Starting as a clan leader: My rules are a bit wild.

We deserve to die!

They fell into deep self-blame.

Sudden.

Pfft!

An inner disciple knelt on the ground and said with shame: "What Elder Lu is scolding is that we were blinded by lard, and because of jealousy, we are not even willing to use our brains to analyze the reason. It's really..." You deserve it.”

"Please ask Elder Lu to punish you."

"We will never shirk it. If you frown even a little, you are not worthy of being a disciple of the Haoyue Sect!"

"Please ask Elder Lu to punish you."

The sound of popping is endless.

Almost in an instant, these inner disciples were already kneeling in large numbers.

And they all asked for punishment.

"Humph!"

Lu Ming didn't say anything, but Wen Ruyan, the little follower, immediately snorted: "What do you mean by the word stupid? You are stupid, mindless, and jealous."

"It is indeed worthy of punishment!"

"Elder Lu, please don't be polite to them. You must be severely punished."

"Otherwise, if others follow suit in the future, wouldn't the sect be in chaos?!"

Elder Chen smiled helplessly.

Lu Ming nodded: "You deserve the punishment."

"It does deserve a severe punishment!"

Hearing this, the inner disciples smiled bitterly.

However, they had no complaints.

You made mistakes without thinking, and you made them first, so you still dare to complain?

Isn’t it true that one mistake is made again and again, and one mistake is made to the end?

only···

Heavy punishment!

They smiled bitterly, and at the same time they all guessed what kind of punishment it would be.

"If the punishment is heavy...it must be heavy, right?"

"You...hey, you are really talented."

"Perhaps you are thinking about crossing a cliff?"

"Maybe cleaning toilets."

"At least you have to go out to slay demons, or do voluntary work for the sect, and collect some kind of materials, right?"

"···"

While he was thinking about it, Lu Ming spoke again: "I'll punish you..."

Gudong.

Everyone is staring at him, waiting for the penalty.

"I will punish you and others. You will all be in seclusion and practice hard for a year. If you violate the rules, even if this elder refines the elixir in the future, he will not have a share!"

"Ah?!" Wen Ruyan was shocked.

Many inner disciples who thought they were 'dead' suddenly raised their heads, their faces full of disbelief.

Elder Chen stared at Lu Ming for a long, long time.

The gaze is extremely profound.

"Elder Lu, are you..."

"I've mispoken?"

"Is it to think about crossing the cliff, not to practice hard in seclusion?" someone reminded in a low voice.

"Yes."

Lu Ming slowly shook his head: "It is difficult to cross the cliff, but are the conditions suitable for practice?"

"You are all the geniuses of our Haoyue Sect and the future of our Haoyue Sect."

"Only when you become stronger, our Haoyue Sect will become even more powerful in the future!"

"Every generation has its own mission, and now, your mission is to work hard to become stronger and contribute to the sect when it needs you!"

"What's more, most of you are young people. Young people are high-spirited and it is difficult for young people to calm down and practice hard. It is already a very severe punishment to punish you with hard work for one year."

"Wait, are there any dissenters?"

Everyone was numb.

Then he shook his head like a rattle.

My brain was almost shaken!

How dare you refuse to accept this?

I'm afraid my brain is flooded!

Even if you dare not accept this, we will be the first to refuse.

Besides, where is this heavy punishment? This is not even a light punishment... No, this is not even a punishment!

This is obviously giving us benefits!

Please note that one year of seclusion and hard training...

For some monks, a year passes in just one retreat, but for most of them, nearly half of the time is 'wasted'.

Or being delayed by trivial matters.

Or maybe they are tired of sect tasks...

It is considered good to be able to practice without any worries for half a year.

But this time Lu Ming's 'punishment' directly allowed everyone to practice without distinction for a year, and they could even no longer take into account the sect's tasks...

Is anyone dissatisfied?

And Lu Ming's 'Ling Arrow'!

It was Elder Lu who asked me to retreat. Could it be that your words are more effective than Elder Lu?

What kind of heavy punishment is this?

This is obviously the benefit that Elder Lu has fought for for us!

But···

We are obviously stupid!

Not only did he suspect that the sect and Elder Lu were being unfair, he also framed his fellow sect members and almost caused a catastrophe!

As a result, Elder Lu kept saying that he would be severely punished, but in fact, he gave us such benefits, this and this...

I wait, I deserve it!

For a time, they almost lost the ability to speak. They were all surrounded by strong shame and almost collapsed.

"Ugh."

Lu Ming sighed softly, shook his head slowly, and whispered: "The palm of the hand is flesh, and the back of the hand is also flesh."

"We are all disciples in the sect, and they are all the mainstays of the sect's future. How can we and other senior sect members favor one over the other?"

"It's just that... the current conditions don't allow it, so we can only let some people 'move' first."

"You guys will have your turn sooner or later."

"Scold you and punish you?"

He smiled helplessly, turned and left.

Only soft murmurs were left and drifted away in the wind.

"No one thinks that this elder wants to do this, right?"

"The punishment will be on you, and the pain will be on my heart."

This was supposed to be 'talking to oneself', and the voice was indeed very soft.

But who here is not a cultivator of the sixth realm or above?

Each ear works better than the other, so you can naturally hear clearly.

And hearing this...

The disciples were even more ashamed.

Snapped!

Many monks gave themselves two big blows at that time: "I really deserve to die!"

"I actually misunderstood Elder Lu as being unfair?!?!"

"I have a pig brain!!!"

"I want to kill myself, how could I be such a bastard? Ah? I am a bastard!"

Some people suddenly stood up and said: "Nothing to say, I will go into seclusion immediately to practice hard!"

"If I don't practice hard for a year, I vow not to leave seclusion!"

"Just hard training? Humph!" This person's enemy said coldly: "Not only do I have to practice hard for a year, I must also achieve something and make obvious progress. Otherwise, I will let down Elder Lu's hard work and I will fucking lose myself." I won’t forgive myself!”

"Do you think you're the only one who's like this? It's the same for me too!"

"Just fight!"

"If I don't work hard to make a name for myself, and if I can't contribute to the sect in the future, I won't even die with my eyes closed! I won't even have the face to see Elder Lu again!"
