Chapter 19: Today, You Bring Honor to the Sect, Tomorrow, the Sect Will Honor You
"Could the Moon Embrace Sect rise again and return from the ashes?" Zhou Elder's expression turned grim as he stood on the Flying Boat of the Peach Blossom Sect.
Elder Wu contemplated, "Xiao Ling'er has likely joined with her skills, but at such a young age, possessing such strength and temperament, she is indeed a talented individual. However, before a talent matures, they are merely talented."
"We can find an opportunity..."
Elder Zhou nodded, "That's true."
"But I'm being overly concerned. What if she does mature? The sect has never relied on a single person. Who among the five elders of the Moon Embrace Sect is weak? Yet, the Moon Embrace Sect remains at the lower end of the third-rate sects."
"The Moon Embrace Sect has few disciples, and they are of varying levels. This year, we only recruited Xiao Ling'er. Even if she matures, it will only ensure the sect's survival."
"Perhaps, not even that."
"What do you mean, Elder Zhou?"
"Human nature."
"As cultivators, we prioritize strength. With Xiao Ling'er's talent, it may not take many years before the Moon Embrace Sect can no longer provide her with any assistance."
"At that time, who can say for sure whether she will still care about the sect?"
"That makes sense," Elder Wu nodded in agreement.
However, both of them were well aware that these words were merely self-comforting, a form of self-deception.
Everything was pinned on 'possibility,' but who could predict the future?
"If there's a chance, we should still..."
Elder Wu wiped his neck gently.
"Yes!"
"..."
"..."
"Let's return to the sect."
Lin Fan waved his hand, signaling the group to head back.
Along the way, he spoke softly, "You all saw what happened."
"On the Immortal Martial Continent, strength has always been revered."
"If one has the strength, even if they slap a disciple in front of their elders, the elders can only swallow their anger. But if one lacks strength, today's outcome would be reversed."
The disciples nodded in deep agreement, and a sense of eagerness to become stronger spread among them.
Meanwhile, the seven lucky beasts gazed at Xiao Ling'er with envy in their eyes.
Lin Fan continued, "Today, we have the five elders of these third-rate sects standing at the forefront, shielding us from the winds and rain."
"But elders are also human. They age, they get injured, and they die. There are countless people stronger than them."
"If one day, they grow old, if they are no longer here, or if their life force is exhausted, what then?"
The crowd's hearts sank as they fell into deep thought.
Xiao Ling'er took a deep breath and said, "Today, the sect shields us from the winds and rain. Tomorrow, we shall shield the sect, and shield the future generations!"
"Well said!"
Lin Fan smiled, "The sect's heritage is passed down through generations, and this is how it should be."
"Generation after generation, the elders selflessly guide the younger generation, and the younger generation has its own mission."
"Today, you bring honor to the elders and the sect."
"In the future, the sect will honor you!"
With a thunderous rumble, the disciples' minds buzzed, and goosebumps spread from head to toe.
"I hope that one day, you will become elders, shielding the sect, suppressing injustices, and clearing all obstacles for future generations."
"I truly look forward to that day."
Lin Fan spoke from the heart.
Having accepted the role of sect master, he was determined to shoulder the responsibility.
However, the healthy development of a sect relies on the collective efforts of everyone.
(End of Chapter)Perhaps, the seven lucky mascots were originally destined for mediocrity, but from this moment on, or rather, from the moment he assumed the role of Sect Master, everything changed.
Now, there is a disciple with a protagonist template joining the Moonseizing Sect.
As the saying goes, when one attains the Dao, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. Even if they can't ascend, even if they only gain a tiny bit of benefit, it will be enough to propel them to greatness.
Becoming a top-tier powerhouse may be difficult.
But becoming a pillar of the sect is no problem!
Moreover, if luck is on their side, there will be more protagonists joining in the future. With their leadership, how can they not flourish?
"We also eagerly anticipate it."
Wu Xingyun spoke up at this moment, her voice filled with melancholy. "In terms of combat strength, I am the best in the Moonseizing Sect today. But I sincerely hope that you will grow quickly, surpass us, and go further on this path, leaving us far behind until we old folks can't even see your backs."
"On that day, I won't be sad, won't be sorrowful, and won't be jealous."
"On the contrary, even if I die, I will smile in my grave."
Su Xinghai laughed, "I feel the same."
Li Changshou clasped his hands behind his back, "So, cultivate diligently, little ones."
Chen Erzhu chuckled, "I'm not well-educated, and my tongue is clumsy, so... I'm the same."
Duan Qingyao performed a technique, and a large cloud gathered, carrying everyone high into the sky, "The view from above is far more spectacular than the foot of the mountain. Even if it's not for the sect, just the desire to stand higher is enough to motivate us."
The disciples were all moved.
Xiao Ling'er's eyes even turned red.
But what they didn't know was that the elders standing in front of them felt the same way.
They knew more than the disciples, but because of this, they also had more doubts and questions.
Like why was Lin Fan so domineering earlier?
But now, they finally understood.
At the same time, they were convinced that this was the last chance for the Moonseizing Sect!
They also believed that Lin Fan was the first Sect Master in many years who gave everyone hope.
"Could it be that before I die, I will truly witness the resurgence of the Moonseizing Sect?!"
If this were true, just thinking about the future scenario made their breathing quicken.
"Even if we can't witness the sect's rise, just seeing the Moonseizing Sect start to flourish and get back on track is enough to die without regret."
...
After this day, the disciples' cultivation became more intense and focused.
Xiao Ling'er, of course, didn't need any explanation for her blood-boiling protagonist life. Even if she suddenly said, 'Don't bully the young and poor,' Lin Fan wouldn't be surprised.
The seven lucky mascots, however, seemed to have their Ren and Du meridians opened.
Their cultivation didn't soar, and their talents didn't change, but their diligence... at least made up for some of their shortcomings.
Xiao Ling'er's growth also deeply inspired them, pushing them to grit their teeth and chase after her.
Additionally, with the support of the Fifth-Rank Essence Condensation Pills, their progress was far beyond what it used to be.
Li Changshou also successfully took care of the matter.
He sold a portion of the Fifth-Rank Essence Condensation Pills, earning over ten thousand Yuan Stones, enough for the sect's small number of members and the protective grand formation for a while. At least, for a short time, they wouldn't have to worry about Yuan Stones.
The five elders also became busier...
Because Xiao Ling'er needed more spiritual herbs and materials.
However, they relished the hard work.
Perhaps the only problem the Moonseizing Sect faced was having too few disciples, making it too quiet and lacking competition.
