The Emperor of Zongmen Workers is here

Wuliang Sect, inner kitchen, Sishan Building.

"Ah--chiu--" Pei Yi was preparing food in the inner kitchen to make a banquet to celebrate his breakthrough in cultivation and to congratulate Jiang Qingwu on becoming their 99th generation disciple. Unexpectedly, he sneezed unexpectedly. He was so scared that he quickly protected the fish in his hand with his spiritual energy, thus saving the fish from being baptized by his saliva.

It should be said that monks rarely get sick. Could it be...? A bad premonition told him that it was probably because of the menu he made that Second Senior Brother Shi Chenbai complained about it! He would definitely "teach him a lesson" when he returned! After all, he knew that the market at the foot of Wuliang Sect Mountain was not likely to have so many precious ingredients. Pei Yi's intuition told him that this was not good. He was afraid that Second Senior Brother would come back to deal with him!

"I have to think of a way to avoid this 'disaster'." Pei Yi thought while packing the ingredients.

Wuliangzong Market.

Shi Chenbai took Pei Yi's list of ingredients and went to the market with Feng Jingchen to collect as much as possible.

Shi Chenbai and Feng Jingchen's pace through the market was hurried and purposeful. Clutching Pei Yi's meticulously compiled list of ingredients, they heard the sounds of hawking and haggling. Shi Chenbai and Feng Jingchen weaved through the crowds, their eyes as sharp as hawks, quickly discerning the authenticity and quality of ingredients.

"You quickly go to the shop that supplies us with spiritual meat to purchase spiritual pigs and spiritual chickens. I will go to search for those hard-to-find dragon saliva fish and blue turtle!" Shi Chenbai instructed Feng Jingchen, gritting his teeth when he mentioned the dragon saliva fish and blue turtle.

Shi Chenbai contacted the managers of the big families in the market, and unexpectedly received a lot of blue turtles and dragon saliva fish from them. After expressing his gratitude, even though the money and goods were settled, he also said that he would definitely help if Wuliang Sect needed help in the future.

He had collected 60% of the two most difficult ingredients from various major families. He was thinking about how to deal with the last most difficult ingredient, which was also a medicinal herb. If that didn't work, he could ask Li Qinglian to think of a way. As he was thinking about this, he passed by a small stall and was attracted by a ray of light.

Shi Chenbai paused. The stall owner, a wrinkled old man, displayed a selection of rare spiritual herbs before him. His gaze lingered for a moment on a faintly glowing herb. It turned out to be the key ingredient on Pei Yi's list—Moonlight Grass. He leaned over and gently touched the herb's leaves with his fingers, feeling the delicate down and the pure spiritual energy within.

"How much is this Yuehua Grass?" Shi Chenbai asked. Shi Chenbai had given up on this Yuehua Grass, but he didn't expect to actually come across it!

The old man raised his head, a gleam in his eyes. He looked Shi Chenbai over, as if assessing his knowledge of the item. "Not for sale," the old man said calmly.

Shi Chenbai smiled faintly. He pulled out a jade slip from his sleeve, gleaming with a faint spiritual aura, and placed it before the old man. "This is a token of my sect's loyalty. We urgently need this Moonlight Grass. Please spare it, old man."

The old man picked up the jade slip and examined it carefully for a moment, a smile breaking across his face. "So you are a distinguished disciple of the Wuliang Sect. I will give you this Moonlight Grass. I hope it will be of great value in your hands."

Shi Chen thanked the old man and carefully placed the Moonlight Grass into his storage ring. He knew that this jade slip represented the reputation of the Wuliang Sect, and reputation was often more important than spirit stones in the world of immortal cultivation.

An hour later, Shi Chenbai was waiting at the place where he and Feng Jingchen had agreed to meet. A quarter of an hour later, Feng Jingchen appeared within Shi Chenbai's sight. Their storage rings gradually filled with a variety of rare ingredients. Satisfied smiles appeared on their faces. They had lived up to the trust of their junior sister/master and junior brother/uncle, having purchased the necessary ingredients. After looking at each other, they counted the ingredients and immediately flew back to the sect.

The Infinite Sect.

The sun was already high in the sky when they returned to the sect, laden with their bountiful harvest. Pei Yi was already busy in the kitchen, his figure looming in the steam and firelight. Shi Chenbai handed the ingredients to Pei Yi, who had a flicker of surprise in his eyes. He knew these ingredients would be a great addition to today's banquet.

Shi Chenbai patted Feng Jingchen's shoulder gently and praised him: "Jingchen, you did a good job this time. It's hard for you to go out with me to purchase."

"Thank you for the praise, uncle. I dare not exaggerate. It is obvious that Second Uncle has made the greater contribution! If it were not for Uncle's efforts to turn the tide, we would not be able to complete Junior Uncle's 'task' of purchasing ingredients." Feng Jingchen knew very well that he was sent by the master to do hard labor for Second Uncle, so he dared not take the credit for himself. It was good enough that he did not cause trouble for Second Uncle.

When Shi Chenbai heard "Junior Master's purchasing 'purchasing task'", he couldn't hold back his expression. Yes, there was such a thing. He looked at Pei Yi with a smile, but saw that Pei Yi had already started to compliment him happily.

"Thank you, Second Senior Brother! Second Senior Brother is so powerful and well-connected that he actually received 60% of the Azure Turtle and Dragon's Saliva Fish." Pei Yi took the Qiankun bag from him in surprise and flipped through it with his spiritual sense. "He even found the Moonlight Grass! Second Senior Brother is truly a god descended to earth. No matter how difficult the task is, it can be overcome by you!"

"I think you are itching for trouble. You even dare to daydream. If those aristocratic shops hadn't been willing to give up their products, you would have to rethink your menu for tonight. If you fail to complete the task assigned to you by your senior sister, be careful with your pills, little junior brother." Shi Chenbai took his dear junior brother Pei Yi's unreasonable shopping list to "trouble" him, verbally taught him not to make such unreasonable demands again, and used Li Qingtong to pressure him.

Yes, Li Qingtong loved to waste his pills the most, and he couldn't help but feel scared, "Fortunately, Second Senior Brother helped me a lot! This is the spiritual food I newly developed, which is helpful for cultivation. Brother, eat more at night."

"I consider you are sincere, but next time don't make these unreasonable demands to the General Affairs Hall." He could solve the problem for other disciples in the General Affairs Hall, but he couldn't. He also couldn't fulfill these unreasonable demands for this junior brother every time.

"Okay, okay, junior brother obeys your order." After Pei Yi finished speaking, he remembered that he was no longer the junior brother, and said happily: "Senior brother, now that junior uncle has accepted a new disciple, I am also a senior brother with a junior sister, and no longer the junior brother. Please correct me and call me sixth junior brother in the future." Pei Yi was very happy to think that he was not the youngest. He carried out the work in his hands in an orderly manner, and the little tiger teeth exposed when he was happy showed his good mood all the time.

"Oh? Really?" Shi Chenbai raised an eyebrow, surprised. He didn't expect that at a few hundred years old, he would still have a junior sister. It was a nice experience. He and He Yihuan were about the same age, but he was definitely no match for He Yihuan in terms of cultivation talent. Back then, He Yihuan was the most talented child who was rescued from Ye Qingcheng. When He Yihuan joined the sect, he had just emerged from the aristocratic family competition and joined the Wuliang Sect not long ago. He thought that this aloof junior uncle would ascend alone, but unexpectedly, he brought new hope to the Wuliang Sect. "It's a great joyous event. I'll go and see if there's anything suitable as a meeting gift for this new junior sister." Shi Chenbai said and left Sishanlou.

At night, in Wuliang Sect, Sishan Tower.

The night was as dark as water, the stars twinkling. Inside the Sishan Building, the lights were ablaze, their warm glow illuminating every corner. A long table was laden with delicious food meticulously prepared by Pei Yi, its aroma filling the air and making everyone salivate. All the inner disciples of the sect had gathered to celebrate He Yihuan's progress in cultivation and to perform a ceremony to celebrate Jiang Qingwu's apprenticeship.

"Congratulations to Master Uncle for his further advancement in cultivation, congratulations to Master Uncle for having a beloved disciple, and welcome Qingwu to join the Wuliang Sect family." Li Qingtong was the first to raise the wine bottle to congratulate He Yihuan and Jiang Qingwu, and Lin Feixue and Pei Yi followed suit to toast.

"Thank you." He Yihuan raised his head and drank it all.

"Thank you, senior sister! Thank you, senior brother!" Jiang Qingwu was young and drank a large cup of tea instead of wine. He had agreed with the system to cut off the spiritual connection before the banquet started so as not to interfere with each other.

As the current leader of Wuliang Sect, Li Qingtong spoke in a clear voice as she introduced the ninety-ninth and one hundredth generation disciples present to Jiang Qingwu one by one, allowing them to get to know Jiang Qingwu.

"This is Senior Brother Shi'an," Li Qingtong introduced. He was dressed in a simple blue gown, his black hair casually tied up with a simple blue headband, giving him an air of uninhibited freedom. His eyes were calm and profound, as if he could see through all the truths in the world. His aura was both ethereal and reserved, instilling a sense of trust in him.

Jiang Qingwu looked at the senior brother who was dazzled by his calm temperament and said in a baby voice, "Senior brother, my name is Jiang Qingwu."

Shi An looked at the well-behaved little junior sister and chuckled, "Hello, little junior sister. This is a gift for you since we first meet. I hope you won't dislike it." Then he took out a formation plate and gave it to Jiang Qingwu.

"Thank you, senior brother." Jiang Qingwu took it obediently.

"These two are my disciples, Lin Muci and Zhongli Xiu." Shi An pointed at a bright girl and an introverted boy.

"Greetings, Junior Master-Uncle." Lin Muci and Zhong Lixiu said in unison.

"Hello." Jiang Qingwu's mouth twitched. Great, great, great, super generation increase.

"This is our second senior brother, Shi Chenbai." Li Qingtong introduced Shi Chenbai, who was standing next to Shi An. He was serious yet gentle and was wearing a silver-white gown.

Jiang Qingwu looked at his handsome face, his eyes often adorned with a barely perceptible smile, and his second brother, who gave off a strong sense of intimacy, and called out crisply, "Hello, second brother."

"Hello, little junior sister. This is the gift that Second Senior Brother prepared for you." Shi Chenbai took out the most suitable gift he had found after rummaging through his belongings for an entire afternoon - the Flowing Light Illusion.

Everyone around was shocked. It’s so big!

"Thank you, Second Brother." Jiang Qingwu knew from everyone's reactions that this was a very valuable magic weapon.

"As you should. Congratulations, little Junior Sister, on joining the Wuliang Sect. I also wish you a happy first birthday." Indeed, as an elder in the General Affairs Hall, upon learning that the new Junior Sister was Jiang Qingwu, he had leveraged his extensive network of connections to learn about her background and, naturally, the news of her birthday. "This is also my new disciple, Feng Ci," he said, pointing to the young boy beside him.

"Hello, Junior Master." Feng Ci bowed in response.

"Hello." Jiang Qingwu was in tears. Who would save her, a socially anxious person who is not good at speaking!

What first birthday?! Everyone's expressions grew even more strange! After pondering whether their gifts were substantial enough, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they had been wealthy before, so their gifts wouldn't be embarrassing in the face of this one.

Only when Jiang Qingwu grew older did he realize the true treasure his second senior brother had gifted him. The Flowing Light Mirror was an ancient and mysterious defensive magical weapon. Its main body consisted of a round bronze mirror, approximately half a foot in diameter. Its surface, smooth as ice, reflected everything in the world. Seven gemstones of different colors were inlaid around the mirror, representing the seven elements: gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, and thunder. The back of the mirror was engraved with intricate runes and formations, radiating a faint aura, revealing its extraordinary origins.

"This is Third Senior Sister Lin Feixue, you have met her." Li Qinglian gestured to Lin Feixue.

Lin Feixue and Jiang Qingwu exchanged a smile and nodded. "And me, Junior Sister, we've met too! I'm Sixth Senior Brother!" Pei Yi, standing nearby, joined the encrypted conversation. "Junior Sister, today's dishes were specially prepared for you and Uncle Master. They're all good for healing and cultivation. I just developed them! The ingredients are so hard to come by, so Second Senior Brother helped me find them!"

"Thank you, Sixth Senior Brother!" Jiang Qingwu was so touched. He was also really grateful to this noisy Sixth Senior Brother. The atmosphere was finally not so depressing.

"You're welcome. Junior sister, please pick and eat more." Pei Yi said with a smile.

Li Qingtong was speechless. Li Qingtong had nothing to say and could only continue to introduce the next person, "This is your fourth senior brother Li Qinglian, then I am the fifth, and I am your fifth senior sister, and finally your sixth senior brother Pei Yi." Li Qingtong was relatively casual with Li Qinglian.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's the matter? Should I give you the gift or not?" Li Qinglian, who was dressed in green, said half-jokingly and pretended to be angry, "This is my gift to my junior sister, a bottle of Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill." Li Qinglian took out a large bottle of Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill that he had carefully prepared and handed it to Jiang Qingwu.

"Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother." Jiang Qingwu had read the immortal cultivation literature in his previous life and knew very well the preciousness of this bottle of Nine Revolutions Soul-Restoring Pill. Even if it was not as miraculous as described in his previous life, it must have the effect of prolonging life if it was called by this name.

"You're welcome." Li Qinglian responded with a smile, then pointed to Feng Jingchen next to him, "This is my disciple, Feng Jingchen."

"Li Qinglian, I'll give you a chance to reorganize your words." Li Qingtong smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

"Ahem, he's your fifth senior sister's disciple." Li Qinglian coughed to hide her embarrassment.

The others around him and Feng Jingchen seemed to be used to it. Feng Jingchen smiled apologetically and said respectfully, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Junior Uncle. Fourth Uncle is my master's elder brother and also our disciple's teacher. All of you uncles are our disciples' second masters."

"Yes, yes, senior brother is right." Lin Muci, Zhongli Xiu, Feng Ci and others also echoed.

"Thank you, everyone." Jiang Qingwu looked at the people in front of him. They all had gentle smiles on their faces, and their eyes were full of welcome and love for the new junior sister.

"Jiang Qingwu, happy birthday, and welcome to join the Wuliang Sect." He Yihuan smiled and looked at her gently.

"Yes! Thank you!" Jiang Qingwu responded crisply. She seemed to be responding to He Yihuan, responding to Dongxu Realm, and responding to the way of heaven.

The grand introduction meeting ended here, with laughter and chatter among the crowd.

At this point, Jiang Qingwu officially joined the Wuliang Sect's big family.
