the doors and windows tightly, sat cross-legged on the bed, and silently recited the Sutra of Serenity dozens of times before finally calming down. He then focused his mind and activated his cultivati...After enduring countless hardships, even the esteemed head of a formidable sect wept like rain.

Qin Sang sighed with regret.

“As a humble disciple, I apologize for the inconvenience caused by my tardiness. Please forgive me, Master.”

Mei Gu wiped away her tears, and her youngest daughter's posture vanished in an instant. Her expression quickly returned to normal.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Qin Sang bowed his head and said, "I remember that before I left, several of you had just recently established your foundation. I was just putting on a show, but to be able to lead the Mo Yan Men to this point is truly beyond my expectations."

"This is not just the credit of one disciple. Lu, Shi-di, even before betraying us, put his full effort into helping me. Zhao, Shi-di's dedication to our sect is no less than mine. We worked together with all our might and fortunately encountered several opportunities along the way, which led us to where we are today..."

Mei Gu was very humble, she did not take sole credit, and she especially emphasized Zhao Shanran's contributions.

She told him about a few things, seeing that Qin Sang was very interested and did not stop her. She then briefly recounted her experiences over the past hundred years.

Qin Sang saw Mei Gu's intentions and said directly: "Those who have made achievements should be rewarded naturally. Although Zhao Shanran is old, I see that his cultivation is well-polished, and he may not have the possibility of forming a golden core."

Mei Gu, upon hearing this, was overjoyed and said, "Disciple bids Master Zhao's greetings to the Headmaster."

Qin Sang waved his hand to stop Mei Gu from bowing. His tone changed, and he asked, "Let's not talk about others first. What are your plans for the future The fact that you can form a golden elixir in such circumstances shows that you not only have strategic talent, but also excellent cultivation aptitude and opportunities."

“Master, disciple dares to ask. Please, Master, considering the disciple’s utmost dedication to the sect, could you bestow guidance on my cultivation, allowing me to progress further in the immortal path! The disciple is willing to give up everything, hoping that Master will fulfill this wish!”

Mei Gu seemed to have a plan in mind all along, acting decisively and without hesitation, she knelt down on the ground.

In the past, she dared not dream of how far she could continue on the path of immortality. She had intended to devote all her efforts to developing her sect.

Qin Sang's appearance gave her a glimmer of hope.

The sect now has the most solid support.

More importantly, the headmaster turned out to be a Yuan Ying ancestor. Meigu knew that this would be the greatest opportunity of her life, and she had to seize it no matter what.

"Alright, I accept you as my disciple."

Qin Sang readily agreed, nodding.

He had a good impression of Mei Gu and incorporated the Demon Flame Sect into Qingyang Guan. Mei Gu and her followers became the backbone of the sect.

Mei Gu didn't expect it to go so smoothly. She thought she had misheard and was stunned for a moment before reacting.

“Greetings, Master!”

Mei Gu suppressed the ecstasy in her heart, serious and meticulous, she performed the disciple greeting.

Qin Sang raised his palm in a gesture, allowing Mei Gu to stand up. He said solemnly, "From now on, you are my second disciple. You have some fellow disciples elsewhere. However, we cannot let you meet them for now."

Mei Gu was puzzled.

Qin Sang pondered for a moment and said, "Back then, this old master made an enemy who forced me to flee. My enemy is powerful, and I cannot show myself publicly right now. I need to disguise myself as someone else temporarily. You will continue to lead the Demon Flame Sect. As for my cultivation level, you already know it. Please don't tell anyone else."

Mei Gu was startled. No wonder the headmaster had been missing for so long.

What shocked her even more was that the enemy was so formidable. Even the sect master, a powerful Yuan Ying ancestor, was being so cautious.

"The disciple understands!"

Meigu didn't ask any more questions.

The grievances between Master Yuan Ying and his predecessors are not something she can be involved in.

Qin Sang nodded and handed Mei Gu a jade slip, "After you lead your disciples to the front line, give this to the head of Yuan Shen Men. He and I have some acquaintance, although Yuan Shen Men is a righteous sect, they can also help you."

Mei Gu received the jade slip, carefully put it away, and calmed her mind.

>

The Xiaohan domain has two major factions, the righteous and the demonic, who although have their differences, always unite against external threats. This confrontation with Cytobane is no exception; both sides are working together wholeheartedly, ensuring that the Yuan Shen Gate Lord can look after them.

With Master Yuan Ying vouching for me, safety is guaranteed.

Then, Qin Sang gifted Meigu a mid-grade magic treasure as a reward and personally gave her some pointers before once again suppressing her cultivation to the結丹 period. He instructed Meigu to bring Zhao Shanran and the others in.

"...See the Headmaster..."

Zhao Shanran and others bowed in greeting.

Qin Sang pointed at Zhao Shanran and said in a deep voice, "Mei Gu mentioned earlier that you have worked hard for the sect these years, with both merit and hardship. These two pills are effective in assisting in forming an elixir core. They are awarded to you as a reward. You refine the pills, practice diligently, and still have a chance to form an elixir core."

Having said that, Qin Sang lightly tapped her fingers.

A jade bottle containing two sachets of Demonic Suppression Pills flew toward Zhao Shanran.

After Qin Sang returned, he didn't sell any of the Sha Yao Dan, keeping them all in his possession.

Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!

Zhao Shanran hurriedly caught the jade bottle, his face filled with excitement. He knelt down and bowed, "Disciple Zhao Shanran, thanks to the Headmaster. The disciple will do everything in his power to repay the Headmaster's great kindness."

“Get up. Just remember this. Never betray your master from now on, or Lu Xing will be a warning example for you all!”

Qin Sang's voice turned cold.

All the disciples shivered and dared not speak.

"And you all, can also exchange your merits for it," Qin Sang looked at the other disciples, "With the coming war, it is a temporary measure to allow those in the Foundation Establishment realm to take one pill first. However, let me warn you, you had better try to form your golden core yourselves first. If you fail, then take the pill. This pill can increase your chance of forming your golden core, but the price is being enveloped by evil energy. Not only will it affect your strength, but in the future, when you encounter bottlenecks in your cultivation, the difficulty of breaking through will also greatly increase."

Upon hearing this, the crowd displayed a variety of expressions.

Zhao Shanran didn't care at all. He only cared about forming the Golden Core now and didn't mind the price.

"This evil spirit isn't without a way to eradicate it. Taking some medicinal herbs that target the ailment can clear it away. This old man won't interfere. Whether you can find the right medicine depends on your own abilities."

Qin Sang gave Mei Gu a jade slip, inside of which were recorded various kinds of spiritual herbs.

These elixirs, while nearly depleted in Canglang Sea, are not hard to find in Xiao Han domain for now, but the price won't be cheap either. Consider it a part of their trials and tribulations.

After that, Qin Sang stayed at the Mo Yan Men, leaving some resources for the sect, and together with Mei Gu, they formulated plans for the development of the sect, preparing for its future merger into Qing Yang Guan and joining the righteous path.

When Mei Gu learned the truth, she didn't feel any resistance. Instead, she was delighted to have a chance to escape from the demonic path.

The day of departure soon arrived.

As previously arranged, Zhao Shanran stayed behind, while Mei Gu led the other disciples to the front lines.

Before departing, Qin Sang called Mei Gu over and passed on to her several life-saving methods.

"This time, you have one more task."

Qin Sang only then revealed his true purpose, "Approaching the Qingyang Demon Sect without making a sound, it would be best to befriend an old demon's direct disciple and inquire about the old demon's disposition and news of the Ancestral Saint Fire..."

A flash of surprise crossed Mei Gu's eyes.

Qin Sang comforted, "Don't overthink it. My enemy is not the old demon. The ancestral sacred fire is somewhat useful to me. If possible, I hope to make a deal with the old demon. I am stretched thin, so you go and investigate on my behalf first."

Meigu's heart felt a moment of ease, "Disciple obeys!"e!“Just a few disciples, blind eyes, not even recognizing their uncles and masters, dare to stop us from entering the island. Gao certainly deserves some punishment!”The strongman sneered, a look of d...
