Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples-Chapter 225 - 158: Every Day Is Ordinary

Wei Cheng glared fiercely at Chen Ye, clenching his teeth so hard they creaked, his chest heaving violently, yet unable to utter a single word.

What could he say?

Say that Chen Ye was seizing power? But every word he spoke was justified, and he even cited the sect rules.

It’s all Tian Nong’s fault for leaving power in the hands of a few inexperienced people when he left.

If I had known, I would have taken the power by force, ignoring his face entirely.

Thinking of this, Wei Cheng felt a greater resentment towards Tian Nong, feeling utterly humiliated that he’d rather give it to the disciples than to him, the steward.

As if he would use arrays to make things difficult for others... cough, cough.

"Alright," Chen Ye put the jade token into the storage bag and then, as if suddenly remembering something, cupped his hands towards Wei Cheng, "Thank you, Steward Wei. Let’s go, please lead us and introduce the situation within the valley."

At this moment, the roles of host and guest had already reversed.

Wei Cheng felt a surge of blood rushing to his head, almost losing his temper on the spot.

But he ultimately held back, forcing a single word through his clenched teeth:

"... Please."

...

"Let this master guess, which girl said that the master is useless and couldn’t even enter his own territory?"

Chen Ye smiled as he tossed the jade token in his hand, although his mouth asked a question, his gaze kept sizing up the short white-furred ball.

The white-furred ball scratched her head and pinched her fingers, looking very busy, too busy to hear what the master said clearly.

Until the master coughed coolly.

Little Qing Jun immediately stood at attention: "Master, Qing Jun was wrong again!"

Chen Ye put on a stern face: "It’s good to know you’re wrong! Will you still dare to show your master a face in the future?"

"No, I won’t..."

The little girl responded aggrievedly, but took advantage of the master’s turned back to make a face at his shadow.

Bleh, bleh, bleh,

She definitely dares!

If not, what good would she be as a disciple!

Being a disciple means finding opportunities to give the master a hard time!

Wei Cheng, enduring his humiliation and anger, led Chen Ye and his group officially into the Lisong Medicine Garden.

He had intended to give Chen Ye a severe display of authority on his first day on duty, letting him know whose territory Lisong Valley truly was.

But unexpectedly, not only did the opponent not play by the rules, he also brought a mysterious "promising student" who, in just a few words, dissolved all his arrangements and even backfired, seizing control of the Valley Protection Array.

"Not to be underestimated..."

Now, Wei Cheng’s heart was indeed wary of Chen Ye.

He even thought about simply letting it be, letting him take the steward position away.

However,

Despite knowing the reason to avoid the edge, the thought of waiting ten years for the steward position only for someone to seize it hard to let go.

"Steward Chen, please look!"

Wei Cheng forced out a warm smile, leading Chen Ye and his group first to a garden within a garden, shrouded by a unique array and filled with the densest spiritual qi.

"This is our pride and joy, the Xiaguang Garden of Lisong Valley! The Glazed Flower Tea produced here is a special supply for the sect’s high-ranking members! Look at its quality, its growth, even after a cold disaster, it remains unscathed! All thanks to our meticulous care day and night!"

"Glazed Flower Tea?"

The little girl couldn’t resist peeking out from behind her master’s waist, staring at the flower field, shocked.

Such beautiful flower tea!

And it smells so good!

"Master, can Qing Jun drink Glazed Flower Tea in the future?" she couldn’t help but ask.

Before Chen Ye could speak, Steward Wei smilingly said: "It’s better not to drink it, but if you sneak a few leaves behind your master’s back, no one would notice...haha, I’m just joking, don’t take it seriously."

The other outer disciples exchanged glances, immediately understanding Steward Wei’s intention.

These Glazed Flower Tea plants can each produce only one leaf.

In the Xiaguang Garden, there are thirty-three Glazed Flower Tea plants, producing thirty-three leaves per year, a fixed amount.

If just one leaf is missing...

Just as Steward Wei was laughing heartily,

A silver-haired girl wrinkled her cute nose, looked at Steward Wei as if he were a fool: "Old man, are you trying to seduce Qing Jun into stealing?"

"Uh..."

Steward Wei’s smile froze, and he was suddenly furious.

Being bullied by Chen Ye was forgivable, but this little girl dares to bully him too?

"Is Qing Jun the child, or is the old man the child... such childish tactics, Qing Jun wouldn’t even bother using them."

The little girl was not afraid at all with her master backing her up and looked at Steward Wei disdainfully.

She’s not a fool,

Being foolish in front of the master, that’s unavoidable!

If she were too clever, the master would be worried...

Qing Jun knows how to play dumb and bide her time wisely!

Chen Ye patted Qing Jun’s head, stood in front of her and smiled, "Qing Jun, stop speaking nonsense! Although Steward Wei is virtuous and won’t argue with a girl, you still need to be polite..."

Steward Wei’s breath caught in his throat, unable to express his anger.

He really couldn’t get angry over an eight or nine-year-old child, could he?

Moreover, being called out for his inner mischief by a little girl.

Where did he have the face to continue arguing now?

He composed his face, continuing rigidly to introduce the area to Chen Ye.

Lisong Valley is divided into three different types of medicinal fields.

The most common is the ordinary fields planted with large quantities of Tier One Lower Grade spirit plants, these yield large amounts, constantly supplying the Herb Pavilions in Yunxi District and Peach Mountain District. Although low-grade, their abundance is the foundation for maintaining the sect’s influence in the outer markets.

Next, there are small, carefully cultivated plots of rare Tier One Mid and Upper Grade spirit plants, based on the uniqueness of Lisong Valley’s earth veins and environment. These fields are exclusively for the sect’s alchemists, providing materials indispensable for many high-tier pills.
