Chapter 6: The Necklace's Soliloquy - Xiao Ling'er
Chapter 6: The Necklace's Soliloquy - Xiao Ling'er
"Delicious!"
"So fragrant!"
"Yum, yum, yum, this is so good!"
The crowd devoured the food voraciously, wolfing it down.
The demons devoured and exhaled, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, the essence of heaven and earth, and cultivating spiritual energy. Even the lowest-level demons, nourished by spiritual energy, had meat that was far superior in taste and texture compared to ordinary livestock.
Most of those who came to Moon Grasp Sect to pay respects were of modest backgrounds, and few had ever tasted demon meat before.
Moreover, the fact that the Elder had provided such meat, which belonged to second and third realm demons, meant that the 'essence' in their blood and flesh was incredibly beneficial to ordinary people.
They ate with such enthusiasm that they almost swallowed their tongues.
By the end, everyone's stomachs were bulging, yet they still craved more.
"Is this what an immortal sect is like? They are truly generous!"
They couldn't eat anymore, and their hearts were filled with awe.
"I guess it's just the Moon Grasp Sect, right? I've heard that other sects are very arrogant and treat us like ants, not caring about us at all..."
Unlike them, the Moon Grasp Sect not only takes care of our meals but also provides us with the meat of such demons. I feel like my strength has increased significantly!"
"Wow, if that's the case, the Moon Grasp Sect is indeed a blessed land of immortals! This is the grace of immortals."
"I wonder if I'll have the opportunity to pay respects and enter the sect. If I do get the chance, it will be my good fortune."
"Even if I can't join the sect, when I return from this trip, I'll tell my fellow villagers about the goodness of the Moon Grasp Sect. Maybe they'll come and try it too, who knows?"
"..."
Listening to their conversation, the Fifth Elder, Duan Qingyao, couldn't help but smile. "Just now, I didn't understand why the Sect Master insisted on providing them with meals and specifically asked for the hunting of demons.
But now it seems that I was the one with limited understanding."
"Putting yourself in others' shoes, this is how you win people's hearts. If you win their hearts, at least there won't be a shortage of people coming to pay respects next year!"
"Perhaps there are few talented individuals among the rural folk, but with more people, there's always a greater chance."
Lin Fan shook his head. "That's not a matter of limited understanding."
Duan Qingyao thought Lin Fan was going to comfort her.
But the next second, he said, "It's more like having a narrow mindset."
Duan Qingyao's smile froze.
The other four Elders couldn't help but chuckle.
"Hunting second and third realm demons is a simple task for the Elders, but it allows these people to feel grateful, and it helps spread our reputation. Why wouldn't we do it?"
"Those major sects have plenty of talented individuals to choose from, but our Moon Grasp Sect doesn't have that privilege."
Details determine success or failure!
In Lin Fan's opinion, the Moon Grasp Sect didn't have a choice.
Moreover, what's wrong with the rural folk? As long as there's 'fate' involved, right?
Besides, they lack understanding, so they won't find the Moon Grasp Sect awkward. After all, compared to their hometown, the Moon Grasp Sect is ultimately a 'land of immortals'.
Reputation is a good thing.
"What about the details?"
The Elders fell into deep thought.
Before this, it seemed... they hadn't paid attention to such details. What details were there?
It was just following the rules.
Isn't that what everyone does? Testing for talent, examining the core, and then accepting them into the sect.
The only difference is that each sect has slightly different examination methods, nothing more.
Over the years, he himself had never calmed down to think about it. The major sects are arrogant because they have the qualifications to be arrogant. Even if they do nothing, those from great families and talented individuals will still rush to pay respects.
But what about the Moon Grasp Sect?
Seeing their silence, Lin Fan sighed inwardly.
They were barely surviving, and yet they still cared about their image...
You're a small-time university, and you want to recruit students like Tsinghua or Peking University?
"You're the one who's not doing anything, who's the one who's not doing anything?"
But this can't be blamed on them, it can only be said that cultivators all have arrogance, and each sect has been passing down this generation after generation, so they naturally follow suit.
But he absolutely does not allow this situation to happen.
Otherwise, who knows what will happen in a year, no, it's already been a year since he's about to die!
······
"Elders, have you found anyone who meets our new rules?"
After observing for a long time, Lin Fan quietly spoke up.
The five elders then became lively, although they didn't understand what these mysterious rules of Lin Fan were for, but since it had already been agreed that everyone would work together, they wouldn't drag their feet.
"The corner of her mouth is hanging with a mysterious smile, and she hasn't been found."
"The one being targeted hasn't been found either."
"The one whose bones are being dug up, and whose life is in danger, hasn't been found either."
"The one who's as timid as a mouse, and who's extremely cautious, hasn't been found either. The vast majority are trying to show themselves off, with a few who are slightly introverted, but they're not timid either."
"The one with a changeable personality hasn't been found either."
"······"
Just as Lin Fan thought he was destined to be disappointed, the Second Elder Wu Xingyun quietly spoke up: "There is one."
"She likes to talk to herself."
"But there's no ring on her hand, only a necklace. I don't know if she's talking to the necklace."
"Who?"
"She?"
"Her face is filled with joy, and she quickly bows: 'Disciple Xiao Ling'er, greets the Sect Master.'"
