Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 806 806: You're the Second-in-Command!

Sect Leader?

Qin Heng was slightly taken aback when he heard this. He looked at the girl in front of him with some surprise. He didn't expect her to be a sect leader?

After all, under Qin Heng's Divine Sense, he could clearly discern Yu Junling's actual age. She was just an eighteen-year-old girl and wasn't practicing any martial arts that preserved youth.

In this End of Dharma Age, being a Grandmaster of Transcendence at such a young age was quite impressive, but being the leader of a sect and serving as a sect leader seemed a bit improper.

No matter how strong or weak her cultivation was, Yu Junling's age and experience suggested she almost certainly lacked the ability to manage a sect and would create a huge mess.

A sect required managing countless affairs.

The food, clothing, and maintenance of the sect members, the upkeep of the sect's buildings, pursuing the sect's interests, dealing with nearby forces, as well as considering how to perpetuate and strengthen the sect, and how to expand its scale, these are all duties of a Sect Leader.

Qin Heng didn't think that the young girl in front of him, who still looked a bit inexperienced, could assume the position of a sect leader well, even though her cultivation strength in this End of Dharma Age was considered good.

"Yan Yu Sect, what kind of sect is that?" Qin Heng did not directly discourage Yu Junling, after all, this girl was kind-hearted, risking offending the Saint of the Zhu family to call him away.

"Are you interested?" Yu Junling's eyes lit up when she heard this. She thought Qin Heng had agreed with what she said and was interested in joining Yan Yu Sect. She immediately said excitedly:

"Our Yan Yu Sect has a long history, and the martial arts we practice is called 'Yan Yu Dispersing Flower Skill,' which is very powerful and completely different from ordinary martial arts. It is said to be passed down from an Innate Grandmaster from seven hundred years ago!

How about it, sounds cool, right? Moreover, the fact that I became a Grandmaster of Transcendence at eighteen is enough to prove the greatness of Yan Yu Sect's martial arts. Qin Heng, if you join Yan Yu Sect now, you will be the second-in-command in the sect! Definitely beneath one, above all others!"

"..." Qin Heng noticed that there was something odd about the information in Yu Junling's words. He squinted slightly and chuckled, "How many members does Yan Yu Sect have now?"

"How many, how many members?" Yu Junling's eyes dodged a bit, her pretty face flushed red, and she lowered her head, not daring to meet Qin Heng's eyes. Her manner was quite adorable. After a moment of silence, she raised her head, a bit embarrassed, and said, "Including you, there are, there are two."

"Two people?" Qin Heng couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. It was indeed what he had guessed. He said, "So, it means that currently, Yan Yu Sect only has you, right?"

"Ugh, it's just me now, but in the future Yan Yu Sect will definitely become strong!" Yu Junling said with a serious expression, clenching her small fists, looking very ambitious, "Now that Spiritual Energy is about to revive, soon I'll be able to practice the Innate part of the Yan Yu Skill, become an Innate expert, and hold a place in the Martial Dao world. Well, by then, joining Yan Yu Sect won't be so easy, you should consider it carefully."

In the end, the conversation still circled back to her wanting to recruit Qin Heng into the group, she still hadn't given up.

"Why me?" Qin Heng asked with a bit of amusement, patiently conversing with this ambitious young girl. Yu Junling's appearance of fighting for her dream suited his taste.

"Because you are gifted, I saw it earlier," Yu Junling said confidently. "Yan Yu Dispersing Flower Skill is all-encompassing, not just martial arts, it also includes methods to judge a person's cultivation aptitude.

Upon seeing you, I immediately realized you are definitely a martial arts genius, your spirit almost overflowing. Such a talent not learning martial arts is a real pity!

Moreover, you look quite good, with a nice physique. Being fellow sect members with you, I would also have a pleasing look, don't you think?"

"..." Qin Heng fell silent.

The reasons Yu Junling gave seemed quite reasonable and well-founded, but since when is being good-looking a factor??

This day and age, a sect with just one member recruiting people also depends on looks??

Or is this girl too innocent?

Qin Heng's Divine Sense was extremely powerful. Under its sensing, he could clearly judge whether Yu Junling was lying or deliberately withholding key information.

Therefore, Yu Junling couldn't deceive him.

The earlier situation, all of it was true, and Yu Junling was really thinking just that!

Yan Yu Sect, its prospects seem bleak... Suddenly, Qin Heng felt a sense of melancholy as if he could envision the future when Yu Junling's dreams and ambition would be shattered. It was almost inevitable.

A sect where even the founder is only Innate, and just an eighteen-year-old girl has founded it alone, in the era of Spiritual Energy revival, would surely be drowned in the tide of the times.

And perhaps, no one will even remember it.

After a while.

Qin Heng spoke, looking at Yu Junling, and asked, "Why did you want to start a sect?"

Yu Junling had been waiting for Qin Heng's response. Hearing him speak, she immediately became happy. After hearing Qin Heng's question, she was silent for a while before sighing slightly and saying:

"To be honest, it's a bit selfish. I want to protect my family. With Spiritual Energy revival, the world will inevitably change, and various situations in the past six months have been proving this fact.

The revival of Spiritual Energy will inevitably lead to a transformative era, and even the current social order might collapse. At that time, my family, friends, and I will all be at risk.

I don't want to sit around waiting for death, I want to become strong myself, and also make more people strong. Just relying on my own power, it might be difficult to navigate the new era, so it's better to establish a force or sect in advance."

Her answer was very real, and honest.

Qin Heng nodded and asked, "Since the sect now has only one person, who is your master? Did someone teach you martial arts?"

"No." Yu Junling shook her head lightly and said, "Actually, two years ago, while returning to my old home with my dad, I found a small booklet in the old house, which recorded the Yan Yu Dispersing Flower Skill.

I was curious at the time and started practicing it. Initially, I just wanted to strengthen my body and not be bullied, but unexpectedly, as I practiced, I reached the realm of Open Force, then Hidden Force, and Transcendence, all achieved naturally.

It's just that the path became difficult afterward, and in the past six months, I haven't made any breakthroughs at all."

"Then take me to have a look," Qin Heng smiled lightly, and said to Yu Junling, "Let's see the sect's premises, surely you have a base?"

"You, you mean reject, okay I underst... wait, what did you just say?!?"

Yu Junling originally thought Qin Heng would refuse, but halfway through her words, she suddenly swallowed them, staring at Qin Heng dumbfounded. After a few seconds, she finally came to her senses and said, "You, you really want to go with me to the sect's premises, of course there is, there is!"

She was really very happy!

This implied that she finally had hope of becoming a true Sect Leader, albeit with just this one joining Yan Yu Sect.

Yu Junling was very happy, very delighted.

After leaving the café with Qin Heng, she eagerly led Qin Heng to the sect premises of Yan Yu Sect, intending to continue persuading Qin Heng to join there.

However, when the two arrived at the destination, Yu Junling was stunned, her face turned ashen as she looked at the scene in front of her, shocked.

The Yan Yu Sect premises, which she had painstakingly managed, at this time... had become ruins!
