My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 340 The Doctor of Scripture
"Brother Chen may not know me, but he certainly knows my elder brother," Sun Chengye said with a radiant smile. "My elder brother is Sun Wuhuan!"

Chen Mu's face immediately darkened.

We've been exposed!
His right hand, which had been behind his back, opened, flashing with black light, and a palm-sized Yin-Yang Moon Blade appeared in his palm.

The Yangcha Bone Shield also rose up behind him, spinning rapidly.

Just as he was about to strike, Sun Chengye suddenly clasped his hands in a fist salute with a broad smile and said, "I apologize for my unauthorized visit, Brother Chen."

"I just received some news and couldn't help but share the good news with Brother Chen."

Annunciation?

Something seems off.

Sun Chengye spoke with a smile, conveying a sense of intimacy: "Brother Chen, you may not know this, but you have made great contributions in spreading the scriptures, producing three alchemists for the Jilong Taoist sect."

"Now he has been selected by the Institute of Scripture Transmission and will soon become a Doctor of Scripture Transmission."

"I'd like to congratulate Brother Chen in advance!"

Chen Mu was a little confused.

Doctor of Scripture Transmission?

What the hell?

"Brother Sun, please come in quickly. Please forgive any neglect." Chen Mu quietly put aside the misunderstanding and said with a sincere apology.

“I know nothing about the Doctor of Scriptures. Could you please tell me in detail?”

"Brother Chen is so focused on alchemy and ignores worldly affairs, I admire him greatly."

"I've come here to answer Brother Chen's questions," Sun Chengye said cheerfully.

This Chen Mu is so young, yet he can guide three alchemists; his future is limitless.

If he could successfully win the other party over to the Sun family, it would be a great achievement for him.

"May I ask, Brother Chen, are you married?"

Chen Mu was completely bewildered.

"It seems not!" Sun Chengye's smile grew even brighter.

“I have a cousin named Sun Jiaojiao, who is the youngest daughter of Elder Sun of our Chicken Cage Sect. She is voluptuous and beautiful, truly a rare and perfect match.”

"Back then, when the genius Mo Wuzhou from the lower academy came to propose marriage, our Sun family didn't agree."

"Come, come, let me explain this to you properly!"

Chen Mu: “…”

What?! I've already time-traveled, and I still have to go on blind dates?!

……

After seeing Sun Chengye off, Chen Mu stood in the corridor with a complicated expression.

After Sun Chengye explained, he finally understood what was going on.

The incident originated from Bai Xiuwen, Feng Haoxiu, and Xue Yangliu.

Recently, they have successively mastered the Bigu Pill and become alchemists at the Danbao Pavilion.

The appearance of three alchemists at the same time naturally aroused curiosity and questions.

Then Chen Mu was exposed.

"I didn't give you much guidance, did I?" Chen Mu was still a little confused.

It is unclear how things developed afterward, but it caught the attention of the Buddhist Academy.

"Is it because you admire my understanding of the Golden Pearl Talisman?" Chen Mu had some guesses in his mind.

It was only at this moment that he suddenly realized that the insights gained from proficiency were truly extraordinary!
"Whether it's good or bad, we'll know in a few days."

“On the contrary, it’s Sun Chengye…” Chen Mu couldn’t help but narrow his eyes.

The Sun family did not give up their investigation of Sun Wuhuan.

"Is it because of the gourd sword case?"

The idea that I had previously had of digging out the sacrificial sword pellet vanished instantly.

"How about we bury it a little deeper?"

……

Misty Mountain, Cloud Top Palace.

"Chen Mu? Doctor of Scripture Transmission?" Liang Yi's eyes widened in surprise.

"First there was Mo Wuzhou, then there was Chen Mu."

"Your Tongtianhe Lower Academy is truly full of talented people," Liu Ling said with a smile.

"It was pure luck," Liang Yi said, scratching his head.

Although I knew Chen Mu was good at alchemy, I didn't expect him to stand out so quickly.

"Upon careful calculation, he has only had the secret method for obtaining the Bigu Pill for a little over a year."

"Not only did he become an alchemist himself, but he was also able to guide the other three."

"This talent and comprehension, wow... amazing!" Liang Yi was still a little incredulous. "With such talent, why would he go to the lower academy?" Liu Ling asked疑惑地.

"I don't know." Liang Yi was also puzzled: "It might be related to the fact that he comes from a remote island."

“Then he is probably a genius with hidden Daoist talent.” Liu Ling suddenly realized: “The methods in the borderlands are crude, so it’s normal that they can’t detect hidden Daoist talent.”

“However, people who come out of those Gu-breeding grounds are all ruthless characters.” Liu Ling looked puzzled: “How did he become an alchemist?”

"Such a killer should be sent to the Inspection Bureau."

"Hmm...maybe this person doesn't like fighting." Liang Yi squinted, saying something he himself didn't believe.

"Bullshit!" Liu Ling glanced at Liang Yi sideways: "I bet he's a cunning guy who's pretending to be weak while actually being strong."

Liang Yi grinned sheepishly.

The other party used sinister and mysterious methods, changing their appearance each time they met, never showing their true face.

Their actions were so secretive; they certainly seemed a bit sinister.

"Alright. Anyway, he came from your Tongtianhe Lower Courtyard. Go and inform him," Liu Ling said, waving her hand.

"Make it clear to him that the Scripture Transmission Academy does value his insights, but it's not a freebie; it's a mutually beneficial arrangement. Don't let any misunderstandings arise."

If we let such a guy harbor resentment, who knows what kind of trouble he might cause in the future.

"I will explain it to him clearly," Liang Yi said solemnly, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

Watching Liang Yi's departing figure, Liu Ling suddenly had a thought.

Did this person come to Yanxia Mountain to practice the Bigu Elixir?

This seems to be a considerable amount of Taoist merit, doesn't it?
Liu Ling couldn't help but think of Sun Wuhuan.

The other party's secret technique is unique, and they urgently need Daoist jade. If we were to target this person...

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
"Old devil Sun is really annoying." Liu Ling shook her head and chuckled: "I can't help but think about Sun Wuhuan's disappearance in everything."

Sun Wuhuan is almost at the Qi Condensation stage, and he also possesses the Sun family's flying sword. How could this be?
……

A small grove of trees outside the bamboo house.

Chen Mu stood on an open space, muttering to himself.

Accompanied by a deep incantation, a strange power appeared in front of him.

"Turning the earth into steel!"

The already soft soil in front of him became even softer, and even the pebbles in it melted into mud like paraffin wax.

"It's done."

Chen Mu withdrew his magic and nodded in satisfaction.

"With this secret method, underground tunnels can be dug or filled in quickly."

Most importantly, it can quickly dig a hole to bury the gourd sword box deeper.

Just as I was about to continue practicing, my ears suddenly twitched, and I heard a familiar footstep.

Chen Mu immediately left the woods and returned to the bamboo house.

Before long, we saw Sun Chengye with a big smile on his face.

Chen Mu put on a happy smile, but his heart sank.

This was not the first time Sun Chengye had come.

It's not a good thing that the other party values ​​you so much.

It would be bad if a flaw were to be exposed one day.

……

Cloud Palace on Misty Mountain.

"Although you are asked to submit your insights on alchemy, it's not without its benefits."

"Not only will you immediately gain a Daoist skill, but you will also receive a share of the profits from the subsequent sales of annotations by the Scripture Transmission Academy."

"And by passing the review of the Institute of Scripture Transmission, one can become a Doctor of Scripture Transmission."

"Once we return to Yuquan Mountain, we only need to report to the Scripture Transmission Academy, and then we can recruit students and teach on our own to earn Taoist merit."

Liang Yi carefully explained to Chen Mu the benefits of being a Doctor of Scripture Transmission.

"To impart knowledge and teach, do we need to return to Yuquan Mountain?" Chen Mu's eyes lit up.

“Actually, teaching at the upper academy is the most cost-effective,” Liang Yi said with a smile.

"The detached courtyard only has a total of fifty-odd alchemy apprentices, which is far fewer than the main courtyard."

"How about it? Think about it."

"No need to think about it anymore, I'll go back and write the annotations for the Golden Pearl Talisman right now," Chen Mu said readily.

Sun Chengye spent all his time wandering around Wuyan Mountain, appearing in front of him every few days.

Chen Mu felt it would be better to go back to Yuquan Mountain to hide for a while.
