Qin Bao'er was completely numb, staring at Fang Ruotang in disbelief.
"Sect Master, is this their private sanctuary?"
"What, are there private and public secret realms?"
"Yes, these private secret realms are used to train one's own disciples and are generally not open to outsiders. However, if two sects have a good relationship, it is possible to make a request."
"Huh?" Fang Ruotang didn't quite understand and asked the little mirror.
The little mirror jumped up and down.
"They're talking nonsense! They're just trying to seize this newly emerged secret realm because they're the number one sect on the Cloud Deep Continent!"
So that's how it is.
Fang Ruotang frowned and scolded Xiao Jingzi.
[If you had told us earlier that these secret realms could be privately claimed, we would have been the first to claim them next time! Instead, we wouldn't have had to deal with all this trouble.]
Little Mirror: ...
He had no idea that anyone could be so dog-like!
Moreover, most of the secret realms open without any pattern. What can you do after occupying one? And when will it open again? You have no idea.
They are usually discovered together, and then the sects that discovered them discuss and decide how many disciples each sect will send.
This time, however, the location of the secret realm is somewhat coincidental.
Near the Qingyun Sect, they were the first to discover that a new secret realm might be born, and they took precautions and tampered with it in advance.
The news was kept from spreading and from being detected by other sects.
"What nonsense are you spouting! This secret realm is a completely new one, how can it be your Qingyun Sect's secret realm! Hmph, the disciples of my Tianyi Sect will guard this place today and see who can drive me away."
When Fang Ruotang made his boastful statement, he didn't forget to take out a communication talisman and directly contact the Qin family, Tianji Sect, Medicine King Valley, and Tianyan Array Sect.
After finishing, he said to Lu Ling, "Invite your Lu family disciples as well."
Lu Ling's expression brightened with joy. "Thank you, Sect Master."
She actually really wanted the sect leader to come to their Lu family as an honored elder, but unfortunately the Lu family was weak, and she was too embarrassed to ask.
Compared to other sects, the Lu family can offer too little, and instead has to rely on the sect leader in every way, as if they want to leech off the Tianyi Sect.
Elder Wu was much older and had been a wandering cultivator for a long time, so he had a lot of experience. He immediately stepped forward and took over the task of negotiating.
Fang Ruotang didn't care. There was no way she would leave. She was already here, so how could she not go in and take a look?
"Big sister, where are you? Come quickly, the secret realm might open ahead of schedule." Fang Ruotang immediately took out a communication stone to call Fang Shengtang.
Fang Shengtang and his group were already on the flying magical artifact.
"We're already on our way, we'll be there soon."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you here."
Fang Ruotang nodded in satisfaction.
Then, turning to Gu Yanjin, he said, "Brother Yan, next time you should remind me to let the Medicine King Valley sects have a share of the profits. After all, I am an elder of these sects, so their success is also good for me."
This was Fang Ruotang's first time, and she handled it somewhat improperly. In fact, she had never thought of it before, as it was a rare opportunity to invite disciples from several friendly sects to participate in the training together.
"Okay!" Gu Yanjin readily agreed and kept the matter in mind.
"Stop talking. Our Qingyun Sect will never allow you to enter the secret realm. I advise you to leave as soon as possible if you know what's good for you."
Elder Wu's negotiations were clearly ineffective; the cultivator opposite him drew his sword directly, pointing it at Elder Wu.
Fang Ruotang frowned and tried to rush forward, but Gu Yanjin grabbed her around the waist and stopped her from jumping over. She turned her head to look at him blankly.
"Brother Yan, why are you stopping me?"
"Don't go."
“I’ll go and reason with him! This secret realm isn’t the private property of Qingyun Sect. It hasn’t been opened for thousands of years. There are so many good things inside. I can’t let Qingyun Sect monopolize it.”
Gu Yanjin reassured him, "Let Elder Wu negotiate. After all, he knows the Cloud Deep Continent better than we do. What you said last time was useless."
Fang Ruotang was a complete stranger, and no one could discern her cultivation level.
Her presence would have no deterrent effect whatsoever.
These people will instead think she is an uncultured person and that she is easy to bully. They will not be willing to talk to her properly.
But Elder Wu is different. He has already entered the Nascent Soul stage and is someone who can speak with authority. Didn't the disciples of Qingyun Sect warn him with bluster but no real courage?
Not only that, while negotiating, they also instructed other disciples to quickly notify the sect.
Since the secret realm has not yet been opened, the Qingyun Sect has only sent disciples to guard this place.
Therefore, the one with the highest cultivation level, who was confronting Elder Wu, was also at the Nascent Soul stage, and their numbers were fewer than those on their side.
“Gu Yanjin is right. The most important thing is to hurry up and urge the disciples of the Qin family, Medicine King Valley, and Tianyan Array Sect to come. Right now, this disciple obviously can’t make decisions, and it’s not worth arguing with him,” Ye Wuxia also advised.
It would be beneath their sect leader to personally confront the other side if not even a junior disciple was sent.
"Judging from this situation, the Qingyun Sect is unlikely to back down. Even if the two sides reach an agreement, our people will be easily surrounded and harassed because we are outnumbered and outmatched in cultivation. We might as well take this opportunity to release this information and promote our Tianyi Sect's intelligence network. Free publicity is a good thing."
After learning about the size of the Qingyun Sect from the small mirror, Cui Shixu felt that this sect was not one they could currently confront head-on.
