If he were merely a Jiang Family son-in-law, he wouldn't be so widely known for thousands of miles.

The most crucial aspect is that before, it was rumored he was a disciple of one of the Three Great Sects, the Red Cloud Sect!

Anything related to the Three Great Sects is no small matter in the Northern Territory, watched by countless eyes.

Moreover, there have been recent rumors.

The Sect Leader of the Red Cloud Sect, the magnificent Red Cloud Fairy, recently went to the Black Tide Forbidden Land and gained an unexpected opportunity!

Her strength has advanced once again.

Among the Three Great Sects, the Red Cloud Sect ranks second, with the Cyan Thunder Sect in third place.

Before the Red Cloud Fairy assumed the position of Sect Leader, the Red Cloud Sect had been at the bottom for a century.

With the guidance of this generation's Sect Leader, many believe the Red Cloud Fairy could even lead the Red Cloud Sect to claim... the peak of the Northern Realm!

The position at the peak of the Northern Realm has not changed for nearly ten thousand years.

Thinking of this, Wu Jun suddenly felt relieved.

Initially, he thought it was some newly emerged formidable rival on his pursuit of Chen Lingxiang.

Turns out, he is the Jiang Family's son-in-law... so it's no problem.

Thinking about the Jiang Family, Wu Jun recalled a rumor; it is said that Jiang Qingge from the Jiang Family has always been hailed as the first Fairy of Cloud Leaf City.

Even claiming... her beauty overshadows a radius of three thousand miles!

Within a radius of three thousand miles, there's no woman who can surpass her!

Wu Jun involuntarily glanced at Chen Lingxiang.

In Wu Jun's eyes, aside from Chen Lingxiang's extraordinary talent, her beauty was unrivaled in Luohua City, an absolute beauty.

Even the Spiritual and Intelligent Maiden from earlier, although perhaps not fully developed yet, would only be a match for Chen Lingxiang.

To find a woman more beautiful than Chen Lingxiang, Wu Jun couldn't imagine what she would be like.

...

Red Cloud Sect.

The entire sect is built around Red Cloud Mountain, consisting of five main peaks, with the central one being the Sect Leader Peak.

Lately, the Red Cloud Sect has grown increasingly powerful.

Inside the main hall of the sect's peak, after listening to a Sect Steward report recent events in the Northern Territory, the Red Cloud Fairy spoke calmly.

"Alright, you may leave now."

"Yes, Sect Leader." The Sect Steward bowed and left the main hall.

In the hall, the aroma of incense lingered as the Red Cloud Fairy reclined lazily in a chair, her eyes closed in thought.

Among the report, many were minor issues, none of which piqued the Red Cloud Fairy's interest.

What intrigued her slightly was the recent incident where the Jiang Family Escort Agency was robbed.

"An Innate Fourth Layer attempted a robbery and failed? When did an Innate Realm unknown to me appear in the Northern Territory?"

The Innate Fourth Layer, though not considered by the Red Cloud Fairy.

In the vast Northern Territory, such a person could easily dominate a city.

The fact that such a figure failed in a robbery sparked her mild interest.

It is rumored that she obtained some opportunities at the Black Tide Forbidden Land, leading to yet another breakthrough.

Only the Red Cloud Fairy knew that although she indeed went to the Black Tide Forbidden Land.

And did gain some opportunities.

What actually facilitated her enhancement was the gift of a century-old Flame Sun Stone sent by the Jiang Family to secure a marriage alliance through an Inner Sect Disciple.

The Flame Sun Stone is an excellent aid for those practicing fire attribute cultivation techniques.

A hundred years, or even a thousand, will double its effects!

What the Jiang Family didn't know was that inside this century-old Flame Sun Stone was a drop of Essence of the Flame Sun!

If not for the Essence of the Flame Sun, would a declining family with an ancestor gravely injured dare to exploit the Red Cloud Sect's reputation?

"One Flame Sun Stone to ensure the Jiang Family, where Old Man Jiang was injured, temporary peace is decent enough."

The fact that she knew the confidential matter of the Jiang Family Ancestor's injury was surprising!

As for why a Servant Disciple was quietly promoted to Inner Sect Disciple and sent away...

Under the moonlit night, the handsome young man in servant attire, the Red Cloud Fairy vaguely remembered his appearance.

The Red Cloud Fairy lazily pondered, perhaps... it was because Lu Ye caught her eye?

A servant disciple with average aptitude staying in the sect.

After a few years, the best outcome might be to pass the assessment and become an Outer Disciple.

Most could not cultivate to meet the Outer Disciple assessment standards, eventually wasting their lives away, descending the mountain in disappointment.

Or they would remain on the Miscellaneous Peak until old age, receiving new servants to replace them.

By sending him away for marriage, the conditions would certainly be more comfortable than the barren Miscellaneous Peak.

Of course, the only thing lost in a marriage was dignity.

Yet, the Red Cloud Fairy did not believe that a mere servant disciple required such cheap dignity?

Can it be eaten, or spent like silver?

At this point, the Red Cloud Fairy recalled, during the marriage banquet, that reckless Inner Sect Disciple...

If he hadn't blurted out and exposed the servant disciple's identity, perhaps the young man would be living well now.

After all, marrying as an Inner Sect Disciple or as a servant are two different things, with servant disciples losing more dignity.

But, still, she thought.

The Red Cloud Fairy didn't think the amount of dignity mattered for the servant named Lu Ye at the time.

A small person's dignity, after all... is not valuable.

Seeing he was pleasing to the eye, she gave him a new life, and the lost dignity was not worth mentioning.

Previously, busy with closed cultivation to break through realms, she couldn't care less about such trivial matters.

Today, the Red Cloud Fairy felt whimsically inclined.

After pondering for a moment, she clapped her hands slightly, and a cold-faced woman emerged from the shadows of the hall.

"Pass on the order for that..." The Red Cloud Fairy thought for a moment before recalling the name of the Inner Sect Disciple responsible for the incident.

"Let Wu De go to the Black Stone Wilderness to open up mines," the Red Cloud Fairy said indifferently, knowing that for some words, there must be a certain price to pay.

"Yes!" The cold-faced woman didn't say a word more and immediately left after receiving the order.

...

At the Inner Sect Peak, where the Inner Sect Disciples reside.

Wu De was currently chatting and laughing with a junior sister from the Outer Disciples.

Remembering the words he blurted out on the wedding day after drinking too much, Wu De was fearful when he returned sober to the sect.

After all, this was someone sent out by the Sect Leader!

The Red Cloud Fairy had led the sect for many years, her authority unquestionable, and anyone daring to disobey her never had a good end.

Back at the sect, Wu De was on edge, constantly prepared for the sect's judgment.

To Wu De's surprise, the sect seemed completely unconcerned about this matter.

Some time had passed, and Wu De had fully regained his confidence.

He was, after all, an Inner Sect Disciple, valued by the sect!

And Lu Ye, who was sent away for marriage, was merely a servant!

The sect wouldn't punish a promising Inner Disciple over a servant, would it?

"Junior Sister Liu Yun, be good, let Brother take a look..."

Just then, a figure of the Innate First Layer landed in front of Wu De, who was about to act inappropriately, with a stern face.
