Chapter 1128: Chapter 1128: Refusal

Swiftwind Valley, although thousands of miles away, was a renowned second-tier sect in the True Martial Realm.

With over ten thousand disciples, the presence of numerous Cosmic Level Experts, and thousands of Vast Level Experts, even the weakest menial servant disciple possessed Desolate Level Perfection.

This tremendous power was nothing short of terrifying. In the eyes of Swiftwind Valley, Xuannv Sect, a third-tier sect, was no different from an ant, easily crushable.

Although Yang Ruojun was known for her firmness, she dared not risk the annihilation of her sect by offending Swiftwind Valley. Thus, when the Feng brothers initially requested to meet the Linghu sisters, she had to arrange a meeting. Unexpectedly, not long after, Swiftwind Valley sent an envoy again, proposing a marriage alliance between the two sects, promising enough cultivation resources for numerous years for Xuannv Sect’s disciples if the marriage succeeded, and even offering to help eliminate Dragon Tiger Palace.

These two conditions promised by Swiftwind Valley were what Yang Ruojun had dreamt of.

After convening the sect’s upper echelons, Yang Ruojun, despite opposition from some senior members, decisively agreed to the marriage alliance with Swiftwind Valley.

Yang Ruojun believed that receiving vast cultivation resources from Swiftwind Valley would garner broad support from her disciples; destroying Dragon Tiger Palace would also cement her reputation, marking a significant achievement in Xuannv Sect’s history.

Especially the latter carried an irresistible allure to someone prizing reputation and face, like Yang Ruojun.

Moreover, by marrying into such a powerful second-tier sect as Swiftwind Valley, Xuannv Sect could leverage this relationship to sustain its prosperity and maintain its dominance in Qingping Country for years to come.

However, Yang Ruojun was vexed when, after agreeing to the Swiftwind Valley Envoy’s proposal and sending him away, she turned to persuade Linghu Qian Jiao and Linghu Bai Mei, only to face their outright refusal, with no room for negotiation.

Yang Ruojun did not know that Linghu Qian Jiao and Linghu Bai Mei had already pledged their hearts to Fang Bai in the Secular World. After arriving in the True Martial Realm, though they didn’t know Fang Bai’s whereabouts, they had practiced the martial arts techniques he taught and developed a special telepathic connection with him, confirming that he was still alive and believing that they would reunite one day.

Hence, naturally, they were unwilling when the Feng brothers proposed marriage, and they rejected it without hesitation.

After that, to escape the arranged marriage, the Linghu sisters even plotted to flee Xuannv Sect but were discovered by a patrolling disciple and captured.

Such a response from the Linghu sisters made Yang Ruojun feel that her dignity as Sect Leader was challenged. In a fit of anger, she imprisoned the sisters in Reflection Valley at the back of the mountain and warned them that they would only be released if they agreed to be martial companions with the Feng brothers from Swiftwind Valley, or else they would end their days in Reflection Valley.

The prohibitive formations set up around Reflection Valley blocked all Heaven and Earth Origin Energy outside the valley, making it impossible for the imprisoned martial artists to absorb essence energy for cultivation or receive any cultivation resources. No senior member would come to teach martial arts techniques, and over time, their strength would inevitably degrade, an extremely cruel fate for any martial artist.

Yang Ruojun initially thought this would force the Linghu sisters to submit, but to her surprise, after being imprisoned for over a month, the stubborn sisters still refused to yield.

Helpless, Yang Ruojun had Linghu Hongyan come every few days to persuade them, hoping the sisters would eventually see the error of their ways.

Just today, Elder Qiu Heming of Swiftwind Valley arrived at Xuannv Sect with the Feng brothers, ready to proceed with the marriage alliance between the two sects.

Upon seeing the disciples of Swiftwind Valley, Yang Ruojun felt a tremendous headache and simply let Linghu Hongyan take Qiu Heming and the Feng brothers to persuade the Linghu sisters, subtly indicating that Linghu Hongyan could use forceful measures to facilitate the marriage if necessary.

Yang Ruojun himself, along with the senior echelons of the Xuannv Sect, decided out of sight, out of mind, and hid inside the Xuannv Hall.

Just when Yang Ruojun was immersed in a delightful dream about leading the Xuannv Sect to its peak and becoming the only third-ranked sect in Qingping Country, the warning bell at the mountain gate suddenly rang. Realizing the sect was under attack, he immediately led the senior echelons out of Xuannv Hall to the plaza at the mountain gate, where they clashed with disciples from the leading sect, Dragon Tiger Palace, among the five major sects.

Yang Ruojun was unafraid of starting a war with Dragon Tiger Palace and the other four major sects, thinking that since an elder and two direct disciples of Swiftwind Valley were in Reflection Valley behind the mountain, and with the marriage alliance imminent, the disciples of Swiftwind Valley would morally and logically not stand idly by.

The three disciples from Swiftwind Valley in Reflection Valley, one a mid-rank Cosmic Level expert and two Desolate Level Perfection experts, could significantly alter the course of the battle should they intervene.

Of course, the premise was that Qianjiao Linghu and Baimei Linghu agreed to the marriage with the Feng brothers; otherwise, the three disciples from Swiftwind Valley might well stand by or even kick the sect when it was down, leaving Xuannv Sect to face possible extinction.

Fortunately, Yang Ruojun had already hinted to the three disciples of Swiftwind Valley that if their marriage proposal was rejected again by the Linghu sisters, they could subdue the sisters using both soft and hard measures.

In Yang Ruojun’s view, the interests of the Xuannv Sect were paramount, and any sacrifice of the Linghu sisters would be worth it.

Upon receiving Yang Ruojun’s hint, brothers Feng Shijun and Feng Shijie were overjoyed, already considering the Linghu sisters as sure bets.

This time, Qiu Heming, with the Feng brothers and accompanied by Linghu Hongyan, personally visited Reflection Valley to once again propose marriage to the Linghu sisters, only to face their steadfast refusal, which greatly displeased and angered him.

"That’s right, Junior Sisters Linghu, in what way are we brothers unsuitable for you? Other female disciples from various sects cry and beg to become partners in the Martial Dao with us, yet we don’t even agree!"

Feng Shijun gently flicked his folding fan, raised his eyebrows as he spoke, and his gaze lingered on Qianjiao Linghu’s exquisitely beautiful face; the more he looked, the more satisfied he became, wanting to go over and taste what Qianjiao Linghu’s petal-soft lips would feel like.

Feng Shijie’s gaze, meanwhile, stayed fixed on Baimei Linghu’s graceful figure, visibly salivating.

Among the Feng brothers, elder brother Feng Shijun preferred the pure and elegant Qianjiao Linghu, whereas younger brother Feng Shijie favored the charming and sultry Baimei Linghu; they had long decided that they would take the Linghu sisters with them this time, no matter what.

Qianjiao Linghu, not one for talking and too disgusted to engage with the two unwanted disciples from Swiftwind Valley in front of her, remained silent in response to their inquiries, merely replying with a cold stare.

Baimei Linghu, however, had her mind racing, contemplating ways to escape the Fen brothers’ persistence. Her eyes darting, she suddenly spoke earnestly, "To be honest, the reason we sisters refuse the marriage is that we already have partners in the Martial Dao."
