Chapter 47: First Make the Imperial Advisor Leave

Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“I did come here today to check on Xiaoyu’s condition. Seeing that Xiaoyu is happy here and her cultivation has improved, I am very gratified!” Huang Tianchi said bashfully.

He didn’t know whether Jiang Yiming was really muddle-headed or pretending to be muddle-headed. For a moment, he didn’t know how to pick up the topic.

“Not only have you neutralized the Huoyun Sect’s attack by yourself yesterday, but you have even defeated the Huoyun Sect’s elder who had reached the Incarnation Realm. You didn’t even leave his primordial spirit behind!” Huang Tianchi smiled obsequiously as he praised, “It is true that the younger

generation is more formidable! With sect leader Jiang’s talent and strength, even an old man like me who has one foot in the coffin can only sigh in admiration!”

“Imperial Advisor, you don’t have to say such unlucky words. Both of us are in the Nascent Soul Realm, and our lifespans are not short. If we concentrate on cultivation and are lucky enough to encounter some opportunities, it won’t be difficult for us to break through to the Incarnation or even the Fusion

Realm! Imperial Advisor, if you don’t mind the shabbiness of my sect and would like to come and cultivate as well as communicate sometimes, I won’t refuse.”

Jiang Yiming was good at this! He had come to be a lobbyist, but he didn’t expect that Jiang Yiming would try to rope him in instead!

“Oh my, oh my! It’s my fault for talking too much! My fault! The battle yesterday has consumed a lot of my energy, and my mind is now a little muddled. How dare I say such disrespectful words! I deserve to die! I do!” While Huang Tianchi was still thinking, Jiang Yiming quickly began blaming himself.

Huang Tianchi couldn’t help but wonder what exactly was the brat up to.

Jiang Yiming continued, “You and I are both men. We should be like the pine tree here in my sect, unyielding and indomitable! A true man should stand straight and tall between Heaven and Earth! How can he be under others? Imperial Advisor, what do you think? I was just spouting nonsense just now.

You are a magnanimous person, Imperial Advisor, you won’t hold it against me, right?”

After Jiang Yiming finished speaking, his words made Huang Tianchi frozen on the spot. His sentences had retreated to advance, and he had turned from defense to attacking! Not only was Jiang Yiming powerful and talented, but he was also well-versed in the way of words!

If Huang Tianchi were to ask about the matter of drawing them to their side now, it would instead make him appear unreasonable and slow-witted.

“Sect leader Jiang is right. Listening to your words, I feel as though I have seen the light! I still have important matters to attend to, so please allow me to take my leave first!”

“Since you insist on leaving, I will not persuade you to stay. Xiaoyu! Send the Imperial Advisor on his way!”

Xiaoyu stood up and sent Huang Tianchi to the sect gates.

“Xiaoyu, your Master is not simple. If you can continue cultivating with him, you will most certainly have a bright future. I will report to your father when I go back that there is no need for him to worry too much about you,” Huang Tianchi looked at Huang Chaoyu and sighed.

This was as well. To have been able to meet such a Master could be considered Xiaoyu’s fortuitous encounter.

Looking at the momentum of development of the Lingyun Sect, even if the Divine Pheonix Empire couldn’t directly take it for their use, they mustn’t offend it.

Huang Tianchi’s visit reminded Jiang Yiming of this matter.

Previously, the Huoyun Sect could be considered a third rank force in this place. As such, it governed small towns or fifth rank sects like the Lingyun Sect.

However, now that Huoyun Sect had lost all its elites, its influence could be said to be worlds apart from the past.

The reason why the Divine Phoenix Empire had sent a lobbyist here today was to carry out the division of territories before everyone else.

So what should he do now?

“Master! Someone is here to see you again!” Shangguan Qingyun’s voice once again interrupted Jiang Yiming’s thoughts.

“I’ve said that I won’t be taking in any disciples these days!”

“Not all of them are here to ask you to be their Master.”

They?

“Most of them claim to be sect leaders and stuff, saying that no matter what, they’re here to see you!”

Jiang Yiming suddenly came to a realization. This was the second day after the battle, and these people were all here to seek his protection!

“Let them in!” As soon as Jiang Yiming said this, a group of people rushed in from outside the door.

Some rushed over and tried to stuff things into Jiang Yiming’s hand, while some even knelt before Jiang Yiming with a thud.

“The almighty Sect Leader Lingyun!”

“Sect Leader Lingyun is really a God! I come to congratulate you on your great destruction of the Huoyun Sect!”

“Sect Leader, you’re very handsome, like a celestial being! Please accept my bow!”

For a moment, heads bopped up and down within the sect and noises were everywhere as everyone tried to get an audience with the sect leader.

It was useless to say anything at this time. Jiang Yiming was too lazy to waste his breath.

The spiritual energy pressure instantly spread throughout the entire Lingyun Sect.

Feeling this powerful pressure, the crowd immediately became silent.

They knelt in unison.

After all, the Lingyun Sect’s sect leader before them had single-handedly crushed an Incarnation Realm expert!

With his combat strength at such a realm, themselves being Foundation Establishment or Core Formation cultivators, they were just like ants before him!

“You, raise your head,” Jiang Yiming found the guy that was kneeling with his head bowed before him somewhat familiar, so he ordered the person to raise his head, having the vague feeling that he might have seen him in the battle yesterday.

“Sect leader, please accept my bow! I am the sect leader of the Yanyan Sect! I have been cultivating diligently, but my talent is lacking, so I’m only at the Core Formation Realm now. If I can obtain the protection of the great Lingyun Sect, I will definitely…”

Before he could finish his words, sharp spiritual energy had struck his chest. With a light strike, he was no longer alive.

“You unscrupulous bastard, since you can betray the Huoyun Sect today, you can also betray me in the future,” Jiang Yiming said softly.

Everyone was as silent as a winter cicada.

The corpse in front of them had already reached the Core Formation Realm, which was considered to be a pretty good realm between them.

“If you want to seek my protection, what I need you to offer me is not spirit stones. There is only one thing you need to give me, and that is your trust. From now on, all of you are under the jurisdiction of the Lingyun Sect.”

‘When everyone heard Jiang Yiming’s agreement, they all bowed thrice and kowtowed nine times.

“However, the Lingyun Sect will not tolerate any disloyalty. I will not be courteous towards anyone who has unfaithfulness.”

“Master! Are we really not going to ask for any offerings?!”

“Lhave my plans, you don’t have to question my decisions.”

The few disciples had still wanted to say somethinge, but when they thought of the newly added pavilions and buildings in the sect, they realized that their Master should already have a plan.

As for Jiang Yiming, he was not worried about having too few people and not being able to handle the forces below. After all, his move just now could already be considered as a warning to the others.

‘With him being a sect leader with an unfathomable realm, if anyone wanted to die, they could come over and try him out.

“If there’s nothing else, please leave. Don’t disturb my cultivation,” Jiang Yiming stood up and waved his hand to dismiss the various sect leaders of the small sects.

After dealing with the matters of the existing disciples in the sect, the sect would need more disciples.

If these loyal disciples of his could advance to a higher realm, they would then be able to graduate from his tutelage. At that time, he wouldn’t need to worry so much about them..
