There were some things that could not be resolved just by giving face. Although Cheng Aofang said that she was fine on the surface, one could imagine the depression in her heart. Yue Tianbo also explained to her that this was the Realm Beyond Heaven's will. She was the only one in the Fifth Earthly Branch who occupied two palaces' territories, and the Wood Traversing Palace had even interfered.
Cheng Aofang had no choice but to let go of the Sun Traversing Palace. She was feeling extremely frustrated, so she pulled Miao Yi over with one hand. In the end, she ended up helping Miao Yi get married.
Miao Yi had no choice but to bring the Lady Boss along with him to apologize. He couldn't refuse the Realm Beyond Heaven's arrangements anyway. After all, Mu Fanjun was his weak spot.
After the couple returned from the Wood Traversing Palace, they summoned Yang Qing to see them.
The two of them sat side by side in the main hall. Yang Qing came to pay his respects. After exchanging a few pleasantries, Miao Yi returned to the main topic at hand, "Yang Qing. I have already been promoted to the position of Traversing Sun Palace Master. I will be heading there soon. Are you willing to come with me?"
"…" Yang Qing was instantly dumbfounded. In his heart, he screamed wildly. What kind of world was this? Did this lunatic get promoted again? How could he be promoted after causing such a big trouble? How could he let others live?
After giving it some thought, Yang Qing cupped his fists and said, "Your humble servant's abilities are limited, and I'm lazy by nature. I don't want to run around and would like to stay in the Wood Traversing Palace. If you can put in a few good words for me and allow me to retain my position as a Hall Master, I'll be eternally grateful."
He didn't want the position of Chief Steward of two Halls anymore. Anyway, he would only get the benefits of one Hall. Most importantly, he truly didn't want to follow Miao Yi any longer. He was already afraid of Miao Yi. This Lord was the greatest danger to him. Following him would only mean that he would be accompanied by danger. Now that the situation had finally stabilized, if he didn't get out of this mess in time, who knew what else would happen next? If he could just become a Hall Master here, he would be more than satisfied.
The Lady Boss, who was sitting next to him, slowly sipped on her tea without saying a word. She could tell that Yang Qing didn't want to follow Miao Yi anymore. She wanted to see how Miao Yi would handle this.
Ever since she arrived, she had gradually gotten to know the situation around Miao Yi. She had also come into contact with Yang Qing a few times. He knew that Yang Qing was an intelligent person, and he also thought that Miao Yi had made the right decision in poaching Yang Qing from South Edict Manor. Keeping such a talent by his side would be of great use, even though his loyalty wasn't as high as Yan Xiu and the others. However, even a hundred Yan Xius couldn't compare to him in terms of ability. Yan Xiu was able to control and manage big situations. Keeping Yan Xiu by his side would save him a lot of energy, and he would be able to cultivate in peace.
But from the looks of it now, Miao Yi hadn't put him to good use. She didn't want to follow Miao Yi anymore. She wanted to see how Miao Yi would handle this.
Miao Yi chuckled. "You don't have to be so humble, Steward Yang. How about this? You come with me to the Sun Traversing Palace and continue to serve as the Sun Traversing Palace's Chief Steward. I'll give you two Halls' harvests, and I'll directly promote Qin Weiwei to Hall Master. What do you think? "
Yang Qing was speechless. It would be a lie to say that he was not tempted. He was only here to reap the benefits of one hall. If they went to the Sun Palace, they would be able to get two Halls, and their daughter would be able to become a Hall Master. This meant that the Sun Palace would have three Halls to give to the father and daughter. One had to know that Qin Weiwei's current cultivation was only at the Blue Lotus realm. If she were to make an exception and be promoted to Hall Master, how many years of hard work would she be spared? Even if it wasn't for himself, he would still be tempted for his daughter.
But he was really in a dilemma. He had no choice but to weigh the pros and cons. After carefully weighing the pros and cons, he pleaded, "Milord, can you give me a day to think about it?"
Miao Yi waved his hand. He immediately made the decision. "Such a good thing is something that others can only dream of. There's nothing to think about. Cheng Aofang has already given me the documents to release you. I'll give you a few days to prepare. Ten days later, you'll follow me to the Sun Traversing Palace to take up your post. It's decided. "
"..." Yang Qing was speechless. 'You transferred me away without my consent. What's there to discuss with me?!'
After Yang Qing excused himself, Miao Yi slammed his hand on the tea table. He said in a slightly displeased tone, "This Yang Qing. It's hard to treat him as a true confidant. He always has his own plans. I've given him benefits, but he still doesn't know what's good for him. "
The Lady Boss didn't expect Miao Yi to be so forceful. He resolved the matter by forcefully saying, 'You have to follow me even if you don't want to.' She put down the teacup in her hand and sighed. She advised, "Niu Er, think about it. There's no need to be angry over something like this. This is human nature. The smarter a person is, the more they think. It's impossible for this kind of person to be foolishly loyal like Yan Xiu. It all depends on how you control him. You can think about it from another perspective. With his ability, he doesn't necessarily have to follow you to survive. As long as his luck isn't too bad, this kind of person will eventually succeed. So you're the one seeking talent, not the other way around. What's there to be angry about? "
Hearing her words, Miao Yi's mood eased slightly.
"Don't think about it. Go cultivate." The Lady Boss reminded. She stood up and ordered, "Xue 'Er, stay here and watch over Milord's cultivation. Don't let him wander around. Qian 'Er, come with me to Donglin Manor. "
Miao Yi was stunned. "What are you going to Donglin Manor for?"
The Lady Boss rolled her eyes at him and transmitted her voice, "I'm going to see Qin Weiwei. As long as I can hold Qin Weiwei firmly in my hands, Yang Qing won't be able to escape. He won't be able to escape from our palms. "
Miao Yi broke out in a cold sweat and reminded, "Qin Weiwei and I have known each other for many years. She's considered my friend. Don't mess around."
"Got it!" The Lady Boss turned around and left with Qian 'Er.
Miao Yi shouted, "Bring two more people with you."
"Got it. I'll bring a carpenter and a stonemason." The Lady Boss waved her hand with her back facing him.
Soon, a bed of fragrant concubines flew out from the palace with Qian 'Er by her side. Together, they soared into the sky.
As soon as the Lady Boss left, Miao Yi suddenly felt comfortable all over. He waved his hand and said, "Xue 'Er, let's go take a look at Yao Ruoxian's side. Inform them to prepare to move."
He had no choice. Right now, he was like a wild horse that had just been put on a leash. He wasn't used to the Lady Boss's restrictions yet, so he subconsciously wanted to struggle and resist. This was the so-called wild nature that was hard to tame.
Normally, he would cultivate when he had nothing to do, but right now, he always wanted to be free.
Xue 'Er immediately stopped him, "Milord, that won't do. If Madam finds out later, we'll all be in trouble."
Miao Yi immediately looked her up and down, "Xue 'Er, are you serious? Whose side are you on? "
Xue 'Er said, "Milord, Madam had a long talk with me and Big Sister. What Madam said was right. Everything she did was for your own good. Right now, the most important thing for you to do is to seize the time and raise your cultivation."
Miao Yi put his hands behind his back and said, "You've been bought over by her so quickly? I insist on going out for a stroll now. Don't tell me you dare stop me? "
Xue 'Er immediately panicked, "Milord, I don't dare to stop you. But if Madam finds out later, it'll be troublesome. Madam will really kneel outside the palace gates."
"She's already gone. You won't be able to see her. What are you afraid of? Get out of my way! Don't block my way! "Miao Yi immediately pushed her aside, and walked out with his hands behind his back.
Xue 'Er chased after him and shouted, "But the guards in the palace are all Madam's subordinates. Even if I don't say anything, Madam will find out later."
Miao Yi's body froze. His foot, which was about to cross the threshold, was suspended in mid-air. How could he have forgotten about this? The guards in the palace were all from the original tavern. They were all the Lady Boss's trusted aides. It could be said that every move in the palace was under the Lady Boss's control.
His expression twitched violently. What the hell was this? He didn't even have his freedom in his own territory. Miao Yi turned around with a dark expression and sneered at Xue 'Er, "Do you really think I'm afraid of Madam? I just don't want to lower myself to her level. I don't want others to laugh at me! "With that said, he flicked his sleeves and returned to his silent quarters for cultivation.
Sun Traversing Palace. The original Sun Traversing Palace had been destroyed during the great war all those years ago. Because Cheng Aofang was in charge of the Wood Traversing Palace, the Sun Traversing Palace had never been rebuilt. There was no need for it to exist.
After Miao Yi brought his men over to take over, his first priority was to rebuild the palace. He didn't really care, but Jade Capital Peak was getting anxious.
The wedding was just around the corner, and the Realm Beyond Heaven wanted to personally organize it. Celestial Sage Mu Fanjun said that she wanted the wedding to be grand and well done. She even revealed that she would be coming personally. Jade Capital Peak couldn't afford to be careless. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to answer to the Realm Beyond Heaven.
They quickly selected the most beautiful and scenic location within the Sun Traversing Palace's territory, and gathered a hundred thousand laborers. Ten thousand skilled craftsmen were also mobilized. The most time-consuming tasks, such as transporting large pieces of stone and wood, were handed over to five thousand cultivators. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to make it in time. Among these five thousand cultivators were twenty Red Lotus cultivators from the various palaces of the Fifth Earthly Branch. All of them were used as laborers. They had to cut open mountains, excavate rocks, carry heavy loads, and even fly around to deliver items.
Since Celestial Sage Mu Fanjun might be coming personally, Yue Tianbo placed great importance on this matter. He personally came to inspect the palace a few times and gave his subordinates a strict order. The materials used to construct the Sun Traversing Palace had to be of the highest quality, and the construction had to be completed three days before Miao Yi's wedding. Anyone who dared to delay would be executed!
Under Lord Messenger Yue's command, the entire Fifth Earthly Branch was instantly thrown into chaos. All sorts of materials were continuously being gathered from all over the place, and the clanking of bells rang out day and night as the construction progressed at a rapid pace.
Miao Yi wasn't in a hurry, and he couldn't be bothered to participate either. He was already sick of Mu Fanjun's arrangements, so he didn't want to cooperate at all. He also had an excuse for not participating. He had just taken over the Sun Traversing Palace, so he had to familiarize himself with it and reorganize it. He didn't have the time to build some palace. He was only afraid that someone would tamper with his residence in the future, so he sent Yan Xiu and Yang Zhaoqing to supervise the construction.
With this ruckus, the entire Fifth Earthly Branch knew about it. Who knew how many people were cursing Miao Yi behind his back, and how many people were making trouble for his wedding? However, he still had to cooperate. Otherwise, Yue Tianbo's execution would be no laughing matter.
Since the ruckus in the Fifth Earthly Branch was known by everyone, it didn't take long for all the cultivators in the world to know that Celestial Sage Mu Fanjun had decreed a marriage for Miao Yi and the Lady Boss. Many people were puzzled by this. They couldn't understand what Mu Fanjun was trying to do. Initially, everyone thought that Miao Yi was going to suffer. But in the end, not only was he promoted, he even received the honor of having the Realm Beyond Heaven personally organize his wedding. This was truly unexpected.
Yang Qing was in charge of reorganizing the Sun Traversing Palace. Miao Yi's main task was still to be forced to cultivate by the Lady Boss.
Over at Flowing Clouds Dune Sea, Cheng Yaowei's family had completely broken away from the Hive Gang. Those who were willing to follow him hurriedly followed him, and everyone was given official status. As for those who weren't willing to come, Cheng Yaowei handed the Hive Gang over to them and let them do as they saw fit.
