Chapter 226 Lu Lai
In almost all major sects, the person who becomes the chief steward or sect leader is not the one with the highest cultivation level.
Because they are often preoccupied with trivial matters, they cannot simply go into seclusion or engage in cultivation as others do.
People who can sit in this position are usually capable, shrewd, or skilled at both personnel management and interpersonal communication.
In fact, based on Xu Yihan's observation, he actually thought quite highly of Zhao Ning. She was efficient, resolute, and he trusted her with her work. Xu Yihan had no objection to handing over the position of head steward to her.
However, some things need to be made clear from the beginning, lest Zhao Ning regret it halfway through and suddenly quit.
"I've thought it through. I'll manage to balance the time for both myself," Zhao Ning said firmly.
She had no official duties when she was in Qingyue Sect, but she always felt something was missing. However, at the time, she didn't know what she wanted to do.
But now she knows that she can't stay idle, and burying herself in cultivation is not suitable for her.
Now that the Xianlai Sect is in good political and social order and everything is being revitalized, it is the perfect time for her to make her mark!
“Alright, the sect will be very busy in the coming days, so please continue working here. If you feel it's not suitable after this busy period, you can let me know then.” Xu Yihan nodded.
Zhao Ning was overjoyed and knelt down, saying, "Yes, thank you, Sect Leader."
She choked up a little at that moment.
Zhao Ning hadn't expected things to go so smoothly. In fact, if she had known that she had such a troublesome person under her command, she wouldn't have gotten involved in order to avoid becoming enemies with the Qingyue Sect.
But to everyone's surprise, Sect Leader Xu didn't care about these things. He not only wanted her to stay, but also allowed her to get involved in sect affairs.
She could only repay this kindness and gratitude with her actions!
"Get up. I will inform everyone in the sect about your situation. If there is anything else that happens in Qingyue Sect, just let us know. Don't worry about causing trouble for everyone."
"Yes!"
Zhao Ning felt a chill run down her spine. She had considered this possibility herself, such as being found by the Qingyue Sect one day and being coerced or lured into doing so again.
However, she thought that she would handle her own affairs and not cause trouble for the Xianlai Sect.
But she didn't expect that the sect leader had thought of this, and even specifically told her not to hide it.
After leaving the main hall, Zhao Ning thought for a moment and then went to find Du Yue.
"What? You want to change your appearance?" Du Yue was taken aback.
“Yes.” Zhao Ning nodded. “I don’t want to have anything to do with Qingyue Sect anymore. They probably think I’m dead and won’t look for me. But since I’m in Xianlai Sect, I will inevitably have to deal with other sects. It would be bad if I were recognized.”
Just like the upcoming disciple test, who knows if there are people sent by various sects among them?
Zhao Ning used to be a prominent figure in the Qingyue Sect, and many of her disciples knew her, so it was inevitable that some people would recognize her identity.
For safety, she thought she might as well change her appearance and name, then she would feel at ease.
"I can make a powder that can temporarily change one's appearance, but you can't use it to change your face every day... How about this, let me think of a way."
"Okay, this isn't urgent, you think about it first."
After Zhao Ning left, Du Yue thought it over and decided to ask Mo Jiuwei for help.
Zhao Ning clearly wanted to permanently change her appearance, but Du Yue didn't have any pills that could do that.
"Oh, that's easy. The Qi family has medicinal herbs that can be made into pills in their storeroom. I'll give you a pill formula."
A moment later, Du Yue, holding the pill formula, returned to her alchemy room, feeling dizzy.
Is this really that easy?
Although she already knew of her junior sister's abilities, Du Yue still had some doubts about life after seeing her solve her problems so quickly once again. It seemed... there was no problem in this world that could stump her junior sister!
What is the true origin of Junior Sister? Is she really a reincarnation of an immortal?
In this sense, the Immortal Sect is incredibly fortunate to have brought the immortals home, which led to everything we have today.
Du Yue took a deep breath.
She is now extremely confident in the future of the Xianlai Sect, and even has a premonition that no sect will be able to compete with the Xianlai Sect in the future!
The pill was made two days later, and Du Yue handed it to Zhao Ning, who excitedly took it on the spot.
By this time, everyone knew about Zhao Ning's confession and her determination to become the head manager and sever all ties with the past, and they admired her for it.
When Zhao Ning took the medicine, everyone was right beside her, watching her face and even her body undergo subtle changes.
First, his body grew longer, becoming more slender and graceful, and he looked quite heroic.
As for her appearance, it has become much more neat and handsome, giving her a chivalrous air.
Zhao Ning glanced at the water mirror, then exclaimed with delight, "Wow, I can't recognize myself at all! Amazing!"
As the saying goes, "The appearance reflects the heart." The disguise pill formula given by Mo Jiuwei is somewhat special. It will determine the appearance according to the cultivator's inner desires and then gradually become closer to them.
Having gone through a dangerous experience, Zhao Ning's heart has become more resilient and decisive, which is why she presents such a heroic side.
This change was made according to her inner desires, but she herself was unaware of it. She only felt that the change was just right, and she was quite satisfied.
"What name do you want?" Xu Yihan asked curiously.
“Lu Lai,” Zhao Ning said, “Lu is my mother’s surname, and Lai is the same as the ‘Lai’ in Xianlai Sect. This is my second life.”
She survived and regained her senses thanks to the rescue by the Immortal Sect.
The Immortal Sect first saved her, then tolerated her, and now they are helping her change her appearance and abandon her past. The connection between the two has long been inseparable.
"Lu Lai... what a good name. It means welcoming tomorrow and embracing new life," Liu Feng praised.
Everyone smiled as they looked at her. Under their gazes, Zhao Ning—no, Lu Lai—felt that she had been truly accepted by the Immortal Sect.
No longer will she pretend to be stupid and just drift through life here, seemingly among the crowd but actually detached from the group. From today onwards, she is a true disciple of the Immortal Sect and can truly call them senior brothers and sisters.
[Great! The sect has gained another member!]
[From today onwards, Senior Sister Lu Lai will undergo a complete transformation; her future is undoubtedly limitless.]
Lu Lai was taken aback and suddenly looked at Mo Jiuwei.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that the other person was eating candy, their mouth full, leaving no chance to speak.
He noticed that she was looking at him, and when their eyes met, she gave him a big smile.
However, Mo Jiuwei clearly forgot that her mouth was full of candy, and when she smiled, drool dripped down her cheeks.
Ah, my candy!
My new clothes are dirty!
