19: Master, I am so lucky to meet you.

"Ding! The host bestowed a High-Grade Heavenly Rank Magical Artifact, the Autumn Water Sword, upon a Disciple, triggering a five-thousand-fold return. The reward is a Medium Grade Spirit Treasure: Earth Nine Sword."

"The Twelve Earth Swords can be separated or combined. When combined, they form a High-Grade Spirit Treasure, second only to an Immortal Artifact. When separated into twelve, they can unleash the Sub-Wu Sword Formation, unparalleled in its lethality."

"The twelve swords correspond to the Twelve Earthly Branches. Earth Nine corresponds to Shen Jin, perfectly matching the Gengjin Sword Art."

Gu Liangyuan looked at the description of the Earth Nine Sword, feeling both joy and a silent curse.

Isn't this the exact same trick as a certain company in his previous life!

They release a series of sets, making people unable to resist collecting them!

It's fine if you don't get any specific item from the series, but especially after getting one or more, the desire to collect is infinitely magnified, making people unable to resist spending money.

Little System, do you think you can hook me with this method?

Hmph!

Well, congratulations, you guessed right!

Gu Liangyuan made up his mind that in the future, he would definitely bestow more swords upon his Disciple to collect all Twelve Earth Swords.

The System's notification continued:

"Ding! The host bestowed a Profound Rank Magical Artifact, the Purple Gold Ring, upon a Disciple, triggering an eighty-fold return. The reward is an Earth Rank Magical Artifact: Purple Cloud Ring."

"Ding! The host bestowed an Earth Rank Magical Artifact, the Auspicious Cloud Umbrella, upon a Disciple, triggering a twenty-fold return. The reward is an Earth Rank Magical Artifact: Azure Luo Umbrella."

"Ding! The host bestowed a Profound Rank Magical Artifact..."

The other six Magical Artifacts also triggered Disciple bestowal returns, but the return multiples were not large. The highest was a Heavenly Rank Magical Artifact, and that Magical Artifact was even a belly band!

These items were better than nothing for Gu Liangyuan. He just left them in the System space, thinking of giving away some useful ones when he had time, or exchanging them for other Magic Treasures, and trying again another day to see if he could trigger a high-multiplier return.

Seeing Qianqiu carefully holding these Magic Treasures, Gu Liangyuan slapped his forehead. He had forgotten to give Qianqiu a Storage Pouch.

Looking at the spatial ring in his hand, Gu Liangyuan's mind stirred. He took it off and, along with the Spirit Stones and some Talismans inside, handed them all to Qianqiu:

"It was Master who forgot. From now on, this Storage Ring is yours. Take it to store Spirit items."

Qianqiu didn't know what a spatial ring meant. She only knew that her Master thought of everything for her. She was so moved that she wanted to cry, but she refused to embarrass her Master in front of everyone. She simply suppressed her emotions:

"Thank you, Master."

"Ding! The host bestowed a Heavenly Rank Magical Artifact, the spatial ring, triggering a five-thousand-fold return. The reward is a Mustard Seed Bracelet."

"Mustard Seed Bracelet, a Medium Grade Spirit Treasure, contains a huge storage space that can hold eighteen towering mountains!"

"Ding! The host bestowed five thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones, triggering a three-fold return. The reward is fifteen thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones."

"Ding! The host bestowed Talismans..."

After a series of returns, Gu Liangyuan was satisfied. Not counting this storage bracelet, his assets had directly increased by nearly ten times.

Gu Liangyuan was satisfied, but the Disciples below, watching Gu Liangyuan bestow one treasure after another, had faces twisted with envy. Some even had bloodshot eyes!

Even some elite and Personal Disciples were breathing heavily, their spiritual power running unstably.

Utterly inhuman in his wealth!

Ordinary Core Formation Stage elite Disciples only had a few Profound Rank Magical Artifacts for self-defense.

Earth Rank Magical Artifacts were all used as trump cards!

As for Heavenly Rank Magical Artifacts, they were considered trump cards even by Nascent Soul Cultivators!

One must know that this was because they were Holy Land Disciples; Cultivators outside were even worse off.

Yet, Gu Liangyuan, with a single move, bestowed several Profound and Earth Rank Magical Artifacts, and two Heavenly Rank Magical Artifacts!

Qianqiu's talent was extraordinary, but she was only at the Qi Refinement Stage! You spoil her too much!

Not only the Disciples, but even the other Peak Masters felt that Gu Liangyuan had gone a bit too far.

Excessive doting is not good for a Disciple.

But after all, this was Forget-Love Peak's private matter, so they couldn't say anything.

They didn't speak, but Gu Liangyuan remembered them.

After Qianqiu had received all the Magical Artifacts, Gu Liangyuan pointed to Lü Qingmei and introduced her to Qianqiu: "This is your Senior Sister Lü. She is the Peak Master of Wuji Peak, and also the Sect Master of our Supreme Sacred Ground."

Hearing this, Qianqiu came before Lü Qingmei and bowed: "Greetings, Senior Sister Lü."

Lü Qingmei rose, first giving Gu Liangyuan a charming side-eye, then with a flip of her hand, she took out a light purple thin veil:

"Since Shishu (Junior Martial Uncle) is taking a Disciple, I, as the Sect Master, cannot come empty-handed."

"This Purple Cloud Veil was something I used in my early years. Although it has no rank, it can conceal one's appearance, even from the Divine Sense of Soul Transformation level beings."

"Traveling in the Cultivation World, beauty is a good thing, but sometimes it can also be a bad thing."

"Now I fear nothing, so I will bestow this Purple Cloud Veil upon Junior Sister."

Qianqiu did not accept it immediately but turned to look at Gu Liangyuan. Only after he nodded did she accept it:

"Thank you, Senior Sister."

Gu Liangyuan introduced again: "This one next to her is Senior Brother Li of Tianji Peak."

Qianqiu went to pay her respects again and received another Magical Artifact.

Soon, the Six Peak Masters were introduced one by one, and Qianqiu received six more Magical Artifacts.

Watching this scene, the Disciples below were somewhat numb. They roughly calculated that Qianqiu's current net worth was already richer than most Nascent Soul Cultivators!

Senior Grand-Uncle, do you still lack Disciples? I also want to become your Disciple!

The Disciple acceptance ceremony concluded perfectly, and the Six Peak Masters and tens of thousands of Disciples bid farewell and departed.

Gu Liangyuan felt a bit regretful. According to the Holy Land rules, such a grand ceremony only occurred for the first Disciple of a new lineage; subsequent Disciples would not receive such treatment.

Otherwise, if he could fleece them every time he accepted a Disciple, he would quickly become rich.

When the last person left Forget-Love Peak, and the mountain-protecting formation of Forget-Love Peak was reactivated, Qianqiu, who had been suppressing her emotions, could no longer control herself and threw herself into Gu Liangyuan's arms:

"Master, meeting you is truly my good fortune."

As she spoke, tears began to fall.

At first, they fell in a patter, then she began to sob uncontrollably.

It was as if she wanted to express all the grievances she had suffered over the years, and all the joy in her heart, through this heartfelt cry.

Gu Liangyuan looked at the one hundred points of infatuation above Qianqiu's head, gently stroked Qianqiu's hair, and softly said: "Cry, cry, cry it all out, and you'll feel better."

Gu Liangyuan held Qianqiu like that, and he didn't know how long Qianqiu cried, when suddenly, she fell silent.

Gu Liangyuan looked down and found that Qianqiu, due to great joy and sorrow, and mental exhaustion, had fallen asleep.

Gu Liangyuan's downward movement seemed to cause Qianqiu discomfort. Her cheek rubbed back and forth on Gu Liangyuan's chest. She found a comfortable position and continued to sleep soundly.

From time to time, she mumbled in her sleep:

"Master, why are you so good to me..."

"I have a Spiritual Root now, I can also cultivate..."

Gu Liangyuan smiled and shook his head, carrying Qianqiu back to her bed.

As the Disciples departed, everything that happened on Forget-Love Peak quickly spread throughout the entire Supreme Sacred Ground!

From then on, Gu Liangyuan completely shed the label of "great flatterer," replaced by the title of "Disciple-pampering maniac"!
