Afterward, Ye Luo followed the Elder and directly arrived at the location behind the Purple Star Sect’s mountain. This location, situated behind the Gold Silk Forest, has always been a forbidden area of the Sect. Rumor has it that it’s the cultivation ground of the Sect’s mysterious ancestor.

Then, why have Ye Luo and these disciples been allowed to enter?

Of course, the Grand Elder certainly doesn’t have the authority to make such decisions; it must be the Sect Master’s instructions.

The area of this back mountain is quite expansive, at the foot of the mountain lies a huge plaza, surrounded by some low buildings densely packed like a honeycomb. Judging by the appearance, it seems no one has lived here for many years.

At the front of the plaza stands a rather large palace, indeed bigger than any Cave Mansion of the Purple Star Sect.

Not to mention the Purple Star Sect, even on Mt. Sumeru, this building would be considered extremely luxurious.

After all, in the South Territory, people are not particular about architecture. Even for important figures, there aren’t many requirements, so long as it can withstand the raging power of the Laws, it’s deemed an ideal residence.

Therefore, this palace is obviously not the work of people from the South Territory, though from a distance, it’s covered in a layer of dust.

This leaves Ye Luo puzzled, as such a vast dwelling with abundant spiritual power remains uninhabited?

Furthermore, seeing the disciples’ bewildered expressions, it’s likely they’re also unaware of the reason.

Could it be that the Sect’s ancestor is in seclusion inside? If so, would Ye Luo be strangled by the ancestor upon entry!

Still, the Sect Master surely wouldn’t disturb the ancestor, right?

Generally speaking, an ancestor of a Sect is the pillar of its strength, and the Sect must cater to them, venerating them like Immortals.

"Elder Ye, are you satisfied with this new dwelling?" the Grand Elder suddenly asked with a smile.

Ye Luo nodded slightly, "I am indeed satisfied, but it seems no one has ever lived here!"

Now, he can’t afford to overlook anything; if he moves in without clarifying things, it could easily cost him his life!

The Grand Elder was silent for a moment, "This place used to be where the ancestor cultivated in seclusion, and back then, it was surrounded by disciples, but the ancestor encountered some issues and left. Since then, it’s been vacant, but there’s nothing peculiar about it; it’s just that once the ancestor left, others dared not move in recklessly!"

Hearing the Grand Elder’s words, Ye Luo felt a sense of relief, but naturally, as a cunning elder, his words can’t be entirely trusted.

Next, it was time to settle these disciples.

To Ye Luo’s surprise, more than a dozen other elders also came to help. Their intentions were clear, to curry favor with Ye Luo.

After all, his strength is debatable, but it’s evident he is favored by the Sect Master. Why he could win the Sect Master’s favor isn’t a concern for the other elders, but building a good relationship with Ye Luo would surely benefit them.

These elders, usually oppressed severely by that old crone, were a few marginalized elders within the Sect.

Of course, they are generally younger in age with lower cultivation, some even having just recently become elders.

The oldest among them is only entering middle age, but differently from the disciples, each of them exudes a mature beauty, presenting an immense allure and impact.

Even Ye Luo couldn’t help but take several glances, and upon catching Ye Luo’s eye, they would all display charming expressions.

Ye Luo then realized that men are too scarce in the Sect, and most are ordinary people, whom these women don’t fancy. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Even cultivators have physiological needs, and prolonged restraint can inevitably cause some issues.

Ye Luo doesn’t mind helping them resolve their needs, but it would waste his time! This puts him in a difficult position!

After all, with so many female elders and disciples, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to take any action.

However, he is a man with limits and won’t do anything beyond his lower bounds.

"Elder Ye, these disciples have mostly settled down. Do you have any other instructions?" A well-built elder walked over and respectfully asked Ye Luo.

Ye Luo squinted his eyes, "Thanks for your help, elders. These disciples are too numerous, considering my limited energy alone. It’s better if all the elders move over and help me manage these disciples. As for cultivation resources, let the Grand Elder handle the allocation!"

What he needs to do now is to shift the responsibility!

He doesn’t care about what these elders aim for, nor about their goodness or badness, as it bears no relevance to him. Currently, he seeks to free up time to tend to his well-being, awaiting entry into the Spirit Pool.

Upon hearing this, the elders beamed with joy, indicating Ye Luo had accepted them! This means they will receive more cultivation resources, and Ye Luo’s rise is an inevitable trend. After all, with the Grand Elder here, Ye Luo’s future status in the Purple Star Sect is bound to surpass that old crone, matching the Grand Elder.

"Then thank you, Elder Ye. We will find a place to settle here, and regardless of Elder Ye’s requests, we will cooperate with you!" The elder spoke softly with affectionate eyes.

Instantly, Ye Luo felt a bit overwhelmed; her words were too straightforward.

Meanwhile, the Grand Elder stood by, seemingly oblivious to their conversation, as stable and statue-like as if he hadn’t heard a word.

At this moment, a young girl suddenly approached.

Naturally, it was Nuonuo. Although Nuonuo had recognized Ye Luo earlier, she hadn’t had a chance to speak to him until now, seeing Ye Luo finally free, she walked over.

Nonetheless, she did not come too close, as she is merely an ordinary disciple of the Purple Star Sect, and before elders, she doesn’t even have the opportunity to speak.

"Hmph, you shameless thing, why are you here? Hurry up back home! Do you think this place is for someone like you?" A female disciple suddenly scolded Nuonuo, who had shared the same Cave Mansion with her before.

She seemed accustomed to bullying Nuonuo, and even now, seeing Nuonuo, she began cursing immediately.

Nuonuo instantly frowned, "Believe it or not, I’ll tear your mouth apart!"

Hmm? This disciple immediately raised her head, looking at Nuonuo in astonishment.

She had never resisted whenever anyone cursed her before!
