Mission: Seduce the Master!

For the sect leader of the Sect of Heavenly Sword, Lian Lin, it was an ordinary working day. She, as usual, went through papers and studied news related to the external world.

However, today promised to be eventful. She received a letter from the grand elder of the Sect of Starry Stream, stating:

"Xu Mei stole the technique of our sect and destroyed the leader's estate; more than ten disciples were injured! We demand explanations!"

Lian Lin was speechless. She woke up in a good mood, thinking it would be a regular working day, but it seemed her Master wouldn't allow her to enjoy her well-deserved break!

"Master... why don't you just have fun with that charming boy and not cause me trouble?" Lian Lin muttered gloomily, setting aside the letter.

Her red eyes looked tired, and her long green hair was disheveled, as she barely had time to take care of herself.

"Sometimes I just want to retire and live carefreely like the Master... why did I agree to become the sect leader at all? It was clearly a trap," she thought, sighing heavily.

"Why the sigh?"

"Huh?"

Lian Lin widened her eyes and turned her head with a flattering smile. Xu Mei sat on the couch, casually drinking expensive spiritual wine poured into a glass by Lian Lin and planning to finish it.

"Master..."

"Hm? What's up?"

"This is actually my wine..."

"And?"

"Well, nothing..."

The sect leader sighed heavily and shook her head. Although she felt a bit hurt that Xu Mei gulped down such expensive wine in one go, she couldn't say "no" to her. Because she wouldn't be listened to anyway...

Asking Xu Mei to wait, Lian Lin went to her room and changed. Now she was dressed in a black robe with golden inserts, on which was the inscription "sect leader." Her green hair was neatly tied in a high ponytail.

After Lian Lin changed, she looked much more imposing, enhancing her aura significantly.

However, these changes did not affect Xu Mei. She had long finished the wine.

"My wine..." Lian Lin thought with a pang in her heart, grabbing her slender chest. She then shifted her gaze to Xu Mei and, seeing her two massive peaks, sank into even greater melancholy. "So irritating..."

Xu Mei didn't understand her reaction but didn't inquire. She just asked Lian Lin to sit next to her.

"Hm? Why does the Master look so strange? Besides... what's wrong with this sweet atmosphere around her?" Lian Lin was puzzled.

She nodded and sat next to Xu Mei, who looked to the right and left, then fake-coughed, glanced at Lian Lin with the corner of her eye, and spoke in a quiet, almost mosquito-like voice.

"This... um, I would like to ask you for love advice... you do have someone, don't you?"

Although Xu Mei spoke very quietly, being a cultivator with a high level of cultivation, Lian Lin heard her as if the woman was speaking directly into her ear. What she heard left the girl in shock.

"She... is asking me for love advice?" Lian Lin was puzzled, examining Xu Mei from head to toe. Xu Mei blushed and avoided eye contact. Lian was speechless, her face stretched from the shock: "The most talented cultivator in ten thousand years, the one who bears the title 'Heavenly Sword' and the founder of the Sect of Heavenly Sword... blushes and asks her disciple for love advice?!"

For Lian Lin, it was like someone telling her that a pig had ascended to the heavens as an Immortal and became the Heavenly Emperor! It was just absurd!

She swallowed hard when she realized that Xu Mei wasn't joking. Now Lian Lin began to doubt her life, but that wasn't the main issue...

"How in hell am I supposed to give you love advice?! I've never held a man's hand in my life, let alone been in a relationship!" Lian Lin thought, almost crying.

...The story of her lover began when they celebrated a major victory in the regional competitions in the Huanglun Dynasty. The sect elders organized a feast, and they drank expensive wine. At that time, Lian Lin suppressed her Qi for a while to not lose the drunkenness effect and, slightly intoxicated, started talking.

As the other elders were in relationships, they questioned her about it, and she couldn't come up with anything better than to lie.

Thus, a shameful story stuck with her. Upon learning about it, Xu Mei tried to interrogate her and get to know her lover, but Lian Lin came up with various stories to divert attention from the situation.

Since Xu Mei didn't want to pressure her disciple, she decided to let it go, considering that Lian Lin was a grown woman who could handle her own life.

And now...

"Oh, my karma! I'll have to suffer for deception, and knowing my Master's character, if she finds out about my lie, I'll suffer a hundred times worse!" Lian Lin thought in despair, but outwardly, she looked carefree.

And then, Xu Mei, who still hadn't heard a response from her disciple even after five minutes, frowned and looked puzzled at Lian Lin, who could only sigh.

"If I'm going to play, I'll play to the end!" she thought and then began to speak aloud: "In relationships, it's important..."

Xie Qing smiled brightly and stood up from his seat. He clenched his fist, and a cracking sound echoed. He had successfully reached the Foundation Building stage!

"I did it!" he thought and smirked. "My task is to catch up with my rotten elder brother, Xie Xui, who was at the peak of Qi Condensation, which is infinitely close to the Core Formation stage."

It took Xie Xui a whopping 55 years to achieve such a level of cultivation, which, though a beautiful number, wasn't the best result. Attaining the Qi Condensation stage at 55, even if it's the peak, was above average.

Xie Qing used to envy such talent before, but now...

"I'll catch up to him... and then shove his face right into the public toilet," he thought with a serious expression. Then muttered, "No one took away my adult book and got away with it... not only took it, but he also burned it! A bastard who doesn't appreciate art!"

...his thoughts were going in the wrong direction, but as long as it gave his motivation, let it be.

After a short rest, Xie Qing took out a bronze-colored token from his pocket. The token was hexagonal, with a Chinese sword depicted in the center, surrounded by clouds. The color of the token was bronze, indicating the lowest level.

However, that wasn't the main point. Xie Qing released his Qi, directing it into the token. Then, information appeared in his mind.

[Contribution Points: 150

[Status: Outer court disciple

[Master: Elder Xu Mei]

"Here I am, a beggar..." thought Xie Qing with a static expression, rolling his eyes. "Wait, what was I even expecting? I haven't completed a single mission in four years, so now I'm a beggar... not surprising."

Contribution Points are the internal currency accepted in every sect. To avoid significant differences among disciples due to varying financial levels, sect leaders decided to implement a rule.

If someone wants to buy something within the sect, they need to spend Contribution Points, which can be earned by completing tasks. A very simple but effective system.

"Although, the wealthy can just obtain techniques from the external world," Xie Qing thought, rolling his eyes again. "In this way, the gap between the rich and the poor was enormous."
