Chapter 130

"You will have plenty of time to see Klee."

Upon hearing this, Alice was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

Jiang Yan looked at Zhongli.

"Peak Master Zhongli is currently in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall; you can discuss matters with him."

"So, Zhongli is my direct superior!"

Alice smiled and glanced at Zhongli. Jiang Yan reminded her:

"Peak Master Zhongli is in charge of Dragon Head Peak. Within Shushan, you should address him as Peak Master."

Alice followed the custom, nodded, and did not refuse.

"As for you, Venti..."

Jiang Yan pondered for a moment and said softly:

"Would you be willing to serve as a Peak Master?"

Hearing this, Venti scratched his cheek, unable to make up his mind for a moment.

He did not want to interfere much with his duties as the Anemo Archon, because the Anemo Archon symbolizes freedom.

And in a cultivation sect, no matter how free and unrestrained cultivators are, they must strictly abide by the sect rules.

Venti felt he might not be able to be a good Peak Master.

But this was a cultivation sect destined to influence all of Teyvat and even go beyond Teyvat in the future.

It was worth considering carefully.

After some thought, Venti asked curiously:

"Sect Master, what does a Peak Master need to do?"

Jiang Yan smiled and turned to look at Zhongli.

"Peak Master Zhongli, you should be very clear about this. Tell Venti about it."

Zhongli nodded slightly.

"Yes, Sect Master."

"A Peak Master is the manager of one of the seven branches. The Dragon Head Peak Master is in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall, monitoring every word and deed of the disciples."

"The Bamboo Peak Master is in charge of the Alchemy Pavilion, needing to lead Bamboo Peak disciples to provide cultivation pills and resources for the sect."

"The Wind Return Peak Master is in charge of the Artifact Refining Pavilion, similar to the Bamboo Peak Master."

"Most of the other Peak Masters, except for Little Bamboo Peak, have duties related to the side branches of the seven peaks."

"The Little Bamboo Peak Master is passed down through the generations of the Qinghui lineage's Su Yin Body; you don't need to consider that."

Venti nodded thoughtfully.

Simply put, among the seven peaks of Shushan, the most special is Tongtian Peak, controlled by the Sect Master, which is the highest power institution and symbol of status in Shushan.

Dragon Head Peak monitors all disciples in Shushan and is also responsible for Shushan's external defense and main combat.

Dragon Head Peak's duties are the heaviest; many important institutions are monitored and controlled by the Dragon Head Peak Law Enforcement Hall, reporting to the Sect Master.

Little Bamboo Peak is the lineage of Qinghui's spells and talismans, which can only be inherited by those with the Su Yin Body.

There is no need to think about this either.

The remaining four peaks are in charge of the four major side branches of Shushan.

Thinking this through, Venti blinked and said:

"Which peak does the Sect Master think I am more suitable for as Peak Master?"

Jiang Yan smiled and glanced at Zhongli.

"It seems Venti is more willing to accept this responsibility than you. Peak Master Zhongli, you pushed back for a long time back then."

Zhongli smiled helplessly.

"Dragon Head Peak's responsibilities are great; I could not help but consider it carefully."

Jiang Yan smiled, said nothing, turned to look at Venti, and after a flash of purple light in his eyes, said with a smile:

"Why don't you join Chaoyang Peak and act as the manager of Shushan's formation side branch?"

Formations?

Venti remembered seeing Jiang Yan casually cast a great formation on the martial arts field just now, with the heavens and earth covered by the formation.

Venti was truly ignited with interest by this powerful and free-willed display.

Thinking of this, Venti no longer hesitated and said with rare seriousness:

"I will strictly follow the Sect Master's decree!"

Jiang Yan flicked his hand, and a token entered Venti's hand.

After arranging for the three of them, only the last and most important little Klee remained.

Looking at Klee, who was obediently following Alice, her soft, cute big eyes were curiously staring at him.

Even with Jiang Yan's mindset, he couldn't help but feel a bit more affection.

"Klee, come here."

Jiang Yan beckoned, signaling Klee to come before him.

Alice gently patted Klee's head, and Klee walked sensibly to Jiang Yan.

Looking at Klee from a close distance, Jiang Yan finally understood the power of the world's number one cute thing.

This little one was simply the most beloved treasure of the Creator.

"Big brother, are you going to teach my mommy how to make bombs!"

Hearing this, Alice felt a bit embarrassed.

Just as she was about to say something, Jiang Yan said with a smile:

"Then, Klee, do you want to learn?"

Klee nodded her little head repeatedly.

"I want to learn! Klee likes bombs! Klee likes mommy! Klee wants to be with mommy forever!"

"Big brother is a good person for helping mommy have some rest time!"

As she spoke, Klee happily took out a Jumpty Dumpty bomb and handed it to Jiang Yan.

"Sect Master..."

Zhongli looked at Klee with some worry. This...

Giving a bomb to the Sect Master—if Xiao were to see this, he would definitely blow a fuse.

"It's fine."

Jiang Yan waved his hand and took the bomb.

Even if this thing were strengthened a thousand times, it would be useless against him; furthermore, Klee just wanted to give him a gift of gratitude.

"Big brother, Klee also wants to learn from you! If Klee becomes stronger, she can help mommy solve many, many problems, and mommy can stay with Klee forever."

Klee's eyes sparkled with little stars as she looked at Jiang Yan expectantly.

Jiang Yan looked up at Alice and said softly:

"Elder Alice, you and Klee are truly a deep mother-daughter pair..."

Alice also looked at Klee with some pride.

Although she spent very little time with her, no one could surpass her love for Klee.

"In that case..."

Jiang Yan straightened his expression and stared at Klee.

"Klee, would you be willing to take me as your master, become the Sect Master's direct disciple, and practice the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Art?"

At this, Zhongli and the others couldn't sit still.

Jiang Yan...

The Shushan Sect Master...

Was actually going to take a disciple personally!

World-Purifying Glazed Bottle? Wasn't that Guanyin Bodhisattva's?

As Jiang Yan's voice fell, there wasn't even the sound of breathing in the great hall.

Everyone stared intently at Klee; Alice wished she could agree on Klee's behalf.

Having read many cultivation novels, she knew exactly what the Sect Master's direct disciple meant.
