Dual Cultivation God Returns

This development was something he foresaw, even prior to acting against the invaders.

And while it could seem as a positive one, there was a massive drawback, in that the role he played for this Sect changed too fast, without the meaningful tof building trust or even proper rapport.

Such rapid shifts in relationships with groups of multiple individuals were in his experience very problematic.

'There are always those who require tto adjust and process change, this is part of what conservative view is'

His eyes narrowed looking at the minute changes in looks and expressions of the men before him.

While there were sexceptions in which conservative figures took the most progressive stances on sissues guided by various reasons, much like Grand Elder Jiu was now, the general trend of conservatism was waiting for a progressive stance to stand the test of tand scrutiny.

With that treduced to almost nothing, that portion of the group would then turn disgruntled which led to various degrees and variations of complications, from arguments and minor conflicts between individuals within the group, to outright betrayal or separation of the group into two or even more shards.

He knew well the creepy feeling one could get when a new face appearing for the first tin the life of a long-standing group, becomes a savior of the day, instantly gaining trust and recognition of the majority, and beloved by almost everyone around, and even doubt in that new individual could make one ostracized.

There were almost always those who had doubts, that only grew the more fervent the belief of those around was.

'Heh, and they are not wrong to doubt, reasonable doubt is called caution'

He inwardly chuckled.

In many cases, there indeed was a hidden part of the picture that most failed to see. A schor a plan.

And even if it was not so in this case, and while he anticipated the development, he still had to recognize that this was the shortest way to gain the support of the Brilliant Sun Temple, without needing much twhich currently was not in such abundance for this specific type of activities.

Not to mention that the alternative was the decimation of the Brilliant Sun Temple. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn NovᴇlFir(e).nᴇt

And if he tried to hide his prowess, which he was not going to do either way, that in turn would have made the council of Great Elders even more doubtful he actually had what it took to help them navigate the conflict, defeating the purpose of his visit.

'So... to mitigate the worst outcomes...'

He then smiled, inwardly making a judgement call on the situation as the Grand Elders were about to cto a decision.

"As I said before, I appreciate your gratitude and trust.

That said, rush decisions often lead to regrets.

I am sure that there are those here who are genuinely concerned for the fate of the Sect and while recognizing what I did and the validity of my claim to having means to help you, are still reluctant to abandon all caution.

I am still an outsider"

He chose the most straightforward and effective way he knew in these types of situations, honesty.

"I am not going to lie, it would be a lot easier forif you would accept my help and also grantaccess to your legacy this moment.

And that is what I want.

However, the fact that this decision is right or wrong in the view of sof you, does not warrant skipping the procedure to adopt or reject it.

I dislike formalities. I don't ignore process where it is due"

His words caused a look of cautious respect to appear in the eyes of the conservative Grand Elders, and a slightly troubled look in the eyes of the Temple Master, while Grand Elder Gan had something akin to admiration appear in his.

"What do you propose then?"

One of the Grand Elders spoke up, seeing that there was room for discussion.

"I will depart for now and cback in two weeks.

Make your decision by then. That should be a reasonable timefrto cto a decision given the urgency of the matter"

Wu Long's proposal was greeted with a look of approval even from those who reluctantly agreed to the proposition of Grand Elder Jiu before, as they still had something nagging at them telling that something was missing.

As they unanimously agreed, he spoke for a little while with Grand Elder Gan who escorted him to the shore, and left the island.

"Haa~, I should take Lan'er withon such occasions, it would be much easier to make decisions in favor of moral values instead of immediate gain that way"

He chuckled, as seeing her expression when he made such a choice would have made it a lot easier to do so.

Since the easiest way was to just accept the legacy right away and then dispose of any people who had doubts in the most direct violent way, possibly permanently damaging his relationship with the Brilliant Sun Temple.

Stlater, he discreetly arrived in the Yin Yang Unity Palace.

As he went through the passageways leading to the office of the Soaring Feather Trading Company's owner, he saw a delegation of the Tuamei Kingdom in a meeting room adjacent to the office, both rooms having a door leading to the reception and a door in between.

They were talking with the beautiful lady in silver long dress and a black shawl that covered the upper part of her body, as semi-transparent dark tights covering her beautiful long legs were a bit visible in the long slit on the side of the dress.

He smiled, going inside the office, let in by the secretary who knew him, putting a finger in front of his lips with a smile to which the latter nodded with a smile, and waiting a little.

"Haa~"

As the meeting got to a short break, Sui Luxiao cinto her office through the door between the rooms, brushing away a lock of hair with a slightly tired look, as these negotiations, while being almost finished, were now in the final tedious process of going through every single little detail.

"..! Wu Long!"

She then paused, sensing a gaze on her from the sofa on the side and behind her. And upon turning around, widened her eyes with both surprise and joy.

She did not feel his presence as Wu Long finally learned the way to adjust the way his women perceived his distance from them through their bond.

"You've been working hard, Luxiao"

He chuckled, standing up and coming up to her as she approached him as well, their lips meeting in a kiss.

"Haa~ I am not the one who is more exhausted"

She smiled at him, feeling his condition through their bond.

"Mm, I wanted to take you, Zhiqiu, Xiang'er and Mei'er back to the mansion right away, but as you are not yet finished with the negotiations, I guess we need to be here for a day or two more...

Though... I do have to give you your reward for working so hard"

He then chuckled, and she widened her eyes, turning her gaze to the thin sliding door between the office and the meeting room.

"Haha, don't worry, it will be quick"

He chuckled, and as she slightly hesitated, her eyes filling with both worry and excitement, as well as the desire to give him all the tenderness and love she could.

And then nodded while very slightly biting her lower lip.
