Chapter 615: The Pavilion Master’s Position
"Alright! I’ll go investigate Han Litong’s whereabouts immediately!" Lan Ling didn’t waste a moment and turned to leave. He had never liked that annoying woman, Han Qingjue, and after all the wicked things she’d done, now that he finally had a chance, he definitely wanted to confront her!
In the following days, the Ghost Ancestor personally sought out a few old connections in the Spirit Cultivation Realm to set up a defense barrier around the Prayer Pavilion together, then announced the official establishment of the Prayer Pavilion.
Although the idea of the Prayer Pavilion was suggested by Han Jing, the position of Pavilion Master was still entrusted to Lian Xichen by Han Jing.
First of all, her identity was somewhat sensitive. Since Xia Ji had known about her and the child’s matter, she presumably knew a bit about her background. Therefore, Han Jing wasn’t planning to cause extra trouble or draw attention at such a time.
The purpose of establishing the Prayer Pavilion was also to build a force of their own, and then unite with as many potential allies as possible, so they could contend with Lingyou Hall in the future.
Originally, Lian Xichen had no intention of taking on the role of Pavilion Master, but he understood Han Jing’s intentions.
After getting to know her during this period, he finally understood what made this woman special.
She had ambition, yet also a soft heart.
She cared about power but wasn’t obsessed with it.
She was simply using her own way to achieve her goals, to protect what she wanted to protect. She was truly a woman who understood the greater picture, yet had simple desires.
From initially being full of doubts and uncertainties about her, Lian Xichen was now willing to help her, loyal to her, and even had a hint of admiration for her.
No wonder even the senior brother, with his high standards, was enchanted by her.
Even Lan Ling, with his unruly temper, was willing to run around for her. And the Ghost Ancestor, known for being eccentric and unapproachable in the Spirit Cultivation Realm, also turned into an ordinary elder around her, nagging but sincerely guiding her, busying himself for her. For the establishment of the Prayer Pavilion, he even set aside his pride to get in touch with some old friends.
Therefore, when she asked him to take on the role of Pavilion Master, he saw no reason to hesitate.
She was the biological daughter of his adoptive father, and the beloved wife of his senior brother. She called him brother, and he would dedicate his life to helping her achieve her wishes.
Lan Ling worked hard for several days and finally received good news. Actually, he used a little trickery; after learning about Han Litong’s whereabouts, he sent someone to leak that the Beiming Pearl was stolen, and it was related to Han Qingjue.
Upon hearing this news, Han Litong couldn’t sit still. She had long been puzzled about how the Beiming Pearl mysteriously disappeared. Han Qingjue had told her that Xia Ji was behind it, but the place where the Beiming Pearl was kept was so secure that, even if Xia Ji had extraordinary skills, it shouldn’t be possible to steal it without leaving a trace!
Still... no matter what, she had never doubted her biological daughter.
This news immediately threw Han Litong into chaos, and she promptly returned to Beihan Palace.
At this time, it was the perfect opportunity for Han Jing and her team to head to Beihan Palace.
So after a brief discussion, Han Jing, Lian Xichen, Lan Ling, along with An Chuxue, immediately prepared to leave. Just as they were about to depart, they noticed two heads peeking from behind the door.
