Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Has the Ancestral Grave Caught on Fire? (Begging for Continued Reading!!)_1"You see?" Wenren Pingxin was half-reclining, covered with a thick quilt. Perhaps because the quilt was too short, her straight left leg was half-exposed, white and tender as snow, incomparably delicate. Su Bei raised his head to look at Wenren Pingxin and sighed, "Is recruitment really so competitive? Isn’t it good enough just to rely on the sect’s powerful strength?" "..." Wenren Pingxin pursed her lips dismissively, her beautiful eyes swirling as she gazed at Su Bei and said softly, "Bei Bei, let me ask you. Which of these 985 Sects is bad?" "..." Su Bei answered without hesitation, "The Sword Sect..." However, upon seeing Wenren Pingxin’s eyes filled with murderous intent—as if she would draw her sword and kill him in the next moment—he instinctively shivered and quickly added, "The Sword Sect and the other 985 Sects are all quite good; there’s no difference." Hearing Su Bei’s reply, Wenren Pingxin nodded in satisfaction, then gently turned over and continued, "The strength of these sects is not bad. Moreover, the last Immortal to ascend during the Cataclysm of Ten Thousand Clans integrated many sects, leading to their comprehensive development. They no longer focus on single aspects as they did a thousand years ago... "And our Sword Sect suffered from this. We lack comprehensive capabilities and have only the sword. That’s one of the reasons why our student sources are dwindling. "After all, those not interested in swordsmanship don’t even consider joining us, and for those who do want to practice swords... other sects offer that too..." Su Bei nodded thoughtfully and then said, "So you mean to say that when it comes to recruitment, any means are acceptable?" Hearing this, Wenren Pingxin’s eyes brightened. Standing up from the couch, she said softly, "What do you mean by ’any means’? We are preserving the sword heritage for the Twenty-One Provinces. The Way of Sword, its inheritance, absolutely must not be broken! Our Sword Sect’s untransmitted Qingping Sword has already been lost; the Sword Dao cannot be lost..." "..." Afterward, a couple of somewhat sleazy chuckles echoed through the room. ... After parting with Wenren Pingxin, Su Bei frowned, pondering all the feasible plans in his mind. Soon, a cold smile appeared on his handsome and suave face—he was like a jade tree standing in the wind, loved by all, with peerless good looks, a commanding presence, and an elegant demeanor. As the soul of Blue Star, he was well-versed in the gimmicks of advertising. Compete with me in marketing? The disciples were all shocked, gazing at the Fifth Elder, whose body exuded an extraordinary aura, and they couldn’t help but swallow hard. An inexplicable feeling suddenly gripped their hearts, sending shivers down their spines. It seemed as if, in the next second, someone in this world was about to suffer a merciless blow from fate... As Su Bei was organizing and combining over eighteen thousand marketing strategies in his mind, a pleasant voice suddenly resonated in his head. "DING!" "Congratulations to the host. Your eldest disciple has successfully cultivated Qi Feeling." "Achievement for the first disciple completed, rewarded with one Dice of Destiny." "Congratulations to the host for obtaining a five thousand one hundred sixty-seven-fold feedback, adding five thousand one hundred sixty-seven to your cultivation." "Current cultivation level: Mid Stage of Divinity Transformation. Eighty-six million, six hundred ten thousand more experience needed to break through to the Late Stage of Divinity Transformation." Su Bei felt a faint sensation of Qi emanating from his body, and the long-stagnant Qi Sea within him seemed to ripple slightly. He took a deep breath and remarked with a sigh of mixed feelings, Truly a Child of Destiny. She has cultivated Qi Feeling in just a moment? Remarkable, remarkable. I wonder which cultivation technique she is practicing... Su Bei walked with his hands behind his back, stepping on auspicious clouds, and leisurely flew toward No-Sword Peak. Only a dazzling light remained in the sky above. ... 「No-Sword Peak, Thatched Cottage.」 Xiao Ruoching took a deep breath. She then calmed the urge to chop off Su Bei’s head and send it floating across the ocean. Her beautiful eyes gazed indifferently at the well-worn Sword Scripture before her. I’ve truly taken the first step on my path of cultivation. Sword Scripture! Sword Scripture! In this life, I must completely master this cultivation technique! Then, she stretched lazily, extending her graceful body. The black stockings wrapped around her long, jade-like legs possessed a strange allure, yet her expression seemed somewhat gloomy. She leaned back in the rocking chair, her eyes complex as they rested on the scattered scraps of paper on the ground, looking at those words she had shredded, which now glared back at her. Words like: "Give up, child, the path of cultivation is not for you." "Falling off a cliff can lead to finding a cultivation technique? Has your ancestral grave caught fire?" And then there were the sentences she had read with relish before: "The so-called destiny cultivation method, briefly known as ’jump off a cliff and survive to gain future blessings’." "The so-called protagonist should possess a spirit that soars above the world, with the gallant heart of a hero." ... Suddenly, a spark of inspiration flashed in her mind! The next moment, as if she had thought of something, her breath grew heavy. She got down from the rocking chair and carefully examined the torn pieces of paper. Then, with trembling hands, she rearranged the words: "Falling off a cliff can lead to finding a cultivation technique? Briefly known as ’jump off a cliff and survive to gain future blessings’." "The so-called destiny cultivation method, the ancestral grave has caught fire." "The so-called protagonist should possess a spirit that soars above the world, with the gallant heart of a hero." "..." Xiao Ruoching’s eyes widened, her long eyelashes fluttering as she gently stood up, gazing towards a spot not far from No-Sword Peak. If her memories from the previous life were correct... then that should be the ancestral graves of all previous peak masters of No-Sword Peak! Her breathing became hurried, heavy. Then, a cold smirk, anticipating the sweet taste of vengeance, touched the corners of Xiao Ruoching’s lips. In just an instant! A perfect plan took shape in Xiao Ruoching’s mind. She had already confirmed that no matter what she did now, Su Bei would not lay a hand on her! That meant—even if she turned the heavens upside down, for the sake of her Innate Taoist Body, for the sake of his forbearance, there would be no problem. The ancestral graves of each peak within the Sword Sect were considered the sacred grounds of legacy for each generation! Although merely a formality, every time new disciples were recruited, the new disciples of each peak had to pay homage to the ancestral graves. The importance of the ancestral graves within the Sword Sect could not be overstated! —So what if... the ancestral graves of No-Sword Peak caught fire? According to the rules of the Sword Sect’s Enforcement Hall, Su Bei would surely face severe punishment! He would very likely be confined to the Cliff of Contemplation for several decades. This way, Su Bei would lose his qualification to preside over the Sword Sect’s recruitment assembly. And without its ancestral graves, No-Sword Peak would never attract new disciples. Junior Sister Mo Li would then have no chance of joining No-Sword Peak. And I, during these decades, could break through without any disturbance... This is simply killing three birds with one stone! Gazing at the tattered remains of "The Protagonist Must Cultivate This Technique" before her, Xiao Ruoching smiled sweetly, her beautiful eyes brimming, as she murmured to herself, "Master, oh Master. Your disciple is cultivating precisely according to this cultivation technique you provided! To cultivate destiny, let’s start by setting the ancestral grave on fire... Your disciple has yet to avenge her family and is desperate to cultivate; there’s absolutely nothing wrong with following the technique you gave me to the letter... And this technique did say it could be damaged by some indescribable external forces. Your disciple was heartbroken, so she pieced it back together... That’s correct, isn’t it?" Wrong order? What order? The order I read is this one!
