Chapter 15: Top-Tier Wisdom Root, Zhao Ling’er

“Yes.” After listening to Ye Yang’s instructions, Zhao Qingzhi immediately nodded, indicating his understanding.

“You can bind it now.” Ye Yang looked at Zhao Qingzhi.

“Yes.”

Hearing Ye Yang’s words, Zhao Qingzhi didn’t hesitate. He bit his index finger, letting a drop of blood fall onto the task jade token. The moment the blood touched the token, Zhao Qingzhi instantly felt a unique connection form between himself and the token.

It was as if he could sense its contents at any time.

Realizing this, Zhao Qingzhi began to focus and sense it carefully.

Name: Zhao Qingzhi

Wisdom Root: High-Grade Wisdom Root

Status: Kunlun Low-Level Member

Level Description: Kunlun member levels are divided into Low, Medium, High, and Top-Tier. Each level allows access to different exchangeable items. Points can be spent to upgrade one’s level, and higher levels unlock higher-grade items.

Current Points: Zero

Low-Level Member Exchangeable Items:

Name: Rejuvenation Pill (500 points)

Effect: Upon consumption, even those on the brink of death can extend their lifespan by ten years, and all hidden injuries will be healed.

Name: Bone-Strengthening Pill (500 points)

Effect: Upon consumption, it transforms the body, granting strength ranging from 100 to 1,000 pounds (effect increases with higher wisdom root grade).

…

Current Tasks:

Task One: Collect Various Spiritual Herbs on Earth

Description: Due to Kunlun’s long closure, its stored resources have been depleted. New resources must be gathered to refine spiritual pills and miraculous medicines to replenish Kunlun’s exchange treasury. Submitting one spiritual herb meeting Kunlun’s criteria grants 500 to 3,000 points. This task is ongoing.

Task Two: Recruit Talent

Description: With Kunlun’s reopening, talented individuals must be recruited. Recruiting one person meeting Kunlun’s criteria grants 500 to 3,000 points. This task is ongoing.

…

As Zhao Qingzhi focused, a wealth of information appeared in his mind.

Seeing this information materialize directly in his mind, Zhao Qingzhi felt a surge of excitement. As long as he earned points and raised his member level, he could truly transcend the mortal realm and step into the extraordinary.

“Collecting spiritual herbs … The main body of the leaf the Medicine Family gave me must be a qualifying spiritual herb. I need to get that herb first and exchange it for points. Even the minimum 500 Kunlun points can be used to redeem a Rejuvenation Pill, granting ten years of extended life and healing all hidden injuries.

“That’s far superior to directly consuming the Medicine Family’s divine herb. They claim it can extend life by three to ten years, but in reality, three years is probably the maximum, and ten years is just exaggerated boasting.

“And the task to recruit talent—I know some old friends with exceptional skills and abilities. They likely have wisdom roots as well. Recommending them to join Kunlun could earn me points, and with such a grand opportunity, they’d owe me favors, like sharing a portion of their future points with me.”

Zhao Qingzhi pondered the tasks in his mind.

“Hm?” While Zhao Qingzhi was deep in thought, he suddenly felt the identity jade token in his hand grow warm.

Upon closer inspection, he realized it was the token reacting to the presence of someone with a wisdom root. Discovering this, Zhao Qingzhi’s face lit up with joy.

Everyone here, aside from Mr. Ye, was a member of the Zhao Family.

The token’s reaction couldn’t possibly come from Mr. Ye. That meant it had to be from one of his Zhao Family members. A Zhao Family member with a wisdom root? This was practically handing him points on a silver platter.

If it were a Zhao Family member outside this room, he might not have been so confident about free points. After all, the Zhao Family had grown vast, and there were plenty of incapable members.

Even if an incapable person had a wisdom root, he wouldn’t dare recommend them to Kunlun. But the Zhao Family members in this room were different.

Each was a true direct descendant, each with notable abilities.

He was largely confident that any Zhao Family member in this room with a wisdom root would meet Kunlun’s criteria.

Soon, Zhao Qingzhi began scanning the Zhao Family members in front of him with the identity jade token.

His eldest son, Zhao Wuji—not him.

His second son, Zhao Xuankun—not him.

…

A few seconds later, Zhao Qingzhi’s gaze landed on Zhao Ling’er.

The moment it did, a message appeared in his mind: “Detected a talent with a top-tier wisdom root, meeting the criteria for recruitment into Kunlun.”

“Top-tier wisdom root?”

Seeing this message, Zhao Qingzhi’s gaze toward Zhao Ling’er immediately changed.

Zhao Ling’er, kneeling on the floor, noticed Zhao Qingzhi drip blood on the jade token and then suddenly look at her. Her beautiful eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of nervousness.

“Mr. Ye.”

Ignoring Zhao Ling’er, Zhao Qingzhi turned his gaze to Ye Yang.

“What is it? Have you familiarized yourself with the identity jade token?” Ye Yang looked at Zhao Qingzhi with a smile.

“Yes, it’s like a mythical immortal artifact. By the way, Mr. Ye, I discovered something through the identity jade token.” Zhao Qingzhi looked at Ye Yang with utmost respect, his gaze shifting to Zhao Ling’er.

“You want to ask if she has a wisdom root and can be recruited into Kunlun, right?” Ye Yang smiled at Zhao Qingzhi.

“I have a wisdom root?” The moment Ye Yang spoke, Zhao Ling’er, still kneeling, froze, her expression tightening. Then, a trace of joy appeared.

She had the same wisdom root as her grandfather—did that mean she could also join the mythical organization Kunlun?

The other Zhao Family members were equally thrilled. An organization like Kunlun was bound to become the true ruler of the world in the future.

In the future, a force’s status wouldn’t be judged by wealth or influence as it was now. The only measure would be one’s standing in Kunlun.

If the Zhao Family could have another member join Kunlun, having two Kunlun members would grant them significant influence in the organization’s future.

“It seems I asked a redundant question. The identity jade tokens were created by you, Mr. Ye. If I can sense my granddaughter’s wisdom root through the token, how could you not know? Mr. Ye, my granddaughter has a top-tier wisdom root, even higher than mine. Is she qualified to join Kunlun?”

Zhao Qingzhi looked at Ye Yang and asked earnestly.
