The meeting with the envoy delegation from Shenluo Celestial Palace went just as Ling Changqing had expected.
Yun Qingxue was the true leader of this delegation; she held indisputable authority, even over Yaozhou's foremost Female Cultivation Sect. Thus, once she spoke for her Sect, the matter was considered perfectly resolved.
From the Ling Family's standpoint, they already had Xuannü Palace and the Ye Family from the Qingming Continent, plus the Celestial Derivation Pavilion, as strategic allies. Adding Shenluo Celestial Palace from Yaozhou was no big deal.
Of course, these new Female Cultivators would all have to undergo the strictest vetting process by Ling Changqing—or more accurately, by the Gong Ling of the Era Star Palace—and would only be allowed to stay after being cleared.
Yun Qingxue herself did not object. She had no desire to see the hard-won opportunity to achieve her Dao get snatched away by hostile forces.
