Chapter 725: The Yaoguang Sect on Yaoguang Island

Chapter 725: Chapter 725: The Yaoguang Sect on Yaoguang Island

Some people never manage to fulfill their dreams, and they die with their eyes still not closed.

Shi Yaoguang gave them the chance to carry out Zhao Muze’s original plan to seize power with his illegitimate children; it was as if she allowed him to accomplish his wish.

As for what to do after Zhao Muze’s lackeys lost their value and his dream of global domination remained unfulfilled?

Shi Yaoguang declared that it had nothing to do with her.

She had given Zhao Muze the chance to fulfill his dream. If he still died with eyes wide open, who was to blame?

If one had no ability, should they blame others?

Heh.

The Divine Sense of Heavenly Dao, which hadn’t fully dissipated yet, couldn’t help but shiver upon knowing what the two were thinking.

This woman was too terrifying; he absolutely couldn’t fall into her hands.

Shi Yaoguang, sensing something, looked up toward a certain direction.

At that moment, even the wind seemed to hold its breath.

Heavenly Dao didn’t dare to move.

It was only when he was about to suffocate himself that Shi Yaoguang’s gaze casually shifted away.

Heavenly Dao heaved a sigh of relief, then belatedly realized he didn’t need to breathe.

Eh, breathing or not isn’t important.

The key was the feeling of having escaped death was too real.

...

Shi Yaoguang, for her part, didn’t realize that the Divine Sense of Heavenly Dao had become so cowardly.

She, along with Quan Jinbei, began to construct the island.

The dense forest remained as it was; Shi Yaoguang didn’t change a thing.

All she did was flatten out the places where Zhao Muze had originally built his labs and built an immortal sect’s cavern abode.

This, with the help of Heavenly Dao.

Speaking of this, Heavenly Dao had to wipe away a tear of bitter resentment.

He, the mighty Heavenly Dao, was actually driven by Shi Yaoguang to move mountains!

If it hadn’t been for the fact that he couldn’t defeat her, he really wanted to point at Shi Yaoguang’s nose and question her.

Did she think of him as Yu Gong, the foolish old man from the tale?

Shifting mountains to set them shimmering brightly?

No matter how much discontent he harbored, Heavenly Dao could only keep it to himself. After assisting Shi Yaoguang in moving several mountains teeming with Spiritual Energy, Heavenly Dao vanished completely.

Continuing to spy would only consume all his remaining power, and he needed to spend all his energy on critical matters, not as a laborer!

After the cave abode was completed, Shi Yaoguang called out to Heavenly Dao twice.

Getting no response, she said to Quan Jinbei, "When did Heavenly Dao leave? I originally wanted to give him some energy as thanks, but it seems he left early."

Fortunately for Heavenly Dao, he didn’t hear her words, otherwise, he would have dissipated on the spot in anger.

Once the immortal sect’s cavern abode was finished, Shi Yaoguang was ready to give a name to the sect and, incidentally, to the island as well.

"What do you think would be a good name?"

She posed this question to Quan Jinbei, and the answer he gave left her utterly speechless.

His exact words were as follows.

"Why not call it Yaoguang Island, with Yaoguang Sect on Yaoguang Island, and Yaoguang Forest outside the Yaoguang Sect... We could even plant a batch of Yaoguang Flowers!"

After Quan Jinbei finished, he wore an expression begging for praise.

Shi Yaoguang replied with a grudging smile, "Why didn’t you call it Jinbei Island? Jinbei Sect? Jinbei Forest?"

Quan Jinbei: "..."

He was silent for a moment before saying, "My name doesn’t sound nice."

Shi Yaoguang: "..."

Speechless, yet so true.

In the end, Shi Yaoguang still agreed to his suggestion.

Not for any particular reason, mainly because... naming was too troublesome.

Due to their hasty decision, Yaoguang Island and Yaoguang Sect were successively brought into being.

As for the dense forest outside the Yaoguang Sect, it was simply named the "Nameless Dense Forest."

Quan Jinbei couldn’t stop praising it, while Shi Yaoguang was utterly speechless.

She had a clear understanding of herself and suspected that Quan Jinbei might be praising her disingenuously, possibly even setting her up for failure.

But setting someone up for failure was out of the question. How could Quan Jinbei do such a thing to Shi Yaoguang?

His own wife, after all, had to be doted on.

Especially after learning that he had known Shi Yaoguang without realizing it, and that they had many interactions, Quan Jinbei became even more attached.

Shi Yaoguang didn’t care why; she just took all the excessive flattery with a grain of salt, never taking it seriously.

After establishing the Yaoguang Sect, Shi Yaoguang refurbished the island and reinforced it with some Formations and barriers.

The island was already quite hidden, and with the added Formations, it was impossible for outsiders to find it without a guide familiar with the place.

Once she eliminated all potential hazards, Shi Yaoguang also inscribed a Teleportation Array on the island.

With the Teleportation Array, coming and going from Yaoguang Island was much more convenient.

After setting up the Sect, Shi Yaoguang made contact with the authorities.

The two hundred people who followed her became the first core members of the Sect.

The relevant department’s personnel were very envious.

"That’s cultivation! Real cultivation! They might even ascend to the heavens someday. Why wasn’t I chosen back then?"

"I had a chance to go before. If it weren’t for my worries about Shi Yaoguang’s reliability, I could have been cultivating by now!"

"I heard Zhan Miao is close with Miss Shi; if we talk to Zhan Miao, maybe we still have a chance?"

Such conversations were common in the military after Shi Yaoguang opened her Sect.

Zhan Miao, who had a past acquaintance with Shi Yaoguang, naturally became a person everyone tried to cozy up to.

If Zhan Miao could put in a good word for them, then cultivation wouldn’t just be a dream.

Little did they know, Zhan Miao also wanted to cultivate.

But his talents were insufficient.

To talk about it was to weep a bucket of bitter tears.

Zhan Miao naturally had a chance to join, but although he was competent, he lacked the talent for cultivation.

As such, he had to give the opportunity to others.

Now, with his colleagues eyeing him, he really wanted to cry without tears.

Fortunately, Shi Yaoguang didn’t make him shoulder the blame for too long.

Soon, she explained the purpose of her Sect and how to recruit disciples.

With the open recruitment conditions, Zhan Miao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he still felt a bit bitter.

You tell me, how could he, a burly and sturdy man... no, a well-built and solid man, lack the talent for cultivation?

His own misfortune was one thing, but having Shi Fan as a contrast made it even worse.

Here’s what happened.

Once the news about Shi Yaoguang establishing the Sect spread in certain circles, Shi Fan got wind of it.

Then, he went to test his talent.

Not testing was one thing, but once he did...

emm...

He became the person with the highest talent among all those tested.

In the blink of an eye, he became an inner disciple.

Together with Cheng Lingdang and Shen Antai, he became a disciple of Shi Yaoguang.

As for Cheng Lingdang and Shen Antai, that made Zhan Miao feel even more bitter.

If everyone’s talent had been poor, that would have been one thing, but the fact that Cheng Lingdang, a young girl, and Shen Antai, an old wreck, could make it and he couldn’t was too much to bear.

How depressed he was, only he knew.

Thankfully, Shi Fan was on good terms with him; they had shared meals and lodgings in the same barracks, so he didn’t want to see Zhan Miao so downcast.

Therefore, Shi Fan approached Shi Yaoguang, hoping she could help Zhan Miao out, even if it was just to do some menial tasks.
