Yang Wei kept the name 'Yi Renshu' to his heart as he will remember to give him a very generous present.
"Let's not talk about him anymore." Elder Jing then said as she laid on his chest. "He's a nobody in my life anymore whereas you have entered my heart forcefully."
"Heh, I'm really thankful for that nobody then," Yang Wei smirked and hugged her.
After that, they kissed passionately for another few minutes until Elder Jing pushed him off.
"I'm already late to my meeting and if I stall any longer, I will probably be punished," Elder Jing said as she got up and grabbed a bath towel.
Yang Wei bathed for a little longer before walking out as well and saw Elder Jing dressed in her usual elegant clothes.
"For some reason, you look even more beautiful." Yang Wei complimented.
"Does that mean I wasn't beautiful previously?"
"Cough, that's not what I mean at all."
"Whatever, learn to flirt better next time. In the meantime, you should continue training your Octane Punch and the pill recipe I left on the desk," Elder Jing said as she left the courtyard.
Yang Wei smiled briefly as he sat down and read the pill recipe.
Sometime later, Elder Jing walked toward a large meeting hall and the guards there bowed when they saw her.
"Elder Jing, the other elders, and sect leader had arrived." The guard kindly informed her.
Elder Jing nodded her head as she headed inside.
Upon entering, Elder Jing heard the elders arguing at each other in a heated discussion.
"I told you not to send Elder Jing to the mystery realm. Look at the trouble she had caused us."
"The other sects are blaming their elders and disciples' death on us. After all, we're the only third-rate sect that managed to come out alive."
Elder Jing laughed at those old fogeys that always tried to blame her on something.
"I'm surprised you two old men are still alive and kicking. I thought it would be your funeral by the time I return." Elder Jing sneered as she took her seat.
"Hmph, watch your tone, lass. Don't forget we are still your seniors," One of the old men slammed his palm at the table and scoffed.
Elder Jing chuckled as she glared at him. "Senior? Which part of you act like a senior when all you do is shove the blame on someone else?"
"Don't forget that it was because of me that our sect managed to gain tremendous resources." She then added.
"This and that are two different matters."
"Now now, Elder Tan, although I never liked Elder Jing, you can't just shift the blame to her." Elder Shan suddenly intervened as she helped Elder Jing.
Meanwhile, Elder Tan twitched his mouth as he wanted to argue back but Sect Leader Kong suddenly coughed.
His meaning was clear as day and that he better drop this matter for now.
Kong Yusheng smiled at Elder Jing as he asked, "What took you so long to arrive, Elder Jing? You are usually early or on time."
Elder Jing shuddered briefly as she wondered what answer to give. There was no way she was going to tell Kong Yusheng that she was having sex with Yang Wei.
"Cough, I was taking care of some pill recipes and forgot about the time," Elder Jing cleared her throat softly as she gave her excuse.
Kong Yusheng simply nodded his head and no one else questioned her explanation except for Elder Shan.
Elder Shan smiled wickedly as she glanced at Elder Jing. `Her rosy lips are suspicious and why is she covering her neck with some clothes?''
Since they were both women, Elder Shan could detect the change in Elder Jing no matter how much she tried to hide.
"Anyway, now that Elder Jing has arrived, we can finally begin today's agenda for the meeting." Kong Yusheng said as he tapped on the table. "We need to discuss which area is suitable to conduct the inner disciple examination."
"Aren't we going to be conducting the inner disciple examination through a formation?" Elder Jing raised an eyebrow.
During the inner disciple examination, they would usually set up a formation and test the willpower of the disciples to determine their qualification.
After they confirmed they had the willpower to become a true cultivator, they would then be tested on their strength, agility, and spiritual qi.
Thus, Elder Jing was confused by this sudden change where they needed to find an area for the disciples.
"Um, Elder Shan, would you kindly explain the changes this year to Elder Jing?" Kong Yusheng said.
Elder Shan nodded her head.
"Elder Jing, the time has changed and the sect decided to aim for 1st place this year after hiding our strength for a long time. Thus, we would only want the best to become an inner disciple and gain a slot to participate in the grand sect tournament." Elder Shan said in excitement.
Elder Jing was dumbfounded as she pondered on why Kong Yusheng would suddenly reveal their strength.
Kong Yusheng stroked his beard as he smiled at Elder Jing. "You must be wondering why I decided to reveal our strength this year right?"
Elder Jing nodded her head.
"Well, isn't it because of that lovely disciple of yours?" Kong Yusheng laughed as he caused Elder Jing to shudder.
Elder Jing was afraid that Kong Yusheng had seen through her relationship with Yang Wei and that she had given her chaste to him.
"I was strolling around the sect before the mystery realm began and I was fortunate enough to meet Yang Wei in the Lecture Hall." Kong Yusheng then said.
Elder Jing breathed a sigh of relief when it wasn't related to her.
"I had someone check on him and I was surprised that the sect rated him an Earth spiritual root." Kong Yusheng started laughing heartily as he slammed the table.
"I didn't know which fool rated him that so I decided to investigate and punish the sect elder when he almost made us lose a genius- an unparalleled genius who held the legendary spiritual root."
