Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

“Junior sister, take this first. This is proof that you passed the test, and it also represents your identity as an alchemist. You need to wear it on your chest at all times,” Nalan Yan said.

Ye Liuyun took the brooch, glanced at it, and then looked surprised.

"Senior sister, isn't this brooch too girly? What male disciple would wear such a brooch?" Ye Liuyun remarked.

Upon hearing this, Nalan Yan took another look at Ye Liuyun and quickly understood.

"Oh, I see. I only saw your face and thought you were a girl. Now I realize that you're going to join our Medicine Peak as a man, Junior Sister Ye." Nalan Yan smiled slightly, then quickly changed her brooch to a blue one with four leaves.

This thing is an alchemist certificate issued by the Northern Region; male alchemists receive the leaf, female alchemists receive the flower.

"That's more like it," Ye Liuyun said with a smile, taking the brooch back.

After doing all this, Nalan Yan left the assessment hall with Ye Liuyun. She wasn't the only assessor there; there were several other personal disciples as well.

Nalan Yan only needs to greet the elders inside.

After exchanging greetings, Nalan Yan led Ye Liuyun to the Medicine Peak Disciple Management Office. Under Nalan Yan's personal guidance, everything went quite smoothly. The only exception was when the disciple robes were being distributed, the deacon of the Disciple Management Office insisted on confirming Ye Liuyun's gender.

However, she was still unable to see through Ye Liuyun's disguise, and in the end, she still distributed the core male disciple's clothing, as well as all the items provided to the core disciples of Medicine Peak.

As for accommodation, unfortunately, Medicine Peak does not assign accommodation. Medicine Peak is such a large place that as long as you do not live in the medicinal fields, you can find any deserted area and dig a cave dwelling. Of course, if you do not want to live in Medicine Peak, you can live in Tianyi City.

Tianyi City has houses specially prepared for the disciples of Medicine Peak, which are free of charge.

This kind of treatment is not available to ordinary disciples of the Taishang Ganying Sect.

Yao Feng doesn't have much else to do. He doesn't need to participate in sect competitions or external wars. He only needs to refine a certain amount of pills each month as required to complete his task. The rest of the time, he can do whatever he wants, and no one will care.

Of course, if there's something important going on in the faction, they'll notify you, and you'll need to come immediately. You could say that life in the factions where these special professions are located is quite leisurely.

The miscellaneous tasks at Yaofeng are managed by the apprentices; they are not needed.

Oh, and also, every formal disciple of Medicine Peak has their own piece of spiritual field, the size of which is allocated according to their status.

Junior disciples have one mu of exclusive spiritual field, intermediate disciples have two mu, senior disciples have four mu, and core disciples have eight mu. In addition, disciples of different levels are also assigned a different number of medicine boys.

Each junior disciple is assigned ten medicine boys, intermediate disciples twenty, senior disciples forty, and core disciples one hundred.

These apprentices are essentially your subordinates, at your beck and call. Aside from not being able to kill them at will, they are basically your disciples' personal servants.

Ye Liuyun first followed Nalan Yan to check out the medicinal field that Yaofeng had assigned to him.

A few minutes later, Ye Liu and Nalan Yan arrived above a land that shimmered with seven colors. This land, sparkling in the sunlight, was spirit soil, which was very expensive to produce.

The open area in front of us has at least several hundred acres of spiritual fields, most of which are cultivated by people, and some young medicine practitioners are also taking care of them.

There are some simple houses on the edge of the medicinal field, which are where the young medicine boys live.

“Junior Sister Ye, this place is your spiritual field. You can plant any kind of medicinal herbs you want here,” Nalan Yan said with a smile.

Ye Liuyun glanced at it and saw that the spirit field was quite large, at least the size of a football field.

"This treatment is really good." Ye Liuyun nodded in satisfaction.

“Well, however, 30% of the medicinal herbs grown in this spirit field need to be handed over. They’re not for your free use. Later, go to the medicine boy management office and select 100 medicine boys to help you take care of the medicinal fields. Oh, and these 100 medicine boys will essentially be your servants,” Nalan Yan continued.

Such a large medicinal herb field definitely needs someone to manage it. It would be too troublesome to let Ye Liuyun take care of it all by himself.

After confirming the location, Ye Liuyun and Nalan Yan went to the Medicine Boy Management Office.

"Eh? Senior Sister Nalan, what brings you here?" The steward of the Medicine Boy Management Office quickly stood up and bowed.

In the Taishang Ganying Sect, real power lies with the direct disciples, who have the authority to appoint, dismiss, and deal with disciples of other ranks.

“Yes, this junior brother is Ye Liuyun, a newly recruited core disciple. I brought her here to receive the medicine apprentice,” Nalan Yan replied.

The steward was taken aback. Someone who could be personally brought here by a disciple must have an extraordinary relationship with him.

"Understood, junior brother. This is the roster of our Medicine Peak's apprentices. Take a look and see who you need." The male steward handed a roster to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun immediately picked it up and looked at it. It not only showed photos but also current cultivation levels, and the people on it all looked about fifteen or sixteen years old.

This is a rule of Medicine Peak. No matter what you looked like before, once you join Medicine Peak as a Medicine Boy, Medicine Peak requires you to take a Youth-Preserving Pill to make you look like a teenager again. Of course, this is only for appearance.

These medicine boys also varied in cultivation level, with the weakest being at the Spirit Sea Realm and the strongest at the Dao Palace Out-of-Body Realm.

This shows that having a high level of cultivation is useless here at Medicine Peak. Even if you are in the Four Extremes Secret Realm, if you are only at the level of a green-level alchemist, you can only be a medicine apprentice.

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, then asked a question.

"Senior brother, may I choose all the female medicine apprentices?"

The steward initially wanted to say no, because according to the rules, there could be a maximum of half male and half female medicine boys; they couldn't choose all male medicine boys, nor could they choose all female medicine boys.

But before he could finish speaking, Nalan Yan spoke up.

"Select one hundred female medicine apprentices for Junior Brother Ye," Nalan Yan instructed.

Once Nalan Yan spoke, the steward naturally dared not say anything more, so he quickly selected one hundred female medicine apprentices from the roster of female medicine apprentices for Ye Liuyun.

"Eh? Junior brother, I've already sent messages to these people and linked your contact information with theirs to create a communication network. You just need to use your token to notify them, and they'll immediately gather at the area you specify," the steward said with a smile.

Ye Liuyun immediately picked up his identity token and glanced at it. This token wasn't just a simple metal token; it was futuristic, resembling a mobile phone—though it wasn't a mobile phone, just that its functions were very similar.

Under Nalan Yan's guidance, Ye Liuyun quickly figured it out. There was a chat group function inside. After clicking in, the avatars with names on them were Ye Liuyun's medicine apprentices.

"Hello everyone," Ye Liuyun said to those inside.

After that sound, various other women's voices immediately followed from within the circle.

"Greetings, Lord Liuyun." The people greeted him one after another.

Ye Liuyun chatted with them briefly before asking them to gather in her medicinal herb field area.

The moment these people were assigned to Ye Liuyun's area, they were able to see Ye Liuyun's general information and the location of his medicinal fields.

After all this was settled, Ye Liuyun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, Senior Sister Nalan, if you have anything else to do, you can go back first. We can talk again when we have time. I'll treat you to dinner in Tianyi City," Ye Liuyun said to Nalan Yan with a smile.

Nalan Yan understood that Ye Liuyun needed time to deal with the medicine apprentices, and it wasn't appropriate for her to appear too familiar with Ye Liuyun, lest she arouse suspicion.

"Okay, then I'll be going now." Nalan Yan left without hesitation, quickly taking to the air and returning to the assessment hall.

As for Ye Liuyun, she first greeted the steward.

"Thank you for your help, senior brother. I'll be going now." After saying that, Ye Liuyun's body suddenly shot off the ground like a rocket and leaped into the sky.

"Holy crap, what's going on? Isn't he only at the Spirit Stream Realm? How can he fly?" The steward was so startled that he quickly looked up at the sky.

However, he could only see a black dot, because Ye Liuyun was already thousands of meters in the air.

After leaping into the air, Ye Liuyun checked the direction and then plummeted towards his medicinal herb field.

Ye Liuyun no longer needs to fly; he can jump much faster, leaping thousands of meters at a time—it's incredibly exhilarating.

"Whoosh..." Ye Liuyun let out an excited cry.

Then, Liu Su flew out of Ye Liuyun's pet pouch and caught him. However, Ye Liuyun did not ride on Liu Su. Instead, he used Liu Su's back to propel himself forward again, covering several thousand meters in a few moments, and arrived at the location of the herb field.

Ye Liuyun is acting like Sun Wukong doing somersaults; he might be leaping 108,000 miles at a time in the future.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun's apprentices were also rushing towards Ye Liuyun's medicinal field area. Figures flew rapidly through the sky, and some people even saw Ye Liuyun leaping like a rocket.

"Who is that? Why is it jumping around in the sky, and it has such a beautiful mount?" Ye Liuyun's medicine apprentices looked at the distance in astonishment until Ye Liuyun descended from the sky and landed steadily on the edge of their medicine field.

Shortly after she landed, the medicine boys also arrived at the place one after another.

Upon seeing Ye Liuyun's attire and appearance, these people were fairly certain that the boy who had been bouncing around in the sky was their master.

Although their salaries were not paid by Ye Liuyun, Ye Liuyun controlled their living space within the Taishang Ganying Sect.

Because Ye Liuyun could make them leave the Taishang Ganying Sect with just a word.

The treatment of the apprentices at Medicine Peak is very good, better than that of the formal disciples of most factions, and they also have the hope of becoming formal disciples.

"Wow, he's so beautiful! Is this the master we're supposed to serve? I thought he was a girl, but he's actually a man!" The female apprentices were all very surprised when they saw Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun just watched them. These medicine boys were all dressed in very girlish clothes, wearing pink knee-length skirts.

After Ye Liuyun notified them to assemble, it took less than half an hour for all one hundred people to arrive, and they stood in neat rows.

"Hello everyone, I am Ye Liuyun," Ye Liuyun introduced himself.

The girl also bowed to Ye Liuyun at the same time.

"Greetings, Lord Liuyun. From today onwards, we will be your medicine apprentices and maids, and we will unconditionally obey any of your orders," the girls replied in unison.

They've clearly been trained; otherwise, they wouldn't be so perfectly synchronized.

All apprentices who join Medicine Peak must undergo three months of servant training. Regardless of who you were or what your status was before, once you become an apprentice, you must be clear about your current identity.

"Please make yourselves at ease, everyone. I'm not a very serious person. I'm not used to being too serious myself," Ye Liuyun joked.

Upon hearing this, the female apprentices relaxed slightly. As they relaxed, they suddenly realized that all the apprentices here were women; there wasn't a single man among them.

"Strange, why are they all women? Aren't there any men? This Lord Liuyun looks so fair and clean, like a girl. Could he have some wicked interests?" Some of the female apprentices with complicated thoughts suddenly became worried.

Because if the master has a perverse taste, such as wanting them to serve him in bed, then they have to agree unconditionally. Of course, all of this is their own choice, and no one forces them.

Disciples of Medicine Peak have a higher status than disciples of the same level from other factions, and many female medicine apprentices are eager to marry an alchemist and become his concubine.

Not all female cultivators in the cultivation world remain chaste. After all, many times, it depends on one's own abilities. If one has the ability, one can venture out on one's own; if not, one can only choose to rely on a strong person.

Chapter 495 Rich and Willful (5000 words)

When Ye Liuyun saw the strange looks the female medicine apprentices were giving her, she knew they must have misunderstood.

Of course, these female medicine apprentices were completely mistaken. Ye Liuyun was only doing this for convenience and had no evil intentions.

To be honest, when Ye Liuyun met Long Lingyun back then, he had some unusual thoughts, but those thoughts were not love, but rather that he saw something he really wanted.

Perhaps it was because Long Lingyun was as pure as a piece of beautiful jade that Ye Liuyun had the idea of ​​taming her as a pet.

Aside from that one time when he used the beast taming technique to train Long Lingyun, Ye Liuyun could guarantee that he had absolutely no other improper thoughts towards her.

Even a demon like Long Lingyun, who is as pure and beautiful as a piece of jade, did not have any wicked thoughts. It would be even less likely that she would cause the slightest ripple to these female medicine boys in front of her.

Besides, she's not a man anymore; having Lin Aoxue as a wife is enough, having more is pointless.

"Cough cough cough... Don't worry, I'm easy to talk to, and I don't have much to do. I don't usually need you. When I don't call you, you can continue your cultivation or whatever you need to do." Ye Liuyun coughed a few times to interrupt their conversation.

Upon hearing Ye Liuyun's dry cough, the female apprentices immediately shut their mouths and stopped talking.

"Then, young master, what do you need us to do? As your medicine apprentices, we can do anything for you, including serving you in bed," a bold female medicine apprentice said without batting an eye.

These words immediately stung Ye Liuyun.

"Ahem... You've really misunderstood. I know you're wondering why I only chose female apprentices and not male ones. It's mainly because I think women are more meticulous and easier to manage," Ye Liuyun explained.

But these women misunderstood even more after hearing this.

“Young master, you don’t need to say more. We all understand. Don’t worry, we were all prepared when we became medicine apprentices. We are all virgins and still have our primordial yin, so we can cultivate with you.”

Ye Liuyun rolled her eyes upon hearing this.

He thought to himself, "Well, it turns out what I said had no positive effect at all; in fact, it only made things worse."

"Haha, let's not talk about that for now. This is such a large spiritual field, I'm thinking about what to plant," Ye Liuyun said, stroking his chin as he changed the subject.

“In reply to your question, young master, this is your private medicinal herb field. You can plant whatever you want. You don’t need to manage the field; we have all received training in tending medicinal herb fields,” another apprentice said.

Ye Liuyun nodded, then took out several packets of seeds from her person. These were collected from the medicinal herbs she grew at her residence when she was bored, and they included seeds of various grades.

"Now I'll give you your first task: plant all these seeds," Ye Liuyun instructed.

Upon seeing this, the group of apprentice herbalists quickly stepped forward, respectfully accepted the seeds, and distributed them. With a hundred people, it would be quick to plant all the seeds neatly in the herb field.

"Sisters, let's get started." A female apprentice with higher cultivation immediately called on the others to begin their work.

Ye Liuyun watched as the female medicine apprentices performed their tasks efficiently. The medicinal fields were divided into ten sections, meaning that ten people could take care of each section, which was just right.

The reason why Yaofeng assigns one hundred medicine boys to the core disciples is probably to match the amount of medicine fields. Personal disciples do not need medicine boys; they have the right to use anyone's medicine boys without needing the consent of other disciples.

In the Taishang Ganying Sect, the direct disciples are the administrators.

Ye Liuyun watched their movements, so synchronized and well-trained, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

By the way, not all disciples of Medicine Peak need medicine boys. Some people are introverted and prefer quiet, so they generally don't need medicine boys.

Furthermore, whether or not to use these spirit fields depends on the needs of the Medicine Peak disciples themselves. Some disciples don't grow medicinal herbs at all, firstly because they feel it's a waste of resources, and secondly because most alchemists are focused on alchemy and don't want to deal with anything else.

So even though Medicine Peak has thousands of apprentices, many of them are currently idle, cultivating on their own.

The reason why Yao Feng took in so many medicine apprentices was to use them as prospective disciples. After all, they were all green-level alchemists, and they could still play a remarkable role in critical moments.
