To be the best leader, you must also be the strongest leader!

In the Tianyuan Continent, many sects would regularly dismiss elderly monks with no potential within the sect. No one was willing to waste resources on monks with no future.

Some cultivators at the scene noticed that the sect had summoned only elderly cultivators, all of whom had few years left to live, and they naturally thought that the sect was planning to clean them out.

After hearing what this old man said, the expressions of the other old men also changed, and their moods became extremely heavy.

"Alas, forget it. We old guys really can't keep up with the sect's development. It would be a waste of the sect's resources if we continue to stay here."

"I'm only at the initial stage of foundation building, and I only have fifteen years left to live. With my aptitude, even if the sect has sufficient cultivation resources, there's no hope of me breaking through to the Golden Core stage."

"Me too, there's no hope of a breakthrough."

"Haha, I have already given up on receiving the sect's resources. In these final days, I just want to protect the sect well. Qingyun Sect is the best sect I have ever seen. I am willing to protect Qingyun Dao Palace for the sect until the last moment of my life."

"It's a pity we didn't meet the Sect Leader sooner."

"Yes, if we could have met the Sect Leader earlier, perhaps we would have had hope of a breakthrough."

Although the elderly people at the scene have given up hope of a breakthrough, they still feel unwilling and regretful in their hearts.

At this moment, Chang Qing stepped into the hall: "Haha, fellow disciples, it's not too late for you to meet the master now."

A group of elderly people saw Chang Qing entering the hall and quickly stood up. They bowed respectfully towards Chang Qing and said, "Greetings, Deputy Sect Leader Chang Qing."

Nowadays, Changqing handles most of the affairs of Qingyun Sect. The monks of Qingyun Sect have the most contact with Changqing, and he has a very high reputation in Qingyun Sect.

"You're all welcome. I've gathered you all here today because I have something important to tell you."

"Deputy Sect Leader, I beg you not to expel us from the sect!"

"Deputy Sect Leader, I don't need to take any resources from the sect anymore. I just want to stay in the sect forever."

"Deputy Sect Leader, please let us stay. I don't have much time left. I hope to be a member of the sect in life and a ghost in death!"

……

As soon as Changqing finished speaking, the old men in front of him knelt down one after another, kowtowed and begged Changqing to keep them.

This sudden change confused Changqing. He just stood there in a daze. When he came to his senses, he quickly tried to use his true energy to lift up these old people.

"You...what are you doing? Who said they were going to kick you out of the sect?"

Although Changqing wanted to use his true Qi to lift these old men up, they knelt resolutely on the ground. After all, these old men were also in the Foundation Establishment Stage and had true Qi in their bodies.

"Hurry! Get up! If the Sect Leader sees us, he'll think I'm bullying you."

"Deputy Sect Leader, please promise us not to chase us away, otherwise we will be unable to get up from our knees."

"Okay! Okay! Okay! I promise you, hurry up and get up. Don't worry, the sect will never drive you away. You will always be members of the sect."

"Really?" Pairs of expectant eyes stared at Changqing.

Chang Qing raised his right hand helplessly: "I swear."

"No need to swear, we believe in the deputy leader." These old men stood up one after another. The old man who had just taken the lead in kneeling stood up and looked at Changqing.

The old man said, "Deputy Sect Leader Changqing, please don't blame us. We have lived for so many years and have seen the intrigues and cruelties of the immortal cultivation world. Now that we have finally found such a good place, we all just want to spend the rest of our lives in the sect."

Changqing looked at the expressions of these old men and felt emotional. He found that these old men had an even stronger sense of belonging to the sect. Sun Yi's decision not to give up on these old men was the right one.

It was not difficult for Changqing to see that as long as they helped these old people break through the realm, as long as the sect did not give up on any of them and gave them hope, they would be the sect's most loyal disciples.

Sun Yi once said to Chang Qing that every loyal person is the most cherished person in the sect, and loyalty is always above talent.

"My fellow disciples, you have misunderstood. The Sect Master has specially gathered you together this time, not to expel you from the sect, but to help you quickly break through the realm."

"Help us break through?" The old men were stunned.

"Deputy Sect Leader Changqing, you didn't lie to us, did you? With our qualifications, realm, and age, the sect is still willing to help us break through?"

"Yes, in our situation, even if we break through a small realm, it will be useless. There is no hope of breaking through to the Golden Core stage. The sect should not waste resources on us in vain."

"Instead of wasting resources on old guys like us, it's better to use them on young disciples. I like the current Qingyun Sect. I hope Qingyun Sect will become stronger and better."

Changqing looked at these old people and felt ashamed that he had not cared enough about them before. If it were not for the leader's concern, perhaps these old people would eventually disappear silently in the sect.

"Don't worry, the sect has developed a spiritual tool that can assist in cultivation and quickly improve your cultivation. Although your situation is not good, if you use this spiritual tool to cultivate now, you still have hope of breaking through to the Golden Core stage in the future."

"The Sect Master said he would not give up on any of you, so he gave you priority in using this best spiritual weapon. He hopes that it will help you improve your realm as quickly as possible."

"And just now, the Sect Master specifically instructed me to formulate a training plan specifically for you to ensure your training as much as possible. As for resources, the Sect will also fully supply them."

"In the coming period, your positions will be replaced. You just need to focus on training and strive to break through the Golden Core Stage as soon as possible."

Changqing briefly recounted the whole story, and these dozens of elders were stunned. They simply couldn't believe their ears. The sect actually treated them so considerately.

It was obvious that these people had almost no hope of breaking through, but the leader was unwilling to give up on these old bones and was willing to spend resources to help them practice.

These old men had all experienced the cruel world of immortal cultivation in the past, but now the immortal cultivators in the foundation-building stage were so moved that they wanted to cry. Their eye sockets began to turn red, and there was a faint crystal light flowing in their eyes.

"Okay, fellow disciples, please follow me. I will take you there." Chang Qing politely led these old men to fly towards the R&D department.

The R&D department is a heavily guarded place in Qingyun Sect, and ordinary disciples are not allowed to approach it at all. These old men can only be regarded as ordinary disciples in Qingyun Sect. Although they have joined the battle hall, they can only be stationed in Qingyun Taoist Palace. This is their first time to come to the R&D department.
