Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal?-Chapter 716: Sneaking
Chapter 716: Sneaking
...
The matters were basically settled.
All the sects that came to observe the ceremony chose to follow the Moon Shadow Sect.
Even though some still wanted to struggle a bit, they ultimately went with the majority flow.
It was as if not following the Moon Shadow Sect would turn them into evil path sects in the future.
They were afraid of receiving strange looks from cultivators of other sects.
Some rogue cultivators also wanted to follow the Moon Shadow Sect.
Chen Huaian stated that the Moon Shadow Sect was no longer accepting people—actually, they weren't accepting misshapen melons and cracked dates.
But sects that relocated around the Moon Shadow Sect could widely open their mountain gates to accept disciples—all the misshapen melons and cracked dates could go to other sects!
This was actually a good thing for the various sects.
Although most rogue cultivators were misshapen melons and cracked dates, who would refuse having more workhorses in their sect?
As for the Moon Shadow Sect...
Having most of the Cangyun Realm sects relocate nearby would definitely take away some of the Moon Shadow Sect's spiritual energy. After all, the Moon Shadow Sect now had a sect spirit gathering formation, with the entire sect enveloped in vaporized spiritual energy, resembling an immortal gate.
Some spiritual energy that the Moon Shadow Sect couldn't fully absorb would disperse to the surrounding mountains, continuously improving the nearby natural environment, turning the areas around the Moon Shadow Sect into feng shui treasure lands comparable to the sect's paradise-like caves.
But the Moon Shadow Sect wasn't completely losing out.
Every sect within the Cangyun Realm had their own destiny energy.
When these sects gathered around the Moon Shadow Sect, they would also provide destiny energy to the Moon Shadow Sect.
By that time, all the destiny energy under heaven would belong to the Moon Shadow Sect, and the Moon Shadow Sect's disciples would possess better talents and destiny, making it easier for them to achieve enlightenment during cultivation.
This was clearly a win-win situation.
"Since you all have the idea to relocate your sects near the Moon Shadow Sect, this venerable one naturally won't be stingy."
Chen Huaian looked at Zhang Mengchu and Li Ziping beside him and said calmly, "Elder Zhang, distribute the Void Shattering Realm elders evenly, making sure every sect can safely arrive near our Moon Shadow Sect; Elder Li, clear the demon beasts from the mountains around the Moon Shadow Sect in advance, creating simple practice grounds for the various sects...
There's no need to eliminate all the less aggressive demon beasts.
They can serve as mounts or material resources for the newly arrived sects."
Chen Huaian currently didn't have much goodwill toward the demon race, and allowing ordinary spirits a chance to survive was already being extremely benevolent.
The surrounding sect masters and elders were deeply moved upon hearing Chen Huaian's arrangements.
Sending Void Shattering Realm cultivators to provide escort protection!
This showed how much Senior Chen valued them.
If they hadn't met Senior Chen, they might never have enjoyed the treatment of being escorted by Void Shattering Realm cultivators in their entire lives.
Li Ziping accepted the order and returned to the Moon Shadow Sect, while Zhang Mengchu also arranged the group of Void Shattering Realm elders according to Chen Huaian's requirements. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
Chen Huaian raised his eyes to glance at the sky—the thunder clouds had already dispersed, and that familiar Heavenly Dao's Eye had long disappeared.
But he still felt somewhat uneasy in his heart.
Just as Old Demon Xiao had said, the restrictions of the heavenly laws on cultivators had indeed weakened—the heavenly tribulation lightning even had healing functions now, could you believe that?
And when the tribulation crossing success rate increased, those old monsters at the Great Ascension Stage would inevitably change their mentality—from simply surviving to desperately wanting to become immortals by any means necessary.
And the preparations before tribulation crossing required considerable resources.
Whether it was pills or magic treasures, they all provided significant bonuses to tribulation crossing success rates...
Currently, the wealthiest in the Cangyun Realm was the Moon Shadow Sect. Hopefully, after sending off the Five Great Demon Saints, these old monsters wouldn't come to the Moon Shadow Sect for free meals.
When human cultivators were besieged by the demon race earlier, these old monsters had stood by and done nothing, which already made him sense something was wrong.
After all... when people become selfish to a certain extent, what wouldn't they do?
As the saying goes.
Those not of our kind must have different hearts.
But these old scoundrels, Chen Huaian didn't think they were any good either.
Their nature wasn't much different from those demon races.
"Better not come looking for trouble at my Moon Shadow Sect..."
Chen Huaian snorted coldly.
After reaching the Second Tribulation of the Great Ascension Stage, his perception of heaven and earth's destiny had become more acute.
He had gained something like a sixth sense of foresight.
Even though some things hadn't happened yet, that premonition of causal connection had already brought a hint of killing intent.
Fortunately, the Electronic Girlfriend game now had a two-way notification system.
No matter which side he was on, if problems occurred on the other side, he would immediately receive notifications here.
Half an hour later, the cultivators from various sects had left, and the Moon Shadow Sect disciples had also returned under the elders' leadership.
Only Chen Huaian remained, pretending to sit in meditation to heal his injuries.
"Master!" Li Qingran stood with hands on hips, pouting as she stared at Chen Huaian who kept his eyes closed and remained silent, her pretty face full of resentment.
Chen Huaian's eyebrows twitched slightly as he pretended not to hear.
"Master is deceiving your disciple again!" Seeing that Chen Huaian was still playing dumb, Li Qingran walked up to him and crouched down, her big eyes blinking without pause.
Even with his eyes closed, Chen Huaian could see Li Qingran.
This little girl was puffing her cheeks, glaring with wide eyes, making soft whimpering sounds like a puppy.
After being stared at for a long time, Chen Huaian couldn't hold out any longer.
He could only helplessly open his eyes and pinch his little disciple's soft, tender cheek.
"Your master didn't intentionally deceive you, this was just handling special circumstances with special methods. To deceive those old foxes, we first had to deceive our own people.
You care about your master the most and understand your master the best. If your master managed to deceive you, it means others were deceived too."
"Hmph!" Upon hearing this, the indignation on Li Qingran's face diminished somewhat, but clearly what Chen Huaian said wasn't enough for her.
"I don't care!" She let Chen Huaian continue pinching her cheek while extending her small hand in front of him. "Master, you need to compensate your disciple."
Chen Huaian was already used to this.
Asking for compensation had almost become a form of flirtation between them.
"Speak, what compensation do you want?" Chen Huaian gently tapped Li Qingran's nose. "Do you want the stars in the sky? Your master will pick them for you?"
"What use are stars in the sky? They can't protect Master's safety." Li Qingran shook her head. "Your disciple doesn't want that."
Chen Huaian wasn't joking.
He really could pick the stars from the Cangyun Realm for Li Qingran.
But as everyone knows, stars are just massive meteorites.
They only look beautiful when hanging in the sky—once they fall to the ground, they're just dull, gray lumps.
"These master and disciple are quite interesting~"
In a certain corner, Old Ancestor Qingyun Rong Qingyun was peeking from behind a rock, her aura concealed by a concealment treasure.
She wasn't certain whether her innate spiritual treasure could deceive heaven itself—she was just a young woman earnestly pursuing true love.
Even if Chen Huaian detected her, it didn't matter.
She had already prepared her excuse—coming on behalf of her son Qingxuan Daoist to apologize to Li Qingran.
However, based on the current situation, her concealment treasure seemed quite effective.
The distance to Senior Chen was less than a hundred zhang, yet Senior Chen showed no signs of detection.
Rong Qingyun didn't approach any closer.
This distance was enough for her to properly admire Senior Chen's magnificent appearance~
