After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Chapter 18 Alternative Learning Methods
Xu Yihan was furious. "Steward Guo! Whether or not to register is a decision made by our sect. What right does your Liuxian Sect have to interfere in our affairs, and how can you register us on our behalf without our consent? This is probably inappropriate."

Steward Guo, however, was not afraid at all and still smiled, "Sect Leader Xu, please calm down. Our sect leader meant well. He was worried that you were unwell and unable to manage your sect's affairs, so he helped you out. How can you not be grateful but blame him instead?"

"Also, it's too late for you to say this now. Once the sect is reported, it cannot be changed. So... no matter what you think, the Three Arts Flower Sect has no choice but to participate this time!"

After saying that, Steward Guo gave a light snort and turned to leave.

Although he was smiling as he spoke, the ruthlessness and malice in his eyes were unmistakable.

"boom!"

Xu Yihan slammed his hand on the armrest of his wheelchair with a grim face. "This is outrageous!"

Liu Feng frowned deeply. "Sect Leader, their actions are clearly intended to embarrass and humiliate us."

"Hmph, he can't wait to force our Immortal Sect to close down and become anonymous." Xu Yihan's anger turned into helplessness. "Fine, since it can't be changed, let's just go through the motions. Let's see which of our disciples can barely manage to make a move on with pills, talismans, and artifacts, and then we'll just go through the motions."

No!

[Isn't it just alchemy, talisman making, and artifact crafting? The Immortal Sect can participate too, and we're not short of money right now!]

[Senior Sister Du Yue possesses a gentle and tranquil Dao heart, a calm yet powerful mindset perfectly suited for alchemy. Moreover, she happens to have a fire spiritual root, so she can learn it quickly.]

[For weapon crafting, Meng Ling is the most suitable! Although her spiritual root is damaged, it only affects her cultivation, not weapon crafting. Moreover, she has a lightning spiritual root; applying a bolt of spiritual lightning after crafting will also have a tempering effect on the magical artifact.]

As for making talismans, I think barbarian wine will suffice.

[Alas, it's a pity I'm too young. Otherwise, with my guidance, they could achieve some success within two months! They might not get top rankings, but at least they wouldn't be embarrassed, and certainly not at the bottom!]

Liu Feng's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes flickered slightly.

Du Yue's eyes lit up, and she subconsciously wanted to ask Mo Jiuwei if she could really do it.
In all her life, no one has ever said that she is suited for alchemy!
"Chen Lan, take Jiuwei back with you. She seems a little sleepy," Liu Feng suddenly said.

Chen Lan knew they wanted to talk about Jiu Wei, so she didn't say much, agreed, and then left with Mo Jiu Wei in her arms.

"What exactly is going on with this little girl?"

Xu Yihan had been itching to ask for a long time.

It's already strange enough that you can hear her thoughts, but she seems to know everything and is calm and confident, just like a master.

But she's just a child!

"Sect Leader, please be patient and let me explain slowly."

Liu Feng recounted everything that had happened in the past few days. When Xu Yihan learned that all these changes in the Immortal Sect were caused by Mo Jiuwei, and that everything she said was accurate, even he was somewhat surprised.

Since his leg was crippled, he lost interest in everything, stopped cultivating, didn't want to see anyone, and even felt that living had no meaning.

Although he was the sect leader, he delegated all affairs to Liu Feng, while he himself lived in this small house on the mountaintop.

If Liu Feng hadn't been so unwilling to accept it, he would have passed the position of sect leader to him.

He didn't want to be the sect leader, not only because of his health, but also because he felt he had let down all the disciples in the sect! If he weren't so useless, how could everyone have ended up like this? But unexpectedly, everything changed, and all of them were good and promising changes.

“In that case, this is also your fate, and even the fate of our Immortal Sect,” Xu Yihan sighed. “As for Jiuwei, she is probably the reincarnation of some great being, so we must be even more careful and respectful towards her.”

“Yes, that’s natural.” Liu Feng nodded. “I wondered if she had possessed someone else’s body, but then I thought that if it were a powerful being possessing someone else’s body, they would never choose such a crippled… body.”

When the topic of disability came up, I was surprised to realize that the sect leader also had a leg problem, so I quickly skipped over it.

However, Xu Yihan's expression still darkened.

"Sect Leader, there's no need to worry. I think Jiuwei is kind-hearted and very benevolent towards everyone in our Immortal Sect. Moreover, she has an extraordinary background and is very knowledgeable. She must have a way to heal your leg," Du Yue said softly. "Didn't she say that I'm suitable to learn alchemy? Then I'll learn it. Maybe in the future I can heal your leg injury."

"That's exactly right." Liu Feng looked at Du Yue with satisfaction.

It must be said that Liu Feng was quite handsome when he was young, with a refined appearance and a gentle nature. Being looked at by him with a smile made Du Yue feel uncomfortable, and her face turned red with unease. "Uncle Liu... please stop looking at me, I feel really uncomfortable."

Xu Yihan couldn't help but laugh, while Liu Feng's face stiffened, and then he shook his head helplessly.

After Mo Jiuwei went back and took a nap, she learned about Liu Feng's arrangement that Du Yue would learn alchemy, Hu Jiu would learn talisman making, and Meng Ling would learn weapon making!
She was immediately shocked—

[No, are we really that in sync? My thoughts have coincided with theirs once again!]

It seems now that the Immortal Sect and I are indeed destined to be together.

Since they are destined to be together, she must take good care of them and make sure they don't end up in the same dire situation she was in before she arrived.

"Jiuwei, I'm going to learn alchemy now. You just lie in bed and call me if anything happens."

Du Yue carried Mo Jiuwei to her room, closed the door, and took out the alchemy furnace, some books, and two sets of basic medicinal herbs.

Learning is just a matter of time, no master? No problem, there's Mo Jiuwei here!

Du Yue first read through all the jade slips related to elixirs. Cultivators have much better memories than ordinary people, and they remember the written knowledge in books very well and rarely forget it.

As she read, she began to talk to herself—

"That's strange. Why does it say here that these two materials cannot be put in one after the other, but must be separated by a medicinal herb?"

[Because those two medicinal herbs have conflicting properties; putting them in one at the same time would cause an explosion!]

It turned out to be the case.

"Then why..."

This is naturally because...

And so, with one asking the question and the other answering internally, Du Yue soon found the answers to all her doubts!
She thought to herself: "Junior Sister Jiuwei is amazing!"

She hadn't believed she could master alchemy, but with her junior sister by her side, she now felt that she wasn't entirely without hope.
