Chapter 159: Chapter 158: The Golden Finger of Fairy Eternity_1

Translator: 549690339

Fairy Eternity feels that the Five Elements Sect’s loss was unjust as she knows Yun Zhi’s caliber very well.

Once her power is fully restored, Yun Zhi is eligible to be her contender, and perhaps they might even score a tie, with both victory and defeat being plausible.

If Yun Zhi were sent to face the Five Elements Sect, wouldn’t he have dominated utterly? It would be a wonder if the Five Elements Sect accepted such defeat.

Lu Yang thought to himself, with both Yingtian Immortal and Immortal Jiuchong as worthy contenders, given your powers, how did you die in the first place?

Fairy Eternity, engrossed in the feeling of becoming a Sect Leader, didn’t notice Lu Yang’s expression in her spiritual space.

Taking up the responsibility to soothe everyone’s emotions, she speculated: “Since all Five Great Immortal Sects are considered as close as limbs, I think there’s no need for us to treat the Five Elements Sect this way.”

Second Elder scoffed, “Indeed, we are the hand, and the Five Elements Sect is the foot. The hand and foot do not intersect, so how can there be sentiments?”

Discreetly, Fairy Eternity asked the Sixth Elder Feng Ya, “Does the Second Elder have a grudge against the Five Elements Sect?”

Given that the Sixth Elder was attending as an illusion, there were no issues with communicating through thoughts.

After some deliberation, the Sixth Elder found it inappropriate to hide the truth from the acting Sect Leader. “When the Second Brother was young, he fell in love with a woman named Shangguan Yu. Although he confessed his feelings, Shangguan Yu turned him down directly.”

Second Brother happened to discover that Shangguan Yu and Qiu Jin’an were sharing intimate conversations, as if they were planning to get married.”

Qiu Jin’an is now the Sect Leader of the Five Elements Sect.

Since then, the Second Elder held a grudge against the Five Elements Sect.”

Fairy Eternity furrowed her brow, realizing that such matters were indeed difficult to handle.

She cleared her throat and said, “After all, we are the hosts and the Five Elements Sect our guests. The essential courtesies and process for treating the Five Elements Sect must be maintained.”

“I have devised a simple event program, which requires the cooperation of all the elders.”

“The welcoming ceremony will be held at the Martial Arts Plaza. It’s big enough to hold the crowd and is near our mountain peaks.”

The central region of the Seek Dao Sect comprises nine mountain peaks, with one for the Sect Leader and eight for the Elders. Arranged like a lotus flower, the heart of the circle is the most lively area with taverns, bookshops, fashion outlets, and other large stores for disciples to relax. There are also trial sites, like the puppet field, for disciples to train their physical skills. But the largest among them is the Martial Arts Plaza.

The Martial Arts Plaza most commonly serves as a place for disciples to compete. The entire stage is sturdily crafted and intricate, making it resistant to devastation. Ensconced in an array method, even severe collisions won’t damage it. Even if it’s managed to get damaged, it can automatically repair itself. The array method also ensures that the disciples’ combat won’t affect bystanders.

“Fourth Elder, you’ve always been meticulous and have a certain understanding of array methods. Could you check the array method of the Martial Arts Plaza for any loopholes or vacant areas, and to make sure it can withstand continuous high-intensity collisions? ”

“Sure.”

“Once the two sides have finished their speeches, it should be noon. It’s a perfect time to strengthen bonds over a meal. As it happens, I recently got a hold of an immortal’s scroll. It contains unique recipes which I plan to demonstrate in public during the visit of the Five Elements Sect.”

Fairy Eternity immediately volunteered to take care of the cooking.

“The competition part follows next. The preliminary plan is to categorize it into four sections, namely the Foundation Establishment Stage, Golden Core Stage, Nascent Soul Stage, and Divinity Transformation Stage.”

The categories proposed by Fairy Eternity seem fair and will prevent an overpowering contestant like Yun Zhi from dominating the event.

“Grand Elder, with the Five Elements Sect’s visit, there’s expected to be a surge in customers to the tavern and other places which may lead to a hike in prices. At that time, please make sure to deploy patrols to prevent such incidents.”

“There will also be disciples who enjoy gambling and they would most likely seize this opportunity to run underground casinos. Grand Elder, please take note of this and take appropriate actions, including closing these casinos or imposing strict penalties if necessary.”

“Third Elder, there might be conflicts due to the large number of people moving around during the exchange event. It’d be great if you could assign some disciples to maintain order at the venue.”

“Fifth Elder, could you refine the four-sided displays that can broadcast the competitions held at the Martial Arts Plaza live, so everyone can watch?”

All the Elders agreed with Fairy Eternity’s well-thought-out and careful arrangements.

Fairy Eternity proceeded with her mission systematically, which was thanks to her whole night of hard work—primarily in persuading Lu Yang to lend a helping hand.

With no other choice, Lu Yang became the temporary supporting brain for the Acting Sect Leader, providing strategic guidance.

Lu Yang, being the magical trump card of Yellow Bean, is always available to help during crucial times.

Fairy Eternity continued assigning tasks: “Seventh Elder, you should refine some more elixirs, mainly those that can save lives, heal wounds, and neutralize poison.”

The Seventh Elder hesitated for a moment and then agreed, “Sure, but the disciples usually have control over their power and won’t seriously harm each other during friendly sparring. So, this kind of elixir might not come in handy.”

Fairy Eternity thought for a moment, and then asked Lu Yang in her spiritual space, “Why do you want him to refine these elixirs?”

“Fear of food poisoning.”

Upon hearing this, Fairy Eternity exclaimed, suddenly realized what she just said, and then plunged into silence.

After coming to her senses in the spiritual space, Fairy Eternity glared at Lu Yang. Lu Yang could only respond by shrugging his shoulders innocently.

Once the exchange with the disciples is over, according to the plan, the Eternity Sect will launch a sneak attack on us, Fairy Eternity finally stated.

The Elders all blanked out for a moment. What did she mean by ‘according to the plan, the Eternity Sect will attack’? Who made this plan?

Fairy Eternity seriously said, “We have a deep mole planted in the Eternity Sect that holds a high position and has access to some of their plans.”

Lu Yang sneered to himself, as the mole had developed deep roots indeed.

“According to reliable information, this time the Eternity Sect will dispatch two Deputy Masters and five top-notch elites.”

The Deputy Masters of the Eternity Sect are at the Unification level. However, without immortal treasures, they wouldn’t be capable of causing a ruckus in the Seek Dao Sect.

The Unification level of the Seek Dao Sect naturally isn’t restricted to the Sect Leader and eight Elders.

‘Nine sons of the Seek Dao Sect’ refers to the nine most outstanding figures among their generation, it doesn’t mean that there were only nine in that generation.

Rest of them might be out executing tasks, guarding treasures somewhere within the Seek Dao Sect, or are semi-retired, revealing themselves only on rare occasions.

“At that time, I will arrange for someone to monitor the Eternity Sect. If anyone yells ‘Attack’, we all act together, capture the people from the Eternity Sect, and don’t be too hard on them—we want to capture them alive as much as possible,” Fairy Eternity concluded.

…

After the meeting ended, the Elders began to act according to the tasks assigned to them.

Lu Yang brought the event plan and left the Seek Dao Sect, once again finding Tang Yunsheng.

“Inspector Tang, I’ve brought the event plan of the Seek Dao Sect. All the information enclosed here is publicly available and won’t be hard to decipher.”

Tang Yunsheng was elated, but a bit puzzled after reading the event plan.

“How are the details almost similar to the event plan I imagined?”

“That shows your calculations were accurate!”

Tang Yunsheng didn’t give it much thought as he took it for a coincidence.

Lu Yang continued, “I think we should have a signal for when we act. For instance, when the Deputy Master shouts ‘Attack’, we all act together and catch the Seek Dao Sect off guard!”

Tang Yunsheng nodded, agreeing with Lu Yang’s suggestion.
