1: Chapter 1 A Lin Daiyu Fell From the Sky

If you have arrived here, please leave your brain at the door and enter in an orderly fashion.

This is a harem novel with Rebellious Disciples attacking their master, Sect cultivation, and management. The beginning is a bit cliché, focused on 'staying low-profile' and setting the stage. If you do not like face-slapping tropes, you can choose to finish the first 5 chapters and jump to 28.

Thank you.

Of course, the middle section is setup, so some information might be missing. After chapter 50, I will focus on sweet and spicy content while advancing the main plot. I believe those who enjoy such things will be satisfied.

This book supports 'getting on the car, testing the vehicle, and buying the ticket later.' Once the first one is pushed, we go straight to the fast lane.

Setup first, eating meat later!!!

Also, please be patient. The Sect will be entirely female; I will definitely recruit them all!!! (35)

Every Disciple in the Sect will be one!!! (Grand Ceremony)

Cangwu Prefecture, Qing State, Tianyuan Mountain.

A blood moon hung in the sky, and the mountains revealed their ferocious silhouettes under the crimson moonlight.

"Hehehe! I searched high and low for this, but it was effortless to find."

Under a certain tree, a woman with weak vital signs lay on her back. She wore a simple, elegant moon-white dress, but it was now covered in dust and glaring bloodstains, making her look broken and fragile.

The fabric clinging to her body outlined her stunningly curvaceous figure.

Her slender waist was barely a handful, leading down to full, rounded hips, while a pair of long, straight legs were faintly visible beneath the torn hem of her skirt.

Her ink-jade-like long hair was scattered beneath her. A few strands stuck to her sweat-dampened neck and heaving chest, which, rather than detracting from her beauty, only served to highlight the world-shaking elegance of her pale face.

A faint cinnabar tear mole marked the corner of her left eye, like a plum blossom in the snow. Even in her unconscious state, she radiated a cold and aloof aura that kept people at a distance.

The intersection of brokenness and cold beauty formed a fatal temptation.

Ling Hao walked over to the woman, squatted down, and grinned.

"Young lady, would you like to be the Deputy Sect Master of my Moonshadow Sect..."

The faint rise and fall of the woman's chest proved she still had a breath left.

On her cold, pretty face, thick erosion qi coiled and roamed. A trace of undried blood remained at the corner of her pale lips, looking exceptionally sorrowfully beautiful under the crimson moonlight.

Ling Hao sighed lightly and carefully brushed away a few strands of hair dampened by sweat from her forehead.

"Since you aren't speaking, I will take that as a yes."

The only response he received was the sudden wailing of the wind blowing through the crevices of the rocks nearby.

"Alright, System, the condition of having two people has been met, hurry up and distribute the rewards."

Ling Hao turned his head slightly, his gaze falling on a blue fluorescent screen.

Prerequisite Task: [Establish a Sect] Select a mountain range and found a Sect.

Requirement: Please find a suitable person to serve as the Deputy Sect Master.

Rewards: Sect Main Hall (Unlocked), Courtyard Residence (Unlocked), Sheng-Sheng Creation Spring (Unlocked), Sect-Protecting Taiyin Cycle Array, Sect Grotto-Heaven.

Half a year ago, Ling Hao transmigrated into this world with his Physical Body.

This was a cultivation world where the rules had collapsed and erosion qi was pervasive.

erosion qi treated everyone equally, including the high and mighty Cultivators.

For Mortals, if too much erosion qi accumulates, their bodies collapse, leading to death. As for Cultivators, their Realm drops, their Physical Body degenerates, their Lifespan is depleted, and their Foundation is damaged, among other things.

But perhaps because Ling Hao was not a local, the erosion qi seemed ineffective against him?

Ling Hao naturally longed to fly through the sky and burrow into the earth, but unfortunately, he had a Yellow Grade Five Spiritual Root, and no Sect wanted him.

On the night of the Eclipsing Moon, the long-awaited System finally arrived.

Since others didn't want him, he would create his own Sect and be the Sect Master himself!

But Ling Hao looked around; it was a desolate wilderness, so where was he supposed to find a second person?

Then... a beauty fell from the sky.

Sure enough, heaven never blocks all paths!

After Ling Hao finished speaking, the air fell slightly silent; the System seemed to be weighing the situation?

Just as Ling Hao thought this opportunistic method would not work, a cold, feminine voice rang out in his mind.

"Ding! 'Establish a Sect' task completed."

"Please choose the location for the Sect."

Where else could it be? "Tianyuan Mountain!"

"Please choose a name for the Sect."

Ling Hao rubbed his chin, the corners of his mouth curling up, "Moonshadow Sect!"

As soon as the three words 'Moonshadow Sect' were spoken, it was as if space had shifted. In a daze, Ling Hao found himself standing on the peak of Tianyuan Mountain.

In front of him was a magnificent Sect Main Hall, and with it as the center, pavilions and buildings rose in succession.

High above the Sect Main Hall, a layer of transparent film extended, shaped like an inverted bowl, covering the entire peak.

When the crimson moonlight passed through this film, it returned to its original silvery-white color.

In an instant, a Sect was established.

Standing within it, Ling Hao took a deep breath. Although his Physical Body had not been affected by the erosion qi, he now felt that the surrounding air was much fresher.

Looking at the System panel again, the data had been refreshed.

Upon accepting the first Disciple, the Sect Master's cultivation will increase to Qi Refining Fourth Level.

None of this mattered much, except for that countdown, which was particularly glaring.

Is it really necessary? Qi Refining First Level, and it is a limited-time trial card at that.

Ling Hao shook his head helplessly, "Looks like I need to recruit people as soon as possible..."

That way, he could become a Qi Refining Fourth Level Cultivator in one step!

"However, the most urgent task is to save this person first."

Ling Hao leaned over and scooped the cold, aloof woman into his arms.

As his arms touched her thin body, through her simple, elegant dress stained with dust and blood, the warmth and contours belonging to a woman were clearly transmitted to him.

The woman's ink-black long hair cascaded down like a waterfall. As the night wind blew, a few strands playfully brushed against Ling Hao's neck, carrying a faint, refreshing scent of plum blossoms that tugged at his heartstrings.

Ling Hao carried her and walked steadily toward the back of the Sect Main Hall.

In the center of the garden behind the hall, a spring eye was gurgling, gushing out silvery Spiritual Qi, the dense Spiritual Qi almost solidifying.

This was the Sheng-Sheng Creation Spring capable of clearing away erosion qi.

The spring had just opened, and the water was only a shallow pool, but its immense vitality had already revitalized the surrounding plants, and the air was sweet and crisp.

Ling Hao supported the unconscious woman and knelt halfway by the spring.

The spring water was clear and cold, its aura drilling straight into Ling Hao's nose, carrying an indescribable temptation that immediately made him feel parched.

Once the thought arose, Ling Hao did not think too much; he simply leaned over, scooped up a handful of spring water with his hand, and brought it to his lips.

"Gulp." The cool, sweet liquid slid down his throat, carrying a strange, refreshing sweetness.

Almost instantly, a gentle and immense vitality rose from his abdomen, rushing straight through his limbs and bones, feeling indescribably comfortable, and even his spirit was invigorated.

Ling Hao's eyes lit up, and he smacked his lips. The vitality contained in this spiritual spring far exceeded his expectations. As expected of something produced by the System.

He looked down at the erosion qi on the woman's pale face in his arms, which was like a maggot on a bone, and let her lean against his arm.

He supported the woman's jaw with one hand, letting her delicate mouth open slightly, and with the other hand, he scooped up the clear spring water again, feeding the cooling spiritual spring into her mouth.

One handful, two handfuls... "Strange, why hasn't she woken up after feeding her so much?"

Ling Hao wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, his brows tightly knitted.

This amount was enough to fill her up! Helpless, he could only continue.

Only after almost exhausting the newly gushed spring water did the erosion qi on the woman's face, which was like a maggot on a bone, slowly fade away, and a trace of color returned to her pale face.

Her long, thick eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, and she finally opened her tightly closed, beautiful eyes.

What came into view was a handsome face close at hand—sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, a straight nose bridge, and glistening water droplets on his lips.

The two locked eyes... "Slap!"

A crisp sound exploded in the moonlit garden. The woman's wrist was firmly gripped by Ling Hao's iron-clamp-like hand!

Damn?! Is this how you treat your savior?

"Slap!" Immediately following, an even louder, crisper sound followed.

Ling Hao's other hand slapped, without hesitation, onto the woman's firm, perky buttocks.

The force was not heavy, but it carried a full sense of punishment, causing her buttocks to tremble slightly.

"You...!" The woman's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, filled with shame and indignation.
