Starting As A Clan Leader: My Rules Are A Bit Wild

Chapter 103: Technique - Star Transformation! Three Thousand Thunderous Roars! Ascending to the Origin Returning Sect Again

"Qin Yu's technique... is Star Transformation? Unfortunately, it's only the first level, sigh!"

"Sure enough, it's heaven-defying. He actually figured it out on his own?"

Lin Fan understood.

Why did Qin Yu suddenly want to become his disciple? Most likely, after watching "The Transformation of All Things into Stars," she had some enlightenment and, relying on her talent and perseverance, created Star Transformation!

Because of this, she was able to break through to the second realm and willingly join the Embracing Moon Sect, becoming his disciple.

"The first level of Star Transformation doesn't seem to have any profound mysteries."

The Star Transformation technique is not particularly impressive in the early stages. It can only be considered above average, relatively impressive.

Only when reaching the Late Stage, the Great Late Stage, can one truly become strong and invincible.

"But speaking of which, I am quite curious."

Lin Fan stroked his chin. "If Qin Yu can reach that level, what will happen when I share his power?"

Ignoring cultivation and combat strength for now.

What about the universe?!

Could it be that a universe will also be born within me???

If that's the case, it would be amazing.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to know the answer now, and his dantian is not a "funnel."

However, he can still look forward to it a little.

Just in case~

...

The next day.

The little girl held a book and came to Qin Yu's Cave Mansion.

"Sister apprentice? Why are you here?"

"Please sit quickly."

Qin Yu stopped cultivating and quickly pulled the little girl to sit down.

He did not despise her lack of cultivation, nor did he show any disrespect.

Because he had been rained on, he understood the importance of holding an umbrella for others.

Although he didn't know why his master wanted to accept a "sister apprentice" with no talent, there must be a reason behind it. All he needed to do was respect his master and give enough respect to his sister apprentice, nothing more.

"Younger junior brother."

The little girl rarely smiled. "I came to see you."

"Master also asked me to bring this."

She took out a storage bag from her waist and smiled. "Master said that even though Senior Brother is strong and you have an extraordinary background, due to the special circumstances before, Senior Brother didn't prepare much for the low-level cultivators."

"He's also afraid that you would be embarrassed to participate in the monthly activities of the sect."

"So he asked me to bring it."

"Master also said."

Imitating Lin Fan's way of speaking, she looked quite old-fashioned, but it made people can't help but smile. "Our Embracing Moon Sect may not have much, but your eldest sister is skilled in alchemy. These pills are quite good for our Embracing Moon Sect."

"Remember to collect them every month."

After speaking, the little girl blinked her eyes. "I will also collect them."

"Elder Sister asked me to eat them like candy."

"They taste really good, so fragrant!"

Qin Yu couldn't help but laugh.

"As long as Elder Sister likes them."

"But these trivial matters are a bit troublesome for Elder Sister."

He smiled. The feeling of being treated sincerely made him very comfortable.

He had never experienced this since he was a child!

As for the pills...

He didn't really care.

Xiao Ling'er was indeed a genius in alchemy, but one person supplying the entire sect, even if she could distribute a few ordinary pills each month, it would be considered good, right?

After all, even a mortal sister could eat them like candy. How powerful could they be?

If the pills were really powerful, wouldn't this girl explode from consuming them?

"It's not a problem, it's not a problem. I can't cultivate, so these trivial matters can pass the time."

The little girl smiled. "Junior Brother, you should also try them. These pills are really delicious."

"Okay."

Since she had kindly offered, he couldn't refuse.

Moreover, both himself and Uncle Lian didn't have any low-level cultivation pills like the Condensing Essence Pill.

After all, they didn't need them before, and Uncle Lian didn't need them either.

He opened the storage bag with a smile, and then...

He was dumbfounded!

His eyes were almost blinded by the radiance!

The colorful halo reflected on his face.

"This?"

"Ah, this???"

Indeed, it was the Condensing Essence Pill used by second realm cultivators.

But... could there be too many halos?!

Each additional halo represented a higher quality.

This...

"One, two, three... nine!"

"Ninth Grade?!"

Ten pieces, Ninth Grade!!!

What?!

Qin Yu realized that he was wrong.

Very wrong!

Wrong to an extraordinary degree!

How can it be considered good to have a few ordinary elixirs?

This is clearly a full supply!

And, ten pieces!!!

All of them are Ninth Grade.

On average, one every three days!

Ten pieces per month!

Based on his current cultivation level, no, it's because of his strong physical body and fast absorption. Otherwise, he might not even be able to finish eating ten pieces in a month!!!

After all, the medicinal power of Ninth Grade elixirs is extremely astonishing, several times that of Third Grade elixirs of the same level...

This, me, ah?

At this moment, Qin Yu was dumbfounded.

Even though he is the young master, having had abundant resources since childhood, he was still greatly shocked at this moment.

He even began to question his life, almost asking who am I, where am I, and what am I doing.

The little girl tilted her head, puzzled, and asked, "Why aren't you eating?"

"You eat, junior martial brother."

"Try it, it's really delicious!"

Gulp.

Qin Yu swallowed his saliva and reluctantly turned his head to look at the little girl, "Alright, senior sister, I'll eat..."

At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind.

Senior sister is terrifying!

Embracing Moon Sect...

Exaggeration!

After taking one elixir, he immediately felt the pure spiritual energy sweeping over him. Qin Yu trembled all over and immediately focused his mind, entering a state of cultivation.

Ninth Grade elixirs cannot be wasted!

Otherwise, it would be a waste of precious resources and would invite disaster!

Seeing him start cultivating, the little girl watched for a while before quietly leaving.

It wasn't until the moon rose above the willow branches that Qin Yu slowly woke up.

Feeling that he had already broken through a small realm, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

"I broke through before fully absorbing the medicinal power, this!!!"

Just then, Lian Bo came in, his face filled with joy.

"Congratulations, young master, you've made another breakthrough!"

"Now it seems that the young master's talent for cultivation is truly monstrous!!!"

Qin Yu's mouth twitched, "Lian Bo, hold off on the praise for now."

"I am unworthy of it."

"Hmm?" Lian Bo was puzzled.

Qin Yu immediately took out a storage bag, opened it, and handed it to him, saying, "Take a look."

After a moment...

Gasp!!!

Lian Bo took a sharp breath.

"This, Ninth Grade Condensing Essence Pill?! Where did it come from?!"

"The monthly supply for the direct disciples, ten Ninth Grade elixirs per month."

"The kind suitable for the current cultivation level."

Qin Yu responded expressionlessly.

Lian Bo: "???!!!"

Wow!

I, an old man, can only say wow.

This treatment is simply heaven-defying, even the Sacred Land can't afford it, right??? Perhaps the Sacred Land has a large family and a large business, and the direct disciples are well-treated, with plenty of elixirs, as well as other supplies such as elemental stones and treasures as monthly provisions.

But which Sacred Land can be so extravagant as to directly distribute ten Ninth Grade elixirs suitable for the current cultivation level as a monthly supply?

There is absolutely none!

Not a single one can be found.

This treatment is truly heaven-defying!

After all, as far as he knows, even in the Sacred Land, only the 'Saint Child level' and the ranked geniuses can enjoy such treatment and consume Ninth Grade elixirs.

But even they, in a month, would definitely not have ten pieces!

The Saint Child level might have a chance.

Other ranked geniuses would be lucky to have three to five pieces.

Most of the time, they would still be Seven or Eight Grade elixirs, not Ninth Grade.

"This..."

After the shock, Lian Bo muttered, "It's good, it's really good."

"Just, why is Embracing Moon Sect so extravagant?"

Qin Yu pondered, "Is there a possibility that my senior sister... is this extravagant?"

"Hmm?"

"My fourth senior sister, cough."

Qin Yu continued, "She treats these elixirs like candy, and even tells her to come and get more if she's not satisfied after eating them."

Lian Bo: "(ΩДΩ)?!!!"

"You mean, that mortal little girl?"

Qin Yu nodded.

"!!!"

Unbelievable!

Even Uncle Ma was shocked.

Is this the third-rate sect, Embracing Moon Sect?

So terrifying!

This treatment...

"By the way, Uncle Ma, you came to find me late at night, there must be something?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing."

Uncle Ma hid his big hand behind him.

"I just noticed that Young Master Wang has made another breakthrough, so I came to congratulate him."

Could it be that he can say that he went to Hongwu Immortal City today to participate in the auction and bought three Seventh Grade Condensing Essence Pills at more than double the market price, and came late at night to give the pills to Young Master Wang?

Qin Yu blinked. "I see."

"Thank you for your concern, Uncle Ma."

"It's nothing, it's nothing."

"You can continue your cultivation, I'll guard outside."

Uncle Ma slipped away.

Afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would reveal something.

But...

Why is Embracing Moon Sect so outrageous?!

They can do things that even Sacred Land can't do?

It's embarrassing for me!

"But why can that little girl eat Ninth Grade pills like candy?!"

He was puzzled.

His Young Master would never lie to him.

But she's just a mortal girl. Even though Ninth Grade pills are amazing and relatively 'gentle,' wouldn't they still make her explode?

She has taken many body-strengthening pills before, but only occasionally taking one.

Eating them like candy? It's definitely not possible!

So...

There's something wrong with this little girl!!!

There's a problem.

Definitely a problem!

This Embracing Moon Sect is outrageous and unreasonable in every aspect.

He became wary and felt that his understanding of things had been almost overturned.

...

After the annual crisis, Embracing Moon Sect entered a rare period of peaceful development.

Lin Fan enjoyed his leisure time, either cultivating or going out for a stroll, showing his face and giving guidance, which made the new disciples extremely enthusiastic.

Thanks to Jin Zhen's presence, Embracing Moon Sect's overall strength was rapidly increasing.

The five elders either went to the wilderness or spent spirit stones to buy materials, then asked Jin Zhen for help with artifact refining, and armed themselves and the inner disciples.

And the artifact refining course was also directly opened.

The Grand Elder of the Fire Virtue Sect personally taught the course, a treatment that only a few people within the Fire Virtue Sect could have.

As a result, the happiness index within Embracing Moon Sect soared!

Strength naturally made rapid progress.

And if one had little to no connection with Embracing Moon Sect, they would never think that Embracing Moon Sect, which seemed to have just turned the tables, had such astonishing changes internally.

...

On this day, Xiao Ling'er came to bid farewell again.

"Master."

"I have read 'Flame Emperor' several times, and each time I gain new insights. Thank you for your guidance!"

Xiao Ling'er knelt down, her expression sincere, even with a hint of admiration.

She was not sure if what was written in the book was her future or a story written by her master based on her experiences. At first, she had headaches and anxiety about it.

But now, she has become calm.

The future or the story doesn't matter.

What matters is what her master wants to tell her through 'Flame Emperor.'

And...

What she can learn from 'Flame Emperor.'

Therefore, she carefully read it several times, and each time, she gained new insights.

She was even more grateful to Lin Fan!

Although she didn't know why Lin Fan wanted to teach her through this kind of novel, the debt she owed her master had increased.

"Get up quickly."

Lin Fan personally helped her up and smiled, "It's not just that."

"I personally don't like these formalities. In the future, you don't need to do this either. Besides, you are my senior disciple, calling me master, how can I not teach you something?"

"As for techniques and such, you have had adventures and are not lacking. As for other things, I can only do my best. I hope you won't be disappointed."

As he said these words, Lin Fan was full of complaints.

Every time you gain something?

What exactly did you learn from 'Flame Emperor'?

I have no idea!

But Lin Fan wasn't in a hurry.

Take it slow.

If she can really learn something, she will understand it when she shares her strength next time.

And this was just an attempt. If she can really comprehend something~~~

Then, I can show them the works corresponding to these "template disciples".

After all, Lin Fan is actually quite helpless.

It's true that she is the master, and under her various operations, Xiao Ling'er and the others respect her without any problem. But, she doesn't have much to teach!

Or rather, there's nothing she can teach.

Even if she teaches, it can only be like with Wang Teng, using the "deception method" to let them comprehend on their own.

It's just that these people have talents that are more abnormal than one another. Otherwise, how could they comprehend something like the Ben Zhou?

It's not that she doesn't want to teach, but she doesn't know anything!

But now, Lin Fan suddenly isn't so anxious.

Whether Xiao Ling'er has really learned something still needs to be considered, but at least Qin Yu has learned it, and the first layer of Star Transformation has been completed, with a rudimentary form.

At least it proves that the method she came up with is not completely wrong.

So~~~

As long as Xiao Ling'er can also comprehend something from it, then in the future, it will be possible for everyone to do the same.

"Disciple is grateful and there is no time to complain."

Xiao Ling'er quickly responded, "It's just that Master, disciple may need some time for this trip."

"But don't worry, Master, the required pills for this period of time are ready. After dealing with this matter, I will immediately return."

"And this trip should not be dangerous."

Lin Fan nodded, "The trip to the Origin Returning Sect?"

"Calculating the time, it is indeed the end of the year."

"Go then."

"No need to hurry, you have worked hard to refine pills for the sect. Now there is a sufficient stock, so there will be no shortage in the short term. This trip is very important for you, so handle it well. Even if you come back later, it doesn't matter."

"Yes, Master."

Xiao Ling'er smiled.

Sure enough, Master's first reaction is to care about me, and then the pills.

"By the way."

"Ya Ya?"

Xiao Ling'er looked at the little girl who was holding a book and daydreaming in the corner, "Do you want to come with us?"

She has become smarter.

This trip is not dangerous, so why not bring Ya Ya along again?

Even if it's to make up for the danger and fright from last time.

Besides, she loves this little junior sister very much.

"Big Senior Sister is willing to bring this burden with me, Ya Ya is naturally willing."

The little girl closed the book, stood up, and showed excitement.

"Then let's set off later."

Holding the little girl's hand, Xiao Ling'er's smile grew even brighter.

"Yes, I will listen to Big Senior Sister."

Ya Ya has always been sensible, making people feel distressed.

······

On the way to the Origin Returning Sect, with Xiao Ling'er leading the way, Ya Ya was very relaxed.

After chatting for a while, Xiao Ling'er picked up "Covering the Sky and Concealing the Sun" and started reading again.

Xiao Ling'er looked at it and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"Could this book also be..."

Her expression changed slightly.

In her sea of consciousness, the Medicine Granny was also shocked, "Are you saying!!!"

"Is it about Ya Ya's 'Flame Emperor'?"

Of course, they knew that the book was called "Covering the Sky and Concealing the Sun", but they didn't know its content, so they could only describe it as Ya Ya's Flame Emperor.

And if that's the case, then...

Both the master and disciple were shocked by this idea, and for a moment, they felt a bit numb.

"She is still so young, but she can't put down the book. This book must be very important to her. And your master is very mysterious. I'm afraid that our guess is most likely correct."

"Which means..."

"This book describes Ya Ya's life?!"

Without permission, they naturally wouldn't peek.

Even if they just used their divine sense, they could finish reading it in an instant.

"Hiss!"

Xiao Ling'er couldn't help but ask, "Ya Ya, is this book good?"

"It's probably good, right?"

Ya Ya whispered.

She is still too young and hasn't read many books. She doesn't understand what it means for a book to be good or not, but she instinctively feels that this book must be good.

"Just, it's not perfect."

"Not perfect?"

Xiao Ling'er couldn't help but think of the "Flame Emperor".

The Flame Emperor...

It can be said to have a perfect ending.

The protagonist, Xiao Huohuo, becomes the emperor, and then ascends with his wife, Ascension. How perfect is that?

But what she is more concerned about is Ya Ya.

If she guessed correctly, this book "Covering the Sky and Concealing the Sun" should be about Ya Ya, almost covering her entire life! If the story in the book is not perfect, does it mean that Ya Ya will encounter something unfortunate?

"!"

Thinking of this, Xiao Ling'er's heart tightened.

"No."

"I... want to help Ya Ya."

"If she encounters any danger, I will definitely help her, even if it means risking my life!"

"But... without reading the book, I have no idea what she will experience..."

After a brief pause, Xiao Ling'er looked at Ya Ya and said, "Ya Ya, do you believe in Senior Sister?"

"Of course I do." Ya Ya smiled. "Senior Sister is very good to me."

"Master is also very good to me."

"Well..."

"Senior Sister wants to read 'Covering the Sky and Blocking the Sun', is that okay?"

"I can lend you 'Flame Emperor' as well, it's also written by Master and it's very exciting!"

"Well..."

"Okay."

The little girl agreed.

For them, Lin Fan did not impose a ban on "not allowing others to read".

Therefore, they could exchange or show each other their "stories" without any restrictions.

After a moment, they exchanged books.

Xiao Ling'er held 'Covering the Sky and Blocking the Sun', which seemed light as a feather, but felt as heavy as a thousand catties!

When she turned her head, she found that the little girl had already started reading 'Flame Emperor' with great interest. Xiao Ling'er took a deep breath and said, "Master, we have already traveled more than half of the journey, there won't be enough time to read it normally."

"Let's use our divine sense! We can savor it later."

"I want to know as soon as possible what the little junior sister in the book will experience."

"Good! That's how it should be." The Medicine Granny agreed.

During the two years spent in the Embracing Moon Sect, the Medicine Granny had also been influenced. The harmonious sect made her have a good impression of everyone in the sect, and even a strong sense of belonging to the Embracing Moon Sect. Naturally, she also wanted to contribute to matters related to the little girl.

With their divine sense, they were able to read the contents of a book in just a moment. Then came the second book, the third book.

The story was very exciting!

Not inferior to 'Flame Emperor'!

But where was the character representing Ya Ya?

Both the master and disciple were a little confused.

It wasn't until the mystery of the ruthless Empress's background gradually unfolded that they were stunned.

This ancient and unparalleled Empress, with extraordinary talent, turned out to be the character represented by Ya Ya?!

It was only at this moment that they realized that Ya Ya would experience such pain and despair.

They hoped.

They hoped that Ya Ya could find that 'flower' and fulfill her wish.

But in the end, they were disappointed.

Even until the final chapter, the ruthless empress cannot reverse the flow of time and revive the person she has been waiting for.

Not for becoming immortal, only for waiting for your return in the mortal world.

But even if I become immortal, 'you' are still out of reach, unable to be seen.

The master and disciple finally understand the meaning behind Ya Ya's words about imperfection, but this is too bitter, too despairing.

Without experiencing the same things, one cannot truly empathize.

They are only speaking out for Ya Ya, feeling sorry for her, without much deep understanding or that kind of 'enlightenment' that comes from full immersion.

But it is enough.

This is enough for them to understand Ya Ya's expectations, even the future!

As for the ruthless empress's 'demonic skills', they have no aversion to it, only feeling sorry for her.

Holding the book, Xiao Ling'er looks at the little girl who is engrossed in reading "The Flame Emperor". For a moment, her heart is in chaos and she doesn't know what to say.

But the little girl seems to have sensed something and looks up, her eyes showing a sweet smile. "Senior Sister, this book, 'The Flame Emperor', seems to be telling your story."

"Xiao Huohuo, hey."

Xiao Ling'er: "..."

"She has already read this book several times."

"At such a young age, she repeatedly faces such despair, and it is voluntary."

"Junior Sister, she..."

The Medicine Granny sighed, "At such a young age, facing failure and despair multiple times, yet never giving up or breaking down, such a temperament..."

"I'm afraid she might really become the ruthless empress!"

"The ruthless empress is unparalleled, dominating multiple eras with her strength, but it is too bitter."

"If possible, I still hope that Junior Sister can save 'Brother' and have a perfect story."

"But that requires enough strength!"

Xiao Ling'er is determined in her heart.

She didn't say much to the little girl, nor did she make any promises.

Because she knows it's too difficult, any Immortal Dynasty is comparable to a Sacred Land, how can it be so easily overturned?

But she has decided to do everything she can to help.

If that day really comes, even if the other party is an Immortal Dynasty or a Sacred Land, she will never back down! She will stand by Junior Sister's side and face it together.

...

After a moment of silence, the Medicine Granny felt that the atmosphere was too heavy, so she actively changed the topic and said, "Ling'er, have you noticed that the emperor techniques and secret arts in 'Covering the Sky and Concealing the Sun' are extremely amazing?"

"Indeed, it seems that they are stronger than the cultivation methods and secret arts described in 'The Flame Emperor'."

Xiao Ling'er nodded, but then she smiled casually, "But so what?"

"Teacher, the Burning Flame Art is the most suitable cultivation method for disciples!"

"That's true." The Medicine Granny nodded, "I'm not jealous or anything, but I'm thinking, since your master didn't forbid you from reading 'Covering the Sky and Concealing the Sun', can we cultivate some of the techniques and secret arts described in it if we can create them based on the descriptions?"

"Like the Nine Secrets, every one of them is amazing. If we can comprehend one or two of them, it will definitely be a huge help!"

"What the teacher said is true." Xiao Ling'er also thinks so, but she adds, "But it's too difficult, too difficult! At least, I haven't had any clue so far."

"Indeed, it is the same for me as well."

The Medicine Granny smiled helplessly.

Perhaps those secret techniques were too astonishing?

Or perhaps it was not ultimately "my own" story?

The Medicine Granny always felt that while reading "Flame Emperor," those secret techniques always had a sense of familiarity. Upon further contemplation, it even felt like second nature.

But when recalling the secret techniques in "Covering the Sky," she always felt inadequate when trying to delve deeper and understand them.

"Well, let's not think about those for now. Do you have any news about the Three Thousand Thunderous Roars?"

"I do have some ideas, Master. Perhaps, it won't take long before I can create them from scratch."

"Is that so?!"

"Master is amazing!!!" Xiao Ling'er exclaimed in joy.

Now, she had already read "Flame Emperor" several times, and each time, she was particularly envious of the Three Thousand Thunderous Roars.

If she could create and successfully cultivate them, it would undoubtedly be a huge improvement for herself.

In future encounters with enemies, whether to stay or leave, she would have more confidence!

...

Origin Returning Sect.

As soon as Xiao Ling'er arrived, a familiar female elder who had met her a few days ago came to greet her.

"Miss Ling'er has arrived."

"Who is this?"

She looked at the little girl with some curiosity.

An ordinary mortal woman with no talent?

"She is my junior sister. I brought her here to broaden her horizons. Please excuse us."

"Oh?!"

The elder became even more curious.

Currently, Embracing Moon Sect was not at its peak, but its reputation was growing. The fact that their Sect Master had taken in an ordinary mortal girl as a direct disciple was quite strange.

"This is nothing."

While curious, she waved her hand nonchalantly. "Please follow me. I have already arranged accommodation for you. In the next few days, Miss Xiao can cultivate on her own or explore the surroundings, as long as she doesn't go to the forbidden areas."

"In two days, it will be the day to compete for the qualification to enter the Origin Returning Secret Realm. I will come to remind you then."

"Thank you, Elder Chen," Xiao Ling'er responded politely.

"No need for thanks," Elder Chen smiled. "By the way, is there anything else you need? We have some good things in the sect's treasury recently. You can take a look and take whatever you need."

Xiao Ling'er scratched her head.

She felt a little embarrassed.

She didn't have such thick skin.

"I don't need anything for now."

Xiao Ling'er replied softly. How long had it been? Going to plunder again would make her unable to do such a thing, even if the other party had a request, she couldn't plunder too often!

"If you need anything in the future, as long as our Origin Returning Sect has it, you can take it."

Elder Chen smiled and his expression gradually became serious, with a hint of awkwardness. He said, "There is one more thing."

"It's not a big deal, just..."

Elder Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Your previous experiences in our sect have already spread, and you also have the qualification to compete for the entry into the Origin Returning Secret Realm. This has caused some dissatisfaction among the current disciples."

"I'm ashamed."

"It's also our fault for not teaching them well. They don't understand the principles of reciprocity and have some simple-minded dissatisfaction towards you."

"I occasionally heard that the disciples have opinions about you."

"And privately, they want to show you some colors in two days."

"So, please be careful."

"But with your strength, you should have nothing to fear."

Xiao Ling'er scratched her head.

This matter had caused quite a stir.

She felt even more embarrassed.

After all, she was just an outsider.

Not only did she go to the treasury to plunder and take whatever she wanted, but she also wanted to snatch the sect's most valued Secret Realm. That was a ten-year cultivation opportunity!

Naturally, the disciples of Origin Returning Sect would not remain calm!

They would definitely be angry.

Anyone would be the same.

They had opinions about her, which was only natural.

As for fear, she naturally had none.

But...

This matter needed to be handled properly. Otherwise, Origin Returning Sect would be in a state of chaos.

As the "invested party," she couldn't just sit back and do nothing.

"How about I hold back a little?"

"No, that's not good either. If you hold back and win with difficulty, they will probably be even more dissatisfied with the sect's decision, thinking that this person is nothing more than slightly stronger than us."

"Why can a slightly stronger outsider come and snatch our sect's opportunities?"

"Indeed." The Medicine Granny could come up with several perfect solutions to this matter, but she refused to speak and only wanted to test Xiao Ling'er.

After a moment, Xiao Ling'er's eyes brightened.

"I've got it!"

"Really?" The Medicine Granny was curious.

"Really!"

But then, both of them were stunned.

What a thing to say.

It seemed like they had figured something out.

"Cough." The Medicine Granny, having experienced many hardships, coughed and said, "In that case, I will wait for you to show your abilities."

"Teacher, rest assured, your disciple will definitely solve this matter!"

...

Two days later.

The Inner Sect Grand Competition of the Origin Returning Sect began.

Although it was called a grand competition, not all Inner Sect disciples participated. Only a few were selected.

Firstly, Inner Sect disciples and above had the right to challenge the ranked disciples.

The top ten ranked disciples could be challenged by anyone. The winner would become the new ranked disciple and also have the qualification to compete for the entrance ticket to the Origin Returning Secret Realm.

This was also a form of "internal motivation."

It allowed the disciples of the sect to see hope and strive to catch up.

It also brought pressure to the ranked disciples, making them not dare to be careless and always work hard to maintain their leading position. Otherwise, they would have to give up their ranking.

Xiao Ling'er had a privilege.

She didn't need to participate in the challenge matches. She could directly fight against the ranked disciples and compete for the entrance ticket to the Origin Returning Secret Realm.

Although the disciples of the Origin Returning Sect were unhappy about this, they had nothing to say.

Because they all knew that the former second-ranked disciple had been defeated by Xiao Ling'er.

She had the strength!

But for an outsider like Xiao Ling'er to come and snatch their opportunity, and to have such privileges, naturally, they wouldn't have a good expression.

The battle lasted for half a day, and the challenge matches finally ended.

The main event was about to begin.

All the disciples were ready.

Qin Chuiliu, who had challenged Xiao Ling'er and lost, and had been stripped of his ranking, regained his qualification through his own strength!

After all, his strength was there.

Although he had been stripped of his ranking as the former second-ranked disciple, his strength was still there.

But...

This time, he only obtained the seventh-ranked position, making his face extremely ugly.

"Everyone!"

He transmitted his voice with divine sense and informed everyone, "This qualification match is a free-for-all!"

"It doesn't matter who wins or loses among us, after all, we are all fellow disciples, our own people."

"But if Xiao Ling'er becomes the final winner, not only will we lose face, but the entire Origin Returning Sect will become a laughingstock."

"People will laugh at the disciples of our Origin Returning Sect for not being able to even protect our own Secret Realm!"

"Don't you want to be slapped in the face by Xiao Ling'er?"

"In my opinion, we should join forces to take down Xiao Ling'er first, and then determine the winner!"

Xu Sanqiu, the first-ranked disciple, frowned and was somewhat dissatisfied, but he didn't oppose it in the end.

This matter was not only about personal honor and disgrace, but also about the face of the entire sect.

Although he thought it was a bit petty, he reluctantly agreed.

Naturally, the others also agreed.

They were already unhappy with Xiao Ling'er, so this time, they naturally wanted to teach her a lesson.

"This is a free-for-all."

Elder Chen whispered to Xiao Ling'er, "Xiao Miss, be careful, they might..."

"I understand."

Xiao Ling'er nodded slightly.

It was reasonable and understandable.

But...

Xiao Ling'er said again, "However, Elder Chen, if there is anything wrong with what Xiao Ling'er does later, please forgive me."

Elder Chen was taken aback.

Then, he became somewhat surprised.

She knew that Xiao Ling'er was very strong, but from the meaning of her words at this moment, it seemed that she could single-handedly defeat ten opponents?

Isn't that a bit too confident?!

"Miss Xiao is joking."

Elder Chen sighed, "If you can defeat ten opponents single-handedly, it means that our sect's disciples are not skilled enough, and it has nothing to do with Miss."

"With these words, the junior can rest assured."

Xiao Ling'er smiled slightly.

The little girl waved her fist, "Senior Sister, go for it!"

"Just watch carefully."

Xiao Ling'er rubbed the little girl's head, then flew onto the stage and clasped her fists at everyone.

"Embracing Moon Sect's Xiao Ling'er, I am fortunate to receive the favor of your sect's master and elders, and have this opportunity. I feel deeply honored."

She spoke loudly, neither humble nor arrogant, with clear and determined eyes.

"But at the same time, I also feel fearful. What virtues and abilities do I have to receive such favor?"

"Therefore, Xiao Ling'er has made a decision. On this stage, I will fight alone against the top ten ranked disciples of your esteemed sect!"

"If I win, it will be my good fortune. If I lose, it will be because I am unworthy."

"I ask all Fellow Daoists not to pity me and to join forces."

"Otherwise, it would be unfair for me to win."

Elder Chen: "???"

High-level members of the Origin Returning Sect: "Σ(⊙▽⊙“a???"

Wow!

What a dishonorable victory!

What a lack of pity for me.

What a willingness to join forces!

We were all worried that they would team up against you, and you wouldn't benefit from it. But instead, you ignored our advice, even instigating and fueling the fire yourself?!

Are you really that confident?!

"Arrogant!"

Xu Sanqiu shouted angrily.

Qin Chuanliu followed closely, "Since you are so arrogant, don't blame us for outnumbering you!"

He was secretly delighted, thinking that Xiao Ling'er was seeking death!

Other disciples also voiced their anger and frustration.

"This is outrageous!"

"Too arrogant!"

"Do you not even consider us worthy?!"

They all stepped forward, filled with righteous indignation and a rising fighting spirit.

Although they had already decided to join forces, they also knew that it was not honorable. They felt somewhat uncomfortable about it, but they had no choice. Otherwise, if Xiao Ling'er were to snatch the qualification from them, it would be extremely embarrassing.

Who would have thought that Xiao Ling'er would be so arrogant...

"Please enlighten me."

Xiao Ling'er completely disregarded their anger and took the initiative to invite them to fight.

"Hmph!"

Xu Sanqiu, as the top-ranked disciple, had reached the Sixth Layer of the Fifth Finger Mystic Realm, displaying astonishing strength.

With just a wave of his hand, he unleashed countless mysterious and varied attacks.

The other nine disciples also attacked at the same time, each displaying their unique skills, intending to defeat Xiao Ling'er in an instant!

Elder Chen tensed up, ready to save someone at any moment...

But it was at this moment that Xiao Ling'er made her move.

Crack!

Thunder resounded!

Boom.

Xiao Ling'er was engulfed by a dense barrage of attacks.

Just when everyone thought she had been defeated, the dust cleared, and her battered body dissipated into lightning...

"What?!"

The ten disciples were shocked.

The high-level members of the Origin Returning Sect were equally surprised, "Such incredible speed, like lightning!"

The little girl was particularly excited, "Could it be the Three Thousand Thunder Movement?!"

If the Three Thousand Thunder Movement could be successfully cultivated, then... the techniques and secret arts of the Ruthless Empress would surely work too!

But then a scream suddenly rang out.

Qin Chuanliu felt pain as he was instantly surrounded by Strange Fire, and was sent flying...

"Be careful, she's incredibly fast!"

Xu Sanqiu shouted, turning around in an instant.

Boom!

Their fists collided, and Xiao Ling'er was forced back, but Xu Sanqiu also took several steps back before stopping.

"Be careful!" he exclaimed in shock, "She is an unparalleled genius, do not underestimate her!"

Just as he finished speaking, several disciples screamed and lost their fighting ability in the blink of an eye.

In just a moment, only Xu Sanqiu remained standing in the field.

Xu Sanqiu: "..."

Xiao Ling'er revealed herself, her face filled with excitement.

The Three Thousand Thunder Movement is indeed powerful!

Her speed is almost faster than lightning! And this is not even her limit, she has just started to learn it.

This was just her debut, effortlessly defeating these skilled opponents with her speed. If she were to fully master it, what would happen?

"You are strong, but..."

Xu Sanqiu wanted to struggle, but he saw a seemingly inconspicuous fireball appearing in Xiao Ling'er's hand.

"I'm sorry."

Xiao Ling'er whispered, "I have a reason to win."

"It's over."

Elder Chen's scalp tingled as he felt the terrifying power contained within the small fireball. He immediately appeared and declared Xiao Ling'er the winner.

Otherwise, he was afraid that Xu Sanqiu's stubbornness would lead to his own demise!

"I concede."

Xiao Ling'er clasped her fists, then waved her hand to retrieve the Immortal Devouring Flame scattered on Qin Chuanliu and the others, standing proudly.

However...

The disciples of the Origin Returning Sect were all dumbfounded, completely stunned.

Their elders and high-ranking members also wore bitter expressions, unable to believe what they had just witnessed.

They had guessed that they would lose.

But they never expected to lose so thoroughly and swiftly.

Even when the ten disciples joined forces, they were no match for her!

Today, while chatting with friends, I made a random bet that if anyone could guess the template of the character 'Lu Ming' in the character list, I would update more. But so far, no one has guessed it. Hehehe.
