Chapter 907: Chapter 482: Eighth Life: When in Doubt, Ask the Supreme Elder!
"Sect’s True Inheritor?"
Upon hearing these four words, Lu Yuan’s expression shifted slightly.
As far as he knows.
The status and treatment of a True Disciple are even richer than many Inner Sect Elders; they never have to worry about Cultivation Resources.
However, True Disciples are extremely rare, and generally only those who have made extraordinary contributions to the Sect or who possess exceptional Talent are qualified to become the Sect’s True Inheritor!
When other Cyan Cloud Sect disciples heard this, they cast extremely envious gazes at Lu Yuan.
Because within the Cyan Cloud Sect, the status of a True Disciple is immensely esteemed, not only enjoying various favorable treatments but also being potential candidates for the next Sect Master or Hall Masters of various halls.
If Lu Yuan can become the Sect’s True Inheritor, it would be akin to ascending to the heavens in one step!
"With senior’s words, the junior can be at ease."
Lu Yuan revealed a trace of relieved smile.
Actually, he wasn’t worried about retaliation from the Supreme Profound Sect.
After all, if the enemy comes, we counter them; if water floods, we dam it. If the Supreme Profound Sect truly dared to openly deal with him, maybe then it would be uncertain who would retaliate against whom.
And the reason he deliberately pretended to be so afraid was merely to seize the opportunity to gain more advantages from the Cyan Cloud Sect.
With the battle concluded, there are still many matters to handle.
Li Nianchen exchanged a few pleasantries with Lu Yuan, then took other disciples to start calculating the casualties and loss of materials.
Meanwhile, Lu Yuan volunteered himself, choosing to handle the corpses of those Black Tiger Stronghold bandits.
He walked to Dong Ruonan’s corpse, first picked up those two War Axes and set them aside, then carefully searched and successfully scavenged a Storage Bag and several scattered Protective Talismans.
Afterward.
He searched each of Lin Hu and those Black Tiger Stronghold bandits, then went to the Black Tiger Stronghold, moved all items from the storeroom, and finally returned to the Cyan Cloud Sect team satisfied.
Li Nianchen and other disciples saw this but didn’t say anything.
After all, even their lives were saved by Lu Yuan, and these spoils of war should rightfully belong to him.
However, to gather people’s hearts and establish a good reputation, Lu Yuan still took out those unused gold, silver, jewelry, and Low-tier Weapons to distribute to all present.
"Thank you, Brother Lu Yuan!"
"Brother Lu Yuan is selfless, heroic, and righteous, truly a good man!"
Other disciples were overjoyed, instantly expressing their gratitude with smiles.
Originally, even if Lu Yuan had kept everything to himself, they wouldn’t dare say anything, though they might feel somewhat dissatisfied in their hearts.
But Lu Yuan’s action directly dispelled everyone’s dissatisfaction, elevating his prestige in their minds to a wholly new level.
"Knowing when to advance or retreat, understanding to choose, yet decisive at crucial moments, this young man has a future limitless beyond measure."
Li Nianchen watched everything unfold, nodded gently, inwardly expressing admiration for Lu Yuan.
Many geniuses have decent aptitude, yet often act arrogantly, viewing everyone as beneath them, thus it’s hard for them to go far.
Conversely, those like Lu Yuan, who are strong and understand social nuances, are able to thrive in various situations, ascending to higher realms.
This gathering concluded.
The Cyan Cloud Sect convoy reorganized, finally successfully arriving at the Sect two days later.
Simultaneously.
The news of the Sect convoy’s attack and Lu Yuan slaying Lin Hu and Dong Ruonan immediately spread back to the Sect, causing a great uproar.
Who is Lin Hu?
He was once the Inner Sect Chief of the Supreme Profound Sect, with Power and Talent that couldn’t be underestimated.
Furthermore, even though he was expelled from the Supreme Profound Sect, over the years he amassed many desperados, forging the Black Tiger Stronghold into an impregnable fortress.
Just the toll collected each year amounted to astronomical figures, causing the Cyan Cloud Sect quite some losses.
Yet such a power-hungry hero met his end at the hands of an unremarkable Cyan Cloud Sect Outer Disciple?
When the Cyan Cloud Sect Master learned of this news, he was immensely shocked, promptly summoning several hall masters to discuss the matter.
Sect Hall.
Five Hall Masters and two Peak Masters gathered.
And before them, a slightly grey-haired man in dark robes stood with hands behind his back, radiating powerful aura.
His presence was restrained, yet inherently commanding, imposing without anger.
Not to mention Martial Artists at the Spiritual Sea Realm, even those mighty Soul Palace Realm experts would feel intimidated before him, daring not even breathe heavily.
For this man was the current Cyan Cloud Sect Master.
Han Qingxuan!
"I believe everyone is already aware of the details of this event, so I won’t elaborate further."
"According to Sect rules, anyone who makes significant contributions, is eligible to be directly promoted to True Disciple."
"However, this matter is of great importance, at least five must agree within the Three Peaks and Five Halls, it’s not a decision I can make alone. What are your thoughts, Hall Masters?"
Han Qingxuan spoke with a low tone, gently uttering.
"I agree, this young one, Lu Yuan, is the orphan of our Sect’s disciples, his parents sacrificed for the Sect, a family truly loyal."
"He served as a menial worker for many years in my Artifact Refining Hall, with a clear and reliable background, and a steady and pragmatic character."
"Now that he has made great contributions, he should be promoted to True Disciple."
Artifact Refining Hall Master Zhou Xiong pondered for a moment, raising his hand in agreement.
"Since he’s a Cyan Cloud Sect orphan, naturally, we should reward his merits."
Han Qingxuan nodded slightly, then glanced at the other hall masters and inquired again.
"Gentlemen, what are your opinions?"
"When this child was promoted to Outer Disciple, I did meet him briefly."
Instructor Hall Master lifted a gourd and took a large sip of fine wine, belched, then spoke unhurriedly.
"His Talent is decent, he already has an understanding of the Martial Dao, whether from aptitude or other aspects, he indeed qualifies for promotion to True Disciple."
