She paused as her presence became heavy, radiating an aura of authority, “Even if our cultivation techniques lean on the gentle side, that doesn’t mean anyone can bully us. We have been silent for far too long, people might have forgotten that we are a Divine Sect as well. Heh, it will be a good chance to show them what we are.”
Lan Xi nodded her head, sensing the confidence in the Sect Leader’s voice, “Then it is decided. Shen Yuan will join the expedition.”
Mei Hua stood up, her robes fluttering with the wind, “Yes. We will send Shen Yuan along with the promising discip-”
“Cough, sorry to interrupt you Sect Leader, but I heard Shen Yuan entered closed-door seclusion today.” Lan Xi turned her head to the other side, not wanting to meet Mei Hua’s gaze.
“…” Mei Hua’s smile cracked as she looked at the red-faced Lan Xi.
…
Meanwhile, in a secluded chamber deep within the Radiant Heart Peak, Elder Xiang Mei sat in the lotus position, cultivating peacefully. A subtle ripple appeared in the chamber’s protective formation as she received a message from Mei Hua.
Opening her eyes, she gazed towards Sect Leader’s hall thoughtfully as her eyes flickered with excitement.
“So, I am to protect the young ones during this expedition together with those two? And even that new disciple Shen Yuan will be going, hmm.”
Her expression turned playful, “And the order to intimidate the other sects, hehe. Looks like Sect Leader had enough of their bullshit and decided to place them in their spot. This Mystique Realm might prove more pivotal than expected.”
She stood up gracefully, her ample bosom heaving up and down, “Time to go and meet up with those two, we should make some preparations for our grand welcome.
…
Over the next few days, the sect buzzed with activity as news of the upcoming Mystique Realm spread amongst the disciples. The training grounds were filled with excited disciples who wanted to join the expedition.
The anticipation became palpable due to the zeal of the disciples.
At the sparring grounds, a pair of disciples clashed fiercely, their movements quick and precise. A small crowd had gathered around the ring, watching intently in hopes of learning something.
“I heard the Mystique Realm is filled with treasures from the ancient time, waiting for the faithful to pick them up.” One disciple whispered to her friend as they watched the match.
A disciple standing some distance away heard her and smirked, her voice dripping with sarcasm, “Hah! Even if the ancient sages left treasures inside the Mystique Realm, they wouldn’t bother with someone like you. You wouldn’t be able to coax a lust demon, let alone claim a treasure.”
The first disciple felt her lips tremble as she sharply turned her face towards that disciple and showed her middle finger towards her, and then raised another finger and motioned it up
The first disciple’s face flushed red with both anger and embarrassment. She spun around sharply, her eyes narrowing at the girl who had spoken.
Without missing a beat, she shot her a nasty grin before raising her middle finger. Then, she raised another finger, teasingly wiggling them in the air. “Keep talking, bitch, and I’ll shove something up that tight ass of yours next time!” She slowly spread her fingers apart while maintaining eye contact with the first disciple.
The second disciple’s eye twitched as she saw her actions, but she replied, her tone turning sultry, “Oh, really? Maybe that’s what I’ve been waiting for.” she winked playfully with a teasing tone
“Ugh, enough you two!”
“Yeah, we all know how much you ‘like’ each other. No need to show that here.”
“Go find a room you horny bitches.”

…
The surrounding disciples felt their faces turning red at their brazen words as they cursed them loudly to go find a room.
“And here I am, more worried about the dangers we will face inside the Mystique Realm.” another disciple spoke up, crossing her arms. “Only those up to the Inner Sea Realm can enter, but who knows what kind of beast or traps we’ll face in there.”
“Still,” another disciple chimed in, her voice filled with excitement, “Can you imagine returning with a legendary artifact? You’d be promoted to the position of a Core Disciple in no time.”
…
At another location, a pair of younger disciples sat against a wall, painting heavily after their intense session.
One of them wiped the sweat from her brow and nudged the other with a grin.
“Do you think we’ll get to see Shen Yuan in action?” she asked eagerly.
Her companion, equally out of breath, rolled her eyes. “Why does everyone keep talking about him? He is just another disciple, nothing more.” freёwebnoѵel.com
“Are you kidding me?” the first disciple replied, her voice rising slightly in excitement, “He’s not just any disciple. He completed the Ancestral Pagoda trial, which no one has been able to clear since the sect’s founding. And just recently he broke all records on the training ground pagodas. I heard even the Sect Leader has her eyes on him!”
A third disciple, who had been quietly meditating at the side, chimed in, “I heard he’s only at the Foundation Establishment Realm despite his monstrous strength. With him, we might be able to leave the Mystique Realm alive if he protected us a bit.”
The second disciple scoffed but she couldn’t hide the rising interest she had towards him. “We’ll see. Strength isn’t everything. The Mystique Realm isn’t just about raw power.”
…
As these conversations spread around the sect, Wan Ling sat under a cherry blossom tree, studying a scroll she got from the library intently.
Ling Mei approached her with a light smile. “Have you finished the manual you got from the library yet or not?”
Wan Ling raised her head, looking at Ling Mei with a smile, “I already finished that Senior Sister. I’m reading about the Mystique Realm currently, even though we don’t have information regarding the recent one where we will be going, reading about the older Mystique Realms is also quite helpful.”
“Indeed,” Ling Mei agreed, taking a seat beside her. “Have you heard? The higher-ups have decided to send Shen Yuan with us.”
Wan Ling’s cheeks flushed ever so slightly, “I thought he was in seclusion.”
“He is,” Ling Mei confirmed. “But surely he won’t be unlucky enough to miss the opening of the Mystique Realm. It seems the Sect Leader herself has taken an interest in his progress.”
Wan Ling nodded thoughtfully, “He will be a great help in the Mystique Realm. His guidance alone has helped me a lot.”
Ling Mei glanced at her with a knowing smile. “It seems he has taken quite the special care of you.”
Wan Ling’s blush deepened. “It’s not like that, Senior Sister. He only took care of me in his spare time. And I really admire his dedication and skills.”
“Of course,” Ling Mei replied lightly. “Regardless, we should make some preparations for ourselves as well. The Mystique Realm will test us all.”
“You’re right,” Wan Ling agreed, her expression becoming resolute. “Let’s give it our all.”
Ling Mei smiled lightly seeing her determined look. “I heard about your clan, looks like you are in a tough position.”
Wan Ling smiled bitterly, “My parents have done the best for me, I can’t betray their expectations.”
They surroundings fell into silence.
