As a loose cultivator, Ling Xue had surprisingly reached the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, a level of talent and strength that truly commanded respect. The sect leader felt a surge of admiration for her abilities. After a moment of contemplation, he slowly spoke, "Ling Xue, you indeed possess a certain spiritual aptitude. However, to join my Youmei Dual Cultivation Sect, you must undergo some trials. As for your Meihuan Sect, if you are willing, it can become an affiliated sect of ours. This way, you would receive our protection and share in some cultivation resources, which would benefit both parties. What do you think?"
Ling Xue's heart stirred; she understood the pros and cons of becoming an affiliated sect of Youmei Dual Cultivation Sect. On one hand, this would bring numerous advantages to Meihuan Sect, such as strong protection and abundant cultivation resources; on the other hand, it might also mean losing some autonomy. Considering the current situation of Meihuan Sect and the future of her disciples, she felt this might be a good choice. However, she could not agree immediately; doing so would surely make the sect leader look down on her.
Ling Xue slightly bowed and respectfully said, "Thank you for your kindness, esteemed sect leader. I am truly grateful. Regarding the matter of becoming an affiliated sect, I need to discuss it with my fellow disciples first. Regardless, I hope you can give my disciple a chance to participate in your trials."
The sect leader nodded slightly and replied, "You may take your time to consider. Once you have made a decision, feel free to inform me. As for this child's trials, I will arrange for someone to notify you."
Ling Xue bowed again and then left Youmei Dual Cultivation Sect with Zhao Fang.
Ten days later, Ling Xue returned to Youmei Dual Cultivation Sect. Her expression was resolute as she expressed Meihuan Sect's willingness to submit and also requested certain cultivation resources.
The sect leader looked at Ling Xue with a complex expression in his eyes. He could tell that Ling Xue practiced the Dual Cultivation Technique and that she was currently pregnant.
After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Since your Meihuan Sect is willing to submit, Youmei Dual Cultivation Sect will provide protection. However, Meihuan Sect must supply one hundred Qi Refining Stage cultivators each year as Ding Lu. In return, our sect will provide various cultivation resources annually."
Ling Xue's heart tightened; this requirement was undeniably harsh. One hundred Qi Refining Stage cultivators was no small number for Meihuan Sect. She understood that Meihuan Sect needed Youmei Dual Cultivation Sect's protection and that cultivation resources were crucial for the development of their sect. Ling Xue slightly bowed and said, "Esteemed sect leader, providing one hundred Qi Refining Stage cultivators is indeed quite challenging for Meihuan Sect. I will do my best to fulfill this requirement. I hope you can keep your promise and provide sufficient protection and cultivation resources for us. I will deliver the Ding Lu within three days and hope that you can grant us adequate resources in return."
The sect leader nodded and assured her, "Rest assured; Youmei Dual Cultivation Sect keeps its word. As long as you fulfill your promise, we will ensure your safety."
The three-day deadline approached quickly, and Ling Xue faced immense pressure. The demands from Youmei Dual Cultivation Sect were exceedingly strict; although her Gongfa allowed her to gain considerable cultivation through dual cultivation with powerful cultivators, the Gongfa from Youmei Dual Cultivation Sect was too domineering—those provided cultivators might find their progress stunted.
Ling Xue had Cui Er check the current situation within the sect but found the results disheartening: there were only over fifty Qi Refining cultivators left; the rest were at the Qi Into Body stage. In this urgent moment, Ling Xue had no choice but to consider those servants and guards.
She decided to personally engage in dual cultivation with them, channeling her Gongfa into their bodies. Although this approach could produce a large number of Qi Refining cultivators, it came at a significant cost—these individuals might become mentally impaired or even explode due to the strain on their bodies; moreover, their cultivation would forever remain at the Qi Refining Stage. However, as Ding Lu candidates, they were indeed suitable choices.
After three days of effort from Ling Xue, she finally cultivated two hundred Qi Refining Stage cultivators—one hundred were submitted to Youmei Dual Cultivation Sect while another hundred were kept for her disciples in hopes of rapid strengthening. The population was nearly sufficient; each month nearly one hundred male and female servants were sold to Zhao Mansion—the females could be transformed into disciples who could earn income at Heavenly Harmony Pavilion while the males would serve as Ding Lu candidates.
