They never imagined things would turn out this way.
It's like going from heaven to hell in an instant.
A group of people couldn't help but look at Pei Yunyan, their eyes filled with pleading.
The Grand Elder is usually very gentle...
Could you put in a good word for them?
Pei Yunyan snapped out of her turmoil, but didn't even look at the elders. She breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Lin Xuan, and her eyes were filled with unprecedented respect and awe.
Indeed, there are no simple characters in the Primordial Holy Heaven, and those who can become the head of the academy are by no means mediocre.
" Academy Master Lin, what should we do with these traitors?"
Lin Xuan turned to look at the group of elders and disciples who were pleading, his gaze icy.
He came to take over the Nine Luminaries Saint Sect. The Primordial Holy Heaven is currently extremely weak, and many Holy Master students have left, but that doesn't mean they are willing to take in just anyone.
"Our Primordial Holy Heaven has no traitors, let alone slaves of other sects."
In a single sentence, the future of these elders was decided.
Their expressions changed drastically. Disregarding their dignity... or rather, they had no dignity at all. They knelt down with a thud, crawled to Lin Xuan, and begged desperately.
"Spare me! Dean Lin, spare me!"
"We know we were wrong, Dean Lin, please spare us! We were just trying to save our lives!"
"Please have mercy, Dean Lin!"
Unfortunately, Lin Xuan has never been one to be swayed by the words "survival".
Just like those people from the Primordial Holy Heaven back then.
Before the war began, many students and holy masters left the Primordial Holy Heaven.
Most of these people returned to their own sects or forces, unwilling to share the hardships with the Primordial Holy Heaven, but they also did not choose to kick it when it was down.
Therefore, even though they ultimately won, neither Lin Xuan nor the old dean chose to settle scores.
To survive.
This is only human nature.
That's understandable.
But those who betrayed the Primordial Slaying Alliance all died on that land, buried alongside the Nine Luminaries Ancestor!
These elders before us could have chosen to make a living on their own before the war began, or to leave the Nine Luminaries Saint Sect and defect to the enemy, but they did not.
Not only did they not do that, they chose to destroy the last hope of the Nine Luminaries Saint Sect, trample it underfoot, use it as a stepping stone, and kneel before the enemy like a dog.
Such a person is utterly depraved.
He should be killed.
Zheng--
A sword light flashed across the sky, and all those who had betrayed the sect were killed on the spot, with no survivors.
No one thought Lin Xuan was cruel.
When these elders tore through the great formation and delivered their lives into the hands of the Great Saint, they had already committed countless cruel acts!
Pei Yushuang, watching this scene from a distance, felt both excited and frustrated.
The good news is that everyone survived, and my aunt is alright too; this is the best possible outcome.
What frustrated her was realizing that Lin Xuan was a powerful figure in the Sword Domain. She remembered that he had once said he wanted to take her as his disciple. Although she didn't despise or offend him, she had indeed refused.
Only now does she realize what a wonderful fortuitous opportunity she had turned down!
Pei Yushuang bit her lip tightly, wishing she could go back in time and take back what she had said, but there's no going back in this world.
She lowered her head, her face flushed, and she was filled with deep regret.
Lin Xuan also noticed Pei Yushuang beside him at this moment, and pondered for a moment.
Pei Yushuang's aptitude is indeed remarkable.
His temperament is also quite good.
Even though she didn't think she could teach her anything at the time, she remained polite and made all the arrangements meticulously.
His physical condition is also quite good...
"If you wish to do so in the future, you may seek me out in the Primordial Holy Heaven."
As Pei Yushuang looked up, Lin Xuan spoke calmly.
Pei Yushuang's eyes widened immediately.
No, is there really such a thing as a "regret pill" in this world?
To hell with the Primordial Holy Heaven!
Without hesitation, she immediately knelt down.
She bit her red lips tightly.
"If you do not despise me, Senior, I am willing to become your disciple and serve you."
If she waited until she went to the Primordial Holy Heaven to find him, it would be too late. Now, the Sword Domain experts had given her a second chance. If she didn't seize it, Pei Yushuang would hate herself to death.
Lin Xuan smiled slightly.
"Hmm, I'll accept you as my disciple."
Get up.
They gained another disciple, opening up another investment channel, and also took over the Nine Luminaries Saint Sect, winning the hearts of thousands and intimidating the Great Saint...
This can be considered a successful fulfillment of the old dean's instructions.
He casually lifted Pei Yushuang Pei Yushuang with his Spiritual Power, and after a moment's thought, tossed a Storage Bag into her hand.
"Since you have become my disciple, then this item is bestowed upon you."
Consider it a formal apprenticeship ceremony.
Even without the formal apprenticeship ceremony, Pei Yushuang was already happy, let alone with one.
She probed her Storage Bag with her Divine Sense, and what she saw there stunned her.
"This... this is..."
Pei Yushuang's lips trembled slightly; she was overwhelmed with joy and didn't know how to react, looking completely dazed.
Just now, Lin Xuan gave her the Pure Source Great Dao Treasure Scroll.
This was still the same Half-Saint level Cultivation Method that we obtained from the Primordial Slaying Alliance and others last time.
Although the Nine Luminaries Saint Sect has many Cultivation Method, Cultivation Method of this level are not something that can be obtained casually.
Although she is a saintess, the Cultivation Method she may have come into contact with are at most at the Thearch Realm.
At the time, the Nine Luminaries Ancestor wasn't entirely at ease with the Pei Household.
This Cultivation Method is now perfect for me to study and comprehend.
Lin Xuan had his reasons for bestowing this method upon Lin Xuan.
The reason he didn't bestow the Lineage with Immortal Grade Cultivation Method was because the Immortal Grade Cultivation Method he possessed were too terrifying. Unlike the previous Immortal Grade sword manual, the disciples couldn't easily cultivate them. Even he himself had to cultivate for a year under the protection of his ancestor before he could fully comprehend them.
Giving it to them now would only lead their spiritual practice astray.
At the very least, they would need to reach the cultivation level of Great Emperor before they could comprehend it.
"Since it's given to you, then accept it." Lin Xuan said calmly, then beckoned to Qu Youmeng and the others, "These are your senior sisters. Our sect is called Sword Pavilion, and from now on, you will be the ninth disciple of the Sword Pavilion."
Qu Youmeng and the others smiled slightly at Pei Yushuang.
"Hello, junior sister."
Pei Yushuang gripped the Storage Bag tightly in her hand, her face full of gratitude, and nodded emphatically.
"Thank you, Master!"
"And... I've met a few senior female disciples!"
Pei Yunyan never expected that her niece would have such fortuitous opportunity, and of course she could only be happy.
She let out a soft breath, reverting to her decisive and efficient demeanor as the Grand Elder, and began to organize and arrange the affairs of the sect.
After an internal strife, the sect is now in complete disarray and needs rebuilding. Now that a powerful figure from the Primordial Holy Heaven is in charge, she must quickly clean up this mess.
Pei Yushuang was also taken aside by Qu Youmeng and the others, who explained the matter of the Sword Pavilion to her in detail.
Lin Xuan, on the other hand, checked the rebates he had received from his system.
But this time, the rebate came with something rather special...
