The most secure job in Dajin

Chapter 309, Mao Sui Recommends Himself

After Hua Changxi had Yu Fu reveal the "Qihuang Body Refining Technique," he didn't inquire about anything else. Instead, he returned to the bamboo house to prepare to deal with the corpse of the three-headed Nascent Soul demon beast.

After taking the three-headed demon beast's corpse out of the Sumeru Mustard Seed, Hua Changxi, who was hesitating about where to start, suddenly remembered the No. 4 and No. 5 Qihuang Halls.

The No. 4 Qihuang Hall teaches the meridian pathways and composition of humans, animals, and plants, including anatomy, acupuncture, anesthesia, and massage.

The No. 5 Qihuang Hall teaches the decomposition, extraction, and fusion of plants, animals, and minerals.

This is the perfect place to dispose of the three demonic beast corpses. We can also bring some apprentices there to see how to dissect the demonic beast corpses and extract their blood.

"The head of the No. 4 Qihuang Hall is Zhang Tianshi, who comes from the Taisu Palace; the head of the No. 5 Qihuang Hall is the third young master of the Dong'an Prince's Mansion."

She hadn't had any conflicts with these two people. If she paid a certain price, they should let her use Qihuang Hall, right?
Thinking this, Hua Changxi sent a message to Yu Fu, asking him to come to the bamboo house to find her.

Watching the message talisman fly out, Hua Changxi's expression shifted as she recalled the telepathic communication technique she had overheard on the Star Gazing Tower.

If she knew the art of telepathy, she could see anyone on Danyuan Peak with just a telepathic message, which would be both convenient and quick.

She has too little knowledge about cultivation; she doesn't even know techniques like the sound transmission technique, which isn't considered a very high-level technique.

Knowledge is also a part of strength, and her lack of knowledge can sometimes bring her unexpected trouble and crisis.

Although Tong Yao and the other two were not as skilled as her, they knew far more and had more channels to obtain information. Sometimes, they could make up for their lack of skill by taking advantage of the information gap.

"Ultimately, it's because I've only been in contact with a very narrow circle of cultivators."

She needs to find a way to broaden her social circle.

In less than fifteen minutes, Yu Fu arrived at the bamboo house.

Hua Changxi looked surprised: "Why did you arrive so quickly this time?"

Yu Fu: "Master, I have something to report to you." As he spoke, he took out a stack of pre-orders for body-tempering medicinal bath packs.

Hua Changxi took it and looked at it, also somewhat surprised: "Why are so many people making reservations?"

Yu Fu: "That's right." He paused, "Master, the Heavenly Department has also made a reservation. The person who came is your elder brother, accompanied by Master Huo. He's in the Human Resources Department now, being received by Manager Xu. Do you want to meet him?"

Hua Changxi was silent for a moment: "This is my brother's first time visiting Danyuan Peak, we should meet him." After saying that, she stopped talking about this matter and instead brought up the matter of borrowing Qihuang Hall.

"Go to Qihuang Hall No. 4 and Qihuang Hall No. 5 later. I would like to borrow these two Qihuang Halls tonight. Ask them if they are willing."

Although Yu Fu was surprised, he did not ask why. After agreeing, he left when he saw that Hua Changxi did not give any other instructions.

As soon as he left, Hua Changxi sent a message to Zhou Shou of the Mission Hall.

"Master, you wanted to see me."

Hua Changxi handed over the pre-order to Fu Ge: "Select a group of apprentices who are familiar with and meticulous about spiritual herbs to be in charge of preparing body-tempering medicinal bath packs."

He paused, then asked, "How are Ye Lingxuan and Jiang Henian doing?"

Zhou Shou thought about it carefully: "They did their best; they completed the tasks they were assigned quite well."

Hua Changxi: "Since that person named Zhang He is a third-level spirit plant master, she should be very familiar with spirit herbs. Assign her to prepare body tempering spirit medicine packs and let her monitor the quality issues."

Zhou Shou replied, "Yes."

Now that Hua Changxi knew that Ye Lingxuan and her group were the successors of the Dan Sheng Hall, although she disliked their attempt to "reap the benefits without lifting a finger," she knew that they would not harm Dan Yuan Peak and were capable, so she decided to make good use of them.

"Wang Yangeng was assigned to cultivate spiritual herbs, and Xiao Xuan was assigned to process them. During this time, they can also guide other apprentices."

"As for Ye Lingxuan and the other alchemists, they were all assigned to the alchemy room to refine Yuanling Pills and Bigu Pills."

Zhou Shou: "Yes."

Hua Changxi added, "The development of the first level of the secret realm is about to be completed. Next, we will prepare to develop the second level of the secret realm."

"The first level of the secret realm can be participated in even by apprentices with no medical or alchemical foundation, but the second level is different. Apprentices who participate in the development of the second level of the secret realm must have a cultivation level of at least Qi Sea Realm and must have thoroughly mastered the 'Complete Collection of First-Grade Spiritual Medicines' and the 'Complete Collection of First-Grade Spiritual Medicine Processing'."

"Here's what you'll do: go and devise an assessment plan. There are only two months left until the end of the year, and Dan Yuan Peak will be holding an assessment at the end of the year. All apprentices who want to participate in the development of the second level of the secret realm must participate in the assessment and pass it." Zhou Shou carefully noted down Hua Changxi's instructions: "Don't worry, Master, I will start preparing as soon as I get back."

Hua Changxi: "Okay, that's all for today. Go ahead and get busy."

After Zhou Shou left, Hua Changxi also left the bamboo house. Instead of riding the cloud down the mountain to see Hua Dalang at the personnel department, she entered the secret realm and summoned Hua Sanlang.

"Third Brother, Eldest Brother is here. Would you like to see him?"

Hua Sanlang was delighted to hear that Hua Dalang had arrived: "Of course I want to see him. My brother is in the Demon Suppression Army and is well-informed. I've been staying on Danyuan Peak and know nothing. Now that my brother is here, he can tell me about what's happening outside."

Thus, Hua Changxi took Hua Sanlang down the mountain.

The brother and sister barely spoke along the way, and the atmosphere was somewhat quiet.

"Peak Master!"

Just as the brother and sister were about to reach the logistics department, Chu Junhao suddenly appeared and called out to Hua Changxi.

Hua Changxi looked at the seventh prince of the royal family in front of her and asked with a smile, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Chu Junhao adopted a very humble attitude: "Peak Master, the reason I am requesting an audience this time is to try to obtain an opportunity to learn alchemy."

Hua Changxi raised an eyebrow but remained silent.

Seeing that she didn't react, Chu Junhao could only continue, "I've heard that a group of apprentices will be going to Qihuang Hall to learn alchemy with the Peak Master in November. I'm not on the list, so I'm taking the liberty of waiting here to ask the Peak Master for an opportunity."

Seeing that he was quite frank, Hua Changxi asked curiously, "Chu Junhao, you are a prince. To be honest, I don't understand why you would come to Danyuan Peak to be an apprentice?"

"If you want to learn medicine or alchemy, there are plenty of people willing to teach you. Why make things difficult for yourself?"

Chu Junhao had a pretty good understanding of Hua Changxi's personality. Knowing that she didn't like beating around the bush, he simply abandoned the power struggles he had with others and chose to speak his mind directly.

"Yes, I am a prince. If I want to learn medicine and alchemy, I don't necessarily have to come to Dan Yuan Peak."

"However, Dan Yuan Peak is not just a place to learn medicine and alchemy. Joining Dan Yuan Peak also means obtaining an identity: the identity of a disciple of the Dan Sheng Hall."

"I'm not afraid of being laughed at by the Peak Master. The royal family does control a lot of resources, but there are also many royal family members. I can follow the arrangements, but such arrangements may not be what I want. If I want to walk the path I want to walk, I have to fight for it myself."

"Joining Danyuan Peak is a struggle I'm making for myself."

These words were very touching. After hearing them, Hua Sanlang's opinion of Chu Junhao, a member of the imperial family, changed to some extent, and he even felt a little sympathy for him.

Hua Changxi simply smiled faintly: "If you want to obtain the status of a disciple of the Pill Saint Hall, you can join Shenhe Peak, Qingyao Peak, or Xuanhuang Peak, right?"

“Especially Qingyao Peak and Xuanhuang Peak. With your status, if you were to become an apprentice at these two peaks, you would definitely not just be an apprentice.”

Chu Junhao laughed and said, "But among the four peaks, only Danyuan Peak has been recognized by the Divine Tree. Furthermore, Danyuan Peak is the purest, where you can really learn a lot."

While Chu Junhao's answer was sincere enough, it was not enough to impress Hua Changxi: "The list of apprentices to learn alchemy in November has selection criteria. Your absence from the list means that you are not qualified in some aspects."

"There are more and more apprentices on Danyuan Peak. If everyone wants to seize opportunities for themselves, wouldn't it be chaos?"

"If you really want to learn alchemy, then just wait. I can't guarantee anything else, but I will definitely give opportunities to those who truly want to learn alchemy and medicine."

After saying that, he prepared to go down the mountain.

Hua Sanlang felt a little emotional when he realized that Chu Junhao had already set aside his pride as a prince, yet he was still rejected by his own sister.

Jiu Niang is too cold-hearted not only to her family, but to everyone else!

Chu Junhao's expression didn't change much. Knowing that sentiment wouldn't move Hua Changxi, he changed his approach: "Peak Master, I also have some unique advantages over the other apprentices."

"If the Peak Master is willing to give me a chance, I am willing to repay him with a precious jade in return for his kindness."

These words made Hua Changxi stop in her tracks and turn to look at Chu Junhao: "Is that so?"

Seeing that Hua Changxi was interested, Chu Junhao smiled and said, "Of course, the Chu Dynasty has ruled the Great Jin for nearly a thousand years, so it must have something to show for itself. Although I am just one of many princes, I am still a prince."

Hua Changxi realized his weakness of being out of touch with the world.
