Chapter 765: Much-needed Support
“Yes, Eldest Grandfather, we will work hard. We will go and cultivate right now!” The moment Su Yanhua and the rest heard that there was a chance to visit the various great sects to gain experience, they excitedly rushed off to cultivate.
Seeing the enthusiasm of the Su family disciples, Su Yizhi was greatly gratified, but also a bit worried.
“Elder Su, these sects won’t be that easy to talk to, right?” Ling Chuxi could see Su Yizhi’s worry and asked.
“Yes. You have also witnessed the pride of these sects, so you should know that wanting to obtain their approval is no easy matter. The good thing is that our Golden Pill Sect is famous for its medical skills. In the past, these sects used to visit us if they needed medical assistance, so perhaps taking into account the relationships of the past, they might entertain us,” Su Yizhi said hesitantly, obviously also not very confident.
Ling Chuxi did not say anything. ‘The strong is respected’ was the unspoken rule of cultivators everywhere. Although the current Su family had combined three streams of medical skills into one, their martial art skills were still a little weak. Wanting to obtain the acknowledgement of the other sects was indeed not that easy.
Ling Chuxi thought about Big Brother’s token. Ling Wushang’s position in Flowing Clouds Sect was quite high, and if he were to make an appearance, the Flowing Clouds Sect Master might be easier to talk to, but what about the other sects?
“You all don’t need to be too worried. My Celestial Sect has also received benefits from the Golden Pill Sect and we will definitely do our best to aid you all in rebuilding the sect. If there is a need, I can also help you all out.” Duan Qingchen appeared behind them and spoke up.
“Many thanks then, Sect Master Duan!” Su Yizhi was overjoyed as he bowed to Duan Qingchen. Although he suspected that Duan Qingchen would help them because of Ling Chuxi, hearing him personally say it was more comforting.
The Celestial Sect was considered the number one amongst the five great sects and Duan Qingchen had great prestige amongst the sects. With his appearance, things would definitely go a lot smoother. Furthermore, there were quite a few small sects that depended on the Celestial Sect, so as long as he opened his mouth, those small sects wouldn’t dare object.
“Haha, last time it was all thanks to Miss Ling that my family’s Xiaomo managed to survive. It can also be considered my repayment to the Golden Pill Sect.” Duan Qingchen heartily laughed as he spoke.
“Then I shall excuse myself first. Chuxi, you and Sect Master Duan can continue chatting.” Su Yizhi knew that Duan Qingchen definitely had his own motives for coming here. Even if he wanted to repay a favor, with his identity and position, he could simply send some people over, there was no need for him to personally rush over. The Celestial Sect once receiving benefits from the Golden Pill Sect was merely an excuse.
However, Duan Qingchen had not spoken about it these past few days, probably because there were some taboos involved, so Su Yizhi had avoided bringing it up.
“Sect Master Duan, many thanks.” After Su Yizhi left, Ling Chuxi also said her thanks to Duan Qingchen.
“If Miss Ling doesn’t see me as an outsider, then just calling me Uncle Duan will do,” Duan Qingchen said, obviously wanting to close the distance between them.
“Alright Uncle Duan, just call me Chuxi then,” Ling Chuxi smiled kindly as she said.
The situation in the Sacred Realm of Sects was even more complicated than that of the various countries, and their cultivation was much stronger as well. She had been looking for someone powerful to support them in rebuilding the sect, and since Duan Qingchen had generously offered his support, Ling Chuxi accepted it graciously.
“Chuxi, since you call me Uncle Duan, then let me be straightforward: The reason I came to the Golden Pill Sect is actually because I have a request to make of you,” Duan Qingchen said solemnly to Ling Chuxi.
This was still the first time Duan Qingchen had used such a way to bring up this matter.
