Yun Jinnian took a deep breath.
"Your proposition has tempted !"
Not to ntion anything else, these Snow Lotuses truly tempted her.
"That’s not all, Moonwatching Sect has many kinds of Martial Arts that you can let those close to you learn, not to ntion the wealth accumulated over the years, the influences in various countries, being the Saintess peacefully; there are only benefits beyond your wildest imagination that await you!"
Of course, there would be rebels, but rebels do not possess the complete Poison Scripture, nor do they have the Sacred Relic and Spiritual Poisonous Insects, let alone the Detoxification Pills refined with the blood of the Saintess.
The end for any rebel is sumd up in one word, death!
"I am already the Saintess of Nanjiang!"
It was only after a long while that Yun Jinnian spoke softly.
"It’s different, girl. Right now, you have only agreed to be the Saintess of Nanjiang but have not taken this matter seriously. What I want you to promise is to take the rise and fall of Nanjiang as your responsibility, and you can rest assured, you will only need to make decisions, you won’t actually have to do anything!"
After the initial shock, Yun Jinnian also cald down.
"No, you still need sothing from , which is why you’re allowing to take anything I want. There are no free als in the world!"
To eat, one must pay a price.
Otherwise, there would not be a requirent to return to Nanjiang every three years.
Law Master laughed, "Then, what do you think it is?"
"I don’t know. I’ve agreed to leave behind the Sacred Relic and the Spiritual Poisonous Insects, yet the five elders still insist. I think it’s because I can make the Spiritual Poisonous Insects fight desperately to save , because I can make them obey, or perhaps it’s my blood," Yun Jinnian said as she looked at Law Master.
These were all her guesses.
Whether they were true or false, that remained unknown.
Suddenly, Law Master burst into loud laughter, "You’re a smart girl indeed, and you guessed right. It’s only with your blood that the Spiritual Poisonous Insects will lay eggs inside the small cauldron, and the small cauldron must feed on your blood to hatch the Spiritual Poisonous Insects. The Spiritual Poisonous Insects only respond to the Saintess and release their essence. To create a redy that can neutralize all poisons in Nanjiang, it is essential to have the essence and blood of the Spiritual Poisonous Insects as well as the blood of the Saintess!"
Yun Jinnian fell silent upon hearing this.
She was being used by these people, but she was using them as well.
Using them, she obtained the Snow Lotuses, the sincere devotion of many people, and so other benefits as well.
Putting oneself in another’s shoes, she had gained more.
"My intelligence is limited, but if you trust , I will be a good Saintess. However, there are so things I still insist on!"
"For instance, I must stay in Capital City; my relatives are there, and in the future, if my daughter inherits my dical skills, I will support her to beco the Saintess. If no one can inherit them, once I’ve fulfilled so of my wishes and can take my family away from Capital City, I will co to Nanjiang and stay forever in the sect. As long as I’m alive, my word stands!" Yun Jinnian was absolutely serious.
Law Master looked at Yun Jinnian with eagerness in his eyes, "A gentleman’s agreent!"
"Cannot be taken back even by a team of horses!" Yun Jinnian said resolutely.
"Swear with a palm strike!"
Old and young, they struck their palms together forcefully three tis.
Yun Jinnian’s palm was slightly numb, but she still smiled.
Law Master then kneeled on one knee, "Your subordinate greets the Saintess!"
Yun Jinnian was taken aback.
"...."
This?
She couldn’t accept it.
"Get up quickly, I can’t accept this!" said Yun Jinnian hurriedly.
However, Law Master laughed, stood up, and scooped Yun Jinnian into his arms.
"Ah..." Yun Jinnian scread.
This old man was acting too rashly.
It was simply detestable.
Yun Jinnian’s face suddenly turned red with embarrassnt.
"Don’t overthink it, Saintess. Since your subordinate has recognized the Saintess, it is only natural that everyone in this valley should know who the Saintess of the Moonwatching Sect is and what she looks like!" Law Master said as he carried Yun Jinnian up the steps.
