BTTH I can strengthen all things

Princess Yao Yu's proactive greeting to Yun Tianming caught the attention of others present.

"Hmph! This brat seems to be quite popular with the ladies!"

Mu Zhan raised an eyebrow, his tone carrying a hint of sarcasm.

Nalan Yanran's eyes flickered, seeming to suspect whether Yun Tianming deliberately posed as a simpleton earlier, trying to deceive her.

Ya Fei wore a pensive expression, thinking to herself: So, it is said that the little princess of the royal family, Yao Yu, has a talent for becoming an Alchemist, with naturally powerful soul strength. She probably sensed something.

"Yu'er, this child..."

Yao Ye's cold and elegant gaze flashed with a hint of curiosity. She understood her sister's personality well and knew she wouldn't show interest in a stranger without reason.

"I am Yun Tianming, just a common outer disciple of the Misty Cloud Sect."

Yun Tianming calmly withdrew his soul power. While he sensed the other party, he also slightly attracted their attention. However, his soul power surpassed that of Yao Yu, so the other party should not be able to determine it.

"Hmm~ I always feel like you're tricking me!"

Yao Yu pouted, hands on her hips, glaring at him.

Although she wasn't sure about Yun Tianming's soul power, her intuition told her that he was not an ordinary person.

Yao Yu's playful eyes turned, and she suddenly thought of something, smiling mischievously, "Yun Tianming, right? Since you are just an outer disciple of the Misty Cloud Sect, why not come and be a personal guard for this princess? It has great prospects, doesn't it?"

This woman's thinking is really eccentric.

Yun Tianming's heart moved; he was indeed considering Princess Yao Yu's invitation. Being the personal guard of a royal princess did have a higher status compared to being an outer disciple of the Misty Cloud Sect.

Ya Fei thought to herself: Princess Yao Yu has a good eye for people.

"Tsk!"

Mu Zhan was even more displeased. He couldn't understand what was so good about this young man. Not only could he get close to Ya Fei, but he also gained the favor of the royal princess.

"Ahem! Princess Yao Yu, isn't it inappropriate to poach disciples from Misty Cloud Sect within Misty Cloud Sect?" Nalan Yanran couldn't help but interject.

"What's wrong with that? For a mere outer disciple, I think Misty Cloud Sect won't mind, right?" Yao Yu playfully blinked at Yun Tianming.

"Yue'er, don't mess around," Yao Ye interrupted her. As the eldest princess of the royal family, she, being a few years older, had a deeper understanding of the delicate relationship between the royal family and Misty Cloud Sect. Especially in the subtle struggles between the two sides, the royal family did not have the upper hand. 

Misty Cloud Sect was, in fact, a powerful force within the Jia Ma Empire. A small action might convey the wrong message. An outer disciple might not be important, but if Misty Cloud Sect misconstrues it as a provocation from the royal family, it could lead to greater conflicts.

"Alright, sister."

Yao Yu stuck out her tongue, but there wasn't much regret on her face. It seemed inviting Yun Tianming was just a spontaneous act.

"Oh~ it seems I missed a good opportunity," Yun Tianming feigned a disappointed look. However, he didn't think much of it. From his perspective, Misty Cloud Sect was evidently stronger in influence than the royal family. Staying in Misty Cloud Sect would provide him with greater cultivation resources. Moreover, judging from Yao Yu's attitude, she invited him out of playfulness rather than genuine belief in his potential, so there was nothing to regret.

Various forces from the Imperial Capital, after a brief exchange, entered Misty Cloud Sect.

"senior brother Tianming, Yanran will go ahead to attend the sect meeting," Nalan Yanran politely said, not waiting for his response before turning to leave.

"Tianming younger brother, sister has high hopes for you~" Ya Fei affectionately patted his shoulder, revealing genuine goodwill on her face. She might not have the cultivation talent of Nalan Yanran or the soul power of Princess Yao Yu, but she had confidence in her ability to judge people.

"Thank you, Sister Ya Fei."

Feeling the goodwill from the other party, Yun Tianming didn't want to continue with any deception and gave a positive response.

"Hmph!"

Mu Zhan coldly snorted, giving him a stern warning look before leaving with the others.

Guests from various factions gathered at Misty Cloud Sect, and the grand sect meeting officially began.

Yun Tianming followed the numerous outer disciples to the outermost periphery of the sect's formation.

"Look! That's the legendary Sect Master!"

"So beautiful! Is she a fairy?"

"Shut up! Mortals must not gaze directly at the Sect Master!"

Not only the outer disciples but even the formally dressed disciples in moon-white robes couldn't help but cast infinite adoration toward the extraordinarily beautiful woman seated at the top. She was one of the top ten powerhouses in the Jia Ma Empire and the youngest Dou Emperor among them!

Ah, it's really a bunch of nameless extras, losing their minds at the sight of a beauty, huh?

Yun Tianming remained completely calm.

In his previous life, thanks to the advancement of technology, high-quality beauties could be mass-produced. Gradually, he grew tired of aesthetics and no longer felt amazed at first sight.

However, regarding the beautiful characters described in the original book, Yun Tianming still felt a hint of curiosity and interest, hoping they wouldn't be internet-famous faces.

As he raised his head, his brain experienced a brief crash.

Seated at the main seat of the sect leader was a woman, draped in a moon-white long dress that hugged her voluptuous figure. Her green hair was elegantly tied up into a phoenix hair accessory, and her beautiful face remained calm and serene, unaffected by the gaze of thousands of disciples and various factions below the stage.

This was a kind of confidence that emanated from within!

Confident, poised, gentle, beautiful, a mature elder sister — you're good to marry!

At this moment, Yun Tianming also lost his senses; his brain momentarily fantasized about marrying her.

Damn!

Yun Tianming cursed himself inwardly for being shallow, getting swayed by a woman's beauty.

But she's really beautiful!

Yun Tianming tried to restrain himself, but in the end, he couldn't help but look up again, casting his fiery gaze once more at Yun Yun.

Compared to her, any internet celebrity or star was nothing but ordinary. She fulfilled every fantasy in Yun Tianming's mind of the perfect woman!

In his previous life, a goddess of this caliber would have been unattainable for Yun Tianming, only to be admired from afar.

But in the Dou Qi Continent, things were different. In a world where strength reigned supreme, anything was possible with power!

A heart that had been silent for a long time in Yun Tianming was now ablaze with longing. He stared intensely at the perfect woman, who was so aloof and peerless.

"He could marry and crown her!"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding outer disciples cast unparalleled looks of astonishment at Yun Tianming.

What kind of insane idea is this?

As long as you're bold enough, the sect leader takes maternity leave!

Fortunately, amidst the noisy crowd at this sect gathering, not many people heard Yun Tianming's outrageous remarks. Otherwise, the angry mob would definitely tear him apart!
