Double Cultivation
the Profound Flower Sect disciple exam Vl
"90 seconds ?! That's impossible!"
When the people there heard Su Yang's new requirements for those who used to be Profound Flower Sect disciples wanting to return, they felt sorry for this former disciple.
Holding the Demon Heart Pill for 30 seconds was already difficult enough, but they now had to endure it three times longer than the other participants.
In the eyes of these people, Su Yang deliberately made it impossible because he also did not want this former disciple to return to the Sect. After all, Jin Yubo was about to die before he could even last 30 seconds.
However, regardless of how small their chances were, the former disciples were relieved to know that they would be given a second chance to become disciples of the Profound Flower Sect.
"90 seconds? That's pretty cruel." Sun Jingjing chuckled beside him.
"Hm? You also think I oppressed them with an impossible task?" Su Yang raised his eyebrows.
"Eh? You really think that some of them might be able to last 90 seconds?" ask with a surprised face.
"If they really admitted their mistake and really wanted to return to the Profound Flower Sect from the bottom of their hearts, there was no reason why they could not last 90 seconds.
Although it was definitely not something that was easily accomplished even for those with a powerful Heart Dao, it was, it's not fair for those who risk their lives to remain in the Sect if we let them return easily, is it?" said Su Yang.
The news of the Profound Flower Sect giving a second chance to their former disciples quickly spread and reached the ears of the people who left the Sect on that day, caused many former disciples to show up for the exam the next day.
Damn, even those who were already members of other Sects decided to show up and take the risk.
On the fifth day of the exam, Su Liqing noticed a group of beautiful women within the crowd, and her eyes widened in surprise.
This group of beautiful women once worked in the Medicine Hall with him, and they even called him Master.
And since not many people had appeared on the third exam, Su Liqing left the stage for a while to approach Su Yang and said, "Su Yang…"
"Hm? Your students...oh so those girls?" Su Yang naturally recalled the cheerful disciples from the Medicine Hall who always welcomed his visit with a bright smile.
"This may sound very selfish, but I…"
Before he could even finish his sentence, Su Yang spoke with a smile, "Do whatever you want."
"Are you sure…?" he looked at her and then Liu Lanzhi with a worried expression.
"If Su Yang has already given you permission, there is no need to question further." Liu Lanzhi suddenly spoke, "Although their decision on that day greatly disappointed me, it doesn't mean that I really hate the disciples. Besides, since they are your disciples, Elder Lan, I'm sure they are not bad disciples, so, I'm willing to forgive them."
"T-Thank you, Matriak!" Su Liqing bowed to him and approached the group of beautiful women in the crowd.
However, the people there did not dare to block his path and make an empty path for him to pass through.
"Teachers…"
As Su Liqing stood in front of his former disciple, they all looked at him with embarrassed expressions on their faces and were unsure what to say to him, like a group of little children who realized their mistake before being scolded.
"Well? What do you have to say to yourself? At least give me some reason." Su Liqing asked them with a calm expression.
"K-We have no reason to make, Master .. We are afraid of the Sect of a Million Snakes, and everyone else is gone too, so we run away like cowards."
Su Liqing sighed softly and said, "You girls aren't the only ones who are afraid because I'm trembling too, so I understand your feelings. However, you guys also promised to protect the Sect at the expense of your life when you became a disciple for the first time."
"…" The girls remained silent, because they did not want to make the situation worse.
"Do you girls want to go back to the Sect?" Su Liqing suddenly asked them.
The girls nodded with confused looks.
"Do you guys think you can hold the Demon Heart Pill for 90 seconds?" he asked them.
"K-We won't know until we try it. Even if the odds are small, we should try."
Su Liqing sighed and said, "Although you might not notice it, you, I am deeply indebted to you girls for volunteering to work at the Medicine Hall when no one else wanted to work there, and I never got a chance to thank you all."
"I've got permission from the Sect Master to allow you girls to return to the Sect, so you don't need to take the exam" Su Liqing said again.
"What-What ?!" The girls looked at him with shocked expressions of disbelief.
"Once the Sect becomes active again, we will need the people who work in the Medicine Hall, and I will need some disciples to help me. And also, that doesn't mean you guys really got away with it. I will definitely employ you until your bones are crushed as punishment" Su Liqing said.
"T-Thank you, Master! We will not forget this debt for the rest of our lives!" The girls started crying there later.
"i'm not the one you should thank. If it wasn't for the Sect Master's permission, even I wouldn't be able to help you. Come with me to greet the Sect Master." Su Liqing said.
The girls nodded and followed Su Liqing while the people around them watched her with envious gazes, especially the other former disciples.
As soon as they stood in front of Su Yang and Liu Lanzhi, the girls kowtowed on the ground and spoke in a loud and clear voice, "Thank you, Sect Master, for your leniency towards these unfaithful disciples! We will never leave this Sect again, and we will protect the Sect even at the cost of our lives!"
