Chapter 168: Good reason

“Since Sebastian appears to possess extreme combat capabilities…”

“Ning Zhi accepting Sebastian as her direct disciple won’t pose any problems to the plans that we have mapped out earlier on.”

“This means that, I will still be taking in Sebastian as my direct disciple.”

Upon hearing what Luneth said, a slight frown appeared on Coril’s face as he asked.

“A disciple who possesses 2 of the most influential cultivators within Bright Moon Sect as his master…?”

“Would the other higher-ups within Bright Moon Sect even allow such a thing to happen before their eyes?”

“Not even talking about the other elders and great elders, I’m sure all of the other peak masters definitely wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen.”

Faced with Coril’s question, Luneth answered leisurely.

“If Sebastian merely possessed the sperm strengthening body and didn’t possess such extreme combat capabilities, perhaps it may be rather difficult for me to take in Sebastian as my direct disciple when Sebastian had already acknowledged Ning Zhi as his master.”

“However, with Sebastian’s extreme combat capabilities…”

“Aside from the sword peak, the other peak masters won’t be able to pose any problems to me at all.”

“Thus, unless an unexpected issue arises, everything that we have planned previously should be able to go smoothly.”

“Most importantly, with Sebastian’s feat of defeating Ye Wei with complete ease while Sebastian was only at level 6 of energy refining realm…”

“When others become suspicious or curious as to why we are marrying so many people to Sebastian, or investing so much onto Sebastian, we now have a very good reason to explain ourselves, whereas we can just say that we have great hopes toward Sebastian’s future as a cultivator.”

“Perhaps, Sebastian will end up being viewed as a lecherous cultivator who is obsessed with women instead of focusing on cultivating, but I’m sure Sebastian most likely wouldn’t mind it.”

“After all, that is much better than others slowly suspecting that he possesses the sperm strengthening body, and sooner or later manages to confirm their suspicions.”

“Of course, there are going to be a few tweaks here and there that we will have to make to the plans that we have originally mapped out.”

“So, firstly…”

…

After what seemed like 30 minutes or so had passed…

“Knock, knock…”

Upon hearing the sound of the door being knocked onto ring out, Coril looked over to the door and shouted out, “Come in!”

Shortly after the door opened, a middle-aged looking woman could be seen standing at the door.

After cupping her hands while with her head lowered and body bent forward, the middle-aged looking woman asked while maintaining her position.

“Ancestor Coril, Lady Miuna has arrived at the wedding venue. Should we start with the performances now, or…?”

Upon hearing what the servant head had said, instead of immediately replying to the servant head, Coril first looked over to Luneth, then said as he stood up from his seat.

“Sect master, we can discuss more about what to do regarding Bright Moon City and Bright Moon Sect’s security in the near future. For now, it seems that it’s time for the wedding to start. So, please excuse us.”

Luneth nodded her head, then said, “Alright. Make sure to let Miuna and Sebastian know that I gave them my best wishes.”

“I will make sure to do that.”

Right after Coril had finished speaking, Luneth nodded her head one more time, then turned off her side of the hologram without any hesitation.

Upon seeing that Luneth had disappeared from the hologram projection, Veronica stood up and used her spiritual sense to pick up the jade that emitted out the hologram, then kept the jade into her spatial ring.

Meanwhile, Coril said to the servant head as he began walking over to the door.

“Lola, you can go ahead and tell the performers that they can start with their performances already, we will be heading over to the wedding venue now.”

“Understood, Ancestor Coril.”

Upon hearing Coril gave his order, the servant head opened her mouth to speak, before finally raising her body upright and turning around to leave.

…

After returning back to the wedding venue and sitting down on her table…

Veronica said mockingly to Ning Zhi.

“Didn’t you say that you don’t have the time to take in another direct disciple? So, what’s the matter now? Is it normal for people from the Zhi Family to go back on their words?”

Upon hearing what Veronica said, evidently to be trying to mock her…

Since Ning Zhi was in an extremely good right now due to the fact that she had just managed to accept an extremely promising cultivator as her direct disciple, Ning Zhi didn’t get angry or annoyed at all.

With an indifferent look on her face, and seemingly slight grin on the right corner of her mouth, Ning Zhi said leisurely.

“What’s with this hostility? Weren’t you the one who introduced Sebastian to me and wanted me to take Sebastian in as my direct disciple?”

“After thinking a bit about it… I felt that since you are after all my favorite disciple’s mother, and you seemed to be a bit hell-bent on having me accept Sebastian as my direct disciple, I decided to show you some face and abide your wishes.”

“And yet, the first thing you do when you have returned to the table is to talk to me with such an evident mocking tone in your voice.”

“You really hurt my heart, Veronica.”

Upon hearing what Ning Zhi said, Veronica’s left brow and the left corner of Veronica’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch a few times.

After taking in and letting out a deep breath to calm herself down, Veronica said coldly, “You think I’m stupid? I know exactly why you suddenly changed your mind, and you are also definitely aware of it too.”

“If not for Sebastian having managed to defeat Ye Wei with complete ease, would you have suddenly changed your mind?”
