Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?!

Chapter 316: Chapter 245: Don’t Be Too Hasty to Give Up_2
“Junior guarantees there is not a word of falsehood!” Yusheng hastily assured, “Jiang Cheng is especially good at self-study. After you take him as your disciple, even if you let him be, there is no need to worry about his cultivation progress. Moreover, he is kind-hearted, has an excellent network, and enjoys a wide reputation in the Liang Kingdom. Of course, his greatest strength is his particular ability to follow rules and regulations, he will absolutely not engage in any unlawful or disorderly conduct. I stake my reputation on this, Master, you can be completely at ease!”

Afterward, Yusheng went on to spell out all of Jiang Cheng’s various strengths to Master Yun Shu. He talked about him being a talismanic genius, being good at investment and financial management, and more, practically praising Jiang Cheng to the skies.

Master Yun Shu furrowed her beautiful eyebrows; of course, she wouldn’t believe all the hype from Yusheng.

The things she valued most were only two, one was that he wouldn’t need her instruction—because she was lazy—and the other was that he would follow the rules without giving her any trouble—because she was lazy.

One less thing to manage, and two, no bother—isn’t such a disciple as good as having none at all?

Looking at it this way, Jiang Cheng seemed to be quite suitable indeed.

Master Yun Shu delicately pinched the leaflet with her slender fingers, arched her willow brows, and once again confirmed with Yusheng, “Everything you just mentioned, is it all true?”

“Master, rest assured! Not a single word is untrue!”

Master Yun Shu nodded slightly, “Then when can he come?”

Yusheng’s heart surged with joy, and he thought to himself how it wasn’t easy at all! He finally found someone to take over!

“Two, no, within one month!”

“Alright then, let’s leave it at that,” Master Yun Shu said contentedly and gracefully returned to her residence on the mountain peak.

Yusheng, controlling his elated emotions, only began to hastily take out a long-distance communication talisman to contact Li Ancheng after he was far away from North Forest Peak.

…

Upon hearing Yusheng’s news, Li Ancheng instantly let out a sigh of relief.

On one hand, he was worried that Yusheng wouldn’t be able to find a suitable candidate, and on the other, he was concerned that after finding a suitable candidate, Jiang Cheng would be unsatisfied with them.

Now that he saw Master Yun Shu’s message, Li Ancheng finally felt at ease.

Li Ancheng might not have known Master Yun Shu well enough, but Wan Yue Mountain Master Li Ancheng was a name that thundered in his ears.

Because the Tongtian Sect was actually an organizational form of a small sect alliance, it was somewhat similar to the United Nations on Earth, where major sects within the smaller ones needed to act as “Permanent Council Sects.”

Wan Yue Mountain was one of the seven “Permanent Council Sects” within the Tongtian Sect.

Of course, there is no such term as “Permanent Council” within the Tongtian Sect; they are generally referred to as “great pillars.” It implies that the seven great inheritances stand firm from earth to heaven, holding up the entire realm of the Tongtian Sect.

Master Yun Shu, being the daughter of the Wan Yue Mountain Master, can’t be too far off the mark either!

Moreover, with her bearing the great pillar inheritance, her spells and divine abilities are amongst the very best; Jiang Cheng would have no reason to disapprove!

With Master Yun Shu agreeing to take on a disciple, Jiang Cheng gladly proceeded, and the great matter was set to succeed!

Now, the only thing left was to find someone to relay the news to Jiang Cheng.

Li Ancheng didn’t hesitate and activated a communication talisman to reach out to Gao Miao.

Upon hearing everything, Gao Miao couldn’t help but gasp in astonishment!

All of them were cultivators of the Tongtian Sect; the significance of a pillar sect was well known to him.

For common sects like theirs, they could only take official positions in remote places like the Liang Kingdom, while pillar sects could pick prosperous and close areas to the Tongtian Sect!

Lots of money, little work, ample benefits!

Incomparable to the Liang Kingdom.

What’s more, Jiang Cheng’s master was not just anyone—she was the daughter of the Sect Leader!

Gao Miao felt envious after hearing all this; what kind of luck did Jiang Cheng have? To be favored by such a rich lady?

But thankfully, with this, Jiang Cheng would certainly be leaving the Liang Kingdom!

Their branch could finally return to the mundane life of cultivating immortality!

Somehow, he felt a bit reluctant to see Jiang Cheng go.

Gao Miao composed himself, activated a communication talisman and summoned Jiang Cheng to the Talisman Master Association.

Jiang Cheng, hearing that Gao Miao had a “big matter” to discuss, thought that something major had cropped up again and hurriedly rushed over to him.

What he encountered instead was a beaming smile.

“Hahaha, Jiang Cheng, congratulations, your talent is exceptional, and you’ve caught the eye of a senior from the Tongtian Sect who wishes to take you in as a disciple, as an Inner Sect Disciple, in advance!”

Gao Miao patted Jiang Cheng’s back heartily, showing his appreciation.

Jiang Cheng was utterly baffled.

He couldn’t comprehend who would take the trouble to pay attention to the Liang Kingdom and then to him.

You should know, the Liang Kingdom was still under the jurisdiction of the Gen Mountain Branch, equivalent to a prefecture-level city; he was studying in a school under a prefecture-level city, akin to a township level. And yet he caught the attention of a preeminent cultivator from an Immortal Sect?

“`

“So, who is that senior?”

“Sit down, let me tell you all about it. The person interested in you is called Master Yun Shu, in the Perfect State of Spiritual Transformation, and everyone outside refers to her as Master Yun Shu. I say this, and you might not grasp the concept, but you must have heard of Wan Yue Mountain Sect, haven’t you? Wan Yue…”

Gao Miao chattered on excitedly, looking as if he was the one being taken as a disciple, not Jiang Cheng.

As for Jiang Cheng, he had a slightly astonished expression on his face.

Gao Miao thought he was unfamiliar with Yun Shu, but that wasn’t the case; he knew about Yun Shu.

This Yun Shu, like Lin Yao and Liu Qing, was also one of the plot leading ladies in the game.

Unlike the enchantress Lin Yao and the demoness Liu Qing, Yun Shu came from the Wan Yue Mountain Sect and was a true-blue righteous person.

If Lin Yao’s plot was “Chaos of the Enchantress,” and Liu Qing’s was “Turmoil of Mount Tian,” then Yun Shu’s would be “Cultivating Immortality Xiaoyan.”

Yun Shu’s talent for cultivating immortality was excellent, and compared to the likes of Liang Lu, who couldn’t be considered untalented but should be considered incapable of cultivating immortality.

But Yun Shu’s problem was that she had lived too comfortably under her father’s protection, and despite her unbeatable talent, she was absolutely complacent.

Not only had the other geniuses of her generation surpassed her, but gradually, even some of her juniors were overtaking her.

Latterly in the Turmoil of Mount Tian, a certain serpent took action, causing Yun Zaiyuan from Wan Yue Mountain, who was at the early stages of Mahayana, to fall two realms, leading to a sudden decline in Yun Shu’s family fortunes.

Originally unruly, she suddenly experienced being neglected, mocked, and looked down with disdain – the “Pain of Xiaoyan.”

So, Yun Shu finally woke up to reality, cast aside her laziness, reflected on her pain, and strove for improvement. Picking up the cultivation techniques she had abandoned for hundreds of years, she stepped up, making a scene and slapping faces, becoming stronger with every move. Eventually, she was elected as the Sect Leader of Tongtian Sect, becoming an influential Mahayana Cultivator.

If it were the original plot, Jiang Cheng would absolutely not become a disciple of Yun Shu.

What was he after?

Her idleness? Or her family’s fall from grace?

But now things were different; with a certain serpent to support him, the “Turmoil of Mount Tian” most likely would not recur.

Without the Turmoil of Mount Tian, Wan Yue Mountain Master Yun Zaiyuan would not be injured, resulting in no loss of his realm.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, Yun Shu would not have suffered a major calamity and would always be a wealthy lady.

Even though Yun Shu is idle, she is rich!

Even though Yun Shu isn’t dedicated to the proper pursuits, she is rich!

Even though Yun Shu isn’t ambitious, she is rich!

As a master, Yun Shu indeed has many shortcomings.

But what’s the good news?

These flaws belong to her, not Jiang Cheng!

If Jiang Cheng himself is ambitious, isn’t that enough?

Moreover, becoming a disciple of Yun Shu allows him to lean on the big tree that is Wan Yue Mountain Sect, providing much convenience whether in cultivation or job-seeking – improving his cultivation level in the first few years, and later securing an easy job as an elder should be no difficulty!

Then, there’s the retired life that Jiang Cheng has longed for.

“Jiang Cheng, this is a great opportunity to enter Tongtian Sect! What do you think?” Gao Miao looked at Jiang Cheng expectantly.

Jiang Cheng nodded and said, “Indeed, it’s good.”

“That’s great!” Gao Miao clapped his hands, “I’ll contact the Helmsman right away…”

“Hold on a moment, President Gao, I still have something I want to clear up.”

“What is it?”

“This Tongtian Sect, can only I go?”

“Of course, Master Yun Shu only wants one disciple. You should grasp such a great opportunity fast.”

Far from being pleased upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng frowned and said, “Then, what if I want to bring a few more people? Do you have a way to arrange that, President Gao?”

Gao Miao thought Jiang Cheng was joking and laughed, “The rules of Immortal Sects are strict; what can I do?”

“If that’s the case, I’d better wait and go later.”

“Alrighty, I’ll just…” Gao Miao’s smile began to freeze, “What did you say?”

Jiang Cheng honestly said, “You know, I have a friend who lacks self-care ability. If I go to Tongtian Sect alone, I’m afraid she might get into trouble.”

Gao Miao spoke seriously, “It’s not easy for Tongtian Sect to have a senior willing to take you as a disciple, don’t be too greedy!”

Jiang Cheng sighed and said, “I know it’s a rare opportunity, but my friend is also important. If it really doesn’t work out, I can only take the unified exam to enter Immortal Sect in two years.”

As soon as he heard that Jiang Cheng wouldn’t go, Gao Miao immediately panicked.

“Hold on, don’t rush to give up. I’ll ask the Helmsman again; maybe there’s still a chance?”
