Chapter 54: Poaching
After teaching their respective disciples a lesson, the elders of Buxu Sect sat down with gloomy expressions.
They must dig out this "Furnace of Heaven and Earth".
They will definitely be able to dig it out.
The Buxu Sect has been stationed in the East China Sea for thousands of years. The sect has an extremely deep foundation, and the number of cultivators in the sect has already exceeded tens of thousands. How can it be compared with the Lingxiao Sect, a mere emerging sect?
It is said that some sects had invited the "Furnace of Heaven and Earth" to visit in the past, but they would part ways amicably after burning up all their resources and forming a group of high-level cultivators. It seems that this so-called "Furnace of Heaven and Earth" is actually very easy to talk to, not very smart, and very easy to control.
No matter how you look at it, they are easy to control. If they had the same level of cultivation as the "Furnace of Heaven and Earth", they would have established a sect long ago and forced all the cultivators in the world to provide them with resources to boast of their achievements. They would not be like her, who was cursed everywhere and could not get any benefits.
If she hadn't always met some old-fashioned, pedantic and inflexible fools with good intentions, such people would have been locked up in the sect from the beginning and made to cook every day, and would never have been able to get out.
After analyzing and studying, the Buxu Sect was very contemptuous of the intelligence of this "Furnace of Heaven and Earth".
Rather than whether the "Furnace of Heaven and Earth" would agree to come to Buxu Sect, what they cared more about now was whether they would be stopped by the ancestor of Lingxiao Sect when they tried to poach people.
Lin Luo is already strong enough, and he wonders what level his master’s cultivation has reached now.
A Grand Elder offered a suggestion: "You might consider discussing this directly with the Lingxiao Sect's leader. It's said that the Lingxiao Sect's leader has close ties to the 'Heaven and Earth Crucible.' Regarding Lingxiao Sect's leader, Jiaoxi, we previously speculated that the lack of information about her might be due to her extraordinary background. It's also possible that her background is so humble that she's unaware of the reputation of the 'Heaven and Earth Crucible,' which is why they dare to openly associate with her and allow her to accept disciples at will."
Even in a place like the Buxu Sect, where everyone has three thousand direct disciples, the Lingxiao Sect leader didn't dare allow the "Heaven and Earth Crucible" to accept a disciple. Where did he get the confidence? Ignorance must be fearless.
"Well, my disciple said that Lingxiao Sect has a lot of spirit stones..."
"How is that possible? There can't be a sect in the East China Sea that's richer than the Buxu Sect!"
This is the foundation they have accumulated by looting countless large and small sects. There is absolutely no way there can be a sect richer than them.
A Grand Elder concluded, "Anyway, let's arrange for someone to go talk to the Lingxiao Sect's leader first."
Another elder, the Grand Elder, raised a question: "Who should we arrange to go?"
The Buxu Sect Master's Hall fell silent.
Everyone looked at the elder in charge.
The elder in charge looked around and found that there was no one in the hall whom he dared to arrange for appointment.
No one else is qualified to meet the leader of Lingxiao Sect.
The elder in charge, his scalp tingling, declined, saying, "This matter involves the leader of a major sect. It's a very serious matter. How about we calm down for a while and discuss this matter more carefully next month?"
When he said this, the elders of Buxu Sect had no objection.
Anyway, this is how the Buxu Sect has always done things. Plus, this matter is indeed quite big. If they can really dig out the "Furnace of Heaven and Earth", it would still be worthwhile for them to hold dozens more meetings.
In order to determine the candidate, Buxu Sect held a total of 137 meetings, during which everyone had very cordial and friendly exchanges. After layers of screening, it was finally decided that the number one assassin in the East China Sea would be the lobbyist.
Ten years later, the number one assassin in the East China Sea came to Lingxiao Sect and had a cordial and friendly exchange with the Sect Master Jiaoxi.
Jiao Xi killed the number one assassin in the East China Sea with a single blow, and chatted with the founder about the recent situation of the Buxu Sect.
"The Buxu Sect's reputation seems to be not very good recently."
During the past ten years, undercurrents have been surging within the Buxu Sect, and many not-so-glorious things have occurred. Many mortals who originally settled in the areas under the jurisdiction of the Buxu Sect have now moved to the vicinity of the Lingxiao Sect.
"It will soon be time to open the sect and accept disciples," Jiao Xi lowered her eyes and looked down the mountain. "It seems we should expand the scope of accepting disciples and welcome Buxu Sect cultivators to Lingxiao Sect."
The ancestor questioned, "Their bad nature will affect the disciples of Lingxiao Sect. Are you sure you want to do this?"
"The Lingxiao Sect is growing bigger and bigger."
Jiao Xi frowned slightly. "This is how the world is. It's not a good thing to keep the Lingxiao Sect cultivators in such a state of isolation forever."
Injustice, anger, and fighting have long been the fate of righteous creatures. Those who cannot keep up with their fate are destined to be eliminated. If Lingxiao Sect continues to educate them in this way, except for a few outstanding ones, the rest of the cultivators will sooner or later lose their fighting instincts.
The ancestor also frowned. "As the saying goes, 'A red flower grows redder when it is near a red flower, and a black flower grows blacker when it is near a black flower.' Those Buxu Sect cultivators are accustomed to flattery and are always lazy and unmotivated in their cultivation. They will lead us Lingxiao Sect cultivators astray, causing our disciples to become lazy and unmotivated as well. I'm afraid such a mentality will affect these disciples' paths in the future."
"But I believe that no matter what one's xinxing is, it's how long one cultivates that determines how far one can go on the path. As teachers, we are the ones who will spend the longest time with these disciples. As long as we fulfill our responsibilities and encourage them to spend more time cultivating, this won't be a problem."
"But if you receive someone like Feng Yuan, you won't be able to let him practice for a longer period of time."
Jiaoxi was silent.
Thinking about her, she was once a demon king, grinding her teeth and sucking blood, killing people like flies, making the world of cultivation flow like a river of blood. No one dared to mention her name. Wherever she passed, birds did not dare to fly around her, and fish did not dare to look up at her.
In the future, she will lead Lingxiao Sect to become the largest sect in the world. She will become the leader of the world's number one sect, with high moral character and great reputation, setting an example for the world, letting the light of righteousness shine on every inch of land, and letting the word "Jiao Xi" resound throughout the entire world of cultivation.
Now she settled in Lingxiao Sect's Qi Peak, and faced Feng Yuan, a little bastard who could never be taught, every day.
Some setbacks in life can be so big that they make people want to die.
Jiaoxi's expression was a little gloomy.
"That's it. I've even accepted Feng Yuan, so there's nothing I can't accept. This matter is settled. This time when I open the mountain gate, I will accept some cultivators from the Buxu Sect."
"OK."
The master felt that this sentence seemed to make some sense.
Zushi began to produce recruitment promotion animations.
On the day of officially opening the sect and accepting disciples, Qi Daofei stepped onto the cloud-ascending steps.
Many cultivators from the Buxu Sect came.
It’s just that some of them really want to join Lingxiao Sect, while others are just here to be spies.
Qi Daofei appeared to be a spy, but in fact he really wanted to join Lingxiao Sect.
He just felt that the Buxu Sect seemed to be getting worse and worse.
In the past, he relied on his ability to flatter and do dirty work to get along well in Buxu Sect. Now he is still good at flattering, but he has not done dirty work for a long time. The connections he accumulated in the past have left him, and his status in Buxu Sect is no different from that of most people.
But it is well known that most people in Buxu Sect are trampled under the feet of a small group of people.
His life in Buxu Sect was really not good now. There had been a lot of turmoil in the Buxu Sect in the past ten years. He tried to please this elder, and that elder was not satisfied. He tried to please that elder, and that elder was not satisfied again. The sect was full of elders who disliked each other. People like Qi Daofei who only knew how to flatter had a very difficult life.
It is an opportunity for him to enter Lingxiao Sect now.
With the flattery skills he had honed over the years in Buxu Sect, none of these guys would be his match when he came to Lingxiao Sect. He would definitely be able to become the sect master's personal disciple, and with the help of the Furnace of Heaven and Earth, sooner or later he would make Lin Luo, the world's number one swordsman, kneel before him and submit to him.
If he is a little bolder, maybe he can become the direct disciple of the founder of Lingxiao Sect and the junior brother of the world's number one swordsman. In the future, the founder will pamper him and let Lin Luo stay wherever he wants. If he makes a mistake, Lin Luo will take the blame. If he pretends to cry, Lin Luo will get beaten. The more he thinks about this day, the better it will be.
The morning sun was scorching on the Dengyun Terrace, and the spring breeze blew across Qi Daofei's cheek.
His future is bright!
When it came to the trial class, Qi Daofei stared at the teacher on the stage with burning eyes.
The old man on the podium looked vigorous and radiant, with an air of an immortal.
The Lingxiao Sect is indeed a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are hidden. They have never found such people before.
After class, Qi Daofei walked up to the stage and respectfully asked the old man questions.
"Teacher Lin, after learning the way of the sword here, can I compete with the world's number one swordsman, Lin Luo?"
"sure."
If he doesn't decide who is better, it will be difficult for him to check the homework.
Lin Luo felt that this disciple's way of speaking was quite strange, but all the disciples of Buxu Sect spoke in a strange way. After a few classes, Lin Luo got used to it.
These people were very respectful to him, even more respectful than the previous generation of disciples, which made Lin Luo wonder if they were also pretending to like practicing.
After a round of testing, Lin Luo felt that they did seem to mean this.
Moreover, they were very skilled, and their reaction was completely different from that of the previous class of disciples who could only be stunned after being caught. They had many excuses, and each one could be different. Even when he raised questions, they could use the excuse that most people did the same thing and question his teaching level in turn.
Kendo is not like other paths. The paths of weapons, talismans and food require a certain level of comprehension. Kendo, which is related to body building, will see progress as long as you practice. To have the current result, they must have caught a big fish.
It was a big fish even bigger than the one Feng Yuan caught.
There are a lot of disciples in this class. Now disciples from Buxu Sect can be seen almost everywhere in Lingxiao Sect. They all think that Teacher Lin’s teaching is just average.
Lin Luo felt that his teaching career was beginning to become a little dim.
They used to be able to keep smiling, but recently they have been unable to hold it back.
The only three peak masters of Lingxiao Sect sat together and condemned the sect leader in the main hall.
"Why did you allow Buxu Sect disciples to enter Lingxiao Sect? Are you too old to understand what they are like?"
"No one is willing to practice seriously. This won't work. Lingxiao Sect will collapse."
"Jiao Xi, if you don't want to do it anymore, you can just tell me. I understand."
Xie Ding came over with his sleeves rolled up.
Jiaoxi glanced at his unusually wide long sleeves.
"The world outside is just like this. I won't say anything about Lin Luo. Are you two serious?"
Rong You's face was sullen: "I understand what you mean, but there's no need to be like this."
Xie Ding also had a sullen expression: "I understand your thoughts, but there's really no need to go this far."
Lin Luo was a little confused.
Why did Jiaoxi say that he wouldn't say anything? He felt like they hadn't said anything, so why not let him say it?
