Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 442: The Debt of Human Sentiment

In regions like Guangdong and Hong Kong, where family lineage and clan structures are deeply entrenched, respecting one’s elders is a highly regarded value.

For the young people within the Hong Kong Circle, figures who had established their own empires such as Rich Man Lee and Li Zhaoji were held in the highest esteem, almost god-like in presence.

He Xin, who had been brought up with traditional family values, held considerable respect for these elders who, of her father’s generation, had created their own legendary wealth.

Therefore, when Rich Man Lee and Li Zhaoji, both centenarians, humbled themselves to insist on He Xin accepting their granddaughters as disciples, He Xin truly didn’t know how to refuse.

To be honest, the aptitudes of these two granddaughters were not particularly remarkable.

They were just ordinary Spirit Roots.

Without the support of resources, if they had been born into ordinary families, they probably would have never set foot on the path of cultivation in their lives.

Because the resources for cultivation are expensive!

Although He Xin was now one of the stewards of the Cold Moon Sect, she was caught off guard by the deep bowing of the two elders.

Rich Man Lee’s granddaughter was named Li Sisi, and Li Zhaoji’s granddaughter was named Li Tong.

Both were around sixteen or seventeen years old.

Possibly fearing He Xin’s refusal, the two elders directly scolded their granddaughters to kneel before He Xin, without saying another word.

He Xin attempted to help the two girls up, but the elders hastily said, "Xinxin, if you don’t accept them as disciples, they shall not stand up."

Li Zhaoji: "Xin, you are also of an aunt’s generation to them. Taking them on as disciples and being called Master by them does not conflict."

Li Sisi and Li Tong were well aware that their Spirit Roots and talents were unlikely to make any significant achievements on the path of cultivation.

They also knew that their family could not make any breakthroughs in the realm of cultivation.

Their only hope was that after entering the Cold Moon Sect, they could become one of the few lifelines for their families.

Thus, they knelt willingly, and without further delay, they kowtowed to He Xin: "Master above, please accept us as your disciples! We can endure hardships and will definitely not hold you back in the sect. We will work diligently and hard."

The other members of the He family in the living room understood the intentions behind the actions of the two elders.

The Cold Moon Sect was the first sect in the world and was also open to female cultivators globally.

Given their average Qi Cultivation Stage strength as Outer Disciples and the level of the sect’s secret techniques, it was not an exaggeration to say it was currently the world’s number one sect.

Aside from the Sect Leader, who was a Great Expert, his wife was the top combatant.

The Elders, too, were unmatched in their league.

With these accolades, it was not unreasonable for the daughters of top-tier families to aspire to join them.

If He Xin was willing, she could tell those top families and royal families that she would take their princesses as disciples, and they would undoubtedly bring their daughters or princesses directly to He Xin, then pour tea and kowtow in deference.

In this regard, the two elderly Lis were indeed aiming high.

This was also why the two elders came in person, lowering their stature to seek favor.

Watching the two people kneeling on the ground, refusing to raise their heads from the floor, He Xin struggled for a long time.

Finally, she sighed: "Prepare the tea."

Rich Man Lee and Li Zhaoji were immediately overjoyed.

Behind them, the parents of Li Sisi and Li Tong hurriedly went to the living room to fetch cups and brew tea, elated.

Their speed was undeniably quick, as if fearing even a few seconds’ delay might cause He Xin to change her mind.

While some prepared tea, others quickly pushed the sofa over, indicating for He Xin to sit down.

Once He Xin took her seat on the sofa, her entire demeanor shifted, transforming into that of one of the stewards of the Cold Moon Sect, an expert at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Joy flickered across the faces of Li Sisi and Li Tong as they energetically took the tea their parents handed to them.

Then, still kneeling, they took a few steps forward to He Xin and said with a determined tone, "Master, please drink the tea."

He Xin successively took the tea cups from both and sipped from them, then produced two tokens from her Storage Ring and handed them to the two.

"From today on, you two are my He Xin’s direct disciples and also the first generation of Inner Sect Disciples of the Cold Moon Sect. Remember, the sect only provides you with better cultivation resources; do not misuse the sect’s power to bully others. Once you’ve joined the sect, your life and death are with the sect. All of the sect’s secret techniques must not be disclosed. If I learn that you do not abide by the sect’s rules, there will be no need for the enforcement hall to act—I will personally expel you, and even your families must not interfere!"

Li Sisi and Li Tong trembled, taking the command token with the utmost respect and then kowtowed, "Yes, Master!"

The two members of the Li family on site clapped their hands cheerfully to congratulate them.

Li Zhaoji and Rich Man Lee both sighed in relief.

After the disciple initiation ceremony, He Xin said to everyone, "Uncles, please go about your business; I will take Sisi and Little Tong away now."

He Xin now had her own place to live; this time she had merely popped by home for a visit.

Rich Man Lee and the others nodded their heads.

They also reminded their granddaughter, "Serve your master well, and don’t disgrace our family."

Li Sisi nodded vigorously, fully aware that gaining entry into the Cold Moon Sect was thanks to her family’s greatest connections, so she cherished this opportunity deeply.

Subsequently, He Xin summoned a magical treasure flying sword from her storage ring.

She gracefully stepped onto it and signaled Li Sisi and Li Tong to join her.

This was the first time Li Sisi and Li Tong saw a Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

It was also their first time seeing a magical treasure flying sword!

And their first attempt at standing on a flying sword made them somewhat unsteady, but luckily He Xin caught their wrists, one on each side.

She then maneuvered the flying sword and soared into the sky, with all those below looking on in awe.

To countless mortals, this scene was the object of their dreams.

Even Rich Man Lee and Li Zhaoji watched with fiery longing in their eyes as the sword’s silhouette faded away, unable to come back to their senses for a long time.

They did not know how much longer it would take to reach Foundation Establishment and then explore the vast cosmos.

In the sky, Li Sisi and Li Tong looked down as the flying sword swept over Ao Hai and rose above Shencheng City. Gazing at the densely packed towering skyscrapers of the entire city, they instinctively gaped in amazement, feeling as if they were in a fantasy.

At that moment, they truly envied the Immortals.

They could roam freely among the clouds.

That sense of freedom and contentment.

He Xin steered the flying sword to land at the security post of Gu Mansion Garden.

After facial recognition at the security checkpoint, she walked toward a villa and reminded the two following behind her, "You might meet Yue Xuan, who is in charge of the sect’s personnel management. Make sure to address her as ’Elder Teacher.’ Currently, everyone in charge in the sect is older than I am, so you should call them ’Elder Teacher’ when you meet them."

"Yes!" Li Sisi and Li Tong quickly responded.

New disciples must register at personnel; otherwise, it would be against the rules and would not be recognized.

Yue Xuan, who had experience managing the human resources department at the Meiyue Group, was also responsible for the sect’s personnel file registration and management.

Currently pregnant, Yue Xuan greeted He Xin with a smile, "I haven’t had the chance to congratulate you, He Xin, on reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage yet."

She had been on maternity leave and thus hadn’t seen He Xin for a long while.

He Xin smiled lightly, "I almost held back the sect, but luckily I managed to make the breakthrough."

Li Sisi and Li Tong hastily bowed respectfully, "Sisi (Little Tong) pays respects to Elder Yue Xuan Teacher."

Yue Xuan nodded. One glance was all it took to discern the aptitude of these two, but recruitment was left to personal preference, and the sect wouldn’t interfere. One only needed to manage their own disciples.

She also understood that everyone has social debts that are hard to ignore and, feeling somewhat sympathetic to He Xin, she laughed and took out two bags of spirit stones as a meeting gift for the younger generation.

Each bag probably contained about 10 spirit stones.

"Take these," she said, "this is a gift from your Elder Teacher."

"Thank you, Elder Yue Xuan Teacher!"

Li Sisi and Li Tong were overjoyed.

Indeed, it was a major sect’s style—so generous with the unbuyable spirit stones on the market, gifting 10 stones at hand.
