In addition to handling daily family affairs, I also selected several family members.
Some of them are young and have good talent for cultivation, while others are experienced and have a special talent for managing affairs.
Those with decent talent for cultivation, I plan to select one or two to take back to the sect for the elders to see, as a way of mentoring the younger generation.
The rest are the clan members I selected to manage the family after I leave.
Since I can't train them all to be all-rounders all at once, I try to improve their abilities in different areas to achieve complementary advantages and mutual improvement. Then, they can be responsible for management affairs together.
In this way, even if their abilities are not originally sufficient to serve as clan leaders, they can cooperate together.
I took a few juniors to the Five Elements Sect, partly to cultivate bloodlines for the family, just like I did back then.
Once they grow up, they can use their own strength to give back to the family and thus share my burden.
At the same time, in order to prevent infighting among the clan members who remained in the family, I clearly defined their rights.
I've also assigned supervisory personnel. Furthermore, I have some backup plans they don't know about, so it won't be easy for them to fool me.
This way, even when I'm not at the family compound, I can still keep an eye on things and offer reminders. Isn't that alright?
"uh-huh?"
Hong Li paused, raised an eyebrow, and couldn't help but ask, "So, that means..."
"In other words, you're completely wrong. I really want to go back on my own, and I've already made all the necessary preparations!"
Hongling snorted.
"How many scapegoats did you find?"
Hongli asked tentatively.
"Ugh, ptooey, what scapegoat!"
Hongling retorted fiercely, "I was training them, okay?"
The few of them combined can exercise the rights of a clan leader, isn't that enough?
For them, this might be exactly what they want!
Of course, I used strict screening criteria when making my selections, and the people I chose are quite reliable.
"Well……"
Hongli pushed the guy in her arms a little awkwardly, then shook her head.
"Alright, alright, whatever you say, Auntie. Since you know what you're doing, I don't need to worry. I'm not interested in this anyway..."
"You don't need to worry about things like this, Xiao Li!"
Hongling couldn't help but sigh.
"Go, go, go."
Hongli paused, turned her head and glared at Heiyang, then said, "So you're planning to go back next year? When exactly are you leaving?"
"You've finally hit the nail on the head. I called you to talk about this."
Hongling sighed, gently opened the window a crack, looked at the snow-covered landscape outside, and said softly, "It's snowing here in the capital too, and it looks like quite a lot of snow."
"I guess the road to the Five Elements Sect is blocked by heavy snow by now, right?"
"What do you say?"
Hongli asked curiously, "Why don't you just make a call to Elder Huole and ask him to send someone to pick you up in an airship?"
"Oh, I know that. What I'm worried about isn't not being able to go to the Five Elements Sect."
Hongling smiled and waved her hand, saying, "Well, as I said, I'll be bringing some promising juniors from the Five Colors family with me this time, to see how many of them can pass the entrance test. It'll be good for leaving some support for the family."
Also, are your two younger cousins, Huihui and Qiaoqiao, going to the Five Elements Sect next year?
"Hmm, that's true."
Hong Li nodded. Joking aside, he had deliberately provoked Elder Yue by saying he would send his two cousins to the Wuliang Sword Sect.
However, compared to the Boundless Sword Sect, Hong Li knew that the Five Elements Sect was more suitable for them.
"That's it!"
Hongling smiled with her eyes narrowed and said, "This year, I will go back to Five Colors City with my elders for the Spring Festival."
"We can travel together then, it'll be more convenient, and I can help you look after those two little girls."
"uh-huh?"
Hongli was slightly surprised: "So Aunt, you called because you were worried about those two little girls, Huihui and Qiaoqiao?"
Hongli thought her aunt needed help again and was ready to assist.
Unexpectedly, my aunt...
"Yes."
Hongling chuckled and said, "Just like you, Xiaoli, weren't you raised by your aunt back then?"
"Oh, your aunt was your teacher, after all!"
"Ah this..."
Hongli looked at her aunt with a touched expression.
She's so gentle, I'm so happy...
"Also, could you please approve a note to give these juniors I'm mentoring a chance to test them?"
Hongling suddenly spoke up: "Using your big airship shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"Eh?"
Hongli paused for a moment, then pointed to herself.
"Me? What kind of approval would I give? Do you think I'd give those younger members of the Five Colors family a chance?"
"Ha, of course, because I took it upon myself to select these on the spot, and there is actually a certain number of slots available each year."
Five Elements City, Five Fruits City, Five Directions City, Five Colors City.
The recruitment airship has already circled around for so long, and the spots are probably already full. Adding more people will all depend on you, Xiao Li!
Hongling smiled and said, "Xiao Li, you are the Grand Sect Master, this shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"Oh, so you're a nepotism hire, huh!"
Hong Li raised her eyebrows and shouted loudly.
“I am an upright man, how could I possibly conspire with you!”
I thought you were being kind-hearted, but it turns out you had ulterior motives. Now that your true colors are revealed, what more is there to say!
Hongling: "..."
"that……"
Hongling said quietly, "Back when you were in the sect, I used my connections to get many things done for you."
Hongli: "Ah, this..."
Hongling continued, "It's just giving them a chance, not adding unqualified people in. I would have them leave."
Hongli: "Ah, this..."
Hongling continued, "And it won't take away other people's opportunities; they might even be excluded from the competition for rankings in the first year of the new disciples' recruitment!"
"Uh, that's a bit much..."
Hong Li paused, smiled helplessly, and waved her hand, saying, "If it's just about giving me a chance, then I can help."
As long as they prove themselves, what can others say?
Furthermore, if they also got in through hard work, wouldn't it be unfair to them if they weren't allowed to compete for rankings?
"So you mean..."
Hongling's face lit up with joy.
"Okay, okay!"
Hong Li chuckled, her body suddenly trembled, she clenched one hand into a fist and moved it off-screen, then continued to act as if nothing had happened.
"Leave it to me!"
"Thank you very much."
Hongling chuckled and then said, "And what about the airship? I'll leave that to you too?"
"And what about the airship?"
Hongli was taken aback and asked curiously, "Won't you be coming to Five Colors City then?"
Why don't we just get on the airship sent by the Five Elements Sect?
Why do we need to borrow another ship specifically?
"There are a little over a hundred million people with him."
Hongling muttered to herself, a hint of guilt flashing in her eyes.
