Keep the water level

“Thank you, Master!”

Shen Jinkuo held the Cultivation Technique, bowing respectfully to Zhong Qing with his head lowered.

He never expected that life’s transformation could be so swift.

In just this short while, he had been pulled back and forth between Hell and Heaven several times.

But it had to be said, Saint-Grade Cultivation Technique was truly incredibly tempting.

“Master.”

“I, Shen Jinkuo, swear upon my Dao Heart that in this life, I shall only follow Master. Should I betray this, may Heaven and Earth destroy me.”

The clever Shen Jinkuo, after a moment’s thought, knew he should immediately express his loyalty.

As for his fear of the Shen Family and that fingernail-sized bit of guilt, they had long since vanished under Zhong Qing’s threats and generous actions.

As for the Six-Winged Celestial Horse beside him, he had also pressed its head to the ground!

It began to kowtow with loud thumps!

Zhong Qing chuckled, thinking this Disciple was truly sensible!

His being so sensible saved him the trouble of implementing further control measures.

With a Dao Heart oath, he truly wasn’t afraid of this guy doing anything unfavorable.

And just at this moment, Feng Buqun smelled the Saint-Grade Cultivation Technique and flew over directly with a group of Elders.

Feng Buqun and the Elders arrived nearby, but said nothing.

Each of them stood behind Zhong Qing, pouting and looking aggrieved.

Saint-Grade Cultivation Technique! The highest Cultivation Technique Master had left for the Sect before was only semi-Saint-Grade!

How could a new Disciple arrive and he immediately pull out a Saint-Grade one?!

Master, this won’t do!

We are also your good babies, Master.

Zhong Qing turned back, stunned for a moment, then smiled faintly at Feng Buqun and the others.

He pulled out a sack from his small space with a backhand.

Whoosh! With a shake of the sack.

Dozens of scattered Saint-Grade Cultivation Techniques fell out, spilling all over the ground!

“Seventeenth beloved Disciple, you came at just the right time.”

“Take these Cultivation Techniques with you; it’s perfect for expanding the Scripture Pavilion.”

“Prepare for the Sect’s further expansion in the future!”

Zhong Qing not only understood the principle of giving a sweet after a slap, but he also understood that one must be fair!

“Alright! Alright! We’ll go right away!”

Feng Buqun nodded repeatedly, smiling so widely his mouth couldn’t close.

Master was simply a wishing well!

Whatever he wished for came true!

No one knew what good thing Master would pull out of his pocket next!

These were dozens of Saint-Grade Cultivation Techniques!

This time, they were truly rich!

He no longer cared about being dignified or not; Feng Buqun bent over and began stuffing Cultivation Techniques into his arms.

The dozen or so Phoenix Feather Sect Elders behind him acted in unison, each of them bending over!

They looked like old farmers planting rice in the fields!

“Master! Then we’ll go now!”

“We won’t disturb your bonding time with our new Junior Brother!”

With a whoosh, Feng Buqun and the Elders vanished without a trace!

And at this moment.

Shen Jinkuo, clutching a Saint-Grade Cultivation Technique in his hand, only felt dizzy.

These were Saint-Grade Cultivation Techniques, and there were dozens of them just casually handed out?!

Scripture Pavilion?!

What kind of Scripture Pavilion could hold dozens of Saint-Grade Cultivation Techniques?!

Such a large number of Saint-Grade Cultivation Techniques, even the current Shen Family might not be able to produce so many at once!

He looked up, staring blankly at Zhong Qing, unable to utter a single word.

It was a good thing he was quick-witted and expressed his loyalty in time.

So many Cultivation Techniques!

If he could read through all of them, what level would his Realm reach?!

Most importantly, with the Sect here having such a generous hand, his future development here would surely not be bad!

Once he truly grew, even if the Shen Family discovered that he had joined another’s tutelage.

He would still have the ability to protect himself!

Moreover, Master Zhong Qing could casually produce so many Saint-Grade Cultivation Techniques, so his background was probably not inferior to the Shen Family’s.

“Master… Master, can I also enter our Scripture Pavilion to read?”

Shen Jinkuo asked cautiously.

Zhong Qing looked at Shen Jinkuo and smiled faintly: “Of course you can. Just queue up and register. The Scripture Pavilion is originally for my Disciples to browse freely.”

Thump, thump, thump!

Shen Jinkuo knelt on the ground and began kowtowing to Zhong Qing.

Saint-Grade Cultivation Techniques, to read freely…

Good heavens!

Was he not dreaming?!

“Master! From now on, I am willing to go through fire and water for you!”

“From now on, I, Shen Jinkuo, will follow your footsteps closely!”

Fearing his previous attitude wasn’t enough, Shen Jinkuo reiterated his loyalty.

“Hiss!”

The Six-Winged Celestial Horse beside him let out a sharp neigh and also began kowtowing!

Watching the performance of this man and Horse, Zhong Qing smiled with great satisfaction.

“Good Disciple, I didn’t expect you to like Cultivation Techniques so much. From now on, you will be a librarian in the Scripture Pavilion.”

Zhong Qing thought for a moment, then a flash of inspiration struck him: “As for your mount, it will be assigned to guard the gate of the Scripture Pavilion.”

“It’ll be closer to you, which is good for looking out for each other.”

Currently, the treasures in his Scripture Pavilion were indeed not few.

If someone were to covet them and a few were lost, although he wouldn't care.

But they were his things, weren’t they?

Assigning a Venerable Realm expert there would be some security, and it would also match the prestige of the Scripture Pavilion.

“Master, your Disciple will not fail your trust.”

“I will certainly guard the Scripture Pavilion well.”

Although Shen Jinkuo didn’t fully understand Zhong Qing’s wording, he truly grasped Zhong Qing’s meaning.

This was to let him manage the Scripture Pavilion filled with Cultivation Techniques!

Even his Six-Winged Celestial Horse could go along with him.

This immense fortune had actually fallen upon him!

Managing a Scripture Pavilion with dozens of Saint-Grade Cultivation Techniques was something he dared not even dream of!

The Shen Family… could he have such good conditions in the Shen Family?!

The Shen Family would only exploit him!

To Hell with the Shen Family.

But then again, he was currently only in the Venerable Realm, and compared to the entire Shen Family, the difference was still too great!

And although this Sect had a profound and unfathomable expert like Master overseeing it, he still couldn’t cause trouble for Master.

If the Shen Family found out that he had directly rebelled and come here, it might bring a big problem!

Thinking of this, Shen Jinkuo’s eyes sharpened, and he spoke abruptly: “Master, I have something to tell you!”

“This time I came to the Chaotic Land precisely because of a mission from the Ancient Shen Family.”

“Now that I have joined your tutelage, I should naturally follow you wholeheartedly.”

“But to avoid causing trouble for Master, I feel that I cannot yet break ties with the Shen Family!”

“Otherwise, once it attracts a swarm of experts from the Shen Family, it might disrupt your grand scheme of lying dormant here!”

Zhong Qing nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. Those with higher Realms indeed had brighter minds.

Although he wanted more Disciples, he feared trouble even more.

“Not bad, Disciple, your thoughts are very meticulous.”

“As for the Shen Family’s mission, just continue to complete it, as long as it doesn’t delay your work as a librarian.”

Shen Jinkuo nodded heavily, “Master, rest assured! That is natural!”

“Go!”

Soon.

In this Chaotic Land, the Divine Sense of that Venerable Realm expert, which hadn’t appeared for most of the day, once again swept across the entire Chaotic Land.

Only, the source of this Divine Sense had moved from the remote sky to the Scripture Pavilion of the Phoenix Feather Sect.

Inside the Scripture Pavilion, Shen Jinkuo was flipping through Cultivation Techniques one after another.

When he truly arrived inside this Scripture Pavilion, he discovered how vast and boundless the Cultivation Techniques here were.

From Wang-level Skill, to Emperor Grade Skill, then to Venerable Realm Cultivation Technique and Saint-Grade Cultivation Technique.

As a Cultivation Technique fanatic, he flipped through them one by one.

He would read for a while, then project a Divine Sense outwards.

Then read for a while, and project another one.

When he was engrossed in reading, he would not project his Divine Sense for a long time.

When he became aware, he would then scan the Chaotic Land several times in a row with his Divine Sense!

He was working two jobs, acting as a librarian reading Cultivation Techniques while also completing the Shen Family’s surveillance mission!

He was very happy working two jobs!

…

Meanwhile, in the Secret Realm of the Yuyang Sect’s mountain gate small lake.

A azure figure was meditating cross-legged on a prayer mat.

It was Liu Yun.

Liu Yun’s elegant and noble face was now covered with a fine layer of sweat.

Currently, she had activated her aura concealment ability to its maximum, even her own breathing was involuntarily suppressed greatly.

“Why has the Divine Sense of that Six Lives Branch Family Head become so strange! It has searched the Chaotic Land several times in such a short period!”

“Has the Shen Family truly discovered my whereabouts!?”
