Chapter 1552: Chapter 1093: Breaking the Stone on the Chest

Elder Ye wants to recruit a disciple, and this news immediately spread throughout the Flying Heaven Hall!

It’s important to note that this Third Elder was once famous for his mastery of poison techniques, and when he was active, even the Demon Realm Alliance avoided conflict with him.

However, he was a righteous cultivator, and excessive killing was taboo.

Especially since he knew his temperament wasn’t suitable for the Slaughter Dao, he was destined not to kill too many innocent lives with poison. Hence, Ye Guan Chao’s name instilled fear in the Wilderness, where others dreaded his colorless and tasteless poisons that could kill countless demon cultivators in a short time.

But he soon disappeared, leaving only a legendary past.

In his youth, after every forty or fifty years of cultivation, Ye Guan Chao would leave the Flying Heaven Hall to slaughter demon cultivators.

He even created vacuum zones, making countless demon cultivators refuse to live in empty cities. He intended these terror attacks to chase the demon cultivators and demon beasts from the Wilderness through fear.

The result wasn’t ideal.

After a brief period of fear, greedy demon cultivators arrived, trying to refine the remaining poisons worth a fortune. Gradually, it became a lucrative business; no matter how terrifying, if there’s profit to be made, motives change.

Ye Guan Chao was frustrated but shackled by limitations.

After forty or fifty years of cultivation to offset his crimes, ready for action, he discovered impatient demon cultivators waiting to profit from the dead. He refused to freely poison and turned to assassination, trying to stir chaos in the Wilderness so the Ancient Ten Great Sects could seize the opportunity.

However, after thousands of years, Ye Guan Chao aged, and the vigor of his youth faded.

Despite years of resistance, human race cultivators still couldn’t reclaim the Wilderness, leaving him slightly disheartened and withdrawing from the world. Whenever the sect recruited disciples, he would visit the Star-Picking Tower but never found a suitable candidate.

Now, suddenly announcing plans to recruit a disciple was as rare as blooming flowers on a thousand-year-old iron tree!

The key point was when the Hall Master curiously inquired, the potential disciple hadn’t agreed yet! Making the Third Elder’s plight seem all the more pitiable.

The Flying Heaven Hall had a relatively relaxed atmosphere, with some demon cultivators from the Otherworld seeking apprenticeship here, so there was no resistance to Miss Chan Yu’s identity. Moreover, having been invited by Mr. Jiang to partake in the New Year’s celebration, she must be of pure character, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been allowed into the courtyard.

"Previously, when the sect recruited disciples, one had to climb the Flying Heaven Mountain, ascend the Star-Picking Hall, and endure various tests set by the elders to select candidates of excellent character and perseverance. Now that we reside here, how can we test them?"

"What tests? The Third Elder’s unique skills have gone unpassed for so long, finally meeting a suitable one; anyone who obstructs him would quickly face his wrath."

"Tsk tsk, the Third Elder’s temper isn’t great, even the Hall Master wouldn’t dare say much."

"I heard that girl has a unique constitution, a natural poison body that can refine toxins through ingestion, incredibly strong!"

"Wow, that’s impressive! No wonder the normally aloof Third Elder is so eager and enthusiastic to recruit a disciple..."

...

"Impressive? Very strong?" Miss Chan Yu, with poor vision but keen hearing, overheard the quiet discussion and blushed, feeling a bit at a loss.

Is this the worldview of the strong?

Even innately poisonous, they see it as an asset, rather than something to be feared or avoided.

She felt both nervous and a bit excited. Living in such an environment, where she could openly reveal her poisonous nature without being shunned or disliked, would be quite comfortable, right?

While Miss Chan Yu was still leisurely daydreaming, the impatient Ye Guan Chao was searching for Mr. Jiang throughout the courtyard. Since the young girl insisted he endorse her tutelage, he quickly sought him out as a mediator!

"Mr. Jiang! Hey, Mr. Jiang, I know you’re busy, but please, not now. I have an urgent matter and need your help!" The courtyard was vast, with numerous cultivators; he finally spotted Mr. Jiang’s figure, and with a flash, blocked him: "I’ve found a young girl with a natural poison body whom I wish to take as my disciple, but she says she will only agree if you approve."

Jiang Yuan: ???

If not for the system automatically displaying details, he wouldn’t even know who this person in front of him was.

There are simply too many people from the Ancient Ten Great Sects, and with so many elders sporting white hair and beards, busy with farming and adventures daily, there’s no time to recognize each of them.

Flying Heaven Hall’s Third Elder wants to recruit a disciple?

And it’s a young girl with a natural poison body? Who is she?

"Take your time, explain slowly." Jiang Yuan hadn’t yet processed the situation when the other grasped him urgently, "No, no, I’m in a hurry, quickly, come along!"

With the wind whistling in his ears, he was dragged to the audience.

Ye Guan Chao cleared his throat, explaining with a smile: "Look, this is the young girl. Mr. Jiang, what do you think? Could you help us form this bond?"

"Miss Chan Yu?!" Seeing her, Jiang Yuan finally realized.

This individual is a Poisonous Toad, relying on consuming toxins to cultivate, naturally a poison body.

However, the Ancient Ten Great Sects recruiting a demon cultivator as a disciple, will the honest and shy Miss Chan Yu face exclusion in the Flying Heaven Hall?

Previously, he specifically instructed Bai Yunqi to invite her over, intending to discuss relocation; if Miss Chan Yu joins the Flying Heaven Hall and stays in Divine Mountain City, it would save trouble.

As for demon cultivators in the Mist Swamp, he told Du Li to take good care of them.
