"Manager? When did our sect have such a manager?" The beautiful female cultivator with a domineering personality was the first to speak.
"Yes!" Several other less beautiful female cultivators looked puzzled.
The female cultivator with eyes like stars suddenly exclaimed, "I remember now. It seems that almost two months ago, the mountain gate manager was killed by Senior Uncle Cong Yue of the Second Sword Edge. Later, a new one was replaced. I think it is this one."
"The mountain gate manager?!" One of the female cultivators, who had a soft appearance but a very tough tone, said, "You must be kidding, right? Are those in our inner gate deacon hall so arrogant?"
"I heard that he is the new outer sect manager."
"There are so many people in the inner gate deacon hall, and you still go to the outer gate to look for it?"
"Haha, I see. Those weaklings in the Deacon Hall must be scared. No one is willing to do that?"
"What a pity!" sighed the beautiful lady with a queen-like look.
"Indeed, I think his bearing alone is not inferior to that of our Senior Master He Lingtian from the First Sword Divine Sword Peak."
"Alright, Chu Xinxin, even though Master He is deeply in love with Lin Wanwan, you can't compare him to just anyone. How can a person like him, a stranger from the outer sect and a mountain gate steward who could be killed at any moment, compare to Master He?" The sisterhood, which had just been harmonious, was now in danger of falling apart because of one man. "If you keep this up, I'll turn against you."
"Tsk!" Chu Xinxin curled her lips. "Cao Lanlan, even if you continue to protect Lin Wanwan, she won't hesitate to use you when she needs to. If she really treats you as a sister, she should give you a spot in the Samsara Secret Realm this time. She has five spots. Don't you feel ashamed that you are not among all five?"
"you……"

Zhou Yanzhi glanced at the mission screen, sighed inwardly, and leisurely continued on his way to the Deacon Hall. The missions in the mission hall were low-level, and the rewards were just a waste of time for him and his children; the high-level ones were too risky and had no corresponding rewards.
After passing through half of the mission hall, the first hall on the right is the Deacon Hall.
The Deacon Hall has many separate meeting rooms for the deacons from various peaks of the sect to discuss matters.
Zhou Yanzhi was waiting for someone, so he just found a seat in the main hall of the Deacon Hall. He didn't ask for the tea offered to the disciples, but took out his own tea and drank it by himself.
"Hey, let me tell you something interesting." Not long after Zhou Yanzhi sat down, he heard the low chirping of several people from the rest room of the disciples in the Deacon Hall who were responsible for entertaining the deacons.
"What's going on? Look how excited you are. It's so interesting."
"That's really interesting. I heard about it from my roommate. Didn't my roommate's fellow villager get a cleaning assignment at Imperial College?"
"Imperial Academy! I heard the missions there are easy and the spirit stones paid are high. As long as we can avoid those little devils, it will be the best place to get the best deal on this cleaning mission."
"That's not all. It's said that those who can go to the Imperial Academy to carry out missions are all carefully selected by the sect. In the future, they all have the hope of becoming the elders' personal disciples."
"Alas! What a pity, not everyone can have such an opportunity."
"Hey, are you guys going to listen to what I have to say?"
"Listen, listen, listen, you say."
"Hey, let me tell you, this is quite interesting. You all know about the replacement of the head of our mountain gate, right?"
"Everyone knows this. Our sect's second-best swordsman is now famous throughout the entire Southern Wilds."
"How could he not be famous? There's a person who betrayed his master to climb the social ladder, kidnapped the elders' descendants, and conspired with the demon sect to plot against the sect's supreme elder. I'm too embarrassed to leave the sect now, and I'm too embarrassed to wear the sect uniform when I go out. It's so embarrassing!"
"We are embarrassed, but the one who betrayed the sect is said to be living a comfortable life in the Burning Heaven Immortal Sect."
"Does Sect Master Meng dare to kill? As soon as he does, others will accuse him of murdering someone to silence him. As someone from the righteous sect, he's colluding with the demon sect."
"Alright, alright, let's listen to Junior Brother Huang's story."
"That's right. Junior Brother Huang won't tell you later. It will make you anxious to death."
"...Uh, actually this is a bit offensive." Junior Brother Huang was conflicted. After being reminded by several senior brothers, he suddenly felt that if he let the gossip out, he might be in big trouble.
"No, Junior Brother Huang, you really have to stop talking. If you say it, we will never tell anyone else."
☆
"Well, it is said that this matter has been known to everyone in the Imperial Academy. But the Sect Master and Elder Tu don't seem to want to intervene, so everyone just lets it go." Junior Brother Huang said cautiously.
"Oh shit, Sect Master? Elder Tu? The Elder Tu you're talking about isn't the Grand Elder, is he?"
"Um."
"Oh my god, why does this sound like I'm going to poke a hole in the sky?"
"Hehe, the more it is like this, the more interesting it is."
"That's right. Let's swear not to tell anyone else."
"Uh..." Junior Brother Huang lowered his voice even more. "What I want to say is that our new mountain gate steward, Steward Zhou, for some unknown reason, has arranged for all four of his children, all under the age of twelve, to enter the Imperial Academy."
"It seems that this Manager Zhou has an incredible background."
"Yeah, as far as I know, those who can go to the Imperial Academy are at least the Grand Deacon of the Inner Sect."
Junior Brother Huang's face was filled with confusion. "It's more than just outrageous. Steward Zhou's four children are said to be quadruplets, two boys and two girls. His eldest daughter has only been gone for a month, and she's already beaten up every troublemaker in the Imperial Academy who dared to challenge them. It's said that because it was arranged by the Sect Master, none of the other Peak Masters or Stewards have stood up for their own juniors."
