Zhangsun Xun Yi and Leng Jin Yu walked into the Sect Master's study one after the other. Yuchi Bing Xia got up when he saw the Grandmaster and then broke into a happy smile when he saw his disciple. "Grandmaster Zhangsun. Yu Jin, are you also coming over to see your old Master again? I was really thinking you had all forgotten about me after moving in with a beauty."
Leng Jin Yu's lips twitched. He already knew what his Master thought about Jinde but hearing it like this after they had married … It did feel a little strange. Well, not that he could deny it. A person that dared to say that Jinde wasn't beautiful probably wouldn't have any sense of aesthetics. "It's all this disciple's fault." He cupped his fists and bowed.
Yuchi Bing Xia waved. "Well, you're young. I'm just happy that he hasn't driven you crazy yet."
Leng Jin Yu gave another wry smile. His Master really made it sound as if Jinde would try to eat him raw. Well, that fear probably wasn't without reason. After all, Jinde had done quite a lot to pull him into bed. Even though his Master hadn't been right with his assumptions, he had been onto something when he warned him back then.
Leng Jin Yu refused to answer Yuchi Bing Xia and Zhangsun Xun Yi cleared his throat to steer the conversation to serious matters.
"Actually, the reason I came here has to do with that person. You also know of the plan to restructure the sect. We've managed to convince several of the Elders so things are bound to change in the future. Many new people will come and live in the inner sect. It won't be safe for that person to stay in Yu Jin's house forever."
Leng Jin Yu glanced at the Grandmaster. That really was a dignified excuse. It seemed he didn't need to worry that things would go wrong at this stage.
Yuchi Bing Xia furrowed his brows. "That's true. Do you think it would be safe for him to return to the dimension at the foot of your peak?"
Zhangsun Xun Yi shook his head. "I'm afraid not. That is why I came here. I thought about it and I think that it would be for the best if we created a new dimension. In fact, that isn't bad either. We can bind it to your peak so that only you and one of your disciples would be able to enter." He glanced at Leng Jin Yu when he said so, making the Sect Master take a double look at his disciple.
Yuchi Bing Xia couldn't help but worry. It seemed these two were still as close as before. Would this really not have any negative effect on Yu Jin? Well, even though he didn't like it, he would have to accept it and just wait what the future would bring. Maybe things would turn out well and he was worrying too much.
He sighed. "I don't see any problem with creating a new dimension. If you think it would be a good idea to do so, then we should. Are you sure you can handle the creation? Will I be needed for that?"
The Grandmaster shook his head. "No, I'll be able to handle it on my own. The only other question is what to do with the other dimension. I don't know if you have any thoughts on that but I was thinking of using it for the disciples. We can make it a special privilege that will be given to both inner and outer sect disciples for achieving breakthroughs, winning competitions or finishing difficult missions."
Yuchi Bing Xia nodded. "The spiritual energy in there is denser than in the rest of the sect. It would surely be an incentive for the disciples to work hard."
"Indeed. So are you alright with this? It would be bound to your peak after all."
Yuchi Bing Xia nodded. "Sure, this will only benefit the sect."
"Then I'll go and take care of it. "Zhangsun Xun Yi nodded at the Sect Master as a farewell and walked toward the door but he stopped just a few steps shy of it and turned to glance at Leng Jin Yu. Finally, he faced Yuchi Bing Xia again. "Right, this kind of thing, it's something that doesn't happen too often. Since you've decided that you want Yu Jin to take over your position later on, it would be good if he could learn some new things. Why don't I take him along?"
Yuchi Bing Xia looked from Zhangsun Xun Yi to Yu Jin and smiled. "That's indeed a good idea. Then you go, Yu Jin. Take a good look. That's something you can learn a lot from. With a bit of luck, you might be able to advance again."
Leng Jin Yu nodded and cupped his fists. "Thank you, Master. Thank you, Grandmaster Zhangsun, for giving me this opportunity."
Zhangsun Xun Yi nodded and then stepped out of the door. Ah, he really felt that it wasn't easy to accept these kinds of words from this person. Sometimes it truly was better not to know too much. Unfortunately, it couldn't be changed anymore. He had already found out.
The two men walked to the back of the palace and Zhangsun Xun Yi stepped aside, letting Leng Jin Yu decide how to continue from here.
Leng Jin Yu didn't bother too much. He could already create the realm and since the array would be changed later on so that only those with the key would be able to enter it didn't matter where he bound the array. Even if it was in plain sight, it wouldn't make a difference.
In fact, having it in plain sight might be a good idea. If the demon king returned in the next few days to take another look, then he would be able to search through this whole realm to make sure that Jinde wasn't inside. That way, he wouldn't bother them anymore in the future. Well, at the very least, that was what he hoped for. Who knew if that kind of person would really play by the rules? Considering what Jinde had told him about the demon king so far … He couldn't be too sure about that.
Leng Jin Yu furrowed his brows but then took a deep breath to clear his head. Whatever. Soon, this wouldn't be a problem anymore. For now, he just had to create this realm and then wait for the God of War to come over with the array.
