Chapter 108 Famous
The sun was high in the sky when the noise outside woke Chen An.
She propped herself up on the bed with one hand, sat up straight, and extended a wisp of her divine sense.
"What are they planning to do by sending so many things?"
"Since the sect leader helped Tianyuan Sect get rid of so many demonic cultivators, it's natural that some people would want to befriend him. That goes without saying."
"Where do you put the treasures they gave you?"
"Baby?" Upon hearing these two words, Chen An's fatigue vanished instantly. He immediately got up, dressed neatly, and excitedly went out.
"What treasure? Let me see it."
Qiao Sheli and Chen Mingde laughed. They raised their voices so that Chen An could hear them, and they didn't expect it to actually work.
Why did Chen An change rooms? I could clearly hear snoring coming from her original room.
"Stop laughing. Someone has given us a treasure. As the sect leader, I should set an example and take a good look at it."
Looking at Chen An's greedy appearance, Wu Siyue shook his head helplessly and handed over the list he had prepared in advance.
"Breaking through the ice to reach distant shores, presented by Ming Si Pavilion."
"Ten thousand high-grade spirit stones and nine thousand third-tier magic cores are presented by Mu Cheng."
"..."
"A top-grade Fallen Dust Sword, five catties of Pure Land, eight thousand high-grade pills, and eight thousand high-grade medicinal herbs, presented by the Zhaoning Sect."
When Chen An saw the Zhao Ning Sect, she felt a warmth in her heart, but then she saw the name of the Du Shi Sect.
"A pair of jade ruyi, a pair of glass bottles, and ten pieces of chicken-blood stone, gifted by the Dushimen."
The names sound luxurious, but they are useless things that only make the house look nicer and do nothing to help cultivators.
A closer look at the entire text reveals that the five major sects, the eight great families, and several large cities are all mentioned.
The amount of the gift is not important; what matters is that as long as they give something, it means they acknowledge the existence of the Ichiwa Sect.
"The sect has chosen a site on the site of the ancient war between gods and demons. The sect is home to the ancestors of all the powerful figures. Getting their approval would normally be a difficult task, but it went so smoothly." Qiao Sheli took the list from Chen An and began to study it carefully.
Chen An also found it strange, but he quickly figured it out: the demonic cultivators had only been repelled once, but the problem had not been completely solved.
These sects and families are full of powerful figures, but not many are truly willing to step forward.
Just then, Chen An appeared.
A newly established sect that is willing to make a name for itself by eliminating demons is naturally the best choice.
Pushing Chen An forward was simply to make Yihezong the scapegoat.
From the moment she resolved to vanquish the demon, Chen An had anticipated this day would come, and for her, it wasn't difficult to accept it all.
"If we can stop the demonic cultivators' next move, the Yihe Sect can gain a foothold on the entire continent," Chen An said in a deep voice, gazing at the distant rivers and mountains.
Chen Mingde replied with a silly grin, "Then it will become the six major sects."
Qiao Sheli pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Chen Mingde, "Yes, the six major sects, they definitely can."
Chen An has not made a statement, and the future is uncertain, but if those who support her want to, it is not impossible to give it a try.
"Master, someone has arrived. They say that the sect leader's ability to cultivate immortality is due to their family's efforts, and they will not rest until they see the sect leader."
Qiao Sheli turned around, and a little girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old ran towards them.
Upon seeing Chen An, she immediately stopped and bowed.
Qiao Sheli asked her to step back first, but did not forget to introduce the newcomer's name to everyone: "Yuan Yuan, a Heavenly Spiritual Root, has completed the Great Perfection of Meridian Opening after one year in the sect."
Seeing her proud expression, Chen An smiled and said, "I know. Go pick from the gifts that were sent and see what suits her best."
"That's more like it." Qiao Sheli nodded in satisfaction. Just as she was about to leave, she glanced at a line of text on the list, as if she remembered something, and slowly handed it to Chen An.
"Five thousand mid-grade spirit stones, presented by the Qing family."
The Qing family, there is no famous Qing family in the world. If there is, it is the Qing family of Qing Yue and Qing Xuan.
Chen An looked in the direction Yuan Yuan had left and knew who it was.
But thinking about the gift the other party had given her, she picked up the list again and read it aloud in a low voice: "Five thousand mid-grade spirit stones."
These spirit stones are indeed not much compared to those given by others, but the Qing family sold all their assets to obtain so many when Chen An left.
Ten years later, the Qing family's simple gift has unexpectedly brought back a former member of the Qing family.
Chen An couldn't help but admire Qing Yusheng, the head of the Qing family, for his ability to leverage the connections of Qing Xuan and Qing Yue.
People strive for higher goals; only by having the will to improve can one become strong. But having the will to improve is nothing special, since everyone wants to be rich and powerful.
The challenge lies in those who can seize opportunities and quickly gain momentum in a short period of time.
Chen Mingde was somewhat confused as to why Chen An and Qiao Sheli had such a strong reaction to the Qing family. When he was a rogue cultivator, he had been to many places and had never heard of the Qing family.
He felt that the man's tone was too harsh, saying that he had given Chen An the opportunity to cultivate immortality, and that he should be taught a lesson.
But Chen An never denied it from the beginning, could it really be true?
"What, there really is such a person?"
“Big idiot, isn’t it obvious?” Wu Siyue glanced at Chen Mingde. “Besides, when people mention the Qing family, they all think of Qing Yue.”
Chen Mingde roughly knew that the other party was Qingyue's parents, but now Qingyue had disappeared. How should Chen An explain this, and how should Yihezong explain this?
"Take me there, I want to see who it is."
"Okay, let's go then." Chen An didn't care and took off first.
Chen Mingde wanted Wu Siyue and Qiao Sheli to be together, but they both refused.
Wu Siyue was responsible for arranging and organizing the gifts, while Qiao Sheli, busy searching for treasures for her apprentice, didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.
Besides, in their eyes, Chen An's departure meant they were at ease.
It is rare to see a grand hall built entirely of stone, especially in a sect that has only recently been established.
At this moment, Qing Yusheng and Su Wan were sitting in the main hall where they received guests, quietly waiting for Chen An.
They didn't really care about Qingyue, especially since she had never written a letter since she began cultivating immortality.
On the contrary, Chen An's achievements surprised them somewhat.
At the time, they only regarded Chen An as a companion for Qing Xuan and her sister, thinking that once they entered the sect, they would have more people to look after them.
Now, Chen An has become the head of a sect, and his name is known throughout the world.
Chen An stood at the door with a beaming smile and called out, "I'm here."
Su Wan stood up, bowed slightly, and seeing that Qing Yusheng did not react, she gave him a look. Qing Yusheng immediately clasped his hands and said, "Congratulations, Sect Leader Chen."
Chen An strode in, saying as he went, "You are my elders, just call me Chen An." He then sat down opposite them.
Su Wan and Qing Yusheng slowly sat down, staring at Chen Mingde beside Chen An with some wariness in their eyes.
Chen Mingde was convinced that the two people opposite him were questioning him because of Qingyue's disappearance, so he tried his best to lower his posture and put on what he thought was the most peaceful smile. Unexpectedly, he still scared the other party.
I already felt guilty, and now I don't know what to say.
Chen An, unaware of the other party's intentions, was unwilling to say more and waited for the other party to speak first. However, he saw Su Wan and Qing Yusheng exchanging glances, neither of them willing to speak.
