Double Cultivation
gathering new students
Seeing Qiuyue standing there like a statue, Su Yang showed a gentle smile on his face and spoke, "Thank you for trying to help me recover faster. Because of your Yin Qi, my spiritual energy recovered completely."
"I.. I. I don't know what you're talking about.." Qiuyue immediately faked ignorance because of his embarrassment.
On the one hand, he wanted to tell her about what happened yesterday so that their relationship could continue to deepen, but on the other hand, they wanted to talk about what happened yesterday, she did not want to bear the shame of telling him what she was doing to him while he was asleep, because it might make him look like a desperate nympho.
Su Yang chuckled at her funny reaction and felt the urge to tease her, "If not you, then it must be Xiao Rong who filled the room with her Yin Qi. I'll have to reward him for his efforts later."
"Ahem!" Qiuyue suddenly cleared his throat before speaking hurriedly, "S-Actually .. That Yin Qi is mine. I just don't want you to feel like you owe me, so I'm lying."
The smile on Su Yang's face widened, and he spoke, "Even if you say that, I am someone who cannot ignore such things. Therefore, I will still pay the debt. And since you are a beloved princess, I will fulfill your request as a gift."
"really? You're gonna do whatever I want?" Qiuyue's eyes flickered with excitement and happiness.
"For that long in my ability" he replied with a quiet nod of his head.
"okay! But I won't claim this prize right away! Give me time to think about what I want!" she said.
Some time later, Su Yang left the house to meet with the new disciple.
"Older Sun, can you gather all the disciples for me?" Su Yang said to him, who first entered his sight.
"Su Yang! You're finally awake!" Elder Sun's face showed relief after seeing his face.
"Did anything happen during my absence?" Su Yang raised an eyebrow.
"No, nothing really happened. However, all the new disciples arrived a few days ago, but we can't do anything without you, so I'm relieved to finally see you awake. This means that we can finally make things move in the Sect."
"Thank you, I'll get to work soon."
"Where do you want the disciples to gather?" Elder Sun asked.
"The area of meeting inside the Outer Court."
Elder Sun nodded, "Then I will tell all the disciples to gather there as soon as possible."
Elder Sun's words quickly echoed within every jade slip in the Sect, causing all the new and old disciples to rush out of their homes. However, not everyone was prepared to leave the house, and their appearance was visible. Some of them were still in nightgowns when they left the house, while some were still bathing when Elder Sun called out to them, so they left the house with only a towel on their wet bodies.
Some time later, when all the disciples gathered, Su Yang appeared before them while wearing a black robe, the cloak of the Sect Master/Teacher.
His domineering gaze swept across the crowd, causing the disciples to tremble in awe.
Liu Lanzhi appeared beside him a moment later and spoke, "In addition to lecturing them the Sect Rules, we have not done anything yet. Their ranks, perks, and techniques were all still undecided. Even their residences are all temporary."
Hearing his words, Su Yang nodded, "Thank you. I'll take it from here."
He then spoke to the disciples, "As I mentioned during the exam, the Profound Flower Sect has two factions now. If you want to follow the masses and practice cultivation normally, step onto my right side. If you want to walk the path of pleasure and love and become a dual cultivator, step to my left side. Even though you have plenty of time to decide now, I will still give you five more minutes to decide which path you want to take."
Five minutes later, when the disciples had chosen their path, Su Yang looked at the disciples on each side.
There were about 800 disciples standing on his right side, while the rest were standing on the other side. Moreover, out of the 100 disciples who wanted to become dual cultivators, the majority of them were women, which completely reversed the ratio of men and women from the past.
"Of the 100 disciples, only 9 of them were men. This is quite troublesome." Liu Lanzhi muttered with a frown.
The ratio of men and women is very unbalanced, and he doubts that these 9 men can handle so many partners at once, especially when they are new.
However, if she were to allow things to be, many of these women would not have a cultivation partner until next year, when they recruited more disciples, a situation they should avoid.
Liu Lanzhi turned to look at Su Yang and said, "Hey... Do you think you can handle these disciples until we have more male disciples?"
Su Yang raised his eyebrows. "Are you suggesting that I become their cultivation partner until then? I think the disciples are only allowed to cultivate with fellow disciples."
However, Liu Lanzhi shook his head and spoke, "Well .. That rule technically only applies to Sect elders, not Sect Masters. Since the previous Patriarch was only cultivating with each other and the Sect elders, there was a misconception that the Sect Master was not allowed to cultivate with his disciple. During the early days, the Sect Master was cultivating with disciples without restrictions."
"In addition, the current Profound Flower Sect was no longer in the same place as it used to be. We have new students and new rules. If you want to cultivate with the disciples, I have no problem with that." Liu Lanzhi said again.
Su Yang nodded and said, "We'll see first how things go."
