Chapter 1602

Wu Ming was young and lacked experience.

Having stayed in the temporary palace since childhood, the people around him were a group of frustrated eunuchs and palace maids, either complaining about heaven and others or being depressed. The final outcome for all of them was to die silently in the temporary palace.

He had keen intuition and couldn't read facial expressions, but relying on his intuition, he could judge whether the other was real or fake, sincere or hypocritical.

Relying on this ability, he could also trade blows with those frustrated eunuchs and palace maids in matters of scheming. But it was also because of this intuition that he didn't have a single true friend around him; everyone disliked him, disliking that he loved to tell the truth, disliking that he exposed their inner dark sides, exposed the dark sides they wanted to hide.

Growing up to this age, besides his Master, this was the first time he had encountered someone who treated him sincerely, even wanting to hire him as a guest elder of a sect. At that moment, his cheeks were flushed with excitement.

So excited he was incoherent.

"Really? What do you see in me?"

"I cherish talent!" Chen Guanlou smiled, kind, sincere, and quite deceptive. Inside, he was a downright treacherous villain, seducing a simple, inexperienced young man to work for him.

Too evil!

"But, besides the martial path, I don't know anything."

"Brother Wu, you must remember, you are a genius. What I value is your talent on the martial path! I sincerely invite you to be a guest elder of the Profound Heaven Sect, or an elder, whichever position you like, I will arrange it for you. There is also a monthly salary, and pills supplied without limit. How about it?"

"I don't really take pills."

"That's even better! I don't really take pills either. A salary of five hundred taels a month, are you satisfied?"

"Too much."

"Not much, not much."

"May I ask, how many people are in the Profound Heaven Sect?" Wu Ming was very curious, "How come I've never heard of this sect."

Chen Guanlou's expression didn't change, always smiling, "There are many people in the Profound Heaven Sect. You haven't heard of it because our sect follows a mysterious path and never participates in Jianghu disputes."

Only participates in the struggle for the country.

"First disciple" Zhang Kang, a rebel! Still active on the path of no return of rebellion to this day.

Wu Ming expressed understanding; he had also heard that some sects were extremely mysterious, focused solely on practicing the martial path, and never acted in the Jianghu.

"May I ask where the sect is?"

Chen Guanlou:...

There was no sect. The Profound Heaven Sect remained entirely verbal.

But this question couldn't stop him.

He smiled and said, "As the sect leader, wherever I am, the sect is."

Wu Ming let out an exclamation.

"Greetings, Sect Leader!" Wu Ming immediately cupped his hands in salute.

Chen Guanlou asked him, "Do you agree to join the Profound Heaven Sect?"

Wu Ming nodded, his face filled with excitement; at this moment, he had a kind of divine longing for the Profound Heaven Sect!

"I am honored by the Sect Leader's regard, and I am willing to contribute to the sect."

Chen Guanlou was very satisfied.

He patted the other's shoulder, what a good workhorse!

"From now on, you are an elder of the Profound Heaven Sect. Your responsibility is to focus on practicing the martial path, record your cultivation insights, and create techniques for the sect. The revitalization of the sect cannot be separated from your contribution and effort!"

"I will certainly not let down the Sect Leader's trust! I will definitely work hard to revitalize the sect."

Good!

Too good!

A top-quality workhorse!

He must thank Eunuch Wang Hai for sending him such excellent raw material.

"Let's go, return to the capital. After dawn, I will take you to meet the Great Elder of the sect. The Great Elder doesn't know the martial path, but his medical skills are superb. In addition, I want to give you a welcome gift; don't refuse."

Chen Guanlou considered that Wu Ming was a eunuch, so giving him a knife or sword wasn't appropriate. The palace didn't allow them to carry sharp weapons.

Therefore, the welcome gift he sent was two bottles of pills, plus a stack of silver notes.

He took the person to a private residence in the city, telling the other that this was the Profound Heaven Sect's foothold in the capital, and he could come over at any time. He also instructed Steward Bao to take good care of him.

"Brother Wu is my person; no matter when he comes, serve him as you serve me. Also, he doesn't get close to women, so don't be clever and arrange some messy women to serve him. When he is practicing, he must not be disturbed."

Old Bao nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Chen Guanlou also instructed, "I'll increase your monthly expense quota by one hundred taels, all to be used on Brother Wu. Whatever Brother Wu wants, as long as it can be provided, satisfy him as much as possible. If there are difficulties, come find me."

Old Bao nodded, noting them down one by one.

When dawn arrived, after breakfast, Chen Guanlou took Wu Ming to the Heavenly Prison and introduced him to Medical Official Mu.

"Wu Ming, the newly promoted elder of the Profound Heaven Sect. Elder Wu, the person in front of you is Medical Official Mu, the Great Elder of the Profound Heaven Sect, whose medical skills are superb."

Medical Official Mu was confused inside, but very steady on the surface.

He didn't know what trick Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen was playing, he only knew he had to cooperate.

He stroked his beard, looking like a senior expert, smiling at Wu Ming, "Elder Wu, nice to meet you! Welcome to the Heavenly Prison Sect!"

"Elder Mu, nice to meet you!" Wu Ming was trembling with excitement; he was also a person with an organization, a backer, and a background!

"You have to go back to the palace for duty, so I won't keep you. Regarding the matter of leaving the Imperial Palace, don't worry, I will find a way for you. For now, everything remains the same!"

"Everything is at the Sect Leader's command!"

Wu Ming couldn't hide his excitement, seeing that time was running out, he left reluctantly.

After the person left, Medical Official Mu immediately became excited, asking: "My lord, what trick are you playing? What Profound Heaven Sect, when did I become a sect elder? This... that Elder Wu, if I'm not mistaken, he's a eunuch. He looks so handsome, so young, why does he look a bit silly?"

Such a clumsy lie, and yet he believed it deeply.

For a moment, he admired Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen's ability to fool people even more.

"What trick, don't talk nonsense. The Profound Heaven Sect matter, haven't I mentioned it before."

"But, it was all a joke!" Medical Official Mu remembered very clearly, it was clearly a joke, how did it become real. Could it be that Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen really intended to establish a sect?

What about disciples?

Where are the disciples?

Not a single disciple, but two more elders.

And where is the sect established? Is there a prime location occupied, formally opening a sect?

Good fellow!

It turns out to be playing house!

Medical Official Mu was torn between laughter and tears for a moment.

"It's not a joke now! Old Mu, I officially announce that you are the Great Elder of the first Elder Council of the Profound Heaven Sect. Are you willing?"

Medical Official Mu looked surprised, "My lord, are you serious?"

"Don't you think it's very interesting? Pulling over the talents I value, I thought about it, there must be a name, don't you think so. The Profound Heaven Sect is very good, regardless of background, regardless of status, all relying on talent. As long as there is talent, and I, the Sect Leader, approve, one can join the Profound Heaven Sect, and from then on help each other. How about it?"

Medical Official Mu was speechless, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"My lord, do you really think so?"

"Old Mu, after you pass away in a hundred years, who will protect the Mu family. Relying on me alone won't work! In the future, I might be away from the capital for a long time. But the Profound Heaven Sect will always be there. Think about it, once the Mu family encounters danger, what if they can't find me? Now that there is the Profound Heaven Sect, the Profound Heaven Sect is full of talents, and they will definitely share your worries!"
