"Walking? Why would you think of walking such a long distance?" Caixia was very surprised.
"I wanted to see how the environment was along the way," Wang Yao explained somewhat awkwardly. There was no way around it; if you accidentally retained a bit of mortal interest while surrounded by immortals, it would be incredibly troublesome.
"Environment? Isn't this what the Wilderness is all about? What's so interesting about it?" Caixia still didn't understand.
“I’m different from you. I’ve never seen the Wilderness Domain since I became an immortal,” Wang Yao said.
"Your curiosity is certainly strong." Caixia finally nodded, accepting Wang Yao's explanation.
"Huh? When did you reach the Great Ascension stage?" This time it was Wang Yao's turn to be surprised. Because his cultivation level was lower than Caixia's and he had feelings for her, he had never tried to sense Caixia Fairy's cultivation level before, only that he had heard that she should be at the Nascent Soul stage.
But at this moment, Wang Yao roughly sensed the other party and found that Caixia was also a Mahayana cultivator, just like him, which surprised him quite a bit.
"Aren't you just asking the obvious? How did you even attain Mahayana enlightenment?" Caixia's tone suddenly carried a hint of embarrassment and annoyance.
"I... Could it be... that you also participated in the God and Demon Forging?" Wang Yao was surprised again, never expecting that Caixia had also participated in the Heavenly Court's bargain-hunting operation. However, upon reflection, he felt it was only natural.
“You are a great power admired by all the immortals. We Mahayana cultivators who took shortcuts to advance all owe it to you. You were so proud of yourself back then, how could you have seen me?” Caixia said resentfully.
"I...I'm so sorry, I really didn't notice you in the God and Demon Forging Ground, otherwise..." Wang Yao hurriedly apologized, feeling quite surprised.
Given his level of cultivation, it's possible that he didn't sense the colorful clouds at the beginning due to the chaotic environment. However, after breaking through the two realms and all the immortals flew into the sky, it's simply unbelievable that he still didn't discover the existence of the colorful clouds.
"Never mind, never mind, I know you're a very busy person, it's my fault for not daring to go up and bother you," Caixia mumbled, trying to make amends.
It turned out that although Caixia had participated in the God and Demon Forging, she was still somewhat embarrassed about this kind of bargaining behavior, especially after learning that her opportunity to advance to the Mahayana stage was facilitated by Wang Yao. Given her past with Wang Yao, she was even more embarrassed to meet him.
Therefore, she kept a low profile during the God and Demon Forging process, and after completing the Mahayana stage forging, she quickly left the God and Demon Forging Field and hid far away in other places, so that Wang Yao had no chance to sense her at all.
She was bothered by the incident, but she also knew that it wouldn't be fair to blame Wang Yao, so she didn't want to continue the topic.
"What a busy person, it's just a job that offends people." Wang Yao shook his head self-deprecatingly, thinking of Feng Huan who left in a huff.
"Hey, now that you're in charge of the Women's Federation, have you figured out how to get things done?" Caixia asked, changing the subject.
"No, I'm still dizzy. You know I've never been a leader before, and now the Heavenly Court has suddenly put me in charge of such a large department. I haven't even adjusted to it yet," Wang Yao said, shaking his head repeatedly.
“I’m thinking, shouldn’t our first step be to draft an outline for the rights and interests of women in the Six Realms, and submit it to the Heavenly Court for approval so that it can serve as a guide for our future work?” Caixia asked.
“Okay, you take care of this. I’ll see how this place the Heavenly Court gave us is.” Wang Yao nodded casually and turned to walk towards the dark building next to him.
"Don't look anymore, it's still a mess. But cleaning it up shouldn't be too difficult. I'm drafting an office supplies list so I can report it to the Heavenly Court's Supply Department later," Caixia hurriedly followed.
“Oh, I know Director Tang from the Heavenly Court’s Supply Bureau. If there are any problems, I can ask him to smooth things over,” Wang Yao said while looking around the building.
From the outside, the building looks like a fortress, but inside it is clearly divided into floors, with each floor having a passageway and stone railings, and offices, some with their doors open and some with their doors closed, much like a typical primary or secondary school.
However, the classroom... was indeed... completely empty except for a few tattered prayer cushions.
"This is a complete mess. At the very least, there should be a desk and a computer, right? How can anyone work like this with nothing there?" Wang Yao muttered to himself as he walked up the stairs to the second floor.
“This was originally the camp of the immortal soldiers. When the immortal soldiers rested, all they needed was a futon to meditate. Besides, computers and such were not common in the immortal realm back then…” Caixia explained to Wang Yao as she followed behind him.
"I know, I know. Even if there were some valuable things, the celestial soldiers took them all when they moved. I'm not talking about the past, I'm saying that now that the Heavenly Court has given us this place, the office equipment and such should be up to par, right? How can they do this..."
Wang Yao shook his head repeatedly, but still looked through each room one by one.
Although he said that, his thoughts were completely different. After hearing what Caixia had said before, he knew that he would have to handle everything in this new unit from scratch. Moreover, with Caixia here, they should be able to get whatever the Heavenly Court had.
However, he had never been a leader before, and the Heavenly Court suddenly handed over such a large task to him. Realizing that this entire area of buildings was under his jurisdiction, Wang Yao couldn't help but feel a sense of sudden wealth, just like a miser counting his coins. He was taking stock of his wealth.
"According to the rules of Heaven, everything in the new unit must be applied for based on actual needs to avoid waste..." Caixia was about to continue explaining when she saw Wang Yao's steps not stopping, and he had already gone up to the third floor.
