Beauties in Simulation Cross over into Reality - Chapter 301 - 269: Engraved with a Blood Demon Flower

Seven days had passed since the great battle.

In those seven days, the Wandao Sect continued to operate as usual.

Most Cultivators were not significantly affected.

After all, the larger a Sect, the greater its inertia and the higher its resistance to risk.

Even though many Hall Masters, Peak Masters, and Elders had died in the battle, their second-in-commands simply stepped in to temporarily fill their roles.

But one matter could not be ignored.

A Sect cannot be without a leader.

Just as a kingdom cannot be without a king.

A few days were fine, but as time went on, some Cultivators began to feel uneasy.

Within the Wandao Sect, many Cultivators had already started speculating about who the next Sect Leader would be.

Most disciples of the Wandao Sect believed the next Sect Leader would likely be Elder Shi of the Punishment Hall.

Elder Shi of the Punishment Hall was at Immortal Realm Perfection, over seven thousand years old, and possessed immense experience.

Moreover, in his years managing the Punishment Hall, Elder Shi had been known for his clear-cut rewards and punishments, earning him a strong reputation within the Wandao Sect.

Therefore, in the disciples’ eyes, Elder Shi was a choice for Sect Leader who could win the people’s support.

But in all this time, Elder Shi had not said a word.

And it wasn’t just Elder Shi; all the high-ranking members of the Wandao Sect remained silent.

Not a single one of them tried to contend for the position of Sect Leader. It was as if they were all waiting for something.

「Half a month after the battle.」

A man in a black shirt left Blood Sin Peak and walked straight toward Wandao Hall on the main peak of the Wandao Sect.

With every step he took, the Spiritual Power beneath his feet pulsed throughout the entire Wandao Sect.

The man did not walk quickly. It seemed he wanted the entire Sect to see where he was going and to know what he was about to do.

The man’s high-profile emergence naturally caught the attention of all the high-ranking members of the Wandao Sect.

They all raised their heads and looked in his direction.

Without the slightest hesitation, the high-ranking members of the Wandao Sect flew toward the main peak and entered Wandao Hall.

Inside the grand hall, the various Hall Masters, Peak Masters, and Elders stood on both sides.

They said nothing, simply gazing outside Wandao Hall.

An incense stick’s worth of time later, the man in the black shirt walked through the doors of Wandao Hall.

All the high-ranking members of the Wandao Sect bowed their heads.

Xiao Mo didn’t spare them a glance.

He simply walked forward.

At the very front of the hall was a flight of several dozen steps.

At the top of the steps was the Sect Leader’s throne, which had existed since the founding of the Wandao Sect.

Xiao Mo ascended the steps one by one.

His figure was tall, straight, and steady.

Reaching the high-tier platform, Xiao Mo glanced dispassionately at the Profound Iron Throne before him, then turned, sat down, and looked down upon the high-ranking members of the Wandao Sect.

“From today onward, I am the Sect Leader of the Wandao Sect.” Xiao Mo looked at the crowd, his tone calm. “Anyone who objects may step forward.”

Xiao Mo’s voice traveled out of the hall, echoing throughout the entire Wandao Sect.

He was not just speaking to the high-ranking members present, but to the entire Wandao Sect.

In the great hall, the Elders, Peak Masters, and Hall Masters exchanged glances before bowing in unison.

Their voices also carried out from Wandao Hall, reaching every corner of the Wandao Sect:

“We greet the Sect Leader!”

In an extremely short amount of time, the news that Xiao Mo had become the Sect Leader of the Wandao Sect spread to everyone, from the highest to the lowest echelons of the Sect.

Some felt it was only natural, as Xiao Mo’s strength was simply too outrageous.

Others felt that Xiao Mo lacked experience, as he was far too young.

But regardless, everyone had to admit that for the first time in tens of thousands of years in the Western Regions, a man with a bone age of just over twenty had become the Sect Leader of one of the Ten Great Demon Sects.

It was unprecedented.

After becoming the Sect Leader of the Wandao Sect, Xiao Mo issued a series of Sect Leader’s Orders within two days.

His junior sister, Yu Yunwei, was appointed Vice Sect Leader. Si Li of Ten Thousand Flowers Peak was appointed Peak Master of Ten Thousand Flowers Peak and joined the council of elders.

The two of them would assist Xiao Mo in managing all matters, large and small, within the Sect.

Their orders were to be treated as Xiao Mo’s own, and no one was to defy them.

As for the high-ranking members who had sided with Xiao Mo at the time:

Those who were already Hall Masters, Peak Masters, or Elders and could not be promoted further were rewarded with three Half-Immortal Soldiers from the Wandao Sect’s treasury, and the annual stipend for their respective peaks or halls was tripled.

Cultivators who were previously second or third-in-command of a hall or peak were given direct control over their respective domains.

Xiao Mo then enacted the Laws of the Wandao Sect, establishing new rules for the Sect.

Its contents included prohibitions against: attacking ordinary Cultivators and people of the Mortal World without cause, or using them to refine Elixirs or for blood sacrifices; framing and killing fellow sect members; and all Evil Techniques that used the flesh, blood, or Divine Souls of others as nourishment. Furthermore, a new rule dictated that disciples of the Wandao Sect could only practice Dual Cultivation, not the Absorption Technique.

The Laws of the Wandao Sect comprised a total of thirty articles.

The moment these laws were announced, they sparked discontent among many disciples.

Some practiced Cultivation Techniques that fed on the flesh and Divine Souls of others. To achieve a breakthrough, they would often perform blood sacrifices on entire cities in the Mortal World, or even entire Dynasties.

Others practiced the Absorption Technique rather than the Dual Cultivation Technique. After all, Dual Cultivation was too slow, whereas absorbing the power of others was the fastest way to improve.

The laws Xiao Mo enacted undoubtedly struck at the very core of their practices.

They even began to wonder if they were still in a Demon Sect, or if they had somehow ended up in one of the Renowned and Righteous Sects.

’After all, if a Demon Sect doesn’t let you do whatever you want, can it still be called a Demon Sect?’

For a time, several halls and peaks were on the verge of rebellion.

And Xiao Mo’s response was simple: kill.
