"This is against the rules, isn't it?" Chu Li laughed.
The Wang Qing Cliff was not a small sect. It was a large sect that was only inferior to the Nine Divisions. The requirement to become an elder was extremely strict. One must be a supreme rank.
Now that Xiao Qi had just become an Enlightened Master, her cultivation level could barely reach Rank Two. The difference between Rank Two and Supreme Grade was like the difference between heaven and earth. She needed a lot of accumulation to break through to Supreme Grade Celestial Being.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for a Rank-2 to become an elder of the Passionless Cliff.
"Rules vary from person to person." Lu Cangming chuckled. "Others might not be able to break this rule, but it's different for Madam Chu. Madam Chu is a god."
As long as there were no accidents, those who cultivated to Godhood were destined to enter Supreme Grade. Therefore, it was not a big deal to promise a position as an elder in advance. Although they were both Supreme Grade, they were completely different. Chu Li's Supreme Grade was already superior to his peers.
Chu Li said, "That's still too preferential treatment."
"Madam Chu, please consider it carefully." Lu Cangming smiled. "Do you want to choose a safe path or a dangerous one? It's actually not that dangerous. Once you enter the Passionless Cliff, you can cultivate the martial arts of the Passionless Cliff as you please."
Xiao Qi remained silent.
She also felt that these conditions were too generous. Compared to the Taiqing Sect, the difference was huge.
Taiqing Sect didn't say these things. They just wanted to invite her back to the sect to cultivate and give her a quiet environment. That was all. She was just an ordinary disciple, but Wang Qing Cliff directly gave her the position of an elder.
Lu Cangming said, "Then we'll take our leave first. If you've made a decision, you can come to the Wangqing Residence in Rainmaster City to let us know. I'll be staying there for a while, so Madam Chu, there's no need to rush into a decision."
"Thank you, Senior Lu." Xiao Qi nodded.
Lu Cangming chuckled. "Of course, Madam Xiao can also join the Nine Divisions. However, I must advise you not to rush into the Nine Divisions. It's best if you enter a sect and reach a bottleneck in your cultivation. Then, it won't be too late to join the Nine Divisions. Of course, Young Master Chu's situation is different."
Chu Li had directly stepped into the ranks of Supreme Grade. There was no point in cultivating in a sect, so he could directly enter the Nine Divisions.
Xiao Qi nodded slowly.
Chu Li nodded in agreement and smiled. "These are words from the bottom of my heart. You can't rush into the Nine Divisions."
"Haha, old man???? Luomo? Stealing Osmanthus Mulberry? Ruan Wacha! Not to mention the Zui Yue psi card?
Chu Li and Xiao Qi sent them to the main entrance.
The two of them returned to the backyard and sat by the lake. Xiao Qi smiled and shook her head. "I can't believe I've become so popular. Am I really that good?"
Her aptitude was already amazing, but she had always been shrouded in Chu Li's limelight. Almost no one had noticed her strength, and all they could think about was how extraordinary Chu Li was.
She did not have enough confidence in herself. In front of Chu Li, her original pride was not worth mentioning.
Chu Li said, "The main thing is that you're extremely talented. As long as you enter the sect and cultivate in isolation for a period of time, it'll be easy for you to achieve Supreme Grade. That's why the Cliff of Forgetfulness is trying to rope you in."
"Is it that easy?" Xiao Qi asked.
Chu Li smiled. "Supreme Grade might be difficult for others, but it's not that difficult for you. Which sect do you plan to enter?"
"I was originally a disciple of the Taiqing Sect. If I were to join another sect …" Xiao Qi hesitated.
Chu Li said, "The Taiqing Sect and the Cliff of Forgetfulness are of the same origin. The Cliff of Forgetfulness was created by a disciple of the Taiqing Sect."
"If that's the case …" Xiao Qi pondered. "Let's enter the Cliff of Forgetfulness. I think the Divine Book of Forgetfulness is mysterious and unpredictable. It's even better. I want to study it."
Chu Li nodded.
The two of them chatted as time passed.
In the evening, when the two of them were preparing for dinner, a maid came to inform them that the two Taiqing Sect disciples outside wanted to see them again.
Xiao Qi personally went to welcome them and saw Hui Ning and Jing Ya.
When Xiao Qi welcomed them into the main hall, Chu Li was already waiting.
"Young Qi, have you met Lu Cangming of the Cliff of Forgetfulness?" Hui Ning asked directly.
Xiao Qi smiled. "Master's Junior is very well-informed."
"Did he invite you to join the Cliff of Forgetfulness?" Hui Ning asked.
Xiao Qi nodded. "He invited me to join the Cliff of Forgetfulness with his position as an elder and a mountain."
Hui Ning's expression changed slightly. She scoffed. "How ruthless!"
She did not expect the Cliff of Forgetfulness to be so generous. In comparison, the Taiqing Sect was too far behind. This made her very anxious.
Although the Taiqing Sect and the Cliff of Forgetfulness had a deep relationship, there was actually a great competition between them. The disciples secretly competed with each other.
The Taiqing Sect disciples wanted to surpass the Cliff of Forgetfulness and let them know that the Taiqing Sect's martial arts were the source of the Cliff of Forgetfulness. The disciples of the Cliff of Forgetfulness wanted to surpass the Taiqing Sect and let them know that the Cliff of Forgetfulness had surpassed the Cliff of Forgetfulness.
If the Cliff of Forgetfulness obtained a disciple with such great aptitude like Xiao Qi, she would definitely surpass the Taiqing Sect.
Xiao Qi said, "Master's Junior, I'm still hesitating. Which sect is better?"
"Of course, the Taiqing Sect!" Hui Ning said. "The potential of the Cliff of Forgetfulness' martial arts is limited. It's not perfect and not systematic. If you want to go further, you'll have to continue cultivating the Regal Sword Scripture!"
"The Regal Sword Scripture …" Xiao Qi shook her head. "I want to cultivate the Sword of Forgetfulness."
"The Sword of Indifference is only the tip of the iceberg of the Heavenly Scripture of Indifference." Hui Ning snorted and said, "The so-called Sword of Oblivion is also incomplete. It's difficult to form a system. It looks powerful at first glance, but after a thousand years, its potential has been exhausted. It's inferior to the Regal Sword Sutra!"
Xiao Qi nodded slowly.
Hui Ning continued. "Even though the lineage of the Sovereign Sword Scripture is only passed down by a single person, and there's only Senior Sister Hui Qing in this lineage, it's been accumulated for a few tens of thousands of years, and it's extremely abundant experience. It's a bright path."
Xiao Qi nodded.
Hui Ning continued, "It's extremely difficult to pass down the lineage of the Sovereign Sword Sutra because it's too difficult to enter the sect. The requirements for talent are even stricter. Senior Sister Hui Qing only has you as her disciple. Don't tell me you want the Sovereign Sword Sutra to be severed?"
Xiao Qi said, "Master's Junior, I believe we can still find a successor."
"Difficult, very difficult." Hui Ning sighed, "If it was that easy, Senior Sister Hui Qing wouldn't have descended to the lower realm for you."
Chu Li smiled and said, "The lineage has only been passed down to one person, but it hasn't been cut off. It's obvious that it's God's will."
When he saw that Hui Ning wanted to use morality to pressure Xiao Qi, he felt that it was inappropriate, so he could only interrupt her.
Hui Ning said, "If it weren't for the long lifespan of the Sovereign Sword Sutra's cultivators, the Sovereign Sword Sutra would really be severed."
"It hasn't been severed yet." Chu Li smiled. "I believe we can still find a successor."
Hui Ning fell silent.
Chu Li smiled and said, "Senior, I have an idea. How about we pass it down to both sects?"
He had suddenly thought of it in a flash of inspiration.
Hui Ning frowned and looked at him.
If it were not for Chu Li's well-known reputation, she would have definitely scolded him for being too greedy!
How could there be such a good thing in the world? Pass it down to both sects and not offend anyone? Wishful thinking!
Chu Li smiled and said, "Senior, will the Wang Qing Cliff and Tai Qing Sect fight?"
"… No." Hui Ning scoffed.
The two sects did not have any conflict of interest. Instead, they helped each other out. Although the disciples were usually competing with each other, once the other party encountered an enemy, they would definitely help without hesitation. After all, they had a deep relationship as if the same blood flowed in their bodies.
