"I will deal with these." Yuan turned back to normal after those Elders were tied up and had their energies sealed.
"Break a leg." i chuckled, dragging everyone away. "But the Treasures are ours, since it's still part of the Treasure Pavilion."
"Ugh. You are relentless." Yuan groaned, but a deal was a deal, and she was happy that the Seer was once again energetic. 'Although I wonder why she is keeping up with Divination.' She couldn't understand why the Seer kept those ugly lines.
i left with White Aiko and others, to leave space for Yuan to do her thing.
The Demonic Foxes were curious, but it was more fun to be with the main group, so pretty much everyone left.
"I wonder what will happen to them." Moon Aiko was curious, but not curious enough to keep up with 'THAT' face.
"So Yuan scares you too, huh?" i knew that Aiko was sensitive to certain faces, but this much...
"Obviously, have you seen her face?" Moon Aiko shuddered.
[Additional Energy balance underway.]
Another system ssage popped up, this was like the 3rd one Moon Aiko got, and the energies were still not balanced.
"Yuan can be scary, but she is also very sweet." i patted Aiko.
"Whatever..." Moon Aiko sighed. "We are going for the broken Treasures, right?"
"Indeed." i nodded her head.
"I wonder how that will end..." Moon Aiko was not looking forward to the work ahead, but it was much better than eating those Pills-
"Wait, why don't I need to eat Pills any more?" Moon Aiko never asked that question before.
"We have precious lotuses that can be used to recover Dai Lu to her pri." i chuckled.
"So Grandmaster will no longer be a cute granny?" Moon Aiko tilted her head.
"Who are you calling granny?" Dai Lu grabbed Aiko's head.
"I an... you already have wrinkles, so..." Moon Aiko whistled innocently.
"Why do you have to fire so many rude words at everyone." Dai Lu shook her head.
"But it's the truth..." Moon Aiko pouted.
"So truth is better left untold." Dai Lu said seriously.
"So that they can't progress, can be deluded or turn arrogant? No, thank you." Moon Aiko shook her body in disagreent, since it was impossible to shake her head.
"..." Dai Lu let go of Aiko's head, not sure what to say more.
It was true that so information was better left untold, but who decides what should not be said and what should be said?
There are no universal rules that say you have to tell them those things, but also no rules to say you shouldn't.
It was a very hard balancing act, depending on whom you talked with.
Soone like Aiko and i would rather have all the information at their disposal, while soone like Yuan would prefer not to know.
What was even worse, the one that tells the 'thing' had to decide if it was a good idea or not.
The problem with that is everyone is unpredictable. Even Dai Lu had her monts of rather not knowing at first, but later down the line it helped her imnsely.
"You shouldn't overthink things. The more you dwell on them, the harder the decision becos." i smiled bittersweetly as they walked towards the stash with the broken Treasures.
"I think that everyone has a point, but it's just..." Dai Lu sighed.
"Strange hearing it from soone so young?" i giggled. Moon Aiko was eccentric, so maybe that allowed her to have a different point of view.
"The worst thing is that I can't even refute it, even with my experience." Dai Lu didn't like that part, but it was not like she would hold it against Aiko.
"All is good as long as the ssage is good." i smiled as she patted Dai Lu's back. "Sotis you need the younger generation, as they are silly and not burdened by worldly ans as much as we are."
"For a bit I completely forgot that you are much older than I am." Dai Lu laughed awkwardly, but she was quite happy about this opportunity.
"It will take about a month to refine those Herbs and about another week to create that Pill, so either follow Aiko around or do so leftover work." i gestured to Dai Lu.
"Right..." Dai Lu nodded her head. She should do sothing to settle her mind, since even she didn't expect for the Southern Sect to be so generous.
"I think it's because of their Saintess..." i still felt weird about Aiko having multiple partners, but after experiencing 'THAT' she knew that she wouldn't be able to keep up.
"Interesting." Dai Lu smiled. "I never knew that you would be at Aiko's rcy~" She humd mischievously, slapping her tails with her own tails.
"Off with you." i rolled her eyes as she pushed Dai Lu to do so work.
"Fufufu~" Dai Lu giggled as she grabbed Chen Shi.
"Why ?!" Chen Shi never understood these carefree Foxes.
"I like to watch soone playing with Runes, and we still need to repair the continental flying ships." Dai Lu humd, dragging him away.
"He seems a lot happier than before." Chen Yanqi popped out of nowhere.
"Why are you not following them?" i tilted her head.
"He ran dry with the flight, I'm still resting." Yanqi stuck out her tongue playfully.
"Still intimidating." Moon Aiko stared at those balloons hatefully.
"You will get used to it. Most Immortal Female Cultivators have a rack that could topple mountains." i sighed, shaking her head.
"Can we skip Immortal World?" Moon Aiko seriously pleaded since she didn't like it at all.
"No, we can't." i sighed. She also hated that since she never had anything in her previous life.
i gently touched her chest, feeling happy that it was a lot bigger than in her previous life.
"What's that face for?" Moon Aiko was taken aback.
"You will understand one day." i chuckled.
"Gosh, I hate this..." Moon Aiko didn't like when everyone was saying that she should wait to know more.
"Well, you will be very busy to even think about it." i chuckled sinisterly.
"Now you are just wishing sothing awful." Moon Aiko grumbled when they stopped in front of the stash.
It looked like a normal warehouse, similar to the Treasure Pavilion, just with fewer guards.
"So this is it, huh?" Moon Aiko sighed.
"Good luck." i chuckled.
"I swear. I will make sothing that will blow your mind so that you don't have ti to assign these jobs." Moon Aiko swore with a serious expression.
i raised her eyebrow. "But you were the one-"
"Shush!" Moon Aiko shushed i before walking inside.
"Maybe I should call her team to keep her company?" i titled her head.
'No, wait, that would an calling over Danji...' i groaned. 'Let's just return to do the rest of the paperwork...'
...
"You are late." Danji said seriously.
"What are you doing?" i was shocked to find Danji behind her desk doing paperwork.
"Demonic Foxes are no joke with their intelligence." Danji proclaid. "I have fixed a few things with the help of so of the Foxes." She gestured to the papers on the table.
"No, before that, why is this whole study filled with papers?" i thought that she had only a few papers to go through left.
"Because Yuan stashed these when she didn't want to work." Danji said seriously as she picked up another piece of paper and looked through it.
"Ugh. I swear I will spank the tails out of her!" i groaned, realising that Yuan was not that good with paperwork.
"You should ask Aiko what to do about this, maybe she can co up with sothing nice." Danji teased i, knowing that they had a happy ti without her.
"Now, now, don't sulk." i rolled her eyes. "We both know she is no joke." She shuddered lightly.
"That's not how you should act, you know. 'Mighty Queen of Diggers'." Danji teased her even more.
"What's with that nickna?!" i cringed just hearing it. This had so serious firepower behind it!
"I an, no normal person would consider digging a secret vault." Danji shrugged.
"That was not my idea, but theirs." i imdiately stopped her to correct that record.
"Huh?" Danji was montarily stunned. "When did that Chen bastard beco so wild?"
"I think Aiko infected him." i shrugged.
"So it is contagious..." Danji nodded her head seriously.
"Right?" i joined her.
"Those papers are about the scale of the new Array and the overall distance." Danji pointed at those papers which filled most of the room.
"What about those?" i pointed to a smaller stash in the corner.
"We need Aiko for that, since only those Ghosts will know the locations of all secret stashes." Danji shook her head.
"Damn..." i cursed under her breath before sitting down and picking up so papers.
"But I didn't think you would be finished so soon..." Danji looked at i.
"If Aiko didn't join the digging, the Foxes would never turn so enthusiastic." i shrugged. For so reason, Aiko was a great motivator for everyone.
"I wonder why..." Even Danji had a hard ti understanding her own kind...
-----
"Fucking hell..." Moon Aiko cried out when she saw the mountain of broken Treasures.
"I thought they would at least sort it, but I will have to do that by hand just to keep similar tals together..." Moon Aiko almost cursed all the generations of the Foxes managing this place.
"It is a pain in the ass to adjust everything, but we can do it in bulk." Grandpa Fla popped up. Now that he didn't need to warm up that place, he had a lot of free ti.
"You can? Didn't you say it was a pain in the ass?" Moon Aiko tilted her head.
"I grew stronger." Grandpa Fla said proudly.
"Because of those cursed Treasures?" Moon Aiko tilted her head to the other side.
"Smart." Grandpa Fla chuckled.
"But that strong?" Moon Aiko didn't feel like he was any different.
"It's not about temperature, but the area and precision I'm able to command." Grandpa Fla proclaid.
"No wonder you are ranked as 7th Spiritual Fla." Moon Aiko nodded her head seriously.
"I'm nowhere that powerful." Grandpa Fla denied it vehently.
"Huh? But the system tells that you are seventh?" Moon Aiko was confused.
"Could it be the potential that I have? If so, I could see that." Grandpa Fla nodded his head seriously.
"Is that so?" Moon Aiko asked the system about it.
[Most rankings are based on potential instead of current strength.]
[We are also adjusting the potential to include the Immortal World once it's more relevant.]
"I didn't think it worked like that." Moon Aiko was startled.
[Not before, no. We have been adjusting the system as we went along to make it easier to understand the limit of everything.]
[This would allow you to choose the right decision based on knowledge that you have already acquired.]
"Then what would his rank be right now?" Moon Aiko was curious.
[Outside the 1,000 ranking, but inside 10,000.]
"That's... quite weak. I should feed him more." Moon Aiko nodded her head seriously.
[We suggest him to get more area and precision under his control as that would allow him to jump into the 1,000th ranking.]
"Huh? Does that make so much difference?" Moon Aiko was startled.
[Because he already commands a powerful Spiritual Fla, but the problem is the overall control. While all Spiritual Flas have perfect control over certain areas. He is far from that control, making him drop significantly.]
[But because of that it's pointless to show his current standing as it changes almost daily, and it's not a good indication of where he stands.]
"I didn't think everything was so complex." Moon Aiko was even more startled once she realised that things were more complicated than one thought...
