Isn't this just a new addition to Young Master's Harem?

Su Meiling sat on the highest seat inside the clan leader's room. It used to be her husband's, but she accepted this position to avenge his unjustified death.
She stared at the elders, who followed her husband to his last breath and calmly observed their expression.
Elder Hengjun is an elderly who possessed the early stage of Sky Profound Realm, but due to his old age, his fighting prowess isn't the best. Still, his wise mind proved effective for the Grandwake Clan's development.
Elder Hengmei is a middle-aged woman and half-step Sky Profound Realm. She used to be an independent profound practitioner and married into the Grandwake Clan, but like Su Meiling, her husband died in a battle.
And finally, Elder Hengkui. He belonged to the neutral party and later joined Su Meiling because her policy and work ethic for the Grandwake Clan won him over.
Like Elder Hengmei, Elder Hengkui is also a half-step Sky Profound Realm.
"Clan Leader, is it true that Heimu Qingya has died?" Elder Hengkui asked with a troubled expression.
Su Meiling supported her chin with one hand and returned, "Are you questioning my words, Elder Hengkui?"
"No, no, I just want to confirm the truth." Elder Hengkui raised his arms in defeat. Although Su Meiling's cultivation base is lower than his, she has enough strength to beat him.
Su Meiling closed her eyes and explained, "Ling'er went to the back of the mountain a while ago. She got kidnapped by the Blackwood Stronghold's people."
Gasp!
"Is she okay?" Elder Hengmei panicked.
"We should search for Ling'er!" Elder Hengjun finally opened his mouth.
Su Meiling waved her hand, "Calm down, you two. Fortunately, a young man appeared and rescued Ling'er."
"On top of that, that young man even wiped the kidnappers and Heimu Qingya himself."
"W-What?" The three elders were shocked.
"Shocked?" Su Meiling smiled at them. "That young man's strength is like a bottomless abyss. I couldn't even sense the depth of it."
"And he has a deep confidence not to put Seven Stars Divine Palace in his eyes. Before you judge his confidence as arrogance, he even left us a chance to collaborate."
"That's right, he extended an olive branch to us."
Su Meiling's explanation sounds like a dream scenario in the three elders' ears. However, they knew Su Meiling's character, and she wouldn't like something this serious.
"Does this young man come from two other superpowers?" The three elders have a thoughtful look on their faces.
"No, he's not from three superpowers." Su Meiling answered calmly. "He came from outside of Azure Cloud Continent..."
"..." The three elders couldn't believe their senses for a moment. Like, it's too good to be true.
A silence suddenly ensued in the clan leader's room.
Su Meiling inwardly relaxed when seeing their reaction. Although she felt a bit dirty to use Yu Long for her agenda, she couldn't let Su Wangji's faction gain more advantage.
After telling about Heimu Qingya's death earlier, Su Meiling felt the elders' reactions were inappropriate. She was sure Su Wangji and those cowardly bastards would stage a coup. It's just a matter of time.
As the three elders thought this was too good to be true, they gazed at Su Meiling deeply.
"There must be a catch in this cooperation, right?" Elder Hengmei pointed out.
Su Meiling naturally nodded as she didn't bother to lie, "Indeed."
"He wanted us to agree on his terms."
"As for what kind of terms he laid on the table, we must visit him for further discussions first."
"This is good... Grand Elder wouldn't see this coming." Elder Hengkui rubbed his chin. "Clan Leader, the young man should have told you where to find him, right?"
Su Meiling nodded again, "Yes. He said he would be waiting at the Thousand Weapons Association."
"Thousand Weapons Association..." Elder Hengjun mumbled to himself. "Is it the castle on the west of Grandwake Mountain?"
"I've sent a couple of people there, but all I got is that the people there are very mysterious."
"However, that's not the main point. Thousand Weapons Association is a castle of artifact makers, so they could make amazing weapons to assist our Grandwake Clan."
"How good are we talking here?" Elder Hengkui inquired with a curious look.
"Top-notch Artifact." Elder Hengjun answered immediately.
"I have never seen such beautiful craftsmanship before. And there was a rumor that the Association Leader of Thousand Weapons Association is a Divine Blacksmith, who could create Sovereign Profound Artifact!"
"Of course, rumor is rumor. I haven't confirmed this fact."
"Sovereign Profound Artifacts." Even Su Meiling skipped her breath upon hearing this. "How could I've never heard about this?"
Elder Henjun helplessly smiled and continued with a low voice, "Thousand Weapons Association did their business discreetly. Only a handful of qualified people in the Azure Cloud Continent could experience their service."
"Now that I thought about it, it's within reasonable scope if they come from the outside, as I've never heard of them in my entire life." Elder Hengjun has lived over a century, after all.
"It's decided then, we will visit the Thousand Weapons Association." Su Meiling doesn't give them a chance to give up. And the three elders could only nod their heads dumbly.
"Okay, you may leave the room."
After the three elders left, Su Meiling slumped on the Clan Leader's seat and rubbed her eyes slowly. She felt a wetness from her overflowing emotion because her hellish torture finally come to an end.
Su Meiling rubbed the unique-looking key attached to the silver chain on her fair neck, "Husband, the Grandwake Clan's crisis will be over soon."
"Your sacrifice for me and Ling'er won't be in vain..."
"Don't worry, I will also avenge you." She added with rich killing intent.
...
At night, five individuals left the Grandwake Clan.
"Mom, are we going to visit Big Brother Yu Long?" Su Ling'er asked while rubbing her eyes. She was sleepy but also excited to meet her handsome prince again.
The three elders looked at Su Meiling weirdly.
Su Meiling smiled helplessly and answered, "Yes, we will visit him tonight."
"Be a good girl, and stay quiet, okay? We can't let those bad guys know we are going out."
"Okay..." Su Ling'er nodded and whispered while making a playful shoo gesture.
Su Meiling sighed and glanced at the Grandwake Clan. Hopefully, Yu Long won't ask for too much.
Although Su Meiling wished her hellish torture to end, she couldn't watch the Grandwake Clan that her late husband painstakingly protected with his life fall.
They moved in the darkness of night, reaching the west of Grandwake Mountain quickly.
"Where is it?" Elder Hengkui frowned a little as he gazed at an empty mountainside. Yes, he couldn't find any castle that Elder Hengjun mentioned in the evening.
"Your view is quite shallow for a man who lived near my age." Elder Hengjun chuckled in amusement.
"Hehe, Grandpa Hengkui is old~!" Su Ling'er giggled, joining Elder Hengjun.
Elder Hengkui's mouth twitched, but he couldn't do anything about this situation.
Elder Hengmei shook her head. It was always like this when they brought the little princess of Grandwake Clan out.
Thankfully, Su Ling'er is safer with them than the Grandwake Clan.
Elder Hengjun coughed and explained briefly, "The Thousand Weapons Association is a mysterious organization. If their headquarters could be 'easily' found, it is no different than inviting demise to their front door."
"Illusion..." Su Meiling has superb mental power. So, she could sense something was off.
Then, a white-clothed woman with an ice-like presence unexpectedly appeared before them. "Five of you have been invited into the castle." She said with a poker face.
And the reality was 'seemingly' torn apart.
The night sky and surrounding mountainside crumbled, revealing a grandiose-looking castle.
"Wow~!" Su Ling'er stared at the massive castle with glimmering eyes.
Meanwhile, Su Meiling and the three elders were stunned beyond belief.
It was in front of them the whole freaking time!
'At least one of them can sense the array.' Chu Yueli stared at Su Meiling silently. She was confused when Yu Long told her there would be visitors later.
But isn't this just a new addition to Young Master's Harem?
Of course, Chu Yueli is talking about Su Meiling.
'A mother at that.' Chu Yueli noticed the similarity between Su Meiling and Su Ling'er. 'Young Master's taste is quite suspicious.'
"Follow me." After saying that, Chu Yueli turned and walked to the castle.
Su Meiling and the elders glanced at each other before nodding in agreement. They followed Chu Yueli but soon discovered Su Ling'er already run toward the castle first.
"BIG BROTHER, LING'ER COME TO PLAY~!!"
