Upon hearing Li Qingxian confirm that he would serve as a guest elder for five years, Guo Xiang let out a sigh of relief.
He hurriedly, delighted, sent a message to the sect master.
"Sect Master, that boy has taken the bait. A Middle Rank cultivation method buys five years of his service, an Upper Rank Fate Art buys ten, a supreme secret art buys twenty, and the refining method of the great inheritance Mountain Stabilization Pavilion buys another twenty. Having tasted the sweetness of working with the Mountain Fate Sect, he will surely be unable to stop."
"Good. Earlier, you said he had caught the eye of the grandmaster Seeking Flowers, Asking Willows, and the sect still had reservations. This time, however, he actually performed a Summoning Invocation upon a heavenly god. That means he must be one of the future heirs, destined to become a Grand Fate Arts Master. How laughable that the other sects cannot see it. If our sect had not possessed ancient texts recording that this was the true immortal art 'Summoning Invocation,' rather than the ordinary 'Sealing Invitation,' we too would have missed this opportunity."
"Even I was nearly fooled by him. I only thought it was an accident involving Sealing Invitation."
"Then keep letting him fool you! So long as it is a benefit he needs, give it to him half-willingly, half-reluctantly. What our Mountain Fate Sect seeks is not First-Class, nor is it dominion over the world, but enduring continuity. Those famous sects and great schools were once so glorious, but how many have endured? Now, the three heirs of the Fate Realm may already have become four."
"That Ye Han's fortune also seems extraordinary..."
"Ye Han's relationship with Heaven's Mandate Sect is unclear. It is not something we can interfere in.
