Chapter 117 Emperor's Decision



The prime minister continued, "The elders of the Sky Soaring Sect are wise; we have lived in harmony for a thousand years. I know they will not want to fight the royal family or weaken the Yin country, but I am sure they really have found many medium-sized mines. That is why it will be a good idea for us to strengthen our relationship with the Sky Soaring Sect because as their wealth increases, their power and strength will increase too. Even if they don\'t have Earth immortals, they still have the power of around seven nascent souls, which is nothing to scoff about."

The minister of war spoke, "Seven Nascent souls? The last time I heard, They only had three. How did they get seven?"

The emperor gave him a curious look too.

The prime minister spoke. "Your Majesty, I heard that the sky-soaring sect\'s past immortals had left behind some hidden beasts with the power of a nascent soul to protect the sect secretly. A few years ago, when the Cui family tried to capture one of the Core disciples of the sect, who was out on a sect mission. But instead of them capturing the core disciple, the members of the Cui family were caught by the beast. It is said that the beast that caught them can defeat even a soul formation cultivator, as recently, one nascent soul entered near Sky Soaring Sect\'s vicinity by mistake and was badly beaten by the beast."

The prime minister continued, "If we think about it, they have an array formation that could not be broken even by an earth immortal. They have confirmed seven nascent souls protecting their sect, of which one has the power of soul formation, and they even might have connections with some hidden family who have the power of earth immortal. From this, we can conclude that they are no weaker than the Li family anymore, and the royal family can not afford another competition, as Sky Soaring Sect is a neutral sect. We should try to strengthen our relationship with them."

The Emperor listened to the prime minister and found his suggestions right. He contemplated and spoke, "What do you suggest? How do we strengthen our relationship with the Sky Soaring Sect?"

The prime minister thought and spoke, "Your majesty, I have heard that the disciple of the sect master of the Sky Soaring sect is very talented and handsome. In the north of Yin, they even call  him the most beautiful man in the whole of Yin."

The Emperor thought, "So you suggest we strengthen our relationship with the sect through marriage?"

The Prime Minister nodded and said, " If what the people in the north say is right, then he would be the perfect match for Princess."

"Which princess would you suggest the prime minister", asked Emperor.

Prime Minister answered," Even if he is most good-looking, other princesses might not agree, except princess Ying."

The Emperor shook his head. "The elder was connected to Concubine Lan\'s family, which she will never allow after finding out. I am sure she will be going to complain about this to my mother. Which can be a big problem."

Emperor felt a headache coming; his mother doted on concubine Lan so she would certainly make a fuss.

The Emperor continued, "But what you mentioned is true; Yingr is mellow in nature compared to others. Her cultivation talent is not very good. I need to find the right partner for Yingr. Is Sky Soaring Sect participating in the royal tournament this year?"

The prime minister shook his head, "They don\'t have any eligible core disciples. Except for the sect master\'s disciple, who is only sixteen, it is said he is very talented, and the Qi he cultivates is freezing QI; he is already in core formation at such a young age."

The Emperor nodded. "That is indeed a talent. Let us invite them to the tournament as royal guest, even if they are not participating. I will personally meet the sect master and try to build a relationship with the Sky Soaring Sect."

The emperor continued, "Since there are a lot of outside cultivators visiting. There are many talented people visiting the north right now. Let us make this royal tournament grand. The winner will be awarded a minor grotto-world and heaven-grade weapon. If Princess finds a winner to her liking, the winner will have the opportunity to become a royal son-in-law."

Emperor felt very pleased for coming up with such an idea to recruit new talent in the royal clan.

Prime Minister and Minister of war were both shocked. Each of those prizes would make the cultivators really go crazy. Even earth immortals wouldn\'t be able to control the temptation when they hear about the grotto world and heaven-grade weapon.

The minister of the treasury spoke," Your majesty, giving away grotto heaven, isn\'t it a bit too much for just a tournament?"

The emperor laughed and spoke," That\'s why I added the term marrying Yingr. If they are powerful enough to win the tournament, then it means they are worth joining the royal clan to be nurtured. And once they marry into the royal clan, the treasures will not leave the royal clan."

Prime Miniter showed his concern," What if the winner of the tournament is not of the princess\'s liking?"

Emperor scoffed," Unlike her mother, Yingr\'s nature is mellow. She will not reject whatever her father asks of her. But if she does not agree, the winner can choose someone else to marry from royal clan. Worse comes to worst. We will have to snatch it back after the tournament."

**************************************************

Millions of miles away from Yin Country

The sun rose high above the clear blue ocean, casting a warm glow over the vast expanse of water that stretched out for millions of miles in every direction. An island that stood amidst this ocean was a remote paradise, untouched by human hands and home to only a few spirit beasts. Despite its isolation, the island was a place of immense beauty, a tropical paradise of pristine white sand beaches and crystal-clear waters that shimmered in the sunlight.

One of these beaches was particularly stunning, a long stretch of white sand that curved around the edge of the island, its bright blue waters lapping gently at the shore. At the edge of this beach, there stood a solitary figure reclining on a deck chair and sipping a refreshing drink.

The figure was none other than Han Cai. He opened his eyes and took a deep breath, savoring the scent of the salty sea air.

As Han Cai looked out across the ocean. The gentle sound of the waves lapping at the shore, the warm sun on his skin, and the cool breeze that blew in from the sea all combined to create a sense of relaxation. He took another sip of his drink, closing his eyes and letting out a contented sigh.

He murmured," This is life."

Standing behind Han Cai, holding a tray of drinks, was his loyal servant Yongnian. He waited patiently for his master to finish his drink before offering him another.

Just as Han Cai was about to reach for his drink, a chubby hand appeared out of nowhere and picked it up. It was none other than Han Dai, Han Cai\'s merchant father. He grinned mischievously and took a sip of the drink, enjoying the cool, refreshing taste.

Han Dai, the portly merchant with a love of the finer things in life, spoke, " Han Cai, Why not teleport other members too? Why to make them travel all the way? The journey to here is difficult, you know?" he exclaimed, a wide grin spreading across his face. "I didn\'t expect that the ocean could be so beautiful !"

Han Cai smiled, though somewhat less enthusiastically than his father. This fat man was his laughing Buddha, but the man\'s constant chatter and insatiable appetite for good food and drink could be a little overwhelming at times. "I am not a carriage. I have brought most of the core members, haven\'t I? Whatever resources you need, this island has plenty; when the time is right, I will find a few more locations, so You don\'t have to stay forever on the island," he replied.

Han Dai plopped himself down on a nearby chair, his bulk causing it to creak and groan beneath him. "Yeah, but this many are not enough to maintain the whole island, and then we need supplies and everything," he said, waving his hand dismissively. "Anyway, I thought I\'d come and enjoy a little time in the sun and maybe catch up with my favorite son while I\'m at it!"

Han Cai rolled his eyes. "I\'m your only son, fat man."

Han Dai chuckled, taking a hearty sip of the Piña Colada that he had taken from Yongnian. "That\'s true, that\'s true. But you\'re still my favorite, you know."

Han Cai smiled, shaking his head. He couldn\'t help but feel some fondness for his father, despite his flaws.

Han Cai spoke: "This will be our future headquarters. So all those that I have not brought settle in the Jinyu Islands. Remember, only use the communication talisman for work. If you want to leave the island. The only way to leave is by asking me."

Han Dai asked, "What if you are busy and the island gets attacked?"

"It will not be attacked easily," Han Cai said. "I have found this island with a lot of effort. Do you know how much money I have spent on building the defense array on this island? The array could take an attack even from heaven immortal".

Han Dai was still unsatisfied," What if family members get bored?"

Han Cai answered, "I have brought cultivation materials, haven\'t I? Do you wish to die while I live forever?"

Han Dai laughed: "Of course not. I will be cultivating diligently. I was asking about other members."

Han Cai spoke: "If they want, I can take them back, but they will never be able to come back here the moment they leave. No one knows the location of this island except me. Enjoy the Sun and Sea for the time being. I will find a few more safe cities where our family can grow."

Han Dai asked, "What about other islands that you made our family members find out about with so much effort."

Han Cai answered, "That is none of your concern. Cultivate; don\'t just sleep pretending to cultivate. Even if I don\'t come, Yongnian will visit from time to time to watch over everything."

Their conversation continued for a long time. Han Dai kept pestering Han Cai with one question after another, which Han Cai answered patiently.
