Luo Yunxiao lay beside Zhang Fei with her hand inside his trousers, caressing and squeezing his dick. "Will your fifth clone stay there for long, husband?"

"Yeah." Zhang Fei nodded at Luo Yunxiao. "According to the old fox’s soul, the process will be completed in at least six months and at most one year."

Luo Yunxiao nodded in understanding. "Yan Jinwu, Sima Huiqing, and Qing Qiu’er have not dual cultivated with your fifth clone for a long time, so I believe you should replace your fifth clone with a different one, husband."

"Yeah, you’re right." Through his fifth clone, Zhang Fei asked the old fox’s soul about the matter. Since the old fox’s soul said that it didn’t matter, he replaced his fifth clone with his fourth clone before sending him back to the sect. However, he found the two seniors from the You Clan in front of his sect. "You Ran and Tan Yuxin are in our sect now."

Luo Yunxiao looked up at Zhang Fei. "I don’t think it’s a problem; they probably just want to confirm the truth with their own eyes. Why haven’t you taken You Feiling as your partner yet? Not to mention, there’s still Fang Roulan and several female elders without partners, right?"

Through his fifth clone, Zhang Fei asked Tian Kui and Serpentera to let the two guests into the sect; he then answered Luo Yunxiao. "I am interested in You Feiling, but she is not yet ready to be my partner. As for Fang Roulan and the other female elders, I know you want me to become stronger faster, but I have no interest in them. Therefore, I will never take them as partners, but I will help them develop themselves in other areas."

"Then, what are your next plans?"

"I want to open some shops as soon as possible because I want to forge lots of new weapons and equipment for you guys, but the prices of those materials are simply too expensive." Luo Yunxiao wanted to say something, but Zhang Fei immediately covered her mouth. "I know you can help me with jewels, but I can’t depend on you forever. You are all my wives, so I have to be responsible for you all. This domain is one of the best choices for opening my shop, and I’m sure I can get lots of jewels here. Unfortunately, the situation is too complicated, and we still don’t have the right allies here."

"What about the Qiao and You Clans?"

Zhang Fei shook his head in response. "The people from the Qiao Clan aren’t bad, and I’ve examined all of their souls. However, they focus more on the medical field, so I’m not sure if they can help me with my shop. If they can help me, they can only help me sell a few types of pills. The You Clan has several shops, but their focus is swordsmithing, and my items are more general, so they won’t be able to help me."

"I see." Luo Yunxiao nodded in understanding. "In that case, we should wait to meet the Fei and Liao Clans first, but I’m not sure the former will be willing to help you, especially with your status as a dual cultivator. Therefore, the best choice is the latter, and Liao Hanxue will probably be your right choice."

"Yes." Zhang Fei agreed with that. "Let’s wait until tomorrow, and we’ll go to the Liao Clan directly. I hope they aren’t too hostile toward dual cultivators, and it would be great if they were willing to become our business partners."

After that, Zhang Fei and Luo Yunxiao sat on the bed, and they took off their clothes. They summoned their avatars, released their souls, and began both dual cultivation and dual-soul cultivation simultaneously.

In the sect, Zhang Fei [5] sat with Yan Jinwu, Sima Huiqing, and Qing Qiu’er while watching You Ran and Tan Yuxin, who were looking around their sect.

"Husband, I think you should buy the time formation, and we can install it in our sect to speed up our people’s cultivation."

Zhang Fei [5] turned to Qing Qiu’er. "Time formations are very rare, you know? Moreover, such a formation wouldn’t be able to cover a large area, and we can only place it in one place."

"I know that." Qing Qiu’er replied with a nod. "Even if it can only cover a small area, it will still be beneficial to us, right? If we combine it with Jin Zhongli’s gravity techniques, we can build a special place where the flow of time is faster and the gravity is also much heavier, which will significantly improve our disciples’ abilities."

Zhang Fei [5] nodded at her. "My real body is in Cangyun City now, and I will meet the Liao Clan tomorrow. The Liao and Fei Clans focus on formation arrays and artifact forging, and they may have a time formation array. Even if they do have one, the price will be exorbitant, and we might not be able to afford it."

"At least, you could try asking them first, right?" Qing Qiu’er then stood up and took off her dress, followed by Yan Jinwu and Sima Huiqing. "The three of us haven’t dual cultivated with you in a long time, so we want to do it now, okay?"

"Haha." Zhang Fei [5] laughed at that, but he immediately summoned his avatars. "Summon your avatars first, and we’ll start dual cultivating right away."

Qing Qiu’er hurriedly summoned her avatars, and she began to dual cultivate with Zhang Fei [5], with Yan Jinwu and Sima Huiqing waiting for their turn beside the two.

"Oh? What are you two doing in this sect?" Jian Kuang questioned You Ran and Tan Yuxin, who had just arrived at the Sword Hall.

You Ran and Tan Yuxin were slightly surprised by Jian Kuang’s presence because they hadn’t seen him in Zhang Fei’s memories, and they were even more surprised when Su Shentian appeared there. However, they could not recognize Zhuxian Sheng and Han Ling, as they had never met the two men before.

"Why are you two in this sect?"

"Ha ha." Jian Kuang laughed in response. "I like that kid, Zhang Fei. He asked me to help him train disciples from this sect, and since I don’t have any business outside, I decided to stay here and help him."

"My reasons are not much different from Old Jian’s." Su Shentian then asked them. "Did you two come to this sect after meeting Zhang Fei? If I remember correctly, your clan never liked dual cultivators, so your arrival was quite surprising."

Tan Yuxin nodded at them. "Zhang Fei visited our clan before, and he showed us some things, so we decided to come here to confirm the truth."

"Have you all seen the truth now?"

"Not yet." Your Ran replied with a headshake. "We just arrived at this sect, and we went straight to this hall because Zhang Fei previously used his killing intent and bloodlust, and we knew that he was a god-rank swordmaster, so we wanted to know about this hall first."

"Hahaha." Jian Kuang laughed before pointing to Han Ling. "Little Han is Zhang Fei’s master in swordsmanship, and he is also a god-rank swordmaster like us."

Both You Ran and Tan Yuxin looked at Han Ling directly, but they felt that his cultivation was still too low, and Zhang Fei was much stronger than him.

Seeing that the two people doubted Han Lin, Jian Kuang immediately spoke to them again. "They met in the Three Mortal Realms, and they ascended to this realm at the same time. However, Little Han is not a dual cultivator, so his cultivation is slower than that kid’s. In fact, most of the new members of this sect also came from that realm, so their overall strength is still not as great as that of other supreme sects."

"Even though they came from the Three Mortal Realms, many of them are experts in their respective fields." Su Shentian then pointed towards the Alchemy Hall, which was located a little away from the Sword Hall. "If you go there, you will meet three god-rank alchemists there, and one of them is Empress Huo’s subordinate."

"Empress... Empress Huo." You Ran and Tan Yuxin stuttered. "Is... is Zhang Fei really related to Empress Huo?"

Jian Kuang nodded at them. "Empress Huo has visited this sect several times, and she also joined Zhang Fei in the Endless Night Dungeon before. She declared that this sect is under her protection, and anyone who disturbs it will be her enemy. Since that kid told you some things and you guys came here in person, I presume he wants to build cooperation with your clan, so you should consider your choice carefully."

"I see." Ran You and Tan Yuxin nodded at them. "In that case, the two of us will take a look around the other halls first."

After the two of them left, Zhuxian Sheng asked the others, "Do you think they will really accept Zhang Fei’s offer?"

"If the two of them reject Zhang Fei’s offer, then they are the biggest fools." Su Shentian nodded in agreement with Jian Kuang. "Little Han, let’s continue our spar, and Sheng will spar with Old Su."

After touring all the halls of the Moonlit Passion Sect, You Ran and Tan Yuxin decided to leave the sect and began considering partnering with Zhang Fei. However, they couldn’t make a decision right away and had to discuss the matter with their members first.
