Master’s Plan to Revitalize the Demon Sect with Beautiful Girls - Chapter 15
Chapter 15: Punishment
Inside the Qingshan Sect.
Lin Qingxue was kneeling on the ground with her head lowered, waiting for her master’s reprimand.
Her master was a man who looked very serious, wearing the elder’s attire of the Qingshan Sect, with a sword hanging at his waist.
This man, named Wanzhu, had many disciples in the Qingshan Sect and often taught them to eliminate evil and promote good, which was quite commendable.
Lin Qingxue usually admired such a righteous master and felt that he was someone she truly wanted to learn from.
“Qingxue, you actually let that demon girl escape.” Wanzhu said with a tone of disappointment, “Do you know that once that demon girl is released, she will definitely harm others?”
“I know my mistake.” Lin Qingxue did not dare to lift her head, she also felt that she had made a big mistake this time.
Yulan was a demon girl who drank the blood of living people, and her existence would harm others.
“I chased her to the Tianyan Sect, but lost track of her.” Lin Qingxue said, pursing her lips.
“I’ve heard your explanation.” Wanzhu flicked his sleeve, showing no intention of forgiving Lin Qingxue.
“I thought you had a sense of justice, which is why I entrusted you with this task from the government.” He said, pausing, “But you have disappointed me greatly.”
The Qingshan Sect was a renowned righteous sect near Baicheng and had many collaborations with the Baicheng government.
Sometimes, disciples like Lin Qingxue, who enjoyed training outside, would handle matters related to cultivators for the Baicheng government. This time, capturing Yulan was a classic case.
“This time, the Baicheng government is very disappointed in us, and I believe the people will also have many complaints about us.” Wanzhu sighed deeply.
Reputation is important. The Qingshan Sect’s reputation was significantly affected by letting such a vicious demon girl escape.
Lin Qingxue suddenly raised her head, “Please, Master, punish me!!!!”
“Punish? What good will punishing you do now?” Wanzhu shook his head, “This matter…”
“Father, I believe Junior Sister is also suffering internally, please forgive her.” At this moment, a graceful young man in white, holding a folding fan, walked over.
“Rui Cai, weren’t you cultivating?” Wanzhu’s expression softened considerably upon seeing his son.
“Senior Brother!” Lin Qingxue couldn’t help but be overjoyed upon seeing this young man in white.
This young man in white was her master’s son, and the female disciples of Qingshan Sect all admired him greatly.
Even Lin Qingxue admired him, after all, Wan Ruicai not only had exceptional talent but also a handsome face that added to his charm.
He had been cultivating for just over forty years and had already reached the Core Formation stage, which was astonishing.
It should be known that many cultivators never reach the Core Formation stage in their lifetime, and even if they do, they are nearly a hundred years old.
Lin Qingxue’s master was in the late Core Formation stage and was already a hundred years old.
Wan Ruicai might not be comparable to those prodigies, but he was proud enough in Qingshan Sect.
Lin Qingxue had just barely entered the Foundation Establishment stage and didn’t know when she would break through to the Core Formation stage.
“Father, I’ve reached a bottleneck in my cultivation, so I came to see you.” Wan Ruicai said with a smile.
“A bottleneck… I see. If there’s anything you don’t understand, ask the other seniors for their insights.” Wanzhu said dotingly to his son, “If you need more pills…”
“I’ll get them myself.” Wan Ruicai nodded, answering before his father could finish.
“I heard outside just now that Qingxue said she lost track of the demoness at Tianyan Sect.” He said softly, “It must be that sect sheltering the demoness.”
“Tianyan Sect…” Wanzhu murmured.
Younger people might not know this demonic sect, but having lived for a hundred years, he naturally knew.
In the past, this demonic sect produced many demons, causing the major righteous sects to tremble in fear.
Fortunately, Tianyan Sect seemed to have declined due to traitors.
Subsequently, the cultivators of Tianyan Sect fell one by one, including those of ancestor level.
People said it was because of internal strife within Tianyan Sect that led to the massacre, and Wanzhu agreed with this explanation.
After all, so many cultivators wouldn’t fall for no reason; internal strife was the only possibility.
“This demonic sect has fallen to just a few people.” He pondered.
“Why don’t we visit them another day, and then search for the demoness again?” Wan Ruicai squinted his eyes and said softly, “Last time, Junior Sister probably didn’t search thoroughly.”
“I…” Lin Qingxue wanted to explain, but upon reflection, she realized she had indeed been too scared to search many places.
So her momentum weakened, and she couldn’t say anything more.
“But if they were really sheltering the demoness, they would have let her leave by now.” She finally said weakly.
No one would be foolish enough to keep a scourge in their sect, especially since Tianyan Sect was so weak, they couldn’t afford any blows.
“My intuition tells me that the demoness is still in Tianyan Sect.” Wan Ruicai said confidently, his tone making people believe him involuntarily.

“In a few days, I will personally visit.” he said, “I also want to see what Tianyan Sect is like.”
“Qingxue, why don’t you quickly thank your senior brother Ruitai?” Wanzhu shouted.
At this moment, Lin Qingxue finally reacted, “Thank you, senior brother!”
“This time, for Ruitai’s sake, I won’t punish you severely.” Wanzhu said in a very stern tone, “But you still have to go to the sacrificial altar in the main hall to reflect on your mistakes. You can only go back to rest the next day.”
“Disciple accepts the punishment.” Lin Qingxue accepted the punishment honestly, without any complaints.
This punishment could be considered quite light, a symbolic punishment that didn’t hurt or itch.
If it weren’t for Wan Ruitai speaking for her, it wouldn’t have been impossible for her to be left on the mountain for half a month.
“Junior sister, in the upcoming rookie competition, you must do your best for our Qingshan Sect.” Wan Ruitai patted her shoulder and said in a kind tone, “You are the most outstanding disciple in the Foundation Establishment stage of our sect, I have high hopes for you.”
Although Wan Ruitai looked like he was in his twenties, he was actually in his forties, so it was not strange for him to look at Lin Qingxue with the eyes of an elder.
“Qingxue will definitely do her best!” Lin Qingxue nodded heavily. She didn’t dislike the feeling of being highly expected.
She would definitely shine in the rookie competition and show the people of Baicheng how powerful Qingshan Sect was.
“Go to the main hall, I have something to discuss with Ruitai.” Wanzhu glanced at Lin Qingxue and said.
“Okay, disciple will take my leave.” Lin Qingxue got up, saluted, and then left the room, heading towards the main hall.
