87: Cowardly Master

After guiding Ning Haocheng through the final touches in the Chat Group, Chu Mo quickly went offline.

His supplies were heavily depleted from this trip, and he needed to replenish them as soon as possible.

Additionally, the Human Emperor Flag Employment Center also needed to be established so that these souls could learn cultivation knowledge while better serving the people.

As for who the people they served were?

That goes without saying!

Chu Mo continuously searched for basic Alchemy manuals within the Dan Pavilion, organizing, summarizing, translating, and simplifying them to compile suitable teaching materials for the wronged souls to study.

To refine Medicinal Pills, the first and indispensable requirement is the corresponding knowledge.

Time passed bit by bit.

After an unknown period, Chu Mo’s diligently compiled Barefoot Alchemy Manual Version 1.0 was released.

It teaches you Alchemy hand-in-hand.

“Alchemy Basics: From Beginner to Mastery”

After projecting it onto the Human Emperor Flag, Chu Mo instructed the main souls with high intelligence and cultivation to first learn this knowledge, then act as teachers to guide the other souls.

The early learners would guide the later learners, achieving common progress.

Their ultimate goal, naturally, was to enter the most Advanced Alchemy company and become diligent, hardworking laborers.

“Phew~”

“The employment problem of these souls… is settled. I hope they all have a wonderful 007 life!”

Chu Mo let out a sigh of relief.

This time, not only did he compile Alchemy teaching materials, but he also perfected a series of systems.

Considering the superiority of souls.

Therefore, there were no salaries, holidays, social insurances, or social welfare whatsoever.

It was just 007, continuous work.

If you don't do it, there are plenty of souls who will!

The Human Emperor Flag has no shortage of souls!

The only benefits were probably Advanced Alchemy methods and extensive Alchemy experience.

“I wonder how Old Ning is doing. I should ask… Hmm?!”

Just as Chu Mo was about to ask Ning Haocheng about his progress in the Chat Group, he suddenly heard a sound and spun around.

The door of the Dan Pavilion was pushed open.

Two little lolis, like twins, entered the Dan Pavilion and met Chu Mo’s gaze.

“Dan Peak does not allow outsiders!” Chu Mo’s face, which had been smiling from finishing his work, instantly turned cold, his eyes filled with ferocity, and his Daoist robe billowed without wind.

Dense Talismans shot out from behind his Daoist robe, sealing the entire Dan Pavilion while also rushing towards the two girls like a roaring tide.

“Dis… Disciple, stop! Stop quickly! We are your Masters!”

“Masters? Where would I get Masters? If you’re going to make up excuses, at least make them logical…”

“Eh? Wait, it seems I really do have two Masters I’ve never met!”

Chu Mo suddenly remembered that he had two nominal Masters on Xiao Zhu Peak. Could it be these two little lolis in front of him?!

It… couldn’t be, right…

Although he couldn't prove that the two were his nominal Masters.

Similarly, he couldn't prove that they weren't.

So, he felt he should give them three minutes to explain and prove they were his Masters.

“Condense!”

Chu Mo formed a hand seal, forcefully stopping the attack.

The Talismans stopped ten centimeters from the two, and the Blazing Sword hovered above their heads, not falling.

Such a scene.

It scared the two of them, making them tremble.

“Sister! This place seems even scarier than Xiao Zhu Peak! Should we… should we just find a Disciple outside and use teaching as an excuse to stay out there?”

“Good point! Let’s go now!”

The two sisters gave Chu Mo an apologetic smile, leaving behind a phrase, ‘Sorry to bother you.’

Then, they turned and ran.

“Bang!”

The door slammed shut, and Talismans circulated within the Dan Pavilion, covering all possible escape routes, while the magic swords were placed against their fair necks.

Chu Mo sat in the Grand Master’s chair and said indifferently, “What do you take my Dan Peak for? A place where you can come and go as you please?”

The two leaned against the door, which was covered in Talismans, looking at Chu Mo with fear, their voices a little stammering.

“Dis… Disciple, let’s talk this over.”

“That’s right! Let’s talk it over. There’s no need for weapons! We… we can negotiate.”

The slightly bustier sister reached out and pushed away the magic sword resting on her neck.

But as soon as she pushed it away, the magic sword moved back closer.

A cold voice sounded from in front.

“Hmph! You two Soul Transformation Stage cultivators, sneaking into my Dan Peak late at night, claiming to be my Masters, and now that you see you can’t gain an advantage, you want to just leave? How could it be that easy?”

“Tell me, who sent you?”

“Are you two Demonic Path spies?”

A series of questions left the two not knowing how to answer, stammering and blushing.

“We… that…”

“Actually, we didn’t want to come here. It’s just that we had nowhere else to go…”

Chu Mo slammed the armrest. “Stop playing coy with me! What do you mean you didn’t want to come here and had nowhere to go? You two are Soul Transformation Stage cultivators! Just beat up a random Disciple, and wouldn’t you have a place to stay?”

“Sister, he’s so smart! If we do as he says, we’ll definitely have a place to live.”

“Randomly beating people and forcibly occupying others’ residences is against sect rules. We must never do that.”

Listening to their conversation.

Chu Mo’s face was covered in black lines.

For dignified Soul Transformation Stage powerhouses to be in such a state in Xuanxiao Sect was unheard of.

He formed a sword seal with his hand, and the magic swords retracted.

“The Dan Pavilion is where I cultivate in seclusion. Normally, you cannot enter it without my permission! Only with my permission can you enter!”

“Additionally, your living quarters can only be at and below the mid-mountain level. There are many vacant houses there; pick whichever one you want.”

“I generally don’t move around, and you shouldn’t think about coming up to visit, because… I’m socially anxious…”

“Understand?”

The Talismans blocking the exit slowly receded, and Chu Mo raised his hand, sending out a stream of Qi to open the door, ‘seeing them out.’

These two’s logical thinking was very problematic.

If he wasn’t mistaken, they should be his two nominal Masters.

“Masters who are educated by their Disciple and dare not talk back—that’s truly something else.” Chu Mo sighed inwardly.

The people from Xiao Zhu Peak were indeed not very reliable. The only one he could rely on was Senior Brother Shen Qingqiu.

“Little Five, I truly didn’t misjudge you!”

“Right! Little Five is indeed the most promising Disciple of our Xiao Zhu Peak!”

Hearing that Chu Mo allowed them to stay at Dan Peak, and that he generally wouldn’t go down the mountain, nor would he allow them to come up.

This made them extremely happy!

Where could you find a Disciple who didn’t cause trouble for their Masters like this!

“Little… Five?”

Chu Mo looked at the two bouncing, overjoyed ‘little lolis’ with a face full of black lines.

He didn’t speak, merely pointed towards the door.

The meaning was clear.

Get out!

The two were very obedient.

They happily walked out of the Dan Pavilion.

“These kinds of Masters… are really unreliable! If anything happens in the future, I definitely can’t count on them.” Chu Mo put a hand to his forehead, sighing helplessly.

At this moment, two small heads peeked out from behind the door—it was precisely the two female Masters who had left.

“Um… Little Five, you don’t know our names yet, do you! I’m Jiang Qianqian, your Great Master!”

“I’m Jiang Ningning, your Second Master!”

Chu Mo glanced at the twin sisters, raised his hand, and flicked two streams of Qi, hitting them on their foreheads.

“Don’t call me Little Five! I have a name!”

“The name Han Li isn’t nice to hear! It’s too common! Calling you Little Five is better, it makes us seem closer.”

The two rubbed their foreheads and said with a giggle.

Chu Mo: “……”

That lousy nickname, Little Five, sounds good?
