True Monarch Youming chuckled and said, "Master Jiu, Young Master Tan, you two are joking. Our Youming Island has always warmly welcomed cultivators from the outside world. All guests are honored here; if they wish to settle down, I would treat them like family. How could I possibly set harsh conditions simply for providing a place to stay?"
Though True Monarch Youming’s words sounded generous and magnanimous, Chen Xuan knew well that these were mere pleasantries. The real terms would never be stated outright.
Qiu Feng, adept at reading the room, voiced the desires and thoughts of the three big shots on their behalf. With a sycophantic smile, he said, "Setting aside Daoist Chen for a moment, just as Master Jiu said, these four immortals possess beauty and grace rarely seen in the Three Realms. Having unfortunately been drawn into the Realm of Dark Souls and losing all their cultivation and soul power, they are now in a unique world where everything depends on Dark Soul power. They will inevitably be coveted by all manner of vile and wicked scoundrels. Fortunately, our Island Master is kind and benevolent. If these four ladies are willing to accept his protection and select one among them to become his Daoist partner, everything will go smoothly, and they will be guaranteed eternal peace."
