Yuejiao looked at her great-granddaughter, whose thought process was quite peculiar, and replied with a smile, "Good girl, the scepter in your great-grandmother's hand is solid, it's pure gold, there's no way to fake it. Why don't you take it and weigh it?"
Sheng Lingwei frowned, feeling that her great-grandmother's smile was strange, just like that of the wolf in sheep's clothing.
"Great-grandmother, let's just forget about it!"
Yuejiao said bluntly, "That won't do. You must personally verify the immense wealth and power of our Great Yuezhi."
"Immense wealth? Is that all?" Sheng Lingwei's lips twitched as she stared intently at the golden scepter, her eyes filled with doubt.
If a golden scepter is such immense wealth, then the mountains of gold and silver in her space must be heavenly riches.
Yue Jiao's eyes flashed, and she quickly stuffed the scepter into Sheng Lingwei's hand, "My dear great-granddaughter, take it. This is a gift from your great-grandmother."
Sheng Lingwei: "..."
Just as she grasped the scepter, all the Yuezhi people, with solemn and respectful expressions, knelt down in unison and shouted:
"We pay our respects to the young clan leader!"
Yuejiao and Yueyuqian exchanged a glance, their eyes full of cunning.
Sheng Lingwei: "..." (／_＼) What a vengeful person
So she was tricked by her own mother and great-grandmother. She had no desire to be the young clan leader at all.
"My dear great-granddaughter, the matter is settled, so just obediently comply!" Yue Jiao looked at Sheng Lingwei with loving eyes, smiling like an old fox.
Sheng Lingwei's lips twitched violently, her dead fish eyes widening, "Great-grandmother, is this the extravagant wealth you speak of?"
Yuejiao nodded, "Yes, my goodness, although the Yuezhi have secluded themselves from the world, they are not so poor that they only have a golden scepter left. This scepter is the token of the Yuezhi patriarch."
Now, I hand over the scepter to you, signifying that I entrust the entire Yuezhi to you. I believe that under your leadership, the Yuezhi will surely regain the glory of our ancestors.
"No! I don't want to be the young clan leader!"
Sheng Lingwei was very annoyed and quickly threw the scepter back to Yue Jiao, but the scepter was like a stubborn bug, and she couldn't shake it off no matter how hard she tried.
Yuejiao sighed and spoke the truth.
"Goodness, don't waste your time."
This scepter is sentient. Now that I've given it to you, it means you are its new master. No one can take it away unless you pass it on to your future daughter, the next clan leader.
There was no other way; the Yuezhi were a matriarchal society, and only girls had the right to inherit the throne.
Sheng Lingwei's face fell. Her silence was deafening. She put the scepter into her spatial storage, out of sight, out of mind.
She hadn't even had a chance to enjoy herself properly before she had to take on the heavy responsibility of the Yuezhi. It was really annoying.
Yue Yuqian's heart skipped a beat when she saw Sheng Lingwei's increasingly grim expression.
"Um, Weiwei!" She carefully took Sheng Lingwei's hand. "My dear daughter, if you really don't want to be the young clan leader, your mother won't force you."
But you are the successor designated by the ancestors, so you must assume the position of young clan leader.
"How about this, your mother will take over the administration of the Yuezhi for you first, and you can take over whenever you want, okay?"
Yueyu Qian's eyes were full of pleading, and she was almost in tears.
Yuejiao also looked at Sheng Lingwei with pleading eyes.
She felt extremely guilty, realizing she had oversimplified things. Not everyone in the world likes power, but her great-granddaughter was an exception.
If she had known this would happen, she shouldn't have schemed to let her great-granddaughter succeed her as clan leader.
(????)well!
Seeing her two relatives looking so pitiful, Sheng Lingwei sighed, saying that life is not easy!
So be it, it's just the position of clan leader!
Even if she doesn't take over now, she'll have to take over sooner or later. She can't expect her mother to give birth to a little sister right now!
Sheng Lingwei squeezed Yue Yuqian's hand and looked at Yue Jiao with a resentful expression, "Alright, stop with this nonsense. I'll accept the position of clan leader."
"Really?" Yuejiao's eyes lit up.
Sheng Lingwei smiled faintly, "Really? I hope that in the future, Great-Grandmother, you will speak your mind directly and discuss matters frankly. I really, really dislike being schemed against."
If it weren't for blood ties, she would have already broken off all pretense of civility with anyone else on the spot.
Yuejiao's face turned pale, and she hurriedly nodded in a fawning manner.
"Okay, my dear, great-grandmother remembers. Please rest assured, this is the only time, and the last time. There will be no next time."
Sheng Lingwei nodded, indicating that the matter was over.
She then scanned the kneeling crowd one by one and quickly discovered that their supernatural abilities were very mixed and that each person's aura was unstable, which meant that their supernatural ability levels were unstable.
So this is what Mother meant when she said the method of cultivating supernatural abilities in the Yuezhi had gone wrong.
Tsk tsk, this isn't just a minor problem, it's a major one. A superpower that can't even establish a solid foundation, no matter how high its level, is nothing but a facade.
Thinking of this, Sheng Lingwei felt a heavy burden on her shoulders; being the young clan leader was not an easy task.
"Everyone, please rise!"
With a wave of her hand, Sheng Lingwei unleashed a gentle yet domineering spiritual force that instantly lifted everyone up.
The people of the Yuezhi were shocked, their eyes filled with joy and excitement. My God, their young chieftain is too amazing!
Yuejiao and Yueyuqian's eyes reddened, feeling both gratified and heartbroken.
Those bright, devout eyes deeply moved Sheng Lingwei, and at that moment, she felt a strong sense of mission.
"People of the Yuezhi, since you have recognized me as the junior chief, then I will assume the responsibilities of the junior chief."
I imagine you're all aware that your abilities have problems, but I won't go into details about what those problems are.
Next, I will teach you the correct methods for cultivating your supernatural abilities, and then provide one-on-one guidance. I hope you can cooperate and eliminate all distracting thoughts.
The people of the Yuezhi were overjoyed; they had been waiting for this moment for a long time. They immediately shouted, "We will obey the young chieftain's orders!"
The cheers were deafening, and the atmosphere was joyous.
Sheng Lingwei nodded, a slight smile playing on her lips.
...
In the following period, Sheng Lingwei first familiarized herself with the Dayuezhi, and then devised a plan to have Jing Qingyun, Nangong Zichen, and Bai Ji teach the tribespeople the correct cultivation methods.
She was primarily responsible for punishing Zhang Mufuting.
In the square, Zhang Mu Fu Ting now only has a head and half a body left, soaking in a jar with a special potion. He eats and sleeps, sleeps and eats, hence the name "human pig".
In reality, he suffered every day, experiencing immense physical and mental anguish, unable to die and unable to live.
At this moment, Sheng Lingwei came to Zhang Mufuting.
She quickly created an isolation barrier using her mental power, mainly because the old beast smelled terrible and she didn't want her nose to suffer.
"Waaaaah..."
Zhang Mufu was agitated, his cloudy old eyes glaring fiercely at Sheng Lingwei.
