The Peak Head waved his hand dismissively.
"You succeeded because of your own talent."
He studied Han Yu’s aura again.
The Moon Blood Qi refinent had also progressed well. Nearly seventy percent of the core energy had transford. The Peak Head knew exactly what that ant. Han Yu had been cultivating the Moon Conquering Divine Art diligently.
He did not object to it.
In fact, he approved.
The combination of the two techniques would only strengthen Han Yu’s foundation. And the stronger Han Yu beca, the greater the future of the Kidney Peak. Satisfied, the Peak Head reached into his storage ring.
SHUA
A set of robes appeared in his hand.
He tossed them lightly toward Han Yu.
Han Yu caught them as his eyes widened slightly.
These were sect robes.
But they were different from the ones he wore.
The cloth was still the deep blood-red color of the Slaughtered Moon Divine Blood Sect.
However, the sleeves carried intricate icy blue patterns representing the Kidney Peak.
More importantly, a crest was embroidered on the chest.
The personal crest of the Second Kidney Peak Head.
Han Yu looked up in surprise.
He had not expected this so soon.
The Peak Head spoke calmly.
"You are now worthy to wear these."
"These robes represent my personal disciple."
Han Yu bowed deeply.
"This disciple thanks the Peak Head."
The old man nodded.
"When you beco an inner court disciple, the robes will change accordingly. For now, these are sufficient."
Han Yu held the robes carefully.
Even though they were technically still outer court robes, the crest changed everything. Within the sect hierarchy, a personal disciple of a Peak Head held extraordinary status.
Many elders would treat such a person with respect.
The Peak Head then continued.
"There is another matter."
Han Yu looked up.
The Peak Head said,
"I saw your ssage."
Han Yu imdiately understood what he ant.
The slaves.
"You may bring them to the Second Kidney Peak."
Han Yu felt genuine relief.
"Thank you, Peak Head."
The old man continued.
"I have already arranged a courtyard for you."
"It is separate from this residence."
Han Yu nodded.
That was expected.
The Peak Head’s personal residence was restricted. Only a few individuals were allowed inside. Slaves and attendants would never be permitted there. But within the main area of the Kidney Peak, every inner court disciple possessed their own residence.
A personal courtyard.
Since Han Yu was a personal disciple, such an arrangent was only natural.
"You may move your belongings there as well," the Peak Head added.
Han Yu cupped his hands again.
"This disciple will arrange it imdiately."
The Peak Head nodded. "Take one day and sort out anything you need outside the peak." His gaze turned serious. "After that, remain here. You must focus entirely on cultivation."
His eyes briefly glanced toward Han Yu’s core.
"You will not leave this peak again until your core has fully transford."
Han Yu understood the aning.
The conversion of his Blood Qi into Moon Blood Qi and the continued growth of Abyssal Frost Qi. Until those processes stabilized, his cultivation needed absolute focus.
Han Yu bowed once more.
"This disciple understands."
The Peak Head gave a final nod.
"Good."
Han Yu turned to leave.
He knew the next day would be important.
He had to retrieve ng Jueyan, Xuan Qing, Chitterfang, and everything stored in his cave. After that, his life would change completely. Once he settled into the Kidney Peak, he would disappear from public sight for a long ti.
Until the day he erged strong enough to stand on his own.
Han Yu left the personal residence of the Second Kidney Peak Head shortly afterward.
The icy blue trimd robes of the Kidney Peak rested neatly on his shoulders, the fabric heavier and more refined than the simple outer court robes he had worn for years.
As he stepped out into the open paths of the peak, several disciples who were passing by imdiately noticed him.
At first, they did not pay much attention.
A new disciple appearing on the peak was not unusual. Every few months, a handful of talented cultivators would be transferred from other parts of the sect to begin their training under the guidance of one of the elders.
But then soone noticed the crest.
The small emblem stitched onto Han Yu’s chest.
The crest of the Second Kidney Peak Head.
The effect was imdiate.
The disciples froze.
For a mont, none of them spoke. A few stared openly. Others blinked in disbelief, as if wondering whether their eyes were deceiving them.
Then the whispers began.
"Is that...?"
"That crest..."
"That’s the Peak Head’s personal mark..."
"Who is he?"
"I’ve never seen him before."
Han Yu walked calmly along the stone path, pretending not to notice.
But in truth, he was aware of everything.
His Eight Emotions Lotus Soul Core quietly absorbed the energy flowing from the surrounding disciples. Grey surprise energy poured toward him in steady streams.
Dozens of wisps.
Then dozens more.
The amount was not enormous individually, but the sheer number of people reacting at once made it noticeable.
Han Yu knew exactly what was happening. Until now, only Elder Kunshan and his two disciples knew about him. Which ant the news had not spread yet. But that was about to change.
By allowing him to walk openly across the Kidney Peak wearing those robes, the Peak Head was sending a ssage.
A subtle announcent.
A soft launch.
Han Yu almost smiled at the thought.
By the ti he returned to the peak later, most of the disciples would already know about the new personal disciple of the Peak Head.
And rumors would spread even further beyond the Kidney Peak.
Still, none of the disciples dared approach him. They only watched from a distance. So were still stunned by the sudden appearance of this mysterious senior brother. Others simply knew better than to interfere.
Within the Slaughtered Moon Divine Blood Sect, disturbing soone while they were moving with clear purpose could easily be interpreted as an insult.
