"What did you say? They were all killed, with no survivors?"
Upon hearing the report, Lin Ruoyan frowned, her eyes flashing with anger, her breathing heavy, her fists clenched tightly, and she roared.
"Young Master! I heard it was done by that young master named Junlan."
"Junlan! Junlan! You bunch of good-for-nothings!"
They couldn't even handle a single bamboo shadow! And now there's Junlan too?
"Young Master, please forgive me! Jun Lan looks gentle and refined, but I never imagined he was such a great demon."
We couldn't dodge in time, and that's how..."
With a "bang," Lin Ruoyan lifted her slender leg and stomped the person heavily on the ground, warning them.
"Since that's the case, then give it your all! If you still can't take down Junlan and Zhuying!"
"Your Second Brigade, get out of Xuanyan Pavilion immediately!"
"Yes, Your Majesty! I obey!"
Upon receiving the order, the man in black quickly got up from the ground and disappeared completely into the night.
Meanwhile, Gu Qianluo and her two companions, who had already returned to the inn, were discussing their next plan.
"Junlan truly lives up to his title as the deputy head of the Hundred Flowers Sect. His attacks are swift, ruthless, and precise, leaving no one alive!"
"Senior Sister Qiao'er is too kind. Junlan believes that we should not stay here any longer. Let's hurry back to the Xiaoyao Sect!"
“I think Junlan is right. The disciples of Xuanyan Pavilion are widely distributed, and our whereabouts have likely been exposed.”
Given Xuan Yan Pavilion's vengeful nature, tonight is sure to be anything but peaceful.
"Okay! Let's get ready quickly!"
Three months later
After six months of comprehensive training, Gu Qianluo and Zhu Ying have gained a general understanding of the affairs of the Xiaoyao Sect.
Since completing the task three months ago, I have received various other tasks related to finding people and lost items.
Due to pressure from her family to arrange her wedding before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the sect leader of Nanxing Sect had to resign from her position ahead of schedule.
The first day of the ninth lunar month is the monthly sect assembly of the Xiaoyao Sect.
From the sect leader down to the trainee disciples, everyone must attend.
"Junlan, I heard that the Nanxing Sect Master is going to resign from his position as the Hundred Flowers Sect Master. Are you aware of this?"
I've heard of it occasionally.
"Don't you have any ideas?" Zhu Ying raised her eyebrows and looked Gu Qianlu up and down, asking in a puzzled tone.
"I just want to learn the skills properly; nothing else is within my consideration."
As soon as the two entered the sect's main hall, they saw that Tang Jiuzhao was already sitting in the main seat.
On his left and right sat four sect leaders.
"Welcome all disciples of the Free and Unfettered Sect to the sect assembly! Today, our sect has an important announcement to make."
"What important matter did the sect leader speak of? What is it? Could the rumors be true?"
"It must be that big event at the Hundred Flowers Sect!"
The two disciples behind Gu Qianluo whispered among themselves.
Hearing the commotion below, the senior disciple in charge on the stage immediately shouted a reprimand.
"Silence! Silence! The sect leader is speaking, so please be quiet!"
"Our Nanxing Sect Master has to temporarily resign from his position due to personal family matters."
As for the next leader, the sect leader and the four sect masters have already discussed it, and for the time being, Junlan will serve as the next leader of the Hundred Flowers Sect.
Gu Qianluo narrowed her eyes slightly and raised her head slightly. She saw that almost hundreds of eyes in the hall were looking at her, and she could faintly hear their voices.
"Jun Lan? Is that the Jun Lan who was promoted to deputy manager after only three months in the Free and Unfettered Sect, and then to sect leader in less than a year?"
"Does he have connections? Otherwise, how could he have been promoted so quickly?"
"That's right! That's right! Our Senior Sister Liu Qing has been the deputy manager for three years, but she still hasn't been promoted to manager."
......
The noise had just subsided, but suddenly it became lively again.
Tang Jiuzhao, seated at the head of the table, darkened his gaze and turned to look at Nanxing beside him, giving her instructions.
"Sect Leader Nanxing, please explain in detail why you chose Junlan as the next sect leader?"
"Yes, sir!" Nanxing noticed the anger in Tang Jiuzhao's eyes and quickly went to Gu Qianluo, speaking loudly.
"Since joining the Xiaoyao Sect, Junlan has assisted the Huanxing Sect in helping its employers recover ten treasures."
They assisted the Hundred Flowers Sect in finding eight people.
Junlan has performed exceptionally well over the past few months, passing the tests administered by Sect Leader Tang and the four sect leaders.
Congratulations, Junlan, on becoming the next Sect Master of the Hundred Flowers Sect.
After the sect leader of Nanxing introduced Gu Qianluo, the disciples' doubts turned into exclamations of admiration.
"In just nine months, they accomplished what we couldn't achieve in a year! Junlan truly deserves the title!"
"It seems that our Hundred Flowers Sect has such an outstanding new sect leader, with a bright future ahead of him!"
"In terms of seniority, she should be our junior sister. But now, we should learn more from her."
Gu Qianluo naturally understood the Southern Star Sect Master's good intentions. She quickly stood up and walked to the center of the hall, bowing to Tang Jiuzhao, who was seated at the head of the table, and the four sect masters to express her gratitude.
"Thank you for your trust, Sect Master Tang, Sect Master Nanxing, and the other three sect masters."
Junlan will certainly live up to expectations and complete the tasks assigned by the employer.
Having received Gu Qianluo's promise, Nanxing happily took off the Hundred Flowers Sect token from her person and handed it to Gu Qianluo.
"Junlan! The Hundred Flowers Sect will be counting on you from now on!"
After being appointed, Gu Qianluo slowly retreated to the ranks of the Hundred Flowers Sect disciples.
"Cuiyu! Step forward and obey my command!"
Zhu Ying raised an eyebrow, a complex emotion flickering in her eyes. Feeling uneasy, she slowly stepped forward and bowed.
"Cuiyu greets Sect Leader Tang! Greetings to all the sect leaders!"
"Like Junlan, Cuiyu has only been in the sect for nine months, but she has assisted Junlan and other senior brothers and sisters in completing countless entrusted tasks."
