Chapter 143: Vanessa giving in

With her right index finger tapping onto the chair’s armrest, Luneth said leisurely.

“Sure, let’s start discussing on our future plans. But before we do that…”

After pausing for a moment, Luneth looked over to Vanessa, then continued speaking.

“Just to be clear, are you all sure that Vanessa won’t end up revealing Sebastian’s sperm strengthening body to Ning Zhi much earlier than you all are intending to?”

“After all, isn’t Vanessa a direct disciple of Ning Zhi’s?”

Right as Luneth finished speaking, everyone turned their gaze over to Vanessa, and from the looks of things, Luneth’s question made sense, as currently, Vanessa had a contemplated look on her face, seemingly as if she were put in a tight spot.

On one side, it was her master who had been present in her life for most of her life, but on the other hand, it was her birth mother and the Lisandris Family.

Upon seeing the contemplated look that Vanessa had on her face, Veronica opened her mouth to break the silence.

“Vanessa, isn’t this what you had always hoped for? Me getting along with the Lisandris Family?”

“Look, it’s not like we are trying to hide Sebastian’s sperm strengthening body from your master forever.”

“After listening to everything that I had said just a while ago, you should be aware that I’m intending to get your master to join as allies with the Lisandris Family and Mooncrown Family, right?”

“Therefore, you don’t have to feel as if you are betraying your master by keeping Sebastian’s sperm strengthening body a secret from her.”

“After a year or two, and perhaps, if the chaos within North Continent is much more chaotic than we imagined, we will reveal to your master about Sebastian’s sperm strengthening body in just a few months’ time.”

“So, all you have to do, is to not reveal Sebastian’s sperm strengthening body to your master, until we feel that it is time for us to do so.”

“Can you do this, Vanessa? Not only for my sake, but also for the Lisandris Family’s sake.”

Right as Veronica finished speaking, Vanessa could be seen still having a contemplated look on her face.

And upon seeing that, Veronica looked over to Coril and made a gesture with her face by frowning her brows at Coril, then moving her brows in Vanessa’s direction, evidently to be gesturing for Coril to give a final push to Vanessa.

Upon seeing the look that Veronica gave to him, Coril immediately understood what Veronica was trying to say to him.

And thus, Coril immediately put on an amicable look on his face, then opened his mouth and said with a gentle tone to Vanessa, “Vanessa, both the Lisandris Family and I have treated you well, didn’t we?”

“And even when you were staying in the Bright Moon Sect, didn’t I always look out for you as much as I possibly could?”

“Vanessa, do you remember, back then when you were still 10 years old, I…”

From the looks of things, Veronica was trying to tackle Vanessa’s mind with logic, while Coril was trying to do it by guilt-tripping Vanessa.

And looking at the way Vanessa looked over Coril, Henry, and Damien, who were all Lisandris Family’s members, followed by lowering her head down and staring at the table before her, it would seem that Coril’s guilt-tripping was working.

“Do you also remember, when you break through and become an official talisman crafter, I…”

While Coril was speaking, seemingly to have come to a decision, Vanessa raised her head and looked over to Coril, then said speechlessly while with a helpless look on her face, “Fine, fine, I get it already, you don’t have to keep going on about it, Ancestor Coril.”

In actuality, Vanessa was one of the great grandchildren that Coril allowed to let address him as Great Grandpa Coril, but because of the personality that Vanessa possessed, whereby she was always serious…

Vanessa chose to strictly follow along the typical cultivation family’s rules and thus would only allow herself to address Coril as Great Grandpa Coril only when she had broke through to becoming a golden core realm cultivator.

Right after Vanessa was done speaking to Coril, Vanessa glanced her eyes over everyone within the conference room, then said helplessly after letting out a sigh.

“Sigh…”

“I will give all of you my word that I won’t reveal Sebastian’s sperm strengthening body to my master.”

“However…!”

“I’m also not going to lie to my master.”

“Thus, if my master asked me any questions about Sebastian, I will just tell my master that I had promised all of you that I won’t reveal any information regarding Sebastian to her.”

“This should be enough, right?”

Right as Vanessa finished speaking, Veronica and Coril could be seen nodding their heads at each other while with a satisfied look on their faces, and right after…

Veronica opened her mouth and said with a smile on her face, “That will be more than enough.”

Right after, Veronica looked over to Luneth and asked, “So, Luneth, what do you think? Is this enough for you?”

After giving a light nod with her head, Luneth answered, “So long as you all are fine with it, I have no qualms about it.”

Upon speaking up to here, after pausing for a second, Luneth continued on speaking.

“Back on topic…”

“As of things are right now, if I were to suddenly head back to the sect, I would make myself seem too suspicious.”

“Therefore, I will have to stay here at the west for at least a month’s time, so that I can be done with setting up the initial base and giving out various orders.”

“However, I will get my daughter, Euna, to return to the sect in two weeks’ time.”

“When Euna has returned to Bright Moon Sect…”

…

While Veronica and the others were discussing about their future plans within the conference room…

Sebastian had finally arrived at the wedding venue, and right as Sebastian had arrived, Feng Xue could be seen turning her head toward Sebastian’s direction while with an extremely confused look on her face.
