Master Yujing of Mount Tianzhu.
This name was not particularly famous within the cultivation circles of the Jiangnan region. He was certainly not the most prominent master of sorcery in the area. However, Dongfang Yin had heard from his elders more than once just how unfathomable Master Yujing’s cultivation truly was. He belonged to a completely different level than the so-called masters and adepts found in the secular world. Even the Dongfang family, who ruled over Jiangnan, addressed him with the title of "Master."
"Master Yujing shares a profound history with our family," Dongfang Fu began slowly, dredging up a memory from the past. "During the Qing Dynasty, our family ran a textile business that held a near-monopoly over the industry across most of Jiangnan. Even the Emperor officially designated the Dongfang family as the 'Number One Textile' firm. Back then, our immense wealth drew the covetous eyes of certain occult practitioners."
"Cultivation is driven by wealth, companions, methods, and land. With wealth being the foremost requirement, it is clear that cultivators have a massive need for money. We were targeted by the most powerful dark cultivator in Jiangnan and were nearly wiped out, but it was Master Yujing who intervened, killing that dark practitioner and ensuring the survival of our lineage."
