Chapter 430: Is There a Problem?
by AshPurgatory2025After the battle of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect concluded, the fate of the rebels naturally awaited Lin Xun’s judgment.
According to the Sect rules of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, the method for dealing with these rebels was to obliterate them.
This obliteration was not merely physical destruction, but the kind that extinguished both form and spirit.
However, there were simply too many rebels, affecting half of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect.
If all these rebellious halls and peaks were wiped out, the number of Disciples in the Ten Thousand Demon Sect would instantly be halved.
While it is true that a Sect relies on its top-tier combat power for survival,
The stability of a Sect must rely on the number and strength of its Disciples.
If all these rebellious Disciples were handled according to the Sect rules, it would have a significant impact on the operations of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect.
“Even so, since they have violated the rules of the Sect, those who should be killed must still be killed.”
Su Ying scanned the peak Masters and hall Masters on her side within the meeting hall.
Hearing Su Ying’s words, many people fell silent.
Some lowered their heads, while others looked toward Lin Xun on the other side.
Since Lin Xun had returned, naturally, everything had to wait for his decision.
“As for those rebellious hall Masters and peak Masters, let them all undergo Self-dissolution; consider it their final bit of dignity.
Regarding the Disciples…
Some Disciples actually did not want to resist, but under the pressure of the situation, they had no choice but to rebel.
Let the Inner Sect Disciples and Outer Sect Disciples go; give them a chance.
As for the Direct Disciples and True Disciples who might be privy to the secrets of the peaks and halls,
Use the Truth Mantra to ask clearly whether they actively wanted to rebel or if they were forced into it.
For those who actively sought rebellion, let them follow their Masters.”
“Yes!”
Hearing Lin Xun’s command, the various halls and peaks all accepted the order.
As long as Lin Xun was there, they felt extremely at ease.
Even though Her Highness the Saintess was also very formidable and her methods of handling affairs were definitely superior to the Saint’s,
No matter what,
In the face of absolute strength, no matter how brilliant the methods, they were nothing more than a castle in the air.
Not to mention that the current Ten Thousand Demon Sect, which was in a state of neglect, needed a powerful combat force to stabilize the hearts of all the Disciples.
And as long as Lin Xun was present, all the Disciples wouldn’t have to worry about foreign enemies invading at this time and could focus on their duties.
“Then there is the matter of restructuring the Ten Thousand Demon Sect.”
Lin Xun continued.
“I don’t understand the restructuring of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, so I’ll leave it all to Su Ying.
Furthermore, from this day forward, Su Ying is the new Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect. Even when the Old Man wakes up, Su Ying will remain the Sect Master.
Do any of you have any objections to this?”
“Senior Brother… I…”
Su Ying wanted to stand up and say something, but Lin Xun, sitting beside the young girl, gently pressed down on her knee.
“Yes!”
The crowd had no reason to refuse.
Although the Old Sect Master had been forcibly abdicated,
It didn’t really matter.
Moreover, there was a massive difference between an ‘Acting Sect Master’ and a ‘Sect Master.’
As long as Su Ying’s position as ‘Sect Master’ was formalized, even if anyone still had certain ideas, they would have to abandon them.
Especially during this period of restructuring the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, whatever Su Ying wanted to do, she could basically get done.
The only thing that puzzled them was that the returned Saint did not personally take the position of Sect Master.
But on second thought, it wasn’t incomprehensible.
The Saint had always disliked the twists and turns of the Sect; in the past, the Saintess had managed everything for him.
“Regarding the Sect Master’s succession ceremony, the Qingxin Hall will arrange it as soon as possible. Please rest assured, Your Highnesses.” The Master of the Qingxin Hall bowed slightly.
“Then I’ll trouble you, Sister Fang,” Lin Xun thanked her on Su Ying’s behalf.
After assigning a few more tasks, the crowd took their leave.
“Senior Brother… is Senior Brother leaving again?”
When only the Senior Brother and Junior Sister remained in the meeting hall, Su Ying bit her lower lip, her small hands tightly clutching her skirt.
“There are many things waiting for me to do.”
Lin Xun stood up and gently stroked his Junior Sister’s head.
Su Ying leaned her forehead against Lin Xun’s stomach.
“Can’t Senior Brother stay?” The girl’s voice carried a hint of grievance and stubbornness.
“I’m sorry.”
Lin Xun gently caressed his Junior Sister’s hair.
“But once everything is fine, I will come back.
And this time, I should be in the Ten Thousand Demon Sect for a while; there are quite a few things I need to look into.”
Su Ying raised her head slightly and then bumped her head against Lin Xun’s stomach a few more times with a bit of force.
The girl was a bit unhappy because the ‘quite a few things’ Senior Brother had to do were not shared with her.
But Su Ying didn’t ask.
Because Su Ying knew that everything Senior Brother did was for her own good.
However, it was precisely this ‘for her own good’ that Senior Brother did every time that made Su Ying feel there was still a significant distance between her and her Senior Brother.
Su Ying knew that since they were children, her Senior Brother had always viewed her as a sister.
But she didn’t want to just be his Junior Sister, much less be treated like a sister by him.
“Alright, I’ll leave the other matters to you for now. I’m going to slack off.”
Tucking the girl’s cherry-blossom pink hair behind her ear, Lin Xun cupped Su Ying’s smooth face, rubbed it gently a few times, then flicked her forehead before walking out of the meeting hall.
Watching her Senior Brother’s departing back, the girl’s eyes wavered.
Although Senior Brother said he would stay in the Ten Thousand Demon Sect for quite a while,
He would eventually leave.
When he returned next time, who knew when that would be!
Furthermore, there were already so many women around Senior Brother now. Who knew if he would return next time with a child in tow?
When that time came, what would she do?
Su Ying bit her thin cherry lips, her expression filled with a trace of anxiety.
“No! I must take that step with Senior Brother! Otherwise, in the end, I’ll still just be the Junior Sister!”
Half an incense stick later, the girl made up her mind.
“Shadow Fish!”
Su Ying called out softly to the empty meeting hall.
“Sect Master.”
Shadow Fish appeared out of nowhere and knelt on one knee.
“I heard you say that among the assassination legacies you received, there is a Formation that can stir up the other party’s lust, causing them to lose their reason, so you can take the opportunity to assassinate them?”
“Yes.”
“Is that Formation effective against those in the Ascension Realm or above?”
“Regarding the legendary Spirit Refining Realm, this subordinate does not know.
However, even for the Ascension Realm, as long as the target’s body is weak enough, they lack sufficient spiritual energy to resist, or they are extremely relaxed and off-guard, then it might take effect!”
As she spoke, Shadow Fish suddenly realized something and abruptly looked up.
“Your Highness… You… could it be…”
“Say nothing and ask nothing.”
Su Ying said coldly, though the girl’s cheeks had already turned a faint red.
“I want you to teach it to me within five days! Is there a problem?”
“Yes…”
