Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1252 - 544: Arrival at the East Sea

His eyes were full of eagerness, desperate to start preparations immediately.

It’s because Li Yunjing’s status is already a presence that Elder Wu Cheng can only look up to.

"I appreciate your kindness."

Li Yunjing waved his hand, his tone filled with incontrovertible determination: "But our time to meet friends is tight, the wedding date is near, and it’s really not suitable to delay."

He took up the spirit tea and sipped it lightly, continuing, "Moreover, the situation in East Sea is tense, and I have no mind for socializing."

"I didn’t consider things thoroughly!"

Elder Wu Cheng showed regret but could not insist, so he nodded repeatedly: "Then where does the Vice Sect Leader plan to settle? The Island Master’s residence has prepared the best room for you, quiet and elegant, perfect for resting."

"No need for trouble."

Li Yunjing set down the teacup and stood, gazing out at the rolling sea clouds. "I have some old acquaintances at the ’Star Moon Trading Company’ and it’s just right to catch up there. That’s my industry, convenient for acting."

"Ah, that’s how it is!"

Elder Wu Cheng paused, then suddenly understood: "Alright, I will immediately send someone to notify the market there, ensure everything is prepared for your reception."

He quickly instructed the disciples at his side, then turned to remind, "If the Vice Sect Leader needs anything, just speak, ’Shenxiao Island’ will certainly handle it to the best of our ability!"

"Many thanks!"

Although he knew Elder Wu Cheng was deliberately trying to please him, Li Yunjing still nodded in thanks, and then under the respectful escort of the elders and stewards, left the Island Master’s residence.

As soon as Li Yunjing stepped out the door, a sea breeze, carrying a salty and fishy scent, rushed toward him. In the distance on the sea, the glow of magical combat still flickered on and off.

Other than "Shenxiao Island," the surrounding sea region was no longer safe.

And "Shenxiao Island" was an unexpected gain for the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," with very few cultivators stationed, its defense capabilities were extremely weak. Elder Wu Cheng didn’t want to deal with outside matters, focusing solely on defending the island.

Such actions cannot be considered wrong!

This is a choice made after weighing abilities.

Just this manifestation of weakness doesn’t fit Li Yunjing’s nature.

He is accustomed to the sect’s powerful demeanor, now the timid action always made Li Yunjing feel very uncomfortable.

Watching the sea region, his gaze deepened, secretly calculating how to respond to the threat from the "Celestial Net Dao Sect."

In East Sea, relying solely on "Shenxiao Dao Sect" is definitely not enough!

"Feiyun Sect," "Holy Sound Sect," "Lake Heart Island," those first-rate forces seem like the best allies, able to unite to resist the attack of the "Celestial Net Dao Sect!"

After all, the previously established "East Sea Alliance" has yet to dissolve!

And most importantly, East Sea is the territory of these first-rate sects, where their interests are greatest.

On the other hand, considering "Shenxiao Island," if the situation turns unfavorable, it can be entirely abandoned, with the majority retreating back to the Great Ming Dynasty.

Upon entering the land of the Great Ming, reaching "Yingtian Prefecture," relying on many arrays arranged by "Shenxiao Temple," summoning various sects of the "Great Ming Cultivation Realm," "Shenxiao Dao Sect" truly doesn’t fear the "Celestial Net Dao Sect!"

With plans brewing in his mind, Li Yunjing did not hurry to fly away, but strolled slowly, appreciating the island’s scenery, gradually heading towards the market.

"Star Moon Trading Company No.3 Store" quickly received the news, Shi Huilan was promoted to shopkeeper, personally leading the staff to greet and await the arrival of the owner at the door.

As for the market manager Jiang Feilong, he also led his team at the market entrance, lined up in welcome.

An hour later, as everyone waited impatiently, they finally saw Li Yunjing approaching from afar.

"Boss! No, Vice Sect Leader! You finally came!"

Shi Huilan, face flushed with excitement, said: "The best courtyard has been prepared long ago, and the spiritual spring bath inside has been refreshed three times, even the bed is covered with thousand-year silkworm quilts!"

"Thank you for the effort."

Seeing Shi Huilan, who is already at Foundation Establishment, Li Yunjing slightly nodded: "It’s been hard on you these years. By the way, where are Xing’Er and Yue’Er?"

"Reporting to the Vice Sect Leader! Lady Xing and Lady Yue have gone to ’Feiyun Island’ and ’Holy Sound Island’ for collecting debts!"

Shi Huilan reported the whereabouts of the two women.

"Oh!"

Li Yunjing nodded, keeping a calm face, but secretly worrying in his heart, "Now, with East Sea unstable, Xing’Er and Yue’Er are going so far just for some spirit stones!"

His heart was filled with some anxiety and some anger.

Money is merely an external possession, he really didn’t want Xing’Er and Yue’Er to take risks.

"By the way! The two ladies went along with Liao Wanqing and Elder Liao, protected by people from ’Holy Sound Sect’!"

Seemingly sensing Li Yunjing’s displeasure, Shi Huilan added another explanation.

"Oh? Liao Wanqing broke through to Golden Core Realm?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing’s concern diminished slightly, raised his eyebrows, and asked about the situation of the woman from a fleeting affair.

"Yes! Elder Liao Wanqing broke through cultivation not long ago, Elder Wen Bin from ’Feiyun Sect’ also broke through to Golden Core Realm."

Shi Huilan, knowing that these two were Li Yunjing’s "friends," quickly relayed their situations.

"Very good!"

Li Yunjing nodded, completely reassured.

Liao Wanqing and Wen Bin are not ordinary Golden Core Realm cultivators!

Back then, when they were at Ninth Layer of Foundation Establishment Realm, they could already challenge Golden Core Realm First Heaven cultivators!

Now, after breaking through their cultivation, it’s without doubt, they must be even more formidable!

With his friends’ protection, there is nothing to be worried about for Xing’Er and Yue’Er.

"Vice Sect Leader Li, busy with endless tasks yet still concerned for ’Shenxiao Island,’ I am ashamed!"

Seeing Li Yunjing had finished his conversation with Shi Huilan, Jiang Feilong stepped forward half a step, causing his robe’s hem to stir the fragments of green stone tiles on the ground, presenting a sandalwood box with both hands: "These are three five-thousand-year blood corals recently found from South Sea, ideal for refining healing holy medicine, please accept them."
