The Immortal Fairy felt that the Five Elements Sect was wronged in their loss. She knew Yun Zhi’s capabilities better than anyone.
Once she fully recovered her strength, Yun Zhi would be qualified to be her opponent. There was even a chance they could be evenly matched, with the outcome uncertain.
Sending someone like Yun Zhi to fight the Five Elements Sect, wouldn’t that be like bullying a grandson? It would be a miracle if the Five Elements Sect accepted their defeat.
Lu Yang thought to himself, “Fairy, stop boasting. The Heavenly Immortal is qualified to be your opponent, the Ninefold Immortal is qualified to be your opponent. If you’re so capable, how did you die in the first place?”
The Immortal Fairy was enjoying the feeling of being the sect leader and didn’t notice Lu Yang’s expression in her spiritual space.
She tried to ease everyone’s mood, “We always say that the five major immortal sects are like brothers. I don’t think we need to treat the Five Elements Sect this way.”
The second elder sneered, “Yes, we are the hand, and the Five Elements Sect is the foot. Hands and feet don’t intersect, where is the camaraderie?”
The Immortal Fairy quietly asked the sixth elder, Feng Ya, “Does the second elder have any conflicts with the Five Elements Sect?”
The sixth elder was a phantom, so there was no need to hold his breath to communicate telepathically.
The sixth elder thought for a moment, feeling that although this was something that couldn’t be said, there was no reason to hide it from the acting sect leader, “When the second elder was young, he fell in love with a woman named Shangguan Yu. He confessed his feelings, but Shangguan Yu did not agree and directly rejected the second elder’s love.”
“The second elder accidentally discovered that Shangguan Yu and Qiu Jin’an were whispering to each other, their relationship intimate, as if they were about to get married.”
Qiu Jin’an is the current sect leader of the Five Elements Sect.
“Since then, the second elder has been displeased with the Five Elements Sect.”
The Immortal Fairy frowned, this kind of thing was indeed difficult to handle.
She cleared her throat and said, “After all, we are the hosts and the Five Elements Sect are our guests. We should still maintain the necessary etiquette and procedures when dealing with the Five Elements Sect.”
“I have prepared a simple event plan and need the cooperation of all the elders.”
“The welcome ceremony will be held in the martial arts square. The place is large enough to accommodate everyone and is close to our peaks.”
The core area of the Seek Tao Sect is nine peaks, one for the sect leader and eight for the elders. The nine peaks form a lotus shape, with the center of the lotus being the most bustling and lively. There are large shops such as restaurants, bookstores, and clothing stores for disciples to relax and entertain themselves. There are also trial fields, puppet fields, and other places for disciples to exercise their bodies. The largest of these is the martial arts square.
The martial arts square is most commonly used for disciples to compete against each other. The entire platform has been refined, making it hard and difficult to destroy. It is covered by layers of formations, preventing it from being damaged by intense collisions. Even if it is damaged, it can automatically repair itself. The formation also ensures that the disciples’ fights will not affect bystanders, making it perfect.
“Fourth elder, you are the most meticulous and have a certain understanding of formations. You go and check the formation of the martial arts square for any loopholes and gaps, and whether it can withstand continuous high-intensity collisions.”
“Okay.”
“After the speeches from both sides, it will probably be noon. It’s a good time to bond over a meal. I happened to obtain a manual from an immortal, which records unique ways to prepare food. I’ll take this opportunity to showcase it when the Five Elements Sect comes.”
The Immortal Fairy took on the task of cooking.
“Then there’s the competition part. My initial plan is to divide it into four small parts according to the cultivation stages: Foundation Establishment, Golden Elixir, Elemental Infant, and Heavenly Immortal.”
The Immortal Fairy’s division was quite reasonable, preventing the situation where Yun Zhi would dominate the entire field.
“First elder, with the visit of the Five Elements Sect, the customer flow in restaurants and other places will increase. There may be a problem of price gouging. Please send people to patrol at that time to prevent this from happening.”
“Also, some disciples like to gamble and may take this opportunity to open underground gambling dens. First elder, you also need to pay attention to this and close them down and punish them if necessary.”
“Third elder, during the exchange period, there will be a large flow of people and conflicts may inevitably occur. You need to send disciples to maintain order at the scene.”
“Fifth elder, you refine four screens that can broadcast the competitions happening in the martial arts square in real-time, so everyone can see.”
The elders nodded, feeling that the Immortal Fairy’s arrangements were reasonable and thoughtful.
The Immortal Fairy arranged the tasks methodically, all thanks to her efforts throughout the night – mainly begging Lu Yang for help.
Lu Yang had no choice but to act as the external brain for the temporary acting sect leader, providing advice and strategies.
Lu Yang, as Huang Dou Dou’s golden finger, was able to provide help at critical moments.
The Immortal Fairy continued to assign tasks, “Seventh elder, you refine more pills, mainly those that can save lives, heal injuries, and detoxify.”
The seventh elder hesitated for a moment, then nodded, “Of course, it’s possible. However, the disciples are usually careful when they spar and won’t go for the kill, so these pills won’t be needed.”
The Immortal Fairy thought about it and agreed, then asked Lu Yang in her spiritual space, “Why do you want him to refine these pills?”
“For fear of food poisoning.”
The Immortal Fairy responded, left her spiritual space, and said to the seventh elder, “For fear of food poisoning… wait a minute…”
The Immortal Fairy reacted and glared at Lu Yang in her spiritual space. Lu Yang innocently shrugged.”After the disciples’ exchange, as planned, the Immortal Church will launch a surprise attack on us.”
The elders were taken aback. What did it mean that the Immortal Church’s attack was part of the plan? Was the plan made by them?
The Immortal Fairy said seriously, “We have planted a mole in the Immortal Church, who holds a high position and knows part of the Church’s plan.”
Lu Yang thought to himself, so that’s it, the mole has even infiltrated their faith.
“According to reliable information, the Immortal Church will dispatch two deputy leaders and five high-ranking members this time.”
The deputy leaders of the Immortal Church are at the Unity stage of cultivation. However, if they don’t have any immortal treasures, they won’t be able to make any waves in the Seek Tao Sect.
The Seek Tao Sect’s Unity stage cultivators are not just the sect leader and eight elders.
The Nine Sons of the Seek Tao Sect refers to the nine most outstanding individuals among their generation, not that there were only nine people in that generation.
Some of the others are out on missions, some are guarding treasures somewhere in the Seek Tao Sect, and some don’t want to work and are semi-retired, rarely showing up.
“When the time comes, I will arrange for someone to observe the Immortal Church’s actions. If anyone shouts ‘Attack’, we will all attack together, capture the people of the Immortal Church, and try not to be too harsh, we should try to capture them alive.” The Immortal Fairy finally said.
……
After the meeting, the elders acted according to their assigned tasks.
Lu Yang, with the activity plan, left the Seek Tao Sect and found Tang Yunsheng again.
“Inspector Tang, I’ve brought the activity plan of the Seek Tao Sect. These are all public and easy to obtain.”
Tang Yunsheng was overjoyed, but after reading the activity plan, he was a bit puzzled.
“Why is it similar to the activity plan I imagined?”
“That shows how accurate your calculations are!”
Tang Yunsheng didn’t think much of it, just considering it a coincidence.
Lu Yang continued, “I think we should have a signal when we act. For example, when the deputy leader shouts ‘Attack’, everyone will act together and catch the Seek Tao Sect off guard!”
Tang Yunsheng nodded, agreeing with Lu Yang’s suggestion.
