As the Lord of the Wuwei Tower Immortal Sect, Zhuo Lanqing had been racking her brains lately over how to expand her sect’s territory.
In theory, expansion was simple: find a patch of land and fuse it with one’s sect using immortal techniques. After all, the Heavenly Realm was littered with abandoned sect ruins—any one would do, and with enough speed, it could be completed in half a day.
But imagination and reality were two things. If it was one’s own sect, one couldn’t just grab the first ruin one saw. In choosing new land, one had to consider feng shui, compatibility, the density of immortal aura—countless factors to weigh. It was no easy task.
What made it worse was that the Heavenly Realm’s immortal aura had fully restored; all living immortals had awakened, breathing new life into the realm. The better ruins were already claimed as personal dojos by other immortals, shrinking Zhuo Lanqing’s options further.
Was she truly forced to settle for any old site to merge with Wuwei Tower? She couldn’t bring herself to compromise! Again she scratched her head in desperation.
Just then a communication stone rang. It was Shangguan Jiujiu.
“Lanqing, hurry over! I’ve discovered a sect ruin about three thousand li east of Wuwei Tower. It looks perfect—let’s claim it!”
Zhuo Lanqing’s eyes lit up. Everyone knew Shangguan Jiujiu favored Ye Yu—and Zhuo Lanqing did too—so they shared the same taste. If Jiujiu said it was good, it must be. Without hesitation, Zhuo Lanqing shot eastward at top speed.
Soon they reunited and began scrutinizing the ruin beneath them. Though a {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} bit dilapidated, its immortal aura was rich, several formations still functioned, and, most importantly, the terrain matched Wuwei Tower’s periphery perfectly. The merge would be effortless. A bright turn of fortune!
Zhuo Lanqing and Shangguan Jiujiu agreed at once to claim it—but before they could act, a robed immortal in blue barred their path.
“What are you doing here?” he demanded.
Zhuo Lanqing and Shangguan Jiujiu exchanged puzzled glances. “We are immortals of Wuwei Tower, here to claim this ruin to expand our sect. Who are you, fellow immortal?”
