Chapter 1028: Chapter 1027: Benefits

Two months later, the group from the Spirit Realm finally made their safe return to the Campbell Sect. One must know that their departure had taken only a little over half a month, but the return journey had consumed two months of time.

Upon their return, the upper echelons were summoned to the core Jimmie Palace for questioning, while the minor cultivators returned to their respective colleges.

Yusuf Zuck resided in the tenth courtyard of the upper quarters of the Alchemy College, and this upper quarter was also a place with exceptional Feng Shui. After all, as a Closed-door Disciple of the college dean, his status and identity allowed him to freely roam throughout the entire Alchemy College.

"It’s really beautiful, really luxurious, really big!" At this moment, Rafael Case comfortably sat in the grand hall of the tenth courtyard. It was his first visit here. Although the tenth courtyard had been assigned to Yusuf Zuck for some time, Yusuf hadn’t come to live there, so Rafael had not dared to come over either.

Now that Yusuf Zuck had returned, it was natural for Rafael to stay here with him.

"I’m not really interested in big houses," Yusuf Zuck said as he gently patted the armrest of his chair. Now that he was back, should he plan on entering the Seed Hall?

However, for someone at the Grade One Golden Immortal level to enter the Seed Hall was a bit too conspicuous, and besides, entering the Seed Hall required passing an assessment.

When the time came, as long as he displayed his true strength, entry into the Seed Hall wouldn’t be difficult. But after revealing his true capabilities, he would definitely be in big trouble. It was foreseeable that some might even suspect him in regards to Delilah Ferguson’s death, and Dillon Meskill would certainly suppress him, maybe even come after his life!

Even though he was a Grade One Golden Immortal now, in Dillon Meskill’s eyes, he was still nothing but trash, unworthy of his attention, for Dillon would consider him not a match worth bothering about, lacking any sense of achievement!

But once he exhibited strength beyond everyone’s expectations, he would undoubtedly become a thorn in Dillon Meskill’s side. If then someone used Delilah Ferguson’s case against him, his plan to stay undercover in the Campbell Sect would be ruined.

"I’ll wait a bit longer, wait until after the three-year battle between humans and demons. By then, if I’ve advanced to the Grade Nine Immortal or achieved Golden Immortal status, entering the Seed Hall won’t raise suspicions. But for now, no, I need to keep a low profile and make everyone forget about me!"

"Being mediocre might not be a bad way to protect myself," Yusuf Zuck mused, glancing at Rafael. That fellow was making a fool of himself, acting like a simpleton, so no one took him seriously, because bullying him brought no sense of accomplishment.

Yet, Rafael always remained safe and sound, which was his own way of protecting himself.

"What are you thinking about? Do you really want to come with me and sneak a peek at the female disciples of the Talisman Way College bathing? Let me tell you, there’s not much to see with the disciples, but there’s a talisman master at the Talisman Way College, and that woman is a real beauty. You’ve seen her before when I first brought you back to the sect, the one we met during registration, that Madam Feng!"

"I remember now, but she’s not all that," Yusuf Zuck recalled the Madam Feng in question, a woman around thirty, quite voluptuous, but only average in looks.

"Compared to your beauties, of course she falls short, but with women, it’s not just about the figure or the face, it’s about the... ’instrument.’ I’ve heard Madam Feng possesses a ’precious instrument’!" Rafael licked his lips as he spoke.

"I’ll smack you to death!" Yusuf Zuck walked over to Rafael, lifted him up, and kicked him out.

This old bastard was far too indecent, talking about precious instruments on the body—seriously evil.

"Get out, go and find out what has happened in the sect over this past year," Yusuf Zuck cursed in anger.

"Playing the prude, what are you pretending for, who doesn’t know who here..." Rafael pouted as he left, continuously berating Yusuf Zuck for his pretense.

This guy had no respect for seniority; although he secretly called him ’Master’ and tried to ingratiate and please him, he was unconventional and acted crazy, which was exasperating yet amusing!

Yusuf Zuck couldn’t be bothered with him, but just as he was about to look around his big house, he suddenly heard Rafael shouting from outside, "Greetings, Master, greetings to the Chief Steward!"

Yusuf Zuck heard the news, it was the Sect Master and Ledger Vaughn, the head manager, who had come!

"Haha, is Dail here?" the boisterous laughter of Manager Ledger Vaughn echoed in!

"Yes, yes." Yusuf Zuck immediately went to greet them, repeatedly bowing as he said, "I’ve seen the eldest senior brother, I’ve seen the honorable manager!"

"Let’s talk inside the house." Ledger Vaughn nodded slightly.

The trio entered the main hall, with Ledger Vaughn sitting in the seat of honor, Yusuf Zuck and the Sect Master to his left and right, respectively, while Rafael Case brought over tea and pastries.

"Junior Ten, you really should thank Manager Ledger Vaughn this time. The manager has secured quite a few benefits for you!" the Sect Master said with a smile at that moment.

Manager Ledger Vaughn waved his hand with a smile: "It’s nothing much. You and Case are filial and know how to conduct yourselves. As a manager, it’s natural that I look out for your welfare!"

"Here’s the situation," the Sect Master nodded and said: "During the recent Sect congress, the manager spoke highly of you and Case. Although you joined the sect late, you have become the esteemed teacher’s closed-door disciple. With your outstanding talent in alchemy, even Aiden Wilkinson said you have an exceptional nature. Then the manager suggested that more resources be allocated to you, and both the Sect Master and the members of the Elder’s Council agreed!"

"As for the resource allocation, it mainly includes the following," the Sect Master proceeded to inform in place of Ledger Vaughn: "Within the inner gate, you can attend lectures by any teacher at any time!"

"All the top-secret areas within the inner gate are freely accessible to you, and you can enter or leave at any time."

"In terms of elixirs, apart from the Upper Garden, you may pick any medicinal herbs from the Middle and Lower Gardens of the Alchemy College. Of course, records must be kept. Moreover, you may enter the Heavenheart Jungle once every year to select an elemental spirit for use in alchemy."

"You may recruit no more than twenty menial workers, but you cannot take disciples!"

"Additionally, you have become a reserve talent for the Seed Hall, similar to a recorded disciple. This means you are a reserve, not an official candidate of the Seed Hall, but you are allowed to cultivate within the Seed Hall."

"Of course, you can only use the resources of the Earth tier within Seed Hall, and you will have to pay a substantial amount of Immortal Spirit Stones. This is an incredible benefit for you. You must know, even I can’t use the resources of Seed Hall freely, even if I had the Immortal Spirit Stones."

"Lastly, your monthly allotment is the same as mine, that is, at the deputy director level. And I have just withdrawn all your monthly allowances from the time you joined the sect until now, totaling one million Lower Grade Immortal Spirit Stones."

"Well, that’s about it, Dail. This is the sect showing its appreciation for your talent, hence the exceptional treatment. Of course, it is also thanks to the manager’s operations, otherwise, not even other talents would receive such high-level treatment!"

"Dail, what weapon or Magic Treasures do you specialize in using?" Manager Ledger Vaughn asked with a chuckle.

Yusuf Zuck thought for a moment and said, "Swords, I guess."

"Good, I have an Intermediate Immortal Sword here. This sword can be upgraded after forging, and I am now giving it to you as a gift." Manager Ledger Vaughn really meant business, not only had he secured so many benefits for him, but he also had an extra sword to give!

"Teacher, honorable manager, what about me? Don’t I get any benefits?" Rafael Case stood to the side, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Manager Ledger Vaughn couldn’t help but laugh, while the Sect Master looked on speechlessly and jokingly scolded: "I knew you would ask, so you can attend lectures within the inner gate or enter the inner gate’s secret areas for cultivation, and that’s all."
