Stage.
With the assistance of the Spiritual Light of Enlightenment, the cultivation progress of the senior sisters was even faster than Qin Muling herself. Among them, Qi Yalan, who had the strongest strength, should be able to attempt to break through to the Origin Immortal Realm after this closed-door cultivation.
At some point, there appeared a tall and well-proportioned figure outside the Cave Mansion. As she walked, the formations and restrictions along the way closed one after another, allowing her to enter calmly without any disturbance.
"...What a lucky girl."
Mu Yinghua examined their condition and silently pondered. With the unprecedented assistance of the Spiritual Light of Enlightenment, their future path would not encounter any bottlenecks. Their cultivation achievements had the potential to surpass her own and reach even greater heights.
These six individuals in front of her were the future hope of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. Their importance was beyond doubt. Even in the vast Extreme Void Starry Sky, there were few geniuses who could surpass them.
Mu Yinghua gently reached into the range of the Spiritual Light of Enlightenment and sensed its effect. It didn't take much effort for her to conclude that when Qin Muling's cultivation reached the True Self Realm in the future, this Spiritual Light of Enlightenment would be effective for her as well.
If she reached the complete Destiny Realm or stepped into the Immortal Transformation stage, the effect of the Spiritual Light of Enlightenment would likely allow her, as the Supreme Sect Master, to break through to the next realm without any pressure.
However...
Mu Yinghua looked at the five women of Xue Bingxuan. Their current attire was too revealing. Rather than clothing, it was more like a few ribbons and strips of fabric simply wrapped around their voluptuous bodies. And those bold and daring stockings, it was... truly vulgar.
"You brats, how can you dress like this?"
Mu Yinghua felt somewhat annoyed. The dignified saintess of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, a monstrous-level genius, actually dressed like this shamelessly in front of men. If this were to spread, it would tarnish the prestige of the sect. Even she, as the Sect Master, would feel ashamed.
Calculating the time, Mu Yinghua decided to sit on the cloud bed and not leave.
After a day and night, as Qin Muling gradually finished her cultivation, the Spiritual Light of Enlightenment slowly faded away. The five women around her also ended their deep enlightenment state and opened their eyes one after another.
Qin Muling reached out and immediately grabbed Qi Yalan, who was closest to her. Just as she was about to touch her, she turned her head and saw a familiar and majestic figure sitting not far away. She was instantly frightened, her hair standing on end and her blood freezing.
"Disciple, disciple greets Master!"
In an instant, Qin Muling realized and quickly rolled off the cloud bed, bowing down to pay her respects.
The five women of Xue Bingxuan also blushed, hastily taking out their robes from their spatial bracelets and hurriedly putting them on. Being seen by their Master in their current attire made them feel extremely embarrassed.
Mu Yinghua's face turned cold, her tone icy. "You... very well! You really know how to have fun! If people who don't know see you, they would think you are the saintess of Huaqing Divine Palace! It's simply shameless. How did I accept you crazy girls as my direct disciples?"
Qin Muling felt an indescribable embarrassment in her heart. If possible, she felt like she could dig a courtyard with her toes right now.
Is this the feeling of wanting to die?
Taking a deep breath, Qin Muling decided to take the blame: "Master, please understand that this matter has nothing to do with the senior sisters. It was all my foolishness and insistence on forcing them. Everything is my responsibility. Please punish me, Master."
"You..."
Mu Yinghua's voice choked, and the scolding she had been brewing couldn't come out anymore.
With her Supreme Sect Master's intelligence and insight, it was not difficult to guess the cause and effect. Xue Bingxuan and the other four women had followed her for so many years and had always been obedient. If it weren't for the sake of their junior brother's preferences, their behavior would not have been so absurd.
With a sigh, Mu Yinghua finally said, "Muling, your background is extraordinary, and as your teacher, I can't restrict you too much. Anyway, they will all be yours in the future. How you get along privately is not something outsiders have the right to question."
"But you must remember that the sect has never treated you unfairly. I hope you will remember your responsibilities, repay the sect, treat your senior sisters well, and not forget your original intentions."
"Is that all?"
Qin Muling felt relieved and quickly responded, "Teacher, please rest assured, your disciple will remember your teachings, revitalize the sect, and never abandon my senior sisters. I will never let you down."
"Very good."
Mu Yinghua's tone finally softened, with a hint of warmth. "You seem to have endured a lot. But with your current state, it shouldn't be like this... Could it be that my estimation was wrong? I didn't consider this aspect beforehand, and there is no precedent to follow. Perhaps it's necessary to make some changes?"
"???"
Xue Bingxuan and the other girls were confused, but they didn't dare to ask further. It seemed to involve the hidden origins of their junior brother, and besides their teacher, no one else in the sect seemed to know.
After weighing for a few moments, Qin Muling decided to be straightforward, "If you don't mind, Teacher, I can actually do it now. If they don't object, then..."
Qi Yalan's body trembled slightly, instantly understanding Qin Muling's meaning. Her heart pounded like a deer, and she nervously watched their teacher's reaction.
Fortunately, Mu Yinghua showed no signs of anger. "Alright, you can choose one of them as your lifelong partner! I will preside over the ceremony for you, and from then on, you can openly cultivate together without hiding."
As soon as these words were spoken, the senior sisters instinctively tensed up, their five pairs of beautiful eyes fixed on Qin Muling.
Qin Muling looked slightly stunned. "Can't I have all of them?"
Only children make choices, and I... am no longer a child.
Moreover, didn't their teacher decide to keep them all by his side? Why now could she only choose one?
Mu Yinghua sneered, "You have quite an appetite. Have you ever considered the huge gap in cultivation between you and them? If you want all five, do you want to be drained by them together?"
"Well..."
Qin Muling awkwardly touched his nose. Mu Yinghua's words were not pleasant to hear, but they revealed the truth. Although the dual cultivation technique of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace was mutually beneficial, when there was a large gap in cultivation between the partners, one side would inevitably suffer while the other benefited.
Especially since Qin Muling was a man, he naturally had a disadvantaged position in this matter. If the five senior sisters joined forces, according to Mu Yinghua's judgment, he might as well prepare for his own funeral.
"With your current level of cultivation, even choosing one is somewhat difficult," Mu Yinghua said without a doubt. "If you want more, then quickly improve your cultivation. For every major breakthrough, you can add another partner. When you step into the Destiny Realm, all five of them will be yours."
"As for who goes first and who goes last, you can discuss it among yourselves."
"..."
Xue Bingxuan and the other women looked at each other in surprise. They hadn't expected this outcome. Whether they liked it or not, they would have to determine the order in which they would enter the door.
"Junior Martial Brother, take a look..." Cheng Yulan began, but was interrupted by Qin Muling: "All the senior martial sisters are great, and I like them all. But as for who should enter the door first, I think you should discuss it among yourselves to avoid any conflicts. What do you think?"
If Qin Muling were to choose on his own, no matter who he chose, the remaining four senior martial sisters would not be satisfied. They would definitely find ways to trouble him during night classes. So, this life-or-death question must not be touched.
Let them decide for themselves!
Xue Bingxuan glanced at Qin Muling and made up her mind: "Since that's the case, then let me do it."
Luo Wanqing's expression turned cold: "Who do you think you are? Junior Martial Brother is clearly closest to me, so I should be the first."
Qi Yalan gave her a disdainful look: "Can you have some shame when you speak? Junior Martial Brother has never been close to you. Don't forget that when he first came to the mountain, he was wearing my clothes. All this time, we have been sharing clothes, and I have spent the most time with him. Isn't that right, Junior Martial Brother?"
Qin Muling simply sat to the side and said, "Let the senior martial sisters discuss it themselves, or we can ask the Sect Master to decide! I'll just watch and not say anything!"
Cheng Yulan was infuriated. This guy was shameless. It seemed like this matter had nothing to do with him, right?
Luo Huan looked at the eager senior martial sisters and then at Mu Yinghua, who remained silent. She hesitated and said, "Since we can't come to a decision through discussion, let the Sect Master decide!"
After all, they would all be serving the same husband in the future. They had to maintain good relationships and couldn't fight to the death over the order of entering. They didn't want to become a laughingstock.
Luo Wanqing thought about it and finally nodded.
So, the five women bowed to Mu Yinghua together and said, "We respectfully ask the Sect Master to decide!"
Mu Yinghua nodded slightly and said, "In that case, let's draw lots to determine the order. No one is allowed to change their minds afterwards!"
Saying that, a jade tube appeared in front of her, containing six shining ivory divination sticks.
Qi Yalan looked at the tube in surprise. There were clearly only five senior martial sisters present, so why was there an extra divination stick? Who was it prepared for?
Mu Yinghua didn't explain and said, "Alright, who wants to go first?"
Luo Wanqing, impatient, stepped forward and picked a divination stick. "I'll go!"
Then, Cheng Yulan, Qi Yalan, and Xue Bingxuan each drew a stick. Finally, it was Luo Huan's turn. The remaining divination stick naturally had no owner and lay lonely in the tube.
"Open them yourselves!" Mu Yinghua said calmly.
The five senior martial sisters hesitated for a moment, and finally, Luo Wanqing couldn't hold back any longer and opened her divination stick. Then, the others followed suit.
Who did everyone hope would be the first woman for the protagonist?
