235: Wuji Patriarch appointed as Miscellaneous Elder

Qingtian Sect Elder District.

Huyan Zhuo led Ancestor Wuji to Li Big Saber's residence.

"Old Ghost Wuji, this is the Grand Elder's residence. Go in yourself, this Old Man is going to work." Huyan Zhuo pointed at Li Big Saber's house, dropped that sentence, and left.

He had been out for a while and needed to hurry back to Artifact Refining.

After all, the current Qingtian Sect must be famous throughout Central State. If they were to open their doors to recruit Disciples, who knows how many Disciples they would take in.

So he had to quickly go back and produce more equipment, otherwise, if he couldn't provide it when needed, he would be finished.

Watching Huyan Zhuo leave, Ancestor Wuji said nothing more, but bowed respectfully to Li Big Saber's residence and called out, "Reporting to Grand Elder, this junior has arranged everything and has come to report back to Grand Elder."

"Mm, come in and speak." Li Big Saber's voice came from inside.

With Li Big Saber's approval, Ancestor Wuji quickly stepped into the manor.

At this moment, Li Big Saber in the manor was tending to flowers and plants. Seeing Ancestor Wuji enter, he said with a calm expression, "No Dust, This Elder intends to have you manage all the odd-job Disciples of the Qingtian Sect and become the Sect's Odd-Job Elder. Do you have any objections?"

Most positions within the Qingtian Sect were already filled, so he could only demote Xia Jiba's Odd-Job Elder status and let Ancestor Wuji take over.

This would ensure Ancestor Wuji had work to do and wouldn't become someone who received Immortal Essence for nothing.

"Willing, willing. As long as I can serve the Upper Sect, this junior is willing to even be an odd-job Disciple."

Hearing Li Big Saber wanted to appoint him as an Odd-Job Elder, Ancestor Wuji nodded with a joyful expression.

One must know that the Three Great Demon Emperors of the Demon Kingdom were guarding the gate at the foot of the mountain. For him to become an Odd-Job Elder was already very good.

After all, an Odd-Job Elder was still an Elder, much better than guarding the gate.

"Good, since you have no objections, I will call someone to take you to your post."

Seeing Ancestor Wuji agree.

Li Big Saber said no more and directly summoned Xia Jiba, preparing to have him take Ancestor Wuji to his new post.

"Odd-Job Elder Xia Jiba greets Grand Elder!!" Xia Jiba came into the manor and cupped his fists in salute to Li Big Saber.

"Mm."

Li Big Saber nodded, pointed at Ancestor Wuji, and said to Xia Jiba, "Xia Jiba, from today onwards, you will be demoted to Odd-Job Deacon. This Elder No Dust will take over the position of Odd-Job Elder. You will assist him in managing all odd-job Disciples from now on, do you understand?"

Xia Jiba glanced at Ancestor Wuji, then replied respectfully, "Yes, Grand Elder."

After giving instructions to Xia Jiba, Li Big Saber took out an Immortal Essence crystal and flew it in front of Ancestor Wuji, saying, "No Dust, you are now the Qingtian Sect's official Odd-Job Elder. This is your salary. You can come to me every ten days to collect one."

Looking at the Immortal Essence crystal radiating Immortal Essence in front of him, Ancestor Wuji was so excited he almost cried. He grabbed the Immortal Essence crystal and frantically saluted Li Big Saber, "Thank you, Grand Elder, thank you, Grand Elder. This junior will definitely do a good job."

Although Jiang Chen had said that working in the Qingtian Sect would earn Immortal Essence crystals, he was still overwhelmed with emotion when he actually held one in his hand.

He had lived for tens of thousands of years and had never even seen an Immortal Essence crystal. Now, just by being an Odd-Job Elder in the Qingtian Sect, he could obtain Immortal Essence crystals. How could he not be excited?

"Don't thank This Elder, thank Sect Master. Everything in this Qingtian Sect belongs to Sect Master."

Seeing Ancestor Wuji bowing and scraping, almost crying with gratitude, Li Big Saber quickly reminded him.

As a Subordinate, he dared not take Jiang Chen's credit for himself. He had to constantly remind these people whose food they were eating.

"Yes, yes, Grand Elder's reminder is correct."

Ancestor Wuji reacted, quickly knelt towards the Main Hall and kowtowed vigorously, shouting, "Thank you, Sect Master, thank you, Sect Master..."

"Alright, Elder No Dust, your sincerity is enough. If you keep kowtowing, my floor will shatter."

Seeing Ancestor Wuji kowtowing non-stop, Li Big Saber spoke with some helplessness.

Although these floors couldn't be shattered, Ancestor Wuji continuously kowtowing wasn't ideal either.

"Hehe, Grand Elder, please forgive my rudeness. I was too excited and couldn't help but kowtow a bit more."

Ancestor Wuji stood up, laughing awkwardly.

"Alright, Xia Jiba, take Elder No Dust to familiarize himself with his duties and take up his post."

Li Big Saber waved his hand, signaling Xia Jiba could take Ancestor Wuji away.

"Yes, Grand Elder." Xia Jiba responded, then looked at Ancestor Wuji, waiting for him to leave together.

And Ancestor Wuji, seeing this, also cupped his fists in salute to Li Big Saber, "Thank you for your troubles, Grand Elder. This junior takes his leave."

With that, he and Xia Jiba exited Li Big Saber's manor.

Qingtian Sect Plaza.

Ancestor Wuji and Xia Jiba arrived beside Holy Master Wuji and his group.

"Old Ancestor, have you met the Upper Sect's Grand Elder? What position did he give you in the Upper Sect?" Seeing Ancestor Wuji approach, Holy Master Wuji asked.

With Ancestor Wuji's cultivation, he should at least hold a powerful Elder position in the Qingtian Sect. This way, even if they were doing odd jobs in the Qingtian Sect, Ancestor Wuji could look after them.

"Hehe, this Old Ancestor is now the Upper Sect's Odd-Job Elder, your direct superior." Ancestor Wuji was in high spirits, replying proudly.

"What! Just an Odd-Job Elder?"

Holy Master Wuji and dozens of Holy Land Disciples were all stunned, their faces blank.

One must know that an Odd-Job Elder was an insignificant position in the Wuji Holy Land, usually held by Cultivators at the Venerable Realm.

In other words, Ancestor Wuji was completely insignificant in the Qingtian Sect, with no substantial power.

Everyone recovered from their shock.

Looking at Ancestor Wuji's proud demeanor, they were all confused.

They couldn't understand why Ancestor Wuji, a majestic Peak Great Emperor, had fallen to being an Odd-Job Elder, and what there was to be proud of.

"Alright, what do you young ones know? The Upper Sect's Odd-Job Elder position holds great value, beyond your imagination."

"Now, all of you follow me. This Old Ancestor is your direct superior. From now on, you must work even harder and not be lazy in the slightest."

Seeing the expressions of Holy Master Wuji and the dozens of Disciples.

Ancestor Wuji, for once, offered an explanation, then called the dozens of people to follow him to the Odd-Job Elder's office to assign them odd jobs.

He naturally understood their thoughts.

But he wouldn't explain too much to these people. After all, it was better for fewer people to know about the Qingtian Sect using Immortal Essence crystals as salary.

Holy Master Wuji and the dozens of others followed Ancestor Wuji with bitter expressions.

Ancestor Wuji, as an Odd-Job Elder, not only didn't take care of them but also demanded they work harder. This was attacking his own people first.
