Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law-Chapter 450: The Cooperation of the Hehuan Sect
Zhou Mengyue and her party of six directly entered the great hall.
Two young girls and four mature beauties whose charm was still evident.
All six radiated an allure that was difficult for anyone to extricate themselves from.
Whether it was their faces or figures, they were rare beauties seldom seen in the mortal realm.
Zhao Qiming and the others couldn’t help but be stunned upon seeing them, and joy immediately appeared on their faces.
One of the two young girls, upon seeing Zhao Qiming, threw herself at him, plunging into his embrace.
"Zhao Lang, I’ve missed you so much." The girl pouted her tender, cherry lips and coquettishly complained with a flirtatious expression.
Zhao Qiming wrapped his arms around the girl’s slender waist, a smug smile on his face as he said, "Good girl, once we leave the Heavenly Star Palace, I’ll take you back to Yuheng Heaven, and then you can serve me every day."
"Really?" the girl immediately exclaimed with joy.
"Of course, it’s true," Zhao Qiming said with a smug smile.
Yet, his gaze drifted towards Zhou Mengyue and the four mature beauties nearby.
He inwardly marveled, "Tsk tsk, the Hehuan Sect truly is a cloud of beauties, each one a superior grade, especially their skills in bed, they’re simply irresistible; if I could have this sect under my control, it would be absolute paradise on earth."
Despite Zhao Qiming’s burning gaze, the four mature beauties didn’t mind at all, even secretly showing off their own seductive charms.
Zhou Mengyue, however, frowned slightly, a trace of displeasure arising in her heart.
If it had been in the past, she would have been proud.
But now, seeing how powerful she had become, she suddenly felt that what she used to take pride in was so easily shattered.
Especially men like these, who had their minds filled with women, they seemed too superficial for her taste.
"That’s great, Zhao Lang, I knew you were the best to me. Come, let me introduce you to the elders of my sect. These four are elders of the Hehuan Sect, all are Eighth Rank Cultivators," the girl introduced excitedly.
"I have seen the four elders, truly peerless beauties. Seeing you today has truly opened Qiming’s eyes," Zhao Qiming nodded slightly and gave a minimal bow.
"You flatter us, Young Master Zhao. We are but plain women with ordinary grace," said one of the mature beauties, with a golden hairpin in her hair and dressed in a magnificent palace attire.
"The elders are too modest. And this lady is?" Zhao Qiming turned his attention to Zhou Mengyue standing to the side.
He had noticed Zhou Mengyue early on because she was the most beautiful among them.
Especially Zhou Mengyue’s Innate Enchanting Physique, which to a man, was nothing short of poison.
Upon hearing Zhao Qiming’s inquiry about Zhou Mengyue, the young lady’s face suddenly looked a bit displeased as she introduced her unwillingly, "This is the Saintess of our Hehuan Sect, named Zhou Mengyue. It is said that she and Xu Ping’an, were married for one night."
"Xu Ping’an?" Zhao Qiming’s eyes narrowed at once, and he looked at Zhou Mengyue with an undisguised greedy desire.
To sleep with the woman who had made him lose face in the past, wouldn’t that be incredibly satisfying?
Zhou Mengyue saw the greed in Zhao Qiming’s eyes and a flicker of disgust appeared in hers.
"Young Master Zhao, don’t listen to Li Shuang’s nonsense. The Saintess is still a virgin to this day. She and Xu Ping’an only had a wedding ceremony in the past, but there was no marital consummation," the leading beauty in palace attire said.
"So, it’s like that. Saintess Zhou, my name is Zhao Qiming, I am the heavenly grandson of the Heavenly Master of Yuheng Heaven," Zhao Qiming immediately said to Zhou Mengyue.
Zhou Mengyue was the Saintess, which meant she was the future Sect Master of Hehuan Sect.
If he could win her over, wouldn’t it mean that he could have control over the Hehuan Sect?
Moreover, Zhou Mengyue had some sort of wedding ceremony with Xu Ping’an.

With this, Zhao Qiming’s interest in Zhou Mengyue intensified.
The girl named Li Shuang saw Zhao Qiming’s intention and glared fiercely at Zhou Mengyue.
In her view, she was no less than Zhou Mengyue, yet the position of Saintess had been snatched away by Zhou Mengyue, and now even the man she fancied was interested in Zhou Mengyue.
How could she not feel jealous?
"Zhao Lang, didn’t you say you want to collaborate with our Hehuan Sect? Let’s focus on the matter at hand," Li Shuang immediately steered the conversation back on track.
"Qiming, indeed, let’s discuss serious matters," Ye Tianxing, who had been silent until now, also stepped forward to speak.
Upon hearing Ye’s remark, Zhao Qiming finally suppressed the desire in his heart and began addressing the palace-dressed beauty, "This time, I mainly wish to represent Yuheng Heaven and seek collaboration with the Hehuan Sect. I wonder if the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect has arrived?"
"The Sect Master is here, but she won’t show herself easily," the palace-dressed beauty said with a smile.
In the shadows, Xu Ping’an was taken aback.
The Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect had actually come?
The outside world rumored that the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect was of Eighth Rank, but now, in Xu Ping’an’s view, the Sect Master was definitely more than Eighth Rank.
At least a Ninth Rank Expert, especially since these four people are all Eighth Rank Cultivators, and the palace-dressed beauty is already at the Peak of Eighth Rank.
How could the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect be inferior?
"Oh? The Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect is personally here? Why haven’t we seen her?" Ye Tianxing also began to take the matter seriously.
Without the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect, the Hehuan Sect had no right to collaborate with them.
But since the Sect Master herself had come, that was a different matter.
"The Sect Master excels in hiding her identity. She has come in under a different guise, but when the time is right, she will reveal herself," the palace-dressed beauty said with a laugh.
Ye Tianxing nodded, "I have long heard that the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect can change her appearance unpredictably, able to disguise herself as anyone, such that even Tenth Rank Experts cannot easily detect her. It seems the rumors are true."
In the shadows, Xu Ping’an was astonished.
The Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect had concealed her identity upon entering?
Who could it be?
It couldn’t be someone he had encountered, could it?
Thinking thus, Xu Ping’an couldn’t help but look towards Gu Lingyan.
"Don’t look at me; I am certainly not the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect," Gu Lingyan said with a look of disdain.
Xu Ping’an nodded, indeed feeling that he might be jumping at shadows.
Gu Lingyan had the Heavenly Fiendish Body, a physique not easily impersonated.
"As long as it’s not someone close to me, that’s all right," Xu Ping’an said to himself.
However, he was curious about what Yuheng Heaven was planning to do with the Hehuan Sect.
"Since the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect is personally here, then we can indeed collaborate on this matter," Ye Tianxing said.
"Do you really have the confidence to seize the Qi fortune of the Holy Heavenly Sect?" the palace-dressed beauty asked in surprise.
"Yes, we have already set up the Heaven Seizing Great Formation. Once the formation is activated, we can seize the Qi fortune of the Holy Heavenly Sect. But there is a difficulty now, which is the need for a container. Otherwise, once the Qi fortune is extracted, it could easily dissipate," Zhao Qiming immediately explained.
"What do you need us to do?" the palace-dressed beauty asked.
"We would like to invite Saintess Zhou Mengyue to be the container for this Qi fortune, because the recipient of the Qi fortune must be a living being, and moreover someone with profound destiny," Zhao Qiming said, looking at Zhou Mengyue.
Zhou Mengyue was startled.
To be the container for the Qi fortune?
This was not what they had said when she came.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Qiming spoke, Li Shuang became agitated and anxiously said, "Zhao Lang, didn’t you say before that I would be the Qi fortune container, so that I could go back to the Yuheng Sect with you? Why are you asking her now?"
All of a sudden, everyone’s eyes turned to Zhao Qiming.
Even Xu Ping’an in the shadows was slightly surprised.
