Chapter 226
"You have a heart."
Jiang Yan's eyes moved, and the dense pile of things disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this, Jean breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately added:
"Sect Master, when Lady Alice and the others came before, we should have come to visit earlier."
"But the dragon disaster in Mondstadt was serious, and we couldn't get away at that time."
"Really sorry."
"This time Lisa went back, solved the dragon disaster, and gave us some pills to treat our injuries. Shushan's help to Mondstadt was too great."
"At the same time, we also saw the true means of cultivators. After hurriedly finishing Mondstadt's affairs these past few days, we asked Lisa to bring us to pay respects and seek immortality."
"Please give us a chance, Sect Master."
Diluc and the others also looked at Jiang Yan with anticipation.
The latter chuckled, looked at Lisa, and joked:
"It seems that your Mondstadt is indeed very busy, so busy that you didn't receive any news."
"You too, I'm afraid you haven't checked your disciple token much these past few days, right?"
Lisa was stunned for a moment and looked at Jiang Yan with some confusion.
The latter said softly:
"I decided some time ago that one month from now, Shushan will open its mountain gates, with Liyue responsible for recruiting one thousand disciples."
"Open the mountain gates?!"
Lisa was a bit surprised, then slightly annoyed:
"Sorry Sect Master, I really haven't checked my disciple token these past few days."
"It doesn't matter."
Jiang Yan shook his head.
"The dragon disaster in Mondstadt has just been settled, and everything needs to be reorganized. It's normal for you to be busy."
Diluc pursed his lips, somewhat unwilling.
They had clearly entered Shushan, but now they were already preparing to open the mountain gates.
Doesn't that mean they had missed the best time?
Could it be that they had to wait another month?
But in one month, how much would they be left behind by Lisa and the others?
Immortality cultivation is a race against time. Now that they were left behind, Diluc didn't think he could catch up from behind.
He didn't think he could beat Lisa's talent.
Joining a month later, doesn't that mean being at the same starting line as one thousand people?
"Since you didn't receive the news, I'll tell you again."
Jiang Yan said softly:
"One month from now, Shushan will open its mountain gates to recruit one thousand disciples. This month, Shushan disciples should also try not to leave Shushan."
"I will increase the number of preaching sessions, striving to improve your strength further, so that you first batch of disciples can hold up the facade."
Hearing this, Lisa was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed:
"Many thanks, Sect Master! Disciple will keep it in mind! In the coming time, I will definitely seize the time to cultivate."
Jiang Yan nodded slightly. Although it was impossible for Lisa to break through to the late stage of Refining Essence into Qi in a month.
But in any case, it could make her strength increasingly solid.
In the middle stage of Refining Essence into Qi, she could also be considered a leader.
"Besides that, Shushan has evolved into a world, with abundant spiritual energy, and demonic beasts and fierce beasts are flourishing. Many medicinal herbs have also appeared in various places."
"And the mining and exploration of three spiritual mines, etc., these tasks have also been placed in the Merit Hall."

"In your spare time, you can also take more tasks to accumulate contribution points."
"The four side gates of Shushan, now Dazhu Peak and Fenghui Peak have already shown some improvement."
"You missed these few days, Shushan has undergone many changes, go back to Dazhu Peak and ask Lishui later."
Lisa nodded thoughtfully.
I guess Lishui has finally refined the pills.
Even Liuyun and the others have refined magic tools.
Lisa kept it in mind and added:
"Sect Master, do Jean and the others need to wait until after a month to officially pay respects?"
At this, Jean and the others were a bit nervous.
Although they were confident they could pass even with countless people competing, waiting a month to cultivate immortality would really leave them behind too much.
Jiang Yan looked around at everyone, true energy flowing in his eyes, purple energy permeating.
After a moment, Jiang Yan said softly:
"There is no need to be so harsh. Although Shushan uses the mountain opening ceremony as the main source of disciples."
"But on weekdays, if we find good seedlings with good talent and firm will, we can also have some privileges."
"Excellent disciples are always fought over by major sects. If we have to rigidly pursue rules, it doesn't conform to the development of an immortality cultivation sect."
"Jean and the others have excellent talent, plus your recommendation, I can appropriately give you some convenience."
"However, there must still be some rules."
Jiang Yan looked at Lisa with a smile.
"You also know that your junior brother Baizhu stepped through the nine-level Heart-Questioning Array to join Shushan after overcoming all difficulties."
"If I accept you all directly, although Baizhu will support my decision, he will inevitably have some complaints about you in his heart."
"So, there must be an assessment. Can you accept it?"
Hearing this, Jean was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly:
"I am willing! To be able to join Shushan to cultivate immortality, just some assessments, it couldn't be more appropriate."
"Good."
Jiang Yan nodded slightly and pondered:
"The disciple requirement for the mountain opening ceremony one month from now is to pass the first level of the Heart-Questioning Array to be an outer sect disciple."
"Passing the third level of the Heart-Questioning Array makes one an inner sect disciple."
"You can assess based on this standard. Lisa also knows the location of the Heart-Questioning Array. I will notify Head Seat Zhongli to supervise it later."
"It can also be considered as letting him adapt to the mountain opening ceremony one month later in advance."
"If you are ready, you can go at any time."
Lisa nodded gratefully.
"Many thanks, Sect Master."
Jiang Yan shook his head, scanned everyone again, and then focused his gaze on Lumine, staying for a long time.
Lumine was a bit unnatural. That gaze seemed to see through her from head to toe, inside and out.
All her secrets had no meaning in front of Jiang Yan.
This feeling made Lumine a bit uneasy.
She couldn't help but sigh that immortality cultivation masters were truly terrifying.
But thinking that cultivators in novels have mind-reading, she hurriedly cleared her thoughts.
Jiang Yan looked at the uneasiness on Lumine's face and chuckled:
"For this assessment, Jean, Diluc, Kaeya, and Barbara can participate."
Hearing this, Lumine was stunned for a moment and lowered her head sadly, and Paimon also hid behind Lumine, feeling aggrieved.
Lisa was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, looked at Jiang Yan with some surprise.
"Sect Master, Lumine and Paimon..."
Jiang Yan nodded slightly and smiled:
"Talented, peerless geniuses rare in ten thousand years. Today, two came at once. Lisa, you really gave me a surprise."
"Teyvat is truly full of geniuses."
"Even the Glazed Sword Heart and the Star Body have appeared."
