Chapter 971: Another Place To Visit

(MC POV)

With Luna here, our discussion about the other Planes got a little bit more interesting. Despite how she behaves, Luna was still the Matriarch of the Spiritual Plane after all.

Sect Master Qing gained a whole new insight to our own Plane and the Spiritual Plane in particular. It seems like I was not alone in thinking that the next step for Pract.i.tioners here was to ascend to the Spiritual Plane.

That at least made me feel less incompetent.

But the Star Plane was something new that I've not heard of and even Luna didn't know about its existence either.

At least, she hasn't heard of anyone hailing from the Star Plane coming to the Spiritual Plane before.

That means it's either more advanced than the Spiritual Plane, or so beneath it that it's not even worth considering.

This fact piqued my interest and I was sorely tempted to ask omniscience about it but I thought of a better idea.

"How about I go and take a look over there?" I suggested.

Everyone in my courtyard turned to me, including my disciples.

"Oh So is Master Lin leaving us?" Sect Master Qing asked melancholically.

"Hmm? I just said I'll go take a look, not that I'll stay there. I'll probably go in there and maybe stay a few days before coming back here, no need to worry about that."

Unexpectedly, Elaria popped up from nowhere, "You just raised a flag, Onii-sama!! Now if you go there, you'll definitely be staying there for a good long while!!"

I can't deny that possibility either since it could happen too Considering the event that happened with Iris

I coughed awkwardly, "Well Even if that happens, I can always just rewind time, right?"

This time, it was Tsuki's turn to pop up beside Elaria, "Aniue!! That's another flag, you know? Now it's definitely impossible for you to simply spend a few days there before returning!"

Ugh I don't even have anything to say to that.

But I really do want to go and explore though! It's somewhere new! A place I didn't even know existed before! I definitely want to go and explore!

My desire must have shown on my face since Sect Master Qing chuckled, "Not to worry, Master Lin. The Convergence of Planes lasts for quite a while so there's no rush to head there when the event happens right away. I believe Master Lin is able to go back and forth without relying on the Convergence either, am I right?"

Well, that sounds like a plan.

"If husband is going, husband will take me along too, yes? Ah! But it's ok if husband doesn't want that either, it's the duty of the wife to keep the home prepared for when the husband comes back after all! You can leave everything to me, husband! I'll make sure your room is cleaned, your bed is made, your clothes are washed, your home is safe and there will even be a meal and bath ready when you return! Even if you wanted to partake in some other activities with me when--"

"Ok, ok, that's enough," I interrupted her before she could start suggesting that stuff. "Anyway, I'll just stay here for now and see how it goes. I do want to see how the other Pract.i.tioners in Beiyang will deal with this phenomenon though. This should result in a rather large power vacuum if there are a lot of people moving to other Planes, right?"

Sect Master Qing shook his head, "I believe I speak for everyone in the Sect and those affiliated with us that no one would even think of moving away if Master Lin chooses to stay here."

Eh? But why wouldn't they? Isn't it normal for Pract.i.tioners to want to Ah They probably want to stay close to 'Origin' huh? Not that I've been advertising my status but news must have leaked out about that so it would be more beneficial if they stayed close to me

Definitely not because they are part of the fanclub Yep, definitely not.

I simply nodded my head, "I see But the other Sects might have a big migration of their own right? Especially the more prominent members of those Sects?"

Sect Master Qing seemed to think for a bit, although I did notice his gaze s.h.i.+ft towards my disciples for a moment before s.h.i.+fting back to me.

"Does Master Lin wish to keep the contents of our talk today a secret?"

I shook my head, "Actually It doesn't really matter. In fact, I think it would be good if the other Pract.i.tioners knew of this too, since that way it would prevent the talented ones from stunting their growth by moving to the Spiritual Plane."

"Ho ho! Master Lin is as benevolent as always! I shall go and do just that!"

Honestly, this isn't me being benevolent, I frankly don't really care if half the Pract.i.tioners in this continent decide to move to the Spiritual Plane at all. It's just that if they do, that could mean more work for me and less time that I can use in just doing whatever I want.

Imagine me not being able to go and explore the Star Plane because I'm stuck here and forced to do actual work! Not going to let that happen!

Sect Master Qing said his goodbyes and left quickly, presumably to start spreading the info he learnt to the other Pract.i.tioners of this continent.

The moment he left, however, the rest of my disciples quickly crowded around me.

"When will you be leaving for the Star Plane, Master?" Lian Li asked, her eyes sparkling in antic.i.p.ation.

"Err I said I'll see how things go right? I don't think you girls need to worry about that for now."

"Maybe you should bring us along as well, Master," Eris suggested, wiping her sweat with a towel.

I considered it for a moment, "I don't really want you to get distracted by this since you're all making such good progress though"

"Unnn But I think we would be much more distracted if we were to end up worrying about your safety, Master~" Diao Chan giggled, obviously thinking about something else.

I want to point out that there's pretty much no chance I could get hurt but I guess it's the thought that counts.

Before I could answer though, Manami had reached forward and took the still sleeping Cai Hong from my hands.

"Putting that aside for now Master I think it's a good time we took a break, yes? And since everyone is here"

Err What does taking a break have to do with taking Cai Hong away Ah, they already started stripping.

Ok, ok. You're all h.o.r.n.y, I get it, especially after Manami and Kiyomi showed off their steamy session in front of all of you in the morning. Or maybe this is your way of trying to convince me to take you girls with me?

Either way, it's working.

Oh well, at least I already expected this to happen so I guess I'll indulge them It's also been a while since Luna slept with me anyway.

Time to get to work!
