Chapter 251: So You’re a Fang Family Servant!

“Junior Brother Fang Mu, are you sure this is a pill?”

Fang Linglong, catching a glimpse of Elder Chen’s speechless expression, was the first to break the awkward silence.

Fang Mu looked at the charred, pitch-black pill in his hand, feigning a look of sudden realization and explained, “Apologies, it indeed doesn’t look like a pill. Elder Chen, Senior Sister, please give just the ti it takes to finish a cup of tea.”

Elder Chen asked instinctively, “Do you need Linglong and to step aside?”

“No need. It’s just a few small steps—really, as long as you have hands, you can do it.”

As he spoke, Fang Mu placed the large pill on the ground and began peeling off the burnt layer in front of the two of them, kneading it by hand into Body Tempering Pills.

Soon, nine Body Tempering Pills appeared in his hand.

He held them out. “Elder Chen, please evaluate these.”

Elder Chen, a seasoned alchemy expert, only needed one glance to co to a conclusion.

A flicker of surprise passed through his eyes before he smiled and said, “Three mid-grade, six low-grade—this kid’s got real talent! You actually used such a unique thod to split the pill batch.”

The most shocked was Fang Linglong. She hadn’t expected a re servant from her own royal residence to possess such pill refining skill.

But she was a clever person and naturally didn’t press Fang Mu about where he learned his alchemy.

Instead, she decided to invest so resources into nurturing him, helping him rise further in the alchemy path so that he could beco a great asset in the future.

Fang Mu said humbly, “Elder Chen overpraises. My pill refinent is still at the entry level—there’s so much more I need to learn.”

“Not bad. Humble and courteous, neither arrogant nor rash. Linglong, you’ve really brought a pleasant surprise this ti.”

The more Elder Chen looked at the young man, the more he liked him. He was already itching to take him in as a personal disciple.

Fang Linglong smiled faintly. “It was my duty, Elder.”

Elder Chen said, “Linglong, you take Xiao Mu to handle the registration process. Since you’re from the sa place, I’m sure there’s plenty to talk about.”

“Yes, Elder.”

Fang Linglong responded and then gave Fang Mu a subtle glance.

Fang Mu cupped his hands in salute to Elder Chen, then followed Fang Linglong out.

Along the way, neither of them broke the silence first. After a short while, Fang Linglong brought Fang Mu to the registration office.

She stopped and turned to Fang Mu. “Junior Brother, this is our Yunlan Sect’s Internal Affairs Hall. From today on, you are a mber of the Yunlan Sect. Everything in the past is now history—focus on your cultivation from here forward.”

Having spent these past years under soone else’s roof, Fang Mu naturally understood her underlying ssage. “Rest assured, Princess. From now on, I, Fang Mu, will follow your lead.”

“In front of others, just call Senior Sister.”

Fang Linglong was quite satisfied with Fang Mu’s answer, though she still kept up appearances.

“Yes, Senior Sister.”

Fang Mu responded, and followed her into the Internal Affairs Hall.

With Fang Linglong present, the identity token procedure went quickly.

Monts later, the two walked out together.

Fang Linglong said, “Junior Brother, it’s still early—would you like to show you around Yunlan Sect?”

“I’d be grateful, Senior Sister.”

Fang Mu lacked a sense of security. Being in a strange place made him uneasy. Having Fang Linglong guide him was sothing he was more than happy to accept.

“Wait a mont.”

As she spoke, Fang Linglong took out a whistle from her storage ring and blew it.

Before long, an immortal crane descended before them.

“Co on, Junior Brother.”

“All right.”

Once they stood firmly, the immortal crane soared into the sky.

This scene happened to be witnessed by quite a few disciples.

“Who is that guy? He actually rode the sa crane as Fairy Qinghe?”

“I just saw Fairy Qinghe helping him register as an outer sect disciple. Could he be her younger brother?”

“Possibly.”

“…”

An hour later, Fang Linglong escorted Fang Mu to Danfire Peak.

Elder Chen was one of the elders of Danfire Peak, and since Fang Mu was now his registered disciple, he would naturally reside there.

Fang Linglong said, “Junior Brother Mu, I live on Spirit Sword Peak. If you run into any trouble, co find there anyti.”

“Thank you, Senior Sister.”

Fang Mu bowed to her, then turned and headed up Danfire Peak.

Watching his retreating figure, Fang Linglong thought to herself, I wonder how far you'll go in the future?

As soon as Fang Mu arrived at Danfire Peak, he ran into soone he knew and stepped forward to greet him. “Greetings, Senior Brother Liu, and greetings to all senior brothers.”

Everyone turned to look. When they saw that it was Fang Mu, they imdiately gathered around.

“Junior Brother Fang, you seem to have a close relationship with Senior Sister Qinghe?”

A tall cultivator slung an arm around Fang Mu’s shoulder as he spoke.

Fang Linglong, the Princess of Qinghe from Dayuan, had a prominent reputation among Yunlan Sect’s inner disciples. She had even gained the nickna “Fairy Qinghe.” Privately, everyone called her that.

Fang Mu replied courteously, “Replying to Senior Brother, the princess brought here from Dayuan. We simply know each other.”

One cultivator asked instinctively, “You wouldn’t happen to be from Senior Sister Qinghe’s estate, would you?”

“I am.”

Fang Mu didn’t hide his identity. After all, he hadn’t co alone—anyone who cared to investigate could easily uncover his background. There was no need to conceal it.

As soon as the cultivator heard this, the arm resting on Fang Mu’s shoulder was swiftly withdrawn. He instinctively took a step back, maintaining distance, a deep disgust flickering in his eyes.

“I see. Then Junior Brother had best cultivate well.”

Fang Mu could easily sense the disdain, but he didn’t take it to heart. He cupped his fists and said, “Thank you for the encouragent, Senior Brother. I’ll take my leave now.”

“Mm.”

The cultivator responded flatly, as if even speaking another word to Fang Mu was a waste of breath.

After Fang Mu left, that sa cultivator sneered, “I thought that kid had so kind of background. Turns out he’s just a Fang family servant. What a joke!”

Senior Brother Liu laughed and said, “Junior Brother Jin, if you don’t like the look of him, just go teach him a lesson. No need to stew in silence.”

Junior Brother Jin replied, “Laying hands on a servant would only dirty . But don’t worry—he won’t be having any easy days on Danfire Peak.”

The others said nothing, only flashing amused grins.

Bullying newcors was customary; everyone had gone through it. What’s more, that brat Fang Mu had dared to ride a crane with Fairy Qinghe. Did he not know his place? Did he really think joining Yunlan Sect could erase his slave status, and that he could stand on equal ground with his master?

Naturally, Fang Mu had no idea he was already being targeted.

Holding his identity token, he found the on-duty steward and received the plaque for his residence and a copy of Danfire Peak’s introductory cultivation technique.

After thanking the steward, he turned and headed for his assigned quarters.

At the sa ti, news of Fang Mu’s true identity began to spread among the outer sect disciples of Danfire Peak…
