"Iâm sorry, I failed Masterâs entrustment. However, that person is very strong, and when fighting him one-on-one, I couldnât gain any advantage. Moreover, he has not been in Zhonghai recently, so I havenât had the chance to make a move," Bing Xin said in a detached tone.
"Saintess, this is the elixir Valley Master gave you. After taking this elixir and with the help of our four peopleâs strength, you can break through to the Saint Realm. Then we can quickly kill this man and return to Ruthless Valley to focus on preparing for the Qing List competition."
As the Elder spoke, he took out a white medicine bottle and handed it to Bing Xin.
"Thank you, Master. However, your presence here must be for more than just my breakthrough in power," Bing Xin said, her gaze fixed on the four individuals before her.
"The Valley Master received information that an important item will be auctioned off at the Capital City auction, and specifically sent the four of us here."
"What item is so important that it requires all four Elders to come here?" Bing Xin asked with some surprise.
"The map of the Holy Sky Sectâs treasure!" one of the Elders said gravely.
Bing Xin was shocked and said, "The map of the Holy Sky Sectâs treasure? Does that treasure really exist?"
"Of course, it exists. Back then, when several great forces attacked the Holy Sky Alliance, it wasnât just because they were against the Holy Sky Sect unifying all of the Hidden Sect. Another reason was that Sheng Tianyang had secretly built a treasure cave containing a large amount of Spirit Stones, top-level Cultivation Techniques, Spiritual Artifacts, and various Spiritual Medicines and Elixirs."
"These forces wanted to seize these treasures. However, with the death of Sheng Tianyang and the destruction of the Holy Sky Alliance, the whereabouts of the treasure became unknown. It was only known through some insiders of the Holy Sky Sect that Sheng Tianyang had left behind a map to find this treasure."
"Later, when facing the siege of the great forces, Sheng Tianyang divided the map into several pieces, entrusting each to reliable subordinates. Throughout this hundred years, all the great forces have been searching for these treasure maps."
"Now, one of these maps is about to appear at this auction. The Valley Master has ordered us to obtain it at all costs. If we can get our hands on this treasure, Ruthless Valley will undoubtedly be able to grow stronger, becoming a top-tier great force."
All four Elders had a resolute expression on their faces.
And Bing Xinâs eyes were flickering with light, seemingly lost in thought.
Soon, night fell, and in the newly bought villa, all the women had already arrived. They were surprised and delighted by the luxurious and vast villa estate.
"This house is really huge, and it has all kinds of facilities, even a gym and a movie theater. Itâs amazing," the women exclaimed in admiration.
"From now on, you all will live here. All the daily necessities and various other things have been prepared," Ye Luo said indifferently.
"Master!"
At this moment, Sakura Miko and the other two women appeared, bowing and addressing Ye Luo.
The other women were taken aback upon seeing the three of them.
"Ye Luo, where on earth did you find these beautiful women, and there are two young matrons among them? You really are something, arenât you? You just moved to a new place, and youâve brought several beauties with you. You truly aspire to be an Emperor," Yan Ling couldnât help but say as she looked at Ye Luo.
"They are my female slaves, donât get any funny ideas," Ye Luo quipped with a twitch of his mouth.
"Female slaves? You really are living the high life, using female slaves now. I think you really do want to be an Emperor," Yan Ling teased.
"Is dinner ready?" Ye Luo asked the three women of Sakura Ryuu.
"Itâs ready," Sakura Miko nodded. She showed no resentment about being asked to cook as Ye Luoâs female slave. It was hard to believe that she used to be the young miss of Sakura Ryuu, and also a master at the Innate Peak Stage.
"Sister, donât listen to this guy anymore, no matter what your relationship with him is, since you live together, youâre our sister. Letâs all have a meal together." Li Wanqin stepped forward, took Sakura Mikoâs hand, and said.
Just then, the villa doorbell suddenly rang. Lin Xiaoyan went to open the door and saw Ling Qingya standing outside with her suitcase.
Seeing Ling Qingya appear, all the women were shocked, especially Li Wanqin, whose face went through several changes, looking somewhat unnatural.
"Qingya, youâre here, come in," Ye Luo smiled as he saw Ling Qingya, and went straight over to her.
"Hi!"
Suddenly, Han Mengxi popped out from behind Ling Qingya and looked at him with a grin.
"How come youâre here?" Ye Luo looked at Han Mengxi with a face full of surprise.
"Mengxi is moving in with me here," Ling Qingya said.
"What? Sheâs moving in, too?" Ye Luo was momentarily stunned.
"Why, arenât you welcoming? I mean, Iâm quite the beauty, and you still donât want to live in the same house with me? Plus, you asked Qingya to move in here, it would be so boring for me to live alone. Wherever Qingya goes, I follow," Han Mengxi said, linking her arm through Ling Qingyaâs.
"Alright, come on in. Thereâs plenty of room in this house. If you want to live here, just stay," Ye Luo said, then led them inside.
For a moment, all the women in the villa looked at Ling Qingya, Ye Luoâs official fiancĂ©e, with various expressions.
"Wan Qin, how have you been recently?" Ling Qingya looked at Li Wanqin with a smile, evidently no longer angry with her.
This was their first face-to-face meeting since the last incident. Seeing Ling Qingya initiate conversation, Li Wanqinâs eyes flickered.
"Iâve been fine!"
"Everything that happened before is in the past. Can you come back to Ling Corporation to help me?" Ling Qingya said.
"I..."
"Miss Ling, that wonât work, Qingya is now our Mei Yueâs sales director, and Mei Yue simply canât do without her," Yan Ling quickly interjected.
"If thatâs the case, I wonât insist," Ling Qingya replied, then turned to all the women, "Ladies, Iâm Ling Qingya, Ye Luoâs fiancĂ©e. Weâll be living together from now on, so I hope you donât mind."
All the women looked at each other with glinting eyes, but remained silent. Luo Jingxuan came over and said to Ling Qingya, "Weâre all very happy to have Miss Ling move in."
"Youâre Ye Luoâs auntie, so Iâll call you Auntie from now on," Ling Qingya said to Luo Jingxuan.
"You can call me whatever, it doesnât matter," Luo Jingxuan responded indifferently, her eyes flashing a strange look as she regarded Ling Qingya.
Seeing this, Ye Luo quickly said, "Alright, now that everyone is here, letâs start the meal. Letâs all sit down to eat; consider this our housewarming feast."
Everyone found a seat, and fortunately, the table was long enough; otherwise, they probably wouldnât have all fit. The table was surrounded by dozens of women.
Each one was stunning, with lolis, mature ladies, housewivesâall types represented, truly a blossoming of hundreds of flowers, with only Ye Luo as the sole male, enjoying an incredible fortune, truly evoking the feeling of an ancient emperor.
