Shi Xuan's words resonated deeply with him. As the head of a sect, what he most wanted to see was all his disciples living in harmony and making progress together.
However, in the cultivation world, if someone doesn't reveal their unique techniques or skills, you can't say they're wrong, since it's what they rely on for survival.
However, if there were more cultivators like Tong Xuan who were willing to communicate, not only their Lianfeng Sword Sect, but the overall level of the entire Qianyuan Western Region would be improved.
Seeing their Qian Yuan Continent being crushed by the strength of other continents in the outer realms, Shi Mingxiu naturally hoped that the people of their continent could exchange resources and make progress together, improving their cultivation and techniques.
Hearing that Shi Xuan had produced a second-tier disciple sword at Lin Zhengfeng, he wanted to come and join in the fun, but unexpectedly overheard Shi Xuan's words.
He had said long ago that the fact that the Lianfeng Sword Sect had accepted Shi Xuan as a disciple meant that the sect's luck had turned around.
Since she came along, the disciples of the entire sect have been in a completely different spirit.
She led a few disciples from her own Fuyu Peak and a group of disciples from Baicao Peak, running very fast. Now it was Lin Zheng Peak's turn.
Shi Mingxiu sighed for the umpteenth time, thanking the Divine Cauldron Sect for not taking him in, which allowed them to find Shi Xuan.
Good disciples benefit the entire sect; conversely, a bad apple can be the fuse that causes the sect's decline.
Look at Fan Hongde's good daughter. No matter how many resources are placed in front of her, it's all in vain. Because of her flawed character, everything she does is a waste of effort, and may even have the opposite effect. Now that she has fallen into demonic possession, she has thrown the sect into chaos and disrupted its normal order. It seems that decline is not far away. Let's see what Fan Hongde chooses.
When the disciples in the main hall saw their sect leader enter, they all stood up and made way for him.
Shi Mingxiu walked straight up to Shi Xuan, picked up her two long swords and examined them closely, his eyes also showing surprise.
This second-tier disciple sword was both familiar and unfamiliar. It was a regular sword that the Lianfeng Sword Sect disciples saw every day, but this was the first time he had ever seen a second-tier one.
The other golden sword was upgraded from the second tier to the third tier.
Shi Mingxiu was even more surprised: "They've even produced third-tier ones? Are they trying to make fourth-tier ones now?"
Shi Xuan continued working with his hands and said with a smile, "Didn't the sect leader guess as expected? With this new discovery, it's natural to want to try it out more."
"Excellent! What we at the Lianfeng Sword Sect most encourage is your spirit of continuous innovation!"
It was clear that Shi Mingxiu was very happy; he was beaming with joy.
After finishing the materials in his hand, Shi Xuan switched to another type and continued working on it. He joked with Shi Mingxiu, "Is the sect leader planning to reward me again?"
"A reward! A reward is a must! Just tell me what you want!" Shi Mingxiu was in a very good mood. Getting a reward was easy enough. Besides, he hadn't figured out how to express his gratitude to Shi Xuan for the Ling Shen Pill she gave him yesterday. So, if she wanted something, there was no reason not to refuse.
Shi Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Then I will ask the sect leader for a special pardon."
"What amnesty?" Shi Mingxiu was a little puzzled. Why would she need an amnesty? Given her contributions to the sect, even if she had caused some trouble, she shouldn't have been punished so severely.
So what does it mean that this child wants a pardon? Or has he made some mistake and is afraid of being punished? Could it be that the punishment of being sent to the Cliff of Repentance last time left him with psychological trauma?
Shi Mingxiu couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He thought that blowing up the dining hall wasn't a big deal, so why punish him by sending him to the Cliff of Repentance? What if he complained to the sect about it?
Thinking this through, Shi Mingxiu concluded that the sect had not given Shi Xuan enough security. He quickly looked at Shi Xuan with sincere eyes and said softly, "Don't feel pressured. Our Lianfeng Sword Sect will not let you down."
Judging from his expression, Shi Xuan could roughly guess what he was thinking, thinking to himself that the sect leader was quite good at adding drama to his life.
She gave Shi Mingxiu a reassuring smile and said, "Sect Master, please don't make wild guesses. I'm very well-behaved, so there's no pressure at all."
"Then what do you need a pardon for?"
"Just in case," Shi Xuan said with a playful expression, "I want one that I can use myself, and that I can also give to others to use!"
Shi Mingxiu carefully examined Shi Xuan's expression and realized that she was serious, so he took her words seriously.
It's just a pardon, nothing particularly valuable. For the sect leader, there are as many as he could want.
“A pardon is simple; I can give you one right now,” Shi Mingxiu stroked his beard and said, “But let’s get this straight: the sect has seven rules regarding pardons. Those who betray their master and ancestors will not be pardoned; those who harm their fellow disciples will not be pardoned; those who disregard human ethics will not be pardoned; those who disregard human life will not be pardoned; those who stray from the right path will not be pardoned; those who violate the laws of heaven will not be pardoned; and those who aid and abet evil will not be pardoned. Are you aware of these rules?”
Shi Xuan nodded. All those "seven unpardonable offenses" and "eight unpardonable offenses" basically mean that if someone commits a serious offense that even the sect can't or doesn't want to cover for, then it's unacceptable.
Seeing that she agreed, Shi Mingxiu immediately and readily took out the pardon and handed it to Shi Xuan.
This thing is great! What is this that she wants? No one in the sect has ever used this thing in all these years. Major crimes are unforgivable, and minor mistakes are punished with insignificant penalties. Shi Mingxiu couldn't understand why she was wasting such a great opportunity to reap benefits just to get a pardon that costs the sect nothing.
Shi Mingxiu felt sorry for her, and after thinking about it, he took out another pardon: "Here, here are two, don't be stingy with them."
Shi Xuan's lips twitched. What kind of good stuff is this? And she doesn't even need to use it sparingly? Is this encouraging her to do something naughty again? What kind of sect leader encourages his disciples like this? He really is a show-off who doesn't care about making things worse. Does he think all he can do is blow up the dining hall?
"Thank you, Sect Master," she said, her hands still busy processing materials, taking the amnesty decree with her and putting it away.
Who would issue a pardon for a minor mistake? This hard-earned item must be used in crucial moments.
In fact, Shi Xuan originally thought of Lu Wenxing, her second senior brother, who had demon blood and was related to the [New Life], so there was no guarantee that something might happen later.
With a pardon in hand, his safety should be guaranteed.
A bloodline that he couldn't decide for himself, and not within the sect's seven unpardonable laws, now that he had the amnesty decree in hand, it was at least an extra layer of protection.
Her second senior brother is so foolish, she has to worry about him a lot.
