Mi Lan said calmly, "We are merely using Dongshan Prefecture as a pilot project; the strength of these sects remains limited."
Liu Zhongjie asked with a puzzled expression, "What would even be considered a legal sect?"
"All disciple rosters must be fully registered and cataloged, alongside a commitment to obey the law and pay taxes. If anyone within a sect commits a crime, the sect must not harbor them. Finally, upon signing an official contract, they will be issued a legal sect plaque. Only then will they be recognized as a legal sect and permitted to establish themselves and recruit disciples within our Dongshan Prefecture."
