The Carnation Goddess

Chapter 70 A New Holy Land Is Born

?

The banquet had lasted till midnight.

And Saintess Sheng Feiyan and Saintess Qian Yufeng had officially merged their two celestial sects into one.

However, things were not what Holy Saintess Feiyan had expected because Holy Saintess Qian Yufeng had suddenly announced ahead to all the leaders of the two celestial domains, "Since the Verdant Rain Manor and the Holy Maiden Sanctuary have decided to merge into a single holy land, it won't be gracious for our powerful Verdant Rain Manor to rename the Holy Maiden Sanctuary using the name of our holy land or the Holy Maiden Sanctuary. We are only teasing everyone earlier. Therefore, we have decided to call our new holy land a new name… and it is the Holy Carnation Sanctuary."

All the leaders of the 2 holy lands were now muttering with excitement among themselves.

"So the new name of our combined holy land is the Holy Carnation Sanctuary!"

"Holy Carnation Sanctuary …"

"We may even be stronger than the 4th and 5th holy land now…"

"Maybe we are even the 4th place now…"

Saintess Sheng Feiyan was shocked as she whispered to Qian Yufeng, "This isn't according to our agreements! The name of our new holy land is the Holy Maiden Sanctuary!"

But Saintess Qian Yufeng smiled instead and whispered to her, "Sister Feiyan, my holy land is so much stronger than yours. Have you forgotten that your holy land is ranked last?"

Sheng Feiyan: …

She got tricked by Qian Yufeng again…

100 years ago, it was like this and now it was still the same.

She was forever the too young and too simple junior sister.

And it would be too awkward to disagree with Qian Yufeng in front of so many leaders of the two holy lands today.

Saintess Qian Yufeng smiled to everyone, "From this day onward, Holy Saintess Sheng Feiyan and I shall be the two Holy Carnation Saintess Leaders of the Holy Carnation Sanctuary."

All the leaders and their delegations in the grand hall numbering thousands were now shouting loudly the new name of their holy land, "The Holy Carnation Sanctuary! The Holy Carnation Sanctuary! The Holy Carnation Sanctuary!"

Their outcries were simply too deafening!

Fairy Yue Shuwen who was at the banquet was secretly thinking: So this is the new name of the two holy land.

At the same time, she was also looking at where Song Xincheng and Han Quechan were.

Song Xincheng the Lunar Maiden looked normal and she was smiling now. That was actually not the case in the afternoon.

As for the Purity Jade Maiden Han Quechan, she looked flustered and seeming distracted compared to earlier in the afternoon.

She noted that while Song Xincheng the Lunar Maiden had been back to the banquet quite early but for the Purity Jade Maiden Han Quechan, she was almost missing for the entire afternoon and even her female protégés were looking a little panicky when they could not find their leader.

But luckily, today there were just too many cultivators that numbered almost ten thousand that were in this great hall and it was too easy to go unnoticed, especially when the hundreds of leaders from the two holy lands were all trying to mingle and to get attention to themselves so that they could advance their own influence or their own celestial sect.

Saintess Qian Yufeng giggled softy as she said to all the thousands of cultivators presented, "As you know, the 3 celestial powerhouses the Saintess Palace, the Snow Flora Pavilion and the Holy Ascension Citadel have been dominant for too long and they are trying to take over our holy lands. Especially the arrogant Holy Saintess Beitang Fang and her Saintess Palace!"

She had resisted calling Beitang Fang a holy bitch in front of the others.

"Come toast everyone! To the glory of our new holy land, the Holy Carnation Palace!"

Everyone was now toasting to the two holy saintesses and many of the leaders were now scolding the Holy Saintess Beitang Fang and her Saintess Palace now.

"We will get back to them one day!"

"Maybe we are even stronger than the Saintess Palace!"

"There is a Fairy Xiang Yun in the Saintess Palace and I've heard that she is quite a formidable sword saintess…"

"From this day onward, we have nothing to fear from the Saintess Palace anymore!"

"Even the other two powerful celestial holy lands of the Snow Flora Pavilion and the Holy Ascension Citadel are nothing compared to us now!"

"We can finally thrash them!"

"Maybe we can even replace the Snow Flora Pavilion to be in the top 3!"

Holy Saintess Sheng Feiyan on the other hand had an unpleasant look as she looked at the Qian Yufeng that had backstabbed her once more, just like in the past.

She whispered, "I won't forget about this."

But Holy Saintess Qian Yufeng laughed instead when she had heard her and whispered back, "Of course you won't forget all about this. It is because you are too grateful to me for helping you to name our new holy land. As we all know, your naming sucks so you need my help for this."

Saintess Sheng Feiyan: …

Saintess Sheng Feiyan: …

Saintess Sheng Feiyan: …

She frowned softly, "Why did I have to believe you in the first place and invite a wolf here. Shen Lie is mine and none of your business."

But Saintess Qian Yufeng simply smiled to Saintess Sheng Feiyan, "Shen Lie does not belong to you alone…"

But all of a sudden, she had turned her attention to the banquet.

It was because Fairy Yue Shuwen had suddenly walked in front of the terrace steps that were in front of them, "Greeting to the two holy saintesses. Fairy Yue Shuwen has something to announce today."

When she had said that, many of the cultivators had also stopped toasting to one another and were also curiously looking in her direction.

Saintess Sheng Feiyan asked curiously, "What is it?"

Fairy Yue Shuwen bowed respectfully with her hands to say, "Fairy Yue Shuwen may be only a guest elder but today I will like to say that I am willing to join the new Holy Carnation Palace."

Saintess Sheng Feiyan was delighted and she quickly smiled wryly, "This is a good piece of news! Come, everyone. Let's us give Fairy Yue Shuwen a hearty toast!"

Even Saintess Qian Yufeng was happy with this piece of news as well as she raised her cup to toast her, "Welcome to join the Holy Carnation Palace as our elder!"

Fairy Yue Shuwen smiled too as she raised her cup of wine, "I'll like to thank the two holy saintess as well for your welcome too."

Nangong Shu and Hua Zixia who were presented near to Saintess Sheng Feiyan and Saintess Qian Yufeng were also delighted as they said together, "We are so glad to have Fairy Yue Shuwen to join us against the other holy lands!"

Unknown to all of them, Shen Lie was actually among the thousands of cultivators as he stole to eat at the many spirit foods and drinks presented.

He was here because he had nothing to do late at night.

But he was not recognized by the two holy saintesses or anyone else because right now, he was disguising himself as an old man.

He thought dreamily of the past: If only the 7 of you can still get along like in the past… Feiyan and Yufeng, the two of you are still so much like in the past…

Their secret conversations were actually heard by Shen Lie.
