Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill-Chapter 929 - 436: Accepted by a Renowned Master (Part 2)
"Li Yunjing!"
Master Qin's voice was calm and solemn, "Do you know why I have summoned you here?"
Li Yunjing felt a tightness in his heart and quickly said, "Disciple is dull-witted, I ask the Palace Master to enlighten me."
"The leader of the 'Purple Cloud Faction'?"
Master Qin gave him a deep look and said flatly, "You've made quite a stir within the sect lately!"
"Uh..."
Li Yunjing's heart sank, secretly thinking that it was indeed because of this matter.
This could be the end of him!
He quickly explained, "Palace Master, please discern, disciple did not intend to cause trouble, but the other factions acted too wantonly, forcing this disciple to take action..."
"No need to explain!"
Master Qin interrupted him, his tone still calm, "I am not here to punish you."
"Ah?"
Li Yunjing was stunned, looking up at Master Qin, his eyes full of confusion.
"Your progress over the past decade has been significant."
Master Qin continued, "I have witnessed your actions. You have managed to stir the East Sea single-handedly and even slain several Golden Core Realm cultivators; this has truly made me see you in a new light."
Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing felt a slight relief but still dared not be careless, respectfully saying, "Disciple has merely done his duty and dare not claim the credit."
"Hmm!"
Master Qin nodded, "Your attitude is commendable. However, your 'Purple Cloud Faction' has been too conspicuous lately; what exactly do you intend?"
"Uh..."
Li Yunjing hesitated upon hearing this, cautiously saying, "With the Sect Leader Venerable breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm, it is only a matter of time before he steps down for cultivation, and this disciple wishes to take charge of the 'Shenxiao Dao Sect' and serve the sect!"
"You do have courage!"
Master Qin's gaze was profound, slowly saying, "I have decided to officially appoint you as the First Steward of the 'Seven Star Palace,' responsible for all matters big and small within the 'Seven Star Palace!'"
This command meant taking over Xu Wuyi to become the most authoritative figure within the "Seven Star Palace!"
That was indeed a great benefit!
It was Master Qin's nurturing of Li Yunjing!
"This..."
Li Yunjing was shocked to hear this and quickly cupped his hands, "Disciple will definitely exert all efforts to live up to the Palace Master's expectations!"
After a pause, Li Yunjing braced himself and added, "But this disciple often goes out for training and is not one to sit still; will this not hinder the development of the 'Seven Star Palace'?"
"No worries! I will have Xu Wuyi assist you!"
Master Qin nodded, then took out a token from his sleeve and handed it to Li Yunjing, "This is the 'Seven-Star Order.' With this order, you can mobilize the arrays of the 'Seven Star Palace.' Take it and proceed with caution."
"Thank you, Palace Master! Disciple will surely defend the honor of the 'Seven Star Palace' with all my might!"
Li Yunjing received the "Seven-Star Order," feeling the might and power contained within, his heart full of excitement.
This token not only represented authority but also represented Master Qin's trust and expectations of him.
At the same time, it marked the turning point for Li Yunjing from a marginal figure to becoming the most core true disciple and sect steward of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect!"
With this qualification, Li Yunjing was even more confident in vying for the seat of Sect Leader Venerable.
After all, within the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," holding a high position wasn't all about combat power; leadership was the primary choice!
Those who only knew how to fight and kill, they were war generals and could not become the commanders-in-chief of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect!"
Li Yunjing knew this was Master Qin paving the way for him!
This made Li Yunjing quite moved!
He never expected such a strict person like Master Qin to be so kind to him! 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Li Yunjing even felt somewhat at a loss.
Master Qin glanced at him, his tone slightly softened, "Li Yunjing, the hope of the sect's future lies with you young people. I hope you can live up to expectations and achieve great merits for the sect."
Li Yunjing nodded heavily, "Disciple will do his utmost and shall not let down the Palace Master!"
"By the way! I have accepted eight disciples over the years; my lifelong wish is to have nine disciples for perfection! You have great potential; would you be willing to become a disciple under my tutelage?"
When Li Yunjing thought the conversation was over, he never expected Master Qin to suddenly say such a thing!
This took Li Yunjing by great surprise!
Li Yunjing was stunned, momentarily unable to react.
Master Qin actually wanted to take him as a disciple?
This was a tremendous opportunity!
It's known that as the master of the "Seven Star Palace," Master Qin's cultivation was unfathomable and his status immeasurably noble.
His disciples were all top prodigies within the sect, future core figures of the sect.
If he could be taken under Master Qin's tutelage, it would not only mean he would receive Master Qin's personal guidance but also mean his status within the sect would be thoroughly solidified and even ascend to great heights!
The benefits were too great!
There was no reason to refuse!
Unless one is a fool!
Li Yunjing was overjoyed, but dared not show the slightest inappropriateness on the surface.
He took a deep breath, solemnly knelt down, and respectfully said, "Disciple Li Yunjing, willing to take the Palace Master as a teacher! This life, I will do my utmost to not fail the expectations of my mentor!"
"Bang bang bang..."
It was nine heavy kowtows!
To show respect for his mentor, Li Yunjing did not use mana to protect his head and just kowtowed firmly on the ground!
Master Qin looked at Li Yunjing kneeling on the ground, a trace of satisfaction flitting through his eyes.
"This kid is indeed an honest person!"
Master Qin nodded slightly and gently flicked, supporting Li Yunjing's body and allowing him to stand straight.
"Good, from today on, you are my ninth direct disciple."
Master Qin's deep voice resounded.
