Chapter 237: Chapter 213: Stay Away from Jiang Cheng_3
“`

“Mm.”

“Mo, Qingxuan University has already started their holiday, but Liang Lu’s studies and cultivation cannot be neglected. She is the absolute core of our current plan. Her future upper limit concerns the development of our branch for the next thousand years. I entrust this to you.”

Mo Ningdan possessed the cultivation level of the late Core Formation stage, and her capabilities were on par with the heads of major departments at Immortal Sect universities.

Even compared to Li Qingge, she was not inferior.

But the Taixu Sect, aiming to nurture Princess Liang Lu, specially assigned Mo Ningdan as Liang Lu’s counselor, to facilitate her legitimate guidance for Liang Lu.

This was a matter of great importance, and Mo Ningdan readily agreed without any hesitation.

“Good. With Liang Lu’s current abilities, she can advance to Foundation Establishment at any time.”

Li Qingge said, “Foundation Establishment is not urgent. Now is the time for her to lie low and wait for the right moment. Once the obstacles ahead of her are cleared, it won’t be too late for her to advance to Foundation Establishment.”

“Mm.”

Mo Ningdan nodded.

Putting aside the sect’s mission, Mo Ningdan herself actually held Liang Lu in high esteem.

Although Liang Lu was a princess, she had an unyielding determination that was rare to find.

This spirit was precisely what modern cultivators lacked the most.

On the other hand, if Liang Lu lacked talent or had a poor character, the Taixu Sect definitely would not have laid so much groundwork for her ascension to the throne.

It was precisely because Liang Lu herself had great potential—Foundation Establishment was no obstacle, Core Formation was a solid base, and even Nascent Soul was not out of the question—that Li Qingge and others were willing to risk the branch’s fortune for the long-term development of the sect.

“Mo, a moment please.” Li Qingge called out to Mo Ningdan after the meeting.

“Li.”

“Mo, there’s something I am not at liberty to discuss openly, so I must inform you privately. Please do not take offense.”

“Please speak.”

Li Qingge took a deep breath and said, “Mo, if possible, try to keep Liang Lu away from Jiang Cheng.”

Mo Ningdan looked puzzled: “Why? Jiang Cheng should be considered one of our own, right?”

“He’s certainly one of us, yes. But he is, to put it politely, quite popular among the female cultivators. I am afraid that if Liang Lu interacts too much with Jiang Cheng, it might jeopardize our plans.”

After hearing this, Mo Ningdan’s brows unwound, and she smiled.

She had thought Li Qingge had something serious to convey.

It turned out to be just a trivial matter of romance.

“Li, have you forgotten that during the new students’ assessment at Chaotic Heart Mountain, Liang Lu achieved the second place, second only to Lin Yao!”

Li Qingge said, “If it were Lin Yao interacting with Jiang Cheng, I indeed wouldn’t worry. But Liang Lu is still somewhat lacking in will and temperament.”

“Li is worrying too much. Even if Liang Lu is ordinary in temperament, she should be able to discern what is more important between a throne and a man, shouldn’t she?”

Li Qingge said sternly, “Mo, you must not underestimate Jiang Cheng. He is not a typical male cultivator. If you take him lightly, it could result in a severe loss.”

Seeing the president’s seriousness, Mo Ningdan was not in a position to make light of the matter anymore.

“Thank you for the advice. I will inform Liang Lu right away.”

“Mm. Thank you for the trouble.”

Inside Qingxuan University’s special activity room, a female cultivator sat cross-legged in cultivation, silently drawing in her breath.

The female cultivator’s cultivation level was at the ninth level of Qi training, and no amount of cultivation would bring about any further increase in her cultivation level.

Yet she continued to practice tirelessly, not for the sake of cultivation, but to remember the pathways of energy flow, seeking a faster, more proficient way of channeling her energy.

“Huff.”

Slowly exhaling a turbid breath, the female cultivator opened her eyes.

Even among the bevy of beauties at Qinghe Xuanran University, her appearance was outstanding. Apart from her peer Lin Yao, it was hard to find any rival.

“Liang Lu.”

Mo Ningdan appeared in the special activity room.

“Teacher.”

Seeing Mo Ningdan, Liang Lu promptly stood up and bowed respectfully.

Mo Ningdan treated her as her own, never holding back any cultivation techniques, making her a truly respectable and good teacher.

“Qingxuan University is on holiday now, so pack up your things and go home. I’ll inform you of the following cultivation content through a communication charm.”

“Alright, then I shall take my leave first.”

“Wait a moment.” Mo Ningdan called out to Liang Lu, “Jiang Cheng, do you know him?”

“Never heard of him.”

“Mm. If you encounter him, make sure to keep your distance.”

Liang Lu was momentarily puzzled, but she did not ask for the reason and simply agreed.

“Yes.”
