Chapter 131 Each Performs Their Duties
Qin Xiao led Fairy Yaoguang to the main seat and said gently, "Please sit down. From today onwards, Yaoguang officially enters my harem as Consort Yaoguang. She is a descendant of the ancient Xuanji Pavilion, with extensive knowledge and profound cultivation. In the future, you sisters should get closer and encourage each other."
Fairy Yaoguang also rose, gave a slight bow to the six women, and said in a clear voice, "I am new here, and I hope you sisters will take good care of me in the future."
Her posture was neither humble nor arrogant, possessing both the elegance of an ancient fairy and an expression of acceptance.
"You're too kind, sister!"
Yu Fengling was the first to speak, her peach blossom eyes curving into crescents, "We've been eagerly awaiting your arrival, Sister! You don't know how curious we've been about the ancient times when our husbands told us about them! We'll have to ask you for your guidance in the future!"
Li Changle nodded vigorously, her fiery red eyes filled with sincerity: "Sister Yaoguang saved my husband and helped him comprehend the power of space. We are all grateful to her!"
As the de facto head of the harem, Luo Qingluan said gently, "Sister Yaoguang, there's no need to be so formal. Since we're family, there's no need for such formalities. Is your injury much better? If you need anything, please feel free to ask."
Although Yu Qingyi didn't say much, she nodded slightly to Fairy Yaoguang, a hint of approval flashing in her cool eyes.
Mu Ziyan and Li Anning also smiled and greeted each other.
The atmosphere was harmonious and natural.
Fairy Yaoguang's unease dissipated in the face of this sincere acceptance.
She nodded slightly, a sincere smile playing on her lips: "Thank you, my sisters. Yaoguang will certainly work together with you to assist His Majesty and jointly explore the Great Dao."
The following topics naturally revolved around the experiences in the Xuanming Land, Qin Xiao's newly acquired spatial power, and Fairy Yaoguang's restored cultivation level.
When they heard that Qin Xiao had almost saved Yu Fengling using the spatial displacement technique, all the women were filled with lingering fear, and their gazes toward Qin Xiao were now filled with even more affection and heartache.
Yu Fengling's eyes reddened, and she snuggled up to Qin Xiao, saying, "Husband, you mustn't take such risks again next time!"
"Alright, I agree."
Qin Xiao smiled and ruffled her hair.
Fairy Yaoguang then spoke of some ancient experiences, the Dao of Space, and the Xuanji Pavilion's techniques.
"Now that Yaoguang has recovered and officially entered the palace, some things should be put on the agenda."
Qin Xiao suddenly spoke to the seven women.
Upon hearing this, all the women suppressed their smiles and listened intently.
"The ruins of Xuanji Pavilion are located deep within the Starfall Mountains. We were unable to explore them thoroughly last time."
"There may be more clues there about the ancient changes, the Soul Devouring Array, and even the Tianluo Sect."
"There might even be ancient books and treasures left behind by the Xuanji Pavilion."
"I plan to wait until Yao Guang's cultivation is more stable before choosing a day to go and investigate."
Fairy Yaoguang's gaze sharpened, and she nodded, saying, "It is my duty. Although thousands of years have passed, the core restrictions of the sect may still remain. I can try to open them with the token and my memories."
Qin Xiao nodded slightly and continued, "Recently, the resources and qualified women sent by the Western Liang, Northern Rong, Southern Dian, and even the Western Regions have been increasing. As the outer court grows larger, a more comprehensive selection, training, and management system is needed. Qingluan, you will take overall charge of this matter, with Qingyi assisting you in formulating detailed regulations. Those with both talent and good character can be brought into the inner palace or given focused training, as they may become valuable assets in the future."
"I understand."
Luo Qingluan and her two daughters nodded solemnly.
"besides……"
Qin Xiao's gaze swept over the women, finally settling on Fairy Yao Guang. "Yao Guang's cultivation method is unique. The power of the moon and the way of the stars complement and enhance my five elements and even the power of space. I need to go into seclusion for a period of time to cultivate deeply with Yao Guang, further harmonize our spiritual powers, explore the path of fusion, and perhaps create a new cultivation method. During this period, all matters in the palace will be decided by Qing Luan and Qing Yi."
Upon hearing that Qin Xiao was going to cultivate in seclusion with Fairy Yaoguang, the women showed no jealousy, but rather looked on with anticipation.
They had already deeply experienced the benefits of cultivating the "Hehuan Immortal Scripture" with Qin Xiao.
Now that my husband can engage in in-depth cultivation with Sister Yaoguang, who has a higher level of knowledge and cultivation, he will surely gain even more.
The entire harem will benefit from this!
"My husband, please rest assured and stay in seclusion. We will take care of everything in the palace."
Yu Qingyi spoke in a cool and resolute tone.
Fairy Yaoguang's ears turned slightly red, but her expression remained calm.
As fellow Daoists, this is our duty and also a necessity of the Great Dao.
"it is good."
Qin Xiao nodded in satisfaction, "Then it's settled. I and Yaoguang will begin our seclusion."
"Yes, my husband."
After the matter was settled, everyone chatted for a while before dispersing to either attend to palace affairs or return to their rooms to cultivate.
Watching Fairy Yaoguang's graceful figure recede into the distance, Yu Fengling leaned close to Mu Ziyan and whispered with a smile, "Sister Ziyan, I think Sister Yaoguang's walking posture seems a little different... Husband, really, doesn't know how to cherish a lady at all."
Mu Ziyan blushed slightly and patted her lightly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Sister Yaoguang's cultivation is profound; she'll be fine soon if she feels a little unwell. As for you, why aren't you going to cultivate? Be careful that you don't get outdone by Qingyi again when your husband tests you next time."
The phrase "Be careful not to be outdone by Qingyi" indeed ignited Yu Fengling's competitive spirit.
"No way! I'll go cultivate right now, and next time I'll definitely impress my husband!"
After saying that, he rushed to the quiet room to concentrate on his cultivation.
Mu Ziyan shook her head and chuckled, then turned and headed towards the alchemy room.
She has recently gained considerable knowledge about a "Spirit Nourishing Pill" that can help Golden Core cultivators condense their divine souls, and is looking forward to trying to improve it.
Li Anning and Li Changle exchanged a glance and walked towards the training ground in tacit agreement.
Luo Qingluan and Yu Qingyi walked side by side toward the side hall where palace affairs were handled.
The second batch of resource lists sent by the Western Liang and Northern Rong states needs to be verified.
The qualification assessment and class assignment for the newly admitted female students in the Foreign Languages Department also need to be finalized as soon as possible.
Within the imperial harem, each person had their own duties.
The rhythm of cultivation and management is well-ordered.
……
Yangxin Pavilion.
It has now officially become Yaoguang's bedroom.
Qin Xiao did not rush to begin his seclusion immediately.
For ancient cultivators who have just received the first inclinations to cultivate the special Yao Guang technique together, both of them need to adjust their condition to the best.
Most importantly, Yaoguang has been asleep for a hundred years, so her body has to be able to handle it!
"Although the formation here can gather spiritual energy and maintain stillness, it is somewhat lacking in the ability to draw in stellar power and harmonize the moonlight."
Qin Xiao stood in the pavilion, his divine sense sweeping across the room, and pondered.
Fairy Yaoguang nodded: "Your Majesty is absolutely right. The core of my Xuanji Pavilion's cultivation method lies in drawing upon the power of the stars and merging with the essence of the moon. If a simple 'Star-Gathering Array' and 'Moon-Gathering Array' can be set up in the secluded cultivation area, supplemented by the foundation of the Five Elements balance, the effect will be even better."
Qin Xiao seemed to be deep in thought. "The lineage of cultivation has been interrupted, and I myself have only explored formations on my own, so my knowledge is not profound. Fairy, you can tell me the formation diagram and key points, and I will set it up."
