How can a declining sect rise again? It can't recruit disciples in large numbers, has no source of income, and barely has any students. That's a tough one.
But no matter. Once I've absorbed the legacies left behind by the disciples, elders, and sect leaders of generations past, I'll be invincible. Then won't the sect be mine to command?
I'm going to break the rules. I want the sect's disciples spread across the whole world.
