Theoretically speaking, there are known to be nine Immortal Cauldron Palaces, with one located in Phoenix Tail Town, and each of the Eight Great Magic Sect Grotto Heavens having one as well. It’s said that the Alchemy Sect Leader, i Guyu, has been in seclusion within the Immortal Cauldron Palace in the Immortal Pot Grotto Heaven in recent years.
Since i Guyu was ntioned in the chat, He Kao couldn’t help but ask, "Wasn’t Elder i supposed to start work at Qi Yuan? When is she actually coming?"
Jiang Daozhen glanced at him, "Did you purposely go to Nanhua for a business trip just to avoid her, right?"
He Kao hurriedly explained, "Last year’s incident still makes uneasy. If Elder i goes to Qi Yuan, that place might beco the center of turmoil again. I’m afraid the identity of Hidden Moth will be exposed..."
Jiang Daozhen waved his hand, "No need to say more. I know what you’re thinking, but many things in this world cannot be escaped just because you want to." He paused, "i Guyu believes this is her opportunity to break the gate, and others can’t dissuade her."
Gu Chun seed to console him, "This matter is confidential, and few know about it. The Ancestral Hall has issued a gag order to prevent it from spreading. If soone hears the news and goes to Qi Yuan, the Ancestral Hall will take care of it."
He Kao: "I’m aware of the Ancestral Hall’s arrangents, but if the news really leaks, who knows what might happen? You would only be able to deal with it afterward."
Jiang Daozhen glared at him, "So you plan to stay far away, but even if you hide in Nanhua, there’s no trouble? i Guyu wants to go to Qi Yuan, and just because you’re hiding in Nanhua, she can’t go there?"
Li Xiuyuan: "You always talk about Xiao Kao for what reason, the root of this matter is with you, Old Ghost Jiang! You dare talk about others while you’re pursuing proof of Tier Seven cultivation, and sent your precious disciple to work at Qi Yuan, what’s your intention?"
Jiang Daozhen: "I’ll call Wei Luo back in a few days!"
Li Xiuyuan: "Too late, the ihua Immortal has already made up her mind. She believes this is the opportunity, and no one can dissuade her."
He Kao: "I encountered a stranger cultivator at Qi Yuan Railway Station so ti ago, actually a Jianghu wanderer. I’ve inford Qian Guran, have you all heard about it?"
Gu Chun: "I’ve long been aware. Regardless of whether they are Magic Sect disciples or Jianghu wanderers, going to Qi Yuan is their freedom. If he cos for Elder i, then the Ancestral Hall will take action; for now, Elder i hasn’t gone yet."
He Kao: "When exactly is Elder i going to start working?"
Li Xiuyuan: "You’re overthinking it, it’s quite simple, do you not have any basic knowledge anymore? Your company’s campus recruitnt and job fair generally occur at what tis?"
He Kao: "Spring recruitnt and fall recruitnt..." Only then did he suddenly realize.
What is referred to as spring recruitnt and fall recruitnt is actually winter recruitnt and sumr recruitnt, corresponding to the winter and sumr holidays. Sumr vacation is graduation season; major companies recruit graduates mainly during this ti. Spring recruitnt is mostly job fairs but also recruits graduates.
Like when He Kao initially joined during an interview before the Spring Festival and formally started work after the festival. Now, it is late December, and according to the normal pace, i Guyu should wait until after the Spring Festival to start working.
He Kao, involved in on-site technical service for Huishiming Brand, should wrap up everything by the Spring Festival unless he finds another excuse to change locations for business trips; otherwise, he must return to work at Qi Yuan after the festival.
As the sky darkened, He Kao had a dinner appointnt, so he was about to depart, but Li Xiuyuan and Gu Chun asked him for help, respectively giving them a ride.
He Kao couldn’t light up the map of the outside world, so the group first returned from the Hidden Moth World to the Flower Shocking Grotto Heaven, then left the Grotto Heaven for Phoenix Tail Town, and reentered the Hidden Moth World.
Gu Chun wanted to go to Qi Yuan, which was very convenient.
The place Li Xiuyuan wanted to go was rather special; it was actually the world’s highest peak, Mount Everest. He Kao shook his head, "I’ve never been there either, when scouting the route, I avoided it."
Li Xiuyuan: "Then just take to the place closest to the Southern Base Camp."
At the foot of Mount Everest, there are two so-called camps, northern and southern. The Northern Base Camp is within Eastern Country’s territory, strictly managed, and the difficulty of climbing from this side is relatively high.
The Southern Base Camp is located in Niger’s territory, managent is more relaxed or even chaotic, extrely comrcialized, and it’s a gathering place for extre mountaineering enthusiasts worldwide, offering various services provided by locals.
When He Kao lit up the map, although he avoided mountains with overly high altitudes and harsh natural conditions, he had crossed the border to nearby areas, opening a passage to send Elder Li to a place closest to the Southern Base Camp.
When the two elders proposed this request, Jiang Daozhen’s face didn’t look good. He didn’t directly address these two but said to He Kao, "Hidden Moth has such ability, yet the Magic Sect has no record of it, do you know the reason?"
He Kao didn’t know about the Magic Sect lacking this record; he had just heard about it from Old Man Jiang, so he answered, "I was just about to ask you, sir."
Jiang Daozhen: "Based on my deduction, this matter was a secret even back then, and even the other Seven Great Magic Sects didn’t know. The Hidden Moth Sect must have had a reason for it, securing divine techniques of creation, it must not be easily shown to others!"
Li Xiuyuan interjected, "Old Ghost Jiang, are you implying to and Elder Gu?"
Gu Chun also said, "We three have made an oath, absolutely not to harm Xiao Kao, nor will we leak this matter."
Jiang Daozhen turned his head, "Indeed, I’m implying you two. I’m not worried about you leaking it, but if you keep casually using Xiao Kao’s Hidden Moth ability, sooner or later soone will notice the flaw and start guessing.
For instance, Fabre’s ilk, who knows if there’s an expert among them who has cultivated the Lingxi skill?" Then he turned to He Kao, "With such an ability, if you started a courier or logistics company, your business would surely be great, but you must never do that.
