Immortal Only Accepts Female Disciples

“What a stupid plan!” A voice burst out, filled with the utmost frustration.

Several giggles came in response.

“I’m serious!” Xu Lanyi said, her voice filled with annoyance.

The ice sisters were by themselves in a rather simple room. Su Xue and Su Yue were the culprits of the giggles but were quieted by a withering glare from Xu Lanyi. They sat around tables set up in an arc with Li Yuechan at the center. Atop the tables were piles of papers of what looked suspiciously like advertisement posters, each with a portrait of Long Yifei. More of the same were stacked around the room. A countless number of them had been printed, to ensure maximum coverage over a metropolis that spanned vast lands.

Indeed, they had been dragged into the plan to Long Yifei from the clutches of the evil Abbotess Liang.

Xu Lanyi wasn’t happy but she wasn’t the only one. They had been drafted by Chen Wentian into the effort, pulling them away from their Golden Feather Challenge. He had begged and pleaded and they had not put up any objections, but it didn’t mean they were happy about it. As disciples, they also wished to save their fellow sisters. But as disciples, they were naturally disappointed that their own progress was being stunted in the process.

Chen Wentian had promised them over and over again that he would pay them back. They could only trust him as they had always done.

“It’s not going to work. Who’s going to believe him? With that registration fee, people will think it's just a stupid money grab.” Xu Lanyi complained again.

“The spiritual signature should assuage doubts.” Song Wushuang said evenly.

Xu Lanyi clicked her tongue but had no retort. Spiritual signatures were similar to spiritual oaths but also different. An oath was a binding between an individual’s soul and the heavens. If it was broken, the soul would receive a backlash from the heavens, something that was built into the laws of the world.

A signature was merely a fragment of one’s spiritual energy put onto paper. It was worth nothing to the heavenly laws but worth something to the laws of the human world and to the Immortal Association. A spiritual signature was a person’s honor. To many in the cultivation world, honor and reputation were just as important as power and influence.

So far, Chen Wentian’s honor was still worth something…

“Plus, I think mass hysteria will assuage the doubters very soon.” Song Wushuang said. “The flyers are not his only method of drumming up excitement. He told me he has a few tricks up his sleeves.”

“Wait… he told you and not me? Xue’er, Yue’er, what about you?” Xu Lanyi asked.

The twins shook their heads.

Song Wushuang smirked and squeezed her ample breasts together so that the cleavage visible deepened. “Don’t blame me for having better assets.”

“You…”

“Alright, alright, come on.” Li Yuechan said, “The entire sect has been mobilized for this. The Zhou Clan has started a huge operation in the capital at great cost. Sister Lin’s branch sect has also moved some of their operations here to support us. We’re all in it to save Sister Long. If it had been any of us, master would have done the same. He is that kind of man.”

She sighed and then called out an order to the personnel waiting outside. An elder of the Zhou Clan rushed in with a stack of papers but these were smaller and different from the posters.

“Mistress, here is the first batch!” The man said and dropped it off on Li Yuechan’s desk.

“Thank you, these are more of the signed posters, please take them and distribute them based on the plan. Also, make sure to send the acknowledgement letters along with instructions for the event.”

“Of course, mistress. It will be done!”

The Zhou Clan elder called out and a bunch of aides rushed in and carried away the stacks littered around the room.

“More unsigned posters are ready.” He said afterward.

“Send them in.” Li Yuechan nodded.

“Yes!”

Freshly printed posters were brought in for the ice sisters to stamp with their master’s signature. Each was given a specially crafted stamp for this task.

The Zhou Clan people left soon after and the four sisters all looked expectantly at Li Yuechan. She did not keep them waiting and started reading the first page which contained some data.

“Lanyi, here are the results you wanted. Thirty-four people registered after just the first day. And this is still just with minimal coverage.” She looked down and smirked, “There’s even one woman among them.”

Xu Lanyi spluttered, blushing, “A woman… really… how does that even work.”

This earned her several giggles from the rest.

“If one is motivated enough, anything is possible.”

“Nonsense!”

“Anyways,” Li Yuechan continued, “The Zhou Clan has handled the registration process and taken their money. They will be delivering it to us soon. Now, let's take a break from stamping and look at these names and their provided profiles.”

She read through each one with the others listening in with interest. It was a king of perverse fascination at what kind of men were interested in their fellow disciple.

The first few were unremarkable. They were the core disciples of several immortal sects, those with only Spirit Lord masters, not Spirit Kings. Disciples in such positions could afford the registration fee simply with their saved-up allowance. Although it was a huge expense for them, they all felt it was a necessary risk. They were confident in their own talent and cultivation arts and hoped that Long Yifei would be attracted to those aspects.

Another group soon caught their eyes. They were scions of clans that had vast business empires throughout the metropolis. Their vast wealth far exceeded immortal sects even if their relative strength was weaker. These people could throw away a hundred thousand taels of gold in one evening. They also recognized a name among them, Nanjiang Siyuan.

“These all came in at the same location, almost ten of them at the same time.” Li Yuechan commented.

“Men…” Xu Lanyi muttered.

“Men…” The others agreed.

“If master was in a similar position in the past, in the Spirit Initiate Realm, do you think he would have also signed up?” Su Yue asked.

“If he could afford it, absolutely!” Xu Lanyi declared.

The sisters giggled. The atmosphere in the room evened out. They had been worried the plan wouldn’t work but it seemed now that it was.

The small fry were already circling the bait, eager to take a bite. But they weren’t the goal, the main goal at least. The thing still missing was the big fish, ones that could actually help them when the time came. They still had yet to be caught.
