"Everything is ready! If you don't spread it, wouldn't that be a waste?" Yun Jin's expression immediately turned cold. "All the hard work Vice Hall Master Zhai Ge put in, you absolutely must not squander it!" She directly took out the Tai'a Sword and placed it on the nearby table, arching an eyebrow like a serious enforcer.
The sect disciples assigned to the task shivered uncontrollably.
They really wanted to inform Zhai Ge immediately, but… all their communication tools had been confiscated.
They could do nothing.
"If you behave like this, I will not be pleased!" Yun Jin raised her brow. "Although I am the Hall Master now, Zhai Ge is still the Vice Hall Master. He hasn't been removed from his position yet! And you refuse to follow his instructions? This kind of sucking up and stepping on others, the Hall Master absolutely will not allow!"
Yun Jin spoke with righteous authority.
The sect disciples: "..."
Is that really so???
Yun Jin softened her tone, though still pointed: "I know you are not intentionally disobeying Vice Hall Master Zhai Ge. You just think his titles are not exciting enough to catch attention, so you want to improve them for him, isn't that right?"
The sect disciples: "???"
"Okay, let me help you," Yun Jin said with a smile. "This one, change the title to: 'Vice Hall Master Zhai Ge, a man in a hurry.'"
Silence filled the hall.
Yun Jin continued her guidance: "Here, change it to: 'Shocking! Hall Master Yun went to these lengths to gain power!'"
Still silence.
She suggested a few more:
"'Unmissable news! Men will be stunned, women will cry!'"
"'If you don't read this, you're no human!'"
"'Vice Hall Master Zhai Ge and his 108 followers!'"
Yun Jin sipped her tea: "Do you understand now? Who has patience for official-sounding words? If you write, make it exciting! Using my titles, create new big-character posters and post them everywhere. Make sure the news spreads across the land before Vice Hall Master Zhai Ge returns. He must have the proper reputation! Understand?"
The new titles… were indeed stimulating.
But… maybe a bit too much!
"As you command, Hall Master," some loose cultivators replied, grinning.
They had been bullied by Zhai Ge for years. Now, under a firm Hall Master like Yun Jin, they certainly wanted to vent a little.
"You, don't slack off either. Mingxin Hall does not keep idlers. If you misbehave…" Yun Jin smiled slightly and stomped her foot.
A small crack appeared in the ground. The sect disciples fell silent.
They…
They couldn't act fast enough?
But heavens, they were being forced by Yun Jin!
They were loyal to Vice Hall Master Zhai Ge, but circumstances overruled people!
Mingxin Hall soon became busy.
Yun Jin comfortably arranged the tea table and sipped tea while instructing everyone on how to write truly shocking and attention-grabbing posters.
Kong Huai twitched at the corner of his mouth. He could not imagine that the person now guiding everyone in writing big-character posters was the same one who had once said with a smile, "Clear, cleanse the tassel; turbid, cleanse the feet. Reap what you sow."
"Kong Huai, what are you dazing at! Write properly!" Yun Jin slammed her tea cup down.
Kong Huai's face fell as he began the difficult task. He regretted it deeply. He should never have volunteered his name. Now, whenever Yun Jin didn't know whom to call, she would call out to him several times.
To make things worse, others looked at him with envy.
"Senior Brother Kong, the Hall Master really values you. You're lucky," someone said sourly.
Kong Huai gritted his teeth. This kind of luck—would you want it?
Under Yun Jin's overwhelming presence, a dozen new versions of the big-character posters were created.
Mingxin Hall had special tools to spread messages. Zhai Ge had prepared hundreds of circular transmission devices for the campaign.
These devices would fly at incredible speed to nearby cities, spreading the posters immediately. After sending the devices, Yun Jin called the disciple responsible for recording her heroic image.
The disciple was diligent and used flying devices to capture her from every angle, perfectly showcasing Hall Master Yun Jin's posture.
Yun Jin was very satisfied.
She glanced at the disciple: "What is your name again?"
The disciple straightened: "Your servant, Shi Yu."
"Good. From now on, during battles, you will follow me and handle recording," Yun Jin said.
Shi Yu's face lit up. He quickly introduced a young woman: "Hall Master, this is my sister, Shi Shi. I do the filming, and she handles the post-processing."
Yun Jin was even more satisfied. Her display of power had been perfectly recorded from all angles. For her, filming and editing were very important.
Excellent.
This brother and sister were talent.
She would find a way to recruit them into Wushuang Sect for promotion work.
"You will follow me too," Yun Jin waved her hand.
Shi Shi's face lit up with joy.
Yun Jin rewarded the siblings immediately.
Then she gave rewards to those who had followed her on missions.
Yun Jin said to the sect disciples: "As for mission rewards, you do not get any. The Hall Master has said that to make up for your mistakes, you will work for free for the next ten years. But these rewards come from my personal pocket. You may take them."
Yun Jin's word was final.
The sect disciples hesitated, then accepted the rewards.
Yun Jin stored the image stones and sipped tea in comfort.
She sent a message to check on Hong Ye's situation.
Hong Ye had fewer missions, but the demons were clever. The sect disciples' lack of cooperation slowed progress.
These evildoers were good at hiding. Without the system's real-time tracking, Yun Jin could not have been so efficient. As for the sect disciples… Yun Jin could enforce obedience, which Hong Ye could not.
This was unavoidable.
Yun Jin could handle the consequences; Hong Ye could not.
She located Hong Ye with the system, marking her presence.
Then Yun Jin stood.
She casually set up a barrier in Mingxin Hall.
This barrier had fire-element protection. Unless someone had insight into the Primordial Flame or was far stronger than her, it could not be broken. Any attack on the barrier would be immediately detected.
Yun Jin smiled at the disciples: "The Hall Master has matters to attend to. You stay here until Vice Hall Master Zhai Ge returns. This barrier is no entry, no exit. You'd better stay put, or you might die if you go out."
Her tone was light.
The disciples shivered.
What do you mean… might die!
Why say it so casually?
They stared at the crimson barrier and did not dare move.
Yun Jin then soared into the sky.
Acting alone, she could move faster and likely handle the missions assigned to Hong Ye. The remaining demons for Hong Ye's missions were only early Mahayana. Once located by the system, killing them would be effortless.
