The Evil Emperor Chases His Wife: The Good-for-Nothing Lady Is a Genius

"Of course... No one is as good as you anyway. Among the people I know, you are the first one to pass the assessment in one go." The vice president looked at Jiang Xue with shining eyes.

"So, would you like to consider becoming my apprentice again?" the vice-president asked again without giving up.

"I won't consider it. Vice President, you are so short of apprentices. There are so many good ones. Why do you have to choose me?" Jiang Xue asked curiously.

"Every dean has an apprentice. I also want to take one in." The vice-president said bluntly.

"The dean actually accepted a disciple? Is his disciple in this academy?" Jiang Xue looked at the vice-dean and asked.

"No, the dean's apprentice has only come to the academy a few times. I have only seen his apprentice a few times, and the dean was always teaching him outside." The vice-dean said, standing with his hands behind his back.

"You haven't met the dean, but you must have seen his apprentice. It seems that you two are quite familiar with each other." The vice-dean smiled maliciously.

"Really? Am I very familiar with him?" After Jiang Xue searched her mind, a person emerged in her mind. She suddenly felt her heart beating faster and looked at the vice-president in shock.

The vice president looked at Jiang Xue's expression and nodded happily.

"Nangong Jue is the dean's apprentice?" Jiang Xue looked at the vice dean and nodded in answer.

"Vice Dean, do you know that Nangong Jue has other identities?" Jiang Xue remembered that at the competition in Tianlong Country, the vice dean was very polite to Nangong Jue. This politeness could not be as simple as Nangong Jue being the dean's apprentice.

"Yes, but he didn't tell you, and I can't reveal his identity." The vice president said with some difficulty.

"Okay, Vice Dean, I'd like to ask, are the people in the top 100 of the inner courtyard rankings all at the Spirit Transformation Realm?" Jiang Xue asked curiously.

"Most of them are, right? Except for the first one, who has the strength of the Void Refinement Realm, the others are basically in the Spirit Transformation Realm. Once they enter the Spirit Transformation Realm, even a slight difference in strength is still a gap." The vice president reminded Jiang Xue.

"They are all at the Spiritual Transformation Realm, why are their rankings different?"

"Because some people don't want to practice anymore after they reach the Spirit Transformation Realm, and they retire on the mountain. In the beginning, they were excited about fighting and killing, but as time went on, they didn't want to change the courtyards they lived in, so they haven't competed with each other for a long time." The vice-president explained.

"The top few disciples often go outside the academy for training,"

"I see. Then I will challenge the disciple ahead of me tomorrow." Jiang Xue thought that she had been at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage and it was difficult to break through. She wanted to try to grow faster in the competition.

After the vice president left, Jiang Xue also walked towards the top of the mountain. She had been in the Seven Star Tower for the past few days and didn't know what happened to the medicinal herbs. She wanted to go and take a look.

"Senior Sister Yuxiang, I'm here." Jiang Xue arrived at Senior Sister Yuxiang's courtyard, but did not see her, so Jiang Xue shouted in the courtyard.

"I'm coming, Axue, wait a minute." Senior Sister Yuxiang replied anxiously.

"Senior Sister, what are you doing?" After Jiang Xue heard Senior Sister Yuxiang's voice, she walked towards the kitchen.

"What's that smell? Is something burnt?" The closer Jiang Xue got to the kitchen, the stronger the burnt smell became. She was curious and wanted to go in to take a look.

"Hehe, A'xue, congratulations on passing the Seven Star Tower assessment, you are really amazing." Senior Sister Yuxiang hid her hands behind her back, her face was dark and her hair was a little messy. She stood at the kitchen door and stopped Jiang Xue who was about to step into the kitchen, and smiled awkwardly.

"Senior Sister Yuxiang, what are you cooking?" Jiang Xue turned her head to look into the kitchen, but Senior Sister Yuxiang quickly blocked her view with her body.

"I originally wanted to celebrate your success in the assessment, but I didn't expect that my cooking skills were not good enough and I almost burned down the kitchen, and ended up in this state myself." Senior Sister Yuxiang looked at herself in annoyance. At this moment, her clothes were all smoked black.

Jiang Xue was somewhat moved. She didn't expect that Senior Sister Yuxiang couldn't cook and actually wanted to make herself look like this to celebrate for her. She looked at her with some amusement.

"Senior Sister Yuxiang, thank you." Jiang Xue looked at Senior Sister Yuxiang and said sincerely.

"You help me, I'll do it." After Jiang Xue said that, she rolled up her sleeves and walked around Senior Sister Yuxiang to the kitchen.

After Jiang Xue cleaned up the mess in the kitchen, she looked at the ingredients in the kitchen. In addition to vegetables, there was also some monster meat.

Jiang Xue thought that since it was just the two of them eating, she could just use these ingredients to make a few simple dishes.

After Jiang Xue quickly washed the vegetables, the hot water prepared by Senior Sister Yuxiang was also ready.

After Jiang Xue soaked the monster in hot water for a while, she picked it up and quickly took off its hair, revealing its snow-white flesh.

"Wow, Ah Xue, you are amazing. Not only do you look so pretty, but you are also very good at this kind of work." Senior Sister Yuxiang watched and learned from the side. She kept praising Jiang Xue.

"Practice makes perfect." Jiang Xue answered simply, and then quickly put the monster on the chopping board. She raised her knife and chopped the monster into many small pieces at a very fast speed. In the blink of an eye, a small pile of meat was put into the basin by Jiang Xue.

"Senior Sister, light the firewood." Jiang Xue simply cleaned the pot, then poured in some clean water and put the monster meat into the pot. At the same time, she crushed the ginger in her hand and put it into the pot.

Senior Sister Yuxiang did not notice Jiang Xue's action, because she was blowing hard on the stove fire with her mouth, trying to make the fire bigger.

After one stick of incense

"Wow, it smells so good, Axue, you are just like a fairy from heaven." Senior Sister Yuxiang swallowed her saliva as she looked at the dishes prepared by Jiang Xue.

"Senior Sister Yuxiang, you keep praising me. Aren't you feeling thirsty?" Jiang Xue said speechlessly. Senior Sister Yuxiang was praising her while swallowing her saliva as she looked at the dishes.

"Let's go, we're going to have lunch." Before Jiang Xue could reach out to touch the dish, a hand reached out as fast as lightning and took the dish away.

"Axue, let me get it. You work so hard to cook. Today is to celebrate for you. How can I let you work harder? I'm so sorry!" As she spoke, Senior Sister Yuxiang had already brought the dishes to the stone table in the yard with brisk steps.

After Jiang Xue left the kitchen, she wanted to check the growth of the herbs. She came to the edge of the herb field and carefully observed the herbs. She found that some leaves had become dry and the surrounding leaves were slightly curled.
