Chapter 421: 386

Wang Zijia initially planned for a small event, as a result all the small clans affiliated with White Peach Peak participated, making use of all the Peach Peak.

The entire place was filled with people!

There was hustle and bustle everywhere and by noon, there were various escape lights arriving.

"Congratulations to Martial Uncle Wang for opening his Fu Pulse!"

"Congratulations on the successful opening of the Jade Talisman lineage to Martial Uncle Wang!"

"....."

One by one, the Taoist seeds, carrying precious gifts, flocked to pay their respect.

Not only did the ones who were familiar with Wang Zijia come but the two hundred Taoist seeds of their generation nearly all arrived, surrounding Wang Zijia, who was in the celebration, showing great enthusiasm.

"True Lady Yan Qimeng who is from the Funerary Preserving Vein, gift: a stalk of third-grade Jade Lingzhi!"

Suddenly, Wang Zijia, who was receiving a crowd of people, was interrupted by a proper greeting.

He apologized to the crowd and hurriedly approached Yan Qimeng, saying, "Senior Sister Yan, you came just at the right time. Why would you bring such a precious gift, I specifically said we will have a private gathering, nothing grand!"

"It’s been a long time since a disciple from our vein has broken into the Outer Sect. This rare occurrence deserves a token of goodwill from me - besides, it’s not my money." Yan Qimeng said with a smile on her face.

Wang Zijia, who initially wanted to politely decline the gift, immediately stopped himself.

Despite not spending her money, she’s gifting as she pleases - she’s not very good at currying favor with others!

"True Man Wen Zhengzi from the Earth Spirit vein has arrived, gift: a portion of third-grade Melting Spirit Marrow!"

"Dean Gu Yuebai of the Administrative Office has arrived, gift: a third-grade Thousand Yu Haitang Tree!"

"True Man Luo Cheng from the Law Hall has arrived, gift: a piece of Gun Heart Sword Spirit Jade!"

"..."

The arrival of Yan Qimeng seemed to open a floodgate, a number of Perfected individuals kept arriving, leaving Wang Zijia, who was the host of the event, at a loss for words.

He just wanted to gather with a few familiar people, but suddenly it turned into this grandiose situation.

In just a moment, nearly a hundred Perfected individuals had arrived.

A small portion were from the Illusion realm or from inside the faction circles, that he knew at most through passing interaction.

Most of them were from the Inner Sect who he’d never seen before, all of the various large and small clansmen.

It made Wang Zijia feel as if he had forgotten a history of a hundred years of struggle in the Sect, because of this network of relationships.

Especially with the succession of gifts being sent over, it added up to hundreds of thousands of magic money!

Compared to what he personally earned, this was effortless. He was speechless, he wanted more of these types of events!

There were benefits and drawbacks. For example, due to insufficient preparation, the celebration turned into a party-like gathering.

Anyway, the grandeur of the event did not match the personal arrival of a hundred Perfected individuals.

Fortunately, since everyone was a Perfected individual, they didn’t mind these things. If it was about pomp and circumstance, White Peach Peak itself, was not really up to the mark.

A large group of Perfected individuals gathered, and some made indirect contact with Wang Zijia, subtly stating that their clan had a niece, or an elder was lacking an apprentice, and so on.

Their intentions to recruit and attract him were obvious!

If the previous visits were about factional issues, then the ones that came today mainly represented their clans, wishing to pull Wang Zijia into their circle.

Wang Zijia accepted all the gifts and played dumb.

Anyway, if he didn’t play dumb, they wouldn’t take their gifts back, right?

And the original Taoist seeds had become marginal figures. Each of them was looking at Wang Zijia, who was among the Perfected individuals, as if he were the moon surrounded by stars. They were a little dazed.

They, who grew up envying other people’s children, were experiencing for the first time what it meant to admire someone else’s child!

They could not be compared, or rather, they were no longer comparable!

As for the original main group, the small clan members from the Jade Talisman lineage were now detoured to the Peach Forest halfway up the mountain, being entertained by the Xiang family.

The ordinary celebratory gathering, in the end, turned into a grand gathering of a hundred Perfected individuals. Not to mention at a place like the White Peach Peak, but even in the entire Outer Sect Branches, this spectacle was on a grand level.

The lively celebration continued for most of the day, not beginning to disperse until the afternoon.

And the Jade Talisman lineage, for various reasons, was well-known throughout the Entire Sect. It surpassed countless garbage vein systems from the start.

After all, for low-level vein systems, once they have fame and flagship products, it’s not difficult to become popular.

Just like how a small city used to want to develop. For example, Zibo barbecue?

As long as there were people, plus the support of the Sect, the Jade Talisman lineage could completely skip the initial stage of being overlooked.

...

After sending everyone away and resolving all the chores, when the night fell and the stars were twinkling, Wang Zijia suddenly looked at Xiang Feifei next to him with a mischievous smile.

Xiang Feifei looked at the familiar smile, her face turning red. She subconsciously lowered her head, avoiding Wang Zijia’s intense gaze.

Wang Zijia, however, approached her with a grin on his face.

"No, let’s go back to the room, not in the forest."

"What are we doing in the forest?"

"You’re so annoying!"

"Ha-ha, it’s fine, anyways no one would dare to come here, the atmosphere in the peach forest is much better!"

"Ah! You’re such a bully!!!"

"Ha-ha!"

"······"

The night was their cover, the earth their bed, and the peach forest their curtain.

Deeply in love, unaware of the passing time, they reveled in the beauty of the spring-filled garden under the starry sky.

Those were the most carefree days, encountering the right person, devotedly rushing towards each other, must be the happiest life, right!

There was no need for intense passion, as long as they could reminisce the beautiful times forever!

······

The next day, as usual, Wang Zijia and several girls woke up, practiced martial arts, and ate breakfast.

"Ding-dong!"

While they were having breakfast, Wang Zijia’s identity card suddenly beeped.

The two paused in eating, and Wang Zijia immediately checked his identity card.

"Notice: Taoist Wang Zijia, please come to the main building of Inheritance Peak, Chuan Dao Tower, at ten o’clock today to meet the Lord Decheng Divine Lord and discuss the issue of constructing the Fourth Grade Fu Tower for the Jade Talisman Lineage!"

Meet with Decheng Divine Lord?

The master of Chuan Dao Tower?

I have already completed the procedures to open a small school in a eight-line city, why does the Head of Department of the Ministry of Education need to discuss it?

Looking at the notice in his hand, Wang Zijia and Xiang Feifei were both dumbfounded for a moment.

Then, Wang Zijia quickly realized that the Big Shot of his faction wanted to meet him.

Indeed, it was natural for the Big Shot of his faction to pay attention to him when other factions were trying to win him over.

Perhaps the lack of action before was because they were waiting to see Wang Zijia’s attitude?

After all, there are only two factions in the Scripture Pavilion, Preaching and Inheritance.

Preaching was the equivalent of Wanyu Sect’s Ministry of Education, mainly responsible for teaching and other related functions.

The Inheritance faction was mainly responsible for the inheritance of Tao Techniques, acquisition of secret books, etc.

Both factions seldom participate in the factional struggles of the sect, and there was no particular need for them to do so. Even if there were struggles among the various factions, they would mostly revolve around these two factions.

Therefore, both factions emphasized Fate Law and often adopted a hands-off approach.

The main reason Yan Qimeng initially tried to seize Wang Zijia was because Wang Zijia had obtained the mortician’s inheritance, which was what the Funerary Preserving Vein cared about the most.

However, later Wang Zijia chose the Tao lineage, which is why he was left alone for so long.

Now, perhaps he had finally earned the qualification for the Big Shots to take a close look at him?

With those thoughts, Wang Zijia quickly finished his bowl of Spirit Rice Porridge and said, "I’m going to Inheritance Peak!"

"Ok, don’t worry, I’ll keep an eye on the construction in the lineage!" After half a month of adaptation, Xiang Feifei was quite familiar with such matters and responded calmly.

"Thank you!" Wang Zijia finished his meal as he said this.

He hurriedly left the courtyard, threw the Blood Fiend Jade Shuttle into the sky and transformed into a blood-colored streamer, flying towards Qifeng.

······

Inheritance Peak was very high. After the cloud-clad hillside stretched up and down, it was divided into two sections - the upper and lower hills.

The upper hill was primarily part of the Inheritance faction. It had quite a sinister feel due to the presence of many morticians and several graveyards, coupled with its altitude.

From the middle of the hill down to the foot, the situation was completely reversed.

The lower hill was part of the Preaching faction, with various teaching halls and preaching squares densely covered. Many buildings extended from the foot of the hill from the outer court area, making it incredibly bustling.

It looked like a mountain city, with the upper and the lower parts forming a stark contrast - one active and the other static.

Many people unconsciously felt as though the upper section was the real Inheritance Peak, while the lower part was a well-planned highland city area, part of the Outer Court.

Including the former Wang Zijia, there were no exceptions.
