Chapter 508  Shocking The Pavilion Mistress

Zhi Xi accompanied him with bubbling enthusiasm, eager to show off the wonders of their sect\'s star cluster.

On the other hand, Chu Yang begrudgingly followed along, his expression clouded with jealousy and annoyance. He couldn\'t shake off the nagging worry that leaving Wang Jian and Zhi Xi alone might lead to something intimate between them.

As they wandered the vibrant streets of the planet, Zhi Xi pointed out various landmarks and attractions, her excitement palpable. "Isn\'t this place incredible, Wang Jian?" she exclaimed, gesturing at the bustling marketplaces and ornate temples that dotted the landscape.

Wang Jian nodded in agreement, taking in the sights with quiet admiration. "It\'s truly remarkable," he replied, a hint of awe in his voice.

Chu Yang, trailing behind them with a scowl, muttered under his breath, "Remarkable or not, I don\'t see why we have to babysit him around."

Ignoring Chu Yang\'s sour mood, Zhi Xi continued to chatter animatedly, regaling Wang Jian with stories of their sect\'s history and traditions. Wang Jian listened attentively, absorbing every detail with genuine interest.

After half a day of exploration, they finally arrived at an open hall where Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan awaited them. Wang Jian took his seat ahead of Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan, his posture relaxed yet attentive.

As the discussion on the laws of array formations commenced, Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan wasted no time in posing a question that tested the limits of even the most seasoned cultivators.

"Wang Jian," she began, her tone measured and challenging, "imagine you are faced with the task of synchronizing three highly intricate arrays, each with its own unique energy patterns and frequencies. How would you reconcile their conflicting harmonics to achieve perfect synchronization?"

Wang Jian\'s brows furrowed slightly as he considered the complex scenario presented to him. However, he didn\'t falter.

With unwavering confidence, he began to dissect the intricacies of the problem, his mind racing to formulate a solution that would satisfy Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan\'s exacting standards.

His response was met with a thoughtful nod from Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan, impressed by his insightful approach. But she wasn\'t finished yet.

"And what if," she continued, her voice taking on an even more challenging edge, "you were tasked with designing an array formation capable of withstanding an onslaught of divine lightning, each bolt striking with varying frequencies and intensities? How would you ensure the array\'s stability under such extreme conditions?"

Wang Jian\'s eyes narrowed in concentration as he grappled with the daunting challenge presented to him.

He knew that the key lay in harnessing the fundamental principles of array formations and channeling them into a cohesive defensive structure.

With practiced precision, he began to outline his strategy, weaving together a tapestry of spatial manipulation and energy redirection to create a shield capable of repelling even the most ferocious divine lightning.

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan listened intently, her expression betraying no hint of emotion as she absorbed Wang Jian\'s analysis.

It was a profound inquiry, one that delved deep into the very essence of array formation theory.

Yet, Wang Jian approached it with the same calm confidence that had defined his previous responses.

After a moment of silence, Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan began to offer her insights, her words measured and precise.

But before she could finish, Wang Jian interjected with a question of his own, one that had been gnawing at him for some time.

"Pavilion Mistress," he began, his voice steady, "what are your thoughts on the utilization of dimensional entanglement within array formations to create interlocking defensive barriers capable of repelling multidimensional attacks?" Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan\'s eyes widened slightly in surprise at the complexity of Wang Jian\'s inquiry. It was a topic that few dared to explore, delving into the very fabric of spatial manipulation and dimensional manipulation.

Yet, Wang Jian approached it with a confidence that belied his years.

As the exchange continued, question after question, Wang Jian and Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan delved deeper into the mysteries of array formations.

With each passing query, Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan grew more impressed by Wang Jian\'s profound understanding and innovative thinking.

It became evident that Wang Jian\'s insights surpassed those of even the most seasoned practitioners, earning him the respect and admiration of Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan.

As the discussion drew to a close, Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan regarded Wang Jian with newfound respect.

"You possess a rare gift, Wang Jian," she remarked, her voice tinged with admiration. "Your insights into the laws of array formations are truly extraordinary."

Wang Jian accepted her praise with humility, a modest smile gracing his lips.

"Thank you, Pavilion Mistress," he replied graciously. "It has been an honor to engage in this discussion with you."

After the intense discussion on array formations concluded, Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan turned her gaze towards her personal disciple, Zhi Xi, with a proud smile. "Zhi Xi," she said, her voice filled with admiration, "you have brought a remarkable talent to our doorstep. Wang Jian\'s insights into the laws of array formations are on par with my own, and in some aspects, he even surpasses me."

Zhi Xi beamed with pride at the praise from her esteemed master. "Thank you, Pavilion Mistress," she replied, her voice tinged with excitement. "I knew Wang Jian possessed exceptional talent, but to hear you praise him in such a manner... it\'s truly an honor."

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan then turned her attention back to Wang Jian, her expression thoughtful. "Wang Jian," she began, her voice carrying a note of seriousness, "I have a proposition for you. Would you consider becoming an elder of the Heavenly Jade Pavilion and overseeing the department of array formations? Your expertise would be invaluable in teaching our disciples and advancing our knowledge in this field."

Wang Jian\'s eyes widened in surprise at the unexpected offer. Becoming an elder of the Heavenly Jade Pavilion was a position of great honor and responsibility, one that he had never imagined he would be offered. He bowed respectfully to Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan before speaking, "Pavilion Mistress, I am deeply honored by your offer. I will consider it carefully and give you my answer soon."

However, before Wang Jian could respond further, Chu Yang stepped forward, his expression tense with anger. "Pavilion Mistress," he interjected, his voice laced with frustration, "with all due respect, you cannot simply ignore the rules of our sect. Wang Jian is a man, and men are not permitted to join the Heavenly Jade Pavilion. No exception, not even for you."

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan\'s brows furrowed at Chu Yang\'s outburst. She was well aware of the rules of the sect, but she couldn\'t ignore the extraordinary talent that Wang Jian possessed. "Chu Yang," she replied sternly, "I am fully aware of the rules. However, I believe that Wang Jian\'s talents are too valuable to be dismissed based on outdated traditions."

Chu Yang crossed his arms over his chest, his expression defiant. "But Pavilion Mistress, if you make an exception for Wang Jian, what about the precedent it sets? What about the other disciples who have followed the rules all their lives? Will their efforts be in vain?"

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan sighed inwardly, frustrated by Chu Yang\'s stubbornness. She understood his concerns, but she couldn\'t let Wang Jian slip through their fingers. "Chu Yang," she said firmly, "the Heavenly Jade Pavilion has already made exceptions in the past. You yourself are an exception, given your possession of the Heavenly Jade Emperor Meridians."

Chu Yang\'s expression softened slightly at the mention of his own exception. He knew that he owed his position in the sect to the unique meridians he possessed, which were said to be a mark of the founder\'s bloodline. However, he couldn\'t help but feel uneasy about making another exception for Wang Jian.

"But Pavilion Mistress," Chu Yang persisted, "we cannot simply disregard the rules whenever it suits us. If you wish to accept Wang Jian into the Heavenly Jade Pavilion, then it should be put to a vote of all the elders. Only if two-thirds of the elders agree should he be allowed to stay."

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan nodded thoughtfully at Chu Yang\'s suggestion. It was a fair compromise, one that would allow the elders to weigh in on the matter. "Very well," she agreed, "I will convene a meeting of the elders to discuss this matter further. In the meantime, Wang Jian will be granted temporary residence within the sect."

Wang Jian stared at Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan gratefully. "Thank you, Pavilion Mistress," he said sincerely, "I am truly honored by your consideration."

Wang Jian became serious with a determined gleam in his eyes as he addressed Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan. "Pavilion Mistress," he began, his voice steady, "I have one more request, if I may."

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan regarded him with curiosity, gesturing for him to continue.

"I would like to request an audience with the Third Elder," Wang Jian continued, "to discuss the profound laws of alchemy. I believe her insights would be invaluable in furthering my understanding of this field."

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan considered his request for a moment before nodding in agreement. "Very well, Wang Jian," she replied, "I will arrange for you to meet with the Third Elder at your earliest convenience."
