If the sect doesn't accept geniuses, they will become giants once they leave?

Chapter 323: Abandoning One's Cultivation
In Sunset City, the Holy Maiden of Tianyin Demon Sect, Hongxia, and the candidate Holy Maiden Hong Muer are picking flower petals.

There was no particular reason, they were just using this to decide whether or not to report the situation truthfully to Hong Menglian.

First of all, a leader will definitely not make mistakes, especially a petty leader.

Therefore, it was definitely not Hong Menglian's fault to let Hongxia, who had offended Li Yanmo, contact Li Yanmo.

Hongxia was definitely more than 80% responsible for this blunder. The conflict at the Qianzhou competition wasn't her fault; she hadn't said anything unpleasant, and Li Yanmo hadn't taken it personally. But Hongxia needed Qingshan Patriarch's reminder to remember the incident, so she bore the greater responsibility.

If a leader is responsible, he will definitely feel that he has a certain responsibility. Everyone knows that Li Yanmo is the reincarnation of an ancient immortal, and they also know that he has been active in Qianzhou before. However, he did not investigate before arranging people to take action.

As the leader of the Tianyin Demon Sect, Hong Menglian cannot be said to be irresponsible, but she is definitely not magnanimous.

Hong Muer felt that this matter had nothing to do with her and wanted to watch the fun.

But Hongxia reminded Hong Muer that she was also involved.

Hong Muer already knew that Li Yanmo was the second in the Foundation Establishment Group during the Qianzhou Competition, but she did not mention this matter. If Hong Muer had said it at that time, Hongxia would not have been sent by Hong Menglian.

What's more, Hong Menglian has always wanted to find an excuse to kick Hong Muer out of the position of candidate for the saint.

Fortunately, Li Yanmo gave them a satisfactory answer. What they are struggling with now is whether or not to make trouble and tell about their mistakes.

"Report—"

Looking at the lonely petal on the pistil, Hongxia and Hongmuer had strange expressions.

"Didn't you count the petals just now?"

"I don't know either. I counted several times."

Hongxia and Hong Muer fell into silence.

Those at the level of a semi-immortal can sense the direction of things, so they certainly cannot start by not reporting it.

They also specifically counted the petals of the flower in front of them to make sure that they would not report the last one they picked.

Then they naturally said that it was decided by God, and they actually wanted to report it.

But after picking them, they were reported.

"Let's report it..."

Hong Muer and Hong Xia finally gave up their hope and took out the talisman obediently.

Soon, Hong Menglian's lazy voice came from the talisman, "Have you figured out how to trick me?"

"...Sect Master, look at what you're saying. How could we possibly lie to you?" Hongxia threw the pitiful little flower, leaving only its pistil, calmly away. "Sect Master, we've already met with Master Li. Master Li is magnanimous and forgiving, and he's truly a trustworthy partner."

Hongxia, who was sitting sideways on a chair, lazily playing with her fingers, raised an eyebrow and corrected lightly, "If everything is as we speculated, then we, the Tianyin Demon Sect, do not have the ability to claim to cooperate with Tianxu Tower. Instead, we need to ask Tianxu Tower for something. No matter what Tianxu Tower asks for, we must gladly accept it."

Hongxia was horrified. It would be fine for her, the Saint of the Tianyin Demon Sect, to say so, but Hong Menglian was the Sect Master of the Tianyin Demon Sect and represented the Taoist tradition that had been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years.

"I'm afraid that Tianxu Tower has the means to form the Supreme Golden Elixir."

"Leng Shanhe's daughter should have a top-grade golden elixir, but the golden elixir she had in the Nine Yin Land was a supreme golden elixir."

Hongxia and Hong Muer looked at each other and saw the surprise and shock in each other's eyes.

Just by looking at the word "Supreme", you can know the value of the Supreme Golden Elixir.

A top-grade Golden Elixir is the ticket to a higher-level challenge, a peerless Golden Elixir is the guarantee of a higher-level challenge, and a Supreme Golden Elixir is the guarantee of invincibility in one's generation. If Tianxu Tower possesses a method to produce a Supreme Golden Elixir, how terrifying must Tianxu Tower's foundation be?!

"However, it should only be a means to increase the probability of forming a Supreme Golden Core, not a means to ensure that it can be formed. Leng Shanhe's daughter is already a monstrous talent..."

Hong Menglian pinched her chin, a gleam in her eyes.

"So that's what that serious illness was all about."

Hongxia and Hong Muer looked at each other for a while before Hongxia asked tentatively, "Sect Master, what should we do?"

Hong Menglian lay sideways on the chair, her hands behind her head. "It's certainly unrealistic for everyone to have a Supreme Golden Core, but if we can raise the overall quality of our disciples' Golden Cores to a higher grade, then why should we worry about the future of the Tianyin Demon Sect?"

Hongxia seemed to know what Hong Menglian meant. A hint of sadness flashed across her eyes, but she immediately suppressed it. "So, what does the Sect Master mean?"

"There's no need to be pretentious. Just tell Mr. Li directly what we want. He can set any conditions. He can ask for anything," Hong Menglian paused and emphasized again, "including you and me, anything."

Hongxia did not feel sad or unwilling because of Hong Menglian's cold words.

Whether it is the saint or the sect leader, everything is the foundation prepared for the future of countless disciples of the Tianyin Demon Sect.

"Mu'er——"

"I'm here!"

When Hong Muer heard Hong Menglian calling her name, she immediately tensed up.

"You are the most talented one in the Tianyin Demon Sect. This opportunity is rare. You..."

Hong Menglian hesitated, but Hong Muer nodded decisively, saying, "I am willing to destroy my own cultivation and form a new pill!"

Hong Muer has now reached the late stage of the Spirit Transformation stage. As long as she works harder, she can become the youngest in the Fusion stage.

At this level, even if one knows that there are flaws in one's cultivation, it is difficult to make up one's mind to abandon one's cultivation, not to mention that Hong Muer's cultivation has no flaws at all.

Realm is not a plug-in that can be destroyed and rebuilt safely.

Even if Hong Muer is a physical cultivator, her vitality will be seriously damaged, and she may develop a chronic illness if she is not careful.

But what they paid such a huge price for was the Supreme Golden Elixir, something that is hard to come by.

"it is good--"

Hongxia was not surprised by Hong Muer's choice. She didn't like Hong Muer's style, nor did she want to see Hong Muer become the Holy Maiden of the Tianyin Demon Sect, but that didn't mean she understood Hong Muer.

"Master, what about our original plan...? Should we reveal it to Master Li?" Hongxia hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively.

Hong Menglian frowned, "That Li Lin is from Tianxu Tower. It was he who used the [planned event of the Tianyin Demon Sect] as bait to lure Mei'er to Meizhou. Staying in the Jiuyin Land, she witnessed that Master Li was a reincarnated immortal..."

Hong Menglian narrowed her eyes slightly, and a gleam of light flashed in them.

"Is this even possible? This Mr. Li is really..."

Hongxia and Hongmuer were puzzled, "Sect Master?"

"There's no need to elaborate on what you and I know," Hong Menglian replied, moving her fingers. "Let's just talk about the Golden Elixir."
