Chapter 441 - Final elimination

"Hiccup, why are you here?"

As soon as Xiang Yun saw Lin Wan'er, he subconsciously took a small step to the side. As soon as Xiang Yun took that step, he regretted it immediately. Wasn't this acting with a guilty conscience?

Hu Yi Lan's beautiful eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with excitement as she also looked at Lin Wan'er. Two beauties, one was as pure as a water lotus, the other was as enchanting as a dream.

The two of them sized up each other's body, clothes, and hair. In the end, their eyes met, and like two sharp arrows, they fiercely collided, causing sparks to instantly appear from the friction!

Although they were silent, smoke was rising from all directions. The two girls were smiling, but they could clearly feel that the blades and spears made from frost under their smiles were facing each other with equal harshness!

Seeing this, Xiang Yun immediately thought that things were not going well. How could he let these two women meet at this moment?

He was about to laugh and say a few words to resolve the awkward situation, but Hu Yi Lan was the first to speak.

Her seductive eyes were like that of a fox. She looked at Lin Wan'er sideways, pointed her orchid shaped finger at her, and said with a gentle voice.

"I presume this celestial daughter of his, is the sister that His Highness often mentioned to Lan'er. 'Little Sister Wan'er', as expected, is very slim and graceful. She looks so beautiful that even my sister is envious of her. Your Highness is really blessed."

As he said this, Hu Yi Lan actually reached out and patted Xiang Yun's shoulder, looking extremely intimate.

Sure enough, Xiang Yun was once again s.n.a.t.c.hed away before he could say anything. Lin Wan'er was also smiling like a flower as she glanced at Hu Yi Lan.

"Uh …" Xiang Yun almost choked upon hearing this. He hadn't thought that when this little girl Wan'er started bickering, her fighting strength was actually so valiant as well. She had actually called Hu Yi Lan a brothel girl.

A light flashed across Hu Lan'er's eyes when she heard this. Soon after, she spoke with a pleased expression on her face.

"Sister Wan-Er was wrong. Lan'er is not the most famous girl in the brothel, but the Crown Prince has already accepted me. I will be by your side from now on. Sister Wan-Er, thank you for your hard work in serving me tea."

Hearing this, Xiang Yun's eyes widened, Hu Yi Lan's words were too ambiguous, your Joyous Union Sect had already pledged allegiance to my Unnamed Sect, why does it sound like I'm taking you in as my wife?

Seeing the proud expression on Hu Yi Lan's face, Lin Wan'er, the seemingly weak girl, used her sharp gaze to block Xiang Yun's mouth. She then looked at Hu Yi Lan with a playful smile.

"Oh right, I forgot to tell my sister. In the past, all of the ladies that His Highness brought back with him think that they want to be the main wife of the family, with a prestige that is even bigger than the sky, but they were all sent back after only a few days. After that, His Highness couldn't even remember their names, so my lady, please don't let these sweet words rush to your head."

"Cough! Cough!" Having been exposed by Lin Wan'er, Xiang Yun immediately choked heavily. Hu Yi Lan's beautiful face flushed red with anger, wanting to fight back.

Seeing that the two of them were getting more and more intense, Xiang Yun finally spoke up and cut them off!

Hearing this, Hu Yi Lan retracted the fire of war in his eyes and turned to Xiang Yun with a gentle smile, "Lord Sect Master, after Lan'er succeeds to Sect Master, we can rely on your care. You cannot disappoint Lan'er."

Xiang Yun was sweating profusely, but he could only nod awkwardly before pointing at Lin Wan'er.

At this point, Xiang Yun paused for a moment, her eyes sneaking a glance at Lin Wan'er.

Hearing Xiang Yun's introduction, Lin Wan'er's originally fierce gaze became much warmer. Xiang Yun hurriedly asked, "Wan'er, where is Yue Jing? I have something to discuss with him."

"I was just about to come and tell Your Highness that the beast tide has all returned to the Silvermoon Forest, and the road down the mountain is already clear. After discussing some matters with His Highness, Steward Yue has already rushed down the mountain, preparing to build a sect."

"In that case, I won't bother you anymore. I don't want Sister Wan-Er to misunderstand."

"Alright!" Xiang Yun immediately nodded in agreement.

Everyone immediately split up and left …

In the blink of an eye, seven days had pa.s.sed. These days, Xiang Yun had spent the past few days in the Sect Master's cultivation room, wholeheartedly studying cultivation techniques and martial arts techniques.

However, now that he had already broken through to the peak of Yellow Cloud, just one more step and he would be at the Profound Cloud Realm. Xiang Yun had not been in a rush, he was just patiently cultivating.

Furthermore, while cultivating on the second level of the Sect Master's cultivation room, Xiang Yun discovered that the time and s.p.a.ce within the sect master's cultivation room was actually as the system had said, different from the outside world.

Xiang Yun had originally planned to continue cultivating in seclusion, but Yue Jing had already returned to Qingming Peak.

This time, Yue Jing had brought back a large amount of resources and craftsmen. Moreover, these craftsmen were not ordinary craftsmen. They were all members of major merchant guilds or even disciples of some sects.

Because of the specifications and facilities that Xiang Yun had set for the construction of the sect, it was impossible for ordinary materials and craftsmen to accomplish that.

They were proficient in construction and could use talismans to drive the golden-armored giant, carry huge boulders, or ride Cloud Beasts to complete various projects that human hands could not do. Using profound arts and skills to carry out the construction tasks, their efficiency was many times higher than that of ordinary craftsmen.

The reason was that the construction of a sect was not as simple as opening a shop in the secular world. Its consumption was so great that it could no longer be calculated using the gold and silver of the mortal world.

Although the nameless sect was famous, it was spread throughout the upper echelons of the sect. These low level sects didn't even have the qualifications to know about it, and only benefits could move them.

However, when they saw the deposit that Yue Jing had taken out and displayed their wealth, these sects and merchant guilds, who had originally displayed a haughty att.i.tude, immediately became like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey. Their eyes turned red, hoping that Yue Jing would hand over the business to them.

In the end, Yue Jing was also very smart. He simply brought over a dozen members of merchant guilds and sects here, and let them take a look at Qingming Peak and its surrounding terrain first, giving them a plan and price. Then, they would compete to decide who was going to build it.

Hu Yi Lan went back to announce that although the matter of the Acacia Faction merging with the Nameless Sect had caused quite a stir within the Acacia Sect, she still managed to convince the other girls to join the Acacia Faction.

Furthermore, Xiang Yun's saving grace that day, coupled with the fact that the Nameless Sect was overseen by a powerful expert, had a bright future ahead of them. The temptation was too great to begin with, and the way Hu Yilan controlled the sect was brilliant as well.

Therefore, the Joyous Sect successfully entered the Unnamed Sect and finally changed the name of the sect. From then on, there was no more Joyous Sect and only the 'Yanzhi Peak'!

With Hu Yi Lan, the experienced Sect Leader of Joyful Union Sect, and Yue Jing, the shrewd butler, and the money bag, Sect Master Xiang Yun, able to make a decision, everything was naturally done in an orderly manner.

In the end, under Xiang Yun's guidance, they chose seven mountain peaks from the Silvermoon Mountain Range. Together with Qingming and Yanzhi Peaks, there were a total of nine mountain peaks!

It stood at the northwest border with its back against the Silvermoon Forest. Ten thousand miles away, the blue sea faced the Wind Cloud Country and overlooked the Myriad Miles Rivers and Mountains!

The nine peaks were all connected and connected. Even the various sects and merchant guilds that came to build the gates were full of praise. They had never seen such a superior geographical environment before.

The only drawback was that the cloud energy here was much thinner, especially on the main peak of the Green h.e.l.lish Peak, where it was the most barren. However, this was not the most critical problem, as the main focus was still on the construction of the sect.

An old man, thin and short, with a moustache, could not help but hold a magnifying gla.s.s as he carefully examined the map in front of Xiang Yun. After a long time, he finished looking at the map — the Heaven Stairway, the formation, the floating bridge, and the Sword Tomb.

The old man couldn't help but exclaim, "Lord Sect Leader, if we build it with your design, I'm afraid that the level of this Nine Peaks of the Unnamed Sects would be comparable to the second-rate sects on the continent."

"Ugh …"

The moment the word "talented" came out from Xiang Yun's mouth, the people in charge of the company were all stunned for a moment. The moment the word "talented" came out of their mouths, the people in charge of the company were all stunned for a moment.

Obviously, they all knew that they had met a big seller this time!

For a time, everyone's hearts were full of energy. They were determined to win the nameless sect's qualification and eat this piece of fat that could cause one's death!

However, Xiang Yun's final move caused these people to feel both joy and helplessness.

Xiang Yun had given the construction of the nine peaks to two merchant guilds at the same time as he had done that, as well as one of the last tier sects specializing in the construction of mountain gates. They were the three families with the most power and fame amongst their peers, and Xiang Yun had asked them to build mountain peaks in accordance with the same criteria, only able to build one mountain at a time.

After the construction was completed, the three powers began to compare the results. The construction had been completed beautifully, and the prices were extremely expensive. They continued to build the next mountain peak, and the last was eliminated.

As soon as this plan came out, the three families immediately wanted to go all out. Even if they earned less, as long as they managed to squeeze out the other two families, they would still get a piece of the cake. How could they not covet it?

With regards to Xiang Yun's proposal, it could be said that Yue Jing was full of admiration for it. In comparison, his own proposal was simply too much.

After the arrangements were made, Xiang Yun had Liu Hong and Zhang San act as supervisors and supervise the progress of the project. Only then did the sect's construction begin to proceed in an orderly fas.h.i.+on.
