Information gathering

The problem is now solved. It's time to start training, learning, and learn more about the sect. Surprisingly, Wei Yuan entered the sect without any preparation. He did this because the easiest way to learn about something is to experience it in his opinion. Thus, Wei Yuan just entered like this.

In these few days, he analized the sect structure. Outer disciples, inner disciples and core disciples. There are also elders and a sect master. This is the structure of the sect. Now, what he wanted to know is who is the strongest and who will be his enemy and who will be his friend. He wanted to analize the strong and build his own faction.

The best place to do this is the home of inner disciples and core disciples. Only weaklings lives in the outer circle. Thus, Wei Yuan just decided to avoid it, but how can he avoid the place where he currently lives and how can he enter the inner circle and core circle?

He can't do that. Only inner disciples and core disciples can enter. Outer disciples can't enter even if they have a good reason to do that. Thus, Wei Yuan decided to ask others about the current situation inside the inner circle and outer circle. Luckily, he lives under the same roofs with someone who can get access to every information inside the sect. That was none other than the princess.

Wei Yuan walked out of his room and kocked on the door.

"Princess? Are you here? I would like to talk with you if it's possible."

The princess allowed Wei Yuan to came inside. He knew this negotiation is going to be hard. The princess will try everything in order to make him nervous.

"What brings you here today Wei Yuan?"

"I want to know more about the sect. Especially about the inner circle and core circle. Who are the ones worth mentioning inside the sect, something about their past. I want to even know about their current cultivation stage if it's possible. Of course, I know this will not be free."

"Ho? You want this kind of accurate information. This information is hard to get even with the power of the imperial family. We don't have much influence inside the Tranquil Dragon sect. Thus, my only way was to pay a huge sum and get the information this way. I wonder how can you compensate me? This information is originally something I want to keep a secret if possible."

It was a lie. The princess lied. Obtaining information as a member of the imperial family was a piece of cake for her. Many people wanted to obtain her favor and trading information was the easiest way to obtain this favor. Sadly, only someone with this kind of background can do this. Wei Yuan wanted to do the same, he was even willing to pay a few spirit stones, but everyone was super greedy. They knew the value of these secret informations.

Of course Wei Yuan knew that the princess is not cheap, but he already planned everything. A plan to get information for free. It was time to use his new chess piece and control the princess with it.

"I can tell you why my little brother Wei Yun is afraid of me and I can also tell you why they think that I'm dead. This is enough as a compensation right?"

"Hey, why do you think I care with this? Wait! How do you even know that I know about this? You- you eavesdropped on me. You actually dared to do something like this."

"Do you want the information or not? You also tried to investigate my background. Don't play Saint in front of me."

"Okay okay, I get it. Tell me about what you did in the Wei family and I can tell you everything about the inner circle and outer circle. Now first tell me why Wei Yun is so scared of you and why your family thinks that you are dead."

There is a possibility that the princess will not tell him anything about the sect after she received all the information, but it was okay for Wei Yuan. That's just one more reason to "erase" the princess later. Wei Yuan already planned everything. He will get the benefits even if the princess breaks the promise between the two of them.

"I bullied Wei Yun when he was a little child. His cultivation progress slowed down as a result. His parents tried to poison me after that. I almost died, but somehow survived. One of my servants saved me and I secretly left the family."

The princess called her bodyguard after this. He was the man who looked like an assassin. Full of black clothes. The princess told him to investigate the Wei family again. Doing this in front of Wei Yuan who was a member of the Wei family. This princess is too arrogant.

"I'm still a member of the Wei family. You know that right?"

Wei Yuan pretended to be angry. It was all an act to convince the princess. Of course Wei Yuan prepared for this already. He already sent a letter to the current family head of the Wei family. Everyone inside the Wei family will say the same story even if the bodyguard of the princess asks them.

"What are you afraid of? You didn't lie to me right? Relax I will tell everything I know about the inner circle and outer circle just as I promised."

Said the princess. She told Wei Yuan every information she knew about the inner and core circles of the sect. The strength of the strongest inner disciples, the strength of the core disciples. The princess even knew about their personalities and backgrounds. The information she gathered was very accurate. Wei Yuan walked away with a big smile on his face.

This is how Wei Yuan got accurate information for free. The princess gained absolutely nothing and she will never know that.
