Upon hearing this, the elders in the hall were all shaken, and their sense of belonging and honor to the sect soared.
Some of the younger female elders had their eyes sparkling with admiration, as if they would offer themselves to Chu Yang at the slightest beckoning.
Chu Yang changed the subject and asked, "Has the location for the directional teleportation array been chosen?"
Nalan Yanran nodded and said, "It's been chosen, and we can start setting up at any time."
"Elder Jin, please take Junior Brother there. I will arrive shortly after I have finished arranging matters within the sect."
The portly old man nodded, gestured to Chu Yang, and bowed slightly, saying, "Chief, please!"
Chu Yang followed the fat old man out of the main hall. Nalan Yanran began to arrange many things. After the elders' meeting ended, all the elders left, leaving only some young female elders.
These people usually have a good relationship with Nalan Yanran; they are close friends and occasionally sit together to watch TV series on Black Tower.
As Nalan Yanran abandoned her sect leader's airs and sat down with everyone, the female elders immediately started chattering.
"Sect Master, I heard that you and our Chief are childhood sweethearts?" A female elder's eyes lit up.
Another person said, "I've heard... that the Chief once pursued the Sect Master?"
Another person glared and said, "Nonsense! It was clearly the sect leader who pursued the chief disciple!" (End of Chapter)
Chapter 336 Soul Emperor: Just call me Little Heaven! The Soul Clan's humble stance!
Nalan Yanran looked troubled. Ever since Chu Yang returned, these guys had been surrounding her all day, asking her all sorts of questions, and almost every question revolved around the chief.
"Look at you all, so carefree! You can't even walk past him, can you?" Nalan Yanran glared at him, looking just like a little tiger guarding its food.
A voluptuous and alluring female elder chuckled and said, "It's more than just being unable to walk; my legs were practically weak just now!"
Her words immediately elicited a burst of giggles, and everyone started talking at once, becoming increasingly unrestrained and their words gradually becoming more explicit.
After a moment, Nalan Yanran could no longer bear it and said sternly, "Don't you have anything better to do?"
"Everyone, go to the Deacon Hall and receive an Elder-level mission!"
"Anyone who fails the mission will be penalized with three months' worth of resources!"
But her words did not frighten the women; instead, they laughed even harder.
A female elder leaned close to Nalan Yanran's ear and said sweetly, "Sect Master, please rest assured, we will not compete with you for the top spot!"
"We know we are not worthy of the Chief, we only hope that when the Sect Master and the Chief get married in the future, they will not forget their sisters and let us be their concubines!"
"Don't worry, little sister, I know a lot more than that! And I can bring you and your husband endless fun!"
Nalan Yanran nodded, quite pleased with the first part of her words, and her expression softened considerably.
But upon hearing the rest, her pretty face turned both dark and red, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Get out!"
The female elders stopped teasing Nalan Yanran and scattered like birds and beasts, laughing.
Once she was alone in the main hall, Nalan Yanran sat on a chair, looking distressed.
She knew perfectly well that although the female elders' words were seemingly nonsensical, they were actually trying to provoke her into taking the initiative so that Chu Yang wouldn't be snatched away by outsiders.
But then again…
I've always been very proactive all these years!
Whether the guy was oblivious to romance or deliberately pretending not to see it, he remained unmoved.
She suddenly remembered a suggestion from a female elder, and muttered with a blush, "How about... we make it a fait accompli first?"
But then, Nalan Yanran covered her face and shook her head, looking ashamed.
What am I thinking?
Chu Yang is the strongest person on the continent. Using force is unrealistic, and drugging him is even more unrealistic!
and many more……
No matter how much I think about it, I'm still stuck on the idea of making it a fait accompli.

"The chief's methods are truly admirable!"
Elder Jin looked at the massive spatial teleportation portal with a sigh.
Chu Yang constructed a long-distance directional teleportation array in less than a quarter of an hour and forcibly connected it to the Pill Tower without any coordinates.
Not far away, another teleportation array has been completed and is used to connect to the Burning Flame Valley.
Chu Yang smiled without saying a word. Wherever he went, Pangu would record the coordinates and spatial nodes.
Even if the Burning Flame Valley and the Pill Tower haven't prepared the teleportation array plates yet, he can still forcibly open a spatial passage through the spatial nodes.
Afterwards, all that is needed is for Burning Flame Valley and Pill Tower to complete the construction of the teleportation array, and the spatial passage will be completely stabilized.
Moreover, the spatial passage he created possesses absolute stability, making it impossible for it to encounter a spatial storm due to spatial gaps, as happened when Xiao Yan traveled to Zhongzhou.
For the next two weeks, Chu Yang completely relaxed, putting cultivation and alchemy out of his mind, acting as if he were just an ordinary person.
Nalan Yanran also put aside her sect affairs and spent most of her time by his side. The two of them traveled almost all over the Jia Ma Empire and the surrounding areas, enjoying the scenery along the way.
But this caused Xiao Xiao a lot of trouble. Nalan Yanran asked her to take charge of the sect, which kept this half-baked girl extremely busy.
Unfortunately, Gu He was learning from Old Monster Lin, and she also had to manage the affairs of the medicine hall. If it weren't for Elder Jin's assistance, the sect would probably have been in chaos long ago.
However, under these circumstances, Xiao Xiao became increasingly adept at managing the sect and grew rapidly.
Although he is still immature and occasionally childish, he has lived for over a hundred years and his skills and overall perspective are quite good.
Yunlan Mountain, a small courtyard on the back mountain.
"Are you leaving already?" Nalan Yanran looked at Chu Yang with a reluctant expression.
Chu Yang nodded and said, "Let's go check on the Soul Clan first, and then there are some other things to take care of."
"If Aunt Yun and Brother Monkey still don't respond, I will go and find them."
Nalan Yanran pursed her lips, then suddenly stepped forward, stood on tiptoe, and lightly pecked Chu Yang's lips before turning around and saying:
"Let's go! I'll come find you once Xiaoxiao takes over the sect!"
Chu Yang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and chuckled before disappearing into the spatial wormhole.
Nalan Yanran suddenly turned around and looked at the spot where he had been standing, looking somewhat lost and forlorn.
Chu Yang naturally knew Nalan Yanran's thoughts. It wasn't that he was unmoved by her presence, nor did he look down on her.
Rather, he was very clear that his footsteps would never stop on the Dou Qi Continent.
Compared to him, Nalan Yanran's current strength is too weak, and she is far behind him.
If Chu Yang were to respond to Nalan Yanran now, he would inevitably have reservations in the future.
Rather than that, it would be better to give Nalan Yanran enough pressure and motivation. If she can catch up, she can also occupy a place in the vast world where powerful people are everywhere, and Chu Yang will no longer need to worry so much.
Conversely, it would be better to let their relationship end there.
…………
Zhongzhou, the Burial Sky Mountains.
This is the battlefield where the Soul Clan and the Xiao Clan once fought a great war. It was after that battle that the Xiao Clan began to decline, eventually becoming an insignificant little family in the Jia Ma Empire in the Northwest Region.
Because ancient powerful figures once perished here, people often come here to explore, hoping to obtain the inheritance of a powerful figure or gain some benefits.
However, in the past two weeks, the Burial Sky Mountain Range has been sealed off by the Soul Clan, and no one is allowed to enter, leaving many people who often come to try their luck angry but dare not speak out.
When Chu Yang arrived at this place, he immediately sensed more than a dozen powerful auras, all of which belonged to Dou Sheng experts.
With a flash, Chu Yang quietly appeared in a mountain cave. The old man who was meditating cross-legged deep in the cave suddenly opened his eyes and was terrified when he saw the figure that had appeared beside him at some unknown time.
However, he immediately recognized the person who had come, and quickly suppressed his urge to attack, saying respectfully, "Welcome, Emperor Chu!"
"Emperor Chu?" Chu Yang was taken aback, then shook his head and chuckled, "Are you flattering me, or are you trying to kill me with flattery?"
The old man's face turned pale, and he waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "Emperor Chu, please don't misunderstand. Everyone in the entire Central Continent addresses you in this way!"
"Since the ancient times, you are the only powerful person to be revered as an emperor!"
Chu Yang was slightly surprised. The Yunlan Sect was no longer isolated from the world and could obtain information from all over the continent in a timely manner.
Nalan Yanran didn't mention this to him at all; that girl is probably laughing to herself behind his back!
Compared to those prestigious imperial titles, "Emperor of Chu" sounded rather low-class...
However, Chu Yang also knew that being addressed as an emperor was already the greatest respect people in the Dou Qi Continent could show.
"What do you mean by sending an invitation from your Soul Clan, yet asking me to come to the Burial Sky Mountains?"
Chu Yang narrowed his eyes. "Could it be that you're trying to imply that the Yunlan Sect will become the next Xiao Clan?"
The old man turned even paler, almost kneeling on the ground, and said in a terrified voice, "No, no! It's just that the Soul Realm doesn't have a fixed entrance, but there's a spatial rift here that allows you to enter the Soul Realm!"
Chu Yang nodded. That was easy to understand. After all, the Soul Clan had offended too many people throughout history, so they had to be cautious.
Moreover, it is reasonable that the Soul Clan and the Xiao Clan left a spatial rift here during the great battle between them, allowing Soul Clan experts to retreat or provide support.
"In that case, lead the way!" Chu Yang waved his hand, no longer making things difficult for the old man.
