C23 The Head Disciple Was a Cook.

Jiang Su momentarily froze upon hearing his assumed name, but soon after, he was astounded to learn that Elder Chiu Yue had gone to the lengths of securing a Medical Cultivator for him!

A hush descended over the entire hall, with all eyes fixed on Jiang Su, awaiting his response.

With solemn respect, Jiang Su faced Elder Chiu Yue, knelt to the ground, pressed his palms together, and addressed him, "Master!"

"From this day forward, Jiang Hee of the Devil Sect's No.1 kitchen shall be my Head Disciple! Rise, quickly!"

Elder Chiu Yue, overcome with emotion, rose from his seat and descended to lift Jiang Su to his feet.

His efforts had finally borne fruit!

Given Jiang Su's innate gifts, he was bound to excel as a Medical Cultivator, and besides, a cultivator could pursue multiple paths simultaneously!

Under Chiu Yue's guidance, Jiang Su had the potential to master the art of the sword.

Jiang Su was destined to elevate the First Devil Sect and deliver unparalleled contributions to the Ten Devil Domains!

Witnessing this, Ye Nong shuddered, realizing that with Jiang Su as Elder Chiu Yue's Head Disciple, he could now be effortlessly dispatched.

Jiang Su, catching Ye Nong's look, allowed himself a cold, inward chuckle. He was curious to see what Elder Bai Yih had up his sleeve.

His own power might be modest, unable to challenge a Nascent Infant Stage Expert, but Elder Chiu Yue was a different story!

Wang Tian was beside himself with joy. In an instant, Jiang had transformed from a mere cook to an Inner Sect disciple, and not just any disciple, but Elder Chiu Yue's Head Disciple. All the sect's disciples would soon address him as Eldest Senior Brother!

His happiness for Jiang was genuine.

Once composed, Jiang Su addressed Elder Chiu Yue, "Master, if I may be so bold, I have a request."

"Go ahead."

"I wish to take a fellow Body Cultivator from our kitchen under my wing. I will take responsibility for his training, sparing you any concern."

Elder Chiu Yue, stroking his beard, nodded in approval. "Very well. You're still at the Qi Sensing Stage, so he can attend to your needs. I presume you're referring to the man behind you?"

No matter what Jiang Su requested, Elder Chiu Yue was always ready to grant it with pleasure.

All Jiang Su wanted was to have someone else live with him.

When Jiang gave a slight nod, Wang Tian, standing behind him, was momentarily taken aback, then ecstatic!

He would now be able to cultivate alongside Jiang Su and escape the bullying in the kitchen!

The fear of being bullied indefinitely if Jiang left had just crossed his mind.

The joy was overwhelming; he aspired to be Jiang's lifelong subordinate!

As a mere Body Cultivator, guidance from Elder Chiu Yue could propel his progress rapidly.

Jiang Su could sense Wang Tian's elation without even looking.

After exiting the hall and parting ways with Elder Chiu Yue, Wang Tian eagerly began packing both his and Jiang's belongings. Upon entering, Jiang Su discovered Little Kylin still asleep on the bed. He scooped up the creature and placed it into the storage space, where it continued to slumber.

The little creature had a fondness for sleep.

"Jiang, I'm with you for life. I was so moved earlier. I feared I'd be bullied without you around!"

Jiang Su's possessions were few, easily fitting into the storage space, whereas Wang Tian's were more substantial, including several tattered books.

Jiang Su wasn't sure if these were manuals for Body Cultivator training or something else, and he chose not to inquire.

Wang Tian's declaration made Jiang Su's eyes narrow. What to do about Ye Nong? Should he simply eliminate him?

Despite the lack of law here, where might makes right, Jiang Su was reluctant to sully his hands over someone like that.

Ye Nong had a backer, and Jiang Su's plan was to eliminate that supporter, ensuring Ye Nong would no longer dare to be so brazen.

The disparity between him and Elder Bai Yih was significant, especially in terms of their cultivation levels.

He had no idea when the next Higher Level Offering Card might surface. Moreover, he didn't want to depend on the system to confront Elder Bai Yih; he was determined to use his own power.

He could seek his revenge later!

He was eager to see the extent of his cultivation prowess.

Elder Chiu Yue resided at Sword Wing Peak, and Wang Tian, familiar with the route, shouldered a massive bundle, guiding Jiang Su along.

En route to Sword Wing Peak, Wang Tian was a chatterbox, with Jiang Su lending an ear and occasionally responding.

During this time, word that Elder Chiu Yue, the foremost of the Four Great Elders of the First Devil Sect, had accepted a young man as a disciple, was the buzz of the entire Devil Sect. The Female Ruler, elders, Inner Sect disciples, Outer Sect disciples, and even the old janitor were abuzz with the news.

Opinions varied widely. Some believed that with the Ancestral Dragon Martial Spirit and Elder Chiu Yue, a swordsmanship virtuoso, as his master, Jiang Su was destined for greatness. Others felt Jiang Su's fortune was merely in hosting the Ancestral Dragon Martial Spirit, seeing him as nothing more than a minor chef incapable of significant feats. Jealousy of Jiang Su's looks was, of course, at play among some disciples.

The news rippled beyond the Devil Sect, reaching many in the ten great Devil Sects.

Many were keen to see how this disciple named Jiang Hee would fare.

In just a moment, the name Jiang Hee had become a buzzword across all Ten Great Devil Sects.

Several Devil Cultivator notables in the Devil Domain, acquainted with Elder Chiu Yue, were taken aback by the news.

Meanwhile, Jiang Su was clueless, unsure how to navigate the current predicament.

What should have been a thoroughfare to Sword Wing Peak was now as narrow as an alley, thronged by female disciples flocking to catch a glimpse of him.

"Jiang, you're incredibly popular. I've never seen so many women before. But it's no surprise—you're good-looking and highly talented."

Jiang Su brushed off Wang Tian's praise with a resigned sigh. He regretted acquiescing to Wang Tian's request; he should've simply stuck with Elder Chiu Yue to avoid this chaos.

"Look how handsome you are! Eldest Senior Brother, notice me—I'm an Outer Sect disciple and a Medical Cultivator."

"He's truly a sight to behold. The sisters from the back of the mountain say that our Eldest Senior Brother is like a deity gracing us with his presence. I was skeptical at first, but now I see they're right—Eldest Senior Brother is incredibly handsome."

"I'd give anything to go to Sword Wing Peak and attend to Eldest Senior Brother."

Jiang Su strode forward, his face a mask of indifference. Yet, upon overhearing these remarks, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of anxiety.

Staying under the radar was not an option for him.

Had he not revealed his identity as a Medical Cultivator, their fervor would likely be even more overwhelming.

Ignoring the enticing scents and chatter around him, Jiang Su finally made his way to the base of Sword Wing Peak.

The First Devil Sect's mountains were shrouded in mist, giving the impression of a mystical realm. Atop the rugged peak stood a house, simple and unassuming—hardly the dwelling you'd expect for a Nascent Infant Stage Expert. It was more akin to the secluded abode of a reclusive master from a martial arts novel.

Jiang Su's eyes sparkled as he spotted the Foundation Stage guards stationed at Sword Wing Peak.

Sword Wing Peak wasn't a place just anyone could freely access.

Nor was it a place where just anyone could enter Elder Chiu Yue's residence.

The Outer Sect disciples might have been lively, but the Inner Sect disciples, with their hearts set on cultivation, were free from such distractions.

Soon, he would be residing here alongside Elder Chiu Yue.

The guards were visibly taken aback at the sight of Jiang Su, but they quickly composed themselves.

"Eldest Senior Brother," they greeted him with utmost respect.

Without delay, Jiang Su led Wang Tian up the path.

As they approached the modest dwelling, a striking figure emerged. The woman's eyes brightened when she saw Jiang Su.

Wang Tian's eyes widened in awe. Among the many Outer Sect female disciples below, none could compare to the beauty standing before him.

Jiang Su recognized the woman; she was the Holy Maiden of the Devil Sect, the same one who had once guided him.

He greeted her with a warm, acknowledging nod.

Shen Yunqing's cheeks flushed with color as she nervously fidgeted with the hem of her white garment, unable to meet Jiang Su's gaze.

It didn't escape Wang Tian's notice that the Holy Maiden Yunqing seemed smitten with Jiang.

Jiang truly had a magnetic allure!
