'W-Who is this rude woman...?!'
Tian Yun was beyond confused.
Before she could say anything, the strange woman had already jumped down from the railing, now strolling toward her.
''?!''
Tian Yun's cheek was stroked by the woman's slender hand. She wanted to dodge, but her instinct somehow prevented her from moving away; it was as if she didn't want to displease the person in front of her.
''Hm... you seem fine. That's good.''
''Who are you??''
''The person who cured your disease and your new master—Kierra Scarlett Aspenova,'' Kierra said. ''Be honored. I don't take disciples often.''
The latter half naturally went over Tian Yun's head. ''Y-You cured my disease?''
''Yes.''
Tian Yun was skeptical. The cultivation base that she could feel from this Kierra woman was only at the beginning of the Foundation Establishment stage. However, that would be impossible since no amateur cultivator could make Tian Yun lose track of them like earlier.
''I—''
''Master!''
Before Tian Yun could voice her doubt, she was immediately hugged to the ground.
''Master! You finally woke up!'' Yu Chen exclaimed, arms wrapping around Tian Yun's slender body tightly. ''How do you feel, master?!''
Seeing her disciple like this, Tian Yun couldn't help but hug Yu Chen back.
''I'm good, I'm totally good, Yu Chen.'' She said, smiling softly. ''Rather, I still see you every day, aren't I?''
''You couldn't even talk like this!''
''I suppose... I'm back, Yu Chen. Truly.''
'I see why they call this the White Lotus Sect now if the sect leader looked like this.'
Kierra turned around to look at the scenery outside while waiting for the two to have their reunion.
After forcing the Lightning Tiger Sect to sign a magical contract, which basically could be boiled down to giving Kierra the highest power in the sect, the archwizard let Cosmos explore the library of that sect freely until around half an hour ago.
It certainly took quite a while because the library was significantly more extensive than the White Lotus Sect's. When they finished the library, it was already morning, so they decided to come back here. Cosmos went back to its place to properly digest all the 'delicious' information, as it stated.
Kierra and Yu Chen announced to the people that they had successfully captured the Lightning Tiger Sect, which was proven by presenting the sect leader Kang Jiang's seal. Since Kierra decided to establish her new Crimson Tower with the White Lotus Sect selected as her HQ according to Yu Chen's request, it didn't matter if the people thought the White Lotus Sect captured the other one.
''Kierra, is the new 'tower' that you plan to establish just a metaphor?''
''No. It will be a real tower.''
''Where would you put it, then?''
''Wherever is fine. I can build it in seconds.''
''Then... can I ask you one thing?''
''Speak.''
''I want you to take all of us as your tower's members. I believe in the potentials of mana, I believe... it will bring us to a new height.''
''Fufu. You are certainly correct about the latter half.''
''With that, I also want you to make us the second in order after you.''
''That you lot will have to prove yourselves.''
''Of course, if we can receive teachings from you.''
'What ambitious disciples I have here.'
Kierra was amused. Back in the old world, her disciples weren't bad, but none showed as much enthusiasm as this woman. Maybe it was the difference in the mindset of the two worlds' inhibitors.
In any case, Kierra had now achieved her temporary goal of being somewhat 'settled' in this world. Now, she wanted to take a quick break to recover her mana, as well as do some leisure work like building a new tower, which should be around a hundred floors in total, and make a device that could awaken mana perception for her new disciples. She certainly didn't want to hug people like how she did to Yu Chen and Tian Yun.
While Kierra was lost in her thoughts, Yu Chen finished explaining things to her master—from how she met Kierra to how they captured the Lightning Tiger Sect in its entirety.
( ;ↀ⌓ↀ)
Tian Yun was speechless.
As much as she wanted to take her time processing what Yu Chen just said, it was the truth that Kierra had cured her disease. So she got up and walked in front of the archwizard.
''As the sect leader of the White Lotus, I sincerely thank you.'' She bowed. ''Without you, I'm afraid I had to leave my precious disciples alone back then.''
''No problem.'' Kierra responded simply.
At that moment, Yu Chen came up behind Kierra; her face looked noticeably happier than usual.
''Master, you haven't seen the wonder of magic.'' She said. ''If it's not too much to ask, can you demonstrate for her, Kierra?''
''Hm... alright,'' Kierra replied. ''Come with me.''
Kierra thought it was a good opportunity to raise the new Crimson Tower.
So the three took off to the sky, flying straight to Qinling Peak, where Kierra agreed to put the tower nearby according to Yu Chen's wishes.
While flying, Tian Yun couldn't help but smile excitedly. It had been so long since she could soar to the sky so freely like this. And it was all thanks to this strange woman...
A deep respect for Kierra bloomed inside the sect leader.
Eventually, the three reached the foot of the Qinling Peak. They took a good half an hour to survey the area before Kierra decided on a specific piece of land. The quality of the land, etc., didn't really matter. For Kierra, the most important thing was the scenery.
Ever since she was a child, she had always had a profound appreciation for beautiful sceneries, and this world was undoubtedly pretty in her eyes. She especially liked the White Lotus Sect at night.
Nevertheless, after calculating for a while, Kierra began to channel her mana. The element she would be utilizing this time is earth, more precisely, advanced earth magic with accurate mana control.
As Kierra aimed her hand forward, a sophisticated golden-brown aura escaped her body. Her robe, hair, and hat fluttered as the result of strong mana swirling around her position.
VROOM—!!
With a gentle snap of the archwizard's finger, the earth itself rumbled.
''W-What?!'' Tian Yun exclaimed.
She vaguely senses Kierra moving her energy, but this...
From the ground, a pitch-black tower spurted upward rapidly, sending shockwaves out to the surroundings. In no time, it had pierced the clouds, standing proud like its owner herself.
''So this is the Crimson Tower...'' Yu Chen marveled.
''Isn't this black...?'' Tian Yun interjected.
''Well...''
''A pure red tower would look ugly,'' Kierra answered instead.
'Besides, there are still some red touches if one looks closely enough.'
Kierra nodded. It wasn't half-bad. Tian Yun seemed impressed, too.
With this, she could now officially start operating this tower. Kierra was excited. It had indeed been a while since she had taught students from the ground up.
