Chapter 309: Self-Recommendation

~10 min read 1,882 words

After Hua Changxi had Yu Fu publish the 'Qihuang Body Refinement Art', she didn't ask about anything else, but returned to the bamboo house, preparing to deal with the corpses of the three Infant-Transformation demon beasts.

After taking the corpses of the three demon beasts out of the Sumeru Mustard Seed, Hua Changxi, who was hesitating about where to start, suddenly thought of the No. 4 Qihuang Pavilion and the No. 5 Qihuang Pavilion.

The No. 4 Qihuang Pavilion teaches the meridians and composition of humans, animals, and plants, involving anatomy, acupuncture, anesthesia, massage, etc.

The No. 5 Qihuang Pavilion teaches the decomposition, extraction, fusion, etc., of animals, plants, and minerals.

It was the best place to deal with the corpses of these three demon beasts. By the way, she could take some apprentices over to see how to dissect demon beast corpses and how to extract demon beast blood.

"The Pavilion Master of the No. 4 Qihuang Pavilion is Zhang Tianshi, from the Grand Void Palace; the Pavilion Master of the No. 5 Qihuang Pavilion is the third young master of the Dong'an Prince's Mansion..."

She hadn't had any conflicts with these two people. If she paid a certain price, they should let her borrow the Qihuang Pavilion, right?

Thinking this, Hua Changxi directly sent a message to Yu Fu, asking him to come to the bamboo house to find her.

Looking at the flying message talisman, Hua Changxi's expression moved, thinking of the sound transmission technique she had heard on the Star Gazing Tower before.

If she knew the sound transmission technique, she would only need one transmission to see anyone on Dan Yuan Peak, which would be both convenient and fast.

She had been exposed to too little immortal cultivation knowledge; she didn't even know techniques like sound transmission that weren't of a very high grade.

Knowledge is also a part of strength. Her lack of knowledge sometimes really brought her unexpected trouble and crises.

Although Tong Yao and the others' cultivation was not as good as hers, they knew much more than her and had more channels to obtain information. Sometimes, because they mastered the information gap, they could directly make up for the lack of cultivation.

"In the end, it's because the circle of cultivators I'm exposed to is too narrow."

She had to find a way to broaden her circle.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Yu Fu arrived at the bamboo house.

Hua Changxi looked surprised: "Why did you come so fast this time?"

Yu Fu: "Master, I happened to have something to report to you." Saying this, he took out a stack of pre-orders for body-quenching medicinal bath spiritual medicine packs.

Hua Changxi took it and looked at it, also somewhat surprised: "Why are there so many pre-orders?"

Yu Fu: "Indeed." Pausing, "Master, the Heaven Department also came to pre-order. The person who came was your eldest brother, accompanied by Pavilion Master Huo. They are currently in the Personnel Department, being entertained by Steward Xu. Do you want to see them?"

Hua Changxi was silent for a moment: "It's my eldest brother's first time coming to Dan Yuan Peak; I should see him." After finishing, she didn't talk about this anymore, but turned to talk about borrowing the Qihuang Pavilion.

"Later, you go to the No. 4 Qihuang Pavilion and the No. 5 Qihuang Pavilion. I want to borrow these two Qihuang Pavilions tonight. Ask them if they are willing."

Although Yu Fu was surprised, he didn't ask for the reason. After agreeing, seeing that Hua Changxi had no other instructions, he left.

Once he left, Hua Changxi sent a message, calling Zhou Shou from the Mission Hall over.

"Master, you called for me."

Hua Changxi handed the pre-order list given by Yu Fu to him: "Select a batch of apprentices who are familiar with spiritual medicine and are careful, specifically responsible for preparing body-quenching medicinal bath spiritual medicine packs."

Pausing, "How are Ye Lingxuan and Jiang Henian doing?"

Zhou Shou thought carefully: "They are quite diligent; the tasks they took on were all completed well."

Hua Changxi: "That person named Zhang He, since she is a third-grade spiritual planter, she should be very familiar with spiritual medicine. Assign her to prepare the body-quenching spiritual medicine packs, and let her monitor the quality issues."

Zhou Shou agreed: "Yes."

Since Hua Changxi knew that Ye Lingxuan and her group were descendants of the Alchemy Saint Hall, although she was unhappy with their approach of wanting to 'reap the benefits', she knew they wouldn't harm Dan Yuan Peak and had ability, so she would make good use of them.

"Assign Wang Yangeng to plant spiritual medicine, and Xiao Xuan to process spiritual medicine. During this period, let them come forward to guide other apprentices."

"As for those alchemists like Ye Lingxuan, assign them all to the alchemy room and let them refine Spirit-Returning Pills and Grain-Avoiding Pills."

Zhou Shou: "Yes."

Hua Changxi added: "The development of the first layer of the secret realm is about to end. Next, we need to prepare for the development of the second layer of the secret realm."

"The first layer of the secret realm can be participated in by apprentices without any medical or alchemy foundation, but the second layer cannot. Apprentices participating in the development of the second layer of the secret realm must have a cultivation level above the Qi Sea Realm and must thoroughly understand the 'Complete Collection of First-Grade Spiritual Medicine' and 'Complete Collection of First-Grade Spiritual Medicine Processing'."

"In this way, you go and formulate an assessment plan. In two months, it will be the end of the year. Dan Yuan Peak will hold an assessment at the end of the year. Apprentices who want to participate in the development of the second layer of the secret realm must participate in the assessment and pass it."

Zhou Shou seriously recorded Hua Changxi's instructions: "Master, rest assured, I will start preparing after I go back."

Hua Changxi: "Good, that's all for today. You go get busy."

After Zhou Shou left, Hua Changxi also left the bamboo house. She didn't drive a cloud down the mountain to the Personnel Department to see Hua Dalang, but entered the secret realm and called Hua Sanlang out.

"Third Brother, Eldest Brother is here. Do you want to see him?"

Hua Sanlang was very happy to hear that Hua Dalang had come: "Of course I want to see him. Eldest Brother is in the Demon Suppression Army and is well-informed. I have been staying on Dan Yuan Peak and don't know anything. Since Eldest Brother is here, he can tell me about things outside."

Thus, Hua Changxi took Hua Sanlang down the mountain.

On the way, the siblings didn't talk much, and the atmosphere was somewhat cold.

"Peak Master!"

When the siblings were about to reach the Logistics Department, Chu Junhao suddenly appeared and called out to Hua Changxi.

Hua Changxi looked at this Seventh Imperial Prince and asked with a smile: "Do you have something?"

Chu Junhao lowered his posture: "Peak Master, this disciple seeks an audience this time to strive for an opportunity to learn alchemy."

Hua Changxi raised her eyebrows and didn't speak.

Seeing she didn't react, Chu Junhao could only continue: "This disciple heard that in November, a batch of apprentices will follow the Peak Master to the Qihuang Pavilion to learn alchemy. This disciple is not on the list, so I took the liberty to wait here and ask the Peak Master for an opportunity."

Seeing he was quite honest, Hua Changxi asked curiously: "Chu Junhao, you are an Imperial Prince. Honestly, I can't figure out why you want to come to Dan Yuan Peak to be an apprentice?"

"If you want to learn medicine and alchemy, I suppose there are plenty of people willing to teach you. Why do you have to seek hardship for yourself?"

Chu Junhao could be considered to have understood Hua Changxi's personality quite well. Knowing she didn't like beating around the bush, he simply cast aside the pulling and tugging he had with others and chose to speak his mind.

"Yes, I am an Imperial Prince. If I want to learn medicine and alchemy, I really don't have to come to Dan Yuan Peak."

"However, Dan Yuan Peak is not just a place to learn medicine and alchemy. Joining Dan Yuan Peak also means obtaining an identity—the identity of a disciple of the Alchemy Saint Hall."

"I am not afraid of the Peak Master laughing at me. The royal family does control a lot of resources, but there are also many royal children. I can follow arrangements, but these arrangements may not be what I want. If I want to walk the path I want to walk, I have to strive for it myself."

"Joining Dan Yuan Peak is a struggle I have made for myself."

These words were very moving. After hearing them, Hua Sanlang had a certain change in view of this royal descendant, and there was even a trace of sympathy in his eyes.

As for Hua Changxi, she just smiled faintly: "If you want to obtain the identity of a disciple of the Alchemy Saint Hall, joining Shenhe Peak, Qingyao Peak, or Xuanhuang Peak is also fine?"

"Especially Qingyao Peak and Xuanhuang Peak. With your status, if you join these two peaks, you wouldn't just be an apprentice."

Chu Junhao smiled: "However, among the four peaks, only Dan Yuan Peak has received the recognition of the Divine Wood. Furthermore, Dan Yuan Peak is the purest and can really learn a lot of things."

Although Chu Junhao's answer was quite sincere, it was not enough to move Hua Changxi: "The list of apprentices learning alchemy in November has selection criteria. You are not on the list, which means you are unqualified in some aspects."

"There are more and more apprentices on Dan Yuan Peak. If everyone wants to strive for opportunities for themselves, wouldn't it be chaotic?"

"If you really want to learn alchemy, then wait. I can't guarantee anything else, but for those who really want to learn alchemy and medicine, I will definitely give them opportunities."

After finishing, she prepared to go down the mountain.

Hua Sanlang felt that Chu Junhao had already put down his dignity as an Imperial Prince, yet he was still rejected by his sister, and his mood fluctuated somewhat.

Ninth Sister is too cold not only to her family but to everyone!

Chu Junhao didn't have much change in expression. Knowing that sentiment couldn't move Hua Changxi, he changed his approach: "Peak Master, compared to other apprentices, I also have some unique advantages."

"If the Peak Master is willing to give me an opportunity, I am willing to 'repay your peach with a jade'."

These words made Hua Changxi stop and look at Chu Junhao: "Is that so?"

Seeing Hua Changxi was interested, Chu Junhao smiled: "Of course, the Chu Dynasty has ruled the Great Jin for nearly a thousand years; there are always things that can be brought out. Although I am just one of many princes, I am still a prince."

Hua Changxi thought of her own shortcoming of being poorly informed... ===== CHAPTER 310 =====
