Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 154: Win people’s hearts?

With leisurely steps, they soon arrived at the training ground in the center of Yunlan Sect. Many disciples gathered in pairs of three or two, practicing sword techniques and physical skills from time to time.

"Young Sect Master Yanran, is this idea yours because you haven't received any guidance from others in a long time?"

"No! My own training speed isn't that bad!"

"Hey, I was just being sentimental. If it weren't for what Young Sect Master Yanran said, I wouldn't have wanted to come."

Nalan Yanran didn't believe a word of what Elder Shuang said. Even if she said something wonderful, she would not be shaken at all.

Nalan Yanran was sure that the other party was not a person who coveted power, and that everything he did must have some purpose. But no matter what, since he was going to be the deputy sect leader, it was impossible that he didn't want to gain any authority and respect, right?

Even someone as virtuous as his teacher Yun Yun would have some need for such worldly thoughts, let alone someone with such a rebellious and eccentric nature.
But what Nalan Yanran didn't know was that Hun Ruoruo was really not interested in this so-called deputy sect leader at all, let alone preaching. She was very selfish and didn't want to teach others the real things at all. Even with Nalan Yanran in front of her, she was just fooling around and playing with him.

It's not that easy to call her teacher.

Hun Ruoruo walked along the edge of the training ground to the entrance. Her moon-white elder's robe made her beautiful body look ethereal and elegant. Her gaze exuded a charming demeanor that was completely different from before.

The disciples guarding the entrance looked into those eyes, deep and tranquil like water, and felt as if their souls had been sucked away. Their throats went dry, and they stammered, "Elder Shuangshuang."

They also attended the sermon hosted by Yun Ling last time, and had caught a glimpse of Hun Ruoruo's face from afar, but a glimpse is not as good as seeing her up close. Looking at her now, they felt that the slender and mature Elder Shuang in front of them was like a sword immortal who had descended to the earth.

When Nalan Yanran took a few steps closer, Hun Ruoruo tilted her head slightly and whispered in praise, "While others were cultivating, you were actually guarding the door. My Yunlan Sect has selfless disciples like you. It is truly a sign of its rise."

A pleasant sound like the sound of a spring rang out, and the faces of several disciples suddenly turned as red as monkeys' butts. They were not here to be guards at all, but simply did not want to go there so early to face the ugly face of Elder Yun Ling.

However, facing this elder whom they met for the first time, several people scratched their heads and could not think of any excuse to shirk.

Or, even if he thought of it, he would not want to say it out loud. Who would be so shameless as to lie to such a fairy-like person?
After a long while, a handsome young man could no longer contain himself and stood up. He clasped his fists in shame and said, "Elder, I am right. I know I was wrong."

Hun Ruoruo frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "...When did I say you were wrong?"

The young man felt even more ashamed. He had never expected this elder to be so considerate. Compared to him, he and his companions felt ashamed to be disciples of the Yunlan Sect. For a moment, he couldn't help but reveal his true feelings.
"Elder Shuang, I understand your meaning, but our previous actions were indeed inappropriate. We shouldn't have opposed the teachings of Great Elder Yun Ling because of a momentary prejudice."

"Now that I think about it, apart from being a bit stoic, rigid, harsh, and easily angered, and judging people by their behavior, being strict with others and lenient with himself, Elder Yun Ling is actually quite good."

Nalan Yanran on the side: "..."

Is this good?
Although she felt the same way, it seemed she couldn't say it out loud, right?

Seeing the atmosphere suddenly become quiet, the young man was stunned for a moment, until the disciple next to him desperately poked his spine, and then he reacted belatedly, and immediately a chill rose from his body to his head.

Finished!

His legs were shaking, and he was about to kneel down, but was held up by invisible fighting spirit.

Hun Ruoruo's expression had returned to calm by now. She suppressed a smile and said sincerely, "As an elder, it's not entirely your fault that you caused such strong opinions from your disciples."

"This elder has always adhered to the principle of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude. I'm afraid I cannot agree with his actions. You don't need to worry about me punishing you."

When the disciples heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up with surprise, and their admiration was almost beyond words.
"Not only has Elder Shuang attained Dou Wang strength at such a young age, but he also possesses such insight and attainments in teaching his disciples. No wonder the Young Sect Master's cultivation has advanced so rapidly since he began training with you! The Young Sect Master truly possesses great fortune."

"I..." Hearing this, Nalan Yanran's eyelids twitched, and even her temples seemed to bulge out.

If she remembered correctly, the way this hateful woman who pretended to be dignified taught her seemed to be to keep calling him "Third Young Master" and "Third Young Master", right?

This woman calls this teaching students in accordance with their aptitude?!

Nalan Yanran has been the center of attention since she was a child, and has received countless praises and compliments. She hates that kind of blind flattery the most.

But the young man's praise was so sincere that the word "sincere" was almost written on his face.

She couldn't argue.

The calls of "Third Young Master" were really useful.

At the very least, she was furious after hearing this, and she wished she could devote all her energy to cultivation, so that her cultivation level would increase with half the effort...

Thinking of this, Nalan Yanran sighed helplessly. This Elder Shuang was really acting like a real person. Why should she worry about her? With just a few words, she could frame these disciples, bewildering them and making them feel grateful. How could that old, mean, and rigid Yun Leng compare with her in popularity?

Hun Ruoruo thought for a moment and said to the disciples, "As an elder of the Yunlan Sect, it's naturally impossible for me to teach only the young sect master. Let me talk to the great elder Yun Ling later. I haven't fulfilled my duties in preaching the Dharma yet, so I don't think he will care."

The disciples were overjoyed and bowed repeatedly, respectfully escorting Hun Ruoruo and the other two into the training ground, claiming that they would come to see what happened after Yun Leng left.

Walking in the training ground, Nalan Yanran and Hun Ruoruo were speechless for a while.

After a while, Nalan Yanran took the initiative to break the silence and said, "Elder Shuang's methods are truly unprecedented to Yanran. It seems that it won't be long before I will call you Frost Sect Master."

To be honest, she felt quite honored that the only two sect masters in the sect had both taught her. Such resources were incomparable even to Xiao Yan, right?
Although one of the sect leaders was also teaching Xiao Yan, not only that, he seemed quite biased.

but……

Two against one, the advantage is naturally on my side.

Hun Ruoruo chuckled and said, "My ability to adapt to changing circumstances is very strong. Young Sect Master Yanran, please don't underestimate me."

"Uh... adaptability?"

Nalan Yanran was stunned and felt that something was wrong.

"Yes, yes."

Hun Ruoruo nodded, then clenched her fist in anger and said, "Who would have thought that they weren't guarding the gate? They even said I was deliberately teaching them a lesson. Isn't that a bit too much?"

"..."

Nalan Yanran had no expression on her face and said no more.

　I took the time to get the mobile code. If there are any typos, I will correct them tomorrow.
