Elder Yang was on the way back to Liu Xinyu's mansion when the sky shuddered, bursting with golden lightning. He jumped, startled, but his mind quickly filled with ecstasy.

"Sect Master Liu is out of seclusion!" Elder Yang exclaimed happily, speeding up towards Lin Xinyu's mansion. It was quite obvious that Sect Master Liu would first visit his daughter after leaving as he had the habit of doing so it was the only way to catch him before he leaves.

Sect Master Liu's Golden Dragon was special, having two Elements at her disposal. Aside from the natural Fire Element, she inherited at birth, she also mastered Lightning Element, making her a power to be feared. It was one of the main reason why Sect Master Liu was considered the strongest Cultivator in the Heaven Realm.

Swoosh!

Golden flash skipped past the mountain slope right above Elder Yang with lighting bursting out in all directions. It was a Golden Dragon!

"It's here! Golden Queen!" Elder Yang called out excitedly as he looked up in the sky, following the Golden Queen with his gaze. She flew up the steep hill only to disappear in the clouds.

Sect Master Liu's mountain consisted of two parts, the lower part reserved for his daughter while the higher for Sect Master Liu. Golden Queen, also being his wife, didn't live with them, having a whole forest for herself right on the side. The whole territory was massive but for Cultivators like Sect Master Liu, it was barely enough.

Only the Lower part was accessible for the Elders like him.

"Miss Liu! Your Father is stepping down the mountain!" Elder Yang informed through the door as he knocked but he quickly realized no one was home. He hoped to catch Liu Xinyu before she left but it seemed he was too late.

Roar!

A sudden Dragon's cry from above pulled Elder Yang out of his thoughts. He smiled brightly and looked above, waiting for the Sect Master Liu to arrive.

Thud!

The ground trembled as the Dragon stomped on the ground, its massive legs sinking into the earth. Elder Yang was always amazed every time he saw this majestic creature.

Her golden eyes glared at Elder Yang before ignoring him, looking away.

"Sect Master Liu! Welcome back!" Elder Yang called out with a bow, seeing his Sect Master staring at him.

"Elder Yang, long time no see. Did you see my daughter? I can't seem to feel her presence," Sect Master Liu asked as he nodded in greeting.

"I know exactly where she is! Earlier this morning she told me to register two new disciples and I just came back with good news. I thought I can catch Miss Liu before she departs but it seems Miss Liu already left. She should be in the Water Land Capital right now, meeting with them," Elder Yang reported to the point.

Sect Master Liu raised his brows.

"Two new disciples?"

"Yes. Miss Liu recruited two disciples in Sect Master Liu's name and I must say, they are pretty impressive, as expected of Miss Liu's eye. One of them, Liu Xuefeng, even has the status of Trade Union President Wu's grandson-in-law," Elder Yang informed, surprising Sect Master Liu even more.

"Liu Xuefeng, huh?" Sect Master Liu repeated out loud, "She is in the Water Land Capital, right? Perfect. I will go there to meet them."

Sect Master Liu didn't hesitate and sat comfortably on his Golden Queen, looking as if he was about to depart right away.

"Sect Master Liu, do you wish to call a general meeting? A lot of things happened since the last time—" Elder Yang tried to stop him but Sect Master Liu cut him off. "No need. I was supposed to visit Water Land anyway to gather some rare materials, so I don't have time. As my daughter is there, I will simply visit her on the way."

"Shall I keep those two as Sect Master Liu's Disciples?" Elder Yang questioned in hurry. "Both of them have Golden Dragon Disciple Tokens."

"If my daughter thought they are worthy, keep them for now. I will test them on my own once I arrive in the Water Land," Sect Master Liu called out right before the Dragoness set off.

"Farewell!"

The Golden Queen was already tens of meters above the ground when her body wrapped in thick golden lightning.

Bang!

As if a thunder strike, the Golden Queen launched herself forward, blinking away in a split second. Together with her, Sect Master Liu was gone as well.

"Whoa…" Elder Yang muttered, amazed by the majestic ability. "If only I could find and tame a powerful beast like her…"

Sect Master Liu's Golden Queen could literally turn herself into lightning, skipping through the skies with extreme speed.

"I doubt they will even need more than two days to reach the Water Land Capital. Sect Master Liu is really the strongest…" Elder Yang commented as he flew down the mountain, ready to share the good news with the rest of the Elders.

Recalling his promise to President Wu, he also pulled out a Communication Crystal, ready to send him a message.

"Hehe, he will be shocked at the good news."

———

"Fuck! He really became a Sect Master Liu's disciple!"

President Wu was in the middle of getting it on with his secretary after a long day when he received a message from Elder Yang, confirming his suspicions.

"What happened…?" Secretary asked breathless, finally able to escape from President Wu's embrace.

"It turns out Xuefeng was recruited by Sect Master Liu's daughter in his name. Sect Master Liu even left the seclusion and will meet with him to evaluate his skills. If this bastard can pull Sect Master Liu to his side, it's all over," President Wu explained as he sat down, pouring himself a glass of strong liquor.

"President Wu… I think it might be the time to finally accept him as your grandson-in-law," Secretary suggested softly as she sat as well, buttoning her shirt at the same time. "With his skills, Sect Master Liu will definitely protect him. It's better to pull him on our side earlier than later. I already worked closely with Miss Wu today and she is amazing. She would be a great addition to the Trade Union. It's better if we accept her on good terms instead of fighting with her."

"You are right. She will definitely try to take over the headquarters and use her newly gained influence to find Xuefeng. I might as well do it myself and take the credit," President Wu commented and gulped down the glass in one go.

"Let's do it."
