My junior sister sees everyone as a heretical cultivator.

Chapter 45: Are they going to use me as a sacrifice?! (Seeking monthly votes! Seeking to read further! Seeking book recommendations!)
dawn.

Lin Qingfeng sat in his cave, his fingertips drawing a curtain of light in the air.

Sect Contribution (NPC): 765/500000

He sighed.

Being the senior brother is so difficult for him; he also has to take care of his junior sister's mental state every day and cheer her on.

If it weren't for me guiding her, my junior sister would probably have already broken down.

Sigh, although my junior sister is very diligent now, that goes without saying, she has to stop all the time, sit cross-legged, face up, and recover her spiritual energy.

He understood that she needed to restore her spiritual power in order to continue working better.

But looking at the snail-paced growth of his contribution points, he was also very worried.

There are many players on this side, and they can even AFK farm, so there's no fear of accumulating a large contribution.

However, the game designers deliberately set up two paths. If you don't meet the requirements in the NPC path, the promotion quest cannot be unlocked.

And she was the only truly breathing native NPC in the sect.

It would be great if more of them could come in the future.

When new NPCs are introduced, the junior sister is so perceptive that she can sometimes speak eloquently under my influence.

With her silver tongue, she's got a whole repertoire of tricks up her sleeve; it would be a waste of her talent if she didn't use them to fool people.

Then she can be completely handed over the task of guiding and mentoring newcomers, and I can be a hands-off manager. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

As expected, it was my senior brother who taught me well.

Moreover, receiving new local disciples earns more contribution points, making my job easier.

As the president, he is extremely busy with many affairs of state. How could he have time to deal with these trivial matters every day?

Isn't this a win-win situation?
But before that, she needs to practice the "Sword Refining Technique".

When we welcome new native disciples, if they see that our Guixi Sect's senior sister is just a minor cultivator at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, how can our Guixi Sect's claim of being an "unparalleled immortal sect, a renowned and righteous sect, and the leader of the righteous and profound sects" be convincing?

After all, my junior sister said she would have three to five days.

Then let's wait a bit longer, no rush.

Anyway, many of you can try to break through to the Nascent Soul stage after another ten days or so of grinding.

What will the inner demons and tribulations be like then?
Lin Qingfeng stopped thinking about it. With a thought, the sensation of the cold jade bed beneath him disappeared, and the world before him turned into darkness.

Offline.

……

The sun was blazing hot past noon.

Lin Qingfeng got up from the bed and stretched.

"It's time to go and urge my junior sister to get her work done."

He leaped onto his sword, his figure flashing, and silently landed on the roof beam of the Transmission Hall.
Prepare to observe first, as always, and then appear at the right time to offer "encouragement of love".

At that moment, he saw his junior sister dart out of the Transmission Hall and head straight for the herb field.

He paused for a moment, then saw the sect panel in front of him.

Sect Contribution (NPC): 872/500000

My junior sister has already started working?!
He quickly leaped into the Valley of Herbs and found the medicinal field where his junior sister was working.

Very good, she really didn't slack off.

But...her steps seemed...

Lin Qingfeng narrowed his eyes and saw that starlight flashed beneath Su Ling'er's feet, and her figure was elusive.

You've learned a new skill!

Not bad, the movement skill I drew is one that can make working easier.

……

Su Ling'er felt much lighter.

Spiritual energy flows through the meridians in specific directions, eventually converging at the soles of the feet.

This is "Stepping on Stars".

This beginner-level footwork requires only a small amount of spiritual energy to operate, but its effect is hundreds of times better than the basic footwork she learned at Qingxu Temple.

The teachings at Qingxu Temple only say "spiritual power gathers at the soles of the feet," but how to gather and circulate it is entirely up to the disciples to figure out on their own.

After all, they are outer disciples, so there's not much they can reveal.

When the elder was performing the initiation ceremony for her, the image in his mind personally demonstrated every subtle path of the "Stepping on Stars" to her.

She reluctantly used the hundred spiritual herbs she had acquired yesterday before the elder who was transferring her skills finally relented.

Although he still had that expressionless, wooden look, he still held the debt of gratitude for teaching and guiding Su Ling'er.

She believed that as long as she kept completing tasks, she would definitely be able to get better items!
When she escapes, she will bring all of this back to Qingxu Temple, so that her fellow disciples who are struggling in the outer sect can also learn this footwork with detailed annotations.

While it may not grant unparalleled superhuman skills, it at least provides a better chance of survival, whether traveling or fleeing.

This footwork might not be appreciated by inner disciples, but it's already excellent for them, the outer disciples.

Thinking of this, she quickened her pace.

But after a casual glance, out of the corner of his eye he saw the familiar dark-colored hem of a garment on the roof beam.

Senior Brother!
he came!
When did they arrive?! Su Ling'er's hands kept moving, but her heart was filled with fear.

really!

I was indeed being monitored anytime, anywhere!

Does the image reappear before my eyes as a warning to remind me that my thoughts are not on the work?

Or am I overthinking it?
What's the point of a senior disciple with profound cultivation staring at a junior cultivator at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining every day?
As expected, even with his current cultivation level, he would still be useful after refining me!

Otherwise, how can you explain the fact that they're constantly monitoring you?!
She dared not think any further and focused all her attention on the task at hand.

Seeing that his junior sister was so self-disciplined, Lin Qingfeng did not go down to disturb her.

He shifted to a more comfortable position, half-lying on the roof beam, and opened the player forum.

[Hot Post]: "Prediction of the Golden Autumn Harvest Festival Event! Double Sect Contribution Points!"

[Hot Post]: "Brothers, how do I join the Hehuan Sect? Anyone want to team up?"

[Hot Post]: "Hilarious! I saw someone on top of a prison cell today using pressure points to tickle the inmates, making them laugh and scratching. They don't even know who did it, hahaha!"

Lin Qingfeng scrolled through the posts, a smile gradually spreading across his face.

The tiles next to them creaked softly, and another figure climbed up—it was Ji.

He followed Lin Qingfeng's example and lay down, with a blade of grass dangling from his mouth.

"President, what are you looking at? You seem so happy."

Lin Qingfeng pointed to his light screen panel, which displayed game event announcements.

"The 'Golden Autumn Harvest Festival' is in two days. Have you seen it yet?"

Ji spat out the grass in his mouth with a "pui!"

"I've looked at it. The sect contribution points will double, and I've heard there will be all sorts of interesting activities."

I've already taken the day off; I'll have plenty of time to grind online!

"The players' contribution level will definitely be maxed out."

"Um,"

Lin Qingfeng nodded.
"The players are fine, it's just that my junior sister..."

She can't even earn a thousand points in a day.

Even if the event gives double points, and she keeps grinding non-stop all day, she can only get a maximum of 3,000 points.
There might be some events that reward high contributors, but the first kill of the final event boss should be worth tens of thousands if the junior sister participates.

Unfortunately, I'm still far from the 500,000 contribution points needed for sect advancement.

Following his gaze, Ji also looked somewhat troubled:
"Indeed, one NPC alone can't accomplish anything."

Moreover, this is a dual-task mission, and they don't allow each other to help each other. Otherwise, why would it be so difficult?

"Go directly to Wang Xian and ask him to send a group of spirit beasts to help with the work. Junior Sister just needs to stay in the Cultivation Hall and wait for her contribution points to increase."

"But this time the event boss should be a Core Formation stage cultivator. Won't Junior Sister's small Qi Refining body get killed with a single palm strike?"

"Don't worry, I've asked the weapon-refining pavilion to prepare some good things for my junior sister. Besides, I'm here."

"I wonder when the next NPC to take the bait will come. At the very least, one should come after the Golden Autumn Harvest Festival!"

It would be best to use the "Sword Refining Technique" to forcefully elevate Junior Sister to the Foundation Establishment stage first before coming here. Otherwise, how can she intimidate newly initiated disciples if she hasn't reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining?

Lin Qingfeng looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle again, his expression profound:
"Alas, a tall building rises from the ground up, and the foundation of a sect ultimately depends on her day-to-day labor."

Ji looked at the guild leader speechlessly: "Senior Brother, we can just fool Junior Sister, why are you getting so into it?"

"You don't understand, no one understands cultivation better than me!"

Lin Qingfeng's gaze fell on Su Ling'er, that red figure tirelessly repeating the same actions in the herb field, tending to the herb field again and again.

Her speed became much more efficient thanks to the new footwork she had acquired.

However, despite being coated with the sweetness of spiritual herbs, its dry and dull nature remains unchanged.

Then, he slowly sat up from the roof beam, his robes fluttering like an immortal, and decided to go and give his junior sister a heads-up.

He first set himself up with a "celestial and otherworldly" light effect and a "sound of the Great Dao" atmosphere effect, then looked at the red figure moving through the herb field and slowly spoke.

“Sister, sister, you must remember this: for every gain, there is a loss.”

"The sect will be holding the 'Golden Autumn Harvest Festival,' which may be a great opportunity for you."

Whether you can seize an opportunity depends not on everyday comfort, but on the determination to let go when facing hardship.

"I hope you can understand, Wangwang."

After saying that, he didn't say anything more, and with a flash, he disappeared from the roof beam.

Only Su Ling'er remained, standing there in the medicinal herb field.

No, can't you speak properly?

Why do you have an echo when you speak?

Are you showing me your sonic techniques?
Is it true that for every gain, there is a loss?
The determination to 'give up'?

What is Senior Brother implying to me?
What do you want me to do?

Could it be that... this so-called "Golden Autumn Harvest Festival" is going to use me directly as a sacrifice to the heavens?!
