Chapter 997: Visiting the Main Peak

Not knowing that two elders were fighting over the Teleportation Talisman, the Moon Goddess had given away, she and her disciple, Si Meili had teleported to the Main Peak where the two principals, Wu Yao and Wu Zhou were waiting together with the Immortal Sun Emperor who had informed them that their Holy Saintess had accepted a disciple to inherit her mantle as the divine doctor. As people who had sought treatment from the Moon Goddess knew that her real identity is that of the Divine Doctor. This is someone who has inherited all the knowledge of medicine and can even cure an immortal if one appeared before her.

Now that she had chosen a disciple who would follow her path, the two principals, Wu Yao and Wu Zhou were the most delighted. Having another person who will have the same capabilities as the divine doctor, is a miracle for this world. This something they must never forget and something they all wanted to exist. When Yue Xuexia had teleported to the main peak, she and her disciple were welcomed by the elders with a smile. They immediately greeted their grand disciple and pulled her over to give her some welcoming gifts.

Principal Wu Yao welcomed Si Meili with an elderly smile, "Is this my grand disciple? Child, what is your name?"

"M-My name is... is Si Meili." The young lady had already been shy by nature. Now faced by two figures that she only met during school events, she was overwhelmed and didn’t know what to say.

Principal Wu Zhou said, "Nice name. Come with us inside. We had prepared a welcoming feast for you. You can call me Grand Martial Uncle Zhou, Mei’er!"

"Y-Yes, Grand Martial Uncle Zhou!" said Si Meili.

Meanwhile Yue Xuexia who was left behind stared at the two elders that looked like bad old men who were scaring a child. Yue Xuexia didn’t know whether to stop them or let her good disciple get used to them. After all, those two are indeed elders that like to pamper the young. In the end, she let them be. Before she can enter the house, the sound of the system’s voice echoes in her ears as usual.

[Two spots had been recorded for sign-in. First Location is the Medicine Peak of the Black Cloud Academy. The second location is the Main Peak of the Black Cloud Academy.]

[It is detected that the host now has some time to speak with the system. Would you like to sign in to the two recorded locations?]

The Moon Goddess thought of something and couldn’t help but ask the system. She asked, "Did you not speak while I was at the Medicine Peak because I was having a conversation with someone?"

[Answering to the host, Yes! To avoid mistaking the host for having a mental illness, the system had chosen to just record the location. However, signing in for each location can only be done once a day.]

The lips of the Holy Saintess twitched when she heard the words of the system which she didn’t know if it was insulting her or not. What does it mean by having a mental illness? She definitely doesn’t have one!

Yue Xuexia chose to ignore it, but Shen Jueyang who was just approaching her, heard their conversation and laughed silently. In the end, he got a glare from her.

Hmp!

"I want to sign in to two locations, Qiuqiu!" said the Moon Goddess.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for signing in at Medicine Peak of the Black Cloud Academy. You have been rewarded with an immortal herb seed pack x 5.]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for signing in at the Main Peak of the Black Cloud Academy. You have been rewarded with Ancient Gu Farming Techniques.]

The last reward left the Moon Goddess and Immortal Sun Emperor stunned. Ancient Gu is something only a Miao Tribe who excel on farming. This is their unique heritage and each of their Gu had various uses. It can be harmful or useful. Moreover, the rare the Gu is the more precious and harder for one to farm. Life Gu is one of the rarest kinds of Gu the Miao Tribe possessed and it was said only their direct bloodline knows how to create this special Gu. Moreover, such a special thing can only be given to one person in their whole life. This means the Life Gu in Principal Wu Yao’s possession had its own story.

More interested in the Ancient Gu, Yue Xuexia had thrown the Immortal Herb Seed pack in her system inventory. She and Shen Jueyang focused on the Ancient Book about Gu Farming the system had given the Moon Goddess. They immediately found the page about Life Gu.

Yue Xuexia read a paragraph in it, "Life Gu can only be made with the Heart Blood Essence and Half of the lifespan of its creator. It feeds on vitality filled materials and is capable of extending one’s life. It’s directly connected to the life of its creator. As long as the Life Gu isn’t dead, it can keep its creator and the one who had signed a contract with it forever. Two people sharing one life."

"So the one who gave that Life Gu is the old man’s lover?" Shen Jueyang asked after leaning over to read the book as well.

The Moon Goddess thought of something and frowned, "No wonder Master lasted for years with that poison in his body. Someone is extending his life for him. Life Gu is a way of sharing life. I should check on that caterpillar again. Since the other side is willing to give up half of their lifespan and their heart blood essence, he is worthy to be respected. There should be a way to sense the other party through the bug. I need to read more."

"Alright, you can continue reading. I will pull you into the house," The Immortal Sun Emperor said as he grabbed her hand and gently pulled her over guiding her on the way even her attention was in the book in her hands.

—

Inside the house, the principals had been doting their new grand disciple with gifts and praises when they heard that her master, Yue Xuexia, had mentioned that she possessed an unawakened physique which is called the Myriad Medicine God’s Physique, the two principals laughed proudly.

"Hahaha~ Lao Fan didn’t know what kind of treasure he had lost!" said Principal Wu Yao.

Principal Wu Zhou said, "Is it because it was unawakened that no one detected Xiao Mei’s special physique?"

"Maybe, some physique is impossible to detect as long as it is unawakened. Xue’er must have noticed it with her skills as the Divine Doctor. Nothing can be hidden from her," said Wu Yao.

When the two old men finally recalled their forgotten disciple, they looked around only to see the Moon Goddess reading while seated in the receiving area. The Immortal Sun Emperor fed her some fruits he had peeled himself with a happy smile.

"Meh~ this brat likes to take advantage of my disciple every time he gets an opportunity!" Wu Yao said.

Looking at his moody elder brother, Wu Zhou can only say, "Isn’t it only treating Xue’er like a queen? Nothing is wrong with it. He is happy, let him be."

"Fine!"

The three of them join the two at the receiving hall and ask what they planned to do with their little disciple.

Yue Xuexia said, "Master, the Hong Brothers are here. They are at my peak resting. There seems to be news about the contract. I will make some preparation to awaken Mei’er’s physique and while I am in class, Juyang will teach her how to control fire properly."

The moment the contract was mentioned, the expression of the two principals turned especially serious. This is the contract which they didn’t sign themselves yet ended up under their names because someone else had stolen their blood essences.

Principal Wu Zhou asked, "Are they at your peak?"

The Holy Saintess nodded her head and said, "They are a bit injured so I can only let them rest at Yueguang Peak. It seems something had happened at the Blood Sea Tribe."

"Okay. You handle your things. I will see and talk to them about the situation on that side. Brother, are you coming?" Wu Zhou asked.

Wu Yao, whose face was as serious as Wu Zhou, nodded his head and said, "Of course, this is something that involves the whole academy. I need to know it as well."

Then the two elders smiled at Si Meili before bidding her farewell. Wu Yao and Wu Zhou head to the Yueguang Peak to see the Hong Brother. Left alone at the Main Peak, Yue Xuexia noticed that it is almost time for her to start her lessons in alchemy.

The Holy Saintess said, "It’s time for my alchemy class. Mei’er, study well under Martial Uncle Shen, okay? He will teach you how to control that Heavenly Fire he had gifted you."

"Okay, Master. Please be busy. I will stay here with Martial Uncle Shen!" Si Meili said while smiling.

Yue Xuexia nodded at her disciple and looked at Shen Jueyang. She said, "Jueyang, don’t bully my disciple."

"You know I won’t~" said Shen Jueyang.
