Chapter 24 - CHAPTER 24 — Dustwind Sect’s Chaotic Preparation for the Assembly

The morning sun rose over Dustwind Valley, but instead of warmth…

…it brought fear.

Because today,

the Dustwind Sect was preparing for a formal appearance

at the Grand Assembly.

And nothing terrifies a sect more than the idea of appearing dirty in public.

---

⭐ 1. Miyu Wakes Up — Sleepy, Cute, and Slightly More Mature

Inside her polished, overly disinfected room, Miyu slowly sat up.

Her hair was messy.

Her eyes were half-closed.

Her face was expressionless.

"...nn… too bright…"

She rubbed her cheeks softly.

An adult-like sigh slipped out.

"…So much work today."

Then she yawned like a child.

Auntie Bao appeared instantly with a warm towel.

"Good morning, my sweet baby! Did you sleep well? Did any impurities touch you in your dreams?"

Miyu blinked.

"…No. Just… dream dirt."

Auntie Bao gasped.

"DISGRACEFUL! Grandma will beat the dream dirt for you!"

Miyu patted her arm gently.

"…No need."

Her calm tone sounded older, but her sleepy face was still adorable.

A soft system chime echoed:

> [System Notice]

Past-life consciousness stabilizing.

Dual-state personality functioning normally.

Miyu mumbled,

"…So confusing…"

Auntie Bao hugged her.

"It's alright, darling.

Whether you're adult-smart or baby-sleepy,

Grandma loves you."

⭐ 2. Outside — The Disciples Are in Suffering

The courtyard was chaos.

Aurelius stalked the yard with cold precision.

"Your breathing rhythm is irregular."

"Your footwork is uneven."

"You blink too loudly."

Disciples cried while adjusting their posture.

Lin Ruyin gasped,

"Why is blinking wrong?!"

Aurelius answered without emotion.

"It creates airflow disturbances."

"WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!"

Meanwhile—

Auntie Bao's legendary cleaning weapon shifted from:

Mop → Divine Vacuum → Feather Duster → Giant Slipper → Medical Rod

She shouted:

"YOU CALL THIS CLEAN?!

THIS COURTYARD IS ONLY 98.2% SANITIZED!"

Disciples fell to the floor in despair.

"JUST LET US DIE, GRANDMA BAO!!!"

---

⭐ 3. Miyu Inspects the Sect

Miyu stepped outside, hair tied neatly, eyes half-lidded.

Everyone froze.

The sect disciples kneeled.

"Good morning, Ancestor Miyu!"

Miyu stared at them.

"…Your sleeves are uneven."

All disciples screamed collectively and fixed their sleeves at lightning speed.

Aurelius bowed.

"Master, we are preparing as instructed."

Miyu nodded sleepily.

"…Good.

The Assembly… requires perfection."

Auntie Bao puffed her chest proudly.

"And cleanliness, sweetie! Cleanliness is more important than breathing!"

Miyu blinked.

"…Yes."

Then she yawned.

---

⭐ 4. System Triggers a Sect-Wide Quest

A glowing panel appeared before Miyu:

Miyu rubbed her temple.

"…Tiring."

Auntie Bao patted her head.

"Don't worry, sweetie!

Grandma will clean EVERYTHING for you!"

Aurelius saluted.

"I shall discipline the disciples."

Lin Ruyin whispered,

"We're doomed…"

---

⭐ 5. Training Begins — Sterile Chaos

Miyu stood before the disciples.

Her posture calm.

Her expression sleepy.

Her aura elegant.

"Today…

I will teach you the first movement."

The disciples trembled.

"YES, ANCESTOR!!!"

Miyu performed a simple gesture.

Soft.

Graceful.

Barely noticeable.

⭐ Sterile Petal Flow — Beginner Gesture

A tiny white petal drifted into the air.

Then—

BOOOOOOM—!!!

The ground beneath them became perfectly polished.

Dirt evaporated.

Every disciple's robes whitened three shades instantly.

Lin Ruyin screamed,

"MY SKIN GOT BRIGHTER!!!"

Jin Haru cried,

"MY TRAUMA IS RETURNING!!!"

Miyu yawned again.

"…Good.

Repeat it ten thousand times."

"TEN THOUSAND?!?!?!"

Auntie Bao slammed her mop on the ground.

"SILENCE! If my sweet Miyu says ten thousand, you do TEN THOUSAND!"

The disciples sobbed.

---

⭐ 6. Reality Beyond the Sect

⭐ Immortal Realm

Immortal elders watched through mirrors and wept.

"She's teaching mortals divine arts…"

"The world is ending…"

"I can't watch this… but I must…"

---

⭐ Demon Realm

Demons screamed.

"NO! NOT THE PETAL THING AGAIN—!!!"

"My skin is peeling from purity!!!"

"STOP HER TRAINING!!!"

---

⭐ Abyss Demon Lord

The sealed Primordial Lord groaned.

"SHE'S TRAINING OTHERS?!

NOOOO—!!!

STOP SPREADING CLEANLINESS—!!!"

---

⭐ 7. End-of-Day Scene — Miyu's Personality Stabilizes More

At sunset, Miyu sat under a tree, exhausted.

Auntie Bao brought warm tea.

"Here, darling. You did so well today."

Miyu sipped it slowly.

"…Grandma Bao.

I feel… more like myself today."

A chime echoed:

> [Personality Stabilization: 55% Completed]

Miyu closed her eyes.

"…I'm still tired though."

Auntie Bao smiled.

"That means you're healing."

Aurelius approached and knelt.

"Master.

The sect is nearly ready.

We only need to welcome the new attendant."

Miyu nodded.

"…Tomorrow, then."

Auntie Bao clapped her hands excitedly.

"Oooh! Another clean freak is coming!"

Every disciple trembled.

"T-There are MORE of them…?!"

---

Dustwind Sect was cleaner, stronger, and more terrified than ever.

The Assembly…

was approaching.

And somewhere in the sky,

a new attendant's soul was waiting to descend.
