?"I didn't expect that our problems were getting more serious." Yi Shu said as he let out a heavy sigh, especially after he listened to Ye Jing's story. "When will our husband return?"
"He'll be back tomorrow, and he wants to take us into seclusion for a few days, but he will go to that mysterious realm after we finish."
The other women looked excited after hearing that, but Li Na then said to them. "Unfortunately, we can't accompany him to challenge that mysterious tower, and we also don't know when he will return, so we have to focus on our training in this sect while waiting for his return."
"I agree with you." Shui Lan said that as she nodded repeatedly. "Unfortunately, this sect is like a dead sect, and no one gives missions to this sect, so we can't do much here. Which of our other sisters will go to the mysterious tower?"
Ye Jing thought about some of their sisters before telling them that Lian Bing, Feng Ling'er, Mu Su Shu, Xiao Xiao, and Feng Ruxue would go to the tower. Meanwhile, Helena, Ling Yu'er, Feng Xing, Long Qiu, Wen Qing, and Mariel were still waiting for the results of their seclusion, as they needed to break through to Emperor Realm first.
Li Na and the others sighed in disappointment, especially since they wanted to accompany their husbands, but their cultivation was still insufficient, and Ye Jing then spoke to them again. "We can't challenge that tower for now, but we don't need to be jealous of our other sisters, and we have to work hard to catch up with them. Moreover, Senior Tang Chen told me that there are many valuable treasures in that tower, and Yun will share them with us if they are beneficial to our cultivation, so we will challenge the tower in the future."
"Our husband will not forget us, and he will share everything with us fairly." Ying Zi then walked away. "Let's go; we can't slack off, especially since our enemies will arrive soon, and we also have to catch up with our big sisters' cultivation."
Ye Jing and the others followed Ying Zi, and they trained together in a special place, especially since the Hidden Sea Palace did not have many disciples; even the number of sect higher-ups was only a few, so almost no one could teach them.

At the Hidden Valley sect, Helena and the two beast women went to meet Xing Yang to ask for his permission to leave the sect, or else the sect people would be confused looking for them.
Xing Yang didn't mind that, especially since Long De and the others had given them their freedom. "All right, you guys can go back, but you have to come back here after seclusion. Anyway, I heard the Sect Master and Elder Zhu are away from the sect to look for two beast women, and they suspect that both of them are mythical beasts, so they want to tame them."
"Hmm?" Helena frowned after hearing that. "Do you know their characteristics?"
"No, I only heard this news from an elder whose status is higher than mine." Helena was no longer surprised by that, especially since the difference in status of each person in the Hidden Valley Sect was too stark. "However, I heard that those two beast women have a high affinity with the fire element."
"High affinity with the fire element?" Helena and the others immediately realized their identities. "Sect Master Long and Elder Zhu are indeed powerful, but they would never manage to find them, let alone tame them. Even if they did manage to find them, they wouldn't be able to do anything to them, and they would be the ones to suffer if they tried to do so."
"Do you really know them?"
The three women nodded to Xiang Yang. "They should be the Feng ancestors, especially since they previously went together to look around this realm, and their affinity with the fire element is very high."
"I see." Xiang Yang nodded in understanding. "Do you think I should tell them about this matter? That way they can abandon their intentions, and there won't be any problems between us."
"No need." Helena refused by shaking her head. "Everything will be fine because they will go with our husband to another realm, and they also don't want to be known by other people, so I'm sure that no problems will occur between us."
"How did Sect Master and Elder Zhu know about them, Elder Xiang?" Fay asked him.
Xiang Yang sighed softly and told her directly. "Ren Shou and Jiu Tianxin met them in Song City, and they wanted to tame them, but someone saved them, so they contacted Xue Bao. However, she couldn't find their trace, so she contacted the Sect Master and Elder Zhu to help them."
"Ren Shou, Jiu Tianxin, and Xue Bao, huh?" Helena muttered softly before contacting Ling Yun through the harem connection, and she told him everything, but he didn't think much about it. "In that case, we will return to our room first, Elder Xiang."
"Okay, you guys can return."
However, when they left Xiang Yang's room, Lan Zhi was waiting for them outside, and she asked them. "Can I come with you? I'm bored in this sect, so I want to see the outside world, and I promise not to tell anyone else."
Helena smiled faintly after she remembered that Ling Yun was interested in Lan Zhi, so she agreed to her request. "Yes, I will take you with us tomorrow, and we will return to the sect in a week."

At Firecloud Manor, Mariel informed the other women about Ling Yun's plan, surprising them. "Tomorrow, Sister Qingge and I will return to our residence, so the three of you must be careful in the sect, especially you, Feng Yao."
"I think I'll come with you two." Mariel and Feng Qingge were surprised to hear Feng Yao's answer. "I've pushed aside my feelings for too long, and I think it's time for me to accept my feelings, so I'm going to join you guys in entering seclusion."
"Are you really ready to become Ling Yun's wife, Yao?" Huo Rui curiously asked.
"Yes." On the one hand, Feng Yao had long been in love with Ling Yun, especially after he saved her from the Shui Clan's assassins. On the other hand, she also wanted to become as strong as her sisters, and he could help her with that, so she decided that.
Huo Ziqi then said to them. "In that case, Rui and I will look for some easy missions, and we will train outside the sect while doing those missions."
"I don't think it's a problem, but the two of you must be very careful when traveling outside the sect, and you must flee immediately if you encounter any suspicious people, or you will end up like Yuan Meng and the others." The Huo twins nodded in agreement with that, and they then went to see Xia Xinyan to inform her of their plans, especially since they had always been under her supervision.

"Fortunately, we got help from the Zhiyu Clan, so the renovation of this building went faster than we expected, and we can open our chamber of commerce soon." Su Fei said as she watched the people working on the renovations, and she then turned to Feng Zhirou. "Are you sure you can handle everything yourself? We will be returning to our residence for a week, so we can't accompany you in this city."
Feng Zhirou nodded as she spoke. "It's okay; you can enter into seclusion with Ling Yun, and I will handle everything here, so we can open our business after you return. Moreover, Senior Qiyue and Senior Sha will accompany me here, so I think there won't be any significant problems."
*Tap... Tap...*
Hearing the sound of footsteps, they immediately turned towards the exit, and Dongfang Wenyue walked in together with Tian Sha. "I've talked about our cooperation with my father, and he has already agreed to it, so we will announce our cooperation after your business opens."
"That's great!" Su Fei exclaimed while clasping her hands. "I will inform my mother about this problem, and she has started preparing the items that we will sell later, so we can start after the renovation of this building is complete."
"En." Dongfang Wenyue then asked her. "Why didn't your husband come to this city? Wouldn't it be better if he also met me? So we could get to know each other better, and that would be good for our cooperation."
Situ Luan immediately answered Dongfang Wenyue's question. "Senior, our husband is busy preparing himself before going to another realm, and he will probably be away for quite some time, so he can't come here to meet you yet, but I will inform him that you want to meet him."
"Another realm? Which realm is he going to?"
"The mysterious realm, and our husband wants to challenge that mysterious tower." Dongfang Wenyue's expression turned surprised after hearing Su Fei's answer. "He wants to continue to hone himself with new challenges, and people say that the beasts in the tower are very strong, so he wants to challenge them."
Dongfang Wenyue nodded in agreement with that. "You're right, that mysterious tower is indeed the best place to develop ourselves; even I myself want to challenge those beasts again, but I'm too busy taking care of my clan's business now."
