My Sexy CEO Wife-Chapter 256 - 255: Odd Jobs Worker

A luxurious flying ship slowly descended upon the mountaintop.

The ship's door opened, and more than two hundred people emerged from inside, all new disciples.

"Is this Tianyang Sect? It looks so imposing!"

"It's even more imposing than I imagined."

"Just thinking about cultivating immortality here in the future fills me with indescribable excitement."

...

Over two hundred people huddled together, whispering and discussing amongst themselves.

"Silence," commanded the envoy of the Tianyang Sect as he descended from the flying ship, his expression stern, "No loud noises!"

After being reprimanded, the two hundred plus individuals immediately closed their mouths.

"From today onwards, you are Tianyang Sect disciples," stated the sect envoy. "Tianyang Sect disciples are of three types: ordinary disciples, inner sect disciples, and elite disciples.

Right now, you are ordinary disciples." He paused before continuing, "Once you reach the Qi Gathering Stage, you'll be promoted to inner sect disciples, and the cultivation resources distributed to you each month will increase several times.

When you reach the Fasting Stage, you'll be promoted to elite disciples, the cultivation resources will increase by more than tenfold, and you'll also have your own independent cave dwelling."

"What if someone reaches the Golden Core Stage?" someone asked.

"You are quite forward-thinking," snorted the sect envoy. "After entering the Golden Core Stage, you can become an elder."

An elder? Gao Fei's heart stirred. One could become an elder with Golden Core Realm Cultivation? Then what cultivation did the sect leader have? Nascent Soul Stage? What was the highest level of cultivation in Tianyang Sect?

Did they have any cultivators at the Tribulation Crossing Stage? In a flash, many thoughts raced through Gao Fei's mind.

"My name is Miao Zheng, currently an elite disciple of this sect. You were recruited by me, so there is a connection between us. If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can go find me in the back mountain. Of course, I will only help you with minor troubles, not major ones," the sect envoy explained.

"Bringing you here was my task, and now that it's complete, you must diligently cultivate and strive to become elite disciples as soon as possible." Having given these instructions, Miao Zheng turned to leave: "Stay put and wait here. Someone will come to arrange your accommodations soon."

"So the envoy's name is Miao Zheng. What an elegant name," someone remarked.

"Elite disciple... Does that mean envoy Miao Zheng is at the Inedia Stage of cultivation?"

"I wonder when we will be able to become elite disciples, have our own cave dwellings, and travel with swords. How carefree and pleasant that would be."

"Let's work hard. I believe that as long as we diligently cultivate, we will become elite disciples sooner or later."

...

As everyone was engaging in discussions, a young man approached from the distance. He had a fair complexion, was clean-shaven, and had delicate features—just the type women adore.

"Hello everyone, my name is Pang Xiaolei, and I've just been promoted to inner sect disciple," the young man said softly. "Master Brother Miao Zheng has already told you, right? There are three kinds of disciples: ordinary disciples, inner sect disciples, and finally, elite disciples. You have just entered the sect and have no cultivation, so you can only be ordinary disciples.

Once you have cultivated to the Qi Gathering Stage, you can become inner sect disciples." After pausing, Pang Xiaolei resumed, "Follow me to register your names and receive your waist tokens. Then I will arrange your accommodations." Having said this, Pang Xiaolei turned and left.

Gao Fei and the others quickly followed.

Pang Xiaolei led everyone into an attic: "Line up in order, and call out your name, age, and place of origin one by one. No disorder allowed."

Over two hundred people formed a line to register in sequence.

It took more than an hour to register everyone's information. Then came the distribution of waist tokens—made of wood, about the size of a baby's fist, and very light. The front was inscribed with the words 'ordinary disciple,' and the back with 'Tianyang Sect.'

"Keep your waist tokens safe, and make sure not to lose them," Pang Xiaolei warned. "Losing your token will result in punishment."

Next was the arrangement of accommodations. Over two hundred people were to live in a large courtyard, six to a room, sharing a kitchen and a toilet—the living conditions were poor.

"If you want better accommodations, you must work hard in your cultivation. Once you become an inner sect disciple, your living conditions will greatly improve. And if you're lucky enough to become an elite disciple, you can have a private cave dwelling," Pang Xiaolei said emotionlessly.

"I started as an ordinary disciple, and I deeply understand the hardship and difficulty of being one." He paused, then added, "Let me share something heartfelt with you all. Tianyang Sect has a clear hierarchy. Ordinary disciples are laborers, doing the most tiring work, eating the worst food, and living in the worst conditions.

Some work hard their entire lives and still cannot become inner sect disciples, eventually dying in obscurity."

Everyone listened quietly, none speaking.

"Everyone wants to cultivate immortality, to pursue longevity. But…" Pang Xiaolei sighed, "the path of cultivating immortality is full of struggles and dangers." He continued, "You will soon understand that cultivating immortality is not as simple as you imagine. Well, I have other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now."

"Senior Brother, please wait," called out Gao Fei.

"Eh?" Pang Xiaolei stopped and turned to look at Gao Fei. "What is it?"

"I'd like to know, when can we begin cultivating immortality?" Gao Fei inquired. "Didn't they say… after joining Tianyang Sect, we would be given Spell Manuals?"

"Don't rush. First, get to know the situation here. In a few days, someone will distribute the manuals to you," Pang Xiaolei explained. "Anything else?"

Gao Fei shook his head: "That's all."

"Then I'm off," said Pang Xiaolei, striding away.

Gao Fei watched Pang Xiaolei's retreating figure, his brows slowly furrowed.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Xiaoliang noticed that Gao Fei seemed unhappy, "Something on your mind?"

"It's nothing." Gao Fei shook his head, "Let's go, we should clean the house." Gao Fei started walking towards the house, there were some things he couldn't discuss with Zhu Xiaoliang, at least not for now.

After cleaning was done, it was already noon. Everyone found lots of fresh vegetables in the kitchen, and those who knew how to cook started to make meals, while those who didn't helped out. Once the food was ready, everyone sat down together to eat and drink.

After eating their fill, everyone returned to their own rooms to rest.

...

It wasn't until the next day that everyone truly understood what Pang Xiaolei's words meant.

More than two hundred people were scattered, some to the storage room, some to the Elixir Room, others to the Spiritual Medicine Garden, and still others were sent to the library... Gao Fei and Zhu Xiaoliang were unfortunate enough to be assigned to the storage room, responsible for cleaning and garbage disposal, doing dirty and tiring work.

"I came here to cultivate immortality, not to be a janitor!" Zhu Xiaoliang complained.

"Enough." Gao Fei consoled him, "Stop complaining. It's only temporary that we're janitors. Once we become Inner Sect Disciples, Elite Disciples, we will leave this place."

"That's easy to say." Zhu Xiaoliang pouted, "It's not easy to become an Inner Sect Disciple."

"What? You regret it now? Want to leave?"

"Not regret, just frustrated!"

"Bear with it, you need to endure for the sake of avenging your mother."

...

"Hey, what are you two whispering about! Get to work immediately! I'm warning you, don't even think about slacking off, if the Overseer finds out, you're in for it," a shout came from outside.

"We know, we're on our way." Gao Fei pulled Zhu Xiaoliang outside, "Beggars can't be choosers."

Actually, Gao Fei was also feeling down, but to get the manual for repairing his Dantian, he had to bear it.

The storage room had over a hundred disciples, responsible for cleaning the entire Sect. Anyone caught slacking off would be severely punished. Not only was the work exhausting, but the food was also subpar, almost devoid of oil and water, let alone meat.

After a day's work, Gao Fei and Zhu Xiaoliang dragged their exhausted bodies back to their place, had a simple meal, and the two went straight to bed to rest.

They endured such days for half a month until the turnaround they had been struggling to wait for finally appeared.

"Here, this is the most basic Cultivation Manual, take it and start your practice." The Overseer handed two manuals to Gao Fei and Zhu Xiaoliang, "Practice well, and strive to reach the Qi Gathering Stage soon. Then you won't have to work as janitors anymore." With a few words of instruction, the Overseer left, humming a tune with his hands behind his back.

"Finally, we can start cultivating." Zhu Xiaoliang was thrilled.

Gao Fei couldn't wait to open the manual, but after a few moments, his brows furrowed. It was a very ordinary Cultivation Manual, as commonplace as they come, teaching only how to sense the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, with no connection to repairing the Dantian.

After longing for half a month, to end up with such a useless manual was truly depressing.

"Gao Fei, you don't look happy?" Zhu Xiaoliang asked puzzledly, "After waiting so many days, we can finally cultivate, why aren't you happy?"

"No." Gao Fei shook his head, "I'm very happy, extremely happy, so happy I want to cry." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Want to cry?" Zhu Xiaoliang laughed, "When people are happy, they laugh, but when you're happy, you want to cry, you really are an oddball."

"Hey, you two, stop talking, hurry up and clean." A supervisory staff member shouted, "If you want to chat, do it after you get back in the evening."

"Even an old ox plowing the field needs to rest when tired, but we don't even get a chance to rest, we're worse off than an ox," Zhu Xiaoliang said bitterly, "It seems there's no time to cultivate during the day, we can only wait to do it after we get back at night."

It's truly difficult for an ordinary disciple to advance to the Inner Sect, a lot of hard work is required.

Working during the day, using the time at night to rest and cultivate, it's not easy at all.

The reason the Tianyang Sect was so harsh on ordinary disciples was to stimulate their potential, ensuring that those who emerged successfully would be talents, receiving key nurturing from the Sect.

Different standpoints lead to different perspectives.

In any place, small figures always end up on the receiving end of hardship, to avoid this, one must strive to become a significant figure!
