Chapter 140: Mystic Beastmaster Saint Inheritance Site

A flurry of activity buzzed through the newly constructed central residence. The once-independent estates of the Wang, Xia, and Song families had been seamlessly integrated, forming a central hub of power. Laughter echoed from within.

Xia Bingling, the formidable Matriarch of the Xia Family, oversaw the allocation of rooms, her sharp eyes ensuring each inhabitant received a dwelling befitting their station.

Xia Qingwu, her pride and joy, was given spacious quarters adorned with vibrant silks.

Her loyal maids scurried about, arranging her belongings and whispering excitedly about their upcoming move.

The Song Family contingent, led by the ever-astute Matriarch Song Jingyan, arrived with an entourage of beautiful women, each seemingly plucked from a painting.

Their arrival set tongues wagging amongst the Wang servants, who marveled at their exotic beauty and vibrant attire.

Wang Li, the architect of this grand unification, surveyed the scene with a satisfied smirk. He had not only secured powerful allies in Xia Bingling and Song Jingyan, but also a veritable harem housed under one roof.

Each evening presented a delightful choice – the fiery passion of Xia Bingling, the experienced allure of Song Jingyan, or the innocent charm of Xia Qingwu (who remained blissfully unaware of his duplicity).

But his machinations didn't stop there. Armed with the information gleaned from the Iron Hammer Sect captives, Wang Li meticulously planned their next move.

Targeting the Iron Hammer Sect's trade routes and resource warehouses, he dispatched a unified force comprised of elite cultivators from all three clans.

Banners emblazoned with the newly designed Three Peaks Alliance symbol fluttered in the wind as they set forth, a testament to Wang Li's ambition.

The mission was a resounding success. Laden with plundered treasures – spirit stones, rare herbs, and exotic materials – the unified force returned to the central residence.

The sheer volume of resources they acquired fueled a new wave of excitement and anticipation.

With these spoils, Wang Li could further empower his own cultivators, bolster their defenses, and attract even more talented individuals to his banner.

Meanwhile, a different kind of celebration was brewing. The grand wedding ceremonies for the thirty young women of the Wang family were about to commence.

These weren't random pairings; Wang Li, with his keen eye for potential, had meticulously chosen their partners during his earlier visits to the Crimson Rock Sect, Emerald Sea Palace, and Golden Bell Sect.

Each groom was a rising star in their respective sect, possessing not only exceptional talent and a promising cultivation destiny but also a temperament that suited Wang Li's goals. He needed individuals who could seamlessly integrate into the Three Peaks Alliance.

The wedding festivities stretched on for days. The central residence echoed with laughter, music, and joyous celebrations.

Each bride, adorned in silks as luxurious as their new home, glowed with happiness. Each groom, stepping into the Wang family fold, took a silent oath of loyalty to their new patriarch.

Across the vast distance, in the Jade Lotus Palace, Liu Xue received the message with a sigh.

Having just discussed the inheritance site with her master, she already knew her master's intentions.

Activating a communication talisman, she sent a quick reply.

"My love," her voice, laced with playful sincerity, "fret not. Master has already declared her intention to visit the inheritance site. It seems that the legacy of a legendary beastmaster is too tempting to resist."

The talisman pulsed once more and vanished, carrying Liu Xue's message back to Wang Li.

Wang Li's grin widened. This was it – the perfect opportunity.

The inheritance site, fraught with danger even for a Soul Integration Realm expert like Jiu Lan, could be the key to subduing the arrogant beauty.

An arena where cultivation base wouldn't be the only factor at play, where cunning and exploiting the environment could prove more valuable.

After all, the legacy of a Void Ascension Realm expert wouldn't be some walk in the park.

The news that Jiu Lan, Palace Mistress of the Jade Lotus Palace, planned to enter the trial site spread like wildfire among the other sects.

Soon, the arrival of Sect Master Deng of the Azure Peak Sect, Palace Mistress Gao Ming of the Emerald Sea Palace, and even the Sect Leaders of the Crimson Rock Sect and Golden Bell Temple were confirmed.

This had now become a competition between the most powerful sects in the land. The potential rewards of this inheritance were simply too enticing to ignore.

The stage was set. Soon, the most ambitious and daring cultivators would converge on the Crimson Lotus Kingdom, each vying for a chance to unlock the secrets of the Mystic Beastmaster Saint.

Within the grand chamber of the Three Peaks Alliance, an air of deliberation hung heavy. The council room, adorned with opulent silks and gleaming jade ornaments, housed a gathering of power rarely seen in the land. Matriarch Xia Bingling, her face etched with a mixture of concern and determination, presided over the meeting.

Beside her sat her daughter, Xia Qingwu, the picture of youthful beauty and simmering potential.

Across from them sat Patriarch Wang Li, a sly grin playing on his lips. His gaze flitted across the room, taking in the other participants: the ever-seductive Matriarch Song Jingyan, and his own alluring cousin, Wang Xiangyi. Each woman, a powerhouse in their own right, held their silence, their eyes fixed on Wang Li in anticipation.

The subject at hand was the newly discovered Mystic Beastmaster Saint's inheritance. The news, a wildfire crackling across the cultivation world, had reached the Three Peaks Alliance, igniting a spark of ambition in Wang Li's eyes.

"This inheritance site," he declared, his voice ringing in the chamber, "presents a unique opportunity for our Alliance."

Xia Bingling, ever the pragmatist, furrowed her brow. "But the dangers within are well-documented," she countered. "Three local gangs entered already, and none returned. Even Soul Integration Realm beasts like the Bloodjade Spider lurk within."

A flicker of excitement danced in Wang Li's eyes. "Precisely," he agreed, leaning forward. "This inheritance is not for the faint of heart. It demands a cunning mind and a strategic approach." He paused, letting his words sink in before continuing. "I propose I enter the trial site alone."
