“I didn’t
say I won’t join, I just said I don’t have any plans as of right now!”
“But..”
Cheng Zheng Yuan frowned and said, “Big sister, the top four powers will be
recruiting two years from now. If you don’t enter the selection pool then, you
probably won’t get another chance!”
Two years
later, Cheng Xiao Xiao would be 18 years old. The top four powers did not
recruit anyone above the age of 18. Once you were over 18, regardless of how
talented you were, they would not accept you. This rule had been in place for
tens and thousands of years; there had been no exceptions.
No wanting
to continue the topic, Cheng Xiao Xiao quickly changed the topic.
The two of
them chatted for a while longer. When he was taking off, Cheng Xiao Xiao handed
her brother a snow ginseng and told him only to use when he had reached the
bottleneck; that way he would be able to breakthrough and it wouldn’t cause any
damages.
Cheng Zheng
Yuan left happily with the snow ginseng.
“Young
Mistress, how come you’d allow him to join a sect?” asked little Yuteng,
baffled.
From Cheng
Xiao Xiao’s perspective, as the dimension transform, her family’s cultivation
level would increase. That wouldn’t be a problem at all, which was why little
Yuteng was baffled.
Cheng Xiao
Xiao replied, “Everybody has their own path; I don’t want to confine him, nor
do I want others to confine me. If this is the path he wanted to choose, I want
him to go for it. If he succeed, he had earned it himself; if he failed, at
least he had given it his best and wouldn’t have any regret.
“If we don’t
let him leave, it doesn’t matter how fast he could go up in is cultivation
level, he’ll never be truly happy. Not to mention, one must leave one’s nest
and experience the real world before one would grow up!”
“Young
Mistress, when had you achieved such enlightenment? You sound like an old
monster that had been around for several hundred of years!” shouted little
Yuteng from inside the dimension.
“You
are the old monster!” said Cheng Xiao Xiao as she rolled her eyes. “You know
these kind of things, I might not have pork before, but at least I have seen
pigs run.”
“Young
Mistress, you are so right. We can only help them so much; at the end, they
will need to leave the nest and follow their own paths. Not to mention that
each person has their own fate and will grow up at different rate!”
“Okay,
enough of this chitchatting; I remember you mentioned something about alchemy
yesterday, do you think we can really do that?”
“Young
Mistress, I sort of feel that we might have that capability, but not quite yet.
I think our dimension need to level up some more for that.”
“Ugh, are we
back to the level issue again?”
Sect of
Huashan1, in some far away valley!
Inside the
residential hall of the leader sat a few high level officials, all of them
strong cultivators above the level of martial spiritualist. They were the
elitists of Huashan Sect.
Today, they
were all summoned there by the leader of the sect, and none of them had any
idea as to the purpose of the meeting.
Sitting at
the leader spot was a middle-aged man around 40. He didn’t say a word, but in
his hand he held a leader water bottle; one that looked like you could buy at
just about any shops outside. Yet, the leader of Huashan Sect held onto it like
it was a priceless treasure, refusing to put it down.
Nobody
understood what was so precious about that generic water bottle.
Nobody in
the hall dare utter a word; after all, nobody wanted to challenge the authority
of their leader.
“Fetch me 20
cups!”

Technically can be translated to “Mount Hua”, but it doesn’t have a good ring
to it, so going with Chinese pronunciation of “Huashan”.
